"Wait, Jungkook got dumped? How come, I don't know." Taehyung asked, his clueless face searching their smiley eyes for an answer.
"I didn't exactly get dumped, you all just overthink." Jungkook said, facing Taehyung with a little uneasy face.
"We overthink? Look who's talking." Namjoon said.
"I? Whatever. She came straight into my face and told me that I'm being over-protective." Jungkook said and everyone's eyes widened.
"So, she dumped you because you cared too much, damn, that shit hurt. But I hope she'll be back to you." Taehyung said, throwing his hand in air, stretching out his arms.
Jungkook shook his head and went back to his phone, not bothering to stretch the conversation further.
"I'm glad you're not friendzoned, Jungkook.... I had a thought you were, seriously. It's a scary thing to be in" Jimin said.
"And when have you been friendzoned,ever in life?" Namjoon asked and everyone laughed because it was a well known fact that Jimin was impatient when it came to getting girls and never hesitated to take action.
"Never, but I've heard sob stories, you know." Jimin replied, shrugging.
"Really? I don't care but, Jimin, lemme tell you, Taehyung and y/n became friends." Jin said with a smile.
Namjoon jumped out of the conversation, as he got busy talking to staff members.
"I'm glad, Taehyung. I'm happy. Now, Give me her cell number." Jimin said, everyone chuckled except Taehyung.
Taehyung froze for a few seconds, but nobody seemed to notice. He had realised that you weren't a person who'd be interested in having a fling with Park Jimin or anyone, in general.
But then again, he thought that he wasn't someone who should decide.
She's too pure, like a rose bud, gentle and meek.
"God, Jimin, I trust you, she's my friend, don't break her fragile heart, okay?" Taehyung said.
"Fragile heart?" All of the boys said in unison, then burst out laughing at Taehyung's not-so-english-but-so-cute accent.
"Ugh, she taught me this word, anyway, I don't think she's the usual
ok-you're-hot-lets-fuck type of girl, you might know, by now, I guess?" Taehyung said, calmly, not bothering to provide facts that would assist his words.
"Bro, you gotta be careful, if you actually wanna do this." Namjoon added, making an odd face to Jimin.
"Taehyung you're thinking that way because she's not swooning over you even after living with you, and that's seriously, unbelievable, to be honest." Jin said.
"I feel like I should take a chance, I've been single for a while now and she seems really tasty." Jimin said, glancing at Taehyung who had gotten busy with his phone, searching for your contact, unwillingly.
"Oh no, wait. Taehyung didn't you say, the other day that she's been fangirling over us?" Jungkook chirped, sipping on his smoothie.
"Oh, right, in the GC, Yoongi didn't even react, if she knew, her heart would break already haha" Jin said and everyone looked at Jimin, purely out of coincidence.
"What, why are you looking at me?" Jimin said before he realised, he couldn't date you if you're a fan.
Taehyung sighed.
"I'm sorry Tae, I thought I could help her." Jimin said, cupping his cheeks, trying to make a babyface.
"Help her? " Jin and Jungkook said in unison, resting their hands on their waist to tease Jimin.u
Taehyung laughed at Jimin, punching his arm.
"Or help yourself?" Namjoon and Taehyung said in unison and everyone burst out laughing including Jimin covering his face.
"Even I wished you two ended with you marrying her." Taehyung said, with a smile, "until yesterday." he whispered to himself, knowing that his words didn't coincide with his emotional state.
He felt unusually uncomfortable when Jimin talked about dating you or anyone saying that they're drawn to you but he didn't know what he should do about it.

All the days in Taehyung's house now seemed less awkward, given that you had been living there for quite a while. You had started dressing in Taehyung's clothes and he willingly, rather, he had compelled you to borrow some more under the statement "I'm a fashionable person and you're my experiment, just wear them." He had said. You looked like a kitten wrapped in a full size duvet but you didn't mind because you looked "cute" according to a self-proclaimed "fashion king".
Sometimes you smiled at his childish acts around Yeontan. You watched the boys and him doing variety of activities in RUN episodes and you couldn't help but be fascinated by every member's talents. But you always wondered how they managed such a tough schedule since the day you found out Taehyung's schedule.
You were spending alot of time watching the BTS content that you had missed for all the seven years but then, it seemed odd because you were practically staying at Taehyung's. Also because when he was home, he seemed to be your friend. It was like you were living with a person who had a personality just the person you watched on the platforms.
You did not feel odd because they were famous and you liked all of them, but because you never thought it was easy to be friends with people who were as much famous and widely known to everyone in the world, except for you, of course.
You found hilarious facts about them and saw them winning awards and winning life, in general. It made you feel so small and unworthy of the treatment you were getting by Taehyung. You had gotten to know more about Taehyung, about certain lows in his life that he had never mentioned to you, himself. You didn't want to talk about them, seeing that he wasn't a person who would spend time talking about past instead of making memories.
You decided to stream their music constantly through out the day as you read your books.
You listened to their solo works.
You had made a Weverse account and after discovering VLIVE, the hidden crazy fangirl was jumping out from you.
You sticked to official YT channels of Bighit Entertainment before you could watch channels of fans because you didn't consider yourself qualified enough.
Everyday you were making progress into your knowledge about BTS and they were slowly, unknowingly healing you and your messed up mental health.
You met Taehyung everyday when he would come to eat with you. You talked to him about how nice fans on the Weverse are, you collected the ARMYs posts to show them to Taehyung who ultimately posted them in their GC. You did this because you thought you were in a position where you could share the love of ARMYs to BTS in simplest way.
You intentionally showed Taehyung Jimin's pictures that were on the internet, to find out if they really were dating. You wholeheartedly shipped them.
Sometimes you fangirled about the members to him and he would just chuckle and take the compliments on their behalf.
There were times, at the studio, he texted you when BTS would be filming something, or dressing up, or during vocal practices, he would record other members and randomly send them to you and waited for your fangirl-ish response.
There were days when he wouldn't see you at all. But then, both of you watched Itaewon Class, together, he was sulky when you had streamed the telecast and had broken the promise to wait for him. As a punishment, he didn't give you any spoilers from RUN episode they were filming next day.
What a child heart, you thought.
It was wonderful, both of you really had become good friends, in span of few days.
There were times when you would show embarassing moments of him from the past, on YT or on VLive and he'd tell you interesting stories.
You both played with Yeontan alot, by now, Yeontan was familiar to you and he liked spending time with you even when Taehyung wasn't home.
A/n
I hope everyone is safe and healthy.
