You and Jungkook were friends since you were kids, and were inseparable since you met on the playground
You had protected him from a bully and he looked up to you even if you were a year younger
You were together through everything, you cried together, laughed together, you were practically bound by the hip
When he told you he wanted to be an idol you were his biggest supporter
You would bring him food after his training, you would constantly check up on him
Even the security of his trainee building knew you
You and Jungkook were called one day by Bang Shi-Hyuk and you kind of knew why
He had asked if you were dating and before you could say no, Jungkook held your hand and told him that you were
For the rest of the meeting, your eyes were only on your hands that were intertwined and the only thing you could hear was your heart beating in your ears
Once the news was out all his members wanted to meet you
You and Jin cooked together whenever you could
You and Namjoon would talk about the books you were reading and would talk to you in English as you were studying it in university
You and Taehyung photographed together and we’re always excited to show each other your work
You and Jimin would dress each other, and even bought wigs one time and put on a fashion show for the rest of the boys
You and J-Hope would just jump around together, he tried to teach you how to dance but you could never get your body to follow or remember
You and Yoongi got the closest, you were always interested in music and he truly took your critique into consideration when he would produce new tracks
Jungkook couldn’t be happier that all his members adored you
Soon he got busy, with new debuts, new songs, constant interviews but you were still together whenever you could be
The public found out you were together one day when you were caught with him going on a date
Big Hit released a statement that you had been together for a long time and were happy with one another
You received hate
You weren’t pretty enough, you weren’t skinny enough, you were only going to drag him down
But some people were also really happy for you both, and you tried to only focus on those comments
You would visit their dorm with snacks and present for all the members and go see Jungkook
But slowly you and Jungkook grew distant, the members always wanted to talk to you and soon they talked to you more than Jungkook did
You actively tried to talk to him but he was always busy and soon you stopped trying
All the other members would tell you about their day and sometimes you would ask them about Jungkook and tell them to take care of him
One day all the members except for Jungkook had a schedule, so you decided that you would visit him and surprise him with an arcade date
You walked into the dorm saying hi to the security, and when you were growing closer to his room you head voices
Not only voices but moans
Now you knew why he was being distant, he didn’t want to be with you
The comments were right, and you hated how they were right
You walked into the room, praying that it was a prank
That Jungkook and Taehyung were pulling a sick prank but a prank nonetheless
Instead, Jungkook and someone else’s naked bodies were tangled together
They hadn’t seen you
So you walked out of the dorm feeling empty
So empty, that even hate would feel better than this
You started ignoring everyone
You stopped showing up to their dorm
Your phone blew up with hundreds of messages but you couldn’t open them
They had cancelled a bunch of interviews and you hated thinking it might be because of you
Big Hit even contacted you, asking where you were and if you could respond to the boys
But you said you couldn’t because you were only going to drag them down
Day after day messages slowly stopped showing up and you truly hoped they were moving on
The last message you had received was from Yoongi, saying
Please just tell us you’re okay, if we did something we apologise, please we miss you
You tried to move on, but no matter where you went people would recognise you as Jungkook’s girlfriend and it just started to hurt all over again
These girls had walked up to you asking for a picture and you said you weren’t allowed to
They were sad but then you offered to buy them milk tea and sit down and chat with them
They were so happy and it made you happy too, you almost forgot what it was like, that it startled you how easy you were smiling
When the girls had to leave, you told them not to tell people about this because you didn’t do it for publicity
You were a photographer, focusing on urban photography
The city was always what home felt like
You would say hi to the vendors selling snacks on the side of the road and take pictures of them
They were always so happy to see you and they practically thought of you as family
I had been walking around the city when someone had scouted me asking to audition for a role in a new Korean drama
You were shocked, asking if she knew who you were
She looked at you, with confusion on his face
You said you would do it
And before you knew it, you were in one of the most highly acclaimed dramas of the year
This came with interviews and paparazzi, some would talk about Jungkook and you had responded saying you has separated a long time ago
Somehow paparazzi had followed you to the place in the city where you would photograph street vendors
This was brought up in an interview and you had said they treated you like family and that you were grateful for them
In the next interview they had found out about the incident with the group of girls and how you had bought them drinks and sat down with them
You were shy and told them you hadn’t wanted that to get out because you knew people would assume you had done it for publicity
Soon you were known as the angel of JYP
Many sources tried to find dirt on you yet no one had anything bad to say
In every shoot, you would help wherever you could, and would even buy warm drinks for the crew if you were filming in a cold place
You were asked to do modelling campaigns as well as were offered roles in new dramas
Even being offered to go on celebrity shows, this was how you made friends with many people in the industry
But you knew everyone was curious about your past relationship with Jungkook but you were always tight-lipped about it
And had always said you drifted apart
When you first started to ignore the members of BTS they were heartbroken
They had asked Jungkook if she was talking to him but you weren’t
They tried to think of anything they had done but they couldn’t
Then on a drunk night after an award show, Jungkook had spilt that he was cheating on you and the members all reacted differently
Jin and Namjoon were so disappointed, they had lost an amazing friend because of him. They were shocked hoping that they had taught him better but they hadn’t and you had to suffer because of it
J-Hope was in disbelief, constantly asking Jungkook to stop joking, he said it over and over, louder and louder until his throat sounded hoarse
Taehyung was screaming at Jungkook, asking how he could do that to you, Jimin had to hold him back from punching him
Soon Jimin and Taehyung were crying, wishing they had been there for you
Yoongi was silent, he hadn’t said and word, he just continued to look at Jungkook
He felt everything, he was disappointed, he was furious, he was sad
How could he hurt you, you were their little sister and he had broken you
All the members left to their rooms leaving Jungkook alone
He just started crying, bawling, saying he had messed up, praying to go back in time
There wasn’t a second in the day he didn’t think about you
He thought about your smile, your laugh, your tears, he never didn’t think about you
But what could he do, he had no right to ask for you back, he was the one that had hurt you
The members didn’t talk to him for weeks
They were called to Bang Shi-Hyuk’s office, as he was appaled at the state of them
Jungkook told him the truth about you, and he understood the member’s reaction
You had stolen everyone’s heart even his, and Jungkook had broken yours
He told them to take as much time as they all needed
Before telling Jungkook how disappointed he was in him, and telling him to get some rest
It had been almost a year until they saw you, well you on a screen
They were looking for a show to watch, and they saw you
They were shocked, they searched you up and had seen you were in interviews and campaigns
You had fan meets and stan accounts
They thought they would never see you again, but there you were on their TV
They had all privately watched your show, being in awe with your talent
They watched your interviews laughing at what you would say and they all wished they could’ve supported you from the beginning
Yoongi decided to text you, telling you how proud he was of you and how much he misses you
You looked at your phone and saw you had a message from Yoongi
He was always your big brother, and you did truly miss everyone
You replied to him saying
Thank you so much, I loved your comeback, but you should be careful with constantly dying your hair, want conditioner recommendations?
When he received the text he was shocked to get a reply at all
But soon tears sprang to his eyes as he realised how much he missed you
You started talking to one another regularly and the members would constantly ask Yoongi why he was so happy on his phone
Taehyung has grabbed his phone mid-text to you and read who he had been texting
Yoongi ran after him but it was too late he saw that it was you
He was mad that Yoongi hadn’t told him or anyone else that he was in contact with you but he also understood
One by one all the members started talking to you again, except Jungkook
He hurt you, he didn’t deserve to speak to you
You would tell the members about a new shoot, or a new script you would get
You still visited your street vendor family, soon buying one of the old ladies an apartment and someone to take care of her
You took care of them as they had done for you
However the public found out, and you were so scared that they were going to all go to them and ask them about you
But instead, they started to raise funds to donate to them
During a live, you had said how grateful you were to have such amazing fans that they would do something like this
You told them honestly that you were scared and now how disappointed you were in yourself for assuming that
You started crying as more people started to donate
Then one donation of 5 million won came through from a donator named JK
You knew immediately who it was
Jungkook had met them too, he loved them
They would feed him as much as he liked
You looked straight into the camera, eyes still teary and mouthed thank you before bowing
When Jungkook watched you cry, his heart wrenched
He was always going to donate, not expecting anything in return
But when you looked straight at him and thanked him
God, it broke him
He fucked up so bad and he had no idea how to fix it but he wanted to so bad
He wanted to hear your laugh in the dorm, wanted to see you cook with Jin as you made kissy faces to him
He wanted to hold your hand when you walked down the street
He wanted to see you
All the other members donated as well and had posted on their social media to donate as well
Now all the vendors had homes and were able to support their children through school
Of course, all the interviews would say how much of an angel you were, knowing how shy you got when getting complimented
You had always responded that it was your fans and the people that donated that were to thank and how lucky you were that people like them supported you
Some interviews mentioned BTS, you said you were very grateful for their support, never going into too much detail
You received an email from Big Hit, asking to have a meeting
You were worried you had said something wrong, you had asked your manager if she knew anything but she said it was to catch up
You walked into the Big Hit building, being in awe at how much it had grown
You were led to an office where you saw Bang Shi-Hyuk sitting drinking a cup of tea
When he saw you he stood up and gave you a hug
He apologised on everyone’s behalf for not being there for you but you simply shrugged it off saying how it was in the past
You talked for hours about how you were doing in the entertainment business, you asked him how the boys were, and he was careful not to mention Jungkook.
He then asked you if you wanted to MC with BTS on an award show
He had talked to the company hosting the show beforehand and had said if they were able to get you to join they would be in full support
You said how you hadn’t received an invite for the show, and how he didn’t need to
Bang insisted, giving you a contract and giving your manager one as well, simply saying to think about it
When you left the building, the boys of BTS came to Bang’s office, asking who was in there
He simply responded with
y/n
All of their eyes went wide, Jungkook fiddling with his sleeves
He told them about how you were doing, retelling jokes you had said, not telling them about the deal he had offered
You didn’t have to think about it, you wanted to
You always wanted to try to MC, and being with BTS would be a bonus
And you knew you had to see them at one point, you were just worried about Jungkook
He was the only one who had not contacted you, but you always asked the boys to take care of him
He broke you, but you were healed now and wanted to continue forward
You had to practice your lines and knew at one point you were going to practice with them
The time you would be practising together would be recorded as a teaser for the show
You were dressed in a street style vibe, with chunky shoes and chain on your trousers
You walked into their dressing room, with a camera looking over your shoulder
You walked in and their eyes went wide
Each of them individually hugging you, some even having tears fall
Jungkook was just shocked, he didn’t know what to do
He wanted to run up to you and hug you, and kiss you and hold you
But he couldn’t
You hugged everyone, realising how much you missed every single one of them
The last person you hugged was Jungkook
You were to one to go up to him, and you hugged his torso feeling him stiffen
You breathed in, smelling the familiar scent you were accustomed to for years
And before you pulled away
He tightened his grasp on you, he didn’t want to let go of you
Scared you would leave right after
You heard someone behind you cough and you both released one another
The whole practice was really fun
You constantly strayed from your lines to tell jokes instead
It felt familiar, it felt like home
The day of the show got all of you excited
You and Jungkook were friends, he was still very quiet but you weren’t
You had told yourself not to let what happened, change you as a person
He soon started to open up and would be playful with you
So many times he wanted to grab you and hug you, but he knew he couldn’t
Even if his other members did all the time
Sometimes he wondered if they did it on purpose and he knew they did
But you were with them laughing and smiling and that’s all he could ever ask for
His members knew he was in love with you
And they didn’t know what to do, they wanted him to be happy but he was the one to hurt you
They loved you and they still somewhat resented him for hurting you
But they also knew you were happy being with them which included him
You knew you would always love Jungkook but you were scared to be hurt again
But you were happy to be with your boys again and they were happy to have their angel back
You would hang out in their dorm again, you had brought snacks for the security guard saying how much you had missed him
It was like old times, you weren’t able to hang out ask much as before as you had your own schedule but you visited them when they also had no schedule
You would cook it jin, photograph with Tae, even showing J-Hope some dance moves
When you all MC’ed together, everyone was so happy to see all of you together
Army was so happy to see their boys beaming
Your fans were so happy seeing you so happy, saying how much you deserved it
Even though you knew you were going to get in trouble from straying from the lines, you still decided to tell jokes
Earning laughs from the boys and the audience, causing you to smile even more
If Army wasn’t in love with you before the show, they were now
Seeing how happy you made all the members
There were videos about you and the members
With some edits shipping you and Jungkook
People tweeting you telling you to get back with Jungkook
There were edits of how similar you and Jin were
And just edits of how happy the boys were with you
Army constantly asked you to be a part of Run, and sometimes you did
The first time you went on an episode, you won most of the games and had won the prize
The next episode was a team episode and your team had won
You were considered the lucky charm of any team and they would constantly fight over who’s team you would be on
Soon you received the name golden angel
You brought luck and laughs wherever you went
Seeing you so happy made Jungkook so happy, but it also hurt knowing he wasn’t with you
One day in the dorm it was just jungkook and you
There he told you how sorry he was and how much he missed you and he told you honestly that he’s in love with you
You told him that you loved him too but you weren’t ready to be with him, you’re career just started and he had yet to prove to you that we wouldn’t treat you the same way he had done before
He was heartbroken but understood
He was willing to spend the rest of your lives proving to you that he would cherish you like never before
You missed having him in your life and you hoped he was going to stay there forever no matter what that meant
