Practice ended way later than I had thought. When we left the practice room it was already 2 in the afternoon. I sighed as the afternoon sun nearly blinded me. Jhope laughed softly behind me. "Hey what is wrong with your face?" He teased. I turned pink and looked down at my feet as we walked. My thoughts mixed together as jhope spoke to the other members. Was I really falling in love with him? Jhope? The thought of being together with Jhope made me giggle to myself.

"Lex!" V snapped his fingers infront of my face. "HEY!" I said with a shocked face, "V don't do that! You scared me." V simply giggled. "Sorry Hyung." I gave him a confused look. "I'm older than you?" I asked him. He spaced out for a minute then turned to me.

"When is your birthday?" He asked.

"December 31st, 1995" I replied.

"WHAA!!" His rectangle smile turned into a shocked oval, "Mine is December 30th, 1995!"

He began to skip ahead then spun around to face me. He looked like he was going to start flying. "So I should be calling you hyung?" I smiled. V's smile widened. He ran over to Jungkook who was walking with Jimin. He grabbed Jimin and Jungkook in each arm and sang, "I am hyung! He is 31st but I am 30th!" His singing caused everyone to laugh.

Suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder. It was Suga. "Hyung?" I asked. His face was slightly pink. "Did you see a girl walk out of the practice room before you came in?" My breath caught in my throat. Oh no. Oh no. Oh no. I gulped and turned away from him. "N-no" I managed to get out. I looked over at Suga again. He seemed disappointed. "Actually..." I could already tell I was going to regret what I was about to say. "I did. She was really pretty. I could try and find her for you if you want." I was full of fear now. "Really?" He smiled wide. "yes" I answered reluctantly. He patted my back and walked back over to where Rap Mon was walking. I could hear him going on about how excited he was to Rap Mon.

Then I felt another person next to me. The person bumped against my shoulder. "Got time for my request too?" It was Jhope. "Depends" I answered. He turned around and began to talk to the other members. "Aye! Me and Lex are going to go run some errands real quick. We will meet you back at the dorm" The other members aproved and walked on without us. Jhope took out a skull pattern surgical mask and handed it to me. "It will keep your identity concealed a little. Since the new fans don't really know you yet you won't have to worry about them coming up to you." I nodded and put it on. Then he put on a surgical mask similar to mine but his had studs on the sides.

We walked for a few minutes before I felt Jhope tug on my shirt. He pulled me into a street fashion shop and went into the girl's section. I froze as he turned towards me and winked. "Pick something and put it on." He said to me. I shook my head frantically. "I'll get caught!" i whispered harshly, "No one can know about me!" He patted my head to reassure me and pulled out a pair of sun glasses from his pocket. He put them on and called over a sales woman.

"Escuse me" He said to the young girl, "Can you help my friend find something that will suit her?" The girl looked me up and down before turning back to Jhope. "I think you want the men's section." She pointed to the opposite side of the shop. Jhope sighed and walked behind me. I gasped as he pulled my shirt from behind to show my figure through the clothes. The girl bowed and apologized for her error. I blushed bright red and bowed back. The young girl dragged me around the store, looking for anything that would look good on me. Then she took me back to the dressing rooms and forced me into the clothing. Before I could leave the dressing room she pulled on my arm. "I'm sorry ma'am but I'm not done yet." She pulled out a makeup bag from her own bag and sat me down. "You should wear makeup if you want to seduce your boyfriend properly." She winked at me. "He isn't my boyfriend" I blushed as she applied mascara to my eyelashes. "He will be" She winked again and pulled a wig off a mannequin outside the door. "I'm wearing that??" I pointed at the wig with complete disbelief. "Yep. No charge for this part." She put the wig on me. It was a long haired wig.

The hairs reached down to the middle of my back. The black hairs blended with the large black shirt I was wearing. The shirt was loose hanging but still made my figure look girly. The shop girl had also put me in a pair of shorts that reached down to the top of my thigh. I wore red converse and i had many black ring bands on my fingers. I had a skeleton necklace and black claw earings. I also had black stud earings lining my other ear piercings.

The girl dragged me out of the dressing room to meet Jhope. She threw all of my others clothes into a black studded bag to match my new girly clothes. Jhope was waiting at the register when we walked out. He glanced over a me and froze. I could see a slight pink color poking out from under his surgical mask.

I too turned pink from under my surgical mask.

The girl rang us up and Jhope payed for the new clothes. We walked out in silence.

"You look amazing" Jhope finally said to me after we walked a block. "You look like a girl." I scoffed at his words. "Yeah thanks. So do you." I burst into laughter. "Yeah ha. ha. Very funny. You are a comedian!" Jhope teased. He took his sunglasses off and slid them into his pocket. "I'm being serious though. You look very beautiful." He glanced over at me. He wasn't smiling now. I could feel his words making a permanent nest in my heart. "Oh...Thank you" I was trying not to make eye contact. I was too afraid of falling for him even more.

I felt his fingers trail down my wrist and fit perfectly into my hand. Our palms pressed together. I held my breath in the hopes that if I held it long enough the moment wouldn't go away. Then I realized Jhope was doing the same. He held his breath then looked over at me again. Our eyes met. Then our laughter mixed into the air. "You held your breath too?" Jhope laughed and squeezed my hand. I squeezed his hand back. "You babo!" I laughed. Jhope untwisted our fingers and put his arm around my shoulders. I was too distracted by what had just happened to notice. By the time I did notice, Jhope was already curling the wig hair around his fingers. I let him. Even though I couldn't feel the tug of his fingers on my real hair I still felt overjoyed by his touch.

I checked my phone. It was already 8:00pm. Jhope noticed the time too but he didn't have the same reaction.

"We should get going" I said and put my phone into my pocket.

"Not yet. I don't want to end this yet." Jhope pulled me closer as we walked. I became silent for a while. I didn't want it to end either.

We reached a pretty empty park. The park wasn't very big at all and it only had a few street lights. Jhope still insisted on staying there for a while. We went over to the swings of a tiny play ground and sat and talked.

"Hyung" I spoke quietly. I took my surgical mask off so I could be heard better.

"Yes?" Jhope whispered back. He too took his mask off.

"I'm glad I'm in BTS" I focused on the squeak of the swing chains, "Thank you for letting me stay."

"I'm glad you are in BTS too." He replied. We both spoke in soft whispers.

"Hey..." Jhope's voice was raspy, "I have a question."

"Me too." I responded.

"You first" Jhope said.

"Hyung...do you like me?" I asked. My body trembled. His answer was silence. I could barely see Jhope in the dark park. I saw no reaction. I heard nothing. I looked up at the sky. I wished the stars could be seen in the city so I wouldn't feel so alone. Tears forced themselves out of my eyes as the silence grew longer and longer. Then I closed my eye. My head was held high but the tears made my confidence disappear.

Then I felt a warm pressure on my lips. My swing moved slightly as someone grabbed the chains. I didn't feel shocked. I felt happy. I opened my eyes slightly to see Jhope. His eyes were closed and he too was crying. I could see the glittering tears catch on his eyelashes.

We broke apart but only for a moment. Jhope got on both knees infront of my swing and rested his arms on my lap. He reached one hand up and pulled my wig off. He brushed his fingers through my short hair. "I like it better this way." His voice was soft and quiet. He moved closer to me so that his body was between my legs. I moved my face closer to his. My tears were still flowing down. Some landed on Jhope's cheek. He didn't care though. He simply stared at my face. Then our lips met for the second time. His fingers twisted together with mine in my lap.

"Yes" He whispered between kisses. "It drives me crazy." He broke the kiss and stood up. He pulled my arms to lift me from the low hanging swing. "I might even like you too much" He looked into my eyes and smiled. "There is no such thing." I smiled back. He leaned down and kissed my cheek. "Please like me too much" I responded.

Jhope texted the members to say we were going to be coming home. When the phone buzzed again for a reply, Jhope smiled to himself. "What?" I asked, swing our hands as we walked. He didn't answer.

"I need to change before we go in." I said to Jhope as we entered the dorm building. "No you don't" Jhope said, pulling me up the stairs. I panicked. "What??"

When Jhope opened the dorm door I prepared for the worse. Instead there was no one. "The members went out to Big Hit. They are going to work on some stuff tonight. That means they are going to end up sleeping there." He walked into the bedroom I slept in with V and Suga. He kicked his shoes off and jumped onto my bed. I went into the bathroom and changed into a thick black sweatshirt and V's extra patterned pj's he had let me wear before. I went into the room and layed next to Jhope.

"well you are a shameless woman" He teased. I stuck my tung out and pulled the blanket over me. Jhope moved closer to me and pulled me on top of him. "Hey!" I turned bright red. He smiled wide and sat up slightly so our faces were very close. "You can't go to bed yet" he said, "I still haven't asked you my question." I furrowed my eyebrows at him. "Be my yeojachingu." I froze. "I can't. I have to be a boy." I responded. "Not with me" He said and looked into my eyes. He was serious.

I nodded at him. "Ok" I smiled. His eyes sparkled and his unique smiled showed itself again. I leaned down and kissed his cheek. I rolled off of him and I lay down facing him. He leaned over and kissed my cheek too. His arms made their way around my body and pulled me into a warm embrace. Then we drifted to sleep.
