But at the same time, he really enjoyed the outings with Jungkook.

Yes, Seokjin definitely wanted peace, because he was tired of being scrutinized. “Do you want to do that?” Jungkook asked point-blank. But these things always fade into the background until something new fuels it, so… if we lie low, it will likely go away for the time being…” “It’s… the whole issue, um, between us - it’s pretty blown up. Something funny, easily viral, and not too much of a big deal.” “Is it a problem? Should we do something?” It took a second for it to register in Jungkook’s brain. “Funny story… there’s a bunch of people who think I’m having an affair with my bodyguard. “No, no,” Seokjin said, sitting beside him, immediately feeling shy at their proximity. And with Jungkook’s insistence that they both go morning jogs - ‘You need to move, hyung, you don’t take care of yourself as well as I’d like’ - Seokjin was probably healthier than ever. Seokjin didn’t think he’d eaten this consistently well until now he was slowly gaining weight. They practically dined with three course meals every night. These days, he was particularly obsessed with Italian food. He’d been having fun experimenting on dishes - pulling out all the stops too, with flowers, sometimes candles. Since settling into Seokjin’s home, Jungkook had taken charge of the grocery-shopping and the cooking. “Hey! What’s up? You want me to cook dinner already?”

Jungkook paused his game and looked up at him with a smile. He went to the living room where Jungkook was sitting cross-legged on the floor, playing Hades on the PlayStation. And then he said he’ll post something to hopefully set things straight. Seokjin laughed nearly to death when one of his managers called him to inform him about it. And these photos always making their way into speculative articles confused them into thinking Seokjin was hooking up with his bodyguard. So when they saw Seokjin always photographed beside a tattooed man who was always in all-black and often wearing hats or sunglasses, they assumed he was security. This was due to the fact that many of Seokjin’s newer fans, who’d never been an ARMY, had no idea who Jungkook was. Because they thought Jungkook was his bodyguard. Not a single complaint.Īll these public appearances only fueled the flames, and while most people were trying to squash the rumors by saying they were merely good friends, there were persistent articles headlined, ‘Are they brothers or boyfriends?’ and ‘Jin and Jungkook spotted together in romantic Malibu outing after canceled wedding.’īut what Seokjin didn’t predict happening was a faction of people thinking he was having an affair with his bodyguard. Seokjin couldn’t believe Jungkook tolerated so many of his impulsive, childish, and borderline embarrassing schemes that day, but he did. That part was fun there were Superman capes and ice cream cakes and tuna songs involved. He dragged Seokjin to Malibu and sang gibberish to him while leisurely walking down the coastline. He got his damn hotdogs and bought Seokjin jellies, too. The problem was that Jungkook absolutely had no care about the chaos he just caused - and continued to cause - because he insisted on going around the city. Those weren’t the only misinformation going around, although the funniest one sprouted two weeks after they arrived in L.A. These were getting thousands of likes each. with him, I’m crying.’ And even, ‘Did Jin protest Jungkook’s wedding or what? I’m so confused about what's happening OMG.’ People were tweeting stuff like, ‘Everyone say thank you Kim Seokjin.’ And, ‘Jin heard about JK’s whirlwind engagement and said, that’s enough of that.’ And, ‘Jin really saw JK fucking around with his life and dragged him back to L.A. And of course every media outlet from Korea to America and every country in between were speculating on what went down. It was like ARMY was revived with a vengeance - not that they ever really disappeared - and with the overwhelming support came the fanwars. The public racket only got worse from there.
