The Bangtan Gal Chapter 84- BTS Bon Voyage Season 1

Words: 16,000+

Genre: Big Jungkook fluff! Lots of fluffy moments with the members

Author's Note: Ah, I should say this now. I don't mean to be negative but I will not be writing about Hyuna anymore after I finish writing about Jen's collab with her. I got something to do with them for MAMA Awards 2016 but other than that, I think that'll be it. The reason is regarding what she's been up to on her IG, dating one of the guys involved in the burning sun scandal. I'm pretty much done and pretty disappointed. Also the same with writing about Seungri. The chapter with Jen meeting Big Bang with him in it will be the last of that. I haven't had any ideas or written anything else regarding Seungri from my old chapters years ago. So I just wanted to clear that up. 

OK! Let's move on to more positive matters. Please enjoy this fluffy chapter! This was SO fun to reread and edit as I remembered the fun memories of watching season 1. I can't wait to watch and write the other seasons with my OC in it! I hope you enjoy this! Let this hold you for a little bit while I focus on my other story and other things.

------

For the first episode of Bon Voyage, the members were seated together to do a live commentary for the show on V-Live. They went through their introductions and informed viewers that Jennie and V were not there with them today.

"V is filming his drama and Jennie is filming for a new show called Celebrity Womance," Jimin announced.

The members stated that today is the first broadcast of Bon Voyage and they wanted to watch it with ARMY. 

When the show began, it started with all eight members being given a booklet to reveal that their first trip was to Norway's Bergen.

"First, read the books and figure out what you'll do. But the most important thing is you have to pack. Since you're going to be visiting many countries, you won't be able to check-in luggage. So you can only take carry-on bags," they were told by the PD. "Leave behind the items that can't go abroad on the plane. It's currently 8:40. We'll give you 50 minutes. Start packing now,"

"Oh dear," Jen murmured as she watched the members scramble to pack.

"Jennie, you and V will be joining the rest of the members later due to your schedules in filming," PD told her as she nodded in response.

"How many pairs of underwear are you taking?" Jungkook asked Rapmon. "How many T-shirts are you taking? What should I wear as pants?"

"Just take the ones you wear comfortably all the time," his leader answered.

"Are we just taking one pair of shoes?

"Right. And also, avoid white shirts,"

Jungkook stared at him for a few seconds. No white shirts? That's his favorite thing to wear.

"Take shirts that are less obvious when dirty," Rapmon elucidated, putting his mind at ease.

"Grey," Jungkook answered.

"Right, take black and grey clothes."

Jennie watched as Jimin began to have a mental breakdown on what to pack.

"I really don't know what I'm supposed to take. I don't think I can finish within an hour!" Jimin laughed with a pair of pants in his hands.

"All right, breathe. I'll help you pack," Jennie spoke kindly and grabbed his bag.

She placed it on the floor and sat in front of it while he followed her movements. Taking the pants in his hands, he shoved it in the bag but looked at Jennie in surprise when she took it out.

"Wait," she said, taking everything out of the bag. "Don't just ball them in there like that. That will create less space,"

"What should I do?"

"Roll them up so you can put more things in the bag," she answered and began to roll up all of his clothing, including his underwear.

"You don't have to fold my underwear, I can do that," he laughed nervously

"As long as I lived with you guys, it's whatever. But here. You see how much space you have compared to what you did before?" she showed him his bag. 

She was right, there was a lot more space in it.

"Wow, that's a big difference. Now I can finally close it with no issues. Thanks, Ennie,"

Once it was announced that they had ten minutes left, the members began to panic further while V and Jennie stood in the kitchen.

"Why are you two going late?" the camera guy asked them.

"V is handsome so he's filming a drama!" Jimin jumped in the frame. V grabbed his wrist before he could hit him. Jimin turned to Jennie and gave her a clinging hug, causing her to laugh. "And Ennie here is filming a collab with Hyuna Noona."

"Jennie and Hyuna Noona have gotten quite close, huh? I always hear her Facetime her quite often," Jin said.

"Yes. Jennie is in her upcoming comeback. She was so excited when Hyuna Noona asked her," Jimin mentioned.

"Yeah, you should have seen her. She was jumping up on her bed. It was so cute," Jin laughed.

"Okay guys," Jen smiled, feeling her face heat up from being put on the spot. "But yeah, it's postponed. It sucks we won't be there with you guys,"

"Yes, our departure date is being postponed," V added. "But I'm a little bummed out," 

'V, Jennie, see you in Bergen'

After saying their goodbyes, and with the cameras off her, Jennie went on to meet up with Hyuna at Cube Entertainment for a dance rehearsal. Hyuna had asked her if she could be a part of her new comeback, How's This.

Once she sent her the song, Jen fell in love and was thrilled that she was asked to be a part of it. She remembered when she was first learning the choreography. It was fun and didn't even feel like they were doing choreography. And she loved how there were some free style parts in the song. The part where she had to shake her entire body smoothly moving down to the floor like she was driving a car was her favorite.

For today's meet up before they film the MV, Jen remembered that there will be some parts in their collab where they wanted to twerk and swing their hips around. So, she taught Hyuna some techniques to enhance the way she shakes her ass.

After stretching, Jennie put on Rihanna's Pour It Up.

Throw it up, throw it up (throw up)

Watch it all fall out (fall out)

"I'm not worried about the speed. I want to go slow and sensual for a moment," Jennie said, swaying side to side on the beat.

"Slow and sensual for you know who?" Hyuna giggled.

Jennie laughed, "You, Jimin, and V...always teasing me about my man,"

After joking around, Jennie proceeded to demonstrate, "All right, all eyes on us. Give em a show,"

She began to move her hips. "They can look but they damn sure can't touch. And then..."

She slowly goes down while raising her ass up and down in a light tempo. Hyuna watched her movements, studying her before following what she had done.

"Those hips of yours are your best friend...pop it...again...you're getting it...yassss," she cheered.

After practicing, they sat against the wall together, drinking water and eating lunch.

"Hey, have you twerked on Jungkook before?" Hyuna asked.

That flustered Jennie as she laughed it off, "Nah. Not yet,"

"Not yet? It looked like you have by the way you were moving."

"That's based on years of me dancing around. Regarding Jungkook, I think it'll be fun to do it one day. I think about him when I twerk now," she chuckled. "Angelina was always telling me to think about the guy you like. She was like 'Throw that ass back like he's watching you'. And then she got all dirty minded and claimed he won't keep his hands off me,"

"Hehe, she's not wrong, he'd be mesmerized. Both of you are coming of age, too. Has he been gentle?"

"Oh, that? We haven't yet. We're just going with the flow. When it happens, it'll happen,"

"He's passionate about you, you know. When you both are ready, I'm sure it'll be sweet. Talk to me if you need any advice for your first time,"

Jennie smiled at her words. "I will. You know, there is something different about you. You sound like you're in love. Is there someone I should know about? You have been looking happier than usual,"

"Did I make it obvious?" she covered her mouth.

"We are friends after all,"

"Ah...okay. I am seeing someone. I didn't know how to bring it up,"

That made Jennie squeal with joy, "Aw~! Really!? Who is he?"

"We recently started dating. He will be debuting soon. His name is E'Dawn. So far only you know. He's great. You have to meet him one day,"

"Oh yeah, definitely! Aw, someone is dating our Queen Hyuna. He really swept you off your feet, huh?"

"He really did,"

--------

On the plane to Norway, Jimin and Jungkook sat next to each other and Jimin proceeded to film. 

"Do you think V and Jennie will make it alone?" he asked.

"Jennie has the most experience with flying. V is lucky," Jungkook answered.

After arriving in Bergen and getting off the airport bus, the guys gathered their items. 

Jimin looked around the city in awe at the scenery. "Wow! So nice! The weather is beautiful too!" 

'Jimin is in love with Bergen'

The six members walked toward the water fountain to get a better view of the area and began to take pictures.

"I think I need to wear something warm. I am cold. Are you not cold? It's so cold," Jimin said and took a seat.

'10'

'9'

'8'

'7'

'6'

'5'

'4'

'3'

'2'

'1'

"Wait," he scrambled off his seat.

'Jimin realized something!'

"The bus left," he stated as he looked around frantically and ran off.

"He left his bag on the bus!" Rapmon told the others.

"The bus is gone," Jimin laughed, covering his mouth and walking around the bus stop. "I left my bag on the bus. I am in trouble now,"

"What is this? A movie?" Jin laughed under his white mask.

'How could you forget about your bag?'

Laughing off the embarrassment, Jimin went back to the members, mumbling how he forgot his bag. Yoongi laughed at the situation while J-Hope placed his hands in his pockets.

"This is crazy," J-Hope exclaimed. "You are driving me crazy! What's wrong with you? What should we do now?"

--------

Back in Korea, Jennie and V were filmed eating pizza together. Her phone buzzed and she glanced over to see that Suga was calling.

"Hey, what's up?" she answered casually.

"Smartie, you will not believe what just happened,"

She furrowed her eyebrows while V turned to her, wondering what was up.

"Let me put you on speaker," she took the phone away from her face and pressed the speaker button. She then placed the phone on the table, "What happened?"

"Jimin lost his bag on the bus," Suga laughed, dumbfounded by the situation.

"H-he lost his bag?" V exclaimed with a bewildered expression.

"What!?" She yelled. "Y'all just got there! What the fuck?"

"Jennie-ah," the staff softly scolded.

"Sorry," she quickly replied over Suga's chuckles.

"The bus was there for like ten minutes and he just noticed," the rapper explained to them. "The bus already left. He's freaking out,"

"Jesus...put him on the phone. I'll calm him down,"

"I'll put you two on speaker," Suga said and walked over to Jimin who was surrounded by the members, "It's Smartie and V,"

"Jennie! V! Jimin lost his bag," J-Hope laughed.

"This is not my day," Jimin whined.

"Jimin, first calm down because this happened to me twice," Jen said. "The bus couldn't have gotten that far. You guys are going to have to call the bus company. Now, relax. It's going to be fine. Breathe. One of you guys get the bus number and then go from there,"

"I can't believe this," Jimin shook his head.

"Jimin, it's okay," her patient and understanding voice made him feel better. "You are going to get your bag back. It happens. A lot of people lose their bags,"

While the guys had an emergency meeting on the situation, Rapmon began to make phone calls to see if he could track the bus down.

"I hope people are nice here," Suga said and laughed. "I lost things many times too. You won't find it,"

'Not helping at all'

But in the end, Jimin did manage to get his bag back as the day progressed thanks to one of the staff going with him to find it on the bus.

Settled in their place for three days in Bergen, the guys sat in the living room to figure out a room.

"Let's pick out the room. We have to decide who will sleep where," Jin announced.

"Hard to guess the result," Jungkook said.

"One room for three, two rooms for two," Rapmon informed them.

"Have one person sleep in the living room," Jin suggested.

"Wait, we forgot about V and Jennie," J-Hope brought up.

"Can Jennie and I have a room?" Jungkook asked with hope in his eyes.

The Golden Maknae also pondered how they would spend alone time together on this trip. If they were able to at all, that is.

"Absolutely not!" Jin bluntly remarked, making the members laugh. "You two are staying FAR away from rooming with each other on this trip."

"We're not going to do anything, hyung,"

"I didn't say you two were and I sure hope not! You two are coming of age, too. I am not ready for you two to be doing adult things," Jin rambled like it was a nightmare.

His complaining caused the boys to be amused. This was going to be some trip.

"Make sure to edit that out when this airs," Jimin teased, turning to the staff filming.

"Let's play Rock, Paper, Scissors," Suga suggested, thinking about the rooms.

"I am nervous! AHHHHHHHHHH!" J-Hope shouted.

"I don't want Rap Monster," Jin remarked, making everyone laugh.

His snoring wasn't the best to sleep next to. 

After playing, their rooms were settled. Rapmon & Jin, Suga & Jungkook, J-Hope, V & Jennie, while Jimin took the living room.

As the boys made dinner and secretly planned a surprise for Jungkook coming of age, Jungkook had some difficulty doing laundry and asked J-Hope for assistance. Once they were all settled in the living room for dinner, the guys sang happy coming of age day for the Golden Maknae while Rapmon walked out with a cake and two candles on top.

"I had no idea," Jungkook said with a smile and got playfully beaten up by his hyungs.

After blowing out the candles, the members cheered.

"Hey! Beat him up!" Jimin walked over to the couch and went on to give him a smack on the back.

Jungkook groaned in pain and rubbed the sore part of his back. He could never catch a break.

"You have to get perfume, a rose, and a kiss on the coming of age day. Who do you want to get it from?" Rapmon asked Jungkook.

It seemed like the Golden Maknae ignored his question, not wanting to be kissed by any of them. The person he wanted to kiss was still in Korea with V. Tomorrow couldn't get here fast enough.

"Now we all~ know who he wants to get a kiss from," Jimin teased, raising his eyebrows.

"Awwwwww~! He's blushing!" J-Hope laughed as he noticed that Jungkook lowered his head and was trying to fight his growing smile at the thought of her.

"I wonder who it could be," Jin pondered in a sarcastic tone.

"A very special person, I'm sure," Suga added.

"Jungkook is in love~!" Jimin sang.

"In love with who, I wonder," Rapmon continued to tease.

"I know! It's Jennie~!" J-Hope gleefully shouted.

"Jennie~! Jennie! Jennie! Jennie! Jennie~!" the guys chanted while clapping.

Jungkook's face had gotten flushed as they continued to tease him. 

"Guys..." the Golden Maknae murmured, laughing in embarrassment.

"Don't worry, she'll be here soon. And she can give you all the kisses you want," Rapmon smiled.

"Ah..." Jungkook covered his face.

-------

With Jennie and V, they were all packed and ready to head to the airport. Jen made sure everything was off in her room and as she walked out, V began to sing Happy coming of age day!

"No way..." she was genuinely surprised as a bright smile appeared on her lips. He danced around carefully with a red velvet cupcake in his hands that had one candle on top. "Aw, thanks V!"

After thinking of a wish, she took a deep breath and blew out the candle.

"Yay!" V cheered and handed her the cupcake.

"This is so cute," she took a bite and shared it with him.

"We all chipped in to buy you your favorite perfume and also a rose. You'll get a rose when we return from the trip, too. Now for your kiss!"

He cupped her face and gave her two big kisses on her cheeks and then her forehead as she giggled.

Gathering her bags, Jennie was asked if she was nervous about traveling.

"I'm with my best friend and soon we'll be with the rest of the guys. I'm happy and looking forward to the experience," she answered positively.

Getting in the van, the two friends were driven to the airport and were filmed being on their phones.

"Do I look okay without makeup?" V asked and brought up a peace sign for the camera filming them.

"You look fine~," she replied.

"Thanks, Ennie," he smiled at her and turned back to the camera. "The members left yesterday while Ennie and I had to stay behind due to our work schedules. But now we are finally leaving today,"

"We're excited~!"

She watched with a smile as V called his dad to let him know he was on his way to the airport.

"I'm with Jennie," he told him.

"Hello!" she greeted when V moved his camera to show her.

"Hello, Jennie. Watch over my son, please. And have fun,"

"I will, thank you,"

After he got off the phone, Jennie went on to Facetime her sisters, Vienna and Alani.

"Hey!" Vienna greeted.

"Hey! I'm filming but I wanted to say hi and let you guys know I'm on my way to the airport with V. We're going to Norway,"

'I'm filming' was just a simple way to let her sisters know not to say anything out of the ordinary like her relationship on camera. Although they weren't live it was still a precaution.

"Lucky! Take pictures, please,"

"Hello!" V waved.

"V~!" Vienna waved back.

"Hi V! Make sure Jennie doesn't get lost," Alani teased.

He giggled. "Okay, okay,"

Jen rolled her eyes, "They're annoying,"

"Will you two be all right traveling together?" the staff asked after she got off the phone.

"Absolutely. I'm here with V. I know I'm going to be all right," Jennie answered confidently.

At the airport, the two went on to get checked in for the connecting flight.

"I am grateful for Jennie being here. My English is still not that great. I am not quite sure where we are," the 95 Liner said on camera.

"You see that sign? Transfer. That's where we need to go," she pointed out.

"Tranz-fur," V spoke in English.

"Yep. Come on, we shouldn't be that far,"

"Ennie, do you want something to eat?" he asked before tripping.

"Whoa, be careful," she held onto him to help him regain his balance. Pulling away, she proceeded to walk with him, "Yeah, I should eat something,"

"Eating will give us some energy," he said and found a restaurant.

"What are you getting?"

"A breakfast sandwich,"

"I'll get one too. Do you want to try to ask them in English for it?"

"Just say, two breakfast sandwiches?"

"Yes. I'll get the same thing you get. It doesn't matter. Just tell them what kind of breakfast sandwich."

"Egg and sausage,"

"Okay," she walked up to the register with him

"What can I get you?" the cashier asked.

"Two egg and sausage...break-fast." V spoke in English as best he could.

"The sandwich?" the cashier clarified.

"Yes,"

"Two?"

"Yes,"

After V paid for their food, Jennie gave him a high five and praised him for his efforts. It made him feel good as a boxy smile appeared on his lips. She was always so supportive when he tried new things like this. After their safe flight, Jennie and V finally arrive in Bergen. With a camera, V filmed both of them walking as Jen threw up a peace sign.

"We have arrived~!" she announced.

"Wait for us, guys!"

Outside, they were given 300 Swedish Krona to get to the hotel.

"How much is this bill? Come on, tell me," V asked the staff as he tried to figure out how much the money was in won. But they wouldn't answer him.

"Let's check online. We should be able to see how much it is." Jen took out her phone.

"Good idea," V went on to check too. "Got it. I guess we don't have money for snacks. But we have to eat something though,"

Miss Bangtan watched him go to the bus and it seemed like he was trying to get on. 

"Oh wait we need to buy tickets," she told him. "The ticket booth is right here,"

"We have money," he told the driver but they would have to wait to use paper money to get a ticket.

"Bruh, this is why I would rather use my plastic instead of paper money," Jennie mumbled. "Jeesh. Okay, well we each have 150."

She walked to the bus staff member and asked, "Is it 150 for the bus fare?"

Once she was told yes and when V also translated it to the bus staff member's language, it seemed like they were going to be OK. After getting off the bus at their destination, the two looked around to see everyone dressed up for the holiday.

"They look awesome," V grinned.

"Hello~!" one lady waved at the camera.

"Hello!" Jennie and V waved.

"You look beautiful! I love your outfit. You all look very nice," Jennie complimented.

"Thank you, thank you,"

'Jennie making the locals happy with genuine compliments'

As the friends walked through the city, they were starting to get hungry.

"Ah. Friday?" V pointed out the restaurant.

"Aw man, I haven't had Fridays in a minute! Let's go," she grabbed his hand and started walking to the building.

He didn't need to be told twice. The food was calling his name.

"Is this a restaurant?" V asked.

"Yep!"

"What are you two doing here?" the camera guy asked, dumbfounded.

"Did we scare you?" V teased with a smile. "We won't use your credit card. Don't worry,"

"We got our visa cards," Jennie took out hers while V took out his card and sang a fanfare tune.

"Don't call them," he begged when they noticed the staff was trying to call and snitch on them. "Put your phone away, come on," 

"Come on, please? We really just want to eat," Jennie explained with a frown. "I'll treat you guys to food, too. Please?"

'You can't use your credit card. That's the rule'

'Not following the rule'

Finally seated at a booth, V, Jennie and the staff happily ate at Fridays. Jen helped herself to ribs and V devoured a burger and fries. As promised, the female member treated everyone by paying for their food.

"If they yell at me, they yell at me. It's whatever. But a chick gotta eat. I am not going to sit here and be hungry. Forget that. Eat to your heart's content," she shrugged on camera, prepared for a lecture.

After eating, Jennie and V found the cable station and sat down to wait for the members to arrive. 

"What's up!? We made it!" Jennie beamed once the boys got out of the cable car.

"This feels like a reunion. It's been two days!" J-Hope said. "It's awesome up there,"

"What did you two do?" Namjoon asked.

"We were waiting for you. Do you know what we were doing?" V asked.

"You gotta see his dance. It was so funny," Jen snickered while they all watched V dance around.

"Good job. Let's go," J-Hope laughed.

"Time for dinner," the staff notified them while they made their way outside.

When the cameras were off Jennie, the boys walked further ahead along with the staff. She, on the other hand, walked a bit slower, texting her family group chat to let them know she and V were safe and sound with the rest of the group.

Walking with V, Jungkook kept glancing over at Jennie as she walked ahead of them. He felt giddy and fidgety that she was finally here. Taehyung removed his arm around him and giggled when he noticed the Golden Maknae's body language.

"Go to her. They'll carefully edit out your cute moments," the 95 Liner gestured. "The boys aren't even paying much attention and are ahead of us anyway,"

Back with Jennie, she let out a light chuckle after reading her dad sending fire lyrics to the chat. It looks like she created a monster when getting him into K-Pop. Occasionally he would send her YouTube videos of songs that he had come across, too.

Putting her phone away, she proceeded to walk until she felt Jungkook wrap his arms around her from behind.

"Kookie..." she smiled to herself.

She felt him give her a quick kiss on the cheek and he then pulled away to happily walk next to her.

"I'm glad you and V made it safely. I missed you," he said with a grin, rubbing the back of his neck.

Excited to see him, she stopped walking, grabbed onto his jacket, and pulled him down slightly to kiss him on the lips. It was a quick but sweet kiss that made his heart flip. Surprised that she had kissed him so suddenly, his doe eyes widened before he let out a laugh.

"I missed you, too," she smiled up at him.

As they walked, he brushed his hand up against hers a few times before holding her hand while intertwining their fingers.

"Just for a little bit before we have to break apart for filming," he proposed as she walked closely with him.

V watched them from behind and giggled to himself. They looked cute and in their own little world. He couldn't help but sneak in a few pictures and a quick video to keep and release when they were ready to tell ARMY they were dating.

When they made it outside, JenKook broke apart and everyone discussed where they wanted to eat. Most places were packed because of the holiday and Rapmon thought it would be a good idea to split up. Seafood eaters and meat-eaters. Rapmon, Jimin, J-Hope, and Jennie went on to get meat while V, Jungkook, and Jin went to get seafood.

Following packing and departing Bergen, the group got on a boat for a tour of Norway's Sognefjord. Jennie sat with Jin and Namjoon at a table since there were five seats to a table. The rest of the members sat elsewhere, in their own little world. J-Hope began to take selfies with Suga, V, Jimin, and Jungkook at his table. Soon after, the Maknae Line took their own set of selfies and rambled about how guys don't check their selfies.

"I wonder how Jennie, Rapmon, and Jin are doing," J-Hope thought.

"I texted Jennie so we can play a game on our phones but she's not answering..." Jungkook frowned.

"She probably doesn't feel like talking to you. Leave the girl alone, jeez," Suga teased.

"Oh stop being mean," J-Hope chuckled.

"Ennie? She is probably sleeping. Don't worry," V guaranteed, easing Jungkook's worry.

'You're Correct V!'

The camera shot showed Jennie asleep with her head on Rapmon's shoulder. The leader was in the middle seat with Jin and Jennie sitting beside him. All three of them were napping as the staff briefly filmed their slumber.

'Sleeping Peacefully'

As time went by, Namjoon and Jin let her continue to rest while they went to get food. The reason is that she had stayed up longer than usual to catch up on an anime V got her into.

"Munchkin...?" J-Hope softly said, shaking her gently.

"Hm?" she murmured, slowly opening her eyes.

"It's time to eat. Come on,"

"Oh great, food," she stretched.

Following breakfast, Jennie went to check on J-Hope who was resting more often than usual. He didn't look so good.

"You all right?" she asked.

"Ah, I think I may be a little seasick. They say drowsiness is a sign. I'm not feeling good,"

"Here, drink some water. I'll see if I can buy some crackers or something. That will help. And we should go out to get some fresh air. Hopefully, you'll feel better then,"

The group went outside on the boat to check out the scenery. Jennie took many videos and photos of the beautiful vista. Her pictures were not doing the area justice. It was breathtaking.

With his camera, Jungkook turned to point it at Jennie who was enjoying the waterfall. The cool wind made her hair flow gracefully and he snapped away while she was oblivious.

"Pretty..." he approved as he looked at the shots he took of her.

After the five-hour boat ride, the members arrived in the small village of Flam. J-Hope wanted to take a group photo so Jennie went to look around for anyone nearby to ask. Both she and Jungkook spotted a woman and approached her.

"E-"

"Excuse me, can you take a picture?" Jungkook spoke in the English he remembered Jennie teaching him. 

He gestured to the lady as he pointed to himself and the rest of the members. Miss Bangtan looked at Jungkook, stunned. It had made her proud that he was sounding more confident in her language. And the lady was kind enough to snap some photos of the group.

"How did I do?" Jungkook asked Jennie in English with a grin.

"You keep surprising me. You sound great. And you said it confidently with no hesitation,"

"I wanted to impress you,"

"You do every day,"

The group was given free time to explore after eating and Taehyung had asked Jennie if she wanted to join him. She happily accepted and they went to walk outside, wondering where the others went.

"Okay, let's see where everyone went," he said as they walked together. "Ah, there."

Jennie looked over to see where he pointed out. It perplexed her that he could see Jin, Suga, and Jungkook so easily. She didn't notice at all as the trio were walking up the hill. He had better eyes than her, that's for sure.

"Jin hyung! Jungkook-ah! What are you doing up there!?" V shouted.

"Is that Taehyung?" Jin asked.

V then giggled and used one of the staff's mics to overhear what the three were saying.

"What are you doing?!" V shouted. "Stop taking so many pictures. What are you doing?"

"Let's just ignore him and go,"

"Ignore me and go!?" V laughed.

"That's not nice," Jen gasped.

"It's going to take him forever to get up here," Jin said.

"What do you mean forever!?" V shouted again.

"I think he can hear us,"

"I can hear you,"

"How can he hear what we're saying?" Jin looked bewildered.

"I can!"

"He's listening through the mic!" Suga pointed out as V laughed.

V couldn't hear them talk anymore and he realized that they turned off their mics.

"They're so mean, oh my gosh, Come on," Jennie said.

The duo explored the area, snapping pictures, and even came across some sheep.

"Aw! Look at them!" she pointed at the cute animals.

V took out some grass from the ground and started to wave it near the sheep, "You should eat this,"

But he failed to get the attention of the sheep as it looked away to resume eating.

"Whenever we split up, we all get back together except for Taehyung and Jennie. Those two are always wandering off. Jeez," Jimin complained. "Where did they go anyway?"

"I saw them earlier. I think they went to go see the sheep," the staff said.

'Of course, V and Jennie have tons of fun on their own'

The camera showed V and Jennie looking at a bike rental shop.

"Bike rental. Want to ride some bikes?" V proposed.

"Yes! Let's go!" she grabbed his hand and rushed over.

"Hi, bike rental?" V spoke in English.

"Yes," the staff nodded.

V and Jennie filled out their paperwork and picked out their helmets. He placed a pink helmet on Jennie's head and snapped it on for her.

"Is it secure?" he asked, making sure the strap wasn't too tight around her chin.

"Yep, thanks,"

With two red bikes, they rode around with ease.

"I see the guys," she told him.

"They rented bikes!" Jungkook pointed Taennie out in astonishment as he, J-Hope, and Jimin were shopping.

"How much was it?" Jimin asked.

"100 krona," V answered.

"That's pricey..." he murmured. "We need money to eat,"

"Give me a ride," Jungkook demanded V.

"Here, you can ride mine," Jennie gave him her bike.

After bike riding, Jennie and V took their bikes back and commenced to roam around again.

"Um...where'd everyone go?" she asked.

"Yeah, where is everyone? And where's my bag?" V looked around.

"Your bag?"

"Yeah, I can't find it. Maybe the cameraman has it," he hoped and went on to ask the staff.

The cameraman said he didn't have it and V ran his hands over his face, having a mental breakdown. Everything was in there including his passport and tickets.

"Okay, breathe. Relax. We'll find it," she held onto his arm.

It was starting to dawn on her how everybody was losing everything on this trip. It was exhausting. He just had his bag so what the heck is going on? It was weird. 

------------

The two sat across from each other on the train and V explained the situation to the guys.

"Should I go?" he asked.

"I think we should stay put for now," Rapmon responded.

"We need to find his bag quickly because the train is going to be departing soon and he needs his ticket and passport," Jen spoke. "We're not going to be able to move across the border,"

"He can move around Europe but he can't get on a plane to Korea," Suga added while Jennie rubbed her temples.

How troublesome...

Jungkook sighed. "Why do we keep losing things?"

Rapmon had left momentarily while the rest tried to weigh out their options. Once he returned, Jennie frowned as she saw how irritated V looked. He usually was smiling and optimistic, so this side was starting to scare her.

"I'll call the embassy," their leader said next to V by the window. "Hello? Hello. Is this the Yongsan office?"

"Aigoo..." J-Hope sighed.

While they rode the train, Rapmon informed them that they could get his passport but they would have to be there by 7pm. The issue with that is their ride doesn't end until 8pm. When the staff asked V to come with them for a moment, Rapmon and a production crew member took the opportunity to tell the rest that this was just a prank on V by the production crew.

"Are you serious!?" J-Hope exclaimed as they all laughed.

"Wooooow. They so messy for that," Jen shook her head.

"Why would you do this to him?" Suga laughed at the crew member.

Once V returned, he remained vexed as the others tried to act normal. Jen glanced at him a few times, giving him a sad smile.

"We're going to cross the border tomorrow," Rapmon said. "...and if he doesn't have a passport, they won't let him cross. If we can't go across, then we'll have to go back and buy tickets for us and all the crew again,"

"We could just leave Taehyung and one crew member behind," Jin suggested.

Jennie immediately frowned at the idea, "Absolutely not. I'm not leaving him behind. If that has to happen, I'll stay with him,"

There were two options. Stay with V or leave him behind and continue the trip. Jennie went on this trip with him and she was willing to stay behind and then come back on the trip with him if this wasn't an actual prank.

As the members discussed, V's expression got darker by the minute.

"We still have an hour, so let's wait it out," Suga tried to calm things down.

They all moved to different seats, this time with Jennie sitting next to V, in front of Jungkook.

"We're supposed to be having fun. Is this fun?" Rapmon flipped his phone in his hand, looking out the window.

"Everything has gone wrong," Jin sighed. "Fighting amongst ourselves isn't going to fix anything,"

"Let's stop talking about this for now," Suga said.

"Let's get back to shooting," Jungkook suggested.

When V was asked what he was going to do, he sunk down in his seat, "I just don't feel good,"

"Then you don't want to continue the shoot?" Jin asked.

'Oh no,' Jen glanced at V and Jin, feeling tension rising.

"Hey, Jin do you have gum? And let's not argue, okay? Come on. You're making me nervous. We're all upset here. Let's wait to film later," she spoke to try to change the subject before things turned ugly.

As of late when she felt nervous, she began to chew more gum to calm herself down.

"You want me to start shooting now?" V continued his conversation with Jin as he went into his pocket to hand Jennie his almost empty pack of gum.

"Oh, thanks Tae," she smiled, not expecting to get gum at all, and popped one in her mouth.

"Keep it. There's only two left in there," he responded and turned his attention back to Jin.

Okay, she got the gum but it seemed like these two were not going to stop this growing tension any time soon.

"Look, we're saying we should forget about this and just continue with the shoot," Jin answered him.

"I mean that you're all just making me feel horrible," V said with irritation growing in his voice.

"You lost your bag, why are you getting mad at us?"

"Do you want me to go home then!?" V abruptly raised his voice, making Jennie jump.

"Just go then,"

"I will,"

"Fine, get off,"

V got out of his seat and began storming off, causing Jennie to widen her eyes.

"Go,"

"Okay, have a nice trip,"

"Okay,"

"H-hey! Tae!" Jen called out, not expecting him to just storm off.

'Taehyung's mad...'

But then he suddenly walked back to the group with his bag.

"I'm back," he announced.

"Congratulations," Jin replied as they all cracked up.

"I knew it as soon as V started talking like that!" J-Hope giggled.

"Wait he knew we were pranking him? How?" Jennie asked.

'When did he figure it out...?'

Ten minutes ago, V left to go talk to one of the crew members. 

"Everyone's being really obvious. Is this a hidden camera thing? I know. It's really hard to act serious. My eyes aren't big for no reason. I can see everything they're doing. Namjoon started overreacting. The only two who weren't acting strange were Jennie and J-Hope."

Back to reality, V laughed at them.

"You guys are so bad at acting," he giggled.

"And this is why he's in a drama because his acting skills are off the charts," Jen praised.

"I almost believed you, Jennie, when you asked for the gum to ease your nerves. You weren't acting so strange as the rest,"

"It was fine until you started with the English," J-Hope pointed out to Rapmon.

"I knew that you were all acting," V said.

"So, you knew to begin with?" Jimin asked.

"Yeah, I knew. You and Ennie were the best," V told J-Hope. "You were just sitting still while Jennie was trying to calm things down like she normally does,"

"Every time I saw him, I wanted to laugh,"

"Namjoon and Yoongi...Yoongi was staring outside and laughing,"

"Who was the worst actor?"

"HIM. He was the worst actor," V pointed at Rapmon as everyone laughed. "The more you talk, the more your face cracks."

'Today's lesson: don't lose your passport'

'Second lesson: Just sit still'

'Third lesson: Try to calm things down'

---------------

Once they got off the train, they were greeted by a wonderful view of a waterfall.

"Should we take a group photo?" J-Hope suggested.

"YES! Gather around guys!" Jennie excitedly said.

"Do you know BTS?" Jin asked in English, making her laugh softly.

"1, 2, 3!" J-Hope counted down as Jennie posed with a big smile and a peace sign behind Rapmon.

Back inside the train, Jin and Jennie spent some time together and began to tell each other jokes.

"Do you know what a war between cows is called?" Jin asked. "War-mae~!"

Jennie liked his dad jokes and laughed with him.

"Ooh, I got one. Okay, okay. Listen to this. It's one of my favorites. What's Forrest Gump's password? One Forrest one," she laughed.

It took a few seconds for Jin to get the joke, remembering the famous "Run Forrest Run!" line in the movie. After figuring it out, he laughed with her.

"Ah, clever yet so cheesy,"

Back in the rooms, Jen chilled on the couch with Rapmon and V, on their phones. The rest of the members were setting up for dinner.

"Let me ask Ennie..." she heard Jimin say from the kitchen. He grabbed his Jimin cam and strolled over to her. "Ennie~!"

"Yes~?" she responded in the same tone, looking up from her phone.

"We don't know how to cook this rice. Can you cook it for us?"

"Yeah, sure," she got off the couch and walked over to the dining room table. She took a seat with him and they checked out the box. "Leave this to me. You guys did enough, I'll cook the rice,"

"You sure, Jennie?" J-Hope asked. "I can always make it,"

"Yeah, no worries," she took the box and went over to the kitchen.

Pulling up the translations for English, she found out the directions. She washed her hands and went to work, filling the pot with water and adding a spoonful of salt. Turning on the stove, she placed the pot on it and waited for it to boil. She played a few games on her phone until the water began to boil. Then, she proceeded to add the rice and began stirring.

Feeling a chin on her shoulder, she smiled softly and turned her head to see Jungkook behind her. He then kissed her nose and pulled away.

After cooking, BTS sat down to enjoy meat, gochujang stew, and rice to get a taste of Korea.

The next morning, they packed up and made their way to the airport.

"I'm not so sure I packed everything," Yoongi said, which made Jen stop walking to look at him, annoyed. He laughed nervously and stopped to turn back at her. "I don't have my iPad with me right now,"

Like the episode of The Office, Jennie looked at the camera that was filming them, unamused, and shook her head, so done with the fact that everybody kept losing everything. She was about to be at her limit. 

Jimin laughed while Jungkook said, "He keeps losing so many valuable things abroad,"

"You mean to frickin' tell me you forgot your iPad of all things? Do you know how large that thing is? You were just using it," Jennie exclaimed. "Check your bag,"

"Yeah, check it,"

Once Suga looked through his bag, it was not there and Jennie rubbed her temples, trying not to freak out.

"I remember leaving it out so I could carry it with my hands," Suga mentioned to them as he thought about what he did in the morning.

"BRUH!" Jennie stared at him in disbelief.

"You forgot it? Really?" Jin questioned.

"We can't go back. There's no way to get back," Jungkook said.

"I'll just go without it then," Suga said calmly.

"It's an iPad!" Jennie shouted, looking at him like he was crazy as he giggled at her reaction.

"Where did you leave it?" the staff asked. "At our hotel?"

"On top of the table," the rapper answered.

"How can he stay so calm when he lost something?" Jin wondered.

"I'd be freaking out. Imagine if I lost my phone," Jen shook her head.

"Ta-da~!" Jungkook revealed his iPad, making everyone laugh.

'He got me'

"Why are you tricking your members? You almost gave me a heart attack!" Jin scolded while Jungkook was cracking up, stomping around.

"I always have faith that I'll find my things somehow," Suga said and was given back his iPad.

"First it was Jimin then Rap Monster, then V, and now Suga. Let's see how far we can go," Jin anticipated who would lose something next.

------

After a 2 hour flight, almost all of the members arrived in Stockholm, Sweden. They arrived earlier than scheduled while V had to take a different plane. Bangtan decided to wait for him but it didn't seem like he was coming anytime soon due to his flight getting delayed. With Taehyung, he was exhausted as he waited.

"The other members are probably waiting for me, right? Are they waiting for me? They're worrying about me, right? They're probably like, 'Where's V? When is he coming?'. They can't do anything without me. So I have to go help them have fun." V rambled on.

'Believe what you want'

'Stretching his imagination'

After waiting an hour and 30 minutes, Bangtan decided that they wanted to go ahead. Jennie frowned at the idea and had a gut feeling that perhaps he should at least have one member waiting for him.

"I'll still wait for him. I don't feel comfortable just leaving him. You guys go on ahead, okay?" she said.

"Sweetheart, you don't have to wait, you know. He'll be fine. Let's just go," Jin gestured for her to follow them.

"Yeah, he's handsome and friendly. People will be nice to him when he arrives," Rapmon agreed with him.

She sighed and grabbed her phone to text him.

Jen: The guys want to just go to the hotel after waiting over an hour. I don't mind staying at the airport to wait for you.

V: It's OK Ennie. Go on ahead with the others. It's all right.

Jen: :(

V: :)

Jen: Are you sure?? I can stay

V: Go on ahead, Ennie :)

Jen: fineeee but plez lemme know when you arrive

V: I will!

"All right...I'll come with," she said after some hesitation.

The camera followed Jennie as she looked at it, "V, Please get here safely. I hope the flight will be smooth sailing. Ugh...I don't like when a member is left behind. I get anxious. I need some more gum to chew,"

When the members arrived in Sweden's capital city, Stockholm, the staff told them that there were three ways to get to the hotel from the airport. The airport bus, Arlanda Express, and public transportation. They were given an allowance for transportation and food and were told to split into teams of two while one team would be a mix of three. After playing Rock, Paper, Scissors, Jungkook, J-Hope, and Jennie were a team.

"Yes!" Jungkook said with more excitement than anticipated while Jennie let out a cute squeal and bounced happily when she saw she'll be with Jungkook and J-Hope.

Jungkook almost reached out for her but refrained due to the camera and the dreaded teasing from the guys. While this happened, the guys chuckled amongst themselves and gave the young couple a knowing look.

"They're so happy," Jimin smirked.

"You're going to be third-wheeling," Suga laughed loudly at J-Hope.

"Oh my gosh, noooo." Jennie waved her hands, shaking her head. "It won't be like that. And you know that,"

Jungkook chuckled bashfully and smiled shyly.

J-Hope giggled. "We just like teasing you guys. I'm glad Jennie is with us. She's good at finding where to go. If it was just Jungkook and me, who knows when we'll make it there,"

The other teams consisted of Jin & Jimin, and Suga & Rap Monster. J-Hope picked the option for them to take the airport bus to where they will be staying.

"We can do it," J-Hope high fived Jennie and Jungkook.

"Here give it here so I can find the bus on my phone," Jen requested and was handed the paper. It wasn't too long until they found it. "There we go,"

"Can you ask if it's the right bus?" J-Hope asked.

"Your English has improved, Hobi. You can do it," she encouraged.

Nodding to himself, he approached the driver as JenKook followed him.

"Excuse me," Hobi said in English. "Only card?"

"Yeah, we accept only cards," the driver said as Jennie watched J-Hope proudly.

"We don't have card," Jungkook added in English.

"Only money,"

"If you have only cash, you can pay inside to get tickets at the convenience store," the driver informed them.

"Awesome, thank you," Jen smiled.

"Ah, okay, okay, okay," J-Hope said as the three began to rush over to 7/11 to get their tickets.

After taking the bus, the trio made their way to the hotel. When they found the building, they spotted Rap Monster and Suga walking ahead of them.

"They're coming behind us!" Suga laughed and started running to the hotel with Rapmon. He even outran the cameraman.

"There's no prize with who gets there first, right? J-Hope asked. "Why is he running?"

The trio washed up in their hotel and put their things away. Once situated, they walked around to get something to eat. Making it to the subway station, they checked the signs to make sure they were going in the right direction.

"We're going to get off here at the central station," J-Hope said, looking at the map.

"Also, I have a map app that shows where to get off, too. We'll be fine," Jen said confidently.

"It's here. Do we really have to go to the mall?"

"Yes! I want to shop, too,"

"Yes, hyung," Jungkook smacked him on the back, making him laugh.

After getting off the subway, Jennie got a phone call from Jimin, "Yes~?"

"Ennie! Finally! Someone picked up. Where are you?" Jimin asked.

"I'm with J-Hope and Jungkook. We're headed to the mall,"

"Ah...Jin doesn't want to go out so I'm stuck here by myself,"

"You want to meet us at the mall? I can give you the address,"

"Send it. For now, I think I'll check out the city alone for a bit,"

"Okay, well text me if you're meeting us,"

"Okay. And Ennie, thanks for answering the phone,"

"Always~!"

After Jimin hung up, he let out a happy sigh and looked at the camera with a smile. "Ah...Jennie always answers her phone when I call. I should just call her first from now on. She's the sweetest, yeah? There was one time it was late at night and she still answered me when no one else did. She makes me feel important. I really appreciate her kindness,"

'Lesson of the day, call Miss Bangtan First'

Back to the trio, Jungkook pointed out the bus that they were supposed to take. All of a sudden, J-Hope began yelling and ran to the bus with Jungkook, leaving Jennie behind as she was cracking up.

"Bruh...they really just ran," she said to the camera.

Once they made it to the mall, they finally got the meatballs that they had been craving.

'Mission to find the shopping mall and eat meatballs, clear!'

Back with Jimin, he found an outlet store and went to the baby shoe section that had baby Timberlands and Nikes displayed.

"Is this how I'll feel when I get a baby? I bet Jungkook and Jennie will style their kids with Nike and Timberlands," he laughed to himself.

-------

Back with the trio, J-Hope and Jungkook were trying to look for an exit at the mall while Jen was on her phone texting Jimin after he told her he met up with Rapmon and Suga.

Jimin: I saw baby Timberlands and Nikes at a store. I bet you and Jungkook will dress your future babies in those

His bold message made her flustered as she quickly typed back.

Jen: JIMIN OMFG STOP

Jimin: KEKEKEKEKE

"There's an emergency exit," Jungkook pointed out and started walking to it. "Are we allowed to use that exit?"

That made Jen's ears perk up and snap her head up in his direction in alarm. "Emergency-wait Jungkook don't go through that door!"

"Excuse me, no no no!" a worker at the mall tried to warn but then the loud alarm went off.

Jungkook's doe eyes widened in fear as he quickly turned around, startled.

'What is this...I'm scared...'

'I'm in trouble'

"Oh my God, for crying out loud," she laughed and rushed up to him to pull him away from the door. "That's the emergency exit. That's not the exit to leave the mall. That is only for emergencies like a fire or something serious,"

Both J-Hope and Jungkook looked frightened while Jennie went up to the employee who was trying to restore order with the door.

"I'm so sorry," she apologized in English, "It's our first time here. They were trying to find the exit,"

"It's all right, the exit is that way," he pointed in the direction while the boys apologized in English.

As they went out, Jennie started laughing at Jungkook. "Your face though...that was priceless,"

"Not funny," Jungkook playfully glared at her.

"It was! You were like," she acted out his Jungshooked facial expression that made Hobi giggle loudly.

Poking the inside of his cheek, Jungkook mentally plotted for revenge. She was going to get it.

"It looks like we learned a lot today," J-Hope said as they crossed the street. They proceeded to act silly in public by dancing around. Birds were heard chirping loudly and he acknowledged it to Jungkook. "The birds seem to know you,"

"They do seem to recognize you Jeon Seagull," she added.

"Oh man, even the birds?" Jungkook played along, looking around to watch them fly.

"AHHHHHH!" Hobi yelled.

The boys played Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who would ask for directions. Jungkook won while Hobi let out one of his trademark noises in response.

"Hey, as many times as you guys would make me speak in Korean and ask for directions when I was still learning the language since our trainee days. It won't be that bad," Jennie mentioned. If anything, it helped her learn more.

Finding someone nice, Hobi asked a man in English. "Excuse me. Where is the Stockholm center station?"

"You're on the right way," the man replied kindly and pointed out the directions.

"Turn right and left?" Jungkook asked as they walked on.

"I didn't understand him," J-Hope admitted.

"Why didn't you get it?" Jungkook exclaimed, hitting him a few times.

"I don't know. Jennie, you heard him right? What did he say?"

"Goodness gracious..follow me. He said we need to go this way," she stated.

"Munchkin, I'm glad you're here,"

"Uh-huh. Shut it," she playfully glared at him while he giggled with Jungkook.

--------

Back at the hotel, the members were told that V got lost and hadn't arrived yet. The look of distress was shown on Jennie's face as she was on the phone with Jimin who let her know that V got lost.

"I knew I should have stayed and waited for him," she said with regret. "Is he okay? Do they know exactly where he is?"

"It seems like our managers are still calling him to ask for his location. Let me call him and we can be on a three-way call," Jimin said.

After a few rings, V answered.

"V!" she sighed. "Are you okay!?"

She heard him giggle, "Yes, I am fine. It's nice out here,"

She ended up laughing at his optimistic nature. Typical V. As long as he was all right.

"V, can you hear me?" Jimin asked.

"Yes, I can hear you and Jennie well,"

"Where are you? Do you know where you are?"

"No, I'm not sure," he answered. "Somewhere where there's nice scenery. Somewhere that seems like the perfect place to take our next album jacket photo,"

"Why are you so calm for someone who's lost?"

"Great question. I'm over here freaking out because of you," Jen added.

"Sorry to worry you. I can forgive everything because the scenery's so nice," V replied.

"That's a relief. We were worried you'd be depressed," Jimin assumed.

"This is awesome. It looks like goats are going to come out any second,"

The camera showed the screen split into three to show the three on the phone. Jimin and Jennie were laughing at his statement, happy that he seemed to be fine. Once off the phone, Jimin and Jennie let their respective groups know what's going on.

All the members regrouped to prepare for dinner. Once V walked in, he was greeted warmly by the members while Jen rushed up to hug him, making him stumble as he chuckled and embraced her. With her arms wrapped around his neck, she hugged him tightly.

"I'm okay, Ennie," he reassured.

"Thank goodness! Don't scare me like that. I'm so happy you're finally here," she said and pulled away.

"Something serious happened," Jungkook told him. "Namjoon lost his passport. What a mess,"

"Let's never go on a backpacking trip ever again," Suga said.

Once morning hit Stockholm, the group's plans for the day were to go to Gamla Stan. Unfortunately for Rapmon who couldn't find his passport, he had to make a trip to the Korean Embassy for travel documents. While it is an easy bus ride there, Jimin assumed his ticket wouldn't work because it was folded in half.

"Do I really have to walk if this ticket doesn't work?" Jimin asked.

"You need to walk. That's a matter of fact. Do we have to walk with you?" J-Hope asked.

"No,"

"Take a camera and find your own way,"

"Walking isn't a problem. But how do I get to Gamla Stan?"

"I can walk with you," Jennie offered.

"See Ennie is so kind. I don't want to be by myself," Jimin admitted.

"Let's still try your card first though. Even if it's folded, it should work,"

Thankfully it did and they made it in no time. The site brought back pleasant memories of the old photoshoots that they did. Jen stuck with Jin, J-Hope, and Jimin for more sightseeing and got ice cream on the way.

"You look happy now," the cameraman said.

"I'm feeling great!" Hobi made another silly sound and started dancing around.

Jin followed his movements as they 'powered up with ice cream' making Jimin and Jennie laugh.

"Jimin, Jennie, why don't you join us," Jin said.

Joining in, she made a silly sound and danced around, acting extra just like Jin and Hobi who joined her.

"Your turn," she gestured to Jimin, who did a toned-down version.

Finished with exploring, the group decided to go back to the restaurant they ate at back during their shoot for BTS NOW.

"Make sure you don't get anything with pineapple this time," J-Hope reached over to grab Jennie's hand.

"I'll be careful," she smiled.

The last time they were here, she ate pizza with pineapple and it ended up giving her a severe allergic reaction. If it wasn't for J-Hope noticing, who knows what would have happened? Since that day, pineapples were a big no no.

While sitting and waiting for Rapmon to arrive, Jennie watched Jungkook and Jimin arm wrestle. As soon as they began, Jungkook slammed his hand down effortlessly. The way Jimin looked, he had to sit there for a moment and contemplate life. It was hilarious.

"Now me," Jin offered.

"Just one loss per day, please," Jimin replied, feeling defeated.

"I'll take you on," Jennie offered and grabbed his hand.

"3...2...1, start!" Jin announced as they gripped hands and tried to place it down.

It was a slow start as Jen's hand was slowly getting lower. But then she fought back and Jin found his hand getting closer to the table.

"I win!" she cheered.

"Ah, you and Jungkook are too strong. What has he been teaching you? Your arm is getting muscular," Jin wondered while Jungkook high fived her.

"A lot of great things," she proudly said.

"Are they safe for work?" Jimin teased.

Jungkook pretended not to hear his response while Jennie looked at him in alarm.

"PARK FRICKIN JIMIN!" she kicked him, making him giggle.

--------

After eating and meeting up with Namjoon, the members split up again. This time, Jennie went by herself with a cameraman to check out some women's clothing shops while the guys were more interested in shopping for men's clothes.

"Are you getting flustered? Sorry," she grinned sheepishly when the camera guy awkwardly filmed while she was in the bra section of a women's clothing store.

Following her browsing, she went on to purchase a pair of earrings and went on to walk outside. She had noticed that while she was walking, a small crowd began to follow her. She heard giggling and hushed conversations. Curious, she turned around.

Oh, what do you know? Sasaengs...

"Jennie! We finally found you!" one of them called out loudly, making her flinch. The booming sound of her name made her blood run cold.

'Why me?' she thought and she proceeded to walk while the cameraman stopped filming.

"Hey! Why are you ignoring us!? Turn around and say hi!"

Rolling her eyes, she turned back around, trying to keep her annoyance in check. "Can you please stop following me?"

They laughed and replied no, which made her irritated.

"Jennie, we need to leave this area quickly," the cameraman advised and began to speedwalk with her.

The sasaengs continued following them while one was on the phone, "She's here on this street,"

That made her nervous. Who were they talking to? How many were they?

The staff told her to just run and she followed his advice, dashing away with her bags. She heard screaming and shouting of her name along with loud footsteps running after her. Never in her life had she been chased like this. This was not cool. At all.

'All I wanted was to shop...' she thought.

If they approached her differently, that would be fine but to follow her everywhere and shout her name was too much.

"Damn. My phone died! I can't take a video!" a sasaeng said as he put the dead phone back in his pocket.

"Come on, we can't let her get away!"

Turning a corner, Jennie rushed up the sidewalk but ended up tripping and dropping her bags. Falling on the ground, she landed on her right wrist and yelled out in pain.

"Shit!" she hissed, gripping her wrist. "That didn't feel right,"

"Are you okay!?" a local exclaimed and rushed over to her.

"Yeah...yeah..." she grunted and sat up.

She took a look at her wrist and it was in intense pain with the way she fell on it. At least it wasn't broken. But the ground scraped her skin and it was bleeding.

"Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"Jennie!" the cameraman found her and looked in alarm at what had happened.

She quickly explained the situation and told them that her wrist was hurting. She just hoped and prayed it wasn't sprained. The sasaengs had found the trio and continued to record. They must have been some of those rich sasaengs that bought information on their flights and followed her here. Jen wondered if the others were stalked.

"Oh, she's hurt," one of them said with fake concern.

"Did Jennie learn her lesson not to ignore us? Maybe if you paid attention to us this wouldn't have happened,"

That struck a nerve as anger boiled through her veins, getting ready to cuss them out. She began to shake and got up to her feet while the local sensed something was wrong and threatened to call the police if the sasaengs didn't leave. That scared them off and made them run away. 

After thanking the local for helping, Jennie's wrist was checked out while the staff informed the rest of the team about what had happened. 

Thankfully it wasn't sprained. Her ligaments weren't torn or pulled, but the wrist was still hurt, and she was told to put ice on it. Jen became upset when she was informed that the others were chased, too.

So long peaceful days...

"This is why we can't have nice things...watch this ruin fan interaction," she rolled her eyes and placed the bag of ice on her wrist. "Man, this hurts..."

Back at the hotel, she walked in, displeased as the boys looked alarmed at the sight. Her clothes were a little dirty from falling on the ground and there was ice on her wrist.

"A-Are you okay!?" Jungkook rushed up to her. "What's wrong!? Why do you have ice on your wrist!?"

"What the hell happened, Jennifer?" Yoongi demanded as the rest rushed over to her.

The staff sat everyone down with the cameras off and explained the events that transpired. The mood in the room went south and Jennie felt thick tension coming from Yoongi, Taehyung, and Jungkook.

Pissed, Yoongi stood up and stormed off to take a walk. He needed some air. If not, he was going to throw something. He was infuriated that she had gotten hurt.

"Y-Yoongi!" Jennie exclaimed as a few staff members went after him to make sure he didn't do anything rash.

"Why did they have to go so far..." Taehyung growled, clenching his fists.

When it came to her, everyone gathered into the Jennie protection squad. It killed them to see her like this and never wanted to experience this again. 

Jungkook held her in his arms protectively on the couch, still upset that she had gotten hurt. Holding her tight, he blinked the frustrated tears away as he thought about how helpless he felt about this.

"I'm so sick of this...this shouldn't have happened..." Jungkook grumbled, feeling angry about the situation.

Rapmon felt guilty and began to blame himself for what happened. But Jennie had reassured them all that things were okay and they shouldn't blame themselves or cry about it. Jimin's expression after he saw her hurt was scary. He was furious. The intense glare he had while looking at the floor, made her stomach drop.

"Is it sprained?" Hobi asked in a serious tone. Happy voice gone, she heard the fear and concern in his voice instead.

"No, just sore. I landed on it harshly. It hurts but as long as I place ice on it, I should be fine," she answered.

"Should we just end the trip?" Jimin pondered, trying to keep his temper in check.

"They went too far..." Jin shook his head. "How could they...to my daughter? This is unforgivable,"

"Hey, no. I don't want this trip to go south because of what happened," she reassured. "Let's continue. I'm going to be fine,"

"Are you sure?" Rapmon asked.

"Yes. I appreciate you guys,"

Once Yoongi returned with a cool head, he asked where Jennie was when the guys were making dinner. Walking into the room she was in, he found her resting on her bed and his eyes softened.

'This kid...' he sighed.

Hearing him come in, she opened her eyes and sat up.

"There you are. I was worried," she spoke as he sat on her bed.

"Sorry that I stormed off like that..." he murmured.

"It's all right,"

"Are you sure you are all right?"

"I'm okay," she calmly responded. "And don't say you should have come with me or something. Everybody got chased. I'm just the only one that lost their footing,"

Yoongi lifted his hand and gave her a gentle head pat. He rested his palm on top of her hair and looked into her eyes. What he did felt comforting and she let his hand stay there on her hair.

Once dinner was ready, Yoongi insisted on feeding her.

"I can feed myself y'know. My left hand is fine," she chuckled.

"Just eat, smartie,"

Amused, she took a bite of meat he picked up for her and let him feed her for the night.

------

The next morning, Jen's wrist was feeling a little better from yesterday as the members were all in a better mood, moving on from yesterday's unfortunate events. Jin and Hobi tended her wrist and held her bags as they went on to take a cruise to Helsinki.

"Is this your first time on a cruise?" the camera guy asked her.

"Nah, I've been on a few before. My family likes going on cruises during the summer. I'm super excited to be on one with the guys. It's been years!" she said excitedly.

As the group walked inside, they looked around, astonished at how nice the cruise looked. They gathered inside the elevator, admiring how huge the place was. While waiting in the packed elevator, Jungkook leaned against the wall.

"I'm hot," he said.

"I know," Jennie replied, feeling the humidity.

The couple locked eyes after her statement. He grinned and raised an eyebrow in a teasing manner.

"So, I make you hot?"

'Now he knows damn well I didn't mean it like THAT.' Jennie thought as she tried to think of how to get out of him trying to tease her.

"I meant I feel hot, too," she tried to explain herself.

"By me?"

"The elevator,"

"Because I'm here,"

She sighed loudly while he let out a giggle.

"You didn't deny it," he went on.

She playfully smacked his arm, "You play too much,"

"It's okay, I would be hot for me too if I were you," he added while she covered her face.

"You're annoying~!"

Jennie, Yoongi, Jimin, and Taehyung were in one room while Jungkook, Namjoon, Jin, and Hobi were in the other. After unpacking, they headed over to the deck to take more pictures, enjoying the deep blue ocean and scenery.

The director went to buy beer for them, which got them excited. But although Jen was the legal drinking age in Korea, she didn't want to drink alcohol yet.

"I can't drink beer," V said. "Can I have strawberry juice?"

"I'll take some juice, too." Jennie requested.

After dancing for the drinks, the director handed them their beverages.

"You're not drinking?" Jin asked her.

"Nah, I'm waiting until I'm 21 in America to drink,"

"Boo, party pooper,"

"You damn right, I am. No peer pressure in sight," she stuck her tongue out at him.

Gathering around, they made a toast.

"It's our first time ever on camera. For BTS' youth! For BTS' young forever. Young forever!" Rapmon announced.

"Cheers!"

"Oh look. It's you," Jennie pointed out the seagulls flying, making Jungkook laugh.

"They're flying low today, huh?" Jin said as she agreed.

After going inside, the staff called all the members in for an emergency meeting. Jennie sat in between Yoongi and Rapmon, awaiting the worst.

"We got you together during your rest because we have an urgent matter to discuss. Rap Monster, let's..."

"Me? Why are you scaring me?" Rapmon spoke up.

"Let's talk alone," the director told him.

"Did you lose something again?" Jin wondered.

After waiting for Rapmon to come back, he let them know about the bad news. He couldn't use his travel documents and would have to leave the boat.

"Why did I lose my passport?" he sighed, running a hand over his face.

The members tried to make him feel better by telling him it was bad for them too since it won't be the same.

"I'm bummed. I don't want you to leave," Jen frowned.

"This was supposed to be our trip," Tae added. "It doesn't mean anything if one of us isn't here. Let's curse!"

"Jennie curses the most. I volunteer her," Jimin called out.

"Jungkook will do that," Jin pointed to him and turned to the cameraman. "Edit it out for us."

"Ah...let's be careful," Jungkook laughed, not wanting to get in trouble.

"Smartie, you curse the most. If you could would you?" Suga asked her.

"No, I got scolded when I said fuck on camera," she replied and covered her mouth.

Once she blurted out the word, the group cackled loudly, clapping their hands.

"Good job," Jin laughed.

"Jennie..." the staff scolded playfully.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It slipped," she covered her face, embarrassed.

"Ah...too bad," Jin said, thinking about the situation after the laughter died down.

"I can't blame anyone but me," Rapmon sighed.

"Yeah, it's your fault," Jungkook teased and Rapmon retaliated by standing up to playfully hit him.

"Say something Jungkook," J-Hope said.

"Oh man...our leader," the Golden Maknae began, making everyone laugh.

"I'm going to miss you," Jennie wrapped her arms around Rapmon and gave him a side hug. 

He wrapped his arm around her and hugged back, pulling her close.

"It'll be okay, Nini," he reassured her.

After suggesting to do a cheer, the members put their hands together and shouted, "BTS!"

----------

Filming stopped for the day and JenKook wanted to take advantage by having a mini date on the cruise.

"We'll be back," Jen stood up with Jungkook.

"Where are you two going?" Suga asked.

"Exploring,"

"Do I need to chaperone?" Jin offered.

"Noooooooo, you do not!" V quickly stopped Jin as they left.

Jungkook let out a breath of relief and stood with her outside the door. "Finally,"

"Where to first?" she smiled up at him.

"Let's walk around the ship and see what we like," he proceeded to walk with her, holding her hand.

A while later, Jungkook spotted an arcade and happily walked in with her to play a few games. There they saw Jin and Taehyung. Tae was on a racing game and Jungkook joined in while Jin played Pac Man with Jennie. Jin had beaten her high score and jumped around in excitement. He then proceeded to perform his traffic dance. But then once Jen beat his score, she did her own version of his traffic dance, making him laugh hard.

There was a cameraman with them to film some bonus content as they continued to game. As the night went on, Jennie touched her back pocket and noticed that her phone wasn't there anymore.

"Oh no..." she felt her life flash before her eyes and frantically checked all of her pockets.

"Sweetheart, what's wrong?" Jin asked with worry.

"I-I can't find my phone," she said with panic in her voice.

"Where was the last time you had it?" Jungkook asked.

"It was right in my pocket, what the heck?!" she looked around the arcade.

"Ah, it's just a phone. You shouldn't be having your face stuck in it all the time," Jin joked.

"Okay but important stuff is on that phone and if it ends up in the wrong hands and somebody gets in it and finds certain pictures, issa wrap!" she stressed. "That's my life right there, I want my phone back,"

"What kind of pictures are we talking about?" Jin followed her on her quest for her phone.

"My boyfriend!" she rubbed her temples, getting frustrated as she tried to keep her emotions in check. Exhaling sharply, she calmly said, "Please, just help me try to find it,"

"All right, all right,"

While those two scrambled to try to find her phone, Jungkook stood with the camera guy, laughing to himself. Taking out her phone from his pocket, he revealed it as a hidden camera prank.

"I wonder when I should tell her," the mischievous boy wondered.

'Why did Jungkook take her phone?'

The camera rewinded back to when Jennie had said, "I'd be freaking out. Imagine if I lost my phone," during the time Yoongi lost his iPad. Then fast forward to when she teased Jungkook by mocking his 'Jungshooked' facial expression after he accidentally went to the emergency exit at the mall with her and J-Hope. Jungkook had plotted revenge since.

'Miss Bangtan is getting angry...'

After 30 minutes, there was no phone and she had to calm herself down as frustration became noticeable on her face. Jungkook kept his poker face on by looking concerned and tried to help "find" her phone. They asked staff members but they couldn't find it. And then they asked the cruise ship members but there was no phone found.

"This is frickin' ridiculous! It was right in my pocket, what the heck?!" she complained, pacing around the arcade.

"You are overlooking. I'm sure it'll pop up," V reassured.

As time went by, she went on to search for the phone but with no luck until Jungkook strolled over to her watching Jin and V play air hockey, and revealed her phone in his hands.

"Is that my-YOU JERK!" she jumped on his back and wrapped her arms around his neck.

He laughed as she tried to put him in a headlock but he was stronger and pulled her arms away and dropped her down on the ground gently.

"You're annoying~! Why would you do that!?" she complained before getting lifted back up to her feet.

"That's for making fun of me being scared I went through the emergency exit," he smiled victoriously and gave her the phone.

"Woooooow! It's like that now?" she laughed.

"He is always messing with us. You're lucky she didn't kick you," Jin said, happy that her phone was in her hands.

V and Jin turned in for the night while JenKook resumed playing games, without any cameras. After another half hour, he walked her back to her room.

"Good night," he leaned down to kiss her forehead softly.

"Good night, Kookie," she watched as he smiled and walked to his room.

She sighed, feeling content on the evening she shared with him, and turned to the door about to take out her room key.

"Jagi,"

"Hm?" she turned from the door to see he had walked back to her.

He took a few long strides to her and cupped her face, pressing his lips against hers. As he smooched her, she found herself walking back until her back gently hit the door. His hands traveled down to her waist and pulled her close while she wrapped her arms around his neck, smiling into the kiss. She was so happy with this man. Nothing was going to ruin this moment.

Pulling away, he pressed his forehead against hers as they caught their breath.

"I love you," he said softly, making her heart flip.

"I love you, too,"

He pulled away and stepped back while holding one of her hands. Giving her a big smile that always made her swoon, he released her hand and began walking backward. 

"I'll see you tomorrow, baby girl,"

"Y-yeah, see you tomorrow," she bit her lower lip softly as her face felt flushed. 

When he turned around and walked in the direction of his room, she felt giddy and went inside her room.

"I guess you had a great time," V giggled as he saw her happy expression.

"You two were kissing, weren't you?" Jimin teased, smiling happily that they were able to get some alone time on the trip.

"N-no..." she climbed on top of her bed.

"They definitely were," Suga chuckled. 

"Good night!" she pulled the covers over her head as she heard them laugh wholeheartedly.

--------

The next day, they arrived in Finland, all packed and ready. They met up with Rapmon at the airport, still bummed that he was leaving. For Finland, they would be in a camping car and sleep at the campsites. The staff informed them that they would be spending three days and two nights in Finland. They would also be able to cook in the car. After giving the members handshakes, Rapmon pulled Jennie in for a tight hug.

"Be safe," she smiled sadly and left with the crew.

They got settled into the camping car and began their journey which will take around six hours to the campsite. To pass the time, the group played music and card games. During their break on the road, they were given 600 Euros to spend and made their way to the supermarket.

"Our puppy. Puppy Jungkook. Paw," J-Hope said and put out his hand.

Jungkook slapped it in response, pretending to be a puppy.

"Foot," Jin stated. Jungkook went on to lift his leg up to hit Jin's hand and they ended up laughing.

"Head,"

Jungkook leaned over and hit his hand with his head.

'Scary but cute...'

Jennie gave her boyfriend the side eye as she watched him act silly while walking into the market.

"Jungkook, paw," he was told again and did it

As the group continued to shop, Jungkook found some toys and wore his sunglasses over his nose.

"Jungkook's toy," V pointed out.

"Jungkook's toy," Jin repeated. "Here...JK. JK. Paw. JK, hand," he stuck out his hand while Jungkook touched it in response.

Jennie giggled. He looked cute acting like that. As the camera went over to Jimin and Suga searching for salmon, she put her hand in Jungkook's hair and ruffled it. After much consideration, she decided that she wanted to play along with this silly game.

"Jungkook, head," she said, putting out her hand for him.

Leaning down, he connected his head lightly to her hand. Acting like a puppy, he went on to nuzzle into her as she let out a soft laugh.

Arriving at the campsite, the members opened up the shade to cover themselves from the rain and Yoongi set the fire so they could prepare to make meat for dinner. It was a struggle to get the fire started but they ended up making it work. Being extra, Jungkook kneeled and began fanning the fire with a paper plate to get it to ignite.

'Jungkook is becoming a camping master'

"It's done! We did it," J-Hope announced as it looked like the fire was coming together.

"I think we're winning. Jungkook is good at fanning," Suga praised.

"It looks like fireworks,"

"I can start a fire, anywhere," Jungkook proudly said.

"Wow. I'm fully convinced that Jungkook is a fire bender from the fire nation," Jennie looked on, amazed. "Prince Zuko, I'm pleased to meet your acquaintance,"

"We're very much acquainted, Mai," he replied with a knowing look.

His reply made her laugh as they thought about Avatar while V jumped with excitement and said, "Hey, I understood that reference!"

During the night, Jungkook couldn't sleep as five members including himself were all in one bed. Perhaps that wasn't the smartest decision. Meanwhile, Jennie, couldn't sleep much either and grabbed her earbuds to watch an episode of Family Guy on her phone.

Buzz Buzz Buzz

JK: u awake?

Jen: yep. Can't sleep :(

JK: can i sleep with u?

Jen: please

After a moment, she felt the covers gently pulled off her and was met with warm body heat as Jungkook became a big spoon for her. She turned around and snuggled into him while he pulled her close. That night was easily the best they slept this entire trip.

In the morning, the members went for a quick trip to the beach. After getting back in the car, everyone was inside the car except for Jimin as the staff wanted to teach him a lesson for being tardy. They watched as Jimin ran after the car and Jen felt bad for him.

Once he was in front of the car, J-Hope asked, "Jimin, did you learn your lesson? Your habit of being tardy?"

"What do you mean habit? I went to the bathroom!" he laughed.

"Did you fix your habit or not?"

"I will move faster," he said and was finally let inside.

As the car ride went on, the Maknae line lay in bed together, reading on their phones. Then the camera showed them asleep. Jimin slept next to Jennie while she and V had their heads on Jungkook's chest. They made it to Rovaniemi, Finland, and were told to get a quick bite to eat and buy anything they needed so they could head back to the road.

As they walked, Jungkook and Jin held hands and at a rapid rate, swung their hands up and down. Then Jungkook grabbed onto Hobi's hand to try to do the same thing.

"I think it will feel strange to lock hands with another man," Hobi replied with a chuckle.

Poor V tried to get away from Jin wanting to hold hands. The oldest member then went over to Jennie who happily accepted and swung their hands up and down at a fast pace.

After making it back to camp, they put on biking helmets and were told they'd be riding their bikes over to the bridge. Jungkook was the leader of the bike trail and everyone had a 360 camera attached to their bikes.

When they made it to the spot, they met up with a tour guide who told them to ride over to the bridge. The area was beautiful as it was cloudy which showed bits of the blue sky.

Making it to an outside theater, Jimin and Jungkook went on to perform Jimin's part in Save Me. And Jungkook of course, being silly, dramatically went to the ground while performing his part, making everyone laugh. 

They went to the Angry Birds playground and Jennie watched Jimin, Jin, and V play against some Finland elementary school kids in a soccer game. She stood with the rest to watch.

"V..." she laughed, covering her mouth as he ran around, happy that he scored against an elementary school student. Turning to the camera, she said, "I usually let the kids win when I play games with them."

The game ended in a tie and she applauded everyone's performance. 

"Awesome job!" she high fived all the kids.

Since it rained too much, they returned their bikes and made plans to relax in a sauna.

'BTS' Traditional Finland Sauna Talk'

As the guys talked amongst themselves about the traditions of the sauna, Jin brought up Jennie.

"I wonder how Jennie is doing, right now," he said.

"Probably glad to get away from all of you," Suga replied as they laughed.

With Jennie, she was alone in her sauna with her Jennie cam. She sighed in contentment and stretched with her robe on securely.

"I'm aloneeeee," she laughed and twirled around. "Let me make it hotter in here," she grabbed some water and poured it as the steam came out.

"This is a good time to see if I can Facetime my friends. And then I'll take my phone out, I don't want it to get damaged from the heat," she went on to call Hayoon and put her on speaker while sweat began to look visible on her skin. "Let's see if she'll answer,"

"Jennie~!" a pleasant voice was heard from her phone.

"Yoonie! I miss you!"

"I miss you, too! How is your trip!? Where are you, now?"

"We're in Finland. I'm in a sauna. The guys are in another sauna. I have my own."

"Ah, so lucky. How is the weather there?"

"Cold. But it's beautiful here. Maybe G-Friend can visit here one day,"

"That would be nice,"

"Did you eat today?"

"I ate a lot. I'm so stuffed. I just had noodles not too long ago,"

"Take out?"

"Yes, it was at this noodle place I came across. I will take you there sometime,"

After the quick chat, she got out of the sauna, feeling refreshed.

She was informed by the guys that they were planning to go into the icy cold water of the lake since it was a tradition in Finland.

"Are we all going in together?" she asked.

"Groups. First up is Jimin and V," Suga told her.

"There are no crocodiles, right?" Jungkook asked.

"I sure hope not," Jennie widened her eyes.

Jimin and V changed into shorts and a T-shirt. They held hands, preparing to walk in the lake. 

"Let me just dip my foot in," Jimin said, checking the temperature. As soon as he did, he yelled automatically from the chilling water.

"Go up to your chest and then dunk your head in," Suga said while the director got in the water to film them.

"I'm okay with it now because the director went in," V said.

"I hope our friendship lasts forever. BTS, let's make it big!" Jimin cheered and began to walk in the water with him.

Once they dunked their heads in, they quickly rose, soaked.

'First round success with the 95 bros'

They quickly rushed into the hot tub and got in to warm up.

"It's decent. You should all go in," Jimin told them.

"Ooooo. I want to do it!" Jennie said on camera with a black shirt and shorts on.

"Since Smartie is willing to go in, let her pick who she wants to go in with," Suga proposed.

"That's fair," J-Hope nodded in agreement.

"Oh, man. Who's it gonna be?" Jimin looked on with anticipation.

She studied each of them and suddenly remembered how they still wanted her to call them oppa once in a while. Knowing it would make them happy, she decided that she'd say it for this moment.

'Okay. I can do it.' she said to herself, knowing exactly who she wanted to choose.

Smiling brightly, she turned her attention to J-Hope.

"I want to go in with Hobi oppa," she said, feeling her cheeks warm up from saying the word.

All they heard was 'Hobi oppa' as the boys started to yell and scream in excitement. Jimin and Jin grabbed onto J-Hope and began to shake him. The group's sunshine couldn't stop smiling and placed a hand over his heart.

"Come on, you can't say no to that!" Suga laughed.

"He's so happy, look at him!" Jungkook giggled, patting J-Hope on the back.

The genuine happiness was radiating off the members as she felt her heart soar at how joyful they felt. While celebrating, J-Hope screamed in happiness and jumped around.

"I'm so happy she said it again," V clapped.

J-Hope pulled away from the boys and ran up to pick Jennie up in his arms for a hug. He spun her around as she laughed.

"Of course, I will go in with you, munchkin! Let's go!" he beamed and set her down. 

Holding onto her hand, they slowly made their way to the lake.

Exhaling, she said, "Okay. Let us continue to be happy and positive,"

"We will continue to protect each other and dance our hearts out," he added.

"And let's always dance together and create dance covers for ARMY,"

"And one day rap together," he smiled down at her.

"Yes. Sounds like a plan. All right. Let's just rush in. Three...two...one...go!"

They ran into the icy water and J-Hope started screaming at how cold it was. The lake was colder than Jen expected but she fought through it. The rest watched from the balcony, laughing hysterically.

"It's okay!" she laughed as his whoops and hollers got louder once they got deeper into the water. She grabbed his hands and held them as they faced each other while shivering. 

"We'll do it quickly. Ready?" she asked and got a nod in response.

They went underwater for a moment and rose up to the surface as his screaming continued. Grabbing her hand, he rushed out of the lake. He made a big splash as he hopped into the hot tub and she quickly followed, feeling the warm water relax her.

"We did it!" she high fived him.

After playing another round of the game, Jimin and Suga went in while everyone else watched from the balcony.

"Let me get a preview," Suga dipped his foot in and quickly went out, making Jimin laugh. He was shocked at the temperature and exclaimed, "You said it was okay! Are you crazy? This isn't right!"

"Say something before you go in!" Jennie shouted out.

"Park Jimin! I'm going to kill you~!" he shouted and marched right into the water. 

He dragged Jimin in with him, making him fall in the water.

After they got out, Jin asked, "How is it?"

"The water makes you humble," Suga answered and ran to the hot tub.

"Who didn't go in?" Jimin asked.

"Jin and Jungkook," Jennie pointed out.

The last two headed over to the lake, dressed in black shirts and swim shorts. They shouted, "BTS, fighting!" and began walking in the lake.

Jennie started cracking up at how Jin was yelling loudly at the icy water. They both were freaking out and shaking. After they came back, everyone sat in the hot tub. For another punishment, the members played rock, paper, scissors to see who would swim in the lake. It was between Suga and J-Hope.

"One, two, three!"

Suga had rock while J-Hope had paper.

"AHHHHHH~!" they both yelled as J-Hope proudly raised his palm, indicating that he won, exploding into happiness.

Suga went down to the lake as steam radiated off his body from the hot tub while everyone watched. He ran in and swam, screaming from the cold.

"It's cold!" he shouted, swimming back.

'The last punishment: swimming in the cold lake- DONE'

After getting settled, the members sat together to be interviewed.

"You now have one day left in the third leg of your trip," the director spoke. 

They discussed how much of a bummer it was and how fast the trip went.

"It ended so quickly," Suga said.

"We had a lot of incidents." Jin brought up. "Jimin lost his bag,"

"It's such a bummer that Rap Monster isn't here," Jungkook added.

"Rap Monster sent you a video message," the director informed them and went to play it for them.

"Hi, guys. Bonjour," Rapmon waved in the video. "I don't feel all that great coming back here three days before you. I also want to eat more hot dogs in Northern Europe for three more days but now that I'm drinking an iced Americano after landing in Incheon, all of that is washing away,"

That made the members laugh.

"Without me, the sauna...camping car...seven beds...I almost became a loner but I'm glad," he went on.

"I'm really sad. My heart feels weird," Jungkook said.

"Enjoy it before you come back. Whenever you're awake or asleep. I'm not the one to say this but be careful with your passport,"

After watching the video, everyone felt sadder that he wasn't here with them.

"You came on this trip for your third anniversary. It wasn't luxurious. But it had the travel concept of young friends. And you enjoyed it so far. The staff members who helped you be in this place for the past three years wrote you letters by hand," the director announced as everyone was surprised. 

The director handed Bang Si Hyuk PD's letter to Suga and he read it to everyone.

But still, thank you. I won't say that I'm proud of you just yet. Because I am a very greedy person. Let's hold onto that until the day you become the best group in the world. On June 12 a year. 3 years later, on that day, I'll look each of you in the eye and tell you personally from my lips that I'm thankful that you stayed by me and for bringing me here and allowing me to dream. I write this on May 2016, a month before your 3rd Anniversary.

They applauded, deeply moved by his letter.

"Wow..." Jen shook her head, placing a hand over her heart.

They also got a letter from Manager Sejin and Jungkook read it, imitating his deep voice which amused the members.

Because I'm always stuck with you 24 hours every day I thought that I struggled the hardest in the world but widening my perspective, I felt that so many people work for you guys. Let's work to always be thankful and humble. If it's with you, the most beautiful moments of my life are yet to come. Let's be an even greater team.

"Diana had written a letter to you all as well," the Director informed them.

"Diana noona?" Jungkook asked as the director gave the letter to Jennie.

"My manager Diana wrote us a letter too?" she laughed, mentally preparing herself.

She wrote about how she had stood by Jennie through thick and thin all these years and was able to meet seven precious boys in the process. She called all eight of them her kids and promised to be there on their journey during the good and bad times. She thanked them for the special memories they have created so far and looked forward to the years to come.

We have been through thick and thin, haven't we? Any time you are in America, I will continue to do my best to support you and guide you. Next time you're back in the States, home cooked meals are on me. Love, Auntie Diana. Oh and Jennie, you're probably tearing up, so boys, hug her for me. I love you all, xoxo. 

That did it as the tears fell from Jennie's eyes and the guys got out of their seats for a group hug.

"I once again feel thankful towards the staff around us," J-Hope said as they all applauded and thanked the staff for a wonderful trip to Europe.

'Last day of the trip'

'A bright morning in Rovaniemi'

Before the rest of the members woke up, Jennie and Jungkook got up early to take photos of the sunrise. It was a beautiful view as the orange complimented the blue sky. Jennie sat and enjoyed the view after snapping photographs on her phone. She sighed in contentment, taking it all in before they would have to go back to Korea. It was bittersweet.

Jungkook sat behind her, having her in his arms as they looked through his footage together on his camera. He showed her the photos he snapped of the view and then showed her his favorite picture which was her in watching the sunrise.

"This is the best one," he said with a happy smile.

"Aw~! I love it. This is beautiful,"

----------

As the members cleaned up the car, Jimin accidentally bumped his head on his bed. He let out a yell in frustration, clutching the back of his head.

"Yikes, be careful," Jennie rubbed the back of his head, soothing the pain.

"We need to wash these dishes," Jungkook said.

"Jimin already did them yesterday," J-Hope said.

"Jimin!"

"Oh, Jimin!" Jin called out.

"Chim Chim!" Jungkook started saying the nickname like Tony and Nate used to do.

"Ah, Tony! Tony and Nate!" J-Hope reminisced.

"It's been almost two years," Jin said.

"Gosh...I miss those two," Jennie sighed at the AHL memories.

"I think we need to toss the bananas," Hobi said.

"Banana. Haven't eaten the bananas yet, how could you toss them? Whoa!" V rapped to the camera.

"Let me hear you say this shh is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-AS! This shh is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S." Jennie sang, dancing with V on the camera while sitting in the RV.

After cleaning the RV, they arrived at Santa Park. The friendly elves waved hello to them and they went on a tour around the area. It was beyond adorable and made Jennie feel like a kid.

When they made it to Santa's office, they checked out the cute interior and went on to create Santa dolls.

"This is so cute," Jennie said as she created her doll.

The members showed off their Santa faces and Jimin began to feel left out because no one was praising his work.

"Let me see yours!" Jennie beamed and looked over his shoulder. Content and thankful for the attention he was getting, he gleefully showed her. "Wow~! This is so cute! I like how you did the eyebrows. This is the best one guys," she pointed out.

Jimin's heart soared at her praise and a light blush appeared on his cheeks. "Thanks, Ennie,"

"Wow~, Jimin!" the boys cheered on.

Lastly, they went to the post office and wrote letters that would be sent around Christmas. They all decided to write to everyone. Most were done while Jennie stayed with Jimin and V to finish up their letters. Once she finished her letter, she walked out to see J-Hope, Suga, Jungkook, and Jin shaking their bodies out after the elf staff member demonstrated.

She immediately walked back into the post office room and laughed, "Yeah, no."

After finishing up the letters, the group stood together to talk about how fun the trip was.

"It was really fun to be able to enjoy such a great place with all the members," J-Hope said.

"We went back to our childhoods here at Santa Park, too," Suga nodded.

"Express how you felt at 7 with your body," Jin said as J-Hope lowered down and acted like a seven-year-old, making them laugh.

"Taehyung took the longest to write his letter. How was it?" Jimin asked.

"I wrote to each of the members," V answered, proud of what he wrote.

They announced that they would be reading their letters on a V-Live for Christmas. The group then thanked everyone for giving them an unforgettable trip and gave a round of applause.

---------

"1...2...3!" Jennie clapped her hands for her final interview of the trip. "Yo~! It's my turn to be interviewed, huh? Okay." she bounced in her seat excitedly. "What a wild trip this was but I am happy I got to share it with the guys. Northern Europe is absolutely beautiful. I took so many pictures. I think the memory on my phone is full,"

She looked pleased as she rambled on, "We made a lot of pleasant memories and I hope that we can have more trips together. It's nice to be able to travel the world and it's even more fun when I get to do this with them,"

She smiled at the thought of the food, "The food was awesome, I tried so many different things. The meatballs were my absolute favorite. Wherever we go next, Jin and I want to go restaurant hopping. Oh, can we go somewhere nice and hot, next time?"

'Favorite Memory?'

"I think my favorite memory was the sauna," she laughed at how everyone freaked out with how cold the water was in the lake. "I enjoyed going in the water with J-Hope. It was a sweet moment. I just wished that Rapmon was here with us. But for our next trip, we need to make sure we stick together. No member left behind. And um...can we make sure not to lose our stuff next time? Let's be more careful. It was a wonderful opportunity to travel and learn about how other countries work. I'm glad I had my phone with me to navigate. Honestly, it's good to get out there and experience the world. I hope everyone can have a chance to do it. Thank you for this trip. Let's travel again, soon!"

Jen has the honor to film with Yoon Mirae for the first episode of Celebrity Womance. Jennie and Jungkook spend time with his family. Jennie supports AGUST D's mixtape

Words: 9,000+

Author's Note: Bon Voyage Season 1 is next after this chapter! Also, don't panic, things will be fine :)

-------

The following morning, Jen received a phone call from one of her sisters while she was gaming with Jungkook.

"Awesome! Thank you, we'll be there! I'll make sure of it! I have been waiting to see this movie!" Jennie happily got off the phone and turned to Jungkook excitedly as he chilled on the bed. "Oppa, let's watch Civil War, today! My sister's friend hooked us all up for a rented movie theater to watch the movie, today! We'll be alone with no one to bother us!"

Jungkook's ears perked up and he quickly turned to her, Jungshooked.

She finally said it...

Jennie realized what she had just said as her entire face flushed. It just slipped out, she meant to say his name but it just flowed naturally to call him that despite her not being a fan of saying the word often.

"Did you..." he trailed off as a huge smile came across his face. He stood up and walked over to her. "Did you say what I think you just said?"

Smiling softly, she nodded. "Yes, I did."

"Can you say it, again?"

"Oppa, let's watch civil war, today."

Jungkook immediately wrapped his arms around her and gently lifted her off her feet as she laughed. "Okay, Jagi. Let's watch Civil War, today!"

"I'll tell the others," she said after getting set down.

"Am I the first guy you said oppa to?"

She pondered for a moment. "As a matter of fact...yes, you are the first guy."

Jungkook smiled triumphantly, already planning to brag to his hyungs. "Good."

At the theatre, JenKook wore Marvel shirts for the special occasion and sat in the back while the rest of Bangtan sat further down, scattered around. Her sisters sat near the members.

"I hope y'all won't be doing anything dirty back there!" Vienna teased the couple.

"Hush and watch the movie!" Alani replied.

"Would y'all be quiet!?" Jen shouted as the previews finished.

As they watched Captain America Civil War, JenKook freaked out and spoke during the movie which amused the members.

"Look at this, look at this! Look at this perfection! Iron Man wishes he could do this!" Jen said as Captain America was shown fighting at the beginning of the movie.

During the scene where Tony gives the students a grant, Jungkook goes on to brag about Iron Man, "Captain America wishes he could give students a grant like Tony,"

"Oh shut up," she rolled her eyes.

"Be jealous~!" he teased.

The rest of the members laughed at the debate JenKook had rows behind them including her laughing at Tony getting beaten up and hit by cars.

"That wasn't funny!" Jungkook huffed.

"Yes, it was,"

The scene with Steve and Bucky talking about whether Bucky was worth it made Jennie tear up.

"You see the mess he made!? All of them are in cells! Captain America is better." Jen debated with him later on in the movie.

"They brought this on themselves,"

"How!?"

"Would you guys be quiet!?" Jin shouted.

"We knew this was going to happen," Namjoon laughed.

During the plot twist of Bucky being the one to kill Tony's parents, Jennie and Jungkook were shooked.

"No..." she covered her mouth.

"I hate him, I hope he dies," Jungkook furiously stared at the scene.

"No! I don't want Bucky to die-"

"He killed Iron Man's parents!"

"He was brainwashed! It wasn't him!"

"I don't care!"

"Well, I care!"

The final fight scene between Bucky and Captain America going after Tony got them hyped as they both cheered on their favorite superheroes.

A scream left Jen's lips when Bucky's arm was destroyed by Tony.

"NO! WHY!?" she yelled.

"NO!" Jungkook yelled in horror when Cap hit his shield in Tony's heart.

Jen covered her mouth again and started tearing up at the defeated Iron Man. He really got hit in the arc reactor.

"Jungkook..." she murmured, not knowing what to say.

"Do you see the destruction your Captain America has done!? He ruined everything!" he angrily said.

"Hey! Don't blame him! He was protecting his friend!" she snapped at him.

"People are hurt! He almost killed Tony! That's unforgivable!"

"Tony tried to kill Bucky! He blew out his arm!"

"He deserved it!"

"No, the hell he didn't! He's a changed man!"

"A-are they actually angry with each other? Are they really fighting?" Jin asked with concern.

"Nah, they do this all the time when they watch Marvel movies," Taehyung answered, calmly.

"Yeah, they're just bonding, no need to worry," Jimin reassured with a chuckle.

Near the end, Jennie laughed at Stan Lee's cameo, calling Tony, Tony Stank.

"Ha! I told you it was true! Tony Stank for the win!" she laughed.

"At least Tony is richer than everyone," Jungkook quipped.

"Oh ho ho...no the hell he ain't! Black Panther is richer! Um, hello he is a whole prince. He has almost 100 trillion! Don't get me started on my brothers,"

"Blah, blah, blah,"

After the movie finished, Jennie sighed in contentment. "Gosh, I hope they have a Black Panther movie soon! Like that'll be so lit. I can only imagine how awesome it'll be. What I wouldn't give to be a part of a Marvel movie. That would be a dream. Even if it's just a song or something or a small role, I don't even care,"

------

After the movie, Bangtan went shopping at the mall. When splitting up into groups at the mall, the members found their way back to each other after shopping at Forever 21. Everyone but Jennie had bought some things because all she was looking for was a certain brand of perfume that she could not find anywhere. That was until she finally spotted Victoria's Secret.

"Oh my gosh, finally! I gotta get something real quick!" she eagerly rushed in, surprising the guys with her enthusiasm. "Man, oh man, I hope they have it."

"Jennie...what are you planning on getting from here?" Jin's heart dropped as he walked into the store with fear, quickly following her.

"I think we all know exactly what she is going to buy from here." Hobi chuckled with Yoongi.

"Hey, hey, Jungkookie, do you think Jennie is going to buy something to wear for you?" Jimin teased, wrapping an arm around him as they walked deeper into the store.

'I-is she going to get some lingerie now? I-in front of the Hyungs? Is she ready for THAT??' Jungkook thought with wonder and astonishment as he began to blush.

Did she want to do THAT already?

His imagination was already beginning to wander...

Did she want him to go crazy?

Why couldn't she do this when they were alone? Not with the rest of the guys around them.

Jungkook's thoughts were interrupted by a large pat on the back by Namjoon. "I'm surprised she would be this bold. Don't you want to help her pick something out? We can wait out here."

Before Jungkook could answer, he peeped Jennie walking past all the underwear.

'Wait...why is she walking past the lingerie? Even the red underwear?? No...no, no, why?' Jungkook thought.

"Finally!" she happily announced and grabbed a few bottles of the perfume she wanted. "I have been trying to find these everywhere!"

Namjoon let out a laugh, looking stunned. "W-wow...perfume. Would you look at that? She came here for perfume."

Jin sighed out of relief. "I'm glad it was just that!"

"Yeah, of course. What did you think I was gonna get in here?" Jen stared at him like it was the most obvious thing she would get in the store.

Meanwhile, disappointment was clearly shown on Jungkook's face while the rest of the members felt salty that what she bought wasn't what they were expecting.

"Darn...I really thought she was going to get a set for Jungkook." Hobi whined.

"Bet the kid is upset, right about now," Yoongi added.

"Aw...tough luck, Jungkookie." Jimin giggled with Taehyung.

Back at the hotel, Jungkook decided to speak up about it and ask her about the stunt she pulled at Victoria's Secret.

"S-so you weren't planning on getting anything else?" he asked.

"Nope, just the perfume. Why?" she watched him as he averted his eyes.

She then realized what he had meant and felt her face heat up. "O-oh." she nervously laughed. "Well...the stuff in that store is not even what I would want to wear for you when I'm ready for that."

That sparked his interest as his ears perked up. "Well, what do you want to wear?"

"I guess you'll have to wait and find out one day." she teased, grabbing the controller to finish her game.

"When can I find out?" he eagerly asked.

"Shh."

"Can I at least know the color?"

"Shh."

"Can it be red?"

"Shh!"

-------

The next morning, all packed and ready to leave America, Jennie met with the rest of the members on the first floor.

"Jen," Diana, her manager called out.

"Yeah?" she turned to face her.

"You won't be going back to Korea just yet,"

That caused Jennie to furrow her brows. What did she mean? She was planning to go back with the members so what could possibly be left on her schedule? It made her nervous but decided to stay positive about it.

"Okaaaay. What else is on my schedule?"

"Last minute meeting Bang PD and I scheduled with some important people that want to meet you. Come on. They're waiting for us,"

Important people? Meeting? That she and Bang PD scheduled? What was going on?

After telling the members she'd be staying a while longer in America and saying her goodbyes, she went to follow Diana in a car that took them to the location of the meeting.

"You keep looking at me. What is going on?" Jen asked after she caught Diana staring at her longer than usual.

"It's nothing. Just relax. The meeting shouldn't take that long, anyway." she replied, trying to change the subject.

"Who am I meeting anyway?"

"You'll see when we get there,"

After arriving at the location, Diana escorted her to a meeting room to see two caucasian people. A man and woman in suits with welcoming smiles.

"Ah, Jennifer Walker. It's a pleasure to finally meet you in person," the man spoke first shaking her hand.

"Hi, nice to meet you as well," she politely replied.

The two introduced themselves and informed her that they were looking for potential musical artists to endorse Macy's. The idea did interest Jen as she thought it would be a good opportunity since she already endorsed Puma with BTS. 

"Any brands you enjoy wearing?" she was asked.

"Nike!" she beamed. "That's my all-time favorite brand,"

"Nike? Why that brand?"

"Oh, a lot of things. I have a whole collection of Nike sneakers. I just love everything about it. Their style, their clothes. It makes me feel empowered as weird as it sounds. Let me show you the collection of sneakers I have," she took out her phone, showing them the large collection of shoes.

Diana refrained from laughing while the two others looked impressed and pleased to see her so passionate about a brand like this. The exact passion they want to endorse a brand. 

Jennie rambled on and on about Nike as she showed tons of photos and stories about wearing the brand.

"...and these are the sneakers I wore on the night I debuted with BTS," she rambled on.

"If you wanted to create something, what would you want?" she was also asked.

"I'd love to create a whole line of Nike shoes for dance and Nike dance clothes. Sneakers, ballet shoes, everything Nike dance shoe related. Comfortable and cute clothes to dance in for Nike. I strongly believe dancing is a sport and I feel like dancing should have some representation. It would be a dream to create something like that for Nike one day."

"Hm...I see," the lady nodded and looked over at her partner.

The man took out a folder and placed it on the table with a smile, "Well, Nike would love to see this vision come true,"

It took a few seconds for his words to register in her brain as Jen stared at them in astonishment. Her heart dropped and her mouth went dry as words couldn't form in her head. 

Did he just say Nike wanted to see her vision come true?

Diana couldn't help but laugh and had to be the one to open the folder to reveal the Nike Endorsement contract waiting to be signed.

"We've had our eye on you for quite a while Miss Walker. Your passion for our brand is infectious. We would love to have you on board and put your vision into action."

"I had to talk to them to try to make something up. I didn't want them to go straight in and say they were from Nike," Diana giggled and turned to Jennie. "Wow, the look on your face. Are you going to say anything? I'm sorry, she's still trying to process all of this,"

"We understand. We've watched all those videos of her talking about Nike. We heard her passion loud and clear," the woman replied with a giggle.

Nothing came out of Jennie but tears as her chest felt heavy. Looking down at her lap, her sight was blurred with tears.

Was this another dream about Nike? It wasn't like the others.

"Y-you want me? To endorse Nike? You really want me?" she managed to speak, looking back up at them after wiping her tears with her sleeved arm.

"We've wanted you for quite a while now. We're pleased we were able to get to you due to your busy schedule. When we heard about Adidas wanting you, we were a bit worried that you would join them." they told her.

Feeling a hand on her shoulder, Jen turned to Diana.

"I already looked over the contract. Bang PD discussed it with me as well. This is what you always wanted, although Puma will have to go away,"

Jen understood about Puma and was prepared for it as she tried to process that a contract from Nike was waiting for her.

"Will you do it?" Jen was asked.

Looking up at the Nike representatives, she smiled happily with tearful eyes, opening up a pen.

"Yes! Heck yeah, I will!" she answered proudly, signing her signature.

Diana could feel herself getting emotional as she watched Jennie sign the contract. She was so proud of her having this moment.

"Great! We will keep in touch, Ms. Walker. We are looking forward to working on this vision of yours,"

"Thank you so much! Thank you! You have no idea how much this means to me! Thank you for giving me a chance! Thank you for noticing me! Thank you for everything!" Jennie rambled on about her gratitude for this blessing.

After they left, Jen hugged Diana as more tears escaped.

"Thank you so much!"

"I got you. Always remember that. You deserve it," Diana beamed.

Pulling away, she took out her phone, still shaking from what just happened, "I-I gotta call my parents," she said, calling her mom up.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?" her mom asked on the line.

"Are you all right?" her dad asked.

"I'm crying because I'm happy," Jen sniffed.

"What happened?"

"I got it..."

"Got what?" her dad asked.

"An endorsement deal with Nike."

"Aw, baby I'm so proud of you! I told you, prayer is a powerful thing!"

--------

After returning to Seoul from her meeting with Nike, Jennie still felt her body shaking from the news that Nike wanted HER. She was about to endorse the company that she dreamed of endorsing for many years. She couldn't wait to tell the guys.

"I'm finally back!" she announced, shutting the front door.

When she turned around, the lights went on and she was welcomed with loud cheers. She looked around in wonder, genuinely surprised as she saw a large banner that said 'Congrats on the Nike Endorsement' with various balloons and confetti around the room.

There were the boys who were patiently waiting for her arrival as they had bright smiles on their faces.

"No, you didn't," she covered her mouth as a smile grew on her face.

"Congrats Ennie!" V ran up to her, scooping her up in a hug.

"She's finally endorsing Nike!" J-Hope yelled proudly, jumping up and down

"A dream come true~! Jennie and Nike 2K16!" Jungkook shouted happily.

"I knew you were going to get it one of these days! I'm glad you remained patient," Namjoon praised.

"Nike X Jennie! Finally~!" Jimin yelled

"Wow, I feel like a proud father," Jin rambled, "I can't wait to ask my friends, is your daughter cool enough to get an endorsement from Nike? No? Well, my precious Jennie scored one and is going to break barriers with it!"

"We're proud of you smartie," Yoongi praised. "You deserve this. We're glad you went with your heart,"

"I wish we could have seen the look on her face when she found out," Hobi laughed with Namjoon and Jimin at the thought.

After being set down, she walked further into the room to see pizza and plates waiting at the table, along with a large cake that said congrats on the Nike endorsement. 

It took her a moment to realize that they all knew that she was going to get it. 

"Wait...you guys knew?!" she asked, taken aback. "That I was going to get it!? And you didn't drop any hints!?"

"Of course not! That eliminates the element of surprise," Jungkook giggled.

"Guys..." she said as she looked at them with tears falling down her cheeks.

"Aw, she's crying! I told you she was going to cry!" J-Hope laughed and pulled her in for a hug. 

The rest of the guys joined in, saying that it was all right. After pulling herself together, she smiled and thanked them for supporting her.

"Wow, Nike really has you now. How did the meeting go?" Jimin asked.

"I was nervous, I didn't know what I was getting myself into," she said and explained to them what happened.

In response, they teased her for her reaction.

"Finally that company opened their eyes to see a gem they have for an endorsement. They're going to be happy they chose you," Yoongi said confidently.

"If you need us to model for your brand or anything, let us know," V added.

"Free promo," Namjoon grinned

"Thanks, guys. Really. This is just so surreal. I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. Frickin' Nike...and Jennie of BTS. Bangtan is moving forward. V and his drama, our comeback we're working on. K-Con headliners, Yoongi's mixtape. I feel like as we progress, we're only going to be chasing more bags and success. Let's keep working hard," she high fived all of them as they cheered.

"That's the energy to have! How soon can you start designing what you want to do?" Jin asked as they all sat at the table.

"For now, they'll be in touch with me," she answered.

"Wait until ARMY finds out. They'll be ecstatic," V said.

"Are you going to tell them soon or wait a bit?" Jungkook asked.

"I want to wait a bit. Let it be a huge surprise when I announce it," she replied.

"Cool. Now dig in!" Jimin laughed and pushed her face into the cake with Jin.

--------

As a few weeks went by, Bangtan was back in America for LA's K-Con. The group went through a series of interviews to promote it. News about Suga's mixtape that he was working on had got out and he expressed his enthusiasm that Armies were excited about it.

"Jennifer has been the biggest supporter out of my journey working on the mixtape," Suga announced proudly as she looked at him in shock. "I would find her trying to peek in my studio to see if I'm working on it. I am happy to have a strong support system for my music. ARMY, I hope you like the finished product,"

She didn't expect him to acknowledge that and it made her feel good. The huge smile on her face did not go unnoticed by viewers and the members as Suga glanced over at her to give her a soft smile.

Fans commented on the YoonJen moment and expressed their excitement for his mixtape:

'Awww YoonJen!'

'Keep in mind Yoongi said, Jennifer. Not smartie. You know he serious af about her being supportive of him! I'm soft!'

'My heart! I can't wait for him to release it!'

After the interview, Jennie went out to roam around K-Con with Sejin and a bodyguard with her. She came across fans performing dance covers of BTS songs. It appeared to be a local dance group and she watched as they performed fire. What took her by surprise was the black male dancer performing her part.

'Wow!' she thought, mesmerized as he nailed her mannerisms. It was like she was looking at herself perform.

"Yasssss!" she shouted, which caught the attention of fans who began to scream. "Y'all killing it!"

A large portion of fans tried to get her attention for photos and autographs but she kindly told them that she wanted to watch the rest of the performance before any interaction. They respected it and watched as she happily danced to the beat of fire, enjoying the performance.

After the group finished, Jennie approached them and clapped.

"That was amazing! You guys killed it!"

"Oh my gosh, thank you! We can't believe you came out here!" one of the dancers said.

"I'm still a K-Pop fan at heart. I just wanted to drop in and say hey. How long have you been in a group? The synchronization was extremely good,"

"That means the world to us coming from you. We wanted to do it justice. We've been performing since 2014!"

"Wow, keep dancing, please! Don't ever stop. All of you are gifted,"

As more fans gathered around, she tried to take as many selfies as she could.

"Jennie! What do you think of NCT?" a fan asked.

"I tweeted about them! They are lit! Sooo many members. Firetruck is a bop," she beamed.

"Do you have a bias?"

"Not yet! Hard to choose,"

"I love you and Alex Reid. Have you met Alex yet?"

This had been a common question. Unfortunately, she still hasn't met the girl but eagerly wants to. Someone to relate to in this industry.

"Sadly no. But I really want to! I hope we can meet up one of these days,"

After going backstage, Jen felt like she could breathe easier since Bangtan wasn't until the end of the show. She spent time with Ailee and watched backstage as she performed. She had some mic trouble but she nailed the performance without music as the queen that she was. Her A cappella was on point and it blew her away.

"Jen!"

Her name was called out and she turned around to see Zico waving and walking over to her with Dean.

"Zico! Long time no see! How are you?" she pulled him in for a hug.

"Doing good. How you been?"

"Everything has just been blessings upon blessings. I got my Nike endorsement!"

"No way, you finally got it?! About time! They have a gem on their hands! I can't wait to see what you create with them!"

"Aw thank you!" she turned to Dean. "Hi! I'm Jennie! It's so nice to finally meet you, Dean! Your music is so dope. I love your sound,"

Dean was pleased to hear how much she praised his music and thanked her.

"Your vocals are like so soothing and I admire your work. I hope you get a ton of awards for your EP," she added.

"Thank you, Jennie. How does it feel headlining K-Con with BTS?" Dean asked with a smile.

"Surreal. I am so grateful,"

After talking with them, she stayed in BTS' dressing room.

"Hello! Is Jennie Unnie here?" a female voice asked.

Jennie turned around, pausing her conversation with Jimin to see the IOI members walking in.

"Ah! There she is!" the voice belonged to Somi.

All the members of IOI had walked in with bright smiles, dressed in their outfits to perform.

"Oh my gosh, hi!" Jennie rushed up to them.

She hadn't seen them in a while but watched closely at the survival show's results and their journey as a group. 

Sohye with a cute smile presented the large basket to her. "This is on behalf of us,"

"F-for me? Oh my gosh, thank you," she graciously accepted it and placed it on the table.

"A thank you for supporting us," Pinky added.

When Jennie opened it, she squealed in glee when she saw it was filled with packs of smarties. Her happy sound effect made the girls giggle, proud that she liked the gift. Meanwhile, Bangtan watched with amusement.

'You're becoming a great role model, Jennie,' Namjoon thought as he watched IOI look up at her in admiration.

"My smarties! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" she went on to hug all of them. "How does it feel to be a group? Hard work paid off, huh? I see bright futures for all of you,"

"Yeah, we love it. It's so exciting to be here, too," Chungha answered.

"I'm glad. Make the most of everything. And if you need anything, I'm here for you,"

-------

Back in Korea, with the short amount of free time that they had, Jungkook wanted Jennie to join him to eat with his family. He thought it was the perfect time to tell them that they were dating, too. There was no doubt in his mind that they were going to be thrilled.

Once they made it to his parents' house, Jungkook turned to her with a smile.

"Are you ready?" he asked.

"Butterflies are increasing as we get closer to the door," she admitted and took a deep breath.

"You'll be fine. I have a strong feeling they're going to be pretty excited to hear the good news," he grinned at her, making her mellow out.

Suddenly the door opened to reveal his mom smiling brightly at them.

"Jungkook! You're here!" she pulled him in for a hug. "Look at you. Are you eating well?" she pulled away.

"Always, Mom,"

"Good," she turned to Jennie as her smile got wider. "Jennie! I'm so happy you can join us!"

"Hi, Mrs. Jeon. Thank you for having me. This is for you and your husband," she presented her with a gift basket she created for them.

"Oh, thank you very much. Come on. Both of you. Your father and brother are in the backyard, Jungkook,"

"Okay," he responded and let Jennie walk in first. He followed her inside and closed the door.

'You okay while I go to the backyard?' he gave her a look, initiating a brief nonverbal conversation.

'Yes, go on ahead.' she nodded and returned the smile that he gave her.

As she watched him leave, Jennie turned her attention to his mom placing the basket on a table.

"I've been so excited to see you again!" she heard his mom say.

She has?

"Really? That means a lot, thank you!"

"Jungkook can never stop talking about you. It made me miss you more than I already have,"

"He talks about me a lot to you?" she chuckled softly, feeling her heart soar as she heard about her missing her.

"Oh, all the time. It was the cutest thing. Since you came along, I have seen a positive difference in his character. I'm not sure what is going on but whatever it is, I hope it continues,"

'Wow, all from us dating?' Jen thought optimistically.

A lot of people have been saying this to her lately. That Jungkook had been more lively and open. Was it really because of her?

"I hope so too," she smiled. "May I assist you?"

His mother looked at her with appreciation as she was preparing to finish up dinner. "Yes, I would love that. Please set up the table,"

"You got it,"

After finishing it up, she helped his mom put the food on the table.

"Jennie is here," she heard Jungkook as he walked inside with his brother and father.

"I'm glad that I finally get to meet her. You talk about her so much, it made me anticipate her arrival even more," his brother, Jung-hyun said to him.

"Hi! It's nice to finally meet you, Jung-hyun," Jennie greeted kindly.

"Likewise. It's nice to meet the 'most precious person' to my brother,"

That made her face heat up while he giggled at her and his brother's flustered reaction. He could easily tell something was going on and was happy his little brother found a significant other. He approved of Jennie right away just from Jungkook chatting about her and showing their photos over their years in Bangtan.

"H-hey! Cut it out!" Jungkook smacked his brother's arm for putting him on blast like that. 

His face turned slightly pink as he planned his revenge.

"Jennie! It's good to see you again, how are you doing?" his father asked.

"Very well! I'm happy to be here, Mr. Jeon,"

As they sat down for dinner, Jen sat next to Jungkook while they were across from his parents and brother.

"Jung-hyun, Jungkook showed me some of your art. It's amazing. You know my sister Alani likes to create DIY items,"

"Oh really? Cool. Thank you. I'd like to see them sometime," he grinned.

"She has an Instagram about it. I'll show you later,"

"How many siblings do you have?"

"Just two! Both sisters. Alani and Vienna. Alani is into communications and Vienna is starting to lean more into acting. Lately, she's been wanting to get into Broadway and been auditioning quite a bit,"

After more small talk, Jennie felt comfortable and relaxed further. Jungkook noticed and was happy that his family warmed up to her so easily.

"Are your sisters gamers, too?" his brother asked.

"Not as much as me. I'm more of the gamer out of the three of us,"

"She sucks at Overwatch," Jungkook laughed. "She died as soon as the match began. I wish we recorded it for our channel. It was hilarious,"

'Wooooow. Roasting me in front of your family?' Jennie thought, amused as her nervousness melted away completely.

"Hey, I'm still learning. And you show no mercy in these games. Whenever we play against each other you don't give me a chance to try to hit you," she pointed out.

"Of course not, I want to win," he teased.

"I think you should at least go easy on me so I can learn and then go full out,"

His parents watched them cutely bicker about video games and gave each other knowing looks. She definitely fitted right in. Her genuine smile towards their son was another significant factor. And how she praised him throughout the entire dinner touched their hearts.

"You game as often as Jungkook?" his dad smiled.

"All the time. You should watch our channel sometime. It's really funny," she grinned.

"She gets competitive a lot, Dad," Jungkook laughed. "Just like me. There are games that she's better at and tries to teach me,"

"Well just know that I will be rooting for you, Jennie," his father promised her.

"Dad, you're not going to be cheering me on?" Jungkook looked offended, while his girlfriend and mother giggled.

"It's nice to see you get beat once in a while in games,"

"Jennie, how is your family doing?" his mom asked her.

"Really well. There hasn't been much going on at home. Just working and enjoying summer,"

"One day it would be nice to meet them and have dinner together," his dad suggested.

That made her get butterflies in her stomach as she appeared Jenshooked. Was it obvious that she and Jungkook were dating because throughout this entire meal, they'd been talking a lot about the future and how Jungkook had changed happily because of her.

"Dinner with you and her family?" Jungkook looked Jungshooked for a moment.

"Of course! We're eager to meet your girlfriend's family!" his dad blurted out with a large smile.

"Dad..." Jung-hyun groaned. "We were waiting for them to announce it themselves,"

"Surprise ruined," his mom sighed.

His dad laughed nervously. "Whoops. Sorry. I mean look at them. Adorable. They've been holding hands under the table the entire meal. I had to say something,"

Jungkook and Jennie looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. Jennie had nothing to worry about. Things were just fine.

"Wow, was it that obvious?" Jungkook smiled bashfully.

"Your body language, little brother," Jung-hyun pointed out. "And your lingering gaze towards her. It's cute,"

"Ah..." Jungkook looked down, feeling his face heat up.

Meanwhile, Jennie felt happier than ever at how excited they were to see them dating.

"How long have you two been together?" his mom asked.

"Since January. He's so good to me," she answered sweetly.

"Ah, beautiful. I for one am very happy to see my son with someone that brings out the best in him. You are a wonderful, sweet girl. I fully support this,"

That made Jennie tear up and blink the happy tears away. Wow. They approved. All of them. 

After they finished eating, his mom came out with a small cake. It was mouthwatering as Jen devoured it. After eating a second slice, Jennie asked if she could learn how to make it. The surprised expression on Jungkook's mom's face made her smile as she agreed and asked if Jen could teach her the recipe for the baked goods she baked for them a while back.

"I just wanted to say thank you for welcoming me with open arms and for your hospitality," Jen smiled.

"Of course. I'm so happy it worked out between you two. We are looking forward to having you over again soon when your schedules allow it," his father grinned.

--------

As summer went on for BTS, Jennie, and Jungkook were invited to film a variety show. With Jungkook, he was on Celebrity Bromance and paired up with Shinhwa's Minwoo. They spent the entire day together and even rock climbed as Jungkook began to feel more comfortable and open around him as the day went on.

After the cameras were off them for a brief period, Minwoo asked if there was any special young lady that caught his eye. His question earned an immediate smile from the Golden Maknae as he thought about Jennie.

"That's the smile of a man in love," Minwoo said with a light chuckle while noticing how his eyes shined brightly. "She must be exceptional,"

"She is. I kind of think of us as soulmates," Jungkook smiled shyly as a blush grew on his cheeks. Taking out his phone, he showed him a photo of them together, "This is my girlfriend. Her name is Jennie,"

"Wow, she's beautiful. You two are in the same group, too. Bangtan is very protective of her, I'm sure?"

"Absolutely. She is very precious to us,"

"Good. I bet she has quite the admirers. How did you two start dating?"

"She does. I wanted her so I was persistent for her to be my girlfriend. I made the first move to express my feelings and kissed her before her flight back home to America. Ah...I felt like my mom because she made the first move and went after my dad," he laughed with him. "She's the best...I'm very happy with her,"

"Treasure every day of your beautiful relationship. And don't let anyone, not even the media ruin what you have,"

"I will treasure it. Every day,"

---------

Meanwhile, when it came to Jennie, she starred in a new show called Celebrity Womance. A spinoff of Celebrity Bromance. Jen was honored to be in the first episode of this new show. She decided to meet the woman she was paired up with at a bubble tea shop, ordering tea for both of them.

"I am excited that they asked me to be a part of the first episode of Celebrity Womance. There's already a bromance version of it so it'll be fun to see who I am going to be paired up with. I have no clue who it might be," Jennie said on camera for a brief interview with the staff of the show.

She then went to sit back at her seat in the café to wait for the woman.

"I'm a little nervous..." she murmured and contemplated chewing a piece of gum to relax. 

But then chose to sip on her milk bubble tea instead, chewing on the bubbles that came up through the straw.

'Someone Appeared!'

Jennie turned in the direction of the door opening to see Yoon Mirae walking in with a bright smile.

"Hello!" Yoon Mirae greeted with a wave.

"Holy crap," Jennie blurted out in English under her breath as she stared at her, bewildered. 

She covered her mouth and felt embarrassed at the sudden statement while Yoon Mirae giggled. 

She stood up and bowed at the highly respected artist, "H-hi! Oh my gosh, it's an honor to meet you! My name is Jennie!"

"Nice to meet you, I'm Yoon Mirae. You can call me Natasha Unnie,"

'Unnie already?! Whoa!' Jennie thought in amazement.

"Wow. I...wow. I was not expecting this. You worked with my leader and now I'm sitting with you today,"

The show showed a montage about Yoon Mirae and said that she is one of the most highly respected artists. To Jennie, it was a dream come true.

"I've been watching you," Yoon Mirae smiled.

"You have?"

"You've caused quite a stir when BTS was announced. A black girl in the group. I bet you had to deal with a lot of negativity,"

"Yes. I don't even know where to start. It was ridiculous,"

"What has it been like for you as a black woman here?"

"When I first started, they tried to make me look paler. The makeup they would use would be lighter. It was embarrassing and so disrespectful because I was like hey, this is not my shade. Why do you have to try to make me look lighter? There is nothing wrong with my skin. I had to start talking with the stylists and educate them. I remember some started reading articles and watching YouTube videos on how to style my hair,"

"Have they stopped making you look pale?"

"Yes, thankfully. It took a little while but now my makeup looks more like it should for my skin. And before that, I started bringing my makeup and gave it to them to use instead. When I first started in BTS they always seemed to prioritize the boys and their make up but when it came to me, not so much. I'm happy to see the growth in my hair and makeup being a priority in BTS. You've been bullied a lot too, haven't you?"

"Yes, I have. Growing up I experienced a lot of racism and bullying. When my dad was in the army, we moved a lot when I was young. People would tell my dad that he was a sell-out because he married a Korean woman, why marry a Korean,"

Jennie frowned at that and shook her head. "I get so frustrated with that. If you love someone, you love someone. Whatever race you are or what you're into. I don't like it when people judge who you're dating, especially if they're biased towards people dating within their race. There is nothing wrong with interracial dating and I'm a full supporter of that,"

The two shared a long conversation about their time living in America and then coming to Korea. Jennie was amazed by her story. The fact that she had to deal with so much as a mixed woman and how traumatizing it was for her devastated Jennie.

When asked about the pressure of being the black girl in BTS, Jen broke down.

"Sorry," she tried to laugh away her pain but the tears were too much to stop as they ran down her face. "I'll admit it's been extremely hard over the years. All those hate comments, it was so hurtful to see them coming from the fans that were supposed to be supporting the group. All members of the group. I thought I would be protected by them, y'know? From all the rest of those hating on me. They would defend the rest of the members from the hate but when it came to me, I was just an afterthought. I'm just as important as the rest of the guys. I work just as hard as them and I love our fans just as much as them,"

Yoon Mirae reached out to hold her hand, listening to her as she expressed herself.

"Sometimes it can be overwhelming. And I used to feel like a burden being the only girl in the group. So many high expectations, being an African American in this country, people wonder if you can keep up with the guys, making sure the company is impressed with your work and doesn't think you're slowing down. It's something that was always on my mind," she went on.

"And you're still here. Still strong and performing," Yoon Mirae smiled. "I was happy to see you in BTS. And I was worried about the negative feedback you would get. But you've overcome a lot and you are still standing. You should be proud of that. And what I've dealt with as a kid made me stronger too,"

"Thank you. It definitely has. Things have been much better now. A lot of positives outweighed the negatives. And your music helped me a lot. I love your song Black Happiness. You are such an inspiration and I do hope I can become a well respected and influential artist. To have people look up to me and be a positive role model as a member of BTS is a big dream of mine,"

"I would say that you already are. Keep doing what you are doing, Jennie. Keep singing and working hard. You're a bigger inspiration to others than you think,"

After drinking bubble tea, the two decided to spend the day roller skating. There were a lot of laughs between them as they got to know each other. Both fell quite a few times and helped each other up. After skating, they ate at a booth by the roller rink.

"Do you have a significant other?" Yoon Mirae asked after the crew took a break from filming.

A bright smile came across Jen's face as she thought about Jungkook. 

She nodded happily, "I do! I'm happily dating Jungkook. We've been dating since early January,"

"Ah, your group member? That's cute. Who liked who first?"

"Well, he," she chuckled, "He did. He liked me for a long time and we became best friends. One night he confessed and kissed me hours before my flight back to America,"

"Wow, how bold,"

"Very. But I'm glad he did because it made me realize how strong my feelings were for him. And even if we weren't dating, we would always be best friends. I'll always have love for him. I feel like we're soulmates because I feel such a strong and deep connection with him. He makes me so happy,"

The smile didn't leave Jennie's face as she went on, "I'm still learning about love. I'm still young and experiencing a lot of things. I'm happy it's with him and I wouldn't change anything about it,"

"There's nothing like being with the one you love. That's how I feel about my husband,"

"Right? And I recently met his parents and brother for dinner to announce that we were dating. They were so happy and welcoming. It made me cry that they accepted me so quickly,"

Yoon Mirae smiled at that. She was proud of Jennie. Things were looking up for her and she hoped it continued for this young artist.

"There are days when I watch you and your husband together, being a strong duo in music, it makes me think of Jungkook and I. I want that. To be able to perform with him on stage, and have songs together. I'm not sure when we'll tell our fanbase about our relationship but for now, we are just trying to keep things private and away from Dispatch as much as possible," Jen added.

As the evening progressed, the two sat at the park to enjoy the summer night while eating water ice together.

"Time flew so fast and now our time is about to end," Jen sighed.

She truly enjoyed her day with her. She learned so much and got a lot of advice on performing and life in the industry. The two planned to keep in touch and exchanged contact information.

---------

"Jennifer," a deep voice called out.

Looking up from her phone, she turned her head to see him leaning up against the door of her studio. He appeared nervous as he wondered how he was going to ask her what was on his mind.

"Hey, what's up?" she kindly greeted.

"I want to talk to you...privately. Meet me in my studio when you're ready. I'll be here all night. Take your time," he said and walked away.

His studio...?

"I wonder what he wants to discuss," she murmured as she finished her break.

After she finished her work, she made her way down to his studio and shut the door. She watched gleefully as she noticed that he was working on his mixtape.

"Ah, you're working on it! I'm so happy!" she beamed.

He acknowledged her words with a soft smile and gestured for her to sit next to him.

"Yeah, about time, right? It's almost ready," he said proudly.

He had worked so hard. It was going to be worth the wait.

"I'm glad. I can't wait to hear it. So, what did you need from me?"

"I want you to listen to these two songs," he said and pressed play.

She checked out his computer screen to see that the first track was called The Last. He had played the song near the end as his raw lyrics and intense instrumental had her nodding her head to the beat. He then played So Far Away for her.

"Wow, these are..." she couldn't think of the right words to how powerful his music was.

"It's missing something," he stated.

She turned to him, confused. "Missing something? How? It sounds perfect,"

"Not without you,"

Her heart skipped a beat at his words. "What are you saying?"

"These songs are missing something. And it's you. No matter what I do, I don't feel like they are complete. I want something more on these tracks. And that's why I asked you here today. I want you to play the guitar for these two songs on my mixtape,"

'You want me...? On these?' she thought in astonishment.

"I want..." Yoongi stopped and shook his head, "I need you on this. The way you express your emotions through that instrument, I need that in these two songs. No one else can play the guitar like you. Your sound is what I need for this. Please,"

He gazed at her and held her hand, nervously waiting for her answer. 

Many thoughts went through his head. Was he being too forward? She could always decline the offer. But was he prepared for that?

"When do you want to get started?" she spoke, interrupting his thoughts.

His eyes widened slightly at how quick she was to accept his request. "You'll do it?"

"No one has ever asked me to play the guitar like this for their music. It's usually just my voice and a little feature. So, doing something like this for you will mean the world to me. And the fact that I'm the one you thought of for such an important project, how could I say no to you? I'd be honored to play."

"Jennifer...thank you,"

"Always, Yoongi,"

When they got situated, they spent a couple of hours on the songs. Jen was amazed at his story. He is a reserved person and the fact that he was letting all of this out in his mixtape got her emotional.

"H-hey, Jennifer, are you okay?" Yoongi stared at her with worry as he noticed tears running down her face.

"Sorry. The Last is just getting me worked up. What you've gone through I...I'm feeling it. All of it is from your lyrics. I'll play the guitar right and do it justice. Let's record,"

"Are you sure? You want to wait until you pull yourself together first?"

"No. My sound on the guitar is enhanced when I'm feeling the emotion. If I cry, I cry. Replay it from the beginning. And when it's my cue, press record. I don't need to wait,"

Her demeanor turned into work mode as she remained focused and listened to The Last with her guitar in her hands. She listened to every lyric he rapped in song as her fingers twitched in anticipation against her guitar.

Yoongi couldn't help but feel slightly concerned as she waited for her cue.

"Hey, if this is too sad for you or-"

She raised her hand, signaling him to be quiet as she continued to listen.

Deciding to do as she said, he watched her in her work mode. Lately, Jennie had been mirroring the emotion of whatever she played on her guitar on her face. This was a vulnerable song. And she couldn't help but shed tears as she listened, preparing to play.

Once she heard the drums, she began to aggressively strum through the strings as his rap played against her ears. He watched her astounded as it was everything he wanted in this song and more. The way she played sounded perfect against his voice. The powerful chords she played against his voice were going to leave a huge impact on the mixtape for sure. After she was done, she exhaled sharply and set down her guitar.

"Now I need a moment," she said, wiping her tears. "I felt that. All of that,"

"What you just did was amazing. I don't know what happened but it sounded perfect. Thank you," he praised.

"I try," she smiled and he went to check it out on the computer to fit it in the song.

Once he had done some finishing touches to the song, he replayed it for them to listen. Yep, he was right, it did sound perfect. Fully complete.

"Hey, before we work on So Far Away, can you play AGUST D? I've been staring at it and I'm curious about how it sounds," she requested.

"Sure," he clicked on it twice.

"Oh!" she shouted out after the first few beats. "Oh! Oh okay!"

He laughed at her reaction as she danced in her seat while they listened to the song.

They call me new thang

Shinbyeong watda jimeul badeo

"Whew! Okay!" she cheered, nodding her head to the beat.

Oh, this was lit! This song was going harder than she anticipated.

A to the G to the U to the STD

I'm d boy because I'm from D

Nan michinnom biteu wiye runachik

Raebeuro hongkongeul bonaeneun

My tongue technology

Jennie almost fell out of her seat from that lyric. "OH! Tongue technology!?"

Nan bekkineun geol bekkineun nomeul jabadaga

Hubaedeun seonbaedeun jekkineun nom

"Oh shi-okay!" she jumped up and down in her seat during his second verse. He was rapping so damn fast as she stared at him in disbelief. "Yoongi~!"

Hyeongdeure shigi jiltu deoge saenggineun soeum

"OOOOOOOOOOO~!" she shouted, covering her mouth against the side of her fist. "Yo replay that back! You going crazy right now! The delivery! The delivery of that! Replay it back please!"

Yoongi's stomach began to hurt from the amount of laughter he was doing from her reaction. She was adorable. Accepting her request, he scrolled back to the second verse after the chorus.

"Yoongi! Bro! Why are you going off like this? Like damn!"

He grinned bashfully at her praise. "Ah..."

"No, that second verse! How fast you were rapping!? Come on! That's amazing!"

-------

Once his mixtape was finished, Yoongi prepared to film two music videos. Once Jennie found out about it, she made plans to visit him during his AGUST D music video shoot. As soon as he left the dorm, she went to work to bake Agust D themed cookies for him.

"Yo yo yo~!" Jennie walked on the set with a box of cookies in her hands.

'AGUST D gets a visitor!'

Yoongi turned around and saw her smiling at him. A wide grin appeared on his face as he couldn't resist expressing how extremely happy he was to see her. He wasn't expecting anyone to come by during his shoot but the fact that Jennie came made his heart jump for joy.

"Smartie! What are you doing here?"

She laughed, "You know your biggest fan had to be here! You support me, I support you! Here. Your batch of Agust D cookies. It took forever to try to get the boys to not eat them,"

"You made me cookies? Smartie..." his gummy smile appeared on his face as he accepted them. "She baked me cookies. Her cookies are the best. If you get a chance to eat them, you won't regret it,"

"Aw, you flatter me," she smiled bashfully. "How's filming?" she asked as he took a cookie out of the box and ate one.

He sighed in joy at the deliciousness before answering, "Exhausting. This is honestly more tiring than BTS' music videos. But it's going great. I'm almost done and then tomorrow I film the rest of my music video,"

After visiting Yoongi and staying to watch him record, Jen was called to Big Hit's building for an urgent meeting and came back to the dorms visibly upset. It was abrupt that this happened but she was told by the company that she had to go home due to some visa troubles. She honestly thought things were fine with her paperwork and she could continue to do what she does but now she needed to pack and go home until everything got situated.

When Sejin arrived at the dorm with Jennie, the boys sensed something was wrong and immediately asked questions. Once Sejin gave everyone the news, the mood in the room went down and everyone was stunned by the abruptness.

"What!?" Jungkook exclaimed in disbelief as he shook his head in denial.

"You can't go home!" Jimin exclaimed.

"I think they messed up on some documentation or whatever. I don't know but all I know is I need to go home for a little bit until they fix the issue. Maybe it won't be for that long," she tried to stay positive about it.

"No way," Jin shook his head in disbelief. "I can't believe this,"

"We need you. We need all 8 of us here. We're working on our comeback. Everything," Rapmon began to ramble.

She frowned. "I know...I'm annoyed. This is so poorly timed. I thought everything was straight with my stuff,"

"When are you leaving?" Yoongi frowned.

"Tonight," she sighed, which did not sit well with any of them as they tried to ask Sejin if there was anything to prevent it.

Meanwhile, Jen went to go pack as she was told while Jungkook accompanied her to her room. He sat on her bed as he watched her take out a suitcase and go through her clothes.

"Stupid visa..." she grumbled.

She tried to keep her emotions in check. She had plans to chill tonight and now had to spend it on a plane. With Jungkook, he was still trying to wrap his head around her leaving soon.

"Jagi, do you really have to leave...?"

Hopelessness and sadness were evident in the Golden Maknae's voice as he helplessly watched her pack.

He knew the inevitable.

She had to go home. And that meant they'd be apart for an unknown amount of time as Big Hit handled her visa situation. Sure there were times when she would go to America and then come back to Korea but from everything he was hearing, it seemed like this was going to take longer than usual.

On top of that, it was comeback season. That meant more stress as she wouldn't be there to be in his arms to cuddle when both of them felt overwhelmed from working on their comeback. She wouldn't be there to massage him whenever he stayed later from dance practice. Or nap with him after a long day. They wouldn't be showered with kisses, tickles, and derp faces from one another if they needed a good laugh to escape the stress. Finding out that she had to leave so abruptly made his heart shatter and frustrated him. Sure it was temporary but it bummed him out that it had to be this circumstance.

Their dog Tony, whimpered sadly, observing his parents. It was hard to watch Jennie pack up as he was lying in the middle of her bed with a sad expression. No special smartie belly rubs for quite some time. No JenKook bathing him like the family they were. This was going to be new to JenKook but perhaps this would make their relationship grow as they adjust to this brief long-distance relationship.

When Jennie turned to face Jungkook, she smiled sadly at his pouting expression. It was going to be difficult to leave him.

"You know I have to," she answered softly.

"I don't...want you to go," he murmured, looking down at his feet.

"I don't want to go either but it's just for a little while. I'll be back before you know it, Kookie,"

"Can I just come with you?" he looked up and asked as the idea popped into his head.

"As much as I would love that, you know you have to stay here,"

He frowned. It was worth a shot at least.

"It's just...I..." he hesitated.

He just wanted her to stay. She always knew how to make him feel at ease during the comeback season for Bangtan. Now that she was about to leave, it just wouldn't be the same. 

Sensing him overwhelming himself with negative thoughts, she strolled over to him. Standing in front of him as he continued to sit on the edge of the bed, she cupped his face.

"Hey," she softly called out, looking down at him. "No matter the distance, we'll make it work. We're the Golden Duo after all. This long-distance thing won't make us tap out. We can do it,"

He smiled at her words. "You're right. We will,"

He reached out for her as he pulled her into his lap. Smiling, she leaned down to kiss him slowly, trying to enjoy his lips as much as she could before she had to leave. She'll miss this.

"Don't do that..." he murmured against her lips and pulled back, panting softly.

"What?"

"Kiss me like that when you're about to leave. It'll drive me crazy," he admitted.

ARF! ARF!

Tony's barking caused them to turn in his direction. The dog happily jumped around after watching them. He jumped on them, causing JenKook to laugh at the sudden movement and break apart. She took a seat next to Jungkook instead. 

"I think our son is happy to see us trying to think positively about the situation," Jungkook giggled loudly as a bunny smile appeared on his face.

"Very happy. Hey, how about a belly rub before I leave? Would you like that, Tony?" she cooed.

She giggled softly as Tony eagerly barked and she moved to sit in the middle of the bed. The dog rolled around and exposed his tummy for her while she went to work on her affectionate belly rub. He soon began to relax and eventually dozed off. 

"It's going to suck when he wakes up and I'm gone," she frowned as she watched Tony sleep with Jungkook.

"We'll Facetime you," Jungkook promised.

"Please do. And make sure to send me memes and funny filter pictures of the guys,"

"I will. And I'll make sure to send you my progress on my song,"

"Good," she gave Tony one final look as she gently petted him and got off the bed to finish packing, "Make sure you don't feed him too many snacks while I'm gone. You know how you like to spoil him,"

"I won't. Our son is in good hands. I got it," he stood up and helped her.

Once she finished packing, she zipped up the suitcase. She was then gently grabbed by Jungkook and pulled in for a tight hug. Jennie sighed in contentment as she held onto him, enjoying his warmth. Their final hug for who knows how long.

The Bangtan Gal Chapter 85- BTS in Dubai

Words: 3,000+

---------

‘Visiting a magical country Dubai for summer package’

Bangtan’s next summer package was in Dubai. They got settled in at the Palazzo Versace Hotel and went on to start their day off by experiencing a desert.

‘Going to Safari Desert in Dubai. Driving across the golden desert on a four-wheel drive vehicle’

Jennie drove in the car with Suga, Jungkook, and Jimin. She sat with Suga in the back while Jungkook and Jimin sat in front of them. Their car ride was much quieter than the other car that had the rest of the members in it. Jimin and Jungkook listened to their music separately while Suga shared an earbud with Jennie. She listened to his playlist and once The Don by Nas played, Suga let out a low chuckle as she danced in her seat.

Arriving at the desert, Jennie soaked it all in. Dubai was beautiful and the sun felt great against her skin.

“I love this. Like, look at this scenery! And we get to take photos here? Couldn’t get any better,” she smiled as the camera filmed her snapping photos. J-Hope was happily yelling about Bangtan arriving in the background. “I need to send these to my parents. They’ll love this,”

’Everyone is speechless because of its beautiful scenery’

Once the photoshoot began, the members were given sandboards to ride down the dune. Jennie balanced perfectly on her board and slid down the sand while the photographer snapped away. 

“How do you do that!?” Suga called out.

“Practice makes perfect!” she answered with a grin.

With her selfie stick, she walked around, enjoying the view. “I think I have gotten much better at skating thanks to Kevin. So shoutout to my friend,” she said. “I’ll make sure to visit you and attend one of your basketball games at your college,“

“Ennie! Try running up the sand dune!” Jimin suggested.

When she watched him slip down and fall, she laughed. Soon after Suga and Jin rolled down the sand.

“I would roll down there but I don’t want to get my hair filled with sand,” she said when asked by V if she wanted to join him with Jungkook.

“Jennie, watch this!” Jungkook shouted out and jumped down the sand dune, rolling over. He then smoothly stopped and posed.

She applauded him while shouting, “Ten out of ten, Kookie!”

“Wow, awesome!” V praised. “Jungkook, that was so cool,”

BTS spent a few hours in the area, playing around, and even had a few sand fights.

“Jin. Back up. Back up, right now.” she warned, taking steps back as he walked over to her with a handful of sand after chasing Jimin. She shrieked and jumped out of the direction he threw the sand and began running away. “Not cool! I am not getting sand in my damn hair!"

“Get her!” Jimin shouted, running after her

After they finished their photoshoot in the desert, Bangtan went to the Dubai Desert Bedouin camp to experience their traditional culture. Performers were dancing around and Jennie was mesmerized. She loved how they danced. The way their bodies moved. V was even invited to dance with them. A fun first night.

“Hey! I’m Jennie and I am happily in Dubai!” she waved to the camera after being seated for a solo interview.

‘What did you do today?’

“We went to the desert and it was breathtaking. You have got to check it out. Dubai is beautiful. And the sunset looked so romantic.” she smiled, thinking about her and Jungkook briefly walking around to check out the sunset.

‘What was most impressive?’

“When we went out to dinner to watch the performers. I loved it. It made me want to learn more about their dances,"

‘BTS Picture Day’

Jennie sat with Suga at the table to work as they wrote their daily diary. She wrote about her day in the desert and made a sunset drawing with the members watching it.

“I always put off writing diaries when I was in school,“ Suga said.

"Really? Part of me wanted to invest in a journal to write out my thoughts but then it turned into lyrics so I just started writing songs about my feelings,”

“That’s good. I’m still waiting for you to work on your project,”

“Eventually,” she grinned.

The next day the members were given a mission to buy a gift for their secret friend. They chose a bag that had a member’s name on it along with money to buy a gift. Jennie had gotten a unique bag with the most money because the paper said to buy a gift for All members. Several ideas went through on head on how she wanted to go about it. She could buy something for each of them or perhaps see if she could find something that could benefit all of them.

For shopping, the group went over to a traditional market to buy gifts. Some split into teams while Jennie went by herself. A large bodyguard accompanied her to make sure she was safe. He was nice and she offered him some of the food she bought when she got hungry.

“I thought it would just be one member I had to buy a gift for but today I am buying something for all of us,” she said on her camera with a selfie stick. “I have no idea what to buy y’all. I want it to be different. Something for all of us to share as a gift,”

She walked around and noticed a shop with tons of artwork and portraits. She was amazed by how realistic the drawings looked.

“Maybe...” she walked in. “Hi, how are you?”

“I am well, how are you?” the man stood up, speaking English to her.

"I’m doing great. Your drawings are beautiful. How much is one?”

They discussed the pricing and she showed the owner the photo she wanted to be drawn. 

“I have this picture on my phone. It’s with me and my brothers. I wanted to get it drawn in a big portrait that can be hung in our dorm,”

“I like this picture. I can do this,”

“Awesome!”

After a few hours, of watching him draw it, Jennie looked at the big portrait and smiled happily. “This is so breathtaking! Look at this, wow. They’ll love it, thank you so much,”

‘Bastakiah. A historical site in Burj Dubai region’

’60 buildings built in mid-9th century have been in operation until 1970s. Some are operating as cultural facilities’

Jennie and Rapmon were paired up for a photo shoot. They posed against the wall for a few shots and then Rapmon was seated down reading a book. She sat next to him and presented him with a lollipop while she had one in her mouth. After he smiled and took it, she wrapped an arm around his neck, pulling him in for a side hug as they grinned for the camera.

After the photos were done, Bangtan returned to the hotel to open up their gifts. They sat on the floor in a semi-circle and Jen was in between V and Rapmon.

“My bag had two people in it. So I bought two gifts. For my first person, she-oh no,“ Jimin covered his face, laughing at his mistake.

"Ahhhhh~!” Bangtan shouted and laughed as he gave it away.

“So, you got Jennie!” V laughed.

“Jimin gives great gifts so I’m looking forward to what he got me,” she laughed.

“I noticed that you have lots of accessories hanging around so I thought this item would help tremendously,” he announced and presented her with a large white jewelry box. “It also has your birthstones on it. Topaz and Citrine. So, Ennie, I hope you like it,”

Loud cheers surrounded her as she looked at the box with a huge smile. It was beautiful.

“Oh wow, thank you!” she happily accepted it and opened it. “Oh yeah, this is great. Thank you so much, Jimin. Come here,” she set it down and went over to hug him.

“Wow, I would love something like this. Very cute box,” Namjoon complimented.

“I think Jimin had to buy mine. He chose Jennie and me,” J-Hope said confidently.

He was so sure that Jimin was the one that chose him after Jennie. It just had to be him. 

“He keeps saying that he’s absolutely positive that Jimin is his secret friend,” Namjoon said.

“Explain yourself why you think that,” Jimin said.

“It is?” J-Hope looked at him and watched as he laughed. “See? He can’t act,”

‘Why is J-Hope so sure?’

“The second person I have is someone who likes collecting small things like figures,” Jimin announced.

He took out the present to show the shiny ornaments and presented it to Jin. The camera panned over J-Hope’s facial expression as he looked embarrassed that he was wrong. Everyone laughed as Jimin showed off his items to Jin.

“J-Hope kept saying that it was him, so I wasn’t expecting this at all,” Jin stated and went to hug Jimin. “It feels much better to receive something when you least expect it. Thanks, Jimin,”

“I’ll go next and then Jin. Okay, this is very special to me,” Jennie began.

“Munchkin. Look at me. This is for me, right? You picked me?” J-Hope asked as the members laughed.

“You’ll see,” she responded, leaving everyone in suspense. “Okay, this is very special to me because this is regarding the day we got our first win for I Need U and how proud you all were of me for just always working my hardest in this group. There are days I go back to this picture and I’m like wow we are thriving and I’m cherishing every moment. So, this is for all of us. My bag was all of you and I thought the perfect gift for us was a portrait of my favorite photo we took after our first win,” she revealed the large drawing as they all looked at it in awe.

“Wow~!” they shouted gleefully and applauded. They raved about how realistic it looked and thanked her for giving them something like this.

"It looks so real!” they rambled on.

“Where did you go?” Suga asked after taking the drawing to get a better look. “The artist drew my smile perfectly,”

“I was wandering around and came across this art shop. I’m glad I did. We can hang it up in the dorm. I hope you guys like it,”

"This is beautiful. Let’s hang this up in the dorm when we return to Korea. The living room is what I’m thinking,” Rapmon said.

V wrapped his arms around Jennie as she fell back and laughed. Rapmon got on top for the hug and so did the other members. A chorus of thank yous and compliments on the gift made her heart soar. Buying that for them was the best decision ever.

“God, y'all heavy! What are you eating!?” she joked while they got off of her, one by one.

After they all got situated again, it was Jin’s turn to reveal who he had.

“Wait Jin. Look at me. Did you get me?” J-Hope asked and watched as he let out a laugh. “He did!” 

‘No, he did not’

“You’re mighty confident there,” Jen chuckled.

“J-Hope, what if he didn’t?” Namjoon laughed.

“I know he did. I am very confident in my prediction this time,” J-Hope declared.

“I picked this because he has a lot of things on his desk but there’s nothing pretty,” Jin revealed and took the lamp out of the bag. He plugged it in the showed them how it looked and they all complimented it on how fancy it appeared. “The person with a messy desk is Jungkook,”

“Wow, awesome!” Jungkook took the lamp out of his hands. “Jin hyung, I’m so touched!”

“Glad you like it,”

“Thanks, Jin,” he high fived him.

“It’s awkward,” J-Hope scratched the side of his neck and laughed that he still had not been chosen individually. “Whoever bought my present must feel awkward now. Who bought mine?”

Jungkook took out the gift he bought. “Well, this person really likes clothes. He likes accessories, too,“

“It’s V,” J-Hope assumed.

‘How can he not know?’

“He likes something fancy but something simple, too. Here’s a bracelet first,” Jungkook revealed the present out of the bag and then the shirt and bag.

‘Gotta be J-Hope this time,’ Jennie thought as she giggled at him being oblivious to the hints.

“But I think this is the big hint. See? It’s green.” Namjoon pointed out as realization hit Hobi like a truck and he laughed with Jungkook who smacked his chest.

“Wow, I had no idea,” he said as the members playfully made fun of how bad his guesses were.

Next up was Hobi to revealed the gift he bought as he explained that it was a Dubai fragrance. 

“I hope he remembers what we did today whenever he smells this fragrance. Suga!”

“I knew it!” he grinned and received it. “We went to the fragrance store together. I said I like how it smells and he bought it,”

After spraying some for everyone to smell, Suga grabbed his gift to present. “I bought this for him because he’s into accessories these days. When I first saw this, I thought it goes really well with what he usually wears. It’s a ring,”

He took it out of the bag and presented the silver ring. Once they saw how big it was everyone knew it was for Rapmon as he let out a laugh.

“I wasn’t sure which size to get,” Suga said but it fit perfectly on Rapmon and he was satisfied with the ring.

After thanking Suga for the gift, he grabbed the present he bought. “When I was getting his present, I knew I was going to get him and it really happened. V was born in December, right? The birthstone for December is turquoise,”

After explaining, he revealed the necklaces and bracelets with turquoise in them as everyone looked at them in amazement. Rapmon then explained that wearing his birthstone would bring good luck.

“You’re starting a drama, too. I wish you good luck and success,” Rapmon applauded him.

Lastly was V who had Jimin as he thought this gift would be useful for him. He revealed golden playing cards that excited all of them while Jimin had his eyes closed.

“Jimin has been playing this game a lot,” V said.

“It’s one-card,” Suga laughed.

“Oh, I know what it is. I think it’s a golden deck of playing cards,” he figured out. “Someone was trying to sell them to me,”

After being given the cards, Jimin shuffled them and Bangtan was impressed with how he shuffled them with ease. After enjoying their gifts, the members spent their last day at the hotel taking photos and writing in their diaries. 

On their last day, they spent time in the pool area to play some games.

‘BTS having fun in the water at a swimming pool in Dubai’

‘Playing three games in two teams. The winning team will get 1,500 AED!’

‘Which team will win?’

The teams were divided by older vs younger members and the first game was the relay swimming. The rules were simple. Swim to the other side and choose an item.

First up was Suga vs Jungkook as they ran in the pool.

“Wow! Min Suga! Go Min Suga!” Rapmon cheered.

“Come on, Jungkook! You got this!” Jennie shouted as he managed to pass the halfway point first.

Jungkook picked up a watermelon ball while Suga picked up a tube to swim back to their teams. Jungkook made it to his team first and V ran into the water. Suga slowly made it back to his team as Jennie laughed.

“I tried my best, I tried my best,” Suga said out of breath.

“Oh my gosh. It was smart for us to get the ball instead. The tube is slowing the other team down,” she said next to Jimin as Rap Monster accelerated slowly.

As the game progressed J-Hope caught up with V and started playing around, trying to stop each other from going.

“V!” Jennie laughed when he suddenly threw the ball, allowing J-Hope to make it to his team first.

J-Hope gave the tube to Jin and he quickly swam forward while V was still far behind, trying to swim back with the ball.

“V~! Get over here! We’re losing!” Jimin wailed.

Loud cheers from the older team got louder as Jin progressed. Once V gave the ball to Jennie, Jin progressed to the half waypoint.

Now, this was pressure.

Jen ran in and swam as fast as she could but sadly, the older guys won and celebrated. Once she made it back, Jimin and Jungkook looked displeased that they lost all because V had messed up and Jennie didn’t swim fast enough to catch up.

“Sorry,” she frowned.

“I don’t even know what to say,” Jimin said, mostly to V who was the main reason for the defeat.

“Guys, it’s fine~! We’ll get them next time,” she reassured. “You tried your best V, don’t even worry about it,”

However, Jungkook and Jimin didn’t listen and decided to punish V by giving him a smack on the butt and kicked him into the pool.

‘2nd game. Calvary Battle’

‘One person from each team wears a hat. Whoever takes off their opponent’s hat or pushes them into the water wins.’

It was decided that Jungkook was going to go up against Jin. Jennie aided Jimin and V to lift him up while Jin’s teammates did the same.

“Go!” a staff member shouted.

Jin attacked first but Jungkook swiftly leaned back to avoid it. It was a back and forth battle up until Jungkook pushed Jin back to make him fall into the water.

“Woohoo! Victory!” Jennie cheered.

“Yay! We won!” V happily said.

‘3rd game. Taboo’

‘Explain words using the body in 60 seconds. Whoever gets more correct answers will win’

The younger team went first and J-Hope revealed the first word to V.

‘Mascara’

“Contacts!” Jungkook said.

“Eyelashes!” Jimin shouted

“It’s mascara!” Jen answered which immediately got a smile from V.

‘Statue of Liberty’

V posed just like the statue and Jungkook answered it correctly.

‘Free Fall’

This was a difficult one because the team thought he was trying to explain hula hoop with the way he was swinging his hips.

“I...I have no clue, man,” Jen shrugged, looking confused.

“What is he doing? He’s really bad,” the older team pointed out.

“Next one!” V said

‘Escalator’

“How do I do this?” he pondered

“Stairs!” Jimin answered as they watched V walk down.

But nothing he was doing was getting through their heads.

“A mountain God!” Jungkook randomly answered. “Elevat...escalator!”

Then V showed off his teeth, making them assume it was a vampire. Jungkook answered Dracula and got it correct.

“Poop! Urgent poop!” Jimin answered as they watched V look uncomfortable.

"You got gas?” Jen wondered.

“Constipation!” Jungkook said and got it correct.

Once the older team went, Jennie and the rest of the boys laughed at how extra J-Hope was to try to show off the word with his body. And she was blown away at how easily her opponents were getting everything right. They were good at this game, yelling out answers.

In the end, the younger team got 5 points while the older team got 6 and won the tournament and prize.

“I’m not going to team up with V again,” Jungkook announced.

“Hey, come on...” V grinned sheepishly.

“Gosh...”

“We almost won,” Jimin added as he walked away with Jungkook.

“Stop being mean. I’ll be teaming up with you, again. It’s all good. At least we had fun,” Jennie smiled and ruffled V’s hair, making him feel better about himself.

---------

Off camera, Jennie spotted an open volleyball court and suggested, “Hey, can we play another game?”

“What game?” V asked.

“Volleyball. We can be on different teams,”

“I want Jennie on my team!” Jimin announced and grabbed a hold of her.

The Golden Maknae made a facial expression of protest. “No, she’s going to be on my team,” he reached out for her, pulling her away from Jimin. He held her close into his arms while playfully glaring at him.

“No way. I said she’s on my team first,”

“You only want her because Jennie decimates everyone in volleyball during the Idol Star Athletic Championships,”

“Okay, but it’s unfair if you and her are on the same team! It’ll be OP!”

“V, help?” she pleaded as she was in the middle of this tug of war.

V did help get her out of it as they watched Jimin and Jungkook bicker.

“OP? What is OP?” Namjoon asked.

“Over Powered. Overpowering. You know. Like in video games,” Jen explained.

After some serious protest, the teams were split up so that JenKook could face each other. Jen had Jimin, J-Hope, and Namjoon while Jungkook had V, Suga, and Jin.

“Okay babe, be prepared to lose,” she stuck her tongue out at Jungkook, initiating his competitive side.

“We’ll see about that,” he answered.

The game started great, a back and forth battle. Even though Jungkook said he wouldn’t team up with V because he made their team lose, V was doing a great job keeping the ball up in the air. 

Jennie spiked the ball but Jungkook managed to block it. “Darn it!“

"Move faster, honey,” he teased her.

“Shut it!”

As the game progressed, she watched as Jin prepared to hit the ball over the net. She dashed forward and jumped high in the air while throwing her hands up. The ball smacked against her palm and managed to stay on his side, winning a point for her team.

Their game had a lot of close calls along with Jimin and Jin bickering. But in the end, Jen’s team won thanks to Namjoon’s unexpected spike.

“Yes!” she ran and jumped on his back, giving him multiple kisses on his cheek. “We did it!”

In the evening, the group went to the Dubai Mall and watched the largest fountain show during dinner. They took tons of photos and videos of the sight and then went to stand around to get a better view.

With the cameras away from them, Jungkook stood behind Jen and kissed her cheek as they watched the show.

The next day for the Festa, a surprise video for BTS’ YouTube channel was released. Armies were surprised to see it was Jin in the kitchen, with an apron on while cooking. Then he turned around.

“There is a certain someone that I have unfinished business with Army,” he spoke. “Someone by the name of Miss Bangtan. I want my championship. The K-Pop title is supposed to be mine and I demand a rematch! You see, I was going easy on you and I’ll admit I underestimated you. But this time, I won’t be holding back! Jin will show no mercy this time! I mean it! I will win! I am worldwide handsome, do you understand!?“

The caption, ‘StopJennie2K16’ came up on the screen

“This time, it will be the match of my choosing. After doing my research on types of wrestling matches, I challenge you to a Falls Count Anywhere match! We wrestle everywhere! At any time! I am taller than you! I am stronger than you, and I will beat you! Jin versus Jennie part 2, coming very soon on your local Bangtan Bomb! Now...accept my challenge, missy! That title needs a more worthy champion to hold it,” he pointed his spatula at the camera and signed out after blowing a kiss.

-------

For the day of their birthday festa event for V-Live, the members were currently at their dress rehearsal. Everyone seemed to be anticipating Jin and Rapmon’s dance battles the most as they sat in their seats.

“You’re freaking cool!” V encouraged as the lights went out, with Rapmon waiting for the music to come on. “Woo!”

“Okay!” Jen cheered as he began to dance.

Yoongi and Hobi started laughing as they watched him.

“His expression is daebak!” Suga said

“Oooooohhhhhh!” V cheered.

After he finished his last move, Jen started screaming with the rest of the members as they all cheered and freaked out.

“That’s my leader! He killed that 'ish! He killed it!” she shouted.

“Wow, you’re cool!” Jin added.

“He’s good. Really good,” Jimin praised.

“Hyung’s coming now,” Jungkook announced on the mic. 

“Wooooooooo! Let’s go Jin!” Jennie cheered as the lights popped on and he began to dance. 

Yoongi and Hobi were cracking up while she and V were bouncing in their seats, vibing to his performance.

“He’s so, so awesome!” Jimin spoke.

“Okay! Okay! I see you, Jin! That’s what I’m talking about!” Jennie shouted.

She was proud of them both. They worked so hard and it paid off. She knew viewers were going to enjoy it.

Next up was Jen, Jungkook, and Jimin’s coming of age ceremony.

“Ah, I think it’s going to be so embarrassing,” Jimin called out.

“We’ll look forward to it!” Jin announced.

“We're going to kill it! We'll be fine,” Jen cheered.

“Fighting!” V quickly said.

As the song came on, the members watched them dance. Jen was in the middle for the performance, giving it 110% as the members cheered.

"Look at Jennie!" Rapmon cheered. "Go, Jennie!"

Hobi pointed out that Jimin had gotten some of the dance moves wrong in the beginning.

“Their moves are different from each other!” Jin called out.

nan ije deo isang sonyeoga aniyeyo

geudae deo isang mangseoriji marayo

geudae gidaryeodeon mankeum

nado oneureul gidaryeosseoyo

jangmi seumusongil naege jwoyo

As the lights went out, they reappeared for their dance break which made the members laugh and watch in awe. 

Next up was Sope’s vocal duet. Jennie sat with Jungkook for this performance. Suga started singing first, walking on stage with Hobi.

“Okay! Vocals!” she praised, waving her arm around

“Everybody! Stand up! Clap! Clap!” J-Hope announced as he jumped around.

Jimin covered his face, laughing while Jennie stood up with her phone. Putting the flashlight on, she started waving it around. When Hobi started screaming into the mic, she sat back down and laughed, covering her mouth while Jungkook stomped his feet and slapped his thigh while laughing.

“Oh my gosh...” she said as they continued to sing all extra.

“My throat freaking hurts,” J-Hope said in the mic after they finished.

“That was cool,” Rapmon stated. “You guys are cool. Really cool.”

“You guys are good.” Jin praised.

“Jennie, you’re up,” the staff announced.

“Oh boy,” she got out of her seat and made her way to the stage.

“ENNIE!” V and Jimin cheered.

“Go, Jennie! Go, Jennie! Go! Go! Go, Jennie!” Hobi rapped.

“This is going to be funny,” Rapmon chuckled.

A couch was already placed on the stage and she kneeled behind it as the lights went out. As soon as the music came on, the lights popped back on and she rose up to sit on the couch and began to sing. The guys watched her admiringly and even laughed since they knew how much she preferred more badass concepts.

Hobi studied the intensity of her movements, making sure she was doing the moves right since she had asked him about a few dance moves while practicing. Rapmon nodded his head to the beat while the Maknae Line started dancing, swaying in their seats. Periodically they would shout silly things to cheer her on.

“Perfect weather can’t get no better,” she rapped.

“OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” the guys shouted as she started rapping on the couch.

Tonight, It’s the night

boreumdareul jomyeong sama

sarangeul soksagigi ttak joheun bam

gibun joheun nalssi yeolhansi wanbyeokhan seting

haneulmajeodo uril chukbokhana bwa

Suga nodded in approval and stood up to applaud. “This is my smartie!" 

After she finished her performance, Suga jumped up and down, "WOOOOOOO! My smartie!”

After getting off stage, she was met by high fives from the guys, who congratulated her on a job well done.

“I’m proud of smartie! She has done well with the rap!” Suga smiled at the camera.

“He’s so happy,” Hobi giggled.

Next up was V’s Cypher pt 3 solo stage which was what Jennie had been anticipating the most. She stood on the side of the stage with the members.

As the song began, V began bouncing. “Ohhhhh. Oh, oh, oh. Do you know this song?” he asked as Jennie danced with Hobi.

V even was wearing Suga’s outfit for the occasion as he began rapping his heart out.

niga mueoseul hadeun I will kill for

“Who the man told you crazy? Who the fella told you crazy, I’m better than ya lazy,” Jen mouthed, pointing to the camera.

kibodeuro hiphap haneun nomdeulboda

baek baeneun yeolsimhi salji

Rapmon squinted his eyes shut, trying to keep his laughs in as he covered his mouth. “I can’t,”

Suga had his arms crossed as he chuckled while watching V rap. Jennie looked like a proud best friend watching him rap while the rest of the guys stood there, staring at him.

“Hi, I’m Kim Taehyung, I’m so happy I get to rap like this. Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho- oh shit!” he rapped passionately.

The guys continued to laugh as Jimin threw his body forward, holding his stomach while Jennie continued bopping around with a proud smile on her face. Everyone made their way on stage as V started bouncing around for the chorus.

Haterdeureun manchi

“Okay!” Jen shouted on the mic, hyping him up while bending her knees slightly, rocking to the beat.

But no problem, I kill

“All right!”

nal mutgi wihae nae keorieoeda padaeneun sapjil

“Say what!? Frankly, you don’t what!? You can’t control my shit!”

bulsineul chamanaen ninjaga dwae dasi dorawatji

As he continued to rap J-Hope’s part, V started dabbing, which made them all laugh and copy his movements behind him. As the chorus came on again, V started dabbing around and Jen joined him as they jumped all over the stage dancing with each other. Suga took over his own verse before V could as they all laughed. And then V joined in.

nuga nae dwieseo nareul yeotmaegideun

nideuri chyeonol ttae urin segyeilju

“Uh! Uh! Okay? Okay? Fuck it up!” she rocked back and forth.

After the song ended, even the staff was laughing.

“You’re good,” Rapmon said.

“So we will watch him quietly like this during the middle and then when it’s Suga hyung’s verse, Suga hyung will rap,” Hobi said.

“I’ll create a surprise twist,” Suga replied.

“Yeah, do the twist, then V goes and then we can-“

“Together. Everyone do it together,” Rapmon suggested.

“And then at the last chorus, we’ll all play together,” Hobi added.

“This wasn’t planned, right?” Jimin asked.

-------

For the opening of the show, Jin and Jen waited for their cue as the camera was now on Jimin and J-Hope. The camera panned to them and they both picked up the piece of paper and held it together as it said, ‘BTS Happy Birthday’

They turned to each other, smiled, and started walking towards the stage. Then they turned around and blocked the camera with their hands.

“Hey, is this your first three year anniversary party?” Rapmon announced, opening up for Dope over the screaming fans who waved their Army Bombs.

After performing Dope, they stood on stage together and did their signature greeting. Rapmon started off by greeting the fans and saying that they were streaming on V-Live+. For the event, J-Hope and Jimin were today’s MCs.

“This segment is to recognize BTS’s three hard years and Army fans,” J-Hope announced. “It’s called BTS Awards.”

“Last week, we asked fans to pick our best photo, the best Bangtan Bomb, and the best moment for BTS,” Jimin said. “Let’s see the candidates and see who got first,”

There were chairs placed for each member as they took a seat. Jennie sat in between Suga and V. They checked out the candidates for best photo as they looked at the screen.

“Oh wow~!” Jen said. 

One was from the fire MV, the other was from their three year anniversary and the other seemed like it was from the Begins concert. The members watched as Jimin unveiled each photo which had a variety of dots on them to determine which one had the most votes.

“You need help?” Jennie laughed when Jimin pulled off the cover for the first picture but it almost fell over and J-Hope had to fix it.

“He always needs help,” Jungkook replied, making them laugh.

“Jimin, this almost fell over,” J-Hope said. “Don’t do that,”

In the end, the Begins concert photo got the most votes.

“Let’s pick our best BTS Bomb,” Jimin said as they looked at the screen.

The one where they were having fun in the hotel, got the most votes.

For BTS’ best moment, everyone voted for when they debuted. 

“That day was the start of our journey. So many memorable moments. We’re extremely grateful for you all being there for us for three years. Let’s hope for many more.” Jen beamed.

“We’re more than happy about this. I heard our Army fans have awards for us too,” Suga added.

“In our special BTS Awards, Army fans prepared awards for BTS,” J-Hope announced. “Rap Monster. The first of many. 772 Award.” he said as 772 meant clumsy.

“I present this award for his excellence. From BTS army fans June 13, 2016. There are other awards. Destroyed the world award.” Jimin announced.

That made Jen laugh with Rapmon and the audience. Rapmon also won the buy two shoes with 10,000 won award.

Jin won the looks good every day, Old Man’s Jokes, Everything tastes good/tasty meals, and Korean meals awards.

“He got five awards. I’m envious.” Suga said.

“Thank you. I’ll make an old man’s joke to honor this moment.” Jin said. “What’s the biggest nose in the world?”

Suga won ‘Otousan’, ‘Suga genius best man’ and ‘I can die for Naver’ awards. With the Otousan award, Hobi explained that Suga seems chic but cares for other members and fans. So like a father figure.

“I’ll do my best to be worthy of these awards. Thank you,” Suga replied.

J-Hope won dances like a God, shares hope with the world and You can depend on Hobi awards. Jimin won Jungkook’s mom award, fan café fairy and Fatal award. The fatal award was about his charm. V won A walking case study, Meant to be, and the T-Zone great looks award.

Jungkook won suspiciously quiet, Jungkook’s face but Jungkook’s body, and everyone’s guy award.

“Ennie~!” Jimin sang as cheers got louder once she stood up with a smile and made her way over to him. “Awards. Name. Jennie. I present to you the Smartie Gobbler award, Nike’s force of greatness and cutest DJ,“

“Why thank you very much,” she bowed, taking the paper. “One day I’ll be able to endorse Nike and become a true force of greatness for their product. Nike if you’re watching this, I am still available!”

“It’s been years. Someone from the company call her up,” Suga laughed.

She went to shake Jimin’s hand and then V eagerly shook her hand too before she went back to her seat.

“I want to give BTS an award. It goes like this, BTS always thinks of Army award,” Suga said and pointed to the crowd, making them cheer while Hobi laughed.

For the next segment, the members decide to make their own cake. A table was brought up on stage and there were two cakes on the table. Their table consisted of ingredients for them to decorate.

“Shouldn’t we just let Jennie do this? She bakes.” Jimin suggested.

“Yeah, a lot. And her baking is delicious.” Rapmon added.

“I actually baked these cakes,” Jen replied.

“Oh! Perfect!” Jin cheered.

“Thank goodness. It’s been a while since we had your delicious baking,“ V said.

“I also baked for Army. You’ll be receiving cupcakes that I made for you all,” she announced to loud cheers. “A token of my appreciation for embracing me here in Korea. Thank you again.”

“Awwwwww,” they responded and chanted her name, which caused her to smile and bow.

Bangtan was set to team up in two teams to decorate. For the teams, it was Jin, Jungkook, and Jimin going up against Rapmon, V and Jen.

“We have Jennie, it’s OK,” Rapmon said confidently.

As they decorated it, Jen used the icing to spell out BTS in a decorative way while V and Jimin began dancing around, entertaining the crowd.

“I need you to destroy these cookies. Destroy them and then sprinkle them all over. I don't care about it looking neat. It’ll look fine with the crumbs,” Jen said as Rapmon did what he was told.

After the time was up, their cakes were judged.

“If she wasn’t on our team, we would’ve screwed up the cake with the cream.” Rapmon laughed.

After the segment, they went to go change, meanwhile, a video was played of Bang PD. Backstage in a separate dressing room, Jen changed into her outfit for the Coming of Age Ceremony, wearing a suit. While she got ready, SOPE performed.

When she made her way to the stage, waiting to go on, she met up with Jungkook and Jimin. She high fived Jimin and turned to Jungkook.

"We got this!" she gave Jungkook a quick peck on the lips.

As the three of them got on stage, ARMY screamed and cheered as they performed effortlessly with Jennie singing the song and dancing in the middle sensually. 

After the performance, she quickly rushed backstage to change for the Full Moon performance. She wore an outfit similar to Sunmi's in the music video in black while going barefoot.

Sitting in a chair, the make up artist began to put red lipstick on her lips and finished up her look to make her look like a vampire just like Sunmi in her music video. 

After getting situated, she stood backstage, pacing around, as her nerves began to get to her.

“Perfect weather can get no better!” Hobi rapped as he made his way over to her with a bright smile. That helped calm her nerves and she let out a laugh. “You’re going to do great out there. Especially the rap,” he kissed her forehead.

Once it was her time to shine, she made her way to the stage. The stage was dark as the couch was placed in the middle, waiting for her. She kneeled behind it as she heard the crowd anticipating what was next. As the music started, she slowly rose up from the couch with the lights appearing on the stage. That piercing gaze in her eyes made fans scream as she made her way to the couch.

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(OK JW Leggo)

She began to sing in a low, mature voice as she sat on the couch and danced.

jigeum dangjang amu maldo pillyo eobseo

geudaewa naui nunbichi malhaejuneungeol

Bouncing in her seat, she shimmied her shoulders. Her goal was to see dance gracefully yet add the sensuality and keep it balanced. It also helped with the way she would be staring into the soul of the camera, which made viewers freak out.

Standing up from the couch, she danced the chorus, as she made a moon with her fingers and extended her left foot to the side.

geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, nal boreowayo

i bami gagi jeone hae tteugi jeone seodulleojwoyo

geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, geudae sarangeul jwoyo (Jen Walker!)

Armies seemed to have screamed out the fan chants because she started to notice it was almost as loud as the music. She fought the urge to smile and stayed in her Full Moon persona.

i bami gagi jeone hae tteugi jeone nal boreo wayo (Saranghae!)

Slowly kneeling, she gazed at the crowd as she sensually rubbed her hands together.

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

Going back to the couch, she rapped, ‘Perfect weather, can get no better’

Which had surprised everyone. As she took her seat on the couch, she crossed her legs, moving sensually, rubbing her legs together.

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

Laying her body across the couch, she rapped smoothly as the cheers got louder,

Everything around us so so real yo

Standing up, she continued to move her hips.

Sitting back on the couch with her knees against her chest, she went back to singing.

saranghandan ppeonhan geu han madiga

ja ije sigani dwaesseo

geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, nal boreowayo

She sat on top of the couch to perform the choreography again.

geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, geudae sarangeul jwoyo (Jen Walker)

i bami gagi jeone hae tteugi jeone nal boreo wayo (Saranghae!)

Standing on top of the couch, she slowly walked across.

bissoge i osi heumppeok jeotgo

dalkomhan sarangeul soksagyeoyo

Slowly kneeling, she rubbed her hands sensually again,

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

Perfect weather can get no better

Laying her body on the couch with her head on the floor and legs over the top of the couch, she ran her hands down her body sensually.

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

(Eh eh eh eh eh)

Everything around us so so real yo

Getting back off the couch, she danced while the crowd fan chanted her name eight times for the final beats of the song. Taking a seat on the couch, she crossed her legs and turned her head to the crowd for the ending pose. After the song ended, she was met by loud cheers as she laughed and bowed.

“Thank you! I love you!” she giggled and walked off the stage once the lights turned off.

After her performance, it was now time for V’s as he rapped cypher pt 3, dancing around the stage.

The members walked on the stage as they crossed their arms, staring at him while V rapped J-Hope’s verse. Jennie danced around, bopping to the beat, watching him proudly. She started laughing while V started poking J-Hope and then Rapmon. As planned, V and Suga rapped his verse.

For the last verse, Jen decided to rap with Rapmon, jumping around with him

Haterdeureun manchi

“What!?” She shouted in the mic.

But no problem, I kill

“Okay!”

nal mutgi wihae nae keorieoeda padaeneun sapjil

“WHOOOP! Frankly, you don’t what? You can’t control my shit!”

bulsineul chamanaen ninjaga dwae dasi dorawatji

After the performance, the members stood on stage together, while V dabbed excessively. They recapped their performances, praising one another.

“What about Jennie’s full moon?” Hobi asked.

Loud screams occurred as she covered her face and laughed.

“I’m glad you liked it! Thank you!” she said.

“That was a very sexy stage, munchkin. You looked fierce.”

“Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh,” Jimin sang while Jungkook and Hobi copied her dance moves by exaggeratingly rubbing their hands together, staring at the camera, making everyone laugh.

“I want to praise V. He did such an amazing job. You worked hard and your dream to rap came true. I’m proud of you,” she grinned.

“Thank you Ennie,” he smiled happily and they high fived each other.

“It’s our third anniversary right?” Yoongi asked. “What if we start rising again?

Suddenly Rise of Bangtan came on, hyping the crowd up while the members jumped around.

turn up!

la lala lalala lalalalala

turn up!

ni maeumeul jibeosamkyeo

naega watda jigeum allyeo

la lala lalala lalalalala

While the rest of the guys danced around on stage, Jennie made her way to the stage, standing in the background with a mic in hand.

“Uriga nugu! nugu! jingyeogui bangtan! JENNIE!” Rapmon shouted.

The guys surrounded her, hyping her up as she performed her verse.

“WHOO! My boys and I started at the bottom, now we rising up! And Watch out cause this bullet-proof girl is knockin’ down all the walls! Ain’t nothing stoppin’ us now, they got my back, I got theirs! We steppin’ over all the roadblocks. Our music is on and you can’t help but move to the rhythm. Don’t even try to hide it, this beat is sick, so rock with me now.”

She danced around all extra with the members.

“Ladies! Rise like a Bulletproof Girl Scout! Rise, be brave! Let's go, Jungkook!” She high fived him as he started rapping.

As the chorus came back on again, she threw her head around, dancing with J-Hope.

uriga nugu

“WHOOP!” she shouted.

jingyeogui bangtansonyeondan

uriga nugu

geobeobsi jibeosamkinda

“Cuz we got fire! Fire, fire, get higher! Higher, higher!” she sang.

uril moreundamyeon jedaero aradwo

As Jungkook sang, while getting on his knees, Jen got on her knees too.

Mudae wie oreuneun sungan

geudaeui hamseongdeureul nan neukkyeo

Putting the mic to her lips, she sang, “Geudaero yeongwonhi geogi isseojwo. Idaero jugeodo.”

Harmonizing with him, they sang, “Huhoeneun eobseul tenikka~”

After they finished the song, Satoori Rap came on, as the rap line performed with the vocal line jumping and dancing around on stage. Jennie milly rocked on stage with Jin and V joining. 

Fire came on, which excited the crowd even more as they performed and they wore special jerseys for the occasion. After the song, Namjoon began the closing remarks as the event was about to end. A chorus of awwws was heard. He then asked the members how they felt about fire being suited for them. After their closing remarks, they ended the festa with fun boys.

------

After the show, Jennie, V, and Hobi went out to have a night picnic while walking Tony.

Tony energetically ran around, playing with V as they were all seated on the grass, enjoying their food and light music in the background. The three reminisced on their festa event and Tony was lying down, enjoying belly rubs from V.

Looking up at Jennie who finished listening to Hobi about his performance with Yoongi, V said, “Ennie, I want to say thank you for hyping me up when I was performing and practicing for Cypher. It made me very happy. I appreciate that.”

Jen smiled softly as Tony nuzzled against her. “Of course! You deserve it. Now hopefully one day the rap line can put you on a cypher-”

“Noooooooo,” Hobi interrupted as they laughed. “Yoongi would have a fit.”

“Well, we’re still going to try and make it happen,” she replied.

The night consisted of laughter as the two boys made fun of her dancing to Full Moon. She retaliated by kicking Hobi in the butt, making him fall.

After they finished eating, they lay on their backs, in a circle and watched the stars.

She took a selfie of them and posted it on Instagram. 'Thank you for 3 wonderful years of BTS! I love y'all!'

Her comment section was flooded with positive responses and unfortunately Matt Rife even commented again.

MattRife: You are so gorgeous...

Which caused fans to comment to him to back off once again.

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.

Jen checked her phone to see a surprise text from Chanyeol.

Chanyeol: Hey Jennie! Congrats on three years with BTS! I wanted to discuss something with you. We have music on our repackaged album that will be released in a few months. We were thinking of having a second version of a song or two with a feature in it. We thought it would be great to have you featured in one of them if you’re interested.

That surprised her. A song with EXO? That would be so fun!

Jen: omg yes! ABSOLUTELY! Send it, please! I want to hear it!

Chanyeol: Yay! I’m sending them now.

She then received two audio recordings.

Chanyeol: What do you think? Do you think we can create something? Lay and Sehun can teach you the choreography. We can work on the lyrics. We’re making music videos for them too. It would be a pleasure for you to be in it too.

Putting her earbuds in, she pressed play while looking up at the stars. The beats for them were sick as she fell in love with the sound. She felt a sense of empowerment with it too, thinking of various ideas.

Jen: Omg.

Jen: Are you kidding?

Chanyeol: Don’t like the songs? :(

Jen: No goofball! This is lit! Both of them!

Chanyeol: So you’ll do it?!

Jen: Yes!! I’m in!

She was suddenly messaged with tons of happy emojis, making her laugh softly.

Chanyeol: Let’s discuss our schedules and when we can work on this

The Bangtan Gal Chapter 86- WINGS 8

Chapter Summary: After 3 years, Jennie finally dyes her hair for a BTS comeback and films her WINGS 8 Concept video.

Words: 9,000+

Author's Note: Some smol angst regarding Jimin's diet during the BST era. And mentions of anxiety. I apologize in advance :(

I'm going to create a smol chapter when it's around that time for the love yourself videos. I'd like to put my spin on it, not going too much into the crazy theories. I'm hoping to write more of Jen's story for it. And I wonder if I made it obvious who found Jennie for her WINGS video at the end of the chapter. I'll write about all that when it's around 2017 in the story. Some ideas sparked in my head when those videos were released years ago and I kept them in my old documents. I gotta revisit them and check out everything. 

 I had thought of this idea for her concept video and decided to just stick with it and have fun with it instead of stressing about making her fit "perfectly" in this comeback. Supernatural type of shiz. And I did some research on using a Damien quote from the book to add to it. I think it fits quite well imo.

I lost count of how many times I changed Jennie's WINGS song. It's getting ridiculous at this point. But for this, I decided to go a different route. Jennie has said that she wants to be a versatile artist, especially as she looked up to Rihanna as an inspiration for that, singing in different genres. 

I LOVE PVRIS! One of my favorite groups. I'm not too big on their new music and the direction they're going musically these days but am always vibing to their old stuff. I truly miss their old sound tbh.

I decided to choose a song called I Don't Wanna Do This Anymore from PVRIS' latest album, for Jen's song. I really like the vibe as it would showcase her skills on the launchpad and I love the lyrics. I'll probably switch it up a little bit. I wanted her song for WINGS to be blunt and a bit sad. Like literally she is telling people she does not want to do this anymore. She does not want to perform, she does not want to be famous, she wants out, which was how she felt during the situation of her sister's play and getting mobbed by all those people. So, she'll express those negative feelings in the song. And I thought of her changing the lyrics to be more optimistic as the song goes on. Maybe for the chorus. I even thought of the fan chant ARMY would do. She would sing negatively, and they'd respond positively. For instance, when RM sang "I wish I could love myself." for Reflection and ARMY shouted, "WE LOVE YOU!"

So yeah, I think that's it. I'm rambling but I'm not going to overthink it too much when it comes to her song for this album. I had a vision for her WINGS video and I kind of hope it makes sense. So I'm just going to go with the flow :) Happy reading!!

--------

Jennie made it back to America safely and Facetimed the boys to let them know. She was lying on her bed, feeling the jetlag as the boys expressed how much they were already missing her. After speaking to them, she finally had one on one time with Yoongi.

"And thanks again for the cookies. I tried to make them stretch but it was too good," he said. "Now I have to impatiently wait for you to return to make me some more,"

She giggled at that. "Sounds like a plan. I'm happy the mixtape is being well received,"

"Me too. So many streams on SoundCloud. Thank you again for your help,"

"Always. I knew it would do well,"

Once July 31/August 1 hit, How's This was finally released and Jennie got to watch the two Music Videos as well as the jacket shooting. She and Hyuna looked fun and the visuals were astounding. Now, of course, there were those kinds of fans that would complain that Jennie was acting 'too grown'. She already saw tweets about it with fans babying her and saying that she shouldn't act too sexy. But she chose to ignore it and just enjoy what she and Hyuna created.

She thought about the filming as she watched the jacket shooting video.

-------

Dressed in one of many outfits for the video, Jennie and Hyuna awaited instructions while they stood on the set that resembled a club different from the first music video.

"I'm getting more comfortable with this sexy vibe because of you. Doing this with you, I feel at ease. So, I am so stoked to be here with you today," Jennie told her with a smile.

Hyuna looked relieved. "I'm happy. I was a little nervous asking you if you wanted to do this. I sighed out of relief when I got confirmation that this collab was a go,"

When they saw that Cube wanted to film a documentary on this music video, they waved at the camera.

"Today Jennie is with me to film! I am so happy that she is a part of this fun song," Hyuna said, clapping her hands.

"Hi~!" Jennie hugged her from behind, waving to the camera. "We are ready to shoot~!"

"This is going to be fun! Stay tuned!"

Jennie let go of her and cheered, "Fighting!"

"Fighting!" she high fived her.

Jennie was filmed first and they started with shots of her being sexy and having fun inside the club while lip-syncing the song. Walking through the club, she met up with Hyuna who danced along with her. For How's This with the version with Jennie in it, the choreography was different and looked more fluid instead of all the body shaking. In Jen's opinion, this choreography fit better for the song after working on new moves with Hyuna. They performed the choreography in the crowd and then did some twerking shots.

As the crew prepared for the next take, the camera showed Jen and Hyuna talking again.

"How was the first music video shoot?" Jennie asked.

"It was fun! It went well. I kissed one of the guys on camera," Hyuna felt flustered about the mature kiss.

"OOP!" Jen covered her mouth, making her giggle and hold onto her. She turned to the camera and repeated herself, "OOP!"

For another shot, after an outfit change, Hyuna and Jennie danced together behind a background. It reminded them of a honeycomb as they lip-synced.

Before Jen knew it, she was in the area she wanted to film at the most. The DJ booth.

"My happy place. Look at it. I am in love," she pointed over to the DJ booth. "Errbody throw yo hands up, we getting' hot, hot, hot, hotter!" she sang her verse from fire cutely before giggling.

When filming commenced, she approached the DJ and asked if she could take over. Winking at him, she placed the headset on and began mixing for the party while dancing around. The party got more lively once she began to DJ while Hyuna joined her as they lip-synced the chorus.

eottae igeon eottae

eottae chumchuja

Up dwae igeon Up dwae

Up dwae chumchuja

Jen was filmed all over the place for her shots. Hyuna had a lot of shots already from the previous music video and Cube just needed more Jen and then her together with Hyuna. Shots consisted of her lying across a table while lip-syncing, dancing on the table, then filmed against the wall as she flipped her hair and swayed her hips around.

"Is this too much?" Jen giggled as she watched her shots with Hyuna.

'As if looks could kill. Her piercing gaze against the screen flusters Jennie'

"Oh no, I bit my lip," she laughed. "I didn't even notice. Pure instinct. We look good, though,"

The last shot consisted of a dance battle. Jennie had a group of black dancers with her against Hyuna and her dancers.

----------

Jennie smiled at the memory and was excited to perform it live near award season. After watching the videos, she scrolled through Twitter and saw what was going on. BlackPink had recently debuted and she loved their debut music videos. Although she was still hurt about 2NE1, she loved seeing new groups debut.

But because one of the BlackPink members was also named Jennie, it started some fan wars, which made no sense at all.

'Netizens compare BTS' Jennie to BlackPink's Jennie. Who is better?' read the latest controversial ALLKPOP article.

It didn't sit right with BlackPink and BTS fans as the comment section was filled with mixed reactions. It was drama waiting to explode.

'So we have a Black Jennie and a Korean Jennie'

'There can only be ONE Jennie and I choose BTS' Jennie'

'BP's Jennie is what BTS' Jennie wishes she was'

'Ugh STOP already'

'I think BTS' Jennie is better.'

'BP's Jennie has more charisma. BTS' Jennie still hasn't shown what she is all about. Her part in fire was cute but I wish she did more. I kinda gave up on her as my bias and moved on to Jimin'

'LOL I bet BTS' Jennie is threatened by BP's Jennie'

'BlackPink's Jennie showed more effort and energy in her debut than BTS' Jennie. Just stating facts. I'd take BlackPink's debut over BTS' any day'

'Jennie and Jennie. I love it. I hope they meet'

'Are you serious?!'

'Ew wtf is this article?'

'BlackPink's Jennie is still a rookie. She has a long way to go before getting up to BTS' Jennie's level'

'Can you not? This is disrespectful to both girls. They both are doing great'

'I'm tired of people comparing groups. Just love and support both'

'I hope they become friends'

'Eh...BP's Jennie is better and prettier. She wears better outfits too. BTS' Jennie has been looking rough for a while. She gained a few pounds too. I miss her debut look'

'Who cares? They both flop'

'BlackPink's Jennie ain't even all that.'

'The difference is BlackPink's Jennie knows how to rap. BTS' Jennie's little Full Moon cover wasn't that great. She annoying af'

'BTS' Jennie just doesn't have that IT factor like BP's Jennie does.'

'I like Blackpink's Jennie more'

''Stop pitting women against women. It's disgusting'

'Delete this article. They're both great'

Jennie frowned and rolled her eyes at the name of the article and scrolled past to look at something more positive. It seemed like they were trying to get her to reply and react but she refused. First, they did this with Alex Reid, and now BlackPink's Jennie. It needed to stop. She was not going to be the "mean girl" that the media wanted her to be and make people think that she hated or was jealous of other female idols like Alex and Jennie Kim.

The last thing she was going to do was let the media try to make her think negatively about someone whom she hadn't met. She refused to be sucked into this jealous and petty scenario with BlackPink's Jennie. She was excited about what BlackPink would be doing and wished the best for them.

Suddenly she received a notification from V-Live about Hobi going live and began to watch it.

"Oh, that's right. Bangtan is in Japan for their concerts," she murmured.

"We had our concert, tonight. It didn't feel the same without Munchkin with us. Jennie, if you are watching, I hope you are doing well," Hobi said on camera in his hotel room.

"Doing good, missing you guys," she sighed.

But then something weird happened on the live. The comments started bringing up other members. Fans then began to ask for Jungkook, V, Jimin, and Yoongi.

"No, they didn't..." Jennie looked on in disbelief at the comments.

All Hobi wanted was to spend time with Armies and now this happened. It made her upset and then she watched as he went to Jimin's room and then left abruptly after a few minutes. Jimin was also stunned because it was Hobi's phone on the live so what in the world?

Unable to keep her thoughts to herself, she went to Twitter to tweet about it.

'Are you KIDDING me? Did you REALLY just ask for other members while J-Hope was trying to talk to you? #Jen'

'No, like really the amount of disrespect is completely unacceptable. The hell is wrong with some of y'all? #Jen'

'You got me ALL the way f'ed up! Don't ever do that to Hobi #Jen'

'We take time out of our day to talk to you one on one but you ask for the others? You need to consider our feelings and how bad it makes us feel. #Jen'

Her tweets blew up and spread like wildfire as fans were commenting sorry and tweeted sad emojis. A lot agreed with her tweets while some others began to complain that she was overreacting.

'I know right!? Like how dare them?!'

'Ennie, we're sorry'

'These fans are so disrespectful. Please don't think all ARMY are like this.'

'I am so bothered by them doing that crap.'

'omg shut up,'

'You must be one of them asking for other members if you're telling her to shut up. YOU shut up! Jennie is speaking facts!'

'What are you so extra for? Calm down,'

'Here she goes always sticking her nose in everyone's business. All the way in America. Just stay in America and go away,'

'I cannot believe they did that. Ugh'

'GO OFF SIS! This infuriates me! Hobi don't deserve this'

'I'm so sad...'

'We don't deserve him'

'I cannot believe this. And they call themselves an Army?'

'Yeah...my heart is broken'

'IM SOOOOO MAD!'

'The sweetest sunshine ever and gets treated like this. I want to cry'

Jen then tweeted one final tweet before going on a social media break.

'ARMY, don't apologize to me. Apologize to Hobi...#Jen'

Later that evening after Jimin ended the live that was supposed to be him and Hobi, she facetimed him after he got his phone back.

"Hey, Jennie," J-Hope greeted with a fake smile but she saw right through it.

"Nah uh. Don't do that. Screw them for making you feel like that,"

"It's okay. Don't worry about it," he shook his head. "They just want to see the other members,"

"No. I will worry about it. You're upset and bummed out. I understand. I wish I was there to take you out and treat you to food or something. That was so rude of them and they are so ungrateful. Those aren't real fans. Don't let them get to you, okay? You have real fans who love and appreciate you. Love and respect you. Love and support you," she went on as he listened.

"Hobi, they can call me annoying or whatever for my tweets, I don't care. What just happened was wrong and unfair," she declared. "And if you don't want to be vocal about it, then I will because I refuse to sit here and let people do this to you. You don't deserve that. You should get just as much love and affection as the rest of us. I love and cherish you. Always. Don't ever forget that. I'm going to always have your back,"

Hobi broke out into a huge smile at her words and began to feel better. "Thank you, Jennie. I appreciate you cheering me up,"

While being home, Jen spent the majority of her time in her room which was also her mini studio. Although she wasn't physically there with the group to work on their upcoming album, she still did her part and sent in her vocals and instrumentals.

For the WINGS album, she was going to be more involved in the music. For now, everyone is focused on their solo songs. She was first involved in working on Jungkook's song, Begin. Since she had been home, Jungkook had sent her his vocals and asked if he sounded OK. Every time was better than the last which boosted his confidence as he recorded. Jennie's role in his song was to play the guitar.

With her headphones on her ears, she played the guitar smoothly under his angelic vocals. Begin was about his journey to Seoul and meeting Bangtan. It was beautiful. The lyrics did not mention her but talked more about the rest of the boys. His brothers. Jungkook kept apologizing to her about it and said he had something planned for her in the future. She was not bothered by it at all and understood. If anything, her curiosity towards what he had planned for her rose as she thought about what he was going to do.

After sending the music back to Big Hit, she got confirmation that it was great and continued working on the rest of her assigned songs. Next up was Jimin's song called Lie. She worked on the background vocals and guitar for his song. Out of every solo song by the guys, this one was her favorite and she was so proud of him for his efforts. She couldn't help but smile as she listened to the demo track after putting her recorded guitar chords in it.

Closing her eyes, she began to focus on the emotion of the song and pondered on her background vocals. This song was about lying and the conflict due to lies and temptation. So, she wanted to try to have some emotion and desperation in her vocals to fit the tone. She recorded her light breathy 'yeahs' in the beginning and sang 'Naega malhae' under his voice.

Be smooth like a like a snake

beoseonago sipeunde

Hearing an opening instrumental part after his voice, she hummed but shook her head, stopping the song.

"Nah...maybe it should be better. Humming is too common. I should do something different," she pondered, taking off her headphones.

She spent the next hour working on what would fit during that part. Her notebook with crossed out words and random lyrics was all over her papers as she worked on thinking what would work for his song. She wanted something to pop and to be memorable.

"Ah...woo...woo." she wrote down. 

She began to sing it out several times in diverse ways until she found a tone that fit with the song. 

"I should make it a little haunting when I edit it. A tad bit of autotune or something..."

Putting her headphones back on, she stood by her microphone and pressed record as it played Jimin's song. The first opening notes were clear enough to give listeners one hell of an eargasm. The producers that put the violin and other string instruments were geniuses.

"Yeah," she said in a high, breathy tone while looking at her notebook in her hands.

As soon as Jimin's voice filled her ears, she sang softly under his vocals, "Naege malhae..."

Neoui dalkomhan misoro naege

"Naege malhae..."

soksagideut nae gwitgae malhae

"Yeah. Don't be like a prey, be smooth like a like a snake,"

beoseonago sipeunde

Finding that inner strength in her voice, she belted out, "Ah woo woo~"

naegeseo tteona tteona tteonajwo

naegeseo tteona tteonajwo

"Ah woo woo~"

mworado nareul nareul guhaejwo

nareul guhaejwo

This song was such a bop as she swayed around to the song, focused.

gyesokdwae domangchyeobwado

geojit soge ppajyeoisseo

Caught in a lie!

"I'm drowning, I'm losing myself. I can't disobey, I can't break away..." she sang emotionally under his vocals.

nae useumeul dollyeonwajwo

Caught in a lie!

"This torment gets worse every day."

i gotongeseo heeonal su eobseo

beolbanneun nareul guhaejwo

After recording everything multiple times, she went on to edit and made sure her vocals fit nicely under his. Things were coming together as that bright smile appeared on her face. She was so satisfied with this. She hoped he and the producers like it when they did their final touches.

Her phone buzzed and she sat back in her seat to read a text from Jimin.

Jimin: Ennie, I know you're awake! Don't stress over it too much. Get some sleep, okay? We can work on the song tomorrow.

Jen: Facetime me. I just sent you what I created :D

It didn't take long for them to be on Facetime together as Jimin was thrilled to see her face.

"Ennie! What time is it over there?"

"Late but it's okay," she said and yawned.

"You should really go to bed. You look so sleepy," he looked concerned for her when he noticed her tired eyes.

"I know, I know. I will."

"I miss you," he pouted.

"And I miss you, too. Don't worry, I'll be back in Korea before you know it,"

"Well, I hope it's soon! It's not the same without you here," the 95 Liner shook his head. "The guys...I...we're kind of all over the place without our Bangtan Girl to keep us in order. We're a bit of a mess. It's weird without you. We just want you to come home,"

His words made her heart leap as she felt emotional, yet again. But then the word 'home' struck her. She was already 'home' in America. But the fact that he said 'home' as in living with them in Korea made tears appear in her eyes.

"Jimin..." she smiled sadly. "It won't be much longer, I hope. Being away from you and everyone else in Korea is a struggle. As soon as I come back, I will nap this jetlag off and we can all go out to eat,"

"I would like that very much, Ennie. So, you wanted me to call you?"

"Yes. Check the email. I sent my work for your song. I hope it sounds okay."

"Wait, you finished it?! All of it? Your background vocals and all?"

"Yeah! I just gotta finish up Stigma and the others,"

"You worked on it so quickly."

"Well, you are a priority," she smiled softly, earning an adorable eye smile from him.

Him a priority? That made his heart leap.

"I played around with it and I like how it sounds. Play it. If you like it, I will send it to the producers to see if they give it the OK. And if you want me to change something, let me know."

Opening up the file, Jimin played it for both of them. The look in his eyes when he heard her guitar was priceless.

"Oh-my-God," he blurted out in English, causing her to laugh. "They have to accept this! This is-this is so good! Thank you for doing this for me. I hope this version makes it on the album after they do their final touches. And if they reject it, let us release it on SoundCloud. Army should hear this,"

"Sounds like a plan,"

After shutting down her computer and ending her call, Jen sat on her bed and tuned in to Jin's Eat Jin V-Live on her laptop. There he was with Jungkook and Jimin rambling about various things. And they had her cracking up with their bickering when they playfully fought over snacks.

But once fans brought up Jennie in the comments, her heart ached as she realized how much she missed the guys. Especially Jungkook. She missed his hugs. How he would hold her firmly and gaze down at her with that adorable smile of his. This visa needed to hurry up and go through. She wanted to wrap her arms around her man again.

"How is Jennie?" Jin read the comment. "My sweetie is doing fine. She has been working very hard. Please look forward to her return. Jennie, you are missed dearly,"

She let out a chuckle, "I miss you, too..."

"I miss your baking, too," he added, making her laugh at the screen. "Bake for me when you come back. Just don't tell the others,"

"We're sitting right here, Hyung!" Jimin called out. "Bake for me, not him!"

"Hush!" Jin playfully smacked him while Jungkook laughed. Turning back to the camera like he knew she was watching, he continued. "The dorm doesn't smell that great without your bath and body works items. You know, the ones you always buy for us. Please return soon and get the visa straightened out. I look at your picture in my wallet every day," he showed Armies the photo of him and her back in 2015.

"He still has that picture?" Jen murmured as she smiled.

"Jungkookie misses her the most," Jimin teased, making the Golden Maknae blush and look down shyly.

"Of course, she's my best friend. I bet she misses me more than you two," Jungkook added.

"Lies! I am Jennie's favorite," Jin stated.

Laughing, Jennie went on to text Jungkook.

Jen: Awwww this live is too cute. I miss you guys, more. I'll be back soon. P.S: I miss you the most, Kookie. I love you. Can't wait to hug and kiss you again

Ding!

The sound of bells was heard as Jungkook looked down at his phone. He read her text with a big smile and looked up at the camera like he felt her looking back at him. It made her heart flip and her face warm up with the way he stared at the camera. Meanwhile, Armies were gushing over the loving gaze Jungkook was showing out of nowhere.

'Why tf is he staring so hard like that?! He looks so hot!'

'Omg Jungkook is showing so much boyfriend material right now.'

'That stare! He's making me blush!'

'Jungkook a warning would have been nice!'

"Who was that?" Jin asked.

"Jennie. She's watching the live," Jungkook smiled brightly.

"She texted YOU and not me!?" he complained.

"Hey, that ringtone sounded familiar. Like a bell. Why a bell?" Jimin teased.

"No reason, Hyung. I thought it sounded nice," Jungkook shrugged.

------

The next day, Jennie started to work on her solo song. Bangtan's solos were supposed to go by age. The plan was for her song to be the first but Big Hit switched it and made her song last. The boys had begun filming for their WINGS films while she hadn't yet. A lot of big things will be happening for this comeback. One of them was her hair was finally going to get dyed. She was nervous because everyone had anticipated her having a new hair color since debut and she wanted it to be worth the wait.

With her solo song, she thought the lyrics and instrumentals were fine. But every time she sent it to the producers, they told her something was missing and it frustrated her. How come everyone else's song was fine but her song was getting the most criticism? Her song was different. Experimental even. This wasn't a sound that is usually in BTS. She'd showcase her DJ skills on the launch pad and guitar.

"Do you feel like singing today?" Pdogg asked as she sat on a video call with him and Slow Rabbit.

Jennie furrowed her eyebrows. "Of course I do. Why wouldn't I?"

"Because to me, it seems like you don't feel like singing,"

She sighed sharply, trying to not let her annoyance get to her. "I'm doing the best I can,"

"It's missing something, Jennie. It's almost there but something is missing," Slow Rabbit added.

"Look, this is the best I can do," she exclaimed.

"No, it isn't," he shook his head. "I know you can do better to make this song even more enhanced. Shout it out. Scream it,"

"I'm trying to shout it,"

"Well, you aren't shouting it," Pdogg said. "You need to dig down deep and sing out what you're feeling for this song,"

"Here, take a break from working on your song, today. Work on the guitar for 2! 3! and Lost. Send it when you're finished," Slow Rabbit said.

"Fine," she nodded and ended the call. 

She sighed loudly out of annoyance and ran her hair back with her hands.

"Fuck my life..." she complained.

She didn't want to work on anything at this point, she was so bothered by what they told her. After a moment of getting herself together, she did what she was told, playing the guitar for Lost and 2! 3! 

After she sent it in, she was praised for her efforts and had the rest of the day off from working on music. But her song continued to be on her mind. How much better can she do for this song? What else did they want? What was missing? She did want to sing. She sang as passionately as she could.

"What do you want me to do...?" she complained softly.

She went back to the document for her song and stripped all her vocals to start over. She listened to the instrumental of her song and sighed, understanding what she had to do.

'You want me to go back to that dark place...' she thought.

She didn't want to. She didn't want to think about it. She even had second thoughts about picking this song for this album but it was way too late to change now. This song was to express how she felt the day she got mobbed during her sister's play. Sure, it happened last year but that anxiety she felt and the whole experience still traumatized her. All those hate comments, the pressure, the high expectations, and the growing fame, began to overwhelm her as she realized that she was not a normal teenager anymore.

She'd always appear to have a smile on her face but deep down she was scared and in the back of her mind would always wonder when this would all come crashing down. 

That dreaded day of Vienna's play made Jen want to stop performing entirely and just go back home and deal with school, no longer being in the spotlight. To try to grasp what normality she had left. But after the support from everyone after that incident, she wanted to try to face all that negativity and destroy it with positive thoughts once and for all. This would be a start to that. To sing about it and twist it to optimism.

As she sat by her desk, she put her headphones on.

"Okay...let's go back to that nightmare..."

---------

After crying, belting out high notes, and singing out her pain, she made the producers happy with her new and improved vocals and took a break from singing to dance.

Jen continued practicing the choreography for Blood, Sweat, and Tears, which will be BTS' comeback song in October. She was in the living room, performing a demo version of the song while Vienna and Alani were on their phones chilling nearby. Mr. Son and J-Hope sent her videos of where she will be and her choreography for the comeback.

It was...very sexy. This seemed like it was going to be a sexy comeback.

As she worked on perfecting her movements, she sent them recordings of her craft to get feedback.

After dancing for a few hours, she took a break and watched Family Guy with her sisters on the couch.

Buzz Buzz Buzz

A video from Jimin? What was he up to now? Since she left, the boys had sent her funny videos and photos. This was probably one of them.

"Ooo another video? Let's watch it! They crack me up!" Alani said.

"Yeah, why not?" Jennie pressed play while her sisters joined her in to watch.

The video showed Jimin, V, and Jungkook goofing around and practicing BST in the practice room.

"Jungkook! Imagine the floor is Jennie!" Jimin called out.

Out of nowhere, Jungkook did his signature handstand for the song, slowly lowering himself on the floor to grind against it.

"Jennie..." he said in a low voice, smirking at the camera.

"AHHHHHHH~!" her sisters screamed around her while Jen dropped her phone and shrieked.

"He did NOT just do that!" Alani shouted.

"And said your name like that! Are you two-"

"No!" Jen exclaimed, cutting Vienna off with her face flushed.

"You sure!?"

"Yes!"

"I dunno man, that sounded like that's not the first time he said your name like that~!" Alani added.

"Oh my God! Stop!" Jennie covered her face.

Vienna grabbed the phone and replayed it so they could watch the entire video. Her sisters continued to freak out around her from his floor grind.

Jennie was NOT expecting a video like this. She thought it would be meme faces. Not him grinding against the floor.

'Wow, I wish I was under him...' she thought before shaking the dirty thoughts away.

My gosh, what was he doing to her? Everything he was doing made her squirm.

After he finished grinding on the floor, Jin was heard yelling to stay professional while Jimin and V laughed.

Her sisters kept replaying the video, expressing how surprised they were.

"Is this really your boyfriend? Because whew, the duality...girl..." Vienna fanned herself.

"I'm a little nervous about how he can turn into such a cute boy to something like this," Alani added.

"Right? He is so adorable and then he ends up popping out like this. No wonder so many girls swoon over him. Jen, watch out for all them female idols after your man," she teased.

"You know, you were staring kind of hard at the screen," Alani called Jennie out.

"I was not!" Jennie exclaimed as she grabbed her phone.

"She's so flustered," Vienna laughed with Alani.

Alani snatched the phone from her hands and ran to their mom who walked out of the kitchen to see what the ruckus was about.

"Mom! Get a load of this!" Alani laughed.

"Stop it! Give it! Mom, it's not what it looks like! Get off me, V!" Jen shouted as Vienna held her down while Alani showed the video.

"Um...what is he doing to my youngest?" their mom asked, wondering what the heck was happening.

"Nothing! Nothing at all! He was just messing around!" Jen said and got let go.

"You think he was? He looked pretty serious," Vienna teased.

He was just joking...right?

Or perhaps he wasn't. Because her head began to go crazy with the way he said her name so low like that. It'll be something that wouldn't be out of her mind for a while as she plotted a way to get him back for making her so flustered in front of her family.

---------

With Jimin and V, they waited for her to reply. Curious as to why she had not responded yet, they looked back at the message and saw that she had read it. The two burst out into laughter.

"Jungkook, I think you killed your girlfriend," Jimin giggled.

"I did?" he asked, surprised. "What happened?"

"She hasn't responded to the video and left us on read this entire time," V laughed.

"I-I didn't make her uncomfortable, did I?" Jungkook asked with worry.

"Nah, don't worry, it's the other way around, Jungkookie! Hehe, you'll see. Just give her a moment to pull herself together. I'm sure she's quite flustered as we speak because of you," Jimin smiled confidently.

-------

Back with Jennie, she continued to pull herself together. This man may just be the death of her. She then thought about the time she and Jungkook performed the coming of age ceremony in the practice room and recorded themselves. Man, those lyrics...

Jen: Jimin wtf!?

Jen: Wtf is he grinding on the floor so hard for!?

Jimin: kekekeke it took you a while to reply. You liked it, didn't you!?

Yes. Yes, she did.

Very much actually. To the point, she wanted to be the floor.

Jen: Okay yes but he needs to calm tf down! He can't be doing stuff like that when I'm not there! I'm suffering here!

Jen: omfg wait don't tell him I said that!

Jimin: Tell Jungkook. Okay. Got it

Jen: Jimin! NO!

"She liked it," Jimin laughed and showed Jungkook the messages.

Jungkook laughed, feeling his cheeks warm up. A large part of him felt relieved that she liked it. 

Maybe they could make it a reality soon.

---------

As the days went by she continued to finish up working on the choreography, and went to Facetime with Jimin. Things were beginning to appear...off about him. And the sad part about it was that she knew.

She knew all too well what was going on.

She didn't want to believe it. She thought that her mind was playing tricks on her but his face was slimming down at a rapid rate and it began to worry her.

"Jimin?" she called out his name softly after he stopped laughing at his story about pranking Hobi.

"Yes, Ennie?"

"Did you eat today?"

Jimin's stomach dropped at her question. Of all days she had to be so observant. He would only eat once a day and tried not to eat a lot to lose as much weight as possible for their next comeback. It was an intense choice and he had already been feeling the side effects such as dizziness and fainting as he tried to work hard on his dancing.

"Yeah, why?" he lied, feeling his heart ache.

He hated lying to her. He knew she would do anything to get him to stop if she had known what he was doing in Korea.

Jennie narrowed her eyes slightly, watching his body language.

'You're lying to me...' she thought sadly.

"I dunno, to me you just look a little smaller in the face," she admitted.

"I'm eating, don't you worry, Ennie," he flashed her an eye smile

"I really hope you are..." she murmured. "Just take care of yourself, please. Promise me that?"

"...I promise."

"Okay...I have to go. I'll talk to you later,"

"A-all right. Bye Ennie,"

"Bye, Chim Chim," she ended the call and exhaled.

"I truly hope you're okay..." she murmured, fearing for the worst.

After her conversation with him, she scrolled on Twitter to check out what Armies had been saying about her while she was away. She was pleased to see how much she was missed.

'I'm so upset Jennie isn't in the ISAC this time because of her visa.'

That made her realize that today was the day everyone would be filming for ISAC. She was bummed she couldn't play volleyball this year. Instead, she would be cheering Bangtan on miles away whenever they sent her videos and photos.

'Whatever team she was supposed to be in volleyball would have won'

'ISAC probably made sure to schedule it when she couldn't attend since they know the other girl idols can't beat her in volleyball. Their loss'

'ISAC knows damn well Jennie will beat every single female idol in volleyball. They just don't want her to shine. They did that for The Boss Is Watching. We didn't forget!'

Snickering at the comment and agreeing, Jennie went on and liked it on BTS' Twitter which quickly got a reaction from fans.

'OMG I KNOW SHE WAS THE ONE THAT LIKED IT!'

'She liked!!'

'Who else would like it from their page? Jennie knows what's up!'

'Ooooo she's watching us'

'Lmaooooo she knows!'

'She soooo petty. The shade!'

'This confirms it!'

-----------

With Jungkook, after filming for the show, he went to visit Namjoon in his studio. He had a lot on his mind regarding his relationship with Jennie. And he felt like Namjoon was the best person to talk to.

"Hyung," Jungkook spoke up.

"Jungkook," he greeted with a smile and gestured for him to come in. "What brings you here?"

"I uh...can I talk to you? I figured you were the best one to talk to about something like this,"

"Yeah, of course. Shut the door and take a seat,"

As soon as Jungkook plopped down on the seat next to him, he sighed. "It's about Jennie,"

"Is everything all right between you two? I know you've been feeling down because of the distance,"

"I'm fine. And yeah, things are great. It's just that...well she...she's just...on my mind a lot lately and I can't stop thinking about her in that way."

Namjoon immediately knew what he meant and nodded. 

So, it was about that time, huh? 

He had a feeling this was going to be happening sooner or later with how touchy he's been with her, lately. And with that floor grinding video, it didn't just look like a simple video to mess with her.

"I had a feeling this was going to happen sooner or later. Have you told her any of this?"

"No, I...I want to but part of me chickens out,"

"You two talk about everything. Why do you think this conversation will be different?"

"I just don't want to turn her off or scare her away, I guess. Or make things awkward if she's not ready like I am,"

"Communication is key and Nini is extremely understanding. You're overthinking it. She loves you and is not going to be scared away that easily. When you feel ready, speak to her about this. And make sure you two are alone for this conversation. Not when the boys are around and acting loud,"

--------

After spinning around in her seat, Jennie played what she had worked on for Taehyung's solo song, Stigma. She helped with the background vocals with jazzy oohs and ahs. She smiled at how his voice sounded. His high note was astonishing to hear and she couldn't wait to hear it live when they go on tour.

For Suga's solo, First Love, she played the guitar for it and noticed the hidden melody of So Far Away which had gotten her emotional.

"Take a break!" a loud voice startled her. Jennie turned her head to see Alani by her door, arms crossed. "You've been on that thing all day. A break won't hurt. The album ain't going nowhere. And you finished everything so just chill for once,"

"Nooooo, I feel like there is still work to be done," Jen complained.

Alani simply rolled her eyes and left.

"Well, that was easy to get her to leave me alone," she murmured.

While she continued working, she suddenly heard music blasting which happened to be Rihanna's Pon De Replay. Before she knew it, Vienna and Alani came in with a large speaker, dancing.

Come, Mr. DJ, song pon de replay

Come, Mr. DJ, won't you turn the music up?

"Oh my God..." Jennie covered her face with her hands, laughing softly. "Really?"

"Come on~! Living room, let's go!" Alani said over the music, holding the speaker.

"Rihanna dance party! Take a break! No more album work, today!" Vienna grabbed Jennie and dragged her downstairs with them.

After Alani set the speaker on the floor, she continued to dance around Jennie with Vienna.

"No more thinking about work today. Loosen up and dance with us. It's Rihanna! Come on~!" Alani exclaimed, earning a sigh from her youngest sister. "If you ready to move say,'"

"Yeah, yeah!" Jen sang with a smile.

"One time for your mind say it,"

"Yeah, yeah!" her smile got wider and she joined in to dance with them. "Well, I'm ready for ya, come let me show ya. You want to groove, I'ma show you how to move. Come, come,"

"There you go~!" Vienna cheered.

It was good to take a break and Jen was thankful for her sisters. She did feel overwhelmed with this album dropping in October. There were high expectations and she wanted to make sure she did everything she could to make the songs great with the small role she was given.

Where Have You Been came on as Vienna tried to remember the choreography.

Where have you been?

'Cause I never see you out

Are you hiding from me, yeah?

Somewhere in the crowd

"I learned it in a dance class a while back. Hold on," Vienna began to think as she stood in the middle of her sisters.

Once the beat dropped, she executed the dance break with no errors while her sisters followed her.

"Oh~! I remember! From the music video!" Alani added.

"When Rihanna and the dancers did that pose that looked like an eye? Top tier!" Jen praised.

"Yeah, that was the coolest thing," Vienna beamed.

As songs like What's My Name, Hard, and Umbrella came on, the trio sang their hearts out while bouncing around the living room and on the couch. Once Breakin' Dishes blasted on the speaker, they became excited since it was one of their favorite Rihanna songs.

"I was waiting for this one!" Vienna yelled happily.

"Are we singing it like we usually do?" Jennie asked with anticipation.

"Let's switch it up!" Alani suggested.

"All right, I'll go," Vienna offered.

He been gone since 3:30

"3:30!" Jen shouted.

Been coming home lately at 3:30

"3:30!"

As the chorus came on, the trio danced around, pretending to be angry while shouting out the lyrics.

I'm breakin' dishes up in here, all night

I ain't gon' stop until I see police lights

"I'm still waiting, come through the door. I'm killing time, you know, bleaching your clothes!" Jennie sang the second verse like she was tired of a man's BS. "I'm roasting marshmallows on the fire. And what I'm burning is your attire. I'm getting restless,"

"Uh!" Alani shouted.

"I'm getting tested!"

"Let him know!"

"And I can't believe he's always out every night and never checks in!"

"He cheating?"

"Is he cheating? Man, I don't know. I'm looking 'round for something else to throw!" Jennie grabbed a pillow and threw it.

After spending the next hour partying to Rihanna's songs, Jennie went to plug in her music and pressed shuffle. Fall Out Boy's Irresistible came on which made her smile.

"Hey, didn't you make a cover of this song recently?" Vienna asked.

"Uh huh!" she beamed, thinking about the series of covers she had done and posted on BTS' SoundCloud for ARMY.

"Did Fall Out Boy notice you, yet?"

"Yeah! I met them! They're so cool! I hope we can collaborate, soon!"

---------

With Matt Rife, he continued to search on social media about Jennie, getting to understand who she was and what she did. He even checked out some fan accounts about her and thought she was even cuter than he anticipated. What surprised him the most was that she was taking self-defense classes. Her teacher had posted a recent video of her throwing him over her hip for a quick takedown after grappling him. Matt was astonished by how strong she was.

What a beauty.

He scrolled through the comments as fans geeked out that she was doing fine in America and raved about how strong she was.

'Omg she really did that!'

'I feel bad for the members if they try to mess with her now, lol'

'RIP Jin! She's preparing for their wrestling match!'

'Can she throw me like that on the ground?'

'If she throws me like that, I would say thank you'

'She can punch me in the face anytime!'

'MOM!'

'Wow, she's so strong'

'I love that she's taking self-defense classes. I want to take them now.'

Soon after, he couldn't help himself and wrote a comment too.

'@JJennie_JW you can throw me like that anytime ;)'

And of course, he was told by Armies to back off.

---------

For a while, ARMY began to notice a shift in Jungkook's demeanor. He did not seem as happy as he usually was and his jokes weren't common like they used to be. Sure he'd smile and laugh whenever he was with the members but the truth was that this distance between him and Jennie was difficult to adjust to. It did make him ponder about this being a preview for when he goes off to the military.

Twitter noticed his attitude change and made threads about him being unhappy. Along with that, people were asking about Jennie and her future with BTS because it seemed like she wasn't doing anything or being involved anymore.

'Okay WHERE is Jennie? Thread'

'Guys Jennie has not been active with BTS in a while. She has not been with them for their recent concerts or V-Lives and I am worried something bad happened'

The thread went on to come up with various theories on the matter while armies were quick to put in their two cents.

'I hope she isn't leaving BTS.'

'Yeah, where tf is she? And she hasn't posted anything in a while! That's unusual! BTS stay posting but there is nothing about her these days'

'They talk about her on vlive so that's a good sign things are fine, right?'

'You think she fought with a member or something?'

'Come to think of it, maybe that's why Jungkook has been looking off these days. They may have fought and aren't on speaking terms'

'Like you see the body language of Jungkook lately? They had a bad argument and aren't friends anymore'

'What? What kind of mess is that? That's a dumb theory'

'You guys are dumb. It's her VISA'

'A visa doesn't take that long to go through. She should be back by now'

'Come to think of it, yeah, you may be right. I'm sure things are finished by now and she could come back to Korea'

'I think her visa is taking longer than usual and that's why. Relax,'

'Maybe Big Hit is just letting her spend more time with her family like the perfect company they are!'

'Nah, Big Hit is sabotaging her. She should be back with Bangtan'

'No, they're probably letting her spend more time in America before coming back. They're a great company and allowing her to spend time with her family. Calm down'

'No, they're not a great company! They are ruining her! She needs to get out of there. I hate seeing her inactive'

'All y'all need to just trust that things with Jennie are going to be fine. Stop making everyone anxious about this. Jennie is still with BTS'

Since Jennie still couldn't go back to Korea yet, the staff decided to fly to America to film her Wings 8 video. They rented a big space to make sure they had all they needed for the short film. The company decided to have her video and song be the last ones out of the group. The solo videos were going to begin getting released around September 4th and her video was scheduled for September 19th before they changed plans and made her show up last.

Despite working on the album, Big Hit still wanted her to remain off social media. It had been hard since she wanted to engage with fans and shout out other idol groups for their comebacks like Monsta X and Got7 but she did what she was told.

'Short Film Making Story'

'#Evermore'

With the camera filming her getting ready, she happily waved to it and began to speak.

"Hey, it's your girl Jennie and today I am here to film my Wings short film! And look! My hair is finally dyed! Frickin red! Ahhh~!" she cutely jumped up and down and showed it off before letting the stylist continue their work. "Now y'all can stop asking me every single comeback! I mean look at this! Look! This hair is amazing! I look so good! I'm glad I went through with it. Red looks great on me! Rihanna vibes!"

"She cried," the stylist put her on blast.

'Miss Bangtan Is Put On Blast'

Jennie stared at the stylist, astounded. "I-I didn't cry!"

"Yes, you did. You were like, 'Oh God please let my hair be okay. Please don't let it fall out or get damaged,'" the stylist teased.

"Shut it!"

Jen went over to the set that looked similar to an airport as she wore jeans and a black and white hoodie with a messy bun.

"I have no idea what the guys are doing for their short films," she added. "But since I'm here in America, the staff came here so we can film. Even though I'm having some visa issues, that doesn't mean I'm stopping my bag. We're making this work. I want you to see a different side of me for this comeback. I hope you look forward to it and keep cheering me on,"

She was given a bag to carry as the stylists did the finishing touches to her hair and makeup. 

"I'm supposed to be playing three people today," she announced to the camera with a nervous expression. "My regular self as you see now and then my dark and good personas. Kind of like an angel and a devil on your shoulders. It's going to be cool how the video is going to be created."

"Action!" the director announced.

Jen went on with the role, walking through the airport, clutching her bag. She looked around frantically before rushing into the women's bathroom. 

After recording her walking a couple of times to get all the right angles, she was then filmed in front of a bathroom sink. She placed her palms on it with a troubled facial expression as she stared at herself in the mirror. Before she knew it, she backed away, startled, and began to look confused.

For the scene with her back in the home she was in for the I Need U MV, she did a costume change, wearing a black suit with a black lace bodysuit under it. This time she was playing her evil persona with her hair down.

"I lowkey always wanted to play an evil person. I wonder how long it'll take for me to get into character. My sister helped me practice for the role. I hope she likes my acting and doesn't roast me for it. My acting lessons will pay off too!" she laughed. "I'm supposed to be speaking to myself. It'll be weird speaking to air but in the video, it'll have all three of me in the shot. So, you'll see how it all develops,"

Once she heard action, Jennie leaned her back against the counter and glanced over nonchalantly at her dead ex who was on the floor.

"Welp..." she murmured coldly and turned to where her other self would be leaning over the counter. "Hey. Pull yourself together."

'Jennie channels her inner evil self with charisma'

"Come on, let me take over. I'm tired of this 50/50 fight," she said smugly like she was looking at the good persona of herself.

For the last shot, Jennie sat in the waiting room of the airport, playing some notes from her solo song on the guitar. While she played, someone walked over to her which caused her to stop and acknowledge the person. The camera remained on her, only showing the person's footsteps to keep viewers guessing who had found her.

Once the director announced that the shot was finished, everyone cheered while Jennie happily jumped out of her seat and bowed politely.

"Thank you! Woo! I'm done~! Yay! I can't wait for the video to drop! Look forward to it ARMY!" she waved goodbye to the camera.

Wings 8: Evermore

"I wanted only to live in accord with the promptings which came from my true self. Why was that so very difficult?" Jennie narrated from Demain before the screen faded in to reveal her feet running through the airport.

It panned up to her back as footsteps and her heavy breathing were heard. She had been running and slowed down the pace to speed walk. There was hardly anyone in the airport as she looked around, clutching her bag tightly with her guitar on her back. She appeared troubled as several thoughts went through her mind like she did something regretful and thought someone was going to find her.

All that was on her mind was that she had to leave. Asap. She could not stay here. Not after what happened.

Finding the women's bathroom, she rushed into it and set her bag and guitar down against the wall. Jen exhaled sharply, and approached a sink, placing her palms on it. Slowly, she looked up to meet her reflection in the mirror.

"You're okay..." she whispered to herself.

She looked fine but on the inside, she felt like hell. Upon looking at herself, she was startled when a woman that looked exactly like her, stared at her from behind. Only not in a bun but with her hair down and black clothing.

This dark figure she stared at smirked softly, which caused Jennie to look confused.

What was going on? Why was she staring at herself wearing different clothes and hair? The dark figure even had the same white butterfly necklace in contrast with the dark clothes.

Jen tilted her head to the side and watched as the figure copied her movements. She then tilted her head to the other side and watched as the figure did the same. Swiftly turning around, she was met with nothing. The woman was gone.

She took a few steps forward. Okay, maybe she was imagining things.

But little did she know, the dark figure was behind her. When Jennie turned around, her face was cupped into the dark figure's hands, and her forehead pressed against hers, ending the shot as the screen went black.

For the next shot, Jennie was back at home where she was in for the I Need U MV. She had on the same white dress from the MV with the messy bun still intact.

She stood against the kitchen counter with her forearms on it. Her face remained emotionless as she thought about what had just happened.

The camera panned over to the feet on the floor that belonged to her ex. To ease her nerves, she tapped her shaky fingers against the glass of water she had in her hands. Her mind began to fog up with negative thoughts about her fate.

Abruptly, the dark persona of hers leaned her back against the counter, crossing her arms. She glanced at the body nonchalantly.

"Welp..." her dark persona spoke coldly. She had no remorse for the man. She turned to Jennie and watched as she was still in a state of shock. "Hey. Pull yourself together..."

A loud sigh was heard as Jennie's good persona stood on the other side, facing the counter. She wore a white suit and her red hair was straightened. A black butterfly necklace was placed around her neck as she stared at the body sympathetically. She placed a hand on Jennie's shoulder.

"Are you all right?" her good persona asked.

"Of course, she is. He got what he deserved," her dark persona answered, earning a frown in return.

"It was an accident,"

"An accident? Please...if he's dead, he deserved it," her dark persona bluntly replied.

"She is not a bad person," her good persona denied and removed her hand from Jennie.

"That's where you're wrong. There's a bit of evil in all of us and you know it," her dark persona turned to Jennie who continued to look forward. A wicked smile crept on her lips. "I bet that felt good...tempting..."

"It was a scary situation she was put in. It didn't feel good at all. She's full of remorse,"

"To you. She's more like me now and soon she will become all of me,"

"She will never become what you are. Not while I'm here,"

"Look around you," the dark persona gestured, briefly looking around. "Look at what happened. This is her true self,"

"This is not her,"

"Yes, it is. She won't be needing you, anymore. Come on, let me take over, I'm tired of this 50/50 fight,"

"She'll atone. I'm not giving up on her," 

"Well, it certainly wasn't you that she channeled to do what she did. You're too soft. Enough was enough."

The good persona ignored her and leaned toward Jennie's ear. "You are still a good person. You defended yourself. It was self defense."

Having enough, the dark persona grabbed Jen by the chin and turned her head slightly, speaking in her ear as she glared at his body. "Look at what you've done. Look at him suffer! He deserved every bit of it! This was what you wanted to do for a very long time. This was building for weeks!" she began to shout angrily. "These men think they can do whatever they want to us, say whatever they want, disrespect us, and hurt us?! No. They did it to the wrong one this time,"

Jennie seemed to have slowly gotten out of her shocked state when she heard a loud groan from the floor.

So he was still alive...

That calmed her nerves a bit as Jennie managed to walk across the counter to stand and look at his weakened state. He faintly called out her name in anger, uttering out curses.

"Huh. So, the piece of shit is still alive," her dark persona said with a scowl as she stood next to Jennie with her arms crossed.

"Good. There's still time," her good persona said, standing on her other side.

"No..." her dark persona turned to Jennie. "You know exactly what to do...end it,"

"No. Don't throw it all away. You're better than this. You are not alone and you know which route to take," her good persona said as the trio looked at the man on the floor.

Back to reality, Jennie had awakened in the waiting area of her flight thanks to her phone notifications going off. She also noticed that it was getting close to her flight arrival and more people were showing up at the airport.

Curious about the messages, she went through them and noticed it was all about whether she was all right which made her tear up. Everyone was asking for her whereabouts. But she had to ignore it and keep moving forward. She needed to leave.

Before she could turn her phone off, the person she wanted to avoid the most began to call. She hesitated to answer as she stared at the caller ID while the camera didn't show who was calling. 

Placing her phone back into her bag, she grabbed her guitar out of the case and began to play the opening notes of her song to distract herself.

The camera panned to the floor to show footsteps approaching her and they stopped near the row she sat at. As Jen stopped playing, the instrumental of her song continued to play in the background.

Feeling a hand on her shoulder, she let out a breath and acknowledged the hand. She then slowly turned her head to look up in the direction of the individual she predicted to find her as the screen faded to black.

"Looks like you found me..."
