Jangmi's POV.

I'm lying in my bed, staring at my ceiling emotionless. The only thing that fills my ears right now is the sound of rhythmic banging and Hyerin's LOUD moans from the room next to me. Aish... So selfish. Did they forget I'm here?

I turn over in my bed huffing in frustration. I pull a pillow from the other side of my bed and place it over my face, trying to drown out the noise; to no avail. I can still hear them.

"For fuck's sake, how long does Jimin last? They've been at it for 20 minutes!" I whisper yell to myself, getting out of bed, exiting my room and marching over to their door.

I pound my fist on the door repeatedly. "YAH! IT'S 2AM, I'M TRYING TO SLEEP. CAN YOU AT LEAST KEEP IT QUIET?" I yell. I hear ruffling from inside the room and muffled giggling. "Sorry..." I hear Hyerin chuckle. I let out a huff and walk back to my room, stomping my feet in the process.

3:30am

I still can't sleep. I think I grew accustomed to Yoongi being there with me 24/7, and now I find it difficult to sleep without him here. At least I don't have to go back to work for another 3 weeks.

It's 1 week left until Christmas, our decorations still aren't up and I haven't bought any gifts. Barbara is also coming over later, it's been a while since we've seen each other, and I'm really nervous for her to meet Yoongi. How is she going to react? I just know she's going to beg me to introduce her to the other members.

10:56am

I wake to up the natural sunlight beaming through a crack in my curtains. I didn't even realise I fell asleep last night, I must have passed out after overthinking everything, like I do everytime.

I roll over and check my phone; 1 unread message from Barbara.

Barbara - 10:30am ~ Hey girl, I'll be over in about an hour. Can't wait! Miss you <3

Shit. She's coming in 30 minutes!

I send her a quick "okay" as a reply and jump out of bed to enter the shower. I quickly blow dry my hair, add some minimal makeup and throw on some clothes.

I rush into the kitchen and glance at the clock on the wall - 11:18am. "Perfect, just on time". I mutter, smiling to myself. As I'm sat down eating some breakfast, I hear a ding from my phone. 1 unread message from Yoongi.

Yoongi ~ Hey, babe. What time do you want me over?

Jangmi ~ Uh, any time from now would be great. I want to introduce you to my old best friend from school.

Yoongi ~ Okay :)

Jangmi ~ Um, promise you won't get freaked out though. She know's I have a boyfriend... But she doesn't know it's you. And when she finds out, I can promise you she's going to scream. She's BTS trash. More specifically, she's obsessed with Jungkook and Tae.

Yoongi ~ Lol, alright. I'll be prepared. See you in a bit beautiful.

I smile childishly at my phone and set it down on the table, as I'm about to take another bite of my waffle, I hear a buzz at my door.

I clumsily get up from my chair in excitement due to the thought of seeing my best friend again. I quickly answer the telecom.

"Hello?" At this point, all I hear is inaudible screaming.

"JANGMIIIIIII GIRL LET ME INNNNN!!!!" Barbara screams. I laugh down the speaker and buzz her in, opening the door and waiting outside for her in anticipation.

I see her walk up the stairs, and a huge smile appears on both of our faces. She runs up to me screaming and smashes into me for a hug, both of us falling to the ground.

"Oh my God, you really haven't changed! I yell laughing.

We both get up off the floor, dust ourselves off and walk back into my apartment hand in hand. Just like old times.

Barbara's long hair is accessorised with a grey beanie. Her makeup is applied to perfection, making her brown eyes the highlight of attention. She's wearing simple black, casual clothes. But still manages to look amazing.

"I can't believe it's been a year since we last met up. How did we let that happen?" Shes asks.

"I know... I think after school both of us got really busy, with our jobs and you going back home for 3 months." I responded.

"Hmm..." She moans sadly. "Anyway, what have you been up to?" She asks cheerfully.

"Well, apart from going on the trip, for my 21st a few months ago I went to my first BTS concert!" I say happily.

"WHAT?! Oh my fucking God. I'm unbelievably jealous. How was it? No, forget that, I don't need to ask. I know it was amazing." She said.

I laugh at her response. "It was. They're even better live when you're there. It was the best experience of my life, the best day of my life. Hyerin bought VIP tickets as a surprise so we were at the front, so close I could touch them." I squeal.

She stares blankly.

Barbara.exe has stopped working.

I click my fingers in front her face. "Barbaraaa..." I sing. "Uh..." She mumbles.

When I look closer, I realise she's not looking at me, but behind me towards the foyer. I turn around and face the direction she's looking at.

Shit.

I spot Yoongi standing in the doorway with an embarrassed smile on his face, looking at me, then at Barbara. I forgot I gave him a key to the apartment. I quickly turn myself back around to look at Barbara; still staring at him in shock.

"Jangmi." She says, still staring at him. "Why is Min Yoongi in your doorway?" She says, surprisingly calmly.

I slowly get up from my chair and walk over to Yoongi, grabbing his hand and leading him to sit down at the table with us.

"Um, Barbara." I call her hesitantly. "This is my boyfriend." I say, looking at her.

I watch her closely, waiting for a reaction. It seems like it hasn't registered in her brain properly yet. After a few more seconds, she reacts.

"WHAT?!" She screams. She jumps off her chair and walks around the table towards Yoongi.

"I'm so sorry... I'm just. I'm such a big fan, I love you and BTS and I just can't believe I'm meeting you right now. Your music inspires me and I listen to your songs everyday." She rambles.

Yoongi just looks up at her with a smile on his face. He's clearly used to this kind of reaction.

Just as Barbara is about to faint on the spot, Jimin walks out of Hyerin's room with nothing but grey sweatpants on, no shirt and running his hand through his hair sleepily; walking into the kitchen. He's just woke up.

All of us divert our gaze to Jimin, who stops in his tracks when he see's everybody, including the girl he's never seen before staring at him.

Oh.

Fuck.

I think Barbara is on the verge of a heart attack at this point.

I quickly snap my neck to look at her, my face in complete shock. I didn't mean for all of this to be sprung on her at once. I don't think her little BTS trash heart can take it. I know how much she idolises Jimin too...

I facepalm myself and roughly wipe my hand down my face.

"WHAT THE FUCK?!"
