The days following the incident comprising of Kenma witnessing Taehyung kissing me and Taehyung being all calm about it, were not so good.
My interactions with Kenma had been filled with awkwardness ever since that day.
I couldn't avoid Kenma obviously as we resided in the same place.
and I couldn't avoid Taehyung as well for the same reason again.
Taehyung would always bump into my shoulder intentionally and then give me his boxy-smile which I had to return with a happy, genuine smile myself. He naturally made me feel good, there's no denying that.
Where as Kenma started avoiding making eye contact with me and tried to talk to me as less as possible.
The fanmeets were always boring for me, the fans enjoyed talking to the members and watching them goofing around while I just had to collect what the fans brought for them and just sit and pass time till the fan meet was over.
Suddenly an idea popped in my head!
What if, I giggled to myself, yes that's exactly what I'm going to do!!
It's time that I too, made these occasions a source of enjoyment.

(The night before the next Fanmeet)
I danced my way to Namhyuk's room, humming a tune on my way, skipping steps.
"Namhyuk, may I come in?" I gently tapped twice on his door.
"Yes" He seemed distracted with all the album work. Sitting on a chair behind a computer surrounded with speakers and wires. They work so hard for everything, I'm so proud of being an orb.
Pushing away my thoughts I went straight to the point for what I was there for.
"Umm," I started "I need to go visit someone tomorrow so I won't be able to accompany you guys to the fanmeet" I shrugged as I said.
He stopped working at once and turned his chair towards me.
"Who do you have to visit?" he's inquisitiveness is going to ruin my plan.
Damn! What should I say now. I should've thought this through, what a dumbass person am I?
"umm..." I fumbled on my words "a friend of mine." That's all I could think of it.
"Is it necessary to visit her tomorrow itself and not any other day?" he now got up from his chair and started collecting his things, trying to put them in order. He's tall, I never noticed that before.
"umm yes, because" what should I say now....."because it's her birthday tomorrow". Yes that's it....." and I've never missed any of her birthdays, we're best friends you see." I smiled victoriously on coming up with a perfect excuse to escape.
"oh okay." he seemed slightly unbothered.
"What's her name anywa-" he dropped a speaker while talking to me. Great! Couldn't expect anything less from the 'God of destruction'.
I hurried forward to help him.
"Her name is Yuri" That's the best name you could come up with hikari, seriously, I thought to myself.
Yuri means a ghost in Japanese, I face palmed myself in my head.
"oh Yuri," he giggled a little "pretty name"
He knew I was faking it. I'm such a bad liar
"Okay then, you can go visit her." he smiled as he spoke, allowing for his beautiful dimples to appear.
"Be back before 7 though." He's so generous, I couldn't take it.
I rushed to hug him, and he hugged me too.
"Thanks a lot namhyuk." I looked up at him, he's so tall, repetitive thoughts, I flashed a wide smile at him.
"You should sleep, I'll clean this up" I said gently and motioned him to go to his room to sleep.
Soon after I finished cleaning, I started walking towards my room to doze off, when suddenly I felt someone tap on my shoulder.
I turned behind and then I was pinned on the wall by none other than Taehyung.
"Where are you going tomorrow" he seemed so serious. Wait how did he know?
"Were you eavesdropping?" I tilted my head as I spoke.
"umm..." he seemed flustered "I asked you something'' he avoided answering my question, but anyways it doesn't matter.
"I'm going to visit my friend, Yuri tomorrow." I said plainly "it's her birthday"
"Yuri?" he chuckled a little as he said. I should've said Yuki instead.
"Anyways, Can you not go after the Fansign?" his eyes sparkled with expectations.
But why does he want me to be there anyways? I just sit around there getting bored.
"We spend the entire day together on our birthdays. So I need to go early, but I'll be back by 7" I faked a cold look and pushed him off me.
I continued walking towards my room. He didn't try to finish the conversation or even stop me from going. I turned around to look at him, he was heading in the opposite direction, towards his own room.
It felt awful for doing this, but it was for his own good. After all tomorrow's gonna be an amazing day for me and maybe for them too.
He didn't even asking me much, but it's not like he's my boyfriend anyways.
