BTS Reaction ||Soulmate [AU]

A/N: Going to be getting a lot of work done since I’ve been placed under self isolation by a doctor.

Seokjin:

Soulmates were a thing of mystery for everyone, from the day you’re born you’re taught that you have a soulmate and at the day you turn 17 you’re given the way you’re supposed to find your soulmate. For you, it was a countdown on your wrist counting down the days, hours, minutes and seconds until the time you would be meeting your soulmate, no other signs about it, just those. No indication about who your soulmate could be or how you could meet them, it was a complicated process, so you just ignored it. Since the countdown was high anyway, you ignored it. Covering it with long sleeves so people couldn’t question you on it, you were sick of telling people about how you didn’t know who it was and how it was going to happen and having them explain everything about their soulmate treats and how they worked. You didn’t accept this, you didn’t want the world to set your life out for you, you wanted to have control over what happened to you free will was something you believed strongly in.

“Can we just drop it?” You questioned your friend as you walked through the hallway of the busy hotel building you were working in, there was some boy band staying in today and all their staff members were rushing about and then there were security guards rushing around to make sure people who weren’t supposed to be there were kept out of the hotel.

“Just drop it?! Your count down is now in Hours and you will be meeting the love of your life soon!” She yelled at you as you entered one of the hotel rooms to clean it up together, you were a manager but liked to help your friend who was supposed to be doing housekeeping but slacking off.

“Look, I don’t believe in this whole thing. It’s stupid, why should the world decide who the love of my life is?” You grumbled putting the sheets into the washing basket and then going to take some chocolates for the pillows.

“Y/N, you’re needed in the main reception hall.” The radio called, you groaned and left the room, your friend shouting out reassurance that she would be fine on her own, you rushed down the elevator and towards the main reception hall, standing there was the manager above you, tapping his foot.

“Where were you?” You didn’t want to drop your friend in it so you just said a resident needed your help.

“Fine, but you’re on duty with this main group. Their our special guests to make sure you fulfil their every need.” You nodded and he opened the door to let you inside, standing there were the seven band members you would be watching over during their week-long stay.

“It’s nice to meet you all, I’m Y/N and I’ll be looking after you today.” You said with a smile, extending your arm to shake their hands,

“I’m Namjoon.” The first one said, he was tall and had dark brown hair which was covered by a hat but you could still see it poking through.

“Jimin.” The smallest one said with a flirty smile, they all continued to introduce themselves and you got to the second tallest member.

“Jin?” You looked at Namjoon who was trying to get the member to talk but he was staring down at your exposed wrist you looked down at it and realized he could see your timer which was now on ‘00:00:00:00’ all of the members looked at it as well and then you frowned until Jin rolled up his own sleeve to reveal the same timer, he took your hand in his and shook it, the contact of the skin making the timers both fade away in an instant, you took your hand back and rubbed your wrist trying to find out where it had gone but you knew where and why it had gone, Jin was your soulmate, but how was it possible. Someone so handsome and well known to be your soulmate, you were a simple hotel worker who just made it through school and was struggling to make rent,

“It’s nice to finally meet you,” Jin said with a pleasant smile taking your hand again and leaving a gentle kiss on top of it, you were a blushing mess now and you smiled back at him.

“It’s nice to meet you too.” At first, you weren’t sure about the soulmate thing but Jin made all of those bad thoughts melt away, he seemed like a gentleman.

“We should talk later.” He said to you, looking at his manager who was staring at you both disapprovingly, you nodded and he slipped you a small card with a number no it.

Yoongi:

Everyone’s world was in black and white from the day they’re born the world is in greyscale, nothing has colour until the day you meet your soulmate then the world would be in technicolor, or at least that’s what all the couples told you. They explained in detail about how their dull worlds were brightened by meeting the love of their life, with just one touch the planet changed from dull to bright, you were on the fence about it you were unsure that the world had a giant plan like that, and people who were in love were just lying about it but at the same time the idea excited you, you didn’t know who you were meant to fall in love with until the moment they could turn your world to colour.

“Y/N, concentrate please.” Your boss reminded you, you were sat in the cafe you worked in you stood up straight from the counter and walked over to the empty tables, cleaning them up and taking the empty glasses to the dishwasher. The cafe you worked in was a small place just off the motorway and hardly anyone came in unless they were tired or just needed a coffee, but it was peaceful. Your boss was still a pain in the ass though, always telling you to get on with something when there was nothing to do.

“Table nine will need serving.” Your boss said as you came back out of the kitchen, you looked up and saw a group of seven guys sitting around and talking to one another, you took out the pen and notepad from your apron and headed over to the table with a smile on your face, service with a smile as your boss always reminded you, no matter how much the customer was rude or mean you had to smile.

“Welcome to Wendall’s I’ll be your server today, can I start you off with drinks?” You looked up to see all of them looking at you before down at the menu,

“I’ll have sprite if you have it.” One with black hair said with a smile, you wrote it down nodding and smiling as they all continued to give you the drinks they wanted.

“I’ll be right back with them all, feel free to look over the food menu while I’m gone.” You walked back to your boss and began putting the drinks together while he glared at you,

“You’re not smiling enough, smile more.” You wanted to roll your eyes but you just loaded the tray full of their drinks getting yourself ready to walk back over to them.

“Have you decided on your meals?” You questioned setting their drinks down on their table, reaching the last one with longish black hair that had a slight crimp to it, you went to put in front of him but he went to take it from your hand, your hands brushing against each other and in the blink of an eye everything changed, you dropped the tray onto the floor out of shock and then looked around the cafe,

“Sorry.” You said quickly scrambling to your feet and walking towards the kitchen, locking yourself in the staff bathroom and looking around. The walls were a bright red colour, the mirror had stickers around the outside in yellow and blue, everything was colourful around you and you were starting to freak out. There was a light knock on the door,

“Just a minute.” You called out going over to the door and trying to calm yourself down, you opened the door to see the one that touched your hand standing there and looking at you.

“You.” He said to you, you looked at the floor he didn’t seem happy that his soulmate was a waitress in the middle of nowhere.

“Yeah me.” You said back to him, going over to your boss who was grumbling about you making a mess and running away from it.

“What time do you finish?” You glanced up and the same guy was following you around, you looked at the clock.

“I finish in an hour…” He smiled and shook your hand,

“I’m Yoongi, I’ll wait for you and we can get to know each other more Y/N.” He said as he read your nametag, you smiled at him and he went back over to his table to sit with his friends who had been watching the entire exchange and began questioning him about the colours.

Hoseok:

You ran your fingers over the words tattooed across your wrist, the first words you would hear from your soulmate. You frowned at them, who was going to say that, you thought it was some cruel way of the world telling you they couldn’t find you a soulmate and just wanted to write something random onto your skin. You groaned to yourself and rolled the long sleeve back down to hide it, whenever you were questioned on your soulmate sign you lied, telling people it was a matching birthmark with someone, you wished it was that simple. Something cute and nice, something you wouldn’t have to explain over and over again to different people who saw the tattoo.

“Y/N, Customers.” You nodded at your boss and stood up from behind the counter, smiling at the group of guys who’d just walked into the building.

“Welcome, can I get you all a room or are you already booked in?” You questioned looking at the small blonde who was smiling brightly at you.

“Please, we’re under the name Band PD.” You clicked through the computer and found their room numbers, handing them each their keys and watching them all walk off. You sat back down on the desk chair and began to look over your work schedule for the next week, you were booked up, working both nights and days, you needed the money for college so you were going to be stuck working a massive amount of overtime, which meant sleeping in the office again.

“Room 345 is asking for you Y/N.” You heard your boss say from beside you, you looked up from the screen and to her, she was pointing at the second computer.

“I’ll head up now.” You said straightening your skirt and going up to the staff lift, cramming inside with the room service trolley and going up to the top floor.

“Nice day today.” The service lady said with a pleasant smile, you nodded in agreement, both of you getting off at the top floor and coming onto the hallway.

“I’ll see you later for lunch-” Your sentence was cut short as you walked into someone’s chest, knocking you back into the service tray and knocking the food onto the floor and over your uniform.

“Sugar honey iced tea!” You heard someone yell, your eyes widened as soon as they flew from someone’s mouth, you stared at the person who had said it and he held out his hand for you to take.

“Sorry, I’m a clutz.” He said to you, you stood up with his help and continued to stare at him blankly, he was one of the guys who’d come into the hotel with the smiley blonde.

“Sugar honey iced tea?” You questioned rolling up your sleeve to show the words written across your wrist, he smirked and rolled up his own, the words written across his wrist were 'I’ll see you later for lunch-’ cut short at the end just like your sentence had been cut short by him,

“Nice to finally meet you soulmate.” He said to you with a smile, you smiled back at him and shook his hand.

“I’m Y/N,” He looked at your wrist again, the handwriting matching his identically.

“Hoseok, my friends call me Hobi.” He said to you, you stared at your wrists with him and watched as the words slowly faded off your skin now you’d met and come into contact with one another.

“Would you mind if I took you to lunch? I’d love to get to know you better.” You looked at the time on your phone, you did have a lunch break in an hour.

“I have an hour until lunch but I would love to Hobi.” He smiled at you, already happy with how his nickname sounded coming from your lips. You blushed as he continued to stare at you, that’s when you remembered you were at work, you said goodbye before rushing down the hall to the room that wanted your help.

Namjoon:

A mood ring tattoo was what stood between you and your soulmate, the 'ring’ appearing on your ring finger, and it would glow whatever emotion your soulmate was feeling, you assumed your feelings would show up on his. Your soulmate was often stressed out which made you sad, you wanted to help them relax a lot but other times he was happy, inspired and in great moods, you’d only ever seen it a deep blue colour once or twice which indicated sadness. You wondered how many times their ring changed colour, you expressed your emotions a lot, you’d always been that way since you were a kid. You were standing on top of the ladder in your book shop restocking the shelves when you noticed the colour of it today, it was a light purple which meant that your soulmate was feeling inspired today, you smiled wondering what they could be doing to make them so inspired when the bell above your book shop door chimed and you were knocked out of your day dream,

“I’ll be right there!” You called out coming down from the ladder and going over to the desk looking around, a tall, dirty blonde guy was walking around and looking at the different books, he was dressed in all black, a beanie over his hair and a surgical mask covering his mouth. You looked down at the till when he looked up at you, you didn’t want to make him uncomfortable but he was one of the most beautiful people you’d ever laid eyes on.

“If you need any help, feel free to ask me.” You said to him, moving away from the main desk and over to a different shelf, trying to distract yourself from the man and looking at what other books needed to be restocked.

“Actually can you help me.” You nodded and came back over, to him and he handed you a slip of paper.

“I was wondering if you had this in stock.” You glanced down before typing it into the computer, 'Map Of The Soul Persona: Our Many Faces by Murrary Stein’ you knew you had a copy but you were reading it so you were praying the shop had another copy somewhere.

“I don’t have it in stock currently, I took the last one but I can order you one in if you like.” You said with a smile looking up to see his brown eyes staring down at your hand, you followed his gaze and saw the ring on your finger glowing a bright pink colour which meant you’d met your soulmate, you looked at him and he took his hand from his pocket showing you the same ring on his finger.

“Oh.” You said in shock he chuckled at your expression and took off his mask so he could talk to you properly, you looked up at him.

“Oh.” You said again with more shock, you knew who he was. He was Kim Namjoon from one of your favourite KPop bands.

“I’m guessing you know me.” He chuckled, you nodded.

“Can I know your name?” You nodded still not being able to form words, who did you make so happy in your past life to make this life the best one you could ever have.

“Y/N,” You said as you realised you hadn’t said anything to him, he smiled and shook your hand you smiled back at him feeling a little less nervous now you’d told him your name.

“Yeah I have the last copy of the book but I can tell you when we get the next one in.” He nodded at you and you ordered in the next copy.

“It’ll be here by Saturday.”

“Great, you can bring it along on our date.” You coughed out a laugh and he chuckled at how flustered you were, sure he’d made fans flustered but never someone who was his soulmate.

“Our date?” You questioned trying to act cocky but failing instantly as you began laughing along with him.

“Yes our date, he’s my number. Text me on Friday and I’ll give you details.” He said with a giant smirk on his face, you nodded and he put the mask back across his face, leaving your shop.

Jimin:

Everyone went on about their soulmate signs, everyone had different ways to tell who their soulmate was but you, you didn’t think you had one. You didn’t have a tattoo or a birthmark, or a ring-like everyone else had. The day you turned 17 nothing changed, you’re supposed to get your soulmate sign but nothing happened, you were still the same, the world was in colour already so you knew the black and white myth wasn’t real. Maybe the whole soulmate thing was a lie and it was a thing couples and old people talked about because they thought it was real but you knew that wasn’t true because your best friend had a soulmate sign, her’s was a countdown on her wrist and yours just seemed to be nothing. Maybe you didn’t have a soulmate in the world and you were meant to be alone, so that’s how you lived your life. You went on as if you weren’t meant to be together with someone, you kept to yourself and stayed out of the way of everyone and kept yourself focussed on you. You were standing in line at a meet and greet with your cousin, it was her favourite bands meet and greet and she wanted you to go along with her since she was only 12 years old. You were told by the security guards you could walk behind her but you weren’t allowed to stand with her so she gave you a second copy of her CD and you were told to get it signed by each member of the band. You reached the first member and smiled as she went to the second one,

“You’re new here?” You looked at the guy who was short with black hair, you could tell he was short even though he was sitting down.

“Yeah, I’m just here for my cousin but I was told I had to line up…I’m sorry.” He shook his head signing under his photo in the photo book.

“That’s fine, I’m Yoongi, next is Jin, Namjoon, Hoseok, Taehyung, Jungkook and last is Jimin, just as a heads up.” You thanked him and moved onto the next guy.

You finally reached the end after explaining to each of them why you were there and that you were glad that their music made your cousin very happy and that you were glad you came along today because they all seemed lovely.

“Hello.” The last one, Jimin, said to you, you both looked up and locked eyes. An alarm began to sound loudly in your head and you frowned looking around the hall but no one else could hear it, you looked back at Jimin who was smiling brightly at you.

“You can hear that?” You nodded frowning at him and he smiled.

“I thought I was going to be alone my whole life.” He chuckled writing down on your album and then onto a piece of paper, you were ushered away by a security guard and you looked through the album at what he was writing on and found a sheet of paper sticking out from the bottom.

'My Grandma always told me about the alarm soulmate tale she and my grandfather had…I’m glad I had that sign…Here’s my number, text me.’ You clutched onto the paper tightly and put it into your pocket, hiding it from your cousin who was staring at you weirdly.

“Let’s go home, we can listen to the CD on the drive home.” She screamed and began running back to the car, finally happy you were going to give their music a chance.

Taehyung:

You’d already met your soulmate, well sort of met them. You only knew his first name and what he looked like thanks to your soulmate telltale sign. You got to hang out in your dreams, whenever you were both asleep at the same time you would appear in one another’s dream space, you found it weird at first but after a while, you got used to it. You started to hang around your dreams together, going out to the beach, both of you having total control over what happened in your little dream world, you loved it so much so that you didn’t want to wake up and have to face reality. Everyone who knew about your soulmate trait said it was going to be easy, you could just tell each other where you lived and find each other but it wasn’t that simple, it was as if the world wanted to make it more difficult for you because whenever you entered your dream state you couldn’t exchange personal information like addresses or phone numbers, or you could but wouldn’t remember when you eventually woke up so you and Taehyung spent much time out in the real world hoping you would randomly bump into each other. No one you knew had the same trait as you so it wasn’t as if you could just ask someone how they happened to be together because everyone was different, your grandmother told you not to stress about it too much and that the world wanted you to be together it just didn’t want it to happen just yet. So you and Taehyung hung out in dreams, going on dream dates and having fun, you got to know each other more and more, you knew everything about each other by the time you turned 23, you both celebrated birthdays together since you turned 17 which is when you first started to have the dreams together. He promised you’d meet one day and you were hoping that was true.

“Watch where your walking will you!” Someone yelled at you, you grumbled an apology and continued walking through the busy building, you were looking for your sister, a makeup artist involved in the music business and she told you she wanted to go out to dinner with you but wanted you to come to get her from work so you were following celebrate instructions she’d gotten you to write down. You finally made it into the dressing room and she was standing in front of someone as she did their makeup.

“I’ll be right there, just finishing this up.” You stood near her bag behind the client and looked at her as she worked, she loved doing this and she always had since she was a kid and practising makeup on you.

“Your instructions sucked, I got lost.” You said folding up the paper and putting it into the bin next to her bags, she laughed and moved away from the mirror, if you looked up now you would have seen the look on Taehyung’s face as he looked at you in the mirror.

“Y/N?” You looked up from your phone and looked at your sister who shook her head, your eyes glanced down at her client and you almost screamed.

“Tae?” He nodded and got up from the chair in such a rush it knocked it over but neither of you cared, he rushed to your side and grabbed hold of your face, touching your skin to make sure you were there, unlike in your dreams he could feel your touch and you could feel his.

“I told you we’d meet.” He said with a smirk, your sister was staring at you both before she finally caught on, you’d given her stories about your dreams but never told her who it was inside of them.

“Taehyung is your soulmate? Why didn’t you just tell me his name I could have told you about him.” You stared at him, neither of you wanted to look away from one another in case it was some kind of ultrarealistic dream.

“Why didn’t you tell me your sisters’ name, you’re always talking about her.” He said back to her, his eyes still not moving from yours, your sister smirked at you both and left the room without another word, knowing you’d want to be alone to talk some more.

Jungkook:

You hummed along to the song that was stuck in your head, your soulmate had been listening to the same one over and over again for the last day, it was a song you’d never heard before but it was good. You continued to hum along as you walked through the cafe you worked in, the regular customers all smiling at you as you did so. You did this a lot, you would come into work with a smile on your face as you sang or hummed along to the songs your soulmate had been listening to lately.

“What’s he been listening to today then Y/n?” Your regular customer, Susan, asked as you fill up her cup with coffee, you shook your head having no idea what the song was cold. You’d typed the lyrics into google but found no results.

“I don’t know it, it’s nothing on the internet.” You said as you moved away and went to take someone else’s order, the bell above the door went off

“Take a seat I’ll be right with you.” You called out not turning to look at who it was that walked into the place, you moved away and smiled as your eyes landed on the young guy who had entered.

“Can I get you something to start with?” He ordered a coffee and you walked away, coming back over still humming the song and setting it down in front of him, he stared at you as you continued to hum the song and occasionally letting some of the words slip from your lips.

“That’s me.” You said as the time you finished came and went, you kissed Susan on the cheek and left the cafe without another word, the guy staring at you and Susan chuckled.

“She’s always singing songs.” He leaned closer to her table and questioned her about you. From that day on he was in the shop every day to see what song you would be singing since the song you had started with was the one he’d been writing with his band members, he started experimenting. Playing certain songs to see which one you would sing the next day and once he realised you were his soulmate he smiled to himself.

“Morning, what can I get you this morning?” You questioned Susan she was sitting at a table with the boy from before, you smiled at him and Susan turned to you.

“I’ll have the usual, Jungkook here will have an americano. Did you ever figure out that song you were singing?” You frowned shaking your head as you wrote down their order.

“No, which is a shame because I really liked it. Hoping he’ll play it again soon so I can remember it more vividly.” You said to her with a smile and Susan laughed along with you and Jungkook.

“What has he been listening to lately?” He questioned you turned to look at him with a smile.

“Last night he had Lewis Capaldi on repeat for about an hour and then he switched to another song I’ve not heard yet but he didn’t play it enough for me to know it.” He chuckled and you walked away with their order. Coming back again when it was ready and Jungkook was humming the one you’d heard last night, you stared at him and he smirked at you.

“You know it?” You questioned, he wanted to laugh at your innocence but he held it back, taking out his phone and showing you his playlist on his phone. 'Soulmate??’ attached to the playlist where all the songs that had been stuck in your head and then a picture of the cafe as the cover photo.

“You’re him?” You almost dropped the tray of drinks on the floor and he nodded.

“I wanted to make sure you were you before I came forward and told you who I was.” You laughed along and Susan had a giant smile across her face, there was no doubt in your mind that she didn’t know about this and helped Jungkook selecting songs for you.

“But those songs I’ve not heard before…what are they?” He smiled at you, sliding his phone away and then looking at you.

“I’ll show you later when you finish, but you’re not allowed to sing them anymore. They’re a secret until my album is out.” You laughed along with him and nodded in agreement.

Soulmates — Kim Taehyung (soulmate au)

Warnings: None

Contains: Cute soulmates!Tae and Y/N meeting each other

Requested: no

Words: 7, 395 (holy SHIT. I DID NOT EXPECT THIS TO BE SO LONG. But, uh…😳😅)

———————————————————————

The sunlight slowly makes it’s way into my room, spreading across the floor of my bedroom. The sound of my alarm is the first thing wake me up. Groaning softly, I pick up my phone and turn off the alarm, flopping back in bed. Sighing, I open my eyes and stare up at the ceiling. “Do I have to get up? Is work that important?” I ask myself. Finally, I let out another defeated sigh and climb out of bed, walking into the bathroom.

All around me, the house is quiet. I’m fairly sure that my family is asleep, other than one of my parents. I can hear someone down in the kitchen making breakfast. I go into the bathroom and close the door, turning toward the mirror. As soon as I catch sight of my reflection, my stomach drops and I groan loudly, dropping my face into my hands. “What. Is it. With. You. Dying. Your hair?!” I groan, pulling at my hair and cursing my soulmate. Normally, my hair is a nice, pretty Y/H/C. I like it like that. But, then…there’s my soulmate attachment.

Part 15 Gold glowing shoulders

Masterlist

Part 14 You won’t get any sleep tonight (18+)

Taehyung

Taehyung slowly woke up as he heard birds chirping outside. A little ray of sunshine was seeping through the curtains shining in his eyes. He blinked a few times to get used to the light brightening the room. Taehyung turned his head left as he felt somebody snuggle into him. A smile appeared on his facial features when he saw his girl.

A snicker escaped his lips, but he quickly put his hand on his lips to stay quiet. Flashbacks of last night shot through his head. Her confession of who, or rather what she, is, but also their nightly adventures in bed. She looked so cute and peaceful that you would not say that she has gone through what she has gone through as a teen. Nor that she is not human, but a vampire and a hybrid, 'I guess that Namjoon and Vince-hyung are right to say that not everything is what it seems.'

'How many people, hmm...creatures that are like her, in a sense, have I met? I don't know if Ella likes to be called a creature. I should ask her for a better term of referring to her kind,' reminisced Taehyung with a frown on his face and shifted to sit up. He hissed in pain and felt his back, 'Ella has left quite some marks there. Maybe it was more painful than she showed on her face last night.'

His face reddened a little as he recalled that Ella gave him her first time. Taehyung still found it strange that no other man had shown that kind of interest in her before. It could be that Ella never noticed that kind of pursuit from a man until she met him and probably instantly felt what he thinks is their soulmate connection. He felt Ella tighten her grip on his abdomen as she hugged him tighter. Tae smiled as he looked down at her. A strand of hair fell on her face as she shifted her head a little on his chest. Just when he was about to place the strand behind her left ear, the peace in the room was disturbed. His phone started to ring, quite loudly. It surprised him that Ella hadn't woked up yet by the noise when his eyes flicked to her. Vampire hearing and all that.

Taehyung left out an annoyed sigh as he wanted to enjoy this peaceful moment. They reminded him that parts of his life are still like how they used to be, well aside from the fact of knowing that vampires and werewolves are real and a combination of both was clinging to him, ever since he decided to audition and became part of BTS. The band that at the moment is the biggest K-Pop band on the planet. He slowly maneuvered himself out of Ella's arms and replaced his missing space with a pillow.

The moment he got up from the bed to answer his phone, something made him stop in his tracks. Taehyung felt something pull on him. It urged him to look back at Ella, who was still soundly asleep. He smiled as a cute snore came from her mouth. The pull ebbed away but was he was still slightly able to feel it when he had seen that she was, safely, where he left her. Only a few meters away. Although he found it strange, Taehyung also remembered what Ella's mother had always told Ella. Ella's mom believed that they, her husband and she, were true soulmates as they regularly felt a pull between them.

'Maybe what her mom believed, what I believe is real?'

Taehyung shook up from the topic of soulmates being a thing by his phone that got a call again. Shaking his head in disbelief as he saw that several of his bandmates had called him already multiple times before he picked up.

"Hello, this is Taehyung-imminida."

"Ah, Taehyung-issi! You finally picked up," said Jin on the other side of the call. Taehyung rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and turned around to the clock on the wall. 11.45. He gulped as they slept in, even though putting on an alarm. They slept right through it. Not that it wasn't worth it. He then remembered Ella saying that she had an agreement with one of the stylists to cut her hair today, "We have been trying to reach you for two hours now."

"Yeah," heard Tae in the background coming from Jimin, but became more prominent as he got closer to the phone, "Is Ella awake yet? The stylist-noona said that she is going back to Seoul tonight. She leaves for the airport at 13.30."

"No, she is not awake yet. Wait a second."

Taehyung placed his phone on the nightstand and started shaking Ella on her shoulder. She moved her shoulder a little and rolled over on her other side. Tae huffed as he sat down on one knee and whispered in her right ear, "Ella, wake up. You're going to miss your haircut."

Ella sat up straight in bed as she glanced at the clock, "Oh shit!" Taehyung didn't even have time to say good morning to her as he saw her vanish in front of his eyes. Trying to comprehend what just happened, Tae rubbed his eyes and blinked a few times. Then he heard rummaging in the bathroom. A little confused, perhaps even frightened, Taehyung picked up his phone again, voicing his thoughts, " She just vanished in front of my eyes."

"What?" said multiple voices on the other side, laced in the same confusion that his facial features show.

"Ella shot up after I alerted her of the time, saying 'Oh shit.' I blinked once, and she was not there anymore. Upon hearing sound in the bathroom, I realized that she was still in our room."

"That is scary."

"No, it's not Hobi. It is brilliant!" said Kookie's excited yet impressed voice.

A chuckle escaped his lips when he heard Jimin muse, "I wish that I could do that."

"It would be an amazing gift for you. You would never pull a Jimin anymore."

"Yah!" came from Jimin, who could barely hold in his laugh. A little moment of silence passed before everybody started laughing.

Tae wiped a tear from the corner of his left eye, "Was there another reason you called?"

"Yes, Sejin-hyung just informed us that we are flying back tomorrow. He said we should enjoy our remaining time in Riyadh while we're here," said Kookie in an excited voice.

"Thanks for passing the message along," said Tae as his eyes glanced at the bathroom door, "I'm going to go now. Tell the stylist noona to come up in 30 minutes. Ella will be ready by then."

He heard a confirmation from the others that they would do so and hung up. Tae waved his fingers through his bed hair. Before heading for the bathroom, he folded the clothes that were spread out around the bed, laying them on the suitcases, and made the bed. Taehyung also turned over the sheets so that the spot where he came on last night was hidden from sight as well, 'Okay, that looks like there were no sex activities here at any moment.'

Taehyung opened the window to let in the fresh air, but actually did it to air out any remaining 'sex-smell.' He grabbed some clean clothes from his suitcase and headed for the bathroom. His intention; showering with Ella while she was still under it herself. After opening the bathroom door, Taehyung placed his clothing next to Ella's on the towel rack. Slowly, he tiptoed over to the shower. Taehyung opened the door and engulfed his girl in a hug from behind as he joined her inside.

"Good morning, my favorite hybrid in the whole world!"

A giggle escaped her lips, "Good morning to you as well. Correctly speaking, I'm the only hybrid in the world."

"It doesn't make you any less my favorite one," said Tae as he placed a kiss on her right shoulder. He noticed a mark as he moved back to his original position, "Did you always have this mark here?"

"You mean that strange-looking crescent moon? For as long as I can remember. Why?"

"Two things. One, I have one as well, also on the right side. Two, I think it was half of a heart."

"What?" was her confused reaction as she turned around in his arms, looking up to him.

"You can check yourself in the mirror, but the mark on your back isn't a moon anymore. It is a heart."

He saw her eyes grew wide as she scanned her shoulder in the mirror, "What the hell? Up until last night, it was a crescent moon shape."

She felt on her right shoulder with a frown on her features. Ella's face became serious as she looked in his direction once more, "Turn around. I'll check yours."

He slowly turned around as Ella continued talking, "Could this have happened because we had...Uhm, you know."

"I know...what?" said Tae, teasing smirk on his lips. He felt Ella lightly punch his shoulder. Taehyung looked over his shoulder to find her eyes. Ella was quite red, "You know...sex."

She looked away shyly. Taehyung chuckled, "You're still so shy after being so bold last night."

"Stop it," muttered Ella as her eyes focused on finding the mark on his shoulder. Upon hearing her gasp, he knew that the birthmark on his back changed into a heart too.

"Mine changed as well, didn't it?"

Wordlessly, Ella confirmed his question. He turned around to see her look flabbergasted. Taehyung saw her mind gearing to find an answer to this situation. She opened her mouth, but there weren't any words forming on her lips. Something inside him, however, seemed to connect dots.

"What if your mother was right all along?"

"No, no, no," said Ella, violently shaking her head trying to deny that possibility, "soulmates can't be a real thing. If it was or is, then why does the supernatural community know so little about it."

'Ah, so that is what I should call creatures like her. Supernatural.'

"Maybe it is unique, just like being able to write with both hands," said Tae as he pulled her close, "Let's just ask Vince-hyung. Maybe he can help."

Taehyung felt Ella nod against his chest. He rested his head on top of hers. They stayed like this for quite a while, and slowly the shower started to light up in a golden glow. The brightest spot, for his eyes, seemed to be coming from the heart on Ella's shoulder.

"Your shoulder is glowing gold light!" said both of them at the same time.

"I guess this confirms that soulmates are a thing, but it gives me only more questions," said Ella as she pulled out of his embrace to look at him.

"I think we can," said Taehyung looking a little bewildered. Ella placed a hand on his cheek. A soft smile on her lips. He covered her hand with his and leaned in to kiss her. Before their lips attached, Taehyung saw Ella close her eyes, anticipating the feeling of his lips on hers. A smile graced his lips before giving her what she was waiting on.

He slipped his tongue in, the second he felt her lips part, inviting him in. Instead of going for her canines, like he originally planned as he knew that it excited her, he sought out her tongue.

After a few minutes, Taehyung pulled away, biting her bottom lip in the process, whispering against it, "Go and get dressed. The stylist will be here in a few minutes."

She nodded and slowly detached herself from him. Before exiting the shower, she turned back to him, "I enjoyed last night."

He glad that the shower water was warm and gave him a red face because his face has become as red as his hair has been in the 'Save Me' era. He let the water run over his face trying to calm down. Once he felt that he could voice his thoughts again, he spoke up.

"How do you feel? Was I too rough on you?"

He heard Ella trying to hold back a giggle. Emphasize on trying to.

"Just how much of a damsel in destress do you think I am?"

"Uhm, I don't."

"And you shouldn't. I'm stronger than you and the others, my uncle included. He knows that I am."

Taehyung could hear the tone in her voice. He also felt his shoulder burn. As if it was angry. Both gave him a feeling that she meant it.

"Glad to know you agree with me."

"How did you -"

"Probably the same way that you felt that I meant what I said. Through a feeling on my shoulder."

"When I think this soulmate thing is becoming easier, there are just more questions forming in my mind."

"You're not the only one," said Ella in response. A ring came in through the bathroom door, which Ella had opened before they came to their current topic, "I guess that is the stylist."

"Surprise me," said Taehyung, a smirk gracing his lips as she left him alone. Already wondering what she would look like when he would join them after his shower. It excited him. A little too much. He wasn't feeling anything coming from his shoulder. Unfortunately, it wasn't giving any intel on her feelings or thoughts. Or Ella is trying her hardest not to give information away.

'That is if this soulmate thing works that way,' Taehyung rested his head against the shower door, 'My body caught up with my brain. Hopefully, the bond doesn't work that way. I don't know how I would feel if she knew what she is doing to me. At least, not right now.'

Taehyung glanced down, knowing he needed to do something about his painfully erected penis, 'Why does thinking about her make my body react like this? It never did with previous flings.'

'It has to be connected to us being soulmates,' thought Tae as he turned the shower on entirely. He hoped his moans would be less hearable from the living quarters of the apartment. Through the running water, he could hear the girls laughing. A smile graced his lips, 'It seems like they're getting along...and if they keep this up, they won't even notice the sounds I make.'

He leaned against the wall. The water slowly ran down his well-built body as he grasped his erection. A soft, strangled moan escaped his lips as he started pleasuring himself. Throughout the years, Taehyung has learned that trying to calm down didn't help him. A release was his only option since going out into the living space with a hard-on would be very embarrassing.

Taehyung was glad that he had learned how to give himself a satisfying orgasm in a short amount of time. Tae let out a snicker as he remembered the only time that he stood on stage with a hard-on in front of a stadium filled with ARMYs. Once, but never again, is what he learned thanks to that incident. His hand moved slowly, setting up a rhythm that he found pleasurable.

Soft moans and groans left his mouth as he looked down. The precum started dripping down over his length. Taehyung glided his hand over the head of his dick, taking the precum along with the movement, to lubricate his hand a little more. The water from the shower was not creating enough for his taste. The slipperiness from his hand combined with the water that continuously hit his penis made him speed up his movements.

"A-ah, Ella," fell from his lips in a rain of moans. He knew since she helped him jerk off for the first time in combination with the memory of last night, that helping himself get off would never feel the same again, "Ella. Ah, Ella."

His hand moved faster and rougher. Taehyung was close. Very close. "Like that, Ella, just like that. Argh, I'm so close."

The remembrance of her moans as he pounded into her last night excited him even more. He tried to go faster, but his orgasm hit him as he stroked over his length in that rhythm twice.

"Aah," left his mouth in relief as he felt his penis soften as his cum shot out in big, white strings onto the door. It slowly trickled down toward the drain. Taehyung held on to the handle of the shower to keep himself standing. His orgasm had made him weak in his knees. His eyes followed his sperm as he watched it being flushed away through the drain. Taehyung was exhausted from one orgasm, but his release felt euphoric.

'I haven't come this much, of a memory, while jerking myself off, in a long time,' thought Tae as he rested the back of his head against the wall behind him, 'I don't know if it's the bond or her, but it felt amazing.'

Laughter filled his ears. It seems that the ladies haven't heard him because they didn't ask if he was okay. The syllables of Ella's melodic laugh made him smile as well. Taehyung was glad that despite her past and all the events since meeting him, she could still laugh like that.

She was everything bodyguard Young had described in his stories and so much more. 'I'll keep you safe and happy,' though he determined, 'I'll be there when you need me to be. I just know that we will be able to get through anything the universe sends our way.'

His hand graced over his right shoulder, a boxy grin on his lips as he felt something emit from there. It seems that his last thoughts got through to Ella. Somehow, at least.

Soulmates and this bond between them still had many mysteries to it, but they would find the answers. He just felt that they would, as long as they believe in each other.

Almost forgetting the reason he went to join Ella under the shower in the first place, Taehyung grabbed the bottle of shampoo she had used before him and washed his hair.

He let the shower rinse his body of all remnants related to their nightly adventure. Well, all except for the marks made by Ella's nails when he thoroughly fucked her for the first time in her life.

Something had told him, most likely the bond they shared, to give her the most memorable first experience ever. So he did, but also let her explore what she wanted to while he was teasing. Although Taehyung had to encourage her to do some things that she was too nervous about, which was completely understandable.

Tae looked in the mirror as he dried himself off. His eyes glanced over every mark she made on his body. Secretly, he wished that he brought his phone with him when he grabbed his clothes. That way, he could commemorate this view forever.

A slight smirk hung on his lips. 'ARMY would probably lose their minds if they knew how dirty I actually am,' reminisced Tae as his fingers slowly traced one of the red lines created by her hybrid sharp nails. It slightly stung upon touching, as he expected, 'Or how much you excite me into thinking like this? Making me do those things?'

He tossed the towel in the washing bin and dressed. Taehyung was glad that he grabbed a dark shirt for the day. That way, the nail marks won't shine through his shirt. Tightening his belt, Taehyung made his way to the door, barefoot, as he forgot his socks and shoes in his hurry.

Upon entering the living space, he heard Ella say, "Thanks again, have a great flight. See you back in Seoul."

All in fluent Korean. She has changed so much since her arrival back in July. She sounded like a native to him. Could their bond have made it easier for her to learn his language? Or is she just gifted in the languages?

Taehyung didn't know, but it encouraged him to learn English fast as well. He strived to become fluent in her native language, Dutch, as well. Ella had assured him to take his time. "Don't rush it," was what she said to him when he told her that he wanted to learn her language as well. He wanted to be able to say what she meant to him when BTS would go back to the Netherlands again.

He slowly made his way to the bed and grabbed the clean socks and shoes he left behind. As he put them on, his eyes glided to his girl. Her hair was a little shorter but still over her shoulders. It was something else that caught his attention, though.

The stylist-noona had braided her hair in a fishtail braid over her right shoulder. Ella reminded him a little bit of Elsa from Frozen with that hair.

Deciding to test if their English lessons paid off, Taehyung voiced, "You look ravishing with that hair."

He saw a smile grace her lips as she turned to him, pushing the door shut, "Do I now? Well, thank you."

Her eyes glided down over his outfit, "You look very slick yourself. Exquisite as my dad would say."

She walked over to him and took place on his lap. A knee on each side, giving him no chance to escape. The look in her eyes held something predatory. As if she has caught her prey and got him where she wanted him.

He gulped, a little intimidated by the current situation. Slowly Taehyung laid his hand on her waist. They looked into each other's eyes, a silent conversation between them. His right hand reached up and cupped her cheek lovingly.

"I love you," said Tae as he leaned in to claim her lips. A slow, soft kiss was all they needed to know how much their love for each other was.

Ella pulled back from the kiss first, whispering against his lips, "I love you too." For a second, Taehyung thought he saw stars twinkling in her eyes. The golden light from their shoulders shone brightly. It illuminated the surrounding furniture.

"I'm glad we met the way we did," said Taehyung as his fingers lightly traced her soulmark, "I think that I would have never found you if we didn't, especially if soulmates became a proven thing. I might have gone insane by not knowing if I had already met them."

Ella's lips held a soft smile, "Who knows?" She pecked his lips afterward, "Soulmates are fated to be together, according to the definition of the word and my mother's words. Eventually, we would have found each other, but in a different way."

That made sense as their shoulders proved it. Everything in the universe made it so that they would end up together.

"Do you think the others might have soulmates as well? Or that there are other forms of soulmates as well? Like on a friendship base?"

"I truly don't know. Even in the supernatural world, soulmates are a rare thing. Some documents covering the topic exist, but there is no concrete proof. The possibility might be real."

He saw Ella's brows furrow as she thought about something.

"All of you believed that Jung Kook would be awkward around me like he is around various other women, right?"

"Yes," Taehyung had a feeling that she was onto something, "Do you think you might have a bond with him as well? But on a friendship level?"

A confused frown was on his face as he thought about it. He didn't know if he was happy about it, but Jung Kook is his best friend. So if it turns out to be so, then he would accept it.

"It might explain why he was so out of character for all of you. However, I have never felt a connection to him. Not like I felt something pull me to you."

Her eyes were shining as she spoke about the connection. It made Taehyung's shoulder started glowing a little brighter and feel fuzzy. Taehyung liked it when she talked about it. Actually, he loved it whenever she openly spoke her mind.

"Maybe we can find out? I want to know if they can see the light as we do. My mind is overflowing with questions."

Ella giggled at his enthusiasm and placed her arms around his neck. His attention, undividedly, went to her.

"Calm down, tiger. I have questions and curiosities as well, but, first I have to do something."

His brows furrowed in confusion, "What?"

"This."

A little taken aback, Taehyung felt her lips mold with his. He overcame his little shock, kissing her back. She pried his lips open and slid her tongue in. She chased after him, showing him that she could be dominant as well. It excited Taehyung even more.

His arms pulled her against his chest as he tilted his head slightly to increase her access to his mouth. Eventually, Ella pulled back. Both of them panted heavily. Faces flushed. Pupils enlarged just a tiny bit.

"Kiss-Kissing with you will ne-never get boring," said she in between pants as she laid her head on his shoulder. His hands slowly moved and engulfed her into a hug.

"Aah, why do you leave me breathless every time we make out."

A snicker escaped his lips. A smirk evident on his features as he smugly said, "It must be my amazing kissing skills that enchanted you."

That earned him a punch on the chest. Laughing so hard that he coughed while rubbing over the sore place. However, it didn't help. Taehyung felt her gaze on him. His eyes searched for hers. When they met, he could see that Ella didn't look happy.

"Sorry, sorry. I didn't mean to upset you," said Taehyung as he looked genuine. However, a slight smirk made it's way back to his face, "But, you must admit, they're a part of it."

Ella mumbled something under her breath.

"Sorry, I didn't quite catch that," said Taehyung using almost the same words he told her last night.

She let out a huff that he found adorable as she said a little louder, "Perhaps."

His face morphed into a pout. Taehyung moved Ella from his lap. He could see that she looked surprised at his reaction. However, he made up his mind. Tae wanted her to say that his skills were breathtaking. He stood up and walked toward the exit. His shoulder started aching as if it was sad or angry. Taehyung couldn't determine the difference yet. Yet, he felt as if he should turn around and apologize.

Before Taehyung could even make it past the kitchen area of the room, a pair of arms locked around his waist. Ella pressed herself against his back - something that excited Taehyung more than he thought he would, ever since the first time - as she almost screamed, "Okay, okay!! Your kissing skills are one of a kind, but maybe this bond between us makes the experience even more exhausting."

Taehyung turned around in her arms as she continued, "I can't remember ever feeling like that due to a kiss."

"Especially as a hybrid. I rarely get exhausted. Yet, I have been every time we've kissed," said Ella seriously while they locked eyes. Taehyung gave her a quick peck on the lips as he spoke, "Thanks for admitting that I have unique kissing skills, but you might be right. You leave me breathless as well."

He showed her a boxy grin as he saw her smile at him. They had reached an agreement whether it was the same didn't matter to him. Taehyung extended his hand for her, "Let's go out today!"

"Don't we have to fly back today?"

Popping the 'p' Taehyung responded, "Nope, we were given the day off. We fly back tomorrow."

——————————————————

His hand tightly holding onto hers, they stood in the elevator. Taehyung suddenly said, "I want to spend some casual time with my girlfriend sightseeing through Riyadh."

He saw Ella raise an eyebrow as the doors opened for them to enter the lobby. Her face said, 'How do you want to go sightseeing when people follow us almost everywhere we go?' Or it was their bond that did. Honestly, it started to confuse Taehyung.

However, her gaze wasn't on him when he heard or felt her question. His eyes followed her gaze over the comfy-looking couches and past the modern wallclock to the entrance. Now, he understood her worries.

Outside was a crowd of people. Fans and media alike. It seems that one way or another, their location has been leaked.

'There isn't anything we can do about this now,' Taehyung looked back to his girl. The worries and anxiety are visible on her features. Their fingers touched interlaced as he started pulling her along, away from the lobby.

It took her a few steps to catch up with him. When she did, Ella rested her head against his arm and sighed. It hurt him to see her so upset. To encourage her, Taehyung gave her hand a light squeeze. Then he placed his arm over her shoulders and pulled her entirely against him. His shoulder started feeling fuzzy. It made him smile. Well, he made the right move. Upon entering, he saw Jimin and Jung Kook waving from the left side. They sat at a round table decorated with a small lightened candle in glass. The glass was see-through colored blue and patterned wavey.

Slowly, the couple made it's way over to the boys. Jimin was still happily eating his food, saying good morning through a stuffed mouth. However, Taehyung saw JK's demeanor change in a matter of seconds. From enthusiastically waving to concerned, yet the thing that Taehyung noticed was that Ella and he didn't even look at one another.

'There is something similar between them to what I have with her as we expected, but does he know?'

He felt a pang of jealousy as he saw his best friend being so overly concerned over his girl. At the same time, Taehyung was also curious if his earlier questions about multiple soulmate connections being an option. Or maybe his bond was making him behave differently around Ella?

Jimin's voice got his attention as he spoke with his mouth full, "Tae*munch*Taehyung-ssi, where are y*munch*you with your mind?"

"Hmm? Sorry," said Tae while his eyes were still on the silent conversation that Jung Kook and Ella were having. It was as if they knew exactly how to understand one another, "My mind was somewhere else."

His eyes were not leaving the pair as he answered his friend. Jimin's eyes followed the direction Taehyung was looking in. For a second, it seemed like something ignited his mischievousness. However, Taehyung suspected that Jimin had a change of heart when he saw the sad gleam in Tae's eyes.

"You know, you two have something special, right?" this caught Tae's attention. He was about to speak up, but Jimin raised his hand to stop him from doing so, "I don't know if they have something similar, but the connection between you two is feelable in the room. Even now."

His eyes glanced over Ella, but she was chatting with JK about something vulgar. Completely different than the silent conversation that he had seen happening right before his eyes. The topic was her favorite killing method. Jimin and Tae crossed eyes as a chill ran through them, only by thinking of it. Disregarding their chat, Taehyung asked, "What do you mean? Perhaps better said in what way do you feel it?"

His head slightly cocked to the left. Jimin pursed his lips as he thought of a way to explain it. Taehyung saw his eyes light up, "Your face lights up every time anyone talks about her, but it turns into something dangerous when a comment makes you jealous or when Ella has a bad feeling."

Taehyung awkwardly scratched his left cheek as Jimin continued, "However, when you two are together, I don't know, it seems like there is a magnetic pull between the two of you. The others and I agree that it feels like electricity following the both of you. Guiding the pair of you to each other."

"It does feel like," said Taehyung as his hand grazed over the hidden heart on his shoulder. A little electric-like shock shot through Taehyung's hand.

"Is something wrong with your shoulder, Taehyungie?" came Jin's voice from behind him. Taehyung and Jimin looked in the direction that the voice came from and saw the rest of the members coming to join them. Jung Kook and Ella didn't notice anything, or it seemed that way in her case.

Taehyung shook his head, denying Jin's question, "No, there is nothing wrong with my shoulder. What makes you think that?"

"Well, you have been touching the same spot on your shoulder a lot lately. Somehow, it is always when the topic is on Ella," said Yoongi as he plopped down next to Jimin.

Taehyung and Jimin looked at each other, having a silent conversation with one another. Jimin nudging his head to the others in a way that said, 'Tell them.' Tae let out a huff and glanced at Ella. He was not sure if she listened in or not as JK was keeping her attention on him, but the comforting feeling emitting from his shoulder was enough to let him know.

The feeling made his entire body warm and made him feel as if he was floating on air. He got shaken up from that feeling when someone sat down on his left.

"Well?" asked Jimin, once again nudging his head to the others, who joined them.

Taehyung let out another huff, not feeling ready to tell them, but blurted out, "Ella and I are soulmates. Well, for what we know."

He looked at the men who he saw as brothers. They were glancing amongst each other, but none dare to say what they were thinking. Well, all but the one who missed his previous conversation with Jimin, Jung Kook.

"Does that mean that you are fated to be with one another?"

Tae heard Ella trying to hold in a giggle as she answered his question, "In the meaning of the word soulmate, it would seem so. However, even in my world, soulmates are a whisper. Something so rare that there is no proof of it. So, we don't know."

"The only thing we do know is that since this morning, specific marks on our shoulder glow up golden at some moments," finished Taehyung with the information that they did know about their situation.

"What does bodyguard Young think about this?" questioned Suga as he looked from Ella at the end of the table to Taehyung. As the others watched the pair, they met glances with each other.

There were no words said between them. Taehyung doesn't know what it looked like for the others, but for him, it felt like that look between them told everything. A warm, fuzzy feeling floated through his body as they seemed to 'communicate.'

In sync, they said, "No, he doesn't." Their eyes finally pulled away from each other. Before Taehyung set his eyes back on his hyung, his eyes flicked to the maknae of the group. Something irritated him in the way that Jung Kook looked at Ella.

'Maybe there are multiple kinds of soulmate bonds,' lingered on top of his mind as he suddenly felt a soft hand over his under the table. He didn't need to look down to know that it was Ella's hand. His soulmate's, who was trying to tell him that it is okay. Regarding how he feels about a 'possible bond' between his girl and his best friend.

Taehyung would stay true to his thoughts from this morning if it turned out to be true. He would accept it. No matter how hard it will be.

Taehyung let out a soft sigh before he moved his eyes back to Yoongi. His hyung looked in thought when he looked back. A silence hung over their table. Well, aside from the sounds of enjoying their food in front of them. Next to him, Ella only sipped on a cup of tea.

He wondered when she ate for the last time. Would she ever show him? Tell him? The people around them either thought she already ate or didn't pay attention to it. But he and the others knew better.

In the distance from the lobby, Tae could hear a child laughing while yelling something to their parent over the sound of the quiet business chatter of the staff and guests. The kid sounded so carefree. It made Taehyung feel a little jealous. Ever since their big break, globally, it has been impossible - or at least near impossible - for him to be that carefree.

He couldn't even walk Yeontan in the park without security, stroll around the city center or go to see their GangnamDol on K-Star road whenever he wanted. 'But if my life wouldn't be like this, then I would not have found Ella. Or it would have at least taken longer than it has now,' thought he as Taehyung shifted his hand to lace fingers with Ella, 'I think I'm starting to understand what Jimin said earlier. Something special is connecting us, even if we weren't soulmates.'

"I do think you should tell him. He deserves to know," said Yoongi-hyung before a mini smile graced his lips, "You look happy, Tae. Ever since meeting her."

"I am," was all he answered. He saw the eyes of his mates across him get bigger as if they saw something unbelievable happening, but what? When Taehyung shifted his gaze to Jin, Hoseok, and Namjoon at his side of the table, looking over his right shoulder, he understood what caused their reaction.

A faint golden glow was shining right through his jacket, indicating their soulmate bond. For him, it was part of his life now, but his friends saw it for the first time. Just like the pair this morning, they had never seen it in before.

'Maybe the glowing really started after we had sex?' thought Taehyung as his eyes went to Namjoon, who said, "That is going to get some getting used to."

He used his hands to slightly cover his eyes at the strength of the golden light emitting from their shoulders. Because Taehyung saw his eyes shifting between him and Ella, just as he wanted to look at his girlfriend, Hobi-hyung got his attention, "Do you have any control over this? People are starting to look in our way."

Taehyung looked around the room. He saw that the remaining guests in the restaurant, as well as the staff, were looking at their table. Well, that is something new. Looking at them for light shining from his shoulder instead of recognizing him from who he is.

"I don't think we can influence it, but when I tell my uncle, we can go and look up more information about it. The best idea might be to explain what is going on, but people might have difficulty understanding it," said Ella thoughtfully. Her face seemed determined when he looked at her. She really wanted to find out more about this.

Taehyung gave a squeeze in her hand that he was still holding, and she understood what he tried to say to her, 'You look sexy when you're determined to get to the bottom of something, but don't overwork yourself.'

Ella's eyes shot to him as her face became a little red, but showed him a thankful smile, 'I'll be okay. After all, I'm not going to do this on my own. Uncle Vince will help me.'

"Oookay, can you stop whatever you're doing? It is giving me the chills."

Before the pair could answer, Jin shushed the complaining Hoseok, "Hobi, you're going to have to get used to it. It is part of Taehyung's life now. Therefore it also becomes a part of our life."

With that, Jin stood up and asked, "Does anyone want to come along with me to the shopping center?"

Hobi and Jimin stood up and joined him, while Yoongi, Jung Kook, and Joon said that they had other plans for today. Jin's gaze shifted to the lovers.

"Sorry, we are going to do some private sightseeing," said Taehyung as he stood up and pulled Ella into a side-hug, "But have fun!"

"Shall we eat dinner together?" asked Namjoon. Everyone gave an affirmative to him.

——————————————————

Taehyung and Ella scrolled along the streets of Riyadh on their sightseeing tour. Their walk had been peaceful after they left the hotel via a side entrance to avoid the crowd of people wanting to see a glimpse of them.

To avoid being spotted, both of them were wearing a cap on their heads. The sunny weather was working in their favor as they could wear a pair of sunglasses to hide their eyes as well. Taehyung was used to attention even when he was on the streets for personal business, but he could see that Ella was a little tense. Even in a disguise that hid who she was very well.

'What can I do to ease her tension?' thought Tae as they passed a little café decorated with a sign that said 'Happarie Tet-a-tet.' The board made him stop in his tracks and also Ella, as they were walking hand in hand.

"What is it, Tae?"

"Are you thirsty?" asked Taehyung in return, a boxy smile on his lips as he pointed to the café. It was further away from the main street where they were walking. His eyes met Ella's face, who seemed more relaxed than before. Before he even got an answer, Taehyung dragged her to the café cause he knew it was what she needed right now.

"Don't we need to let your bodyguards know where we're going?"

"You don't need to worry about them. Those men need to be able to follow us in large crowds. They are watching us like hawks," said Taehyung as he opened the door for her, "Technically, they are also your bodyguards now. All members of the security team have been since we started dating. Even your uncle, who is now the others that went to the shopping center."

Ella looked at him in disbelief before she realized why she was so tense in the first place, making his statement very solid. Once the door closed, a bell was ringed, indicating to the owner that somebody had entered. Taehyung looked around the café. It had a vintage yet unique style.

All of the store's pieces of furniture are wood-carved. Even the chairs looked handmade, which gave the atmosphere a warm and loving feeling. The decoration was the finishing touch. It gave a unique feel to the café. All tables had four different chairs, and none of the sets matched each other. The table blades had different shapes as well. Some were straight like any other wooden table, yet others had a form original to them.

One table blade looked like it just came from the tree and screwed onto its footing. A few were in specific shapes, like cloud form, circles, and even a heart. Taehyung's gaze shifted to the menu. He didn't know if it was the entire menu, but it was on a chalkboard above the counter.

"Tae, you picked out a good place to have a rest," came from his soulmate, who smiled from ear to ear. The pair reached a table in the middle of the café. Aside from them, there was only an elderly couple sipping on their coffee while making small talk and a young adult reading a book at the window.

After taking out Ella's chair for her, he took his seat himself. They looked at the menu on the chalkboard, even though they had one in the stand on their table. A few minutes later, an employee came up to them.

"Have you been able to make your choice?" asked an elderly woman in Arabic.

"I'm sorry. We don't speak Arabic," answered Taehyung, showing off his improved English. Ella shook her head with a smile on her face. 'Show off.' That is what he clearly understood from his shoulder.

"Oh, foreigners. What can I get you?"

"I'd like a latte macchiato. What about you, Tae?"

"Tea with sugar, please."

The woman said they would get their order shortly after writing down their order. He watched the lady walk back to the kitchen as she gave their order to the staff.

"So, what were your plans when you wanted to go on this spontaneous sightseeing trip?"

The honey-sounding syllables, formed by his soulmate, brought his attention back. Ella looked at him with curiosity.

'Is she trying to read my mind, or could our bond be sharing secrets?' thought Taehyung as he saw her pupils enlarge slightly. Her gaze focused on him. She followed every move, from his gulping to the awkward scratch on the back of his head.

'He looks so delicious. Maybe if I ask him, he will let me taste his blood? Argh, why do you have to keep tempting me? Or is our bond enhancing what I felt when we first met and still feel now?'

"Am I that tempting to you?"

Tae saw her blink a few times. Then she became red. He folded his arms on top of the table and laid his head on it. He grinned at her blushing face, "I love that look on your face."

"Oh, stop it," said Ella as she tried to give him a light push on the top of his head. However, a waiter bringing their drinks interrupted her movement.

Tae snickered in his hands as he got up to make room for the waiter to place their order on the table. Ella had become even redder.

Judging by how she reacted to him, Taehyung guessed that she knew that he got information about her thoughts. He would have enjoyed it if she denied or fought back. On the other side, he appreciated her honesty.

After all, his parents always taught him that honesty and trust are the foundations that build a good relationship. Ella has shown him that by telling the truth about who she is and trusting him with it. Well, aside from the mind compulsion to keep the secret when he is with other people.

A waving hand in front of his eyes brought him back to Earth. When he looked at his girl, she shook her head, smiling.

"Where have you been?" Ella asked as she found his eyes. Taehyung scratched his head as he grinned awkwardly, "Sorry, I had something on my mind."

"I guessed as much."

"Did you say something?"

"I said that you never answered my question on what your plans were when you wanted to go on this sightseeing trip."

"I was thinking either the King Abdulaziz Historical Centre, which is a museum I have wanted to visit, or King Abdullah Park," said Taehyung as he took a sip of his tea.

"Both sound interesting. Maybe we can do both? I mean, we have enough time." Ella said as she put her coffee down.

Taehyung looked at his watch. Local time 13.20. She is right. His boxy smile graced his lips, "Why not?"

——————————————————

"Look, a fountain!" exclaimed Ella, excitedly as she dragged him to it.

Taehyung smiled at her fondly as he let her take him to it. They spend a few hours at the museum, and now they had finally reached the park.

Ella had discussed with him why certain pieces were underrated, while she asked for his opinion on some of her favorite artworks.

Taehyung learned through that visit that she was not only an experienced artist herself but also extremely knowledgeable on art. Ella had told him that her father taught her all that she knew of it.

'Now that I'm thinking about it, she does have a lot of art books in her room at her uncle's,' thought Tae as he looked at his girl leaning over the edge of the fountain, smile evident on her lips, 'I'm sure that I have also seen some of them laying around my place.'

Taehyung gave her a back hug, caging her in his arms, "Enjoying yourself?"

Ella's sweet laugh filled his ears as she answered, "Yes. I have had a wonderful time today!"

"I'm glad," said Taehyung as he rested his head on her right shoulder, "We rarely get to spend time together like this. There is always somebody that interrupts us, or I have a gem-packed schedule."

He felt Ella hum in agreement against his chest, "It is part of your job. That is why we should treasure moments like these. Before we know it, we are older, and BTS might have parted ways to start their own families."

Taehyung doesn't want to think about stopping BTS just yet, but he also knows that she is right. They all still have to serve their mandatory military service, and all of them are not getting any younger. At some point, they probably will have to put a dot behind the BTS career and continue as solo artists or redirect their career as BTS to something they can still do when they are in the forties.

He turned Ella around and looked into her eyes. At this moment, everything felt right. The easy-going environment, the sun setting in the distance, and the sound of moving water due to the fountain. Just the two of them, aside from the bodyguards that keep their distance, but are there to protect Ella and him in case something happens. Ella's eyes seemed to be sparkling, and the familiar pull was on them again.

Slowly, Taehyung leaned in and captured his girl's lips in a kiss. Slow, but precise. He was trying to tell her that no matter what would happen in the future, they will still be together. Not only because of their glowing shoulders, which Tae was certain off that he could feel. His soulmate-mark, which mistook for a birthmark all those years, started to sting a little. All previous times he sensed it, Taehyung didn't know what it was, but now it seems to be connected to the unbreakable bond he shares with Ella.

Taehyung also believed that they would still be together in the future. He can be himself around her. He knows that he can tell her anything if he needed to. Their lips moved over one another and turned into a game of teasing. When Ella tugged his bottom-lip and tried to pull away, he chased after her. Taehyung tugged her lip before pushing his tongue in.

'Her tongue moves so expertly. It's hard to believe that a few months back, Ella felt insecure when we kissed. Now she tries to take control and initiates kisses,' thought Taehyung as he fought her for dominance. His lungs started to burn for air, but he ignored it. Kissing Ella was just too addicting. Ella seemed to notice that Tae needed air and pulled away. This time she stopped him from chasing her lips.

"You need to breathe," said she in between pants herself. She rested her head against his and looked into his dark eyes. A golden glow illuminated her frame. It made her look even more perfect than that she already is. Taehyung let out a sigh as he pulled her against him, "I don't want to go back yet."

"We have to at some point."

Frustrated, Taehyung answered, "I know, but that doesn't mean that we can't walk back slowly."

Tae took Ella's hand and started tugging her toward the hotel. A boxy grin around his lips as he mischievously said, "As long as we're back by 23.00, it should be fine. We don't have to get up until 10.00 tomorrow, and we already packed most of our luggage."

He saw her shake her head as she couldn't believe his reasoning for spending even more time together. The shopping team had called them when they were halfway through the museum, telling them that they were on the way back to the hotel. In return, they informed them that they would need a little longer. That was three hours ago. Taehyung guessed that the others didn't wait for them with dinner.

"You're so clingy. How do the others tolerate this every day?"

"That is something they accepted over time," said Taehyung while taking Ella into a side hug.

——————————————————

Taehyung put his toothbrush back into his toiletry bag and fixed his hair with his hands. When he was satisfied, Tae went back to the main room. His eyes glided to the bed when Ella was already sleeping. She didn't even have time to close the curtains. He suspected that she passed out as soon as she laid down.

He walked over to the window, taking in Riyadh night-time one more time before closing the curtains. A smile graced his lips as he pulled up the sheets to join his girl in bed and saw that she was sleeping while wearing his shirt. It made his heart beat a little faster, and he felt butterflies in his stomach. Ella felt comfortable enough to claim one of his shirts as her own for the night. Aside from his hyungs, no-one does that. Not even past one night stands or flings.

Ella turned around and snuggled into his chest when he laid down next to her. It made his heart and stomach feel even more. Slightly, it also boosted his ego cause he knows that the others don't have someone that clings this close to them every night.

Everything was perfect, aside from the soft moans he could hear from the room next door. Taehyung doesn't remember whether it was Jung Kook's or Jimin's room, but it boosted his feeling of wholeness even more. He doesn't have to jerk himself of anymore every time he was hard. Now he could ask Ella for help.

He turned slightly onto his side and pulled Ella into a hug while closing his eyes. Slowly he drifted off to dreamland, and a smile evident on his lips.

Part 14 You won’t get any sleep tonight (18+)

Masterlist

Taehyung, I'm not the girl you think I am?

A/N - There is mature (18+) content up ahead. If you don't like that sort of stuff or are younger than 18 years old, then I advise you to skip the part between these sentences -> They held each other's gaze for a few seconds. - The only sounds in the room now were heavy breaths as they tried to regain their normal rhythms. You have been warned, so don't blame me.

Ella

A pair of arms hugged Ella as she was brushing her hair. She tore her eyes away from the mirror. She looked up to Taehyung, who wrapped her safely in his arms, smiling at her.

"What?"

"Nothing."

She gave him a knowing look as she said, "Your mouth and mind say completely different things. Your mind says, perfectly, how glad you are that I told you what I am, but that you still have questions."

"Okay, that is kinda creepy, but also kinda cool," said Taehyung as Ella put away her brush and took his hand, dragging him to the bed.

She walked backward as she kept her attention on the most beautiful thing that ever came into her life who opened his mouth, "Your ability to read minds is freaking me out, but correct. I do still have questions."

"Are it the same questions that Jin and J-Hope have already asked? If so, you know my answer by now," said Ella seriously as her legs hit the bed, making her fall onto the bed and taking Taehyung down with her as she still held his hand. He managed to hold himself up by his arms as he gazed into her eyes. She saw him still holding that loving glance in his eyes. The glance that she came to love ever since he confessed his love to her.

Taehyung let out an amused chuckle, "You might be a hybrid, but you're still a clumsy girl. My clumsy girl." He gave her a quick yet full kiss on the lips. It was so fast that any other girl would miss the emotion in it, but Ella registered it flawlessly. That sole kiss was so full of love despite being so quick. Her face flushed bright pink, and she looked away. Above her, Taehyung let out another chuckle as he sat down on her left side.

Ella let out an offended cough gaining his attention, "I thought you had questions."

"Oh, right," said Taehyung as she looked him while he was searching for words to form his question correctly, "That mind-reading thing...Have you done that before?"

Ella thought deep as she tried to recall how many times she had done it before, "I've done it before, in the past, but the only one that comes to mind is this morning...when Jung Kook discovered that I am what I am."

She saw his face morph in surprise, "This morning?"

"That's why you had that talk with him. You explained it to him earlier than to us. Then to me," said Tae as the realization hit him, and looked hurt.

"I might not have explained it at all."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean that I actually took him aside to compel him to forget what he saw this morning," she said truthfully, as she saw the questions form on his face, "I almost had done so, but the guilt I felt as I watched him in that state. The guilt that meant that I would take his choice away from him. I couldn't handle it, so I chose to tell the truth, risking what I risked an hour ago as well."

"You risked losing us as friends," said Taehyung as if he had read her mind, "Risked losing me."

She nodded as he was right, but at the same time, that feeling in her shoulder came back. It still surprised her every time that she felt it, but Ella has begun to see some kind of pattern. The electric feeling in her shoulder, whether it was soothing or aching, it was always around Taehyung. Since the very first day that they met. Something her mother said to her at the age of 15 came to mind.

"I know that you don't believe in soulmates, but I'm certain that you will meet someone that makes you feel at home every time that you're together with him. Just like I have with your father. Just let your heart guide you. At some point, you will meet the one you were destined to be with. Your soulmate."

The tears welled up in her eyes partly cause of how she felt when she thought about losing Taehyung, but also that soulmates might be a real thing as she thought about her mother's words, 'I'm starting to think that you might be right, mom.' Ella couldn't concentrate on that feeling for long as she could feel his gaze upon her. It was intense and pressuring. Soon she felt Tae grabbing both her cheeks, making her look in his direction.

"You will never lose me," said he with that intense look on his face while wiping away a tear that rolled down her left cheek, "I love you too much."

"That reminds me," Tae let go of her face as she saw him realizing something, "Does that mean that if Jung Kook never discovered it that you would have never told me?"

He looked at her with a curious glance in his eyes that caused her to gulp.

"I don't know. The thought was never really on my mind. I never had to tell any human before as it was not necessary," said Ella looking away with a blush on her face while mumbling, "Before meeting VAV and, well, BTS, I never had any human friends before."

Taehyung's right arm draped over her shoulder and pulled her in, "Well, you do now, so I'm exhilarated that you did tell us. Even if Jung Kook discovering the truth set it in motion. It took a lot of courage to tell us."

A few seconds passed in a comfortable silence as Tae suddenly wondered, "Will you tell the boys of VAV?"

"Uhm," wondered Ella as she thought deeply about it, "Only the future will tell. I don't want to rush this on to them."

She heard him hum in confirmation as he placed a kiss on her shoulder, "Then I won't pressure you to tell them. You can take your time. I'm sure that the other boys will also do the same, especially after they saw how much it hurt you to talk about it."

Ella felt a smile creep onto her face at his comforting words. She closed her eyes as she felt completely at peace. Glad that she didn't have to hide her true self from his anymore. Although they were right that they might need some getting used to. 'I mean, what would they think if one of them walked in on me drinking from a blood bag or somebody's neck?' said the vampire voice in her head.

She didn't have time for a discussion with that voice as Taehyung's sudden voice shook her up from her thoughts, "You mentioned that your mother believed that your father, Nik, right...," he looked at Ella, who nodded her head in confirmation, "and she were soulmates."

"Yes, she mentioned it sometimes when I asked them how they met."

"What's your opinion about it?"

"About what she thought or soulmates in general?"

"Soulmates in general."

Ella mused for a little while debating with the voices in her head on the topic. When she found an answer that she was satisfied with, she voiced it out loud, "I don't really know, to be honest. I've never met anybody who truly was soulmates with somebody nor experienced it myself. On top of that, science hasn't proved that it's real, but who knows, maybe it is. Although I must admit that I have been feeling something when I'm around you since the day we met. So my mother might have been right in her assumptions."

Taehyung hummed at her answer. It sounded acknowledging and surprised at the same time as if he had not thought that she would say what she said. She looked at him, "How about you?"

"You're right to say that it has not been proven, but there are a lot of articles discussing the topic. I got intrigued by it and read many of those articles. So, I dare to say that after reading about it and knowing what your mother told you, I think I have."

He looked her directly in the eye with a look that made her breath hitch in her throat. It held lust, desire, truth, and love all at the same time. She felt herself get hot as he spoke his next words, "With you. Just like you said, around you, I have been feeling things. Unexplainable feelings that seem so close that what all the articles say about soulmates."

Her face must have shown some confusion, or perhaps surprise, as he chuckled, "Just think back to when we first met. Or when we confessed our love for each other. Our first kiss."

She saw him smirk as her face got red, making her remember those memories. Now that she was thinking about it. Their meeting felt the same as how her mother explained her parents' meeting to her. The strong pull between them. Getting curious about his facial features. Being pulled in by his voice. Falling in love in a matter of hours. The electricity she felt when his lips molded with hers for the first time and left completely breathless afterward.

"You are thinking about it. I can tell you do because I do too. The pull I felt when I only saw your back. Increasing by tenfold when I looked in your eyes for the first time. Thinking about being with you when we were rushed into the car that day," said Taehyung as he pulled her closer while leaning in himself with every word he spoke, "The electricity I felt when I kissed you to confess how I felt about you. Feeling completely breathless after one kiss. I think, no, I know that we have what your parents had. I think we were made for each other."

"You might be right. It would explain why you're still so attracted to me after knowing the truth about me," whispered Ella against his lips, waiting for him to close that gap between them. She wanted him to take control of the situation.

The second that Taehyung molded his lips with hers again, they both let out a moan. She missed his lips on hers, and judging by his reaction, so did he. This time, she tried to focus on how the kiss made her feel. Ella let Taehyung take complete control of the situation as she could feel the same electricity as the first time. If not more intense than back then. She gasped as she felt Tae's hands squeezing her butt while pushing her into the mattress.

In turn, Tae took this to his advantage to slide his tongue into her mouth. When their tongues met, Ella melted into the kiss. She felt complete whenever they had physical contact. As if the missing puzzle piece finally had been found and filled the void that was left behind every time they weren't together. How she survived this long without him was a miracle on its own. Perhaps also another thing that amplified the soulmate theory.

Just as she was getting into it, Taehyung pulled away. She whimpered at the loss of his lips and opened her eyes. As Ella met her boyfriend's hot gaze to question him why he stopped, the heat rose to her face as he whispered into her ear, "This kiss proved it, didn't it?"

She saw Tae lift his head to watch her reaction. She nodded as Ella did not trust her voice after being so turned on due to a kiss. He let out a chuckle and leaned over to her other ear, "I want to hear you say it."

He looked up once again with pleading eyes, "Please?"

"Yes," was her reply barely higher than a whisper.

"I couldn't quite catch that."

"I said yes," said Ella louder this time. She felt her face become redder if that was even possible. Placing both of her hands on her face, Ella tried to hide the flush on her cheeks. Due to doing this, Ella missed the loving, yet mischievous smile that grew on the curve of Taehyungs lips.

"Cute," he muttered under his breath. So quiet that even Ella would have trouble deciphering it if she could focus on it. She felt him take both of her wrists and place them above her head. Ella looked away as she was ashamed of how affected she had gotten by just a kiss.

"Jagi, please look at me."

Even though he said please, Ella heard the little demand behind it and turned her head looking into his eyes.

"You don't have to hide your face from me. It's beautiful, no matter how red it is, because I react the same way. Even if it isn't always visible on my face," said Taehyung with a lustful gaze while leaning in for another make-out session.

This time he didn't go easy on her and immediately pushed his tongue into her mouth, going after hers with a high amount of passion. Ella let out a shameful moan when she felt him lick over her canines. Even though they were short, the teeth were hypersensitive. She could feel him smirking at her reaction as he changed his position to deepen the kiss even further.

'I've never reacted like this before. Not even when we had our first kiss. Just how dirty am I, or is it because Taehyung making me this way?'

The thought shot through Ella's mind as they pulled away. A little string of saliva and their heavy breathing was the only indication that they just had a major make-out session. Ella's gaze followed Tae's hands as they traveled down to the edge of her shirt. She placed a hand on his chest that gained her boyfriend's attention.

"You don't want to?"

She let out a giggle as she saw his disappointed gaze, "It's not that I don't want to, but... Maybe we should close the curtains before continuing?"

Taehyung's gaze shot towards the windows. His eyes met the city lights of Riyadh. Their room was not exactly on one of the lower floors where people could clearly look into the rooms of the hotel, but it isn't that private either.

"Perhaps, you're right," said Tae as he quickly got up to close the curtains giving her some time to catch her breath and mentally prepare for what's to come. Ella heard a piece of fabric fall to the ground. Her eyes found the item of clothing that was the cause of the sound. It laid next to curtains. However, Taehyung was already at the end of the bed. Her eyes traveled to him. She gulped, hard, as her eyes fell onto her boyfriend. He joined her on the mattress again, shirtless, crawling over her until their faces were aligned with each other.

If you don't like sex scenes or are below 18 stop here and continue at the next bold text.

They held each other's gaze for a few seconds. The room was so silent that you could only hear the ticking of the wall clock and their soft breathing. Ella took in this, for her, new sight, but didn't dare to lift her hands to touch it. She saw that Tae didn't want to force her to touch him and tried to ease her nerves by trailing open-mouthed kisses on both sides of her neck, starting on the left side.

Tae smirked against her neck as he found the place that made her let out another shameful moan. Ella felt him attack the spot that made her react like that. Kissing, biting, sucking, licking, and everything in between to make her feel good. If he only knew what was only her mind as she grabbed onto the sheets. Ella held onto them with her dear life.

"Tae," said Ella in a quiet voice, before letting out another moan as he bit the same place again.

She felt him let out a 'hm' against the skin on the right side of her neck to let her know that he heard her.

"Tae," said Ella, more hesitant this time, making him look up at her, "I've never done this before."

She looked at him through half-lidded eyes. Cheeks completely red, panting softly, as she had a chance to calm down a little. A loving smile crept up on her boyfriend's face, "Ah, why are you so incredibly cute, but so sexy at the same time?"

Ella's eyes shot open in shock at his comment. She tried to hide her face again in embarrassment, but she didn't even get close to her face as Tae pressed them down into the mattress, "Don't worry your pretty head about it. I have, and I'll teach you all that you need to know."

Tae didn't give Ella any time to think about with who, when he had his first time, and how many times he had done it since then as he leaned into her left ear, "I've seen the way you look at me. Haven't your parents ever thought you that staring is rude?"

He shifted over to her other ear, "If you want it, then just take it."

Ella slowly traveled her hands from where they had held on to the sheets to his chest. She was so close to touching him but closed her hands hesitantly.

'I don't want to be too greedy, but I do want to feel it. It looks so hard, yet soft at the same time,' crossed Ella's mind as she heard a mumbled 'adorable' from her boyfriend's mouth before feeling his hands on her. Meeting his gaze, Taehyung gave her a small nod as if saying it's okay before he placed their combined hands on his chest.

She was so absorbed in feeling every line, hill, and valley of his chest that Ella missed the grin on his face as he watched her reaction to feeling a male chest like this for the first time. Ella felt a presence next to her left ear and waited for Tae to say something, but felt something wet go along her ear shell. The sensation caused her to let out another moan.

Taehyung's lust-filled whisper caused Ella to shiver in anticipation as it was so close to her ear, "Sensitive ears, I see."

She felt him smirk against her ear as he continued his molestation of her ear. Ella placed a hand over her mouth to silence her reaction to Tae's ear licking. The licking that moved from her ear shell to the inside of her ears. That sensation caused an even bigger response.

"Don't," said Taehyung taking her hand and put it above her head when he had noticed that she tried to silence herself, "I want to hear all of your cute reactions."

He moved back into his hovering position over her as she saw him watch her reaction closely. Ella bit her lip as she looked away, ashamed of her reaction. She heard him chuckle as her cheeks probably had flushed even more. Feeling Tae place his right hand over her left one, which was still on his chest, Ella looked up.

"You're not the only one who is shamefully turned on by this situation," said Taehyung in a lustfully strained voice and started guiding her hand down. Down his chest, across his bellybutton to the top of his sweatpants. The moment he let her hand rest on something large and warm, her eyes shot wide open in a state of panic for the unknown, looking everywhere but there were her left hand was.

Ella tried to take her hand back away as she knew very well what her hand had been placed on. However, she felt Taehyung's grip tighten on top of hers, causing her to look at him.

"I know," started he out as their gazes met each other again, "I know, that it might seem scary and unreal now. Quite frankly, my reaction wasn't much different when I had my first time. However, the sooner that you get used to this. To feeling my excitement, the easier it will be when the moment is truly there."

His gaze was serious and dedicated. That look gave Ella the little encouragement she needed. She nodded and finally looked down. Slowly she moved her hand over the warm bulge. Up and down in a steady rhythm. When Taehyung felt her move her hand slowly over his clothed half-erect penis, he let out a moan.

Ella's flashed up to his face. She saw that his cheeks were beginning to flush. His eyes were closed, and his breathing became shallow and heightened. Soft moans fell over his lips. His arms started shaking. They struggled to keep him up in his hovering position. She didn't know what she was doing, but it was making him feel good. If it was not by the signs on his face, then it was by the fast-growing hardness in her boyfriend's pants.

"A-ah," fell out of his lips as he opened his eyes again, meeting her focused ones, "It, ah, it feels so good. Ah!"

Her cheeks flushed at his words, 'Okay, apparently I'm doing something good.' She was not given much time to linger on her thoughts. Ella felt the fingers of her boyfriend's right hand traveled to the bottom of her, technically, his oversized pajama-shirt. She stopped her movements over Tae's full erection as his fingers ghosted over her skin.

"It's not fair when I'm the only one who's half-naked in this situation," said Taehyung with the arousal visible on his face, "May I?"

After a short nod, she felt his push up her shirt up and over her shoulders, with some help of Ella lifting her arms, as she had given him a small, yet hesitant nod.

"Beautiful," muttered her lover as she lay there half-naked with an undeniable flush on her face and hair spread out in a fan form. Ella averted her eyes from his gaze as it traveled down to her breasts. Open to the world in their full glory as she didn't expect to be undressed tonight. In her opinion, they're not perfect or beautiful at all, but he seemed to think otherwise as he took them in thoroughly.

"I love how soft they look. Oh, there even is a little birthmark on your left one. Right here," said Taehyung while he placed a soft kiss on the mole. It was located a little to the left side of her right nipple. When their eyes met, he showed her his boxy grin before directing his attention back to what he was doing.

Instead of grabbing or squeezing them like all the men in the erotica and sexual fanfictions had done, Taehyund decided to give her collarbones some attention. He switched between biting, licking, and kissing both sides until the skin turned purple into hickeys that would be visible for some days. Maybe even weeks by the looks of it. Slowly his ministrations traveled downward to her breast and nipples. The nipples that stood proudly erect almost in the center of her breasts.

Her soft whimpers turned into a loud moan when Taehyung took her left nipple into his mouth. She placed a hand of her mouth to silence her arousal after she felt Tae bit it. The reaction was more intense than Ella expected it to be. He pulled back from her left breast and started moving to the other while trailing kisses on the skin in between. Before he dived into giving her right nipple the same treatment, his eyes searched hers. When he caught them, he murmured, "Don't hide your moans from me. I want to hear how good I make you feel."

"W-what, ahh," started Ella weakly as she felt him squeeze her breasts for the first time that evening. Taehyung grabbed her hand that covered her mouth and placed it next to her head. He looked her directly in the eyes as he hovered above her putting emphasized every word of his sentence, "I. Don't. Care. About. What. Other. People. Hear."

"During my years of touring around the world, I have been laying awake a night due to hearing the sex of other people, whether they were strangers or my own best mates. Tonight, I want to return the favor," said Tae as she saw him smirk while traveling down and finally gave her right nipple the same attention as her left one. This time Ella decided to give her boyfriend what he wished for and let her voice be as loud as it wanted to be.

'I hope that uncle Vince is sleeping. He will give me a never-ending lecture about making sure that I am ready. You can only lose your virginity once. Are you sure that he is the right one? Blah, blah, blah,' thought Ella as she finally could catch her breath again and watched Tae trail his kisses even lower. He stopped just above the waistband of her pajama shorts. He looked up to her, and their eyes met.

"As hard as I find it to stop myself, I will. I don't want to force this on you if you don't feel ready yet," said Taehyung in an earnest voice while placing another kiss on her belly button. Ella laid there silent for a few seconds as she thought about it responding, "I am ready. I want to do this with you. Now more than ever before."

She saw his face lit up like he does whenever he sees her again after being away for a while. Probably another non-proven, but very likely, soulmate sign. He came up to kiss her on her lips, quickly, as he seemed eager to see his girlfriend naked for the first time since they became a couple. Tae slowly tugged her shorts down her legs. His fingers trailed the skin below her shorts until they came off, and he could finally throw it away. In a flash, Ella saw it land perfectly on their shirts that were on the right side of the bed near the curtains.

She somewhat expected him to take her panties off after that. Instead, he took off the sweatpants he was wearing and threw it on the growing pile of clothes by the curtains. Ella tried to resist the urge to look at the obvious erection in his boxers. However, Taehyung now started on her panties, making her eyes shoot downward. She was a little too late as he already threw them away.

"Ah, ah, ah," said Taehyung as he noticed her hands trying to cover up her exposed lower region, "No hiding. Did you forget what I said? You're beautiful. Every inch of you is."

Her eyes screamed that she was nervous, and she followed Tae's form. He walked over to his suitcase and grabbed a package out of it. When he placed it on the nightstand to take his boxer off, Ella got even more nervous if that was possible. Her heart was racing through her chest. Her eyes were so large that it looked like they would fall out any second. She fixated her glance on the pack placed on the nightstand. The package was a box of condoms.

"I wasn't planning to have sex with you today," heard Ella coming from Taehyung. She tore her look away from the condoms to her boyfriend, who had crawled back onto the bed. He looked slightly concerned by her reaction, so he continued, "I started keeping a box with me since we started dating. Just to make sure that I would have protection with me for when we would have our first time. You understand?"

All Ella did was nod. She could see the logic in that and didn't know where to look anymore aside from his face. She was too nervous. Her eyes didn't even dare to take in his completely naked body. Taehyung happily smiled when she understood him, but it quickly changed in a mischievous smirk as he noticed her nervousness. Ella looked a little confused due to his sudden change. The moan came sooner that then realization as she felt her boyfriend's fingers trace in between the folds of her vagina.

"You are so wet already. I haven't even done anything major yet," whispered Tae in her left ear, making her shiver while speeding up his tracing, "I was going to go easy on, but now I changed my mind. You won't get any sleep tonight."

The thought alone made Ella moan again. A bold one for her doing in this situation came into her mind. She started lifting her hand until it reached out for Tae's penis. Before she could reach it, Tae spoke up, "You don't have to. Tonight is about you."

Ella placed her hands firmly on his chest, catching him off-guard and stopped his teasing. She saw him gulp when he met her gaze. Probably unsure of why the gesture meant. Taehyung visibly relaxed when he met the loving look on her face, "I want to. We should both feel good until I'm ready for...you know...sex. I, at least, know that I have to be prepared until you can go in there somewhat easy."

He was utterly speechless, but smiled at her caring smile, "You're right. If you want too, then I won't stop you."

At his words, Ella pushed him up with too much force in the blink of an eye, causing him to steady himself with his hand to remain in a sitting position. Ella sat up as well and apologized, "Sorry, I got a little excited there and forgot about the strength difference."

Taehyung let out a snicker as she rambled on about her strength and decided to silence her with a kiss. Their lips molded together and turned into a make-out scene until Tae pulled back, gasping for air, but continued his teasing around her vagina. His left hand was toying with her clit while his right hand was playing between her folds. Pinching, rubbing, and dragging. All to make her wetter and ready for when they would become one. Ella let out small whimpers at the feeling of his fingers and reached out for his erection. She smiled at Taehyung's reaction when she touched his bare penis for the first time.

"Aah, It feels so much better than when I do it with my own hands," said Taehyung's aroused voice, "Don't squeeze too hard."

She followed his advice and loosened her grip in his erection.

"Ahh, just like that and now slowly move your hand."

She intensely watched his face as he let out small moans while continuing the movement of his fingers. He intensified his ministrations to distract her from the feeling of his ring finger that he slowly pushed inside. Taehyung slightly pinched her clit as he slipped the last part of his finger in, earning a moan in response.

Ella's mind was becoming foggy from the pleasure that she is feeling. It increased due to his finger wiggling around in her most intimate part. However, she could still read his mind flawlessly. She flushed from the thought on his mind, 'She is so tight. It's going to take a little more time than I thought to loosen her up, but it will feel so good to become one with her for the first time.'

Anyone that would their room would only able to hear strangled breathing and soft moans. Inside, however, the sounds of slipperiness, kissing, licking, and biting echoed against the walls. Taehyung had loosened her up quite nicely by now, and Ella's hand movements had made him so hard it began to become red from the pressure of holding back his release.

Gasping for air, they pulled apart and spoke up at the same time, "Jagi?" At hearing their lover, they locked eyes after closing them for a few seconds and laughed.

"After you," said Tae, a smirk on his face as pushed in his third finger, increasing the speed at which he was moving them around. Ella let out a loud moan at the new sensation, "T-Tae, I feel strange. I think so-something is coming. I-I think I'm going to cum."

"You should just let go if you are. I'm going to cum as well. Let's climax together."

She felt Taehyung speed up his movements even more, if that was possible, and followed his example. Her hand sped up as fast as her muscles allowed it to move. She tensed up the bubble in her abdomen finally exploded. Ella let it all go when her orgasm hit her. All of the tension turned into jelly as she came down from her high. As a result, Ella collapsed on his shoulder as his movements slowed down, helping her through the last waves of her orgasm while Ella tried to keep her hand moving. She felt him become a little harder before he came himself, shooting all of his sperm on the sheets behind her.

Taehyung's hands found her cheeks and pulled her in for a kiss as they both calmed down for their orgasms. She could still feel her wetness on his fingers, perhaps even slightly on his lips. During their kiss, Tae moved the dirtied sheets out of the way to push her into the soft mattress. When she hit the cushions, Ella felt Taehyung place his entire body on her. Every inch of his skin that could touch a part of her's was touching. She let out a moan in his mouth when he started grinding his penis over her vagina to become entirely erect again.

Taehyung slowly pulled away and slid off her body. Ella whimpered at the loss of her boyfriend's presence and opened her eyes for an answer. She saw Tae reach over to the box of condoms and pulled one out. He looked at what he was doing for a few seconds until the condom was correctly put on.

"Sorry for the wait," said Tae as he gave her a quick peck on the lips, "I'm going to put it in, okay?"

Ella gave him a small nod as she didn't trust her voice at this moment anymore. He lovingly rubbed his thumb over her left cheek as she braced herself for the pain that she expected to feel. Ella let out the loudest moan that any people awake on their floor could have heard this evening and felt Tae quickly kiss her to silence her. When she quieted down, he pulled away and searched for her eyes.

"Does it hurt?" asked Tae as he looked concerned at her. She shook her head as it only felt pleasurable, "Let me know if I need to stop." Slowly, but steadily he pushed in the remaining part of his entire length. "Can you feel it? I'm now entirely in you. You're so goddamn tight."

He remained in that position for a few minutes until Ella gave him a nod to let him know that it's okay to move. She let out small whimpers, sometimes a louder moan, when he started moving. She felt him pull out until only the head was inside of her and then thrust harder back into her. Every time he went a little harder and faster until he created a rhythm that both of them found enjoyable. She saw him smirk as he hit a place that made her moan slightly louder than before, "So that is where you have been hiding your sensitive spot."

"I want to see that reaction again," said Tae as he took in her face when he started hitting that place with his thrusts repeatedly. She felt that she was reached her second orgasm of the night and reached out for her lover, who placed her left leg over his shoulder to change the angle of his thrusts. His eyes met hers as he saw her reaching out for him and pulled up an eyebrow.

"Kiss me. I want to kiss you when I'm going to cum again."

That was all she needed to say for her to get him moving into action. He removed her leg from his shoulder and laid down on her chest, halting his movements, "I'm going to cum soon as well. Let's cum together again."

He licked her bottom lips before pushing his tongue in to show 'his dominance' over her. Taehyung would probably never be able to be the most dominant as he hasn't seen her pride as a werewolf yet. Nevertheless, their tongues met in different ways as Tae picked up his thrusts again in a faster rhythm, chasing after their needed release.

After a few powerful thrusts, both of them came. Ella's second orgasm hit her harder than the first. Her eyes met Taehyung's face as he looked mesmerized. Still going strong to reach his climax. In a strangled voice he said, "You look so good when you're trembling like that. Always remember that it was me who made you feel like this."

He gave a strong thrust, "It was me whose name you screamed." Another thrust. "It was me who you chose to have your first time with."

Thrust.

"It will be me who you will have all other first times with. Proposal. Marriage. Kids. Growing Old. Everything."

Another thrust.

"Don't squeeze me so tight. It will make me come even faster."

Ella's face was crimson as he spoke all of his confessions and let out a giggle. That caused him to look up for the shoulder he had hidden his face in. At seeing his confused face, Ella said, still a little giggly, "Grow old? Did you forget who I am? I think living together for eternity is a more realistic option."

At that, Taehyung lost it and came. Hard and long. She felt his erection become even harder inside her before feeling him release his sperm into the condom. Taehyung collapsed onto her after he finished his orgasm.

Start from here again.

The only sounds in the room now were heavy breaths as they tried to regain their normal rhythms. Taehyung slowly pulled out of her and tied up the used condom before throwing it in the garbage bin. As he turned back to the bed, he said, "An eternity, really?"

Ella let out a sniffle, "We can talk about that when you are ready, but not now. I'm too tired."

"That was amazing, yet tiring," said Ella as Tae collapsed on her right.

"It's definitely amazing."

Ella rolled onto her right side and snuggled closer to Taehyung, laying her head on his chest. She listened to his heartbeat that was slowly regaining its original rhythm, "I'm glad my first time was with you."

She could hear the smile on his face as he responded to her, "I'm glad you let me take your virginity. Up for a second round?"

"Let me think about it as I catch my breath," murmured Ella into his chest.

Her tiredness, however, caught up with her first as she shifted off to dreamland. She faintly felt Tae shift underneath her, probably to look at her, and place a kiss on her hair, "I'll let you off the hook today, but next time you'll make up for that second round."

16.00h - A penthouse somewhere in Spain, Europe

"Sir, I have the information you asked for."

The young man who was sipping on a whiskey enjoying the view turned around and waved his hand at the man urging him to continue.

"The girl, who you said resembled Rose Waters, has been hanging around in Seoul for a short while now. On her first day there, she met," the man looked down on his report to search for the correct name, "Kim Taehyung, also known as V. He is part of that big k-pop band that my sister's daughter is such a big fan of BTS."

"I don't care about him. I want to know about the girl. I might finally have found her again after losing sight of her due to her remaining family members spreading themselves around the world. All this time, I thought she was dead until her aunt Bekha fessed up the secret she was protecting before snapping my neck as I was distracted. However, that doesn't matter. That secret informed me sooner than my men that little miss Young is alive," said the young man gulping his whiskey down in one go.

"Of course, sir. Sorry, sir."

The young man waved his hand again. The other man continued her story, "The girl was caught up in a scandal due to that meeting. She disappeared off the radar for a month. However, she remained close with BTS and especially one of their bodyguards. That Kim Taehyung and her exploded the world again after they announced their relationship. Since then, the girl hasn't left the media much."

The man flipped over his page, "The latest appearance was their arrival in Saudi Arabia where BTS had a concert today. She also has been a trending topic in the interviews the boys had yesterday, and all mentioned the same name."

"Well?" urged the young man impatiently.

"The name in all of these events given to the girl is Ella Young."

The man gave him the report, and the other eagerly flipped through it. He smiled as he saw the picture of the bodyguard after confirming that this Ella Young is the same one as the one from 5 years ago, "The bodyguard that she has been close with is her uncle. Who would've thought that Vince Young became a bodyguard for idols? Well, two birds with one stone."

"It's going to be difficult to take her out. She has constant security since she started dating that idol and has camera's on her everywhere she goes. People are going to be suspicious when she suddenly disappears. Maybe her uncle might be a better first target? However, both of them are traveling much due to the connections to the band."

"We'll see about that with time. We do have to plan it carefully. The best time to do it might be when that band is not touring. First, get me a pen and paper. I'm going to send my favorite new girl a letter since her uncle's address had been included so nicely."

The man hurried out of the room to go grab what the young one asked for. The young man turned to the window and smirked, "I'm coming for you, Ella. Just like your parents, you will meet the same fate, or my name wouldn't be Ethan."

A/N - I'd love some feedback on the sex scene. I didn't intend to write, but my imagination felt that it was right for the continuation of the story. It was my first time writing something as dirty(maybe not the right word) like this.

Part 13 Taehyung, I’m not the girl you think I am

Masterlist

Uncle, who is Ethan?

Ella

When Ella arrived at the dressing room to ready herself for the concert and fetching her ARMY Bomb, an alert got her attention. Her phone gave off a WhatsApp sound. She grabbed her phone and that she was added to a new group chat. The chat was named 'When are we going to meet again' with 7 question marks. She pursed her lips in suspicion when she saw the name having a feeling that one of the VAV members made that chat. At the moment of opening the conversation, Ella saw that her name was mentioned several times in the chat.

After some reading through the messages, she discovered that she was in a chat that included VAV and BTS. Well, at the time, more VAV since BTS was on the stage 'performing' for the VIP fans. The boys of VAV had been asking her questions. How she was doing, what she was doing right now, and when they could meet again, etc.

Ella: I'm doing fine in comparison to the circumstances. Yesterday's arrival at the airport send me into a small panic attack, but I'm all alright now.

Ella: Now I'm waiting in the dressing room for the members to be done with their VIP soundcheck part of the concert, then I can take place in the audience near that section to see the real performance myself. I even got my ARMY Bomb with me. Although I almost damaged it this morning. I think I'm just going to relax until then.

St. Van the Man: We've seen some photos of the arrival you speak off, but if you really when into a panic attack after leaving the camera sight, then you did an outstanding job. The nerves were visible on your face, but you followed Taehyung's lead and stayed true to yourself. That's the most important thing.

Ayno Yoo Know: Relaxing is good after going through that for the first time after becoming a, well, celebrity. Even though it might not feel like you're a celeb, you are. Baron-hyung looked up just now if you are, and sources like Billboard and Melon say you are.

Ziu-piu: Congratulations, Miss Celebrity!!

Ella: Thanks Ziu, but no thanks. I never intended to get famous and don't feel like a celebrity should.

Lou: Ziu says he's sorry if he offended you, but as you can see from the chat topic. The one who made the chat *chough* Baron *chough* wants to know when we can meet up again. Can you give him some sort of information about this?

Ella: At the moment, as he knows, I'm on tour with the boys. So I guess it will be sometime around the end of their concert tour. After the Seoul concerts as well. My uncle wants to keep me close, and I want to support my boyfriend until the end. *Nods confidently* I'm a dedicated girlfriend who comes true to her promises.

Ella: I can't decide on that my own either. It wouldn't be fair to the ones who're on stage now.

ACE: We understand. We'll think of something and let you all know our plan when we've got it. Is that okay?

Ella: Absolutely!

After that, she put her phone on silent, as she knows that they will keep messaging her, and put it away. She shifted her position on the couch that she took place on to interact with VAV and closed her eyes for a little bit. Shaken awake by a hand pressing lightly on her shoulder, woke Ella up from her unintended nap. Blinking a few times against the light and registered the energetic voices in the dressing room.

"Tired?" asked the voice belonging to the person whose hand is on her shoulder. Ella rubbed her eyes and sat up, turning to the source of the question, "Joonie, how was the soundcheck? The new groupchat with VAV tired me out more than I thought. They're not even here and are already as tiring as you all can be, sometimes."

Namjoon let out a chuckle and pulled her on her feet up by the hand she extended to him, "The soundcheck went okay. The fans are hyped up. It's our first time performing in Saudi Arabia, after all."

"Of course, they're hyped up," said an equally hyped J-Hope, "We did not perform in the Middle East since Dubai in 2015, and they've been worried that we're going to cancel due to the human rights abuses going on right now."

"You defended your decision, more than once, during the interviews the other day. You're here for your fans and not as some publicity stunt."

"Ella, I'm glad you think of it that way," said Tae, who swung an arm over her left shoulder, letting it rest there, "However, they're a lot of people who don't think of it that way."

"We've been getting criticized for our decision to play here tonight. Since other artists, like Nicki Minaj, have canceled their performances due to the ongoing problems," said Jimin in a frustrated voice as he let himself fall on the couch where Ella just had been pulled up from.

"Let's not talk about this topic anymore. We've got a performance to get ready for," said Jin in hopes of cheering Jimin up as Jung Kook brought a significant fact to their attention, "Don't forget that Ella will also be watching us live tonight. For. The. First. Time. EVER!"

Jung Kook smiled his famous bunny smile as he emphasized every word from the last part of the sentence.

"Oi Jung Kook," said Yoongi covering his ears, "I get you're excited to show off in front of your best friend, who is also Tae's girl, but please keep the volume down. We can hear you just fine."

"Sorry, Yoongi-hyung, I'll try to keep my voice down next time I'm excited about something."

Ella shook her head at Kook's enthusiasm. Their bond hasn't really changed much since he figured out her secret. The same secret she promised him to tell her boyfriend who pulled her down on the chair, which Taehyung dragged from under the table to sit on. As he secured her safely in his lap, he put his head on her right shoulder, noticing her thoughtful expression. 'How am I going to tell him I am who I am?' thought Ella when she heard the person she was thinking about ask, "A penny for your thoughts."

She shuddered at his sudden husky voice earning a satisfied chuckle from Taehyung. Ella could feel his chest moving behind her as he chuckled. A little displeased, Ella punched him with her right elbow. "Okay, I guess I deserved that one," said Taehyung in a painful voice as multiple sniggers could be heard across the room when they heard him speak.

"You guess?" questioned Ella pulling up an eyebrow while turning her head to look him into the eyes.

"I deserved that one."

"Yes, yes, you did."

"I still would like to know what is on your thoughts, though."

"There is not much on my mind, though. Just wondering about how to start our important talk tonight, more specifically when. I bet you will be tired after you are done, but I made a promise to tell, so I will."

Taehyung rubbed her sides comfortably as he said, "I don't care if I'm tired. We made a promise to each other. So I'll see up to my part of the promise just as much as you do to yours. I'll try my best to stay awake until you're done talking."

Ella leaned into him comfortably as his kind words, and Tae moved his arms to rest around her waist. Something warm exploded around her birthmark, but she missed it due to catching Jung Kook watching them. Kookie stuck up his thumb when he was caught looking, as a show of good fate in the promise Ella made with him. She wanted to give him a thumbs-up back, but Jin's abrupt voice turned the attention in the room to him. Everyone looked in his direction and stopped what they're doing.

"Why do I have over 600 messages in a WhatsApp group chat?"

Ella let out a scoff as she knew, exactly, which group he was talking about, "You can thank the maker of the group chat for that. I had over 300 messages when I saw the chat. We're all joined in a group chat with all the members of VAV. Baron would like all of us to meet up again, but I already said that it would have to wait until after your tour is over."

Jin looked at her with a stoic face, "You have to be kidding."

Ella shook her head as the chat was proof that she was not.

"He saw you a few days before we left and wants to meet up again," stated a suspicious Taehyung from underneath her, "Does he have no-one else to hang out with?"

"Tae, don't be so suspicious," said RM before she could, "The chat clearly states that all of them want to meet up with all of us again. So not just with Ella."

"I'd love to meet up with them again," said Jimin excitedly as he remembered how much fun it was the last time, "I never thought that they would become such good friends as they looked like they were impressed by us the first time we met."

"I think everybody, these days, is impressed by all of you," stated manager Sejin in a 'matter-of-fact' voice as he entered the room, before going over into business, cutting the original conversation off, "Are you all rested up? If so, get a move on. The noonas still have to get your hair, make-up, and outfits done before the show starts in 45 minutes."

Reluctantly the boys stood up and headed towards the working station of the noona's. Ella tried to stand up and let Tae go over to the place he was needed. However, when she tried to get up, his arms tightened around her waist, not wanting to let her go. Ella shot a pleading glance toward Sejin, who was still in the door-opening waiting for Taehyung to go as well.

Sejin let out a sigh, "Taehyung, go now before I have bodyguard Young carry you there like the last time you didn't go willingly."

Ella heard a frustrated sound coming from her boyfriend as he let her go and stood up. She expected him to listen to his manager and go immediately, but instead, he took her hand and interlaced their fingers. She looked from their hands to his face, meeting a pair of pleading eyes.

"Hmpf," sighed Ella giving into his pleading face, "If you let me grab my bag, then I'll come with you. I have to go in that direction anyway before my uncle accompanies me to my seat."

Taehyung looked a little upset, but let her go. She quickly grabbed her bag with ARMY Bomb, a fully charged phone, and a bottle of water. Ella had prepared it before she had gotten the first WhatsApp notification. She put her phone on the charger before her little nap. To ensure it would be full when she needs it during the concert. Ella extended her hand again, and Taehyung laced them once more as soon as his hand found hers. He showed her a boxy smile as she looked at him when he guided, more like dragged, her to the working station.

An unnie quickly whisked him away to a make-up table to get him ready for the performance. Ella watched the members getting ready for the live show. Some were still in make-up like Tae, others were getting dressed or having their hair done while Jin looked to be done first. Ella decided to let him get ready for the performance in his own way and sat on one of the empty make-up chairs. She saw that one of the unnies was cleaning up her equipment already. That unnie was one of the hairstylists. 'She could cut my hair,' thought Ella as she debated to call out to her, 'I just don't know if she has the time or not.'

"I can see the question burning in your head," said Jimin, who took place on her left, "You just have to ask her. I'm sure she would do it."

"How do you know that?"

"Because she is one of the noonas we heard talking about your hair. I'm certain that she was the most excited one. If trust is the issue, don't worry. I trust her and rarely trust anyone with my hair."

"Trust is not what causes the problem."

"Then what is?"

"I just don't want to disturb her so soon before the concert when she needs to be here to get all of you ready."

Jimin looked as if he was about to burst out laughing as Ella answered him truthfully. Instead of doing so, he called out to the noona, who quickly walked over to him. Ella looked embarrassed as Jimin explained the situation and wanted to sink into the ground. However, when she heard that the noona would gladly do it for her, she perked up.

"I don't have time now, but I can make some space in my schedule for tomorrow before we have to go back to South-Korea."

"You can? I don't want to be a burden."

"Of course, miss Young. You're not a burden at all. I would be honored if you let me cut your hair and do whatever you want to get done with it. All the hairstylists are jealous of your hair. It looks so soft and silky. On top of that, it's a natural hair color we don't see here often. And I get to be the first one of us to touch it," said the hairstylist as she gestured to her black hair.

"See Ella? Nothing to it. You just had to ask," said Jimin as the noona returned to continue packing up after decided tomorrow at 11.00 in Tae and Ella's shared room to do it.

"You're right," said Ella knowing that she was boosting his ego. She wanted to continue talking when their attention was turned to a loud yell, "10 minutes to go. Get ready, everyone."

After that yell, the staff started working twice as hard. The members were getting their last touch-ups before they were about to go on stage.

"I guess that's my cue," said Ella and Jimin at the same time as her uncle walked up to them. They laughed, and Jimin started going over to the others. When he reached them, Ella saw Namjoon giving them their pep talk and good luck wishes.

"Are you ready to be escorted to your seat?" asked her uncle, turning her attention to him. She grabbed her bag that hung on the armrest of the chair and stood up, "Show the way."

They exited the backstage together and headed for the VIP area of the stage. Ella heard the fans singing along the music video that was being played on the big screen on the main stage. From the sounds of it, the song was Make it Right. She nodded her head to the staff they passed. In the meantime, her uncle told her that the ticket for her seat had already been scanned. Therefor ready for connection to the ARMY Bomb. He opened the crush barriers to the VIP section to let her in and closed it as soon as she passed. Just as Ella wanted to ask her uncle how to connect her ARMY Bomb to the ticket, he already walked away. Ella sighed and dropped her head.

'Okay, this is not the time to be sad about this,' thought Ella as her eye fell on the empty seat on the front row two chairs from the left corner. She could feel the eyes of the other ARMYs on her as she walked over to it. Ella didn't expect to be so intimidated by them. She had faced far worse situations than this one. Cautiously she took place on the seat and put her bag on her lap. She took out her ARMY Bomb and looked at the ticket, 'How the hell do I connect this piece of paper to the ARMY Bomb?'

She looked to her left as she saw two girls enthusiastically talk to one another. Deciding against interrupting their talk, she looked over to her right for help. Luckily for her in the seat immediately right of her seemed to be her salvation. There was a girl around her age on her phone scanning the ticket that she purchased for the show. The young girl, presumably, connecting the concert ticket to her ARMY Bomb. Ella nervously tapped the girl on her shoulder. Long brown hair flipped over the girl's shoulder, and a pair of brown eyes met Ella's blue-grey ones.

"Excuse me, can you help me?" asked Ella slowly in case the girl didn't speak English very well. The brunette nodded, and her face morphed into question but was soon overthrown by realization, "Sure, with what?"

Although the brunette probably recognized her, Ella was glad she was blessed with a fan who could speak English.

"Well, this is my first BTS concert, and my uncle told me that I had to connect the ticket to the lightstick for it to work. The only problem is I don't know how to connect it. Can you help me?"

The brunette's face softened as she overcame the realization, "Of course! Do you have the BTS lightstick app on your phone?"

"Of course, it's an app. Why didn't I think of that?"

Ella heard the girl giggled at her somewhat devastated reaction when she grabbed her phone from her jeans pocket. She unlocked the phone and checked all the apps on it. Even in the complete menu and on the pre-last page, she found it.

"Is this it?" asked Ella as she showed the app to the girl.

"Yes, that is it. Now the first thing you want to do is turn Bluetooth on for both the phone as the ARMY Bomb," said the brunette as Ella did what she was told, "Great, now open the app and go to concert mode. Click on the concert on today's date."

Ella opened the concert mode and pressed on the concert listed on October 11th. She then came on a page to select her seat number. She turned her head to the girl in a complete panic.

"Stay calm. Press the camera option. This will allow you to scan your ticket. After that is done, confirm the information that is shown on the screen to the information on the ticket. If that's all okay, then just follow the instructions on the screen to connect the ARMY Bomb."

Ella checked the information on the ticket and compared it to the screen. When she saw that was the same, Ella continued, and as the brunette said, the screen showed precisely how to connect the ARMY Bomb. The phone changed to the same color as the ARMY Bomb, so she tapped yes. After that, a ticket entry completion message showed up wishing her fun during the concert. Ella smiled as she turned to the brunette to thank her for her help.

The brunette smiled just a bright, "You're welcome. Have fun, Ella."

That sentence confirmed her suspicion. The excited talk that followed after the brunette to her friend next to her containing 'Kim Taehyung' and 'Ella Young' only amplified that suspicion. She felt a sting in her birthmark as she heard them talk. Something about hearing her boyfriend's name fall from another girl's lips so smoothly felt unpleasant. Ella shook her head at the reaction and tried to relax into her chair. She looked on her watch and saw there was still 1 minute left of the 10 that the staff member said there were left when her uncle brought her here. 'I'm surprised I managed to get ready within these 10 minutes,' thought Ella as the familiar notes of Dionysus started playing, indicating that the concert was really about to start.

About an hour and a half into the concert, Ella could hear the familiar sounds of Singularity playing. She wanted to sit up straighter in excitement and sink into her seat in embarrassment at the same time. She knows very well that this was the song that he would use to make sure that her attention wouldn't be leaving him.

Per usual, Ella's intuition was right. From the moment, Taehyung laid in that bed on stage until the moment he disappeared of the podium for the next group song to start shortly after with him in a completely different outfit. Her attention didn't leave her man for a moment. She had a small smile on her face as she thought about the wink he threw to her side of the VIP section. Ella knew that wink was only meant for her, but it still sends the entire stadium into a fit of excited screams. She even smelled the arousal in the stadium going up more than that Jung Kook had done during Euphoria. Ella shook her head as she remembered that, 'I finally understand why Taehyung is the one that the media in South-Korea call the 'Visual Representative of K-Pop.' Fuck me, he was right when he said it to me earlier.'

She didn't have much time to reminisce on her thoughts as the tunes of 'Fake Love' started playing, and the boys appeared on stage again. Not that Ella expected any different, the crowd went wild for the millionth time that night, and the ARMY Bombs started lighting in their colorful pre-programmed lighting. For this song, they were on the small stage between the first rows and the VIP section, so all she saw was their backs, but she didn't mind. It's part of going to a concert. Just as the screams of excited fans and the deaf feeling in one's ears. What she was most happy about was that she hadn't gone into a state of panic yet, as not only Ella had feared she would.

Now was really the last time of the night that she saw BTS on the stage as they closed off their encore. Ella laughed as Jimin screamed very loudly that he loved ARMY. Then again, that is typically Jimin. Many ARMYs yelled back that they loved him, and then the concert was truly over. Ella hadn't seen the time her watch showed when the performance started, but it was now around 22.30. So that meant that they were entertained for about two and a half hours. She was about to stand up as she saw a staff member motioning her to follow him to the backstage when she felt a hand on her right shoulder.

"Thank you, Ella," said the brunette who helped her with her ARMY Bomb issue as she followed the hand on her shoulder to the person it belonged to, "I've not been to many BTS concerts before. This one will probably remain the most memorable. This was their first concert in Saudi Arabia, which makes it memorable, but the thing that I loved the most was that the boys goofed off in front of us so many times. Probably more than that they have done during any other concert of this tour. That is thanks to you."

Ella laughed somewhat uncomfortably, "I don't know if it was thanks to me. Then again, I don't have much experience with concerts in general and can't compare it to anything."

"It really is thanks to you," said the brunette with an equally thankful expression, "If you don't believe me, then believe the social media that is going to start trending as I believe that I'm not the only one who recognized you."

Ella followed the hand of the brunette as she gestured to the fans of the seating area behind the VIP section and saw then whispering amongst each other, pointing not too subtle in her direction. She was the faces of the fans morph into shock when they realized that she was looking in their direction and started screaming her name, which caused more remaining fans in nearby sections watching to see what was going on.

"See what I mean?" said the brunette who had a doubtful look on her face, "I was wondering if there might be a way for us to keep in contact."

"Why?" asked Ella surprised as she didn't expect the question. The face of the brunette fell into disappointment, which caused Ella to continue, "It's not that I don't want to, but it's just that I don't understand. I'm not that interesting."

"I don't really have a reason aside from learning that you're a genuine person. I saw your reactions and interactions during the concert, and I'd like somebody like you to have as a friend."

An offended scream could be heard through the stadium. Somebody stated that they just wanted to talk to Ella. That interrupted what Ella wanted to say. The pair saw some fans from the seating section being escorted by the staff toward the exit. From the corner of her eye, she saw the staff member coming up to them and saying that she had to go now as more fans wanted to break the rules and try to meet and talk to her.

"As much as I want to finish this conversation, I'm afraid that I have to go know. I don't know how to we're going to stay in contact, but we will. I promise," said Ella as she thought of something very quickly, "Texting or emailing might be difficult, but we can write to one another until BigHit had made some kind of agreement that you would have to sign to get my contact information. Here's the address that you can send me letters to. As long as you address it to Ella Young, I'll get it."

"I understand," said the brunette as she took the paper with the mailing information from her, "Thank you that you want to say in contact. Do you think you can say hi to the members for me?"

"Of course," said Ella as the staff member started pulling her to the exit of the VIP area, and she called over her shoulder, "What's your name? Oh, don't forget to put your address in the first letter. Otherwise, I can't send something back to you."

Ella heard the brunette scream her name as well as promising to include her address. She memorized the name quickly as she was whisked away by the staff member toward the excited fans. A member of her uncle's security team came up on her right as she passed the fans who tried to reach for her shielding her from their reach.

"You did very well," said the woman reassuringly. Ella looked surprised as she assumed all the members of the security team were males, "It'd be a shame if you go into a panic attack now. I think it would be best to remember this concert on a high note with the gaining of a new friend."

The woman flashed her a wink as they finally passed the backstage curtains. Ella felt a weight falling off her shoulders as she let go of the panic she felt from moving past the fans. The security member was right the concert experience was marvelous, and it would be a shame to let it be destroyed by a couple of fans and her PTSD that causes her panic attacks.

She didn't have much time to linger in her thoughts as a very enthusiastic voice could be heard from miles away. Ella giggled as the excitement as she wondered if the last fans in the venue had apprehended his voice as well.

"Calm down, Hobi! How do you still have so much energy left after this concert?"

"He always has an energy level this high after a concert," heard Ella from a tired Yoongi behind him.

"I can't help it. I just really really want to know what our good friend, who just saw a BTS concert for the first time, thought about it."

Yoongi perked up slightly at this as he now also looked curiously at her waiting for her opinion.

"May I first take a moment to calm down? I just had an interaction with your fans cause they recognized me after you left the stage."

Ella saw their excited faces fall and hear her boyfriend's voice laced with concern as he walked up to her pulling her into a comforting hug, "Are you okay? They didn't try anything, did they?"

"I'm okay. Heck, I was amazing. I felt energized during the entire concert. I did feel a little intimidated when going back to the backstage as I needed security to pass some excited fans, but I'll live," said Ella while taking in Tae's hug as she felt that she needed the comfort.

"We saw that you enjoyed yourself," said Jung Kook, who came up to the group standing just behind the curtain of the backstage. If the remaining fans only knew how close the boys were, then they would probably start a roid, "You're dancing, singing, and screaming just as excited as the other fans during the concert."

"I guess that is just a little bit of magic you guys have," said uncle Vince with an all-knowing grin on his face that pulled out Jimin's curiosity, "What are you not telling us, Young-hyung?"

"Yeah, what is it?" said an equally curious Jung Kook, although his eyes showed something mischievous.

"Wouldn't you like to know," grinned Vince in a musing voice, "As much as I'd like to tell you I can't. If looks could kill, then I'd be dead already."

This caused all the boys present in the room to turn their heads. Well, all except for Taehyung, who pictured the look on her face and decided not too. They all turned pale and gulped at her glare from over Tae's shoulder.

Jung Kook gulped the hardest as he knew what uncle Vince meant when he said it and excused himself very fast after seeing her face.

"Should we head to the dressing room? Get changed. Then we can go back to the hotel, perhaps take a shower, and rest up for tomorrow."

Everybody nodded at his idea, and Taehyung changed his full hug into a side hug as he pressed her into his right side. Together they followed the other to the dressing room.

It was already 23.45 as Taehyung swiped their keycard into the door and let Ella go in first as the gentleman he was. She walked in and let herself fall onto the bed, mumbling into the sheets. She heard Taehyung walking up to her and felt the place next to her dip under his weight.

"Care to say that again?"

"I'm exhausted."

"Really? You didn't look that exhausted during my solo," said Tae in a low husky voice laced with some arousal as he remembered how she looked at him during his entire solo, "I told you that you wouldn't be able to look away."

Ella trembled when she heard his voice. She didn't dare to look up from the sheets, so she didn't. That was a big mistake as she felt Taehyung blow into her left ear to gain her attention. Ella let out a small moan.

She knew that Taehyung was totally turned on as she felt him place a hand on her right shoulder and turned her around to lay on her bed. Her face flushed red when her eyes locked with Tae's lust-blown dark ones. For a few seconds, nothing happened. He was just looming over her with an expression that made Ella feel heated up.

Taehyung looked at her like how she usually looks at her next meal before thrusting her teeth into the neck of whatever became that meal. In the way that a predator looks at his prey. For Taehyung, at that moment, Ella was his next meal. As much as Ella wanted to look away in embarrassment, she couldn't. She was too fascinated by his face. Taehyung finally took his chance.

Ella felt his lips mold with hers as they have so many times already since they started dating. However, this one felt for needy and lustful. The situation was right. Both of them were turned on and in need of each other's attention.

'Oh, his lips are just divine. I'll never get enough of this,' thought Ella as she opened her mouth for Tae's tongue, who asked permission, 'Wait if this continues, then I'll break my promise to talk. We'll break our promise.'

His left hand waved itself into her hair as she felt him slightly change the position of his face to deepen their kiss. Ella could feel his right hand traveling from her cheek over her breast, making her gasp when he squeezed it. He smirked into the kiss as his palm went further down the exposed skin due to how she made a knot in the shirt she wore.

Ella let out small gasps as felt Taehyung leaving open-mouthed kisses along the right side of her neck until he found the spot that made her moan. She placed her hands, which were formerly gripping onto the sheets, on his upper arms squeezing as she begged him to stop knowing that this way would lead to something else than having their talk.

It's not that Ella wanted to stop. She wanted to continue just as much as he did, but knew that it would be more challenging to open up him after they would have had, well, sex. It's already hard to tell now, but then it'd be impossible. Jung Kook might have accepted her, but her boyfriend might not.

"Stop? I've just begun."

Ella firmly places her left hand on his chest, pushing him up a little. This time Tae pulled away enough to look into her eyes and let out a sigh as he saw her grave yet aroused face.

"You know that our talk would only be more difficult if this had continued."

"You're right," said Taehyung as he rolled himself of her back to his original place, "I can't believe I almost forgot about our talk."

Ella sat up against the headboard of the bed. Soon after, Taehyung pulled himself up as well to sit next to her. He placed a hand over her right knee as she had pulled her legs off to hug them. She felt very petite at that moment. Ella was afraid of what he might think about her, her past, and the fact that she lied about him. She felt him place his other head on her left cheek as he made her face him.

"You know that you can tell me everything, right?" said Taehyung with a loving glance in his eyes. Ella felt her heart hurt as she saw his look, knowing that he might not look at her that way ever again after tonight.

"I know I can," said Ella as she left out a heavy breath, "I just don't know if you want to hear it."

"Ella, jagi, if you're not ready. You don't have to tell me. I don't want to pressure you. I, we, all of the members just want to be able to help next time something like what happened the other day happens again."

Ella smiled lovingly at him, grateful for his concern, but it soon fell as she remembered that she promised Jung Kook to tell him everything. Everything means everything. No half-bend truths. Nor little white lies to ensure that her boyfriend might not break up with her. She watched his thumb lovingly move over her knee as he tried to comfort her.

"I'll tell you, but for that, I've to tell everything. The entire truth," said Ella as she let out a sigh looking up to his face again. His face held multiple emotions, love, concern, and some confusion, "Taehyung, I'm not the girl you think I am."

She saw Taehyung opening his mouth to say something, but she placed her right finger over his lips to stop him from starting. She took one more deep breath and started talking.

"To start at the very beginning and explain why I'm not the girl you think I am, then I first need to explain my birth and legacy that I'm a part of. It might sound strange and unbelievable, but I assure you it's all true. I was born into a family with a strange legacy. My mother, Rose Waters, was an orphan moving from foster home to foster home until she was old enough by the Dutch system to be called an adult. In the Netherlands, you're officially an adult when you're 18 years old. She left her last foster home on her registered birthday at the orphanage was in the information about her when she was left behind. When she was 22, she met my dad. Somewhere between those years, my mom discovered what she really was. A werewolf."

Ella didn't dare to look at Taehyung anymore as she continued her story, afraid of the emotions that would travel to his face. Although her right shoulder gave off an intrigued feeling. Was Taehyung the one who caused that feeling? Could her mom's theories on soulmates be true?

"I don't know how, but she did. The only thing I know it has something to do with killing a person. If you're a carrier of the gene and kill someone, then you turn during the next full moon after that moment. My dad, Nik Young, however, is a different story. My father was born about a thousand years earlier."

She heard him gasp, but he didn't stop her as he probably wanted to know everything she wanted to tell him whether or not he believed it.

"Like my mom, he was also born a werewolf, but that is not all that he was. When my dad was 29, his youngest sister was brutally murdered, and this caused my grandparents to take some really drastic measures. My grandmother, a witch, magically turned his other siblings and him into vampires. After killing his first victim, he activated his gene and became the first-ever hybrid or the Original Hybrid."

She felt Tae's hand wipe away a tear on her right cheek. One that she didn't even know was there as she relived her parents' past knowing what is still to come.

"Please continue," said Tae in a voice not higher than a whisper. Yet she could hear it flawlessly, one of the perks of having a heightened hearing.

"The pull between them was so strong that when they met that they had a one-night stand. My mom, in that way, was just like you. She strongly believed that fate brought them together. Perhaps even made them soulmates," said Ella through a strangled laugh, "Aside from that, nine months later, I was born. I inherited both their werewolf side as well as my father's vampire side, making me the first-ever natural-born hybrid. We're doing alright until the day that I turned 16."

She couldn't control her tears anymore and burst out crying. Ella was shaking as she was pulled against Taehyung's chest, who whispered sweet nothings. Against his chest, she continued her story, "O-on my birthday fi-five years ago there was a huge ma-massacre on the Boarding School founded by my parents. The maniac responsible for that mass murder wanted to take my life as well as my parents' lives. I've seen that monster kill so many of my friends and classmates in front of my eyes. F-for a short time, I managed to get away and met up with my parents. Instead of listening to my mom and ran away like I should have done, hearing her painful cry stopped me in my tracks. When I turned around, my mother was lying in a pool of her own blood."

She hiccuped very loudly, and frantic knocks were heard on their hotel room door.

"Everything all right in there?"

They looked at the door and to each other as they knew all the members were at the door. She nodded to him as his look asked her if it was okay to let them in. Ella heard Taehyung tell her to continue as he got up from the bed and walked to the door. She heard him quietly say that she was telling him about what happened the other day and her past, but that she couldn't start over again and had to believe her word for it as he also still had to decide whether it was true. The only thing heard was the shuffling of footsteps and seats being taken. Taehyung took place next to her again. Once again, pulling her into his chest.

"I stood there frozen as I watched my mom die. I don't remember much of the conversation the attacker and my dad had, but I do remember seeing a birch stake, the only thing that can kill an Original, flying towards my head. However, I was never hit by it as my dad shielded me from it, but killing him. Somehow he also managed to kill the attacker, or else, I wasn't here right now. In the first days after the massacre, I woke up screaming in total panic and shaking as I relived the attack every night. My uncle, your bodyguard, was there for me the first days. After a month, I was left alone by the only people that I cared about in the entire world. Struggling with the loss of my parents, suffering from panic attacks, which was diagnosed as PTSD on my 17th birthday. An entire f*cking year later. Going through being bullied and blamed for the death of my parents. Blaming myself for it as well."

Ella blinked her tears away, looking everywhere but at the boys. She didn't even dare to look at Jung Kook, who knows her secret. Too afraid of what they're thinking.

"Yesterday was the first time in two years that my PTSD was triggered again, and I lived through that memory again. A memory that I had long forgotten, but that recalled questions that I didn't dare to ask sooner. I guess I'm still not over it. You probably think I'm lying, but I'm not. I can show you I'm not."

She looked at the boys for the first time since they entered. Their expressions held so much pain as they listened to her story, but they didn't dare to open their mouth to ask what she meant. Ella took a deep breath as she let the mask fall showing them with full intention her real face. Dark veins appeared under her eyes. Her blue-greyish eyes turned bright yellow. So bright that they might be glowing. She opened her mouth to clearly show them her growing canines. She could hear multiple gasps and a loud thud.

She looked at the source of the thud and saw that Jin and J-Hope had fainted. That would be a lot of explaining when they would regain consciousness. Ella felt their stares on her and looked away quickly. She felt ashamed and scared of their opinions. A pair of hands found her cheeks and made her look in the direction the person wanted her to look. Her still yellow eyes met Taehyung's dark ones. Instead of being afraid or disgusting like she expected, he looked intrigued and interested.

"You must think I'm a monster."

"Don't you dare to say that. You're not a monster. You're real, true, genuine, and perfect."

"I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

She wanted to disagree again when Jimin spoke up for the first time since entering, "Would a monster tell her friends this?"

"Uhm, I guess not."

"Exactly," said Yoongi, "Taehyung is right. You're genuine and true. That alone makes you real."

"So, you're not afraid, disgusted, or mad for the facts that I tell you months after meeting each other?"

"It might take some getting used to," said Jung Kook, who smiled proudly at her, "I'm sure that even Jin and J-Hope will understand why you didn't tell us right away."

Ella smiled back at him and let out a startled yelp making her face turn back as well when Taehyung pulled her into his chest, "I'm sorry you had to go through that."

"You can't do anything about it. It happened and can't be undone."

"Do your parents have a special resting place?"

Ella pulled herself out of the hug and looked at Namjoon, slightly confused, "I'd like to pay my respects to them. For raising you to be strong and protecting you when you needed it most."

"They do," said Ella, who had tears welling up in her eyes again, which Tae quickly wiped away caused her to smile, "We do have to go to my home country for it. So the only possibility would be when you all have a long time off again, or it has to be scheduled in by your manager."

"We'll make it work," said Taehyung, Namjoon, and Jung Kook at the same time, causing everybody to burst out laughing.

After an hour, Jin and J-Hope had finally regained consciousness and were bombarding Ella with questions. She tried to answer most of them but had to repeat herself more than she can count on her hands. It was Namjoon who cut the boys off and suggested to return to their own rooms. Slowly all the boy stood up and started heading for the door. Ella, however, stopped them in their tracks.

"As much as I want to trust that none of you will talk about what we discussed in this room, I know better than to just let you walk out of that door like this."

The boys slowly turned around, and Ella saw Jung Kook realize what she meant, "It's okay, hyungs. What she is going to do won't hurt." She saw the boys relax a little at his words but were still a little tense because they didn't know what to expect as Kookie continued, "This is for our, but most importantly her, safety."

"He's right," said Ella as she dilated her eyes and started her compulsion. The boys slowly fell into a hazy state of mind, "You will not discuss anything we talk about with anybody. You will only bring this up when it's only all of us or individually one of you and me in a room together. Oh, and uncle Vince. Can you out loud agree to this?"

"Yes," said all of them very quickly. Ella smiled as she let them come out of it, "Perfect. Have a good night, everybody."

After that, she walked off the bathroom to get ready for bed. She heard the boys say goodnight and footsteps come over to her location after the door was closed. Ella smiled into the mirror, happy about how the talk went.

Part 11 Why is it so f*cking hectic?

Ella

Ella stirred awake as the sunlight hit her eyes. She was not ready to get up and turned around onto her right side away from the window to sleep a few hours more. Although something didn't exactly feel right, she couldn't remember what. Lazily Ella rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. Her vision became better, and her eyes focused on the side that Tae should have been on. It was empty. Then she bolted upright, 'Where is Taehyung?'

Confused and somewhat disappointed, she thought that he left without notifying her. Ella looked around the room for any signs that said that he was still in here with her. The fear she felt at that moment made her forget that she could just search for his heartbeat by concentrating and directing her vampire hearing to this room only. If she would have done that, then she would have noticed that the beating of his heart was in the bathroom.

'His phone is on the table,' though Ella as she had got up. She walked around the hotel room, searching for a sign that Taehyung was still in the hotel room. When she was about to go to the kitchen part of the room as noise alerted her,

'Wait, what is that?'

Ella followed the source of the noise and ended up in front of the bathroom. It was then that she discovered that the sound she heard was actually her man. He was quietly singing his first part in Boy With Luv going over into the chorus. It was then that Ella realized that she completely forgot that she is who she is, scolding herself in her mind, 'Stupid, stupid! Ella, you're 50% vampire! Why didn't I use my vampire hearing? That would have given me peace of mind much sooner!' Outside of the door, she leaned against it. She kept on listening to the sweet and alluring sounds he was producing in the shower.

"Your every picture Nae meorimate dugo sipeo oh bae"

"Come be my teacher Ne modeun geol da gareuchyeojwo Your one, your two"

"Listen, my, my baby naneun Jeo habeureul nopi nalgo isseo (Geuttae niga naege jwossdeon du nalgaero) Ije yeogin neomu nopa Nan nan nune neol majchugo sipe Yeah, you makin' me a boy with luv"

"Oh my, my, my (uh) oh my, my, my I've waited all my life"

As Taehyung's sweet voice continued singing the rest of the song, Ella decided to get changed as she didn't want to disturb him to freshen up. She grabbed her blue suitcase, that she had rolled into the corner opposite of the bed last night, and carefully threw it onto the bed. Opening her trunk, her original ARMY Bomb Ver. 3 - back in July, she had gotten it as an apology from the members when Taehyung got her involved in their infamous scandal - rolled out and onto the ground with a rather loud thump.

'Shit, I hope it isn't damaged,' though Ella, as she crouched down to pick it up to inspect the damage letting out a relieved sigh as she saw both functions still worked, 'Oh god, I'm glad it still works. If I had broken it, I wouldn't have gotten the experience tonight that every other ARMYs would have.'

To ensure that it wouldn't fall on the ground again, Ella placed it on the bedside table near Taehyung's side of the bed. Her calm feeling returned to her as Ella walked back to her suitcase and picked out her outfit of the day. She doesn't know what started her routine in picking out what she was going to wear, but it always started with the shoes. Always! For today she picked out her black leather-look ankle-boots and coördinated her outfit from there.

After ten minutes, she stood in front of the mirror and inspected her outfit. In the end, she decided on a white T-shirt with the text 'BTS World Tour - Love Yourself, Speak Yourself' on the front in black letters that she had knotted up at the bottom showing off her bellybutton. Underneath that, she wore a dark denim pair of ripped shorts giving the look something edgy and, of course, at her feet the black ankle-boots.

She topped her outfit off with a bandana that she had 'borrowed' from Tae's suitcase to keep her pony out of her face. It had stuck to her face the entire day yesterday due to the hot weather in Saudi Arabia, even though it is already the middle of October. Stuffing her other potential outfits back into her suitcase, Ella decided she really had to interrupt Taehyung's shower time as she still needed to brush her teeth. Honestly, she didn't want to, but her toiletries were in the bathroom, including her toothbrush and toothpaste.

Just as her hand touched the doorknob, there was a knock on their hotel door, and she heard Jung Kook's voice calling out, "Hey, are you two still in here?"

As Ella made her way to the front door, there was more impatient knocking, "V-hyung, Ella-dongsaeng, I know you're still in here as bodyguard Young said that you haven't called for breakfast yet."

"Calm down! Calm down!" said Ella frustratingly as she swung the door open, "Has your mother never told you to wait patiently for the inhabitant to open the door? Haven't your hyungs taught you some manners?"

Ella could see that Kook was not expecting her to explode like that on him as his eyes went wide in surprise while bowing his head the apologies rapidly falling from his mouth for being unthoughtful. She let out a deep sigh starting to feel bad for reacting in the way she did.

"Sorry, Kookie. I didn't mean it in that way. I just got kinda frustrated from your rapid knocking. It's still rather early after getting back so late last night. Combine that with me not being a morning person, and you get me frustrated very fast."

"No, Ella-dongsaeng, it's my fault. I should have waited for Tae or you to answer the door. Instead, I got impatient as I'm starving from hunger. Anyways, I had to ask from Jin-hyung if you two wanted to join us for breakfast."

"Oi, what did I tell you about calling me dongsaeng? We've been besties for three months now, and you still call me that after I told you not too. Just call me Ella or El, but not dongsaeng."

Ella was so caught up in voicing her frustration about being called dongsaeng even though he wasn't much older than her, just 9 months to be exact, that she didn't see Jung Kook's face change from apologetic to mischievous as he looked over her shoulder. During their conversation at the door, Taehyung had emerged from the bathroom dressed and ready for the day. He was still drying the last parts of his hair dry as his eye had fallen on them at the door. He had overheard something about breakfast. He threw his towel on the bed and tip-toed to the pair at the front door. Taehyung placed a finger on his lips to tell Kook he had to stay silent now that he had almost reached Ella in hopes of surprising her.

Ella noticed that she had lost Jung Kook's attention to something behind her, so she decided to close her eyes and concentrate on Taehyung's whereabouts. Unsurprisingly, he was directly behind her, so she decided to play along with whatever Taehyung had planned for her. She felt his arms sneak around her waist. He pulled her into his warm chest, resting his head on top of hers.

"Did ya miss?" said Taehyung in a loud and exciting voice.

Ella shot Kook a piercing glare, unbeknownst showing her true colors as her offended emotion got the better of her, as she heard him snicker at her 'surprised' yelp. She was more surprised at hearing his voice so loud in her ear.

She saw his eyes go wide as his face morphed into a 'Jungshook' one causing her to look into the mirror, which was conveniently placed on the left wall next to the door and was greeted with glowing yellow eyes with veins underneath.

Somewhat uncertain as to what happened Jung Kook rubbed his eyes and blinking a few times before starting to speak, "What is wrong -"

"Nothing, there is not a thing wrong, Kook!" cut Ella him off panicky, showing him a pair of pleading eyes not to say anything as her face had morphed back.

"Okay, then, I guess...," faded Kook's hesitant voice away while Ella could clearly read on his mind, 'She needs to explain what happened. I did not imagine that just now.' Ella gave him a subtle nod of the head and freed herself from Tae's arms, walking back to the bed, "Do you want to come in? Taehyung missed you last night. He said something about going to you for cuddles."

A silence fell over the duo at the door. JK started laughing very loudly, probably waking everybody on the floor, as Tae let out a displeased response. She stuck out her tongue playfully before picking up Tae's towel and retreating into the bathroom.

Quickly locking it behind her as she heard rapid footsteps coming to the door trying to open it.

"Yeah, sure, hide!"

"Calm down V-hyung. If it makes you feel better. I also wanted to cuddle with you last night or any member, really. That last interview gave me an upsetting feeling."

"Oh, don't start about that interview. I'm still trying to forget it. Why do the interviewers always ask such questions?"

"I don't know, Tae, I don't," said Kookie before going over into a quieter voice, "Did you see how hot Ella looked? I barely survived it. I don't think the other members will. How do you get through one day with her looking like that?"

"Okay, don't call my girl hot. It sounds strange coming from you," said Taehyung in a disgusting voice, probably showing a face just as disgusted, before continuing in a more amused voice, "Get used to it, Kookie, as I'm not planning on letting her go. The boys will have to as well. Actually, I don't know either, but I do. I know one thing for sure though she will always look smoking."

By now, Ella was as red as a tomato while showing a very bright smile. 'What did I do to deserve such a man as my boyfriend? What did I do to deserve such a group of loving friends?' said the voice in her head. Honestly, she still doesn't know, but she does know that she loves hearing the boys talk like that. Casual and without a care in the world away from prying cameras. Shaking her head, Ella tried to focus on what she should be doing. Brushing her teeth. She grabbed her toothbrush and -paste from where she left it last night. She thoroughly brushed her teeth, especially her canines.

Ella had learned from her dad to take extra good care of them as they are to most important weapon for a vampire. On top of that, when she reveals her true colors, the attention goes to her teeth first half of the time, so she has to make sure they leave a lasting impression.

As Ella was almost done flossing her teeth when she heard a knock on the door and to her surprise, heard RM ask, "Slowpoke, are you almost done?"

"Yes, I just have to put my toiletries back into the toiletry bag, then I'll be out. When did you get here?"

"Owh, it's not just Namjoon-hyung. We're all hungry and waiting for Tae and you to come to join us. If you couldn't, that Jung Kook would come back. We sent him here about 25 minutes ago, so we decided to see what is taking so long," said Jimin in response.

Ella threw her toothpick away and opened the door with an enthusiastic swing revealing the waiting boys. All their heads turned in her direction as they stopped their chat. She heard a few good mornings coming her way, so she wished them the same. From her right side, she saw Taehyung flash her a boxy smile while extending his hand to her. However, before she could take it, Jimin grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the elevator leaving the door open for his bandmates, "Come on, boys. She's finally done. Let's go to the restaurant."

"Jimin, I could have walked here myself. My legs are in perfect condition."

"I know, but it was fun to drag you away from Taehyung-ah," said Jimin in a fit of giggles as the others reached the elevator.

"Jiminie," said Hobi in a hushed voice, "you better stop laughing. Taehyung is upset with you for taking his girl away."

"Jimin-ah," heard Ella coming from a pissed-off Taehyung as she looked to the direction of the voice. Jimin's giggles were immediately cut off as he started looking pretty pale. He thought that Tae was actually pissed off at him. Ella leaned against the back of the elevator and watched the scene unfold, sensing that Taehyung was playing a game with him.

Amused Ella pulled the right corner of her mouth up into a grin. She saw Tae trying to maintain his pissed attitude across Jimin, but after a minute, he started cracking up, letting out a few giggles. He placed a hand on Jimin's shoulder, "Next time, please, alert me when you want to kidnap my girl. I could have played along with you. Duh."

This threw all the boys into a joyful laugh. Ella, however, pulled up her eyebrows in annoyance and let out a cough getting the Hyung-line's attention. The makneas were still in a fit of laughter and didn't see the look on Ella's face that had silenced the hyungs. Starting to get pissed off, she pursed her lips together into a thin line.

"Ahem," let Ella out now louder than the previous time, gaining the attention of the remaining members paling when they saw her expression, "Glad that I've got your attention. One, Jimin didn't kidnap me. If he did, then I'd have kicked him so hard in his jewels that he wouldn't be standing now." The ding of the elevator reaching the lobby came in between her words. Jimin grabbed his private zone while grimacing as he thought about how much it would have hurt. Unconsciously, all the others did so too. Ella saw her uncle's face appearing outside of the doors, "Two, at the moment, I think you have to be more worried about getting on time then about kidnapping me," pointing towards her uncle.

She saw all of the boys gulp when they turned their heads to where she was pointing. Her uncle looked rather displeased, "You're supposed to be eating already. We're behind on schedule, get a move on."

Vince turned around, taking off towards the restaurant. The boys slowly started taking off after him. The previous conversation was entirely forgotten. Jung Kook was the last one off the elevator. Ella followed behind, calling out to him, "Kook? Do you got a minute?"

Jung Kook turned around, and she directed with her head towards the corner left of the restaurant entrance. "What is it? Didn't you hear what your uncle said?"

"Yes, I did. I promise it won't take long."

She saw JK look judgingly at her as if he knew it was about what he saw upstairs at the front door. Ella couldn't let them in just yet. They aren't ready yet to know about their world, referring to both her and her uncle. It's too dangerous, especially when she, herself, still has unanswered questions. So she decided to do what she does every time somebody saw something they shouldn't. She had to compel him to think he saw something else this morning.

Ella's eyes slowly turned golden, and veins started showing up underneath them. Again she saw his eyes go 'Jungshook,' "I knew it. I didn't imagine it." His eyes started twinkling with curiosity as he opened his mouth again, "How do you do that? Are you a -"

She didn't, well, couldn't let him finish his sentence as her pupils dilated and took him into a trance. She let out a heavy breath, knowing that she might come to regret this decision. Ella opened her mouth, ready to compel him to forget what he saw this morning, but the guilt she felt for needing to take away his choice started eating at her. He is her best friend. They share everything together. So why not this?

"I want you to stay calm. You will not discuss anything we talk about with the others. You will only bring this up when it's only you and me in a room together. Oh, and uncle Vince. Can you out loud agree to this?"

She saw that Kook's mind was in conflict. She did not know if it was because he didn't agree to the terms or because it would mean that he would have to lie to his best friends. It amazed her how long he able to resist her compulsion. After a minute, he looked like he made up his mind. The curiosity must have taken over as she didn't expect him to say his next words.

"Yes," let Kook out, shakily, "Yes, I agree."

She slowly let Kook out of her compulsion, but still, the heavy feeling was on her shoulders. The guilt ebbed away, but she knew that it would be a heavy conversation to get through. Jung Kook shook his head as he got out of his hazy state of mind, "What just happened? How did you do that? What's going on?"

"Remember what you just promised. Calm. I can still make you forget everything. Don't push it," said Ella as she held him up by his throat against the wall. Once again, her real face shined through her facade.

"Yeah, I remember. Can you please put me down?," said Kook rubbing his throat as she put him back on his feet, "I do, however, still I have questions, and you said we would talk. So talk, please."

"Okay," said Ella, still slightly irritated at JK's pushy behavior, but let it slide as she saw he genuinely wanted to know more. Ella let out a heavy sigh, 'Better fast, than never at all,' so she blurted out her secret, "I'm a hybrid."

"You're a what?" let JK out in a rather loud voice. His face morphed into confusion.

"Quiet, we don't want everybody to know what we're talking about know, do we?"

Kook quickly shook his head, slightly fearing she would push him against the wall again, "No!"

"Great. To answer your question, I'm a hybrid. I'm a part vampire and a part werewolf. What you saw earlier this morning and just know is part of my true face. Truthfully, this morning was a slip-up. I never intended you to find out like this, but I couldn't take away your choice to about this."

The pair was so caught up in their conversation that they didn't see Vince nearing them. He started listening in on them as soon as they fell behind. Despite knowing that Ella can handle herself, Vince was still protective over her and wanted to make sure that she was okay after yesterday. He, even now, wondered if those events were what she wanted to talk about to him. When he heard Jung Kook said that he didn't imagine it, he started to slowly walk over to them. Fearing that she might do something that she would regret.

"Ella," came her uncle's voice for behind them, "What are you doing? Why did you tell him your secret?"

Their heads turned in his direction and saw him waiting for an answer. Ella froze up, not knowing what to tell him. Before she could speak up, Jung Kook opened up speaking his sincere thoughts, "Please, don't be mad with her. I found out this morning, and she gave me my choice in this matter. If you feel conflicted about this, she already made me promise not to tell the others."

Uncle Vince looked from Jung Kook to Ella and back, letting out a heavy sigh, "Okay, I don't know how it happened, but we'll talk about this later, Ella, alone!"

"Okay."

"Now, come on, the others are already eating. Go grab your food. Jung Kook, if you want to talk about it now, then tell me so. That way, I can say that you two are having a heart to heart conversation and need a little more time therefor joining us later at the venue."

"I'd appreciate that. Thank you for not taking away my choice. Do I have it right that you aren't normal as well?"

"I'll let Ella tell you that. Kid, you're really too curious for your age," shaking his head as he left towards the others to inform them of the situation.

JK and Ella looked at each other. "That ended somewhat well," said Kook. Ella shook her head, "Go get your breakfast. I'll look for a more private location."

Jung Kook quickly left toward the walking buffet, and Ella looked around for a secluded table. In the far right corner, she found an empty table with fewer people around and started heading towards it. On her way there, Ella passed the others, who were seated at a large table against the left wall. Stuffing their mouths with food and talking amongst each other. Like any other group of people in the restaurant.

Ella was somewhat surprised that they hadn't encountered any fans in the lobby while heading toward the dining area. She felt relieved that she could at least have a quiet breakfast, before heading to the venue, which meant meeting the Riyad ARMY again.

She shook the thoughts away. From the corner of her eye, she saw her uncle stopping Taehyung from calling out to her, saying something about her talk with Jung Kook not being over yet. They just located it here as Jung Kook still had to eat. Otherwise, they would arrive even later.

She felt her phone - a purple Samsung Galaxy S20 with BTS logo on the back - vibrate, indicating that she got a text. Samsung and BTS are currently working on a collaboration for the newest generation of Samsung phones that are coming out in 2020. Her old S7 decided to take a swim, and through Taehyung talking about it to the representative from Samsung, they gave her a collaboration S20 to replace it. Gave, not for a special prize. Entirely for free. In her opinion, the company did it to have her test the device thoroughly before it would arrive on the market. It also came with a limited edition pair of Galaxy Buds and a charging pad. Both in BTS purple style. The phone, however, was so new that Taehyung had to give her a speed course on how to use it.

Tae-Tae: Since Jimin dragged you out the room earlier, I took your ARMY Bomb with me. It's in my bag when you need it. Your uncle said that you and Kookie are having a heart to heart. Is everything okay? Should I be worried?

Ella: Thank you! You're the best boyfriend in the world!

Ella: Everything is okay. I just needed Jung Kook's opinion about something we've talked about a few weeks back. It's nothing to worry about.

Tae-Tae: I know I am. If you say so. You know that you can always talk to me, right?

Ella: I know! I will, next time, okay? I love you!

Tae-Tae: Okay! I love you more!

Ella put her phone away as Jung Kook took place at the table with a plate to the edges filled with food, "Have a nice meal!"

"Thank you," said Jung Kook after he swallowed his first bite. He tilted his head to the left side clearly debated whether he should ask it and went for it anyway, "Don't you have to eat?"

"Not necessarily. It doesn't feed me in the same way it does you. I only eat to keep up my cover or when I truly want to eat it," said Ella earnestly, looking him straight in the eye. Jung Kook continued eating, not looking away for even a second. Well, only when he grabbed a new piece of food to stuff in his mouth, "The only food supply that truly satisfies my hunger is, well, blood. It can be any kind of blood. Bunny, deer, fox and... human."

The last word hesitantly fell from her lips. From JK's face, Ella couldn't quite read what he was thinking. Jung Kook tilted his head to the other side as another question fell from his lips. One that she didn't expect to come first.

"How does it taste? Human blood, I mean?"

"Uhm, it tastes different for every vampire and per human. I don't necessarily have a preference, but my uncle has an entire stash of A+ in a cooler at your company. So yes, Vince is a vampire."

"Now I know why he didn't want me to touch his cooler. He was very strict about his cooler at the company. Nobody is allowed to touch it. Well, I guess nobody but you," stated Jung Kook calmly despite what they're talking about, "Have you ever bitten one of us? Or wanted to bite us?"

"The very first day we met. That was the only time that my hunger tried to take over. I would never do anything to hurt all of you. That includes biting one of you. I don't think my emotions could survive that."

"Hmm," nodded Kook in acknowledgment, "That finally explains why you suddenly had to go to the 'ladies room' without announcing it yourself."

They both let out a laugh remembering how Ella reacted when her uncle told them that as an excuse. A message notification came from Jung Kook's pocket. Ella scanned the restaurant realizing that the others were already gone. They probably were already busy practicing for tonight.

"So that was bodyguard Young. He said we really have to go to the venue now. The staff is getting worried about the soundcheck and everything else they need to get ready for tonight and need me for."

"I can understand. Well, let's go then."

"Before we go, Ella, when are you going to tell the others? More importantly, when are you going to tell Taehyung? If you can't tell everyone at once, as it is a critical and big secret to take in, then you should start by telling him."

"Err, I first need to talk to my uncle about something important. I promised Tae I would talk to him about the events from yesterday so I'll tell him then. The others, well, I don't know yet."

"At least, you don't have to worry about me telling them. Not because I can't, but because I also wouldn't betray your trust. I hope you know that."

"I do, Kook, I do. That's why you're my best friend. At least I hope we still are?"

Ella looked at him with an expectant look on her face. Jung Kook showed her his bunny smile, "Of course, we are. What you are doesn't change who you are."

"Great," said Ella as she smiled a smile that reached to her eyes.

The boys were going through the entire show before the fans that bought VIP soundcheck tickets would be allowed into the stadium. Ella sat a few rows away from the stadium watching them goof off from time to time, but definitely working as, well, the professionals they are. They listened to hints and tips from their staff just as their crew listened to what they had to say. It showed the mutual respect they had for each other as artists and employees. It was impressive to see.

Ella happily swayed her head along to the tunes off Boy With Luv that the boys were at now. Taehyung flashed her a wink as he sang bae. She shook her head. She didn't want to believe that he was flirting with her, especially with so many people around. He had been at it ever since Jung Kook and her arrived at the venue. His concern from earlier nowhere to be seen.

"I hope for you that he won't be openly flirting with you during the concert. I don't think the ARMYs will survive that," said uncle Vince shaking his head as he took place next to her.

"Don't even start. Taehyung has been at it ever since I got here."

"Must be those racing hormones in his body. I can sense his arousal from here, and I don't have your sense of smell."

"Luckily, he smells even better when he is aroused. Otherwise, I really needed to find a solution to this problem."

"Speaking of solutions, how did everything with Jung Kook go?"

"Okay, I guess," said Ella as she scratched the back of her head and looked at the said man, "He took it in really well. Better than I thought, he would take it. I answered as many of his questions before we had to leave, but I'm sure he has more."

"Okay, okay," said her uncle while following the boys with his eyes. The protectiveness for them shining through. If anything were to happen, then he would be there in the blink of an eye.

"Uncle, who is Ethan?" said Ella gaining her uncle's full attention. He whipped his head in her direction. It showed an emotion although she couldn't decipher which.

"Where did you hear that name?"

"I didn't hear it. I remembered it. To be more exact, the entire memory of... of my parents' death flashed back into my head yesterday when I collapsed. In that memory, I heard that name. The attacker from that day said that Ethan would keep sending people after us until all the members of the Young family are dead. What happened that this man, Ethan, wants all of us dead?"

Vince let out a deep sigh and sunk his head onto his folded hand deep in thought. He tilted his head to the side to look into Ella's eyes, "I guess you deserve to know."

Straightening himself up and shifted in his seat so he could look directly at Ella without having to turn his head.

"Ahem," coughed her uncle awkwardly before starting to talk, "The news of your mother being pregnant with you traveled around the world faster than we liked. That news also reached somebody who we thought we got rid of a long time ago. That somebody was Ethan. We, Bekha, your father and I, met Ethan Montgomery somewhere in 1506 about 500 years before your father met your mother. Ethan was at that time a knight serving a lord who resided in Lille, France, and we were members of a noble family, which was our cover at the time, staying at his mansion before continuing our journey back to the Netherlands."

Ella was attentively listening to her uncle's story wanting to know everything about this Ethan Montgomery. Vince turned his head to the boys who were taking a break. When they saw the pair looking at them, they gave them a wave, except for Yoongi. He settled that a nod was good enough. Ella saw Tae and Kook whisper to each other. Probably about the fact that she was finally talking with her uncle. Meaning that she was going to talk to Tae about yesterday's events. The two of them gave a wave back before uncle Vince continued his story.

"The evening before we planned to leave in November 1506 that a group of local robbers attacked the place. They probably hoped to get some quick money. We were woken up by the heavy smell of blood in the air and joined the ongoing fight with the guards. Nik, however, couldn't control his hunger, as it was a long time ago since he fed, and attacked one of the robbers drinking him completely dry. Ethan witnessed that entire event, and when they locked eyes, the disgust, anger, and fear were clear on his face. He probably thought that be would be next. Your father wanted to compel him to forget about what he saw. However, Ethan got pierced in his stomach by a sword and fell to the ground. Nik told me that he seemed dead on impact, only faint breathing and pumping of the heart was hearable. So faint that he would die within a few minutes. Your father continued to keep up the facade taking out the remaining robbers left in the mansion."

"Well, he clearly isn't dead, otherwise that vampire wouldn't have mentioned him."

"You're right, Ella. He survived that attack, but only because your aunt, Bekha, took pity on him and fed him her blood, not knowing what had transpired before that. She had hoped to heal him, but he had lost to much blood already and turned into a vampire. When we discovered what Bekha did, we wanted to guide him, hoping that he would accept our help, but his turning only fueled his disgust and anger, blaming all three of us for what happened to him. He said that if we never stayed at that place, then he could have at least died with some honor. We stripped his choice away from him. He swore that day that he would find a way to get rid of us. The entire Young family. Once and for all. After that day we hadn't seen him for years. We started thinking at some point that he was able to let go of his anger."

"So then how did he find you again?"

"Ethan showed his face in 1970, six years before your mother was born. He tried several attempts to take out one of us but failed as he was on his own while we worked together to save our lives. The last time Ethan tried was in 1976. This time he had gathered a large group of followers who wanted the same thing as him, revenge for what happened to them or their family. Or see the extinction of the Young family and all vampires. I still don't know how, but we managed to survive that attack. So did he and some of his followers. I think he learned that time and started building his larger army of followers so he could slowly plot the ultimate plan to kill us all off. I think you can guess how he took the news of your birth."

"Not too well if he sent somebody to kill on my 16th birthday."

"No, he did not. He was furious and started sending out more of his lackeys to take us out. I think he desperately wanted to get rid of you as you were the most vulnerable. One of the reasons that your parents created the Boarding School was to keep you safe, and it did until 2014. The rest of that day is now history, but the reason that we also left you on your own was so that Ethan didn't know you survived the attack. So we went to different places on the planet so that he would have to divide his attention and completely missed anything regarding you."

"Then what is he doing now? You're the bodyguard of the world's most famous boyband. Why hasn't he come after you yet? Why hasn't he come after me yet? I've made world news several times now."

Her uncle shook his head, "I truly don't know, but always watch your back. It might not take long before he shows his face again. For all, we know he might already be plotting his next move against me. You have aged much since 2014, so he might not recognize you."

Ella nodded her head in agreement, "You might be right, and you know I always watch my back."

Her uncle stood up, shaking his head in disbelief at her words.

"Uncle, thank you. For clearing up and answering my questions."

"You're welcome. You can come to me if you have any other questions, okay?"

She nodded her head. This time he truly walked away, leaving her alone with her thoughts. It seems that the story had taken up quite some time as the boys were not on stage anymore, and one of the staff members alerted her to follow him backstage. The VIP fans were about to be let into the venue. So she had to be out of eyesight. Ella attracted just as much attention from the fans just as much as the members did.

Ella was greeted by a pair of arms engulfing her into a massive hug as she entered the backstage area. The person was still sweaty from the recently finished practice, but she didn't mind as she recognized the scent. He nuzzled into her hair and mumbled something in it.

"Care to repeat that?"

"I missed you."

"I was here the entire time," said Ella while looking up to him and seeing his boxy smile drop from his face, "But if it makes you feel better, I missed you too."

His smile returned just as fast as it had disappeared upon hearing her words. Ella tried to free herself from her boyfriend's arms that pulled her even closer. She let out a desperate huff as he didn't let go, but stopped moving when she saw the serious look on his face.

"What's wrong?" asked Ella worriedly.

Tae left out a sigh as he let her go slightly, firmly placing his hands on her shoulders. He looked her directly in the eye, "I saw you talking with your uncle during our last walkthrough. Did you manage to get answers to your questions?"

"I did," nodded Ella, "He cleared up some things about some old memories that I remember during yesterday's events."

"So, are you going to tell me now what happened yesterday?"

"I will, but it's not easy for me to talk about as the memory is a big part of the reason why it happened," said Ella straight into his eyes, "To clearly tell you all the details of the story, I think that it's the best to talk about it when we've reached the hotel."

She saw Taehyung's serious look falter into a sad look. He looked somewhat hurt as he tore his gaze away. Ella carefully took his head in both her hands and directed his attention back to her. She stood on her toes, placing her forehead against his, "I made a promise yesterday and intend to keep it. You know that, right?"

He nodded in confirmation as he lost his ability to speak. "Great," said Ella while showing him a sad smile, "I just don't want to ruin your mood for today's concert."

Ella saw open his mouth to respond, but was cut off by J-Hope placing a hand on his shoulder, "I hate to cut your conversation, but duty calls Taehyung. We have to go out for the VIP soundcheck. The fans are waiting for us."

Taehyung nodded while Hobi let go of his shoulder, "I'll be right there." He directed his attention to Ella, "You'll have to let go of my face. I'm needed on stage. Time to entertain our fans!"

"I won't until you show me how excited you are instead of this glum look."

"Pfft," let Taehyung out as he tried to contain his laughter, "Okay, okay, I give in. I feel pumped. Mark my words, my girl, I'll make sure you know how much I love you. You won't be able to look away. You'll be begging for my attention tonight, after our talk."

Ella shook her head as she let his go. "We'll see about that," called Ella out, watching his figure retreat and disappearing behind the curtain leading to the stage. She could hear the fans scream in excitement. Ella was about to walk to manager Sejin for instructions on where she could watch the concert after the soundcheck was over when flashes of yesterday's events shot into her mind due to the screams she heard now. Her pupils dilated in fear, and her heart was beating over time due to the stress. She placed a hand on her chest as she recognized the upcoming panic attack. She's been having them since the day she lost her parents.

A few meters away, her uncle saw the signs as well and called his team over to instruct them to watch over her tonight. He feared that if she already got triggered by this. That she might go into a full one during the concert. Not that Ella noticed anything of that happening. She was too caught up in trying to calm herself down.

'It's okay. You're safe. Nothing will happen to you. The security team showed that yesterday and the team will do so now.'

Now that she was calm enough not to be shaking while standing on her legs, she walked over to Sejin. When he noticed her presence next to him, he looked up from his paperwork.

"Can I help you with something, Ella?"

"I was hoping you could," said she nervously tapping on the table that he was sitting at. Sejin placed a hand over hers to stop her hand movements, "You don't have to be nervous around me. You can ask me anything. I hope you know that."

"Okay," said Ella let go of a breath that she didn't know that she was holding, "You said I had to follow either your or my uncle's instruction while on tour, but neither you nor my uncle has given me instruction of where I can watch the concert tonight. Taehyung said that you had already approved that I could watch from the venue instead of from the backstage to let met experience the real deal."

She took in a breath afterward because she said everything in on breath as she tried to get it out of her mouth as fast as possible.

"Inhale Ella," said Sejin, "You have to keep breathing. Don't have to talk so fast. To answer your question, we've reserved a chair for you in the VIP section. The section of which the fans are now enjoying the soundcheck. You'll join them later on. We decided to place you there so that you can enjoy the show in a somewhat less crowded part of the audience, but also has the smallest chance of getting recognized by fans."

Ella nodded to show her understanding as Sejin continued, "The fans in that section have been asked to sign as form regarding no leaking of information like seeing you there or asking you personal questions or take photographs. If any of them don't follow those rules, please notify the security around. They know what action to take."

"I will do that if necessary, but I hope not," said Ella in a hopeful tone, "Is someone going to escort me to my seat before the concert starts?"

"Yes, your uncle will take you there himself."

"Okay, thank you for the information," said Ella walking off to the dressing room. In search of her ARMY Bomb and to get some rest before the concert starts. She wished Sejin good luck with his paperwork.

Part 11 Why is it so f*cking hectic?

When we're young...series

Masterlist

Part 10 BTS tour, here I come!

Ella

The entire situation got beyond Ella's imagination seconds after the plane had taxied to the terminal and there was announced that they could get off the plane. Ella swore that she heard that Namjoon had lost his passport - luckily it was found very fast after he announced it - just moments before they had to leave the plane towards the exit of the airport, although it felt more as if they were rushed there.

'I guess that what Tae said is right. It really feels as though the tour has begun,' thought Ella as she looked at the back of her boyfriend who was talking to Jungkook with very big hand-gestures.

Taehyung had been walking ahead of her since they made their exit from the plane resulting in him being guided away first separating them in the process. The security team had guided them from the plane through the 'VIP' path of Saudi Arabia national airport, although that word was just for the fanciness of it. They had been guided through hallways and older parts of the building that were further away from the public eye. That way the only moment they would be in view for the fans and media was when they exited the terminal doors leading to the main exit of the airport.

Even now security was still around the group as she and the boys were escorted to the end of the VIP path to the exit. To her left, Ella heard a frustrated sigh and looked at Jimin who was walking beside her.

"I swear to god, Namjoon-hyung keeps losing his stuff," grumbled Jimin to her as they were walking to the exit of the terminal, "No matter how many times we go on tour or a plane for vacation someone always has to make sure that Joonie has everything."

"I take it that this is not the first time something like this has happened," said Ella letting a giggle slip from her lips at his cute grumble.

Even when Jimin tried to be angry Ella, who has seen true anger on the faces of vampires right before an attack on somebody who could have seen it coming, only found his anger funny knowing that he didn't mean it that way. From uncle Vince she had heard many stories of the boys, especially Namjoon, losing something important, like a passport, moments before needing it. So Ella made the conclusion that Jimin was only irritated and not truly angry at his leader.

"Yah!," heard Ella coming from an offended Namjoon behind them, "I'm glad you found my moment of stress so funny. For your information, when you lose something important I'm also going to laugh instead of helping you look for it."

Not able to contain her laughter anymore Ella responded through tears, "I'm sorry Joonie but thank my uncle for it later. He has fed me enough funny stories of you all losing something and yours are just predictable by now as most of the stories were about you."

"Maybe I will," responded Namjoon with a grim look on his face.

Ella wiped away a tear that rolled down her cheek wanting to say something to Namjoon in hopes of cheering him up, but her attention was drawn away by hearing faint screams of excitement coming from the direction they were headed.

"Please don't tell me that, that is what I think it is," groaned Ella as they got closer to the terminal doors seeing the storm coming that they would have to go through.

"Unfortunately, it is, but just as with the cameras, you will get used to it the more you are in public with Taehyung-ah," responded Jimin in hopes of giving her a peace of mind, "The security team will do everything in their power to keep all of us out of harm's way."

Ella looked gratefully at him before pausing in her walk to take in a deep breath to calm her nerves. Some of the security members stayed behind to ensure that she was okay and following protocol as she would need their protection when she does exit the door leading to the fans. Jimin must have notified Taehyung before exiting the terminal doors himself as Tae looked over his shoulder and turned around to check on her. Ella saw the terminal doors closing but the screams were just as loud as they were before closing due to the boys being a feast for the eyes of the ARMYs waiting for them. She had imaged that hearing them scream would be impressive to hear, but her supernatural hearing made it even more impressive yet at the same time terrifying to hear.

Ella covered her ears trying to block out the screams, but that didn't help. 'Of course, that won't help,' said that annoying voice in the back of her head, 'You have on of the best hearing skills in the supernatural community, let alone in the world.' When Tae finally reached her, he removed her hands from her ears asking with a genuinely concerned expression, "Are you okay? Do you want to rest for a moment? Is there anything you need? Can I help you?"

At the sea of questions that were leaving her boyfriend's lips, Ella cracked up and showed her beautiful smile. A smile that even warmed the hearts of the security members that stayed behind with them as the rest of BTS had already exited the terminal.

"I feel much better already thanks to you. Ahh, what did I do to deserve you?" questioned Ella while hugging him for some desperately needed comfort.

Surprised by the hug but immediately welcoming it Taehyung placed his arms around her shoulders and secured her tightly in his embrace resting his head on top of hers, "I keep wondering myself the same thing. Maybe luck has been on our side and made us two soulmates."

"You believe in something like that," muttered Ella in his chest genuinely interested.

Before Taehyung could answer her a member of the security team whispered in his ear ushering him that they really had to move on now as the other members had reached the car on the parking lot waiting for them to leave.

"Come on, the others are waiting for us," said Taehyung ending their hug and extended his hand for her, "Just be your cute, stunning, beautiful self and everything will be fine."

After one more deep breath, Ella took his hand and Tae laced their fingers giving her an encouraging smile before they picked up their walk to the exit of the airport. The second the terminal doors opened cameras started flashing and the excited screams Ella had heard earlier intensified by tenfold just as that they had done when the other members exited the terminal. They stopped in their tracks for a few seconds giving the paparazzi time to capture them perfectly on camera. It was Tae who started walking again tugging Ella along as she had kinda frozen on the spot taking everything in.

Ella started breathing faster and faster as the security members started guiding them through the sea of people wanting their attention. As if he could sense her nervousness Tae gave her hand a comforting squeeze to let her know that he would be there the entire way for her. However Ella barely registered it as all she could see were flashes of cameras that were following them to the car and the screams of the fans for Taehyung, but also for her. Her vampire senses were tingling as she tried her best to focus only on Taehyung's warm hand in hers which was her anchor in this, for her, serene experience.

"V, look over here, please!" "Taehyung! OMG, I think he looked at me!!" "No, he didn't! He looked at Ella." "Ella, you're so pretty." "Taella! Please respond, how is the status of your relationship!"

As Jimin had insured her the security team did keep her safe all the way onto the parking lot where the other members were waiting for them. Just before a guard wanted to help Ella into the van her legs gave out and she collapsed to the floor.

Several members who had seen it happen let out a concerned scream, "Ella!", while the others asked what was going on and tried to see the situation from inside the fan.

"Are you alright, miss?" "Are you alright, Ella?" said the guard and Taehyung at the same time.

Tae crouched down next to Ella with buzzing ears due to the screams said through tears shakily, '"I-I've never been s-so sc-scared before in my l-life."

Taehyung has seen Ella cry before but those times had been of laughter or because something left an impression on his girlfriend. This was a sight on his girl he was not used to. Ella has tried, since the scandal way back in July - well actually since the death of her parents but even more since then - always come across as a strong, independent young woman and she could clearly see that Tae didn't exactly know what she needed from him right now.

Now that her mind was on coming across as strong and independent a long-forgotten memory flashed back to the surface.

"I hope you know, little miss Young, that your parents won't be able to save you. Even if they defeat me, which I doubt they will, Ethan has more than enough followers who want to end the Young family line," said the old vampire with a sinister look on his face turning away from her before bursting out laughing at Ella's terrified expression, "If I don't finish the job now then he will just send somebody else until every single family member of the Young family has been killed."

The vampire turned back to her with an even darker, yet amused look as if he found it funny saying the coming words separately to let them sink in even more, "Including. You."

By now Ella was in tears, already covered in blood from the classmates that her attacker had killed before her eyes, and started to make a run for it with the only thought on her mind, 'I need to get as far away from this lunatic as possible and fast!'

This was however not the plan her attacker had for her and started going after in a slow place. Ella got even more scared now at this was the first time that she ever felt hunted down by somebody. She fled down the staircase into the main hall as fast as her feet could carry her. Just as she came down the stairs her parents came rushing in through the front door but Ella was so terrified that she didn't even notice it until her mother yelled out to her.

"Ella, oh my god, Ella, I'm so glad you're safe," said her mother in an emotional voice and pulled her into a tight embrace even though Ella was completely covered in blood that was drenching her mother's clothes.

Then something happened that was a rare occasion her father joined them in the embrace caressing his hand through Ella's hair trying to calm her down. The embrace ended shortly but was filled an entire conversation of emotions. Sadness, anger, fear, and safety had all been sensed by some of the other survivors of the ongoing attack at the Boarding School who were now carefully hiding in hopes of seeing another day.

Her mother dried Ella's tears as her father started talking, "What is going on, Ella? Who did this to you? Is the perpetrator still on the grounds?"

"Nik!," scolded her mother, "Can't you see your daughter is shaken down to the bone in fear? Give her some space."

Ella, however, didn't even need to answer her dad's questions as her attacker made his appearance at the top of the staircase.

"What a touching reunion," said the old vampire sarcastically, "I hope you don't mind if I interrupt this precious moment."

Immediately going into protection mode Nik broke two stakes out of a pillar belonging to the balustrade of the handrail guiding alongside the stairs showing his anger on his face growing out his canines while Rose ushered her daughter to the exit instructing her to run.

"No, I'm not going anywhere. I want to stay with you," pleaded Ella as her mom pushed her closer to the door.

"Ella! Now is not the time for arguing. You have to run. Go!," yelled her mother in fear for her daughter's life knowing very well that the attacker wanted Ella dead more that he does her.

Ella hesitated before turning around to make a run for it yet before she could even make it out of the front doors the most terrifying sound of the entire evening was heard on the entire grounds. It was a high-pitched scream of pain coming from Ella's mother. Alerted by this scream Ella turned around and saw an image that would be imprinted into her memory for the rest of her life. On the floor lay her mother in a large pool of blood who's breathing was labored and shallow with a birch stake in her chest.

"Oops, the wrong person," said the vampire sarcastically who had actually meant to hit Ella with that stake, "Well, it is one more Young family member who's never going to come back."

"Rose!," screamed her father trying to get to his wife but was caught off by the maniac on top of the stairway, "Ah, ah, I wouldn't do that if I were you."

Her dad stopped in his tracks to see another birch stake in the man's hands aiming it directly towards his daughter who was frozen in her spot. "You really think you're faster than me," said Ella's father while his eyes burned with rage to the maniac who was pointing a stake directly at Ella's face.

"I guess there is only one way to find out!"

Ella saw the stake nearing her face so fast that she closed her eyes and waited for the force of the stake piercing her flesh to come, but it never did as her father had vamped to her and protecting her from the stake by shielding her in his embrace. Curiosity getting the better of her, Ella opened her eyes looking over her dad's shoulder - completely oblivious to the stake in her dad's back - and inspected the scene in front of her. At the top of the stairway lay the dead body of her attacker which was starting the burn by the wooden stake in his heart. Sliding her eyes down the stairs to her mom, Ella saw that the labored and shallow breathing had stopped and concentrated on her mother's heart with her vampire hearing concluding the inevitable. Her mother had passed away in those shorts moments after she got hid to Ella opening her eyes. A strained cough tore her attention away from her mother's corpse.

"Ella," said her dad in a strained voice while turning gray due to the birch stake that has pierced through into his heart, "Why didn't run as your mother told you to?"

"I-I-I couldn't after hearing her pain."

"You're so sweet and caring just like your mom," said her dad taking her face in his hands, "Please never change your personality. It's one of the most beautiful things about you."

Her dad started coughing more and louder than before until the blood dripped out of his mouth, "I think I'm going to join your mother now. Ella, listen to me very well, I want you to go to your uncle. Go to uncle Vince. Tell him what happened and he will try his best to help you."

Ella's dad knew that this was the last time he would see his daughter and hugged her tightly. Hot tears were still streaming down Ella's face as she returned the hug just as tightly. She didn't stop hugging him until she felt him turning into dust. Despite every cell in her body telling her not to let go she knew she had to. So Ella took the remains of her dad's arms of her shoulder, in so ending the most emotional hug in her life, and stoop up taking one last look at the scene in front of her. "I promise you, dad, that I will never change my personality after today. I'll stay sweet and caring just like mom," said Ella while drying her tears and turning around to the front door to take off towards her uncle, "But I'll become strong and independent like you, dad, so that I can protect my loved ones, something that I couldn't unfortunately do today."

"Ella, are you okay?," registered Ella very faintly and she could feel her being shaken, "A concerned boyfriend to his stunning girl!"

Ella shook her head trying to shake the memory away before looking into the direction of the voice and faced a concerned-looking Taehyung trying to get her attention still crouched down next to her.

"Sorry, I was really far away just now, but I'm okay."

"You sure? We've been trying to get your attention for five minutes. Do you think you can stand?," asked Tae before standing up himself.

"I'll try," said Ella who was already in the process of standing up yet her legs gave out again as she was still shaking from nervousness and fear due to the memory that she just so vividly relived in her mind. Luckily this time her legs didn't meet the ground as Tae caught her in his strong arms hoisting her up into his chest.

"I thought you said that you were okay."

"I am, at least physically as my legs don't hurt from collapsing on them the first time," said Ella looking at in Tae giving him an earnest response, "However, mentally I'm still quite in shock of what I just went through. You are, probably, used to it by now but I'm not. I think that when I get to the hotel room tonight that I'm just going to sleep this day off and hope that I feel better tomorrow. Maybe we can cuddle after we reach the hotel if you have time, I mean."

"I can understand that. I'm positive that you will get used to it eventually, but like all of us have told you many times before we started out just like you in the beginning. We just have become used to these situations or manage to hide our emotions very well. Believe me when I say that even I still have those moments you feel right now," said Taehyung looking at her just as earnestly before giving into to the pleading eyes Ella was giving him and continued, "That sounds like an amazing plan, however, I first have to do some interviews with the boys, but I understand if you just want to relax after what you went through today."

After Tae had finished he gave her his biggest and brightest boxy smile and helped her into the van with the other members already waiting in it. Ella saw Taehyung shake his head and mouthed to towards the others, "I'll tell you later," silencing the conversation before it even started. When she caught his gaze Ella gave him a reassuring smile and leaning against the glass from the window watching the buildings flash by as they rode towards the destination of BTS's first stop after landing in Saudi Arabia.

Taehyung

Still overcoming the shock of seeing his girl collapsing to the ground and spacing out on him for five entire minutes he was now gazing into nothingness as his eyes focused on the road ahead. A shake on his right shoulder causing him to tear his head away from the road to the source of the touch on his shoulder which was Jin-hyung from the seat behind him.

"What happened?," questioned his elder him turning his head to Ella he checked to see if she could hear them letting out a sigh of relief when he saw that she was listing to music through her earbuds.

He turned his head back to Jin, who was anxiously waiting for an answer clearly concerned for Ella's wellbeing, in the meantime also gliding his eyes to his other friends from Namjoon in the passenger seat next to the driver to Jungkook on his right ending on Yoongi who was seated behind his girlfriend. They all shared the same anxious expression on their faces as Jin did. Taehyung opened his mouth to answer his hyung's question but closed it again as he could not find the right words to say about the situation yet also being overwhelmed with a somewhat happy feeling. Happy that all of his closest mates were genuinely concerned about their friend and therefor his girl.

"Don't stall too much, Taehyung-ah," said Jimin who was seated behind Jungkook, "I know that this might not be easy to talk about, but we can not help her nor give her what she needs right now if you don't tell us."

"On top of that, we're almost at our first stop of the day. The longer you wait the harder it is going to be for you, let alone her, to tell us," ushered J-Hope him into talking, "Seeing as she has completely shut herself away from us. Not that I find that strange or anything."

Kookie nodded in understanding of his hyungs words and drew Tae's attention to him as he spoke his mind, "It just leaves us with many unanswered questions and now that she has tuned out you can fulfill your promise to us and explain the situation."

Taehyung let out a frustrated sigh and gaining the van's undived attention when he said, "To be honest, even I don't truly what has happened."

"What do you mean, Taehyungie?"

"I mean, Namjoon-hyung, that I have a feeling that something else is bothering her aside from being scared of going through a sea of screaming fans and flashing cameras. I mean, we all know how terrifying that can be the first time, but none of us got so weak in the legs that because of it we collapsed on the ground in the way she did. However, that was not the strangest thing. After I crouched down next to her I only got one sentence before she started staring into nothingness non-responsive to anyone at all. Jimin-ah, did she say anything to you that sounded off somehow? Anything that might explain this behavior?"

Jimin took a few seconds to think back to before they exited the terminal at the airport before answering, "We talked about Namjoon-hyung who lost his passport when we're walking towards the terminal exit. Then Ella noticed the faint screams of the fans and started to look nervous so I tried to calm her mind. Yet when I noticed she halted her walk I went to get you cause I knew that she needed you more than she did me at that moment. So no, I haven't heard anything that might be related to her reaction."

Taehyung nodded in understanding. Jimin's explanation about the situation before he got to his girl did indeed not sound strange. In fact, that was the kind of reaction he had anticipated as he knew her background of being in public and camera.

"This is just my mind working overtime right now," said Namjoon from the front seat causing all the heads in the conversation to turn in his direction, "What if the nervousness and stress, perhaps even the fear, of the situation triggered a memory in her mind. One that made her feel similar to what she felt today and relived that moment in the time that she didn't react to you. It might even be an explanation as to why she is so shy on cameras as well."

"Perhaps," said Taehyung who was thinking very deep and far back into his mind but before he could continue what was on his mind Jin opened his mouth voicing his doubts, "Though what I find the strangest about all of this is that when she and you were caught in a scandal together she didn't even a glimpse of being camera-shy nor being uncomfortable in large groups during that press conference."

"That either makes her a very good actress and has all of us fooled at that time or she completed turned off her emotions back them," voiced Jimin showing genuine impression and respect towards her for hiding how she felt for so long.

Upon hearing the respect for his girl in his best mate's voice Taehyung gave Jimin a thankful smile and shifted his gaze from them towards Ella who was still gazing out of the window.

"Well, whatever it is what is bothering her right now I just hope she opens up about it soon."

"I hope so too, Kookie, for all of us. So that when it happens again, we know what we can do to help her," said Taehyung thoughtfully.

After the last sentence was said the members slowly turned their attention to what they were doing before the conversation had started. The silence now returned to the van Taehyung's attention shifted to Ella. He could see that she was still looking out of the window and was thinking of a way to get her out of her somber state of mind. Taehyung sneaked his left arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his chest. A small smile creeping onto his face as he heard a gasp leave her mouth clearly not expecting it. Soon enough he felt her relaxing into his chest and saw her close her eyes enjoying the moment. So did he. Enjoying the small but peaceful moment they had together before arriving at the first stop of the day.

Ella

Ella sat in a chair watching the staff at the last interview location run around and about getting everything ready before the interview actually started. She had hoped that the driver would have time to drive her to the hotel in between BTS's interviews today. However, she was disappointed as Sejin told her that this was unfortunately not possible with the tight schedule when she asked him.

The entire afternoon after they got to Saudi Arabia they had been driving from location to location. Going through the same routine every time. Drive to the location, greet the staff, watching the boys get ready for the interview, being pointed to a place to sit or stand during the duration of the interview, saying their goodbyes to the staff, and then back into the van to the next location. Uncle Vince had insured her that this was the last interview of the day and after that, they would go to the hotel. Ella left out a relieved sigh when she heard that completely done with the craziness and hectic of the day wanting nothing more than to cuddle with Taehyung on bed and peacefully drift off to sleep.

Ella watched the boys answering questions about the tour and their upcoming album that they were releasing more details on now. Even Ella didn't know all the secrets aside from the fact that it was an extension of the Map of the Soul series which was released in April of this year. She had heard some of the recording sessions that Taehyung had, but her boyfriend had said to her in Agust they wanted to keep it a secret from her just as they did for most of the people who weren't part of the creative process. Ella had been kinda upset about this, but did understand the thinking way as most of her life was a secret and although she feels bad about keeping it a secret from them, well, most importantly Taehung, she knows that revealing such a big secret had equally as huge consequences on them and their relationship.

Shaking her head in somewhat embarrassment as she heard a question that all the interviewers had been asking today resulting in her not being surprised anymore. She caught Taehyung's eyes and he clearly thought the same as her. They have been together now for three months so why are the media still asking questions about it. As much as the tour and the album are, so are they a hot topic on the list of standard questions.

Glad that they were finally entering the hotel lobby at, Ella's gaze shifted to the clock to check the time, 1 AM!, she couldn't wait until she could drag Taehyung with her into the hotel room and flop them onto the bed to cuddle until they fell asleep in each other's embrace. Lazily standing next to her suitcase, Ella looked around the lobby. The boys were quietly talking to each other near the elevator when Jimin and Jung Kook saw her watching they each gave her a bright smile and a quick wave. She returned the gesture but their attention was torn away as manager Sejin came up to them with their keycards.

She saw him give two keycards to Taehyung and say something while nodding his head towards her. Whatever Sejin said Taehyung acknowledged it and took the cards from him. Uncle Vince had come up to Ella in a cheerful mood. A mood that she was about to crush with her question.

"Uncle?"

"Yes?," questioned her uncle with an equally questioning look on his face.

"Do you have time tomorrow to talk about something important?"

Getting the reaction Ella expected he turned serious before answering, "Do you want to talk about it now? Is it related to what happened earlier?"

"Maybe, but it can wait until tomorrow. I'm way too tired after this hectic day and just want to relax with Tae," answered Ella who shifted her gaze to a waiting Taehyung nearby the pair and flashed her one of his boxy smiles when he caught her looking his way.

"If you're absolutely certain, then okay. I'll make some time in my schedule to talk to you tomorrow. Have a good sleep. I speak from experience when I say that you'll need your energy tomorrow."

Ella let out a snort and wished her uncle a good rest before walking off to Taehyung. Together in comfortable yet tired silence, they went to their room. During the ride up with the elevator, Taehyung laced their hands together and guided her to the hotel room.

Before he could even open the door Ella asked in a quiet voice, "We're still going to cuddle, right?"

Tae let out a tired laugh as he pushed open the door letting her go in first after turning the lights on, "As long as you want or until one of us falls asleep."

As both of them were too tired from today's events they quickly changed into their sleeping attire and freshened up for the night. Ella was to first one who was done and flopped onto the bed letting out a satisfied sigh when her head fit the pillow making herself comfortable under the covers.

"Somebody looks comfortable," smirked shirtless Taehyung as he walked up to the bed in a pair of sleeping shorts on some house slippers, "Do you have room for one more?"

Ella cozied herself up even more under the covers to hide the redness that had probably crept on to her cheeks muttering, "Guess so."

"You guess so?," questioned Taehyung pulling one of his eyebrows up before giving her a mischievous smirk and turning away walking towards the front door, "Then I guess you don't want my cuddles. Maybe Jimin wants them? Perhaps Jung Kook?"

Completely caught unaware by his statement Ella rushed out of bed and crashing herself into her man's back, stopping him in his tracks as she engulfed him into a back hug mumbling into his back, "No, I do want your cuddles. Of course, there is room in the bed for you."

Ella couldn't see the smile that appeared on Taehyungs face at her honest response, nor did she know that Taehyung never intended to spend the night away from her, not when he knew how she desperately wanted his comfort after what she went through today. However, she did feel him turn around in her arms and pulling her into a tight embrace. Although they didn't speak any words, they could feel their love for one another standing there in the middle of the room pressed against each other.

After a little while, Taehyung let go and took Ella's right hand walking backward himself slowly guiding her to the bed. When Taehyung's legs hit the bed he let himself fall down upon it pulling down with him.

"Whoa," let Ella out in a surprised yelp rubbing her forehead as it had collided with Taehyung's chest in a painful manner and rolled off him to lie down next to him on the right side of the bed.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you," said Tae as he kissed her forehead in hopes of soothing the soreness.

Ella flashed him a beautiful smile at his caring gesture and comfortably laid her head down on his chest listening to his heartbeat. One of the things Ella always found lovely to hear were steady heartbeats, yet at the same time, she found it so agonizingly hard and tempting not to plunge her teeth into his neck now that she heard his heartbeat skyrocketing through his chest circulating all of his heavingly smelling blood through his body. Just as Taehyung wanted to wrap his arm around her she rolled off him onto her left side finding the temptation getting too big and wanted to calm herself down.

Again Ella couldn't see his expression showing a mix of confusion and amusement when she had turned away from him. Clearly not satisfied with the current state of their position Taehyung also rolled onto his left side and snaked his arms around her waist pulling her into his body resting his head on her shoulder.

Ella shivered as she heard his low husky voice say, "I thought you wanted to cuddle?"

"Aren't we cuddling now?," reasoned Ella getting a snicker in response afterward hearing a deep swallow, "Is something wrong?"

"No, well," said Taehyung in a hesitant voice, "I don't really want to ruin the mood, but I do have something to ask."

Ella hummed in acknowledgment turned her head slightly to the right trying to catch Taehyung's eye. Hesitantly Taehyung spoke his mind, "What happened earlier today? Why did you collapse and stare off into nothingness?"

She knew that Taehyung had questions, heck, she was certain all of her friends did, but without getting answers herself she couldn't tell him what he wanted to know. Ella let out a deep sigh and closed her eyes.

Upon reopening them, Ella spoke the truth, "As much as that, I want to tell you now, I can't. At least, not until I have spoken to my uncle. He first needs to clear up some questions on my mind. Questions that only he can answer for me. When I have done that I tell you, all of you."

Smiling Taehyung decided to let the topic go, feeling somewhat relieved that the question was finally of his chest and that she did want to tell them, "Do you promise?"

"I promise," mumbled Ella holding up her right pinky so they could make a pinky-promise.

She felt Taehyung nuzzle himself into her shoulder getting comfortable whispering "Good night, jagi," into her ear pulling the covers over them. Wishing him the same they both closed their eyes drifting off to dreamland.

Part 10 BTS tour, here I come!

When we're young... series

Masterlist

Part 9 “BTS’s V AND ELLA YOUNG ARE OFFICIALLY DATING”

Ella

The months August and September flew by before she knew it. She watched the media explode after their relationship was announced. The fans trended hashtags after the V-LIVE on which the paparazzi made new articles. The cycle continued until another source of interest was found. Although the fans kept their relationship under the loop. Every time they were spotted on a date, or Taehyung invited her along to a public event, the fans made them the most talked about topic in the world again.

Like Ella had expected, the reactions were variating much, although most of them were pleasant and encouraging. It was the same every time they as a couple or she on her own made a trending topic. She wanted to keep up with the media and comments, so she decided to acquire a Twitter and Instagram account, despite her earlier words of not needing it. When the boys heard about her social media activity from their fans, they laughed in her face.

"I told you, that you would need it!" had Jung Kook said to her at that time while laughing his ass off. Ella couldn't believe that she did what she said she wouldn't do.

Jin had said to her, "Don't read to much of the comments because it shouldn't matter what other people say, including us. The only thing that matters is what you and Taehyung think about it!"

Ella thanked him and said goodbye to the boys while Taehyung walked her off to the door and gave her a goodbye kiss. Never in her wildest dreams, she thought her first social media accounts would be verified as belonging to a famous person. Yet, it was a reality for her and a fantasy many people wanted to have. Although humans who wish to have that are only after gaining followers fast. From her view, only people who honestly want to make a difference have earned that. BTS was a group of those fortunate few.

Taehyung and the boys had been practicing their asses off for the last two months to be ready for their remaining four concerts on their tour schedule. Ella had been present for most of those practices to cheer them on. Other times she would stay at home. This was either at her uncle's house or Taehyung's apartment. She kinda had been traveling between the two.

The first time Ella came over to Taehyung's house Yeontan, Tae's Pomeranian, was very wary of her as if he could sense that she was different and was barking at her, non-stop. Something that Taehyung couldn't do as he isn't a vampire or werewolf. Taehyung had told her that Tan usually accepts new people without effort. Ella still thinks that Tannie wanted to show that he was in charge of that territory, which Ella, as a werewolf, can completely understand. Gradually Yeontan accepted her as part of his pack, the more she came over to Taehyung's place. Now they are the best of friends. He had learned that she was his higher-up in the hierarchy.

'I'm going to miss that little rascal,' though Ella, as she looked out of the car window, wondering what was taking them so long. Today it was October 10th, which meant that tomorrow would be the kick-off for the last part of the 'Love Yourself Speak Yourself' tour after a well-deserved short break. 4 more concerts in just two countries, Saudi Arabia and closing off in South Korea.

She was currently waiting in the car for her uncle to come back with the boys and their luggage. She thought back to the last conversation she had with Baron shortly after making their relationship public. Taehyung and Ella's romance. Ella still found it very surprising that Baron, just like Taehyung, had a crush on her since the first time he saw her. She replayed their last conversation in her head while she waited.

Flashback

Ella looked at her phone with a frown on her face. She sat at the dining table with a wineglass of blood in her left hand, twirling it around while her uncle came into the kitchen.

"You know that frowning isn't good for your face, right?" joked Uncle Vince causing Ella to look sarcastically at him and say, "No shit Sherlock."

"Well, if you know that, then what is the problem?"

"There is no problem. I just found the text that Baron sent me very strange," said Ella, "When Tae and I told all of you about our relationship back in July, he did look a little upset, at the time I thought nothing of it cause our friendship didn't seem to change. Now that Tae and I made our relationship public, he suddenly wants to meet up saying he has to tell me something, and it has to be in person. Why can't he just tell me over text or a phone call?"

"That indeed sounds a little strange, but maybe it is something serious, and he can't say nor discuss over the phone. I think you should meet up with him even if he just talks about what bothering him," answered uncle Vince while he finally had everything ready to head to work.

"You're probably right. I'll let Baron know when I can meet up with him. Thanks for the advice! Have a good day at work and say hi to the boys for me," said Ella when her uncle walked out of the kitchen to the front door.

"I will, and you have a good day as well! Bye!" yelled Uncle Vince before the door slammed shut, leaving Ella alone with her thoughts about the text and what Baron could want to talk about.

It was now a few days later, and today Ella had planned to meet up with Baron. On the way to the meeting place, Ella had seen some paparazzi taken photos of her. It has been two months since Taella was announced to the world, and she was still not used to people taken her photograph. Ella was glad that it only where paparazzi and not fans. They tend to stay at a distance and just take photos of everything she is doing. On dates with Taehyung, Ella has had some encounters with fans who wanted a photo or an autograph, but it was still not easy to get used to people asking that of her as well. Ella knew that with Tae's job and popularity, it was part of the package deal when she became his girlfriend, but she never expected fans to want that from her as well.

Ella shook her thoughts away and walked up to the café Baron had invited her to near A Team Entertainment. She opened the door of that café and looked around for Baron. Soon enough, Ella spotted him at a table in the far corner sipping on a cup of coffee looking out of the window next to him. He looked in deep thought and looked shocked when she took place in the chair across him.

Ella giggled and said, "Don't worry. It's just me. What was so important that you want to meet me out here and couldn't say it over the phone?"

"You scared the shit out of me. I didn't see you coming," said Baron while laughing nervously, "Straight to business I see. Well, it might be better to get it out."

Ella tilted her head sideways in confusion and waited for Baron to get to the point. Baron rolled his shoulder and coughed a few times before opening his mouth.

"I think that I'm in love with you!"

Ella couldn't believe what she heard and looked at him in complete surprise, "Could you please repeat that?"

Baron sighed and said, "I am in love with you. I have been in love with you since the moment I saw you on the airplane. I thought I was never going to see you again, but then you appeared on the television because you were caught in a scandal with Taehyung. When we met later in July in person that evening, I couldn't be happier."

He paused to look Ella in her eyes. The only way Ella could describe the look in his eyes was sad while saying all of that.

"If I had known that Taehyung went to your room after dinner. To confess his feelings to you that night instead of going to the restroom as he told us he would then I probably had confessed to you before dinner," continued Baron and saw that Ella looked upset as if she had hurt his feelings, "Don't get me wrong. I'm very happy for both of you, and you look so happy together. Honestly, that is all I want, for you to be happy. I just needed to get this off my chest."

"Baron," said Ella while her eyes started tearing up, "I'm grateful that you confessed your feelings. Despite knowing that Tae is my boyfriend. However, at the moment, I'm happy."

Baron looked very apologetic, "I hope this is not going to change anything between us. As friends, I mean."

"Well, I don't want to lie, but I think it is going to be awkward at first before we can go back to the way it used to be," said Ella honestly, and deep down, she knew that Baron knew this was the truth. Even if he found it hard to accept.

She didn't want to make this any more awkward than that it already was, so Ella bid her goodbye and left the café, leaving Baron alone with his thoughts. She left the restaurant so fast that she didn't even see that he placed his head down on the table, muttering, "Why did I have to confess my feelings? She probably doesn't want to see me again after this."

Present

The closing of the car door shook Ella up from her thoughts and looked at who entered. To her surprise, it was only Taehyung who had taken a seat before the car took off towards the airport.

"Where are the others?"

"What are you disappointed to see me?" asked Taehyung while looking playfully upset.

Ella doesn't like seeing her boyfriend upset, despite knowing that he was joking, so she gave him a quick peck on the lips before saying, "Of course not! I just expected that they were going to be more members in the car as it can fit all of you in here, including my uncle and me."

"Manager suggested that we should arrive at the airport together as it is one of the first official times we are going to be seen as a couple. Some of the members of the security team are ahead of us to make sure we can arrive normally and the others, your uncle and Sejin are in the van behind us," said Tae while pointing out the said van and looked back at her.

Ella saw his eyes flash to her lips and bit her lip before flashing her eyes to his lips. They both looked up at the same time, knowing, precisely, what they want. It wasn't clear who leaned in first, but their lips met together in a sweet kiss. The golden glow started to emit again from their shoulders. However, like every kiss before this one, they didn't notice it. Too lost in each other to care about it.

The longer the kiss continued, the intenser it got. Giving the couple some privacy, the driver rolled up the window that separates him from them. Taehyung had placed his hands on her cheeks as their lips molded over one another. He pushed his tongue past her lips in search of her own. When they met, Ella signed into the kiss, and she felt Tae's lips curling upwards in a smile. Ella still doesn't know how a human can make her feel so light-headed while kissing and nothing more. Maybe it was because she was still a virgin and doesn't have the experience he does.

Almost the entire drive to the airport, their lips seemed to be finding each other. Even when they had stopped to catch their breath. It was either Taehyung or her who brought the other back into the kiss. Both of them tried to talk about everyday topics, but something pulled them back to their lips. Time and time again. Testing his limits, Taehyung decided to leave open-mouthed kisses along the left side of Ella's neck. Upon this never-felt before experience, Ella's breath hitched in her throat. Although he was enjoying the current situation very much, especially now that he learned that Ella was enjoying this, Taehyung's attention was caught by the driver, who was alerting them by coughing.

Much too Ella's disappointment Taehyung pulled back and said, "There is a time and place for that which you want right now, but that isn't now. I believe we have arrived at the airport."

Ella's face flushed beet red and calming down before saying, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Of course, you don't," said Taehyung, chuckling, who had already caught his breath, and extended his hand, "Are you ready?"

"Lead the way," answered Ella while taking his right hand, and he interlaced their fingers while opening the door.

Ella had somewhat expected there to be paparazzi upon them as soon as the exited the car. However, that was not the case. Sure enough, she saw some people with cameras at a distance snapping shots of them taking the luggage out of the trunk of the car and heading off to the entrance. Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw the other members following them at a distance happily chatting amongst themselves and to the camera they use for their 'vlogs.' Ella knows that they call their vlogs 'Bangtan Bombs' or 'BTS episode,' but she still compares it to vlogging since the cameras capture their daily life on tour. When Ella heard Tae call out to her by saying 'Jagi,' she turned back to him and saw one of their famous 'vlog' cameras in front of them.

"Did you hear what I said?" asked Taehyung, looking questioningly at her. Ella shook her head and said, "I'm afraid I didn't. Sorry."

"It's okay. I just told Army that we are very excited about the tour and can't wait to see them again and was wondering what you think about going on tour with us since it is going to be your first. I love it that we get to see all of her first experiences during this last part of the tour," said Taehyung while directing the last part of this sentence to their fans.

"I'm excited and nervous at the same time if that makes sense," answered Ella while looking Tae directly in the eye who nodded in response, "I have never seen you all on stage before. I'm excited to see what that is like. The experience that the ARMY has been exploding about on social media after every concert. I'm nervous about all the public events that I have to go to with you as your girlfriend and what they are going to think of me. Most of all, I just hope that I'm not going to embarrass you."

Ella looked away with very red cheeks as she finished that sentence and tried very hard not to look into the camera due to her camera-shyness. Jimin and Jungkook, who by now had caught up to them as Ella started walking slower while answering Tae's question, had overheard her answer and looked at each other with an understanding look in their eyes while nodding. Taehyung caught them in the corner of his eyes and winked at them, giving them the 'all-clear' they needed to respond to her statement.

"You could never embarrass us, Ella," said Jimin from behind her. Jungkook snickered cause Ella jumped from shock at his sudden voice, never seeing them catching up to Tae and her, "For starters, you are way too cute and beautiful to leave an embarrassing impression on somebody."

Jungkook finished their answer to her, "Secondly, we're pretty good at embarrassing ourselves in front of an entire stadium filled with fans or on live shows. So don't worry about it too much."

Ella looked at them gratefully for calming her nerves and felt Tae swing his arm around her waist, causing her to smile at him.

"They're right, you know. Just be yourself, and it will be fine, even if you embarrass us, or yourself. It shows the world even more that you are a human capable of making mistakes just like them," said her boyfriend while placing a kiss on her forehead and guided her to the waiting room of the terminal.

The camera that was filming them stayed behind to capture the other boys entering the waiting room and their conversations. Ella felt the nervousness fell off her shoulders and let out a shaky breath while collapsing on a nearby couch.

"Were you that nervous of being out in public?" asked Hobi, looking concerned at her.

"No, I wasn't as nervous about that as I expected I would be," answered Ella. She noticed that she had the attention of all the members on her, "I know from the preparation my uncle gave me for today that there would be cameras taking photos of, well, our arrival at the airport. I just wasn't prepared enough for having that camera in my face."

Ella pointed to one of the 'vlog' cameras while continuing, "I'm just not used to having my casual conversations being filmed. To me, it still kinda feels like an invasion of my privacy, I guess. On top of that, me being camera-shy also doesn't help."

At her vulnerability, Taehyung felt the need to comfort her and gave her a bear hug. Seeing her so small and different from what they're used to, it was Jimin who screamed, "GROUP HUG!"

Soon after that scream, arms were engulfing her, and Taehyung, who was still hugging her, in a giant hug and they stayed like that for a long time before slowly pulling away going off to do their own thing while waiting for the boarding call onto the plane.

As the wise leader who always knew what he had to say Namjoon found the exact words that Ella needed to hear at that moment, "We're just like you in the beginning, actually we're sometimes still like that, but with time and practice, you get used to it. You will even forget that the camera is there. What helped me is picturing that we are talking to a person instead of a camera. Maybe that will help you too. I just have a feeling that we, well mostly Tae, can help you overcome your camera-shyness. If we can't do it, then no-one can."

"Who knows," answered Ella while visibly relaxing in Tae's arms at the encouraging words Joonie just said and closed her eyes, slowly drifting off to dreamland.

She felt lips being placed on her forehead and Tae's husky voice wishing her a good nap while promising to wake her up when they had to board the plane. A smile graced her lips at his promise, knowing that he always stays faithful to his promises. At least, he has been up until now.

After a good half hour, Ella opened her eyes at the arms shaking her awake and was greeted by Jung Kook's face instead of her boyfriends.

"Good morning, sleepyhead. Tae asked me to wake you as he had to go to the lavatory. We've to board the plane soon," said Kook answering her unspoken question about where Tae was and extended his hand out to her.

Ella tiredly rubbed her eyes before taking JK's hand to help her up. Together in comfortable silence, they took off to the plane that was waiting for them. Just before Ella entered the airplane, she felt two arms sneaking around her waist, pulling her into a back hug and heard the culprit say, "Did you have a good nap? I wanted to wake you up earlier, but you looked so comfortable that I couldn't, and now I didn't have the chance because I needed to use the lavatory before take-off."

"My nap was great. Your chest is very comfortable to sleep on. I'm sure that there will be more chances for you to wake me up during this tour," responded Ella while giving him a wink, "I forgive you for breaking your promise of waking me up."

Taehyung felt the heat rise to his cheeks at her statement of feeling comfortable on his chest and said, "I hope you know that you're playing with fire. I know that I said there is a time and place for the activity I have on my mind right now, but I can only control myself for so long around you."

This caused Ella to choke on her spit as she took place at the left-window seat and pushed Taehyung in his chest out of embarrassment. Ella turned her head at the wrong time and was shaken to the bone as she saw her boyfriend's lustful gaze and continued his teasing in a whisper in her right ear, so he was sure on she could hear him.

"I have been wanting you ever since our first kiss. Wait, no, that's not true. I have been wanting you since I first saw looking so sexy in that green top and those shorts in front of our Gangnamdol."

"Stop it!" whisper-yelled Ella, only igniting Tae to continue his teasing licking the outside of her ear, causing Ella to let out a shaky breath before continuing, 'I've been wondering how good I can make you feel. How good you can make me feel. How amazing we can feel together when we give in to the pleasure and just let go. I don't want to wait until after the concert tomorrow. I want you now!"

By now, she was as red as a tomato, and Tae started to take pity on her and said, "But, I'll behave myself and wait until you are ready and then show you just how much you drive me crazy."

After Taehyung had finished what he wanted to say, he turned his attention to the right and started a conversation with Jimin giving Ella a chance to calm down from his teasing. Now being very happy that she had taken the window seat, Ella turned her head to the window. She watched the plane take off while smiling warmly at the thought that he was willing to wait for her to be ready but was thinking, 'This was going to be a long flight if he continued his teasing.'

They were 9 hours into the flight to Saudi Arabia and had another hour to go before their arrival. Ella had long forgotten Tae's earlier teasing and was laying comfortably with her head on Taehyung's chest while her boyfriend's fingers played with the ends of her hair.

Tae rested his head on top of hers as he held her against his chest in a hug. Taehyung muttered into the top of her head, "Your hair is getting long."

"Really? I didn't notice it," said Ella as she twirled a strand around her finger, "The last time I had it cut was in April. Maybe I should cut it?"

"You don't have to. I like it, but I just noticed it as I met you with your hair on your shoulders, and now it is hanging over them. See, it almost reaches to the half of your upper arm."

"Still, the ends could use a freshen up. Do you think one of the unnies could do it for me? They regularly cut your hair."

Jung Kook, who was sitting behind them, responded to her before Tae had the chance, "Maybe you should also color your hair. You can see your original blonde hair very clearly now. Although, that is also very beautiful."

Hearing this, Taehyung took a good look at her hair and indeed saw that her hair had grown out blonde. Tae opened his mouth to say something, but Ella was to fast and said, "I don't know, Kookie. Coloring is expensive, and I don't think your unnies would want to do that for free. It takes up quite a long time. Something which they probably don't have."

Jimin overheard them talking about hair-coloring and decided to join in on the conversation, "Perhaps you could go crazy and go an entirely different color. You know, to surprise ARMY like we do when we have a comeback. Well, one thing is for sure. You don't have to worry about noona not wanting to do that for you. I overheard them talking about it, and from what I heard, they were very excited if you would let them do it for you."

"Yah, an entirely different color! Jimin, have you lost your mind?" hearing her offended voice Jimin shied away into his seat, trying to hide his face while Jung Kook burst out laughing as he saw his hyungs reaction. Taehyung joined in with him.

"I think you keep forgetting that my hair is longer than yours. You don't want to know how long I have been thinking about going darker and regretting that I did it as it takes so long for my hair to grow out only this little blonde. Maybe I will ask the unnies to dye it back to blond for me? What do you think, Tae?" questioned Ella, who had ignored what happened around her and wanted to know her boyfriend's opinion.

Ella felt him nuzzle his head in her hair, muttering in it, "Long, short, brown or blonde, I don't care. You are always stunning. You should do what makes you happy, but surprise me with the result."

Appreciating his honest comment Ella turned her head upwards and slightly off his chest to give him a kiss. Jimin and Jung Kook were not done with the conversation yet, but the captain speaking over the intercom made it impossible for them to react as they had to put everything away and get ready for the landing.

Much to her disappointment Ella lifted her head off Tae's chest and fastened her seatbelt. Ella felt Tae taking her hand and laced their fingers together, showing that he was also disappointed that their cuddling had been cut short due to the landing. Ella felt content with the current situation and gave Tae's hand a little squeeze showing him that she felt upset too.

She felt Tae shift over to her and whisper in her ear, "I hope you're ready. After touchdown, you will really notice that the tour has begun."

Ella looked at him uneasily and felt her nervousness come back, sarcastically saying, "Yay! BTS tour, here I come!"

Tae snickered at her comment, earning a punch in his chest from Ella as she was mentally preparing herself for the worst.

Part 11 Why it is so f*cking hectic?
