《The 8th Member | BTS》[23]

"Look what you made me do, I'm with somebody new. Oh baby, baby I'm dancing with a stranger"
I yawned softly after finding myself falling asleep. I was so exhausted. I had been in the dance studio literally all day from seven in the morning to eleven at night.
I had practicing and working extra hard for our performance at the Mnet Music Awards coming up in a couple of days.
I haven't been so nervous in my life since the Seoul Music Awards. I pulled myself off the ground grabbing my items deciding it was time to go home.
I grabbed my phone was dying quickly, and called Sean my driver that I was ready to be taken home. I must've forgotten to charge my phone last night but the shit was literally on three percent.
After leaving the building and heading home, I found myself falling asleep. I hadn't been so exhausted in so long. Maybe it was because a lot was going on.
For instance, this morning I just dropped DWAS, and I have yet to know the feedback about it mainly because it probably only be trending in America.
After the ride home the car finally pulled into the driveway, I rushingly gathered my things and got out the car.
I walked to the front door, opening and unlocking it. The house itself was immediately dark, and silent which meant the boys where either a sleep or weren't here.
I sigh in relief, I could finally go shower and go to bed. It may have not been new to the boys but all of this was most certainly new for me.
All of this attention from the public and media is completely different from in America. I wanted to do my best no matter what. Not just for the guys but also for me.
I reached for the light but was beat to it when it cut on, and the words "Surprise!" Scared the hell out of me.
I screamed and jumped frighteningly, holding my chest trying to catch my breath as I look around to see the all of guys with smiles on their face.
What the hell was going on.
"surprise. I bet you didn't expect that did you?" Tae asked more happy then any one of us.
You're damn right, I didn't.
"Surprise?" I ask in confusion as Jung-Kook walked towards me, as sucked helium out of the ballon.
"why aren't you more excited" he says in a high pitch making me want to laugh at him.

J-hope then places a party hat on me, and smiles ear from ear, causing me to finally laugh out in confusion the hell was going on with them.
"Yeah. You should be more excited", Taehyung says jumping up and down on the couch which obviously annoyed Yoongi who flared at him.
"I would be if I knew what to be excited about"
They all turned all looked at me, and then each other. "Where have you been all day?" Jimin asks me.
I roll my eyes. "You guys don't have to keep taps on me you know. I'm grown, I can— Jin cut me off, "Just answer the question" he sounded annoyed.
"I was at the dance studio all day practicing"
"And your phone? Wasn't it blowing up? Didn't you get the notifications?" Yoongi asked me.
"No. It died. And Notifications for what? Can someone please explain to me what the hell is going on?" I ask crossing my arms.
Jung-Kook pulls out his phone before tapping on the screen and then handing it over to me.
I awkwardly turned my attention away from the boys to Jookie's phone.
My mouth and my heart dropped from what I was reading, I covered my mouth still scrolling on his phone.
What the hell.
Tears began forming in my eyes, as I breathed heavily reading the information.
"I think she's excited now you guys" j-hope says.
"Well?" Taehyung asks smiling I guess wanting me to read the information out loud.
I look up to the boys, my eyes wiped and jaw dropped.
"My song is number one in Korea? Dancing With A Stranger is trending?" I ask with a low and soft tone before breaking down.
"Not only is it Number One In Korea but also number one in 71 other countries as well, including America and The U.K" Jimin responds smiling at me before turning off the television where there was a photo of Sam and I, as our cover picture for the single.
I literally wanted to fall to the ground and cry, it was like I was a child who got the exact Christmas gift they wanted but didn't expect to even gift.
"Yeah. See you should be happy" V says causing me to gush.
I never gotten a number one before on any of the charts. Not even while I was in Fifth Harmony or with my hit "Love Lies" with Khalid.
I began to look around to noticed how they decorated the living room for my surprise. There was confetti and balloons with hats. They really went all out for me.

"You guys!" I say breaking down.
"Awe.. don't cry. If you cry then I start cry, and I don't want to look better then you when I cry since I do it on a daily... look better then you" Jin says trying to cheer me up.
"Shut up" I say nudging him and joking causing the boys to laugh.
"We're so proud of you, Mani. We know how hard doing this may be. You know changing your entire lifestyle to adapt to ours. To have to trust us and depend on us when you aren't a very open person. And I never thought I'd be saying this in a thousand years but I'm happy the eighth member of BTS was you", Yoongi says being very open.
"Uwu.. Uwu... Mani made Yoongi sentimental" Jung-Kook grabbing Yoongi's cheek and shaking it as he was the grandmother.
Yoongi grabbed Jung-Kook arm, "do you want your fingers? Because I will break them" he says harshly causing Jung-Kook to let his cheek go.
"And all of this? You guys did this for me?" I asked them all.
"You deserve it" Jimin tells me.
I break down harder.
"Mani! Don't cry... look.." j-Hope pauses trying to make me stop crying and to look at him. I turn to him with watery eyes and happy tears.
"Look what you made me do, I'm with somebody new. Oh baby, baby I'm dancing with a stranger" J-hope songs recreating my dance performance and scene that I did in the music video.
Causing everyone to laugh. Jung-Kook falls to the ground laughing uncontrollably, as Jimin hits the wall as he laughs.
Jin clapped his hands and laughed loudly. Tae began to join J-hope as he was dancing my exact dance moves.
Yoongi just looked at all of us and shook his head like he was disappointed in all of us.
The only one missing from the picture is NamJoon himself.
With that I squat down to the ground with my hands covering my face that has tears falling uncontrollably.
This has to be the best thing for life, for my career, for my family and for me.
Taehyung And J-hope shook me trying to stop me from crying as if I was sad but it wasn't tears of sadness, I was genuinely happy.
I stood up slowly wiping my tears and laughed as J-hope was still dancing.
"W-Wait... W-where's RM?" I ask looking around, if anyone should be here to help celebrate this special moment with me it should be him.
"He left after you did this morning saying his schedule was packed with interviews about the group, new music and his "relationship" with Lisa", Jimin tells me.
"Oh" was all that came out my mouth.
Oh. As in... oh yeah I forgot NamJoon wasn't as smart as I thought he was. That for some stupid reason actually he agree to the stupid allegation of him and Lisa being together.
You'd be surprised. Dude has an IQ of 148, and still doesn't know his right from his mother fucking wrong.
Do It look like I care about him and his fake ass relationship. Because I don't.
"But it's okay because I'm sure he already knows about you getting number one worldwide. His phone is probably off or he's in a important business meeting" V suggests.
"Yeah. He probably will walk through that door any minute by now and celebrate with us" J-hope agreeing with Tae and tries to lighten the very awkward and gloomy mood.
The words, "RM from BTS being seen leaving the downtown restaurant with Lisa From BlackPink" caught my attention.
I do.
My eyes quickly jot to the television, watching as photos showed RM and Lisa sitting at a table inside, laughing... smiling and talking.
I know their relationship was fake but it looked so real. Very real if you ask me.
I swallowed hard, swallowing the clump of anger and hurt in my throat.
Jung-Kook quickly turns the television off, and then looks at me.
So much for a important business meeting.
"hey! Why don't we all go get some cake from inside the kitchen", Jimin suggests wanting to lighten the mood.
"You guys go ahead. I'm gonna take a shower and get ready for bed. I'm really tired. Thank you guys... for all of this. I means the world to me that you guys did this. Goodnight" I say quickly causing all the boys to look at each other in confusion.
I nod before turning around and walking to my room.
Why was I acting like this? I was the main one who said him and I are just friends. That him and I will always just remain friends.
I shouldn't care. I shouldn't want him.
But I do. And it sucks because I can't have him.
