It was 10:45am as I was standing in front of the cinema entrance 8 where only VIPs could enter. We decided to purchase the VIP ticket because if the public see both of us together, it'd be quite a stir.

I was in my cutest outfit, make up on point and hair curled; all just to impress Taehyung. As I was waiting for him, I couldn't help but reminisce about the conversation on the phone last night.

_____

"Kim Taehyung, let's go watch a movie."

There was a long pause. Nervousness crawled inside you and you started to panic.

You laughed. "Ha! I'm sorry! I forgot that you'd totally be busy. You're a busy man-"

"Tomorrow, is it?", he said softly and your eyes widened, heart beating faster. You bit your lips for a split second to stop yourself from squealing out loud.

"Yes.", you squeaked.

"Cool. I haven't been to a cinema in ages! What movie do you wanna watch?", he asked excitedly.

"Umm... How about Last Christmas?", you suggested.

"Oh my god. Yes! Love Emilia Clarke.", he said and you nodded in agreement.

"Same! Love Henry Golding too. He is such a snack! Loved him ever since Crazy Rich Asian.", you said, squealing like a fangirl.

You heard Taehyung's chuckle, causing you to smile fondly.

"So Last Christmas?", he asked and you nodded. "Yes, Last Christmas."

"I'll get the VIP seats. We don't wanna cause a scandal again, do we?", Taehyung joked.

"Yeah. It's safer.", you agreed.

"I'll purchase e-tickets and forward you via email afterwards.", he said.

"Cool.", you quickly responded.

There was a small pause between you both. This should be it for tonight but both of you did not hang up yet. Until you decided to butt in.

"So uh... see you tomorrow?", you said, heartbeat accelerating.

"Mhmm. See you tomorrow.", he said. You were about to hang up and then-

"Sweet Night, Minhee.", he said and you grinned so widely.

Taehyung always has his own way with words and phrases. You see. People normally would say 'I love you. I trust you.' But he made up a cute phrase like 'I purple you'?

Again. Now, he said 'Sweet Night' instead of 'Good night. Sweet dreams'. You adore this character of this.

"You too. Sweet Night~", you swooned and ended the call, cheeks heating up.

You could not wait to see him tomorrow.

It's a date.

____________

This is definitely not a date.

Not when Woo Bin was standing cheekily right beside Taehyung, giving me a knowing grin. I glared daggers into that jerk, feeling angered.

HE.JUST.RUINED.MY.DATE

"Oh- Uh... You didn't tell me that Woo Bin's coming too?", I asked politely even though I wanted to scream out loud into his face.

"Ah. Sorry about that. Woo Bin came over to my house this morning. He asked me if I had any plans today and I told him that we're catching a movie. He asked if he could tag along and I know you wouldn't say no.", he chuckled.

I would've said no!!! A BIG FAT NO.

I internally rolled my eyes at this situation. I glared at Woo Bin again and the jerk stuck his tongue out at me. Of course, Taehyung did not see all that.

"Shall we go in? It's about to start.", Taehyung suggested and I nodded.

When we all got inside, Woo Bin made sure he sat between me and Taehyung. Of course, its his plan all along. I just wanted to punch him in the face.

The movie started.

Woo Bin scooted his leg closer towards me and I moved away, not wanting to give into any of his likes. And he moved closer. I pulled away further. And he moved closer again.

I pinched the skin on his thigh so hard and he covered his mouth with his hand to stop himself from groaning out loud so that his cousin wouldn't notice.

I grinned in satisfaction. He didn't make any weird moves on me further for the next hour. I could finally watch peacefully.

While watching the movie, I realized that watching romance movies suck when you have a raging crush on someone. You couldn't help but imagine every scenario together with your crush and got all giddy and so emotionally invested in it.

Not gonna lie. I was imagining it with me and Taehyung.

My heart swelled when I realized the actor is a ghost all along. I started bawling my eyes out when they revealed the fact that the actor was the heart donor of the actress all along.

I ignored the fact that Taehyung and Woo Bin were looking at me with concern.

The movie ended.

The three of us got out of the room, the lights blinding our eyes. I noticed Taehyung was staring at me in amusement, causing me to give him a look.

"What?", I asked bluntly.

"You cried so much.", he stated, smiling.

"I mean its just so sad, don't you think? I couldn't help but cry.", I said as tears made their way down my cheeks again. Like why the fuck was I being this way. My make up was definitely ruined.

"I-I'm gonna go to the restroom.", I said before walking away from the two.

When I got inside, I looked at my reflection in the mirror. My mascara was all smudged. I looked awful. Oh my god. And Taehyung witnessed it.

I quickly fixed my make up and combed my hair. As I was putting on my lip gloss, I saw a girl coming out of the restroom. Her eyes widened when she saw my reflection in the mirror.

"Ah! You're that unnie who got into a scandal with Taehyung oppa!", she gasped and I just gave her a small smile.

She came closer towards me and took a good look at my face, causing me to stumble back a little. I clearly looked uncomfortable.

I just laughed. "Uh... What's the matter?"

She then straighten herself up and pulled herself away from me. "You're really pretty, unnie. I wouldn't even be mad if you and Taehyung oppa really are a thing.", she stated.

A blush threatened to appear on my cheeks. I cleared my throat. "Um, thank you. That's kind of you.", I said, trying not to look happy but in fact, I actually was.

"But, we're not. We're just good friends.", I smiled.

"Oh. I see. But don't worry, unnie. I'm not those obsessed and sick fans who think they own their idols. As long as they are happy, I am happy.", she assured.

I let out an 'aw'. I totally related to what she said. I was that kind of ARMY. Scratch that. I am an ARMY.

"One thing! My friends aren't like me though. And they're somewhere around on this floor. Be careful. They have um- kinda sasaeng behavior? So, watch out.", she warned.

I ruffled her hair. "That's so kind of you. I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.", I smiled at her and she smiled back. I left the restroom afterwards.

As soon as I stepped out, I saw Woo Bin leaning against the wall. "Where's Taehyung?", I asked, looking around.

"He went to buy ice cream.", he answered and I nodded.

"I don't get what you see in him.", he started and I frowned. "He is literally a pussy, y'know? He's acting kind to cover the fact that he's a coward—"

"Being kind means a coward. Right. Then, assholes like you are losers too. Spending so much time on making excuses and blaming people for their own lacks and faults.", I snapped.

Woo Bin scoffed. "Loser? I'm sure I'll win this time though. I can assure you that you and Kim Taehyung will never date."

"God, Woo Bin. What do you gain from doing this?! Its not like I'll fall for you as well. Stop thinking ruining things between me and Taehyung will make you feel better. You're playing dirty here, dude. What are you? A fiver year old?", I said, having enough with this bullshit.

"I don't care. We think differently. I'm going to make sure Taehyung hyung won't date you. And if I have to play dirty for that, then i will!", he said and I clenched my fists, fuming in anger.

I saw a group of young girls walking our way and hopefully, I wished they were whom I thought they are. They were dresses in BT21 merchandise. One of them even had a bag with Taehyung's face printed on it...

An idea lighted up on my mind and I let out a grin. I pulled out my scarf and wrapped it around my face, earning a confused look from Woo Bin.

"What are you doing?", he asked, brows furrowed.

"Playing dirty.", I answered, smiling under my scarf. He was so confused.

"Hey girls!", I shouted and the young girls looked at my way. "This is Taehyung's cousin!", I screamed and the group ran towards our direction in excitement, squealing out loud.

"Wh-what?", Woo Bin let out and was about to question the situation but got surrounded by those girls, not being able to find me. I mean how would he? I had already ran away towards the food stall.

When I reached there, I spotted Taehyung who was smiling at the seller as he took two cones of ice cream from him. He turned around and saw me who was trying to catch my breath.

"Minhee, what's the matter?", he asked, worried.

Without answering, I grabbed his hand and started running away together with him. I didn't even care about the fact that the ice creams he bought fell onto the ground.

But first, we have to run away. Together.
