BANGTAN ENTERTAINMENT
Loud foot steps was heard across hall way.
" Is he here? "
" Yes sir, he is in his practice now " Both were striking on their way to the practice room.
" What were you doing when he went out alone? Your are his manager, remember? "
" Sorry sir " the manager looked worried more than scared.
" I'm a goddamn CEO of BANGTAN ENTERTAINMENT I can't babysit all idols. God these young people these days are so frustrating " irritation was seen in his tone. They both reached the practice room. The manager opened the door for the CEO to enter. On seeing the CEO everyone freezed still.
" JEON JUNGKOOK!! " the CEO's voice blasted across the room. Everyone looked scared. Jungkook came walking towards the CEO with a sacred look on his face. " Yes sir...wha... "
" Are you out of your mind!! " he started shouting on jungkook's face " What were you thinking? I told you not to gain more attention, and yet you went out in public without your manager? You have any idea what you did!! "
jungkook lowered his head and his voice was just barely audible " I'm sorry Mr.Bang my mistake I won't do something like that again " the manager looked at him worried " Sorry sir, jungkook just went out to get some inspirations, it's the fans who started swarming in. I looked into it sir, turns out there are fans who would just sit and wait in the cafe at front all day to see their idols. It's them who started it sir. "
" We can't blame them... that's why I'm asking him to be careful, he's not a kid anymore. Just tell him to act like one. " The CEO fumed out of the room. Jungkook let out a breath he wasn't realised holding all this time.
" Sorry hyung I got you in trouble again. "
" Don't be. You know him. It's all right. Just be careful ok? Atleast tell me where you are going next time. We can't risk it, you are a top star now everyone's eyes on you. We need to be extra careful. Small mistake will ruin your reputation. "
" Sure hyung, I will, I'm sorry..." jungkook had great respect on his Hejin hyung, and Hejin loved jungkook like his own brother. He has been taking care of him since he joined the company. He was just 11 when he became a trainee. The company discovered him after he has been rejected in an audition for a reality show.
Though, he got rejected no one could deny his amazing voice. The CEO maybe a jerk but he has good eyes for talents. He brought jungkook in as a trainee. Trained him for almost 4 years. He got debuted for solo when he was 15. He started working since he was a kid. Growing under a spotlight maybe seem magical for the ones who look from the outside. But not for the one who's behind it.
He looks so bright to others but for him everything around him is dark. He used to spend most times staying in the company. Practicing, recording, or working on some new songs. That was his world. That was all his world. He never did what normal teens do. Hanging out with friends, going to a coffee shop, watching movies or playing games.
He never had time for all this because of his always packed busy schedule, he doesn't have a lot of friends too. After schedules are too tired for even to walk, sometimes it'll go on till 2 in the morning.
All his hardwork did paid him off. Right now, he was one of the most famous and handsome idol in Korea. He love his job more than a job it's his passion his dream. This is what he dreamt for all those years. All those blood, sweat, and tears brought him where he is now.
But, still sometimes he feels empty and even sometimes he would think how would it be if he was not famous, if he was not a singer. That question, sometimes scares him, because this is who he is, without all this he feels like nothing, if it was all gone he's afraid that he don't know who he is anymore.
But, there is someone who can make him feel complete and forget about all that bothers him. His existence is the only reason that keeps Jungkook together for all these years, even in his hard times he was there for him.
Jungkook finished his practice and went out to get some air. His face got bright like a sunshine when he save someone waving at him from the balcony. he went towards that person. The floor was pretty high and had a great view. Well, there was two great views, the city at the back and a boxy warm smile welcoming jungkook.
" Hey gukkie, is your practice over? "
" Yeah...just now. "
" It must be tiring, right? with the comeback and all "
" Yea...yea...right. What are you doing here don't you have practice too? "
" No... actually I'm off for a day "
" Wait, they're giving you a day off. They don't even let me go out for a few minutes. Not fair " jungkook made a pouty lips which made Taehyung laugh.
" Aw! you are so cute when you pout. " Taehyung turned his focus towards the city view again.
" Hyung, umm...are you free this Saturday? "
" Yea I guess, my MV shooting was almost over and my comeback is after two months. Why? What do you have in mind? "
" I was thinking about going somewhere. The first snow is near and...you know somewhere like to Namsan Tower. They said it's a place that people liked to visit on the day of first snow so..." Taehyung just looked at him in silent " I mean you don't have to if you have work. I'm ...it's just I'm not that close to anyone so... I thought maybe I'll go with you if that's ok... "
" Of course, I'll go with you pick me up in my dorm. " taehyung said with a big smile on his face. Jungkook never expected him to agree. His cheeks turned a shade of red. " Sure then...I'll see you on Saturday. I'll just...I'll just go back to practice. See ya. " Jungkook waved goodbye for which taehyung nodded his head fast with his big boxy smile. Jungkook was so whipped at the sight.
Taehyung was also an solo artist in the BANGTAN ENTERTAINMENT. He was already a trainee before Jungkook came. Debuted 2 years before Jungkook did. He was 15 too at that time, Jungkook was just a 13 year old trainee kid. Both were young and they felt comfortable around eachother. So, they became friends. They were very close even after debuted. They used to sneak out of their dorms. Going out for a late night snack. Being scolded by Mr.Bang for making mistakes. They were both basically crime partners.
Taehyung helped Jungkook a lot, took care of him, taught him how to behave, how to share, played games with him, made him feel comfortable and safe after coming far away from his parents in such young age.
Taehyung was also young at that time but he protected him like his big hyung. Jungkook has a special place in his heart for his Taehyungie. No one can ever take that place. Kind of a respect he had on him.
But, things got different when Jungkook turned 18, atleast for Jungkook. He started feeling something for his hyung. Something more than just between brothers. He started developing feelings for him. But, he never show that out. More than he want to, he's afraid of losing the bond he has now with his Taehyungie.
Everytime he talks to him he'll easily get shy. He's afraid that his hyung might see it and think he's weird or the worst he might hate him. Even though he knows that he'll never get him, everytime he'll just dream of hugging him, kissing him, being his boyfriend.
He was confused when he was young. Because, he thought it's weird for having feelings for someone of same gender. But, as he aged he understood his true feelings for his hyung.
Love is cruel isn't it? We fall for someone we can never have. It hurts real bad when we fall from a high but we want to do it anyways. No one escapes from it, no one can resist it. Jungkook is no exception. He's falling for someone who he shouldn't. Will he be pushed down or be held?
