《The 8th Member | BTS》|18|

Advertisement

I sighed in relief entering the dorm after a very long day. I was tired, and jet-legged out of this world.

After the BTS & Got7 collaboration performance, I was rushed into multiple photoshoots and solo interviews that Brandon had to schedule.

I removed my heels before closing the door, "I'm back!" I shout to announce that I was home.

It was quiet. Literally the quietest the dorm as ever been meaning the boys were most likely asleep or not here.

I walked out of the foyer walking into the living room to see Yoongi [SUGA] turning off the television.

He was dressed as if he was planning to go out or something. He tosses the remote on the couch and turns to me. I could tell he was annoyed by the look on his face.

"finally" he says rolling his eyes crossing his arms.

"Hey? Where is everyone?" I asked confusingly looking around.

"Didn't RM tell you?" He pauses waiting for my response. I shook my head, "We were invited to this party at BigHit Corporations with agencies containing multiple artists from both BigHit Entertainment and JYP Entertainment. Is most likely going to be an all celebrate events. Artists like Eric Nam, BlackPink, even GFriend" he explains.

No. Rm didn't tell me any of that.

"Oh. So what are you doing here?" I ask him. Out of all the boys why'd he be the one to stay back.

"Someone had to wait until you got home" he scuff not sounding to happy about it either.

"Besides your boyfriend couldn't do because he's the leader of the group" he continues walking past me as if I wasn't going to stop him on his little comment.

"He isn't my boyfriend"

"That kiss tells me otherwise" he smirks walking towards the front door. My eyes widen open and my mouth drops.

I basically sprint to catch him before he exits the dorm. I opened my arms basically embracing the door.

He stands in front of me arching his eyebrows.

"How do you know about the kiss?" I ask him.

Please don't tell me NamJoon told him.

"How else would I know about the kiss?" He smirks crossing his arms.

So NamJoon did open his mouth.

"I don't know why your so shocked. It's not like I'm the only one who knows"

The words escaped from his mouth, and I wish NamJoon was here so I could slap the shit out of him.

"Look I would love to sit here and talk about your and NamJoon's kiss but the guys are waiting on me" he says so determined to leave the house.

I sigh, removing myself from the door. "RM also suggested that you didn't have to come knowing how tired you might be" he explained.

Of course. He did.

I nod, "don't stay up too late. We'll be back later. Goodnight" he says before exiting the dorm.

After the door shuts there was nothing but silence in the house. It felt weird. Being around the guys for almost 24/7 everyday I had gotten so used to them. Not being around them felt weird.

Wait. Did Suga say that BlackPink would be there? At the party?

Why else would NamJoon suggest me not to go? He used to date one of the girls. I was never the type to get jealous over a guy but I couldn't help it.

I sighed knowing what I was about to do was most likely going to be a bad idea. But at this point I didn't care.

I pulled my phone from my back pocket, dialing Brandon's number, after pressing call, I placed the phone to my ear.

"Mani?"

"Send me a driver. Tell them I'll be ready in 30 minutes"

The boys danced causally to the music playing at the party they all attended. J-hope and Jin seemed to be having the times of the there life's not caring who was looking.

Jimin and Suga were making conversation amongst other artists at the party. The two youngest members of BTS there, Jung-Kook and Taehyung were talking to some of the members of EXO.

NamJoon on the other hand found himself caught up in a conversation he wished not to be in.

"hey" he says awkwardly before sipping on his cup.

"Hey. It's been a while hasn't it" The girl who once held his heart greeted him back awkwardly.

"Yeah"

NamJoon and The main rapper of BlackPink Lisa has dated for a couple of months before Normani joined BTS.

Them being together wasn't new to anyone but Normani. Everyone who ever heard of BTS & BlackPink knew the members of both groups had a fling that ended terribly.

In the process of their public relationship both of them got hurt in the mist of it. But sometimes people can't let go of the past.

"Oh. I've heard a lot about Normani. I was really excited to meet her today once I found out you guys were coming. Where is she?" She asked looking around wondering where the girl of BTS was.

Her just like everyone else who hadn't met Normani, wanted to meet her. Normani was like Beyoncé to them.

"She had a very long day... and decided to stay home" Suga says inviting himself into the awkward conversation trying to make it less awkward for NamJoon.

"That's a shame. I was looking forward to meeting her" Kai from Exo said inviting himself into the conversation as well said.

"I think everyone is" Lisa jokes laughing.

"Oh, I wanted to applaud the members of BTS on their performance at the Seoul Music Awards. You guys were amazing. As always" Kai nods changing the conversation.

"Thank you" RM says nods before taking another sip of his drink.

"So where's my favorite member of BTS?" The obnoxious voice of BamBam said leaning in between NamJoon and Suga placing both of his arms on them.

"She wasn't feeling well" NamJoon says through his teeth. He was obviously annoyed all of these people wanted to see Normani.

"I thought you said she was tired?" Lisa says arching her eyebrows to Suga.

Before Suga could correct Lisa, Jung-Kook walks up to the two members of BTS standing there.

"Um.. we have a situation" he whispers to Suga, who then turns RM who looks at him in confusion.

Kai, Lisa, and BamBam stood there unsure what was going on. That was until the loud room suddenly became quiet.

All there was the song of Sistar began to play, "Give It To Me". Everyone turned their attention to the figure who stood at the door.

There she stood. The beautiful girl. Body shaped my goddess, skin smooth like honey. Lips full. Hair thick.

It was Normani.

I entered the very crowded room and blasting music slowly looking around for the boys. As I heard the song "Give It To Me" by Sistar played.

It didn't take long for me realize I was now being stared at by almost everyone in the room. I swallowed hard, seeing unfamiliar faces look at me in amazement.

It was like it was my high school prom all over again. The feeling was unexplainable. All I know is I felt like I was Beyoncé.

I then noticed a few of the boys. There was Jimin was stood next to Tae. J-hope was with Jin, as always. Suga near Jung-kook. Then there was NamJoon.

Standing next to her. I felt all the emotions I promised myself not to feel when I see RM.

I walk further into the room with eyes still all me. I needed to be with someone I'm comfortable around.

I walked near the direction NamJoon was in, and past him not even giving the time of the day. I didn't have time to talk to him. Nor did I really want to at the moment.

I walk to Jimin who like everyone else stared at my very short but sexy dress.

"Hey" I say.

"Hey?" He says slowly meaning he was confused on why I had showed.

"Why is everyone looking at me like that?" I ask nervously looking around to notice people still glancing at me.

"Because you happen to be the only girl apart of BTS. Also because in Korea there isn't a lot artists like you" Tae explains.

I nod.

I knew exactly what that meant. There isn't a lot of black girls. Black girls who are famous. Black girls who are internationally known. Just black girls period.

"Normani?" A voice from behind me calls out my name. I turn away from Jimin and Tae to see two of the members from BlackPink.

I already knew one of them. Because she happened to be NamJoon's ex.

I forced a smile as they smiled at me very so greeting me.

"It's so nice to finally meet you. I'm Lisa" she says smiling softly, before nodding.

"I'm Rose" The other pretty girl says standing next to RM's ex said before also nodding to me.

"hi" I say waving to both of them unsure how to greet them.

"I wanted to let you know that I think your so talented and very pretty" Lisa says complimenting me making me smile.

"Thank you. Thank you so much. So are you"

"After we found out there was a girl joining BTS, we lost it" Rose says.

"I think everyone did" I joke causing both of the girls to laugh.

"I have goosebumps right now, God. You're like so good at everything you do. It's like your Beyoncé" Lisa says causing me to laugh softly.

I wanted to hate her. I wanted her to be one of the bitch ass ex girlfriends from like those high school drama shows. The ones who had the really mean girls.

I wanted lisa to be that so I could have an excuse to hate her but I couldn't. She was literally so sweet, and kind. Which made me mad at myself even more.

What the hell was I even doing here in the first place. I wish I knew the answer to that question, but yet here I am having a full conversation with 2/4 of BlackPink.

"Stop it" I say smiling ear to ear now.

I glance up for a quick second to see NamJoon looking at me. His eyes met mine for a second but it felt as if him and I were the only ones in the room right now.

He was then brought back to reality when BamBam tapped him to get his attention.

"If you don't mind I want to introduce you to some friends of ours" Rose says.

I shrug looking back to notice Jimin and Tae were no longer there. So I followed the members of BlackPink to the section of the room.

"Yo.. you guys... this is Normani. Normani these are a few of the members of Exo" Lisa says.

I looked up to see around at least three or four guys. Four tall guys.

"Normani. We've heard so much about you" The tall and attractive one says nodding towards me, greeting me.

"I hope all good things" I joke causing them to laugh.

I nod. "Only good. Let me introduce us... I'm Kai" he pauses and then continues by pointing at the three members behind him who danced the music.

"That's Sehun... Chanyeol... and Xiumin" he introduces them as they all nod and smile at me.

I return the same by nodding and smiling back at them.

"I was just talking to your boys about you. I was almost hurt that you didn't show" Kai says immediately making conversation.

Hurt? Was I really that important?

"Awe. Really? Why?" I asked pretending to care.

"Because I really wanted to meet you. I think everyone does"

"Really? Thank you" I say unsure how to respond to that.

"I watched your— uh videos the other day from when you were in your girl group and I just wanted to let you know that your so talented. Like it's crazy" Sehun finally speaks.

"Thank you" I say nodding.

Meeting all these different artists from different groups was crazy. It was insane how many people wanted to meet me, to get to know me.

It was like BTS was a very important group to everyone in this room. Since beginning I am now apart of BTS it also made me important as well.

"So how is it? The boys treating you nice?" Kai asks making a joke.

"It's different but it's cool. The boys always treat me right. They're so protective and respectful towards me" I say softly smiling and nodding my head.

"Good. I don't want to have to beat any of them up" he jokes.

"As if you'd actually win... I'm pretty sure the youngest one would kick your ass without even looking" Xiumen finally speaks causing me to snicker.

Lisa and Rose laughed loudly at his joke.

"Speaking of the boys of BTS, here comes one right now" Rose says causing me to turn hoping that it wasn't NamJoon.

Thank God.

J-hope walked towards me holding to red cups, I turn to him smiling.

"I thought you might be thirsty or something" he tells me handing me a cup.

"Thanks"

He nods, as I place the cup to my lips and swallow the liquid.

My throat burned, and I squeezed my eyes shut as it went down. I open them looking at Jin confusingly.

I cough covering my mouth.

"They're out of water. That's all they have. You can handle it right?" He asks me.

I nod.

He smiles as the members of EXO and

BLACKPINK before joining the conversation.

Truth?

I couldn't handle my liquor for shit. Knowing me. Liquor and Normani doesn't mix. If anything it's like adding water to hot, popping oil. It just makes it worst.

I find myself sipping on the liquid inside of cup more and more and more until there's nothing left. Which made me go get more, and when that was finish.... I went to get more causing me to be a drunken mess.
