"jungkook what were you two doing just now???",J-hope hyung asked me keeping his hand on my shoulder.
"nothing...",I said and walked away My cheeks and ears were getting red ,then I sat in the car with other members.
(author's pov)
"I saw it all okay, you kissed y/n didn't you...??",jhope said teasing JK.
all the members heard this looked at jk.
"what??? jungkook you kissed y/n?",Jimin asked shocked as hell..
"n...no no , hyung she was going to fall and I just caught her that's why it happened.",jungkook explained to members.
"wooh.....our golden maknae you are getting bolder these days ...huh🤭🤭🤭",jin said teasing jungkook.
"no .....no hyung I swear ,I just helped her nothing else,trust me tae hyung ", jungkook said looking at taehyung who was not speaking anything .
"it's okay that's your choice anyway,but be careful army still thinks that you are dating IU ",taehyung said.
"hyung trust me nothing like that happened, I don't even like her ",JK said.
"ok.....it's your choice who you like and who you don't ",taehyung said.
(next day album release )
"do you think y/n will come here??",Jin asked RM.
"I think so...I told her manager that, how important is this press conference and album release event",Namjoon said while the makeup artist was putting makeup on his face in the green room.
other members were also getting ready for the press conference.
"but I don't get it why she avoids reporters and interviews ",Jin said.
"don't know....but I saw some of her old interviews...and promotional events videos on YouTube ",RM said.
"they are from 3 years ago ,in last three years she haven't done anything like that.
she seems to be avoiding all this",V said taking jin's ice cream and he resisted the ww3 went on for 5 minutes but JIn gave his brother the ice cream at the end.
"stop fighting for a ice cream you both",Suga said passing by.
"well you don't know it's a huge issue that she avoids reporters",suga said.
"if she comes today you ,know it will be a trending topic on social media ",V said.
"hmm...but if she doesn't, she will be tagged as an arrogant celebrity again " ,suga said.
"I think she was involved in some huge scandal 3 years ago....but her PR team was able to suppress the situation and after some time everything was normal like nothing happened ",v said.
"what scandal???",Rm asked curiously.
and other members looked at him curiously.
"I don't remember...I just heard that it was sort of a heated argument between some reporters and her,she was angry and grabbed their camera and smashed it on the ground , but after few days that news was taken down from all social media platforms",v said.
"how come you know this.....and we all don't?",Jin asked.
"my ex girlfriend was her fan, and I also started to like her songs",v said.
"ooh....like that",jin said.
"you loved her a lot didn't you??",suga said.
"yup.....but who could've thought she will leave me because she was insecure and jealous, because of those rumours ",v said.
"I understand...forget it now", suga said .
"forget what??",jungkook said entering in the green room.
"nothing.....",Jin said.
"where are J-hope and jimin?? you three went together right?",Rm asked jungkook.
"yeah ....where are they both?",Jin asked.
"jimin is talking to her wife and J-hope went to use washroom,will be here in few minutes ",Jungkook said.
"ok....it's almost time anyway the reporters and media have already gathered out there",RM said.
.

.
"gosh....y/n is still not here ,even her manager is not picking up the call, we can't delay it anymore. shall we start it first if she comes later she can join it in between ",suga said to bts members.
"yeah.....but I just hope they don't write any negative comments about her ,it will affect our image too",RM said.
"hyung ....I have an idea ,you guys can go and start it ,and when y/n arrives I will come with her so they don't think y/n was avoiding them",jungkook suggested.
"ok....sounds good ,then let's do it , you come with her later ",RM said then they went on the stage and started the event.
while jungkook waited for y/n backstage.
(y/n's pov)
(location:outside the hotel where event is being held)
"y/n ....its already 15 minutes that we are here outside, how long do you plan to sit in the car now,let's just go in the event already started ",misha said to y/n.
"hmmm.....let's go in ..",I spoke finally but I was not ready yet after that incident 3 years ago I have been avoiding these things. but today I was not able to.
No matter how I try I just can't move on, these reporters and media never let me forget those incidents..
but I built up my courage and went in with my sister and two of my staff members.
.
.
.
(backstage)
I entered and saw jungkook playing with his mobile phone.
"Hy where are other members..??",I asked walking towards him.
"already on the stage...if we were waiting for you then this event had to be cancelled today for sure...",Jungkook said looking up from his phone.
I smiled nervously.
"you are even late then jimin hyung.....first person who can beat jiminshii in getting late",JK said laughing.
"sorry...actually..",I tried to say but he said again.
"shall we go ....??",
"umm....yeah",I said hesitantly.
then he walked towards the stage door I followed him but I was still hesistant to go up on the stage I could see all those media reporters sitting there and asking questions to members.
"come..",jungkook said as I was standing at one place still.
"hmm.....",I said and walked towards him.
"don't worry even I was scared first ,and avoided giving speeches but later it was fine",JK said looking at me.
"but...",I wanted to say there is a difference between stage fright and hating those reporters. but I stopped in between.
"oh....please come",he held my hand again and took me on the stage with him.
I don't know why but all that nervousness vanished for me, we went and took our seats after greeting everyone.
and We apologised for being late,but they didn't mind after all he was our most loved golden maknae.😏😏😏
they asked us several questions about album and sudden collab, I told them that how much I liked BTS and saw them as role model. and also that it was a dream collab.
even namjoon and other members praised me and complemented me I was very happy.
it was almost done when a reporter asked me a question.
"y/n my question is for you",x reporter said.
"yes..?",I said.
"like you never attend such events, and you always avoid media and reporters, are you that scared of media ", x reporter asked .
and I was angry ,I was like what do you expect me to do bitch after what you guys did to me and my friend 3 years ago .
I was lost in my thoughts and started getting flashbacks of all that happened 3 years ago.
how they left no effort in torturing him.and emotionally broke him to that extent, that he.....
"y/n ....",jungkook said by patting on my hand.
"hmm....",I said coming out of all those memories.
"sorry I didn't hear you, can you repeat the question???",I asked and pretended that I didn't hear anything.
"y/n why do you avoid interviews and media??",X reporter asked again.
"why do you think that I avoid media??",I asked.
"you never attend your own music launch events,other MV actors do that for you.also after award shows you leave early so that you can avoid it ",she said.
"how do you want me to answer it....😅😅😂😂",I said faking laughter.
"ok look first I am really nervous and introverted kind of person, also I am just a musician I am not a Idol, I don't like being in lime light all the time ,I prefer very quiet type of life otherwise I don't hold any grudges against you guys, you are not my enemies why the hell will I avoid you",I tried handling it smoothly.
and everybody laughed upon my answer.
"but I remember Y/N you did participate in many interviews before, and you are here today after almost 3 years why is that" ,she asked again this time I was really angry but jungkook kept his hand on mine as if he was consoling me.
I sighed and spoke.
"ok look...(I fake laughed again and said) I participated in many interviews before because I was forced to ,by my manager there she is(I said pointing towards misha) but then I begged her to not let me do it😂😂😂 and thankfully she understood my feelings , as for today I was really excited to come here because it was my dream collab okay ofcourse I had to come ",I said.
"but...",she again tried to say but my sister signalled the host to end it.
"ok that was it guys thank you so much for coming here ",the host said and ended the conference.
I got up from there and left as soon as he said that.
(after the event)
(location hotel lobby)
"we literally thought that you would not come here today ",taehyung said.
I smiled nervously.
"ofcourse I had to come.",I said.
"It all went quite well and people are loving the album I am so happy ",Jhope said happily
"yeah y/n you know what, my daughter really likes you she is very excited to meet you",Jin said.
"aww....thank you ,now even I am very excited to meet miss world wide beautiful ",I said. laughing .
"ok....we should leave now...bye y/n,bye misha",RM said and other members also waved at us and started to leave.
This time I held jungkook's hand and stopped him.
he turned back and looked at me ,
then I left his hand and said.
"thanks....",I said.
"for what ?...?",JK asked.
"for pushing me....and encouraging me ,Otherwise I don't think I would have been able to do it today",I said smiling at him.
"oh....welcome ,,anyways don't you call me your highness ofcourse as an emperor it is my duty to help and protect my kingdom's people ,and even you were not that bad today, ",JK said.
"sure...thanks your highness ",I said laughing 😂😂😂😊😊.
"you know what I am quite impressed from you ,you are a good cook and are good at music so I was thinking of promoting you to my special eunuch's position, what do you think ",JK said 😎😎😎 .
"oh....I am very happy to be your eunuch your highness ", I said bowing down again.
he stopped me from bowing down and said.
"you are my special eunuch you don't have to bow down infront of anybody ",He said and we both started laughing.
"jungkook.....?",Jin called jungkook.
then he hugged me out of a sudden and left .
