A List of Firsts (How it All Started with Jennie's Ruthless Confidence)

Start from the beginning
                                        

So he stayed with because it was the only thing she allowed him to do for her.

They were in the floor of his room, playing monopoly when Jennie brought it up. "So I... "

Namjoon nudged her foot his own. "What?"

"I figured since I'm on bed rest for the next two weeks, I need to make it up to my fans." Her words came out in rapid fires but her expression said there were more she could not swallow to say.

"So take a rest and nurse yourself back."

"You're not helping." She scowled.

"What do you wanna do? "

"I know you're busy with your next album, and I don't really need too much instructions. Maybe some basic ones for producing? I'm a fast learner. "Her entire cheeks were flaming now. It always hurt her to seek other people's time because she knew how precious time was in their line of work.

"You want to produce a song for your fans." Namjoon stated rather than clarify.

She nodded tersely. "I already wrote my lyrics, and I can play guitar but I'm useless when it comes to the more technical stuff. We were off-limits from the studio unless we need to record something."

"Of course, I'll teach you." Namjoon swept the board with his left feet and tackled Jennie to the floor. He remembered to late that she was injured and by then, he had an angry bruise under the skin near his armpit which his girlfriend liked to squeeze as a retaliation.

The next two weeks were spent with Jennie visiting his studio at 9 am and leaving at 5 pm. He got so used to seeing her lying stomach down on his couch, macbook and the various equipment he lent her spread around with her music sheets that when she returned back to her regular schedule, he still found himself checking her back in habit then ending up disappointed after he realized she was not there.

Sometimes, his band mates would be there and talked to her. Hoseok seemed to take extra liking to her and even gave her two hours of his time, just providing tips but not really intervening with her work. Taehyung and Jimin especially liked her and could not stop teasing Namjoon for being such a whipped housewife.

He did ask her if her own band mates ever wondered where she spent her time and she told him they knew where exactly but what about her company?

"As long as I'm still bringing them money and not causing more scandal than before, they could care less."

"And are you?" Namjoon plopped down on his back beside her in the floor. He turned his head to the side, his cheek pressed in the carpet beneath. He tucked a loose hair behind her ears. "Creating more scandal?"

She scoffed, hands still flying over her keyboards as she laid finishing touches to her first ever song. "You'd like that, wouldn't you? BTS Leader Rap Monster Caught Lip Locked with Jennie Kim in a Gangnam Club. "

Namjoon's lips curled in burning distaste. "Except I would not like to come out with you using Rap Monster as a name."

"I'll remember to always refer you as Rap Monster in future interviews." She snickered, and there was no doubt she would.

Namjoon moaned in distress. "But you don't go clubbing now, right? You used to go all the time. "

"I don't need to, now."

His chest fluttered. He doubted it ever stopped since the day he held her close for the first time. "What changed?" he asked, softly.

"I have you now."

It was muttered in such casual way but it still created the impact it sought. Namjoon did not know he was beaming until Jennie stopped working and regarded him with resignation and fondness alike.
