"Hey Tae! I missed you! Is this for me?" A familiar girl said to Taehyung. Her dark locks danced in between black and brown. It was obvious she knew Taehyung would go here, so she had her hair done. Her slender fingers snatched the bouquet from Taehyung's tight grip as her grin grew wider by the moment. I clenched my jaw at her sudden appearance and mentally smacked her in the face, hoping that she'd finally stay away from him. But no, I would probably cause a bigger fight.

I approached Taehyung and the familiar girl that I've seen around school. Her name never popped up in my head. I might've forgotten it, I thought to myself.

As I got closer, I was able to clearly see Taehyung's face. He looked just as angry as I am. "What are you doing here?" He spoke softly in a bit of a throaty growl which showed his inner frustration at the woman before him. He tried his best not to yell so he won't cause any trouble in the coffee shop.

I spotted some people watching us and a few tried to approach Taehyung, hoping to get a photo with him but I refused to get them closer because now's not the time for a picture with him.

"Oh, c'mon. You know you missed me, Tae! Thank you for the bouquet by thr way, it smells amazing!" She complimented. By this time, my anger rose to the point that I felt invisible smoke coming out of my ears, like how it usually goes in animated films.

I stomped in front of Taehyung and gently pushed the girl away, "What's your problem?" I asked.

She laughed loud enough to turn heads from the coffee shop to our direction. Now the entire coffee shop was watching us. Where's the manager?, I thought to myself.

She wiped her fake tears from her eyes from laughter with the back of her index finger and soon enough, her eyebrows twitched; making it look like she was a bit confused of the situation. "I thought we had a deal, Collins?" She spoke with her try-hard scary voice, hoping to shut me down.

I didn't choose to respond, so she decided to continue. "I thought that we made a deal about you staying away from my Taehyung?" She said, adding a loud scoff at the end of her sentence. That's when it finally hit me, this is Mia Jacobs.

Taehyung blinked twice and stepped in. Mia's eyes widened from shock and she tried to form a fake smile when Taehyung stood in front of her. "Move. Give me back the bouquet, it's not for you. We're completely over the rumor that happened. You know that wasn't me who held your hand, you just had someone who looked like me to hold your hand because you wanted attention!"

I looked down and shifted between my left feet from my right. My mouth formed a round shape from the shock when I heard what Taehyung said and I didn't even notice it from everything that was happening.

It was silent in the entire coffee shop that I just waited for the crickets to make a noise in the place. Finally, Mia broke off the silence by snickering. I turned my head at her and notice that she was facing down, her slender fingers stuck in between her teeth like she didn't know how to respond.

By the time I turned my head at her, she started to laugh softly to herself. She shot me a death glare before she faced the entire coffee shop and the people who were watching us, including Claire who I forgot was even here.

"Fine. That was true. I only wanted attention. You all win, people! We all know anyways that without the famous Kim Taehyung, you would still know me as one of his exes! You're all a bunch of people who fell for it and believed the rumor anyways, right?" She spoke loudly with a grinned formed on her face.

Silence filled the entire coffee shop and I shifted my eyes between Taehyung and the people around us. Before I knew it, the manager took action and tightly gripped Mia by the wrist.

"Ma'am, please leave. You're causing chaos in my coffee shop and people are getting irritated. Guards!" He said softly to Mia and raised his voice to call out the guards outside.

The door widely opened, revealing two guards in their uniform. "Kick her out." The manager said. The guards nodded and took her by the arm, leading her outside the coffee shop as she struggled to remove their grips on her arm.

"Let me go!" She shouted loud enough for me to hear inside the coffee shop.

One of the guards came back and gave me the bouquet that Mia snatched. I thanked him and he proceeded to go outside.

I turned to Taehyung and he gave me an apologetic look. "I'm sorry that she ruined it. Can I make it up to you?"

I smiled and quickly wrapped my arms around his waist as I rested my head on his chest. I heard a few people mutter 'aww' even though I only had one ear out; my other ear leaned on his chest.

"You don't have to apologize Tae. Thanks for coming. I missed you." I spoke which almost came out as a whisper but I knew he heard it. I felt him smile as he ran his hands through my hair. I couldn't help but also feel a smile forming on my lips and we just stayed there, silent.

"Do you want me to introduce you to the boys?" He asked. I nodded and he let go of my hug. He smiled and opened the door for me as we were about to leave. I waved goodbye to Claire and mouthed 'next time' to her and she responded with a nod. We left and Tae walked beside me as I followed him along the way.

We walked along the sidewalk and passed by the houses. We played a short game of 'I Spy' as we were heading towards their new house.

"I spy with my little eye.." I paused and looked around my surroundings to find something difficult to guess. My head turned to Taehyung and I smirked, "I spy with my little eye someone who acts like a complete jerk.. in a good way." I chuckled at the end of the sentence and my smile grew wider.

"You." He said and smiled to himself as he faced the ground. My mouth formed an 'o' shape and I gently punched a shoulder, causing him to laugh.

"You're wrong." I chuckled.

"I'm definitely correct." He smiled and turned to face me, catching me narrowing my eyes.

I rolled my eyes and muttered "Idiot" to myself which he clearly heard but he just laughed it off.

We arrived at the place and I noticed that their house was not that big, not that small, too. It was the perfect size; enough to make you comfortable. There were plants that were located around the house, causing the entire place to look more beautiful that it already is. There was a carpet that was placed in front of the door that spelled out the word "welcome". I admired the small details like the small designs on the window and the multi-colored tiles that were on the ground.

I noticed that there were also writings on their door that spelled out their names and some characters I couldn't understand, which I guessed were Hangul characters.

I noticed Taehyung's sneaky smile when he caught me admiring their perfectly built and designed house. "Loving the place?" He asked in a sweet tone. I turned to him and shot him a weird look, "Are you serious? This place is amazing!"

He turned the doorknob and before pushing the door, he spoke. "Wait until you see the inside." He smiled, "We just finished moving in today before I went to the coffee shop."

After he spoke, he pushed the door revealing the most organized place I've probably ever seen. My eyes widened at the sight and by the time, I heard footsteps inside that were getting closer and closer by the second.

"Aish! Taehyung-ah! You didn't tell me you were bringing your girlfriend over!" A man with blonde hair said. His hair was divided into half in his forehead, which made it easier to see the middle of it. It looked fluffy enough that I already wanted to touch it. His cheeks were chubby and his height was about 5'9.

He smiled when he saw me but was interrupted by more footsteps approaching us. He turned his head and found another man about his height and I caught him staring at me.

He slowly approached me and extended his hand, "Min Yoongi. Excuse my friend here, he just needs to take a rest." He said and cleared his throat. I gave him a handshake and introduced myself as he took the other guy somewhere around the house.

"Hyung! I forgot to introduce myself!" I heard him shout somewhere in the house.

"Ah, you'll introduce yourself later. I think she already kno- Aish! Jimin-ah! You stepped on my toe!"

"I'm sorry!"

Taehyung chuckled behind me and I turned my head to him, "Is this your everyday life with the boys?"

He chuckled again and scratched the back of his neck, "You'll get used to it."

I smiled to myself. Yeah, maybe I will.
