Just Like BTS Have Their Own Individual Playlists, Here Is Jennie's On Spotify

Just like BTS have their own individual playlists, here is Jennie's on Spotify

Reposting again, Jennie's Playlist <3 I think this was made back in 2017 when I was working on the story.

I didn't want to go overboard and put a bunch of songs but it looked like I did lmfao. Around 60 or so is more than enough in comparison to them having like 20 something songs.

I want to edit the JenKook playlist too.

If you're gonna do the drabble you honestly can't forget about the war of JenKook and JenLay(Jen×Lay Zhang from Exo) Everyone was really having a funny ship war of those two ships, it was hilarious 😂

Omg YES! Lmfaoooo I miss it so much 😂🙌🏾 that was a fun day. I still have all the ideas for it and would love to add it to the story! I can’t wait to go through all my documents and plan out everything.

This made my day and brought back some amazing memories. Thank youuuuu

The Bangtan Gal Chapter 11- We're Proud Of You

Chapter Summary: Jin helps Jennie when she has an unexpected period. Jennie has another annual event that she created and decides to just go alone without letting BTS know. Little does she know, she can't hide things from her boys and they'll always be there for her.

Words:  3,000+

Hissing in pain as a sharp cramp wakes her up, Jennie groans and slowly sits her, clenching her stomach.

"What the heck...?" She grumbled. Grabbing her phone, she read that it was Saturday, a little after 9:00 am. Throwing the covers off of her, she gasps in shock.

"Oh no..." She said in a tight voice, getting butterflies in her stomach.

Blood was stained on her bed sheets and so were her pajama pants. Quickly getting out of bed, she paced around, taking the scarf off her head that she slept with.

"What am I gonna do-what am I gonna do-what am I gonna do!?" She cried out in a hushed tone. 

She could not let the guys see her, like this. What would they think? Would they be weirded out? She had to clean this up fast. Hopefully, none of them were awake, yet.

Taking the bed sheets off her bed, she quietly walks out of her room, looking around for any of the members. When the coast was clear, she made her way to the laundry room. 

"Clean the sheets, then take a shower. Simple. They'll never notice." She sighed, opening up the washer.

"Is everything okay, sweetheart?"

A deep voice asked behind her. The voice made her flinch, dropping her bloody bed sheets. Slowly turning around, nervously, she looks at the person anxiously.

Of all people...it was Jin. Her whole body was starting to heat up. She really wanted to crawl into a hole, now. Was he going to scold her?

"J-Jin! What are you doing up so early?" She stammered.

"I was going to cook breakfast but heard something in the laundry room." He responded, looking down at the bed sheets curiously. He walked up to the sheets and picked them up. "Unexpected period?"

"Oh my God, this is so embarrassing...I'm sorry." She facepalmed but got a laugh from him.

"Don't be. Let me help you. Take a shower and get dressed. We'll go to the store so we can buy you the things you need."

"Wait, Seriously?" She looked at him, astonished. "You aren't weirded out?"

Smiling warmly, he shook his head. "Not at all! Now go shower! We gotta buy you things to help you with your period."

Sighing out of relief, she obeys, grateful to him. "Thank you so much, Jin."

Jin was so kind to her and so understanding.

After showering and getting dressed, placing some tissue paper to aid the bleeding temporarily, and eating breakfast, the two of them head to the supermarket. With Jennie pushing the cart, following a happy Jin around the store, and getting ingredients, they finally come across the pads.

"You don't feel embarrassed to be buying me pads?" She asked, placing two packs in the cart.

"Not in the slightest. I've dealt with this, before. Do you want any chocolate? Other snacks? To help?"

"Yes, please!"

After putting all the snacks she thought would help her with her period, Jin continues going through the aisles until the stack of magazines catches his eye. Smiling, he grabbed one magazine in particular and turned to Jen. 

"Did you see this, yet? You look great."

"Holy crap, I didn't think it would be out, so soon!" She grabbed the magazine to the page where she had a small interview for High Cut Magazine.

'Meet Miss Bangtan! The Bulletproof Girl Scout, Jennie!'

The picture had her jumping in midair with her trademark grin and arms up in the air, looking cute.

'Who Is Miss Bangtan?' Was another caption on the page.

The article talked about her being an African American female in a male K-Pop group in America and how she has been talked about even before BTS' debut. There were even sections of her interview with High Cut magazine.

They asked her 'What do you hope to accomplish here as a foreigner in South Korea?' and she responded with, 'To break all the boundaries while having a successful career, here. Break records with BTS and make new friends. I'm super excited with what's to come in my journey with BigHit Entertainment.'

She had been getting talked about more. Good and bad. Some thought it was a bad idea to put a girl from America in BTS, but once she proved her Korean skills, and how serious she was, her critics have been having a hard time. She hopes to continue to grow with BTS and prove the doubters wrong.

-----

On October 13th, in the practice room, with the lights off and candles lit on the cake that Jennie held, BTS surprised Jimin on his 19th birthday, singing Happy Birthday to him. He was overwhelmed with joy as he laughed. Once he blew out the candles, he was met with loud cheers and claps.

"Hahah, jeesh, don't hurt him!" Jennie laughed when the guys started smacking him on the back, along with Suga yelling for Jimin to cry.

"Faster cry! You have to cry!" J-Hope yelled while V grabbed Jimin from behind, yelling at him to get down on the floor.

"Wait! The chicken!" Jennie warned with a giggle. "The food!"

"Hey, the chicken! Chicken, chicken!" J-Hope grabbed the bag of chicken that was held by Jimin. "I'll return you, your chicken later."

"Don't forget about your cake!" Jennie presented it to him with both of her hands. It brought joy to her heart seeing the guys so happy, like this.

"Ah, it's pretty! Thank you." He happily said, holding the cake in one hand and covering his mouth with his other. "Ah, it's my bare face."

Glancing at him like he was insane, she playfully snapped at him. "Boy! If you don't hush! Your bare face is fine! Embrace that naturalness." She gave him a birthday smack on the back while he responded with giggles.

After taking out the candles on the cake, Jennie and the rest of the guys smear icing on Jimin's face before taking a group birthday photo with him.

On October 15th, Jennie told Bang PD about the traditional Singing Exhibit she had back in America and wanted to continue the tradition here in South Korea. Liking the idea, he allowed her to work on the project and planned to have 'Avid Vocals' in a small venue in Seoul. Once the information was out about it, ARMYs quickly planned on going, shocking her the most. She still wasn't used to the overwhelming support from the fans.

But having bad memories of her old group not going, she had asked Bang PD to keep 'Avid Vocals' from the rest of the BTS members since she didn't want to bother them. They would probably want to work on their dancing anyway. 

When it was October 18th, it was time for the free event. She stood up on the stage, looking around at how many people had come. Even nonfans of BTS came along just for the simple fact of singing. It filled her heart with joy.

"Wow! So many people! Hello!" She greeted. "Thank you so much for coming! This is the second annual Avid Vocals. I had the first one back in America, and it's an event where we come together to happily sing and have a great time. Whenever you can sing good or bad, just being here because you like to sing, is more than enough as we all support each other."

She was met with a big applause as she smiled, feeling her cheeks heat up. She didn't think over 170 people would show up. "I shall keep this short and simple. If you want to sing, there's a signup sheet, right here at the front. Pick any song, we'll get the instrumental, and that's that! Let's get this show on the road! Please enjoy the event!" She announced with even louder cheers. 

Once she got off the stage, performances started in 30 minutes. She took the time to meet and greet with some fans. Security guards had to make them form a line and give her some breathing space. She could hear fans cheering her name, and yelling that they loved her. It was touching. While taking autographs and pictures, she also had deep conversations with people about singing. Asking questions like, 'Why do you like to sing?' and 'Why do you like to listen to others sing?'

Hopefully, Bang PD will let her do this every year because this event seems to be going successfully.

There were a lot of Korean songs that Jennie was not so aware of when she heard people perform. She made mental notes to research and listen more to Korean music for future reference. An hour into the event, it was finally her turn. She grabs the guitar that she borrowed from Big Hit and sits on a stool, on the stage.

"I'm going to sing one of my favorite songs from America. I hope you all enjoy." She began strumming, playing the first few notes of She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5.

In addition to the first notes that she played, the crowd immediately knew what the song was and started cheering. Covering the song in a soft, gentle but strong voice, she happily sang her heart out. After she was done, the audience cheered loudly, but familiar voices caught her attention.

"JENNIE~!"

"YEAH! GO JENNIE!"

"WOO HOO!"

"GO ENNIE~"

"THAT'S MY GIRL!"

"WAHHH SHE'S SO GOOD~"

The sudden obnoxious whoops and cheers of BTS made her widen her eyes. Looking ahead, she could see them at the back, goofing all.

"No way..." She murmured to herself, in disbelief.

Jungkook's bunny smile...

Yoongi's gummy smile...

Hobi's goofy dancing...

Jimin's eye smile...

Tae's boxy grin...

Namjoon and Jin's weird yet unique dance moves...

Were they here, right now?

"G...guys?" She suddenly said on the mic, standing up. 

Some people started to turn around to see the members of BTS at the back. ARMYs quickly make their way to them while security guards manage to keep things safe and simple.

How the heck did they know she would be here?

Getting off stage and heading to the back, she waits for them backstage. Before she knew it, they finally found her.

"Ahhh how come you didn't tell us about this?" Namjoon playfully scolded.

"You did great!" Tae smiled, patting her head.

"Yeah. Nicely done. I liked your singing." Yoongi mentioned.

"Me too! Love the guitar playing!" Jungkook beamed.

"Jennie, you're really good at the guitar. We should play sometime!" Jin offered

J-Hope screamed, jumping up and down. "JENNIE~ How dare you not tell us! That was amazing!"

"YEAH! Why didn't you tell us!?" Jimin added.

Looking down with guilt, she sighed. "I...I thought you guys wouldn't be interested." She admitted

"Hey." Namjoon placed a hand on her shoulder as she raised her head, to look at him in the eyes. He smiled. "That's not true. It won't be true and it never will be true. We're a group, we stick together. We always support each other. You are the Bangtan Girl. You are a part of BTS, just like the rest of us. You know that. We're proud of you, Jennie."

Hot tears of joy formed in her eyes. Before she knew it, they were streaming down her face as she sniffed and turned away.

Jimin started laughing. "Ahhh she's crying!"

"YAH! Namjoon what was that!?" Tae playfully scolded.

"You made her cry! How dare you!?" Jin hit him.

"I-I didn't mean to! Oh my god, Jennie, I'm sorry!" Namjoon started stumbling over his words, trying to make her stop crying. "I'm sorry!"

But before he knew it, she wrapped her arms around his waist, giving him a big hug. "Thank you. Thank you, guys."

"Awwwweeeee." Jimin and Tae cooed, enjoying the cute scene in front of them.

Chuckling, Namjoon hugged her back. "Don't mention it,"

"AHHHH! GROUP HUG~" J-Hope yelled, happily wrapping his arms around the both of them.

"I wanna hug too!" Tae joined in, as the others followed suit.

"G-guys you're squishing me." Jennie groaned out.

"Embrace the love!" Tae giggled before they all let go while laughing.

Jin wiped the tears from her eyes and handed her a tissue. "Make sure to tell us when the next one is so we can come and support you. We may even sing ourselves."

"How'd you know I'd be here, anyway?" She looked on curiously.

"Bang PD told us!" Jungkook answered.

"Insane."

"I also saw fans tweeting, about it." J-Hope added. "And then I asked him, so then he told us."

"I'm glad he did. You guys are the best."

----

It was a special day for BTS as they were seated on stage for the ARMYs in a fan meeting. They were celebrating their 100 days and it was time to read their personal letters to the ARMYs. After some funny banter and sad music in the background to set the mood, as well as the dimmed lights, Rap Monster goes first to read his letter. Jennie, seated in between Suga and Jin, eagerly listens to his heartfelt letter.

"I am Rap Monster. When I look at ARMYs, these thoughts come up. I wonder if I've ever supported and cheered on someone so passionately. Looking back, I realized I used to live only caring for myself and I find that really embarrassing. Back then, expressing my feelings for another person was doing something I wouldn't even think about doing. I knew one way or another we would get hate, but meeting our ARMYs truly changed and is still changing my outlook on the world and my life. I learn so many things from you all every day. The thing that I'm most scared of is disappointing you all. It's because like I always say, without you all, I don't exist."

His words made everyone 'aw' as he let out a short chuckle. "ARMYs, there's a saying that if someone fulfills their dream, it becomes the dream of another. I want to be that kind of person. I want to be your dream. I think that's my role. Tomorrow will be better than today, and the day after that will be better than tomorrow. I, Rap Monster, will work towards being an artist and leader like that. I love you, all."

After everyone's applause, it was Suga's turn. "Hello, ARMYs. It's Suga. Thanks to our busy schedules, my body is always tired but meeting the ARMYs who cheer for us always gives me energy. ARMYs are the reason Bangtan exists. I'm not good at saying embarrassing things and I can't express my feelings easily but I trust that you all know how I feel. I love you, and thank you. ARMYs, I love you!"

When it was Jin's turn the ARMYs 'aw' when he started to tear up. 

"Truthfully, in the past, I never had much thought that this was enjoyable. When I think about it now, even while I was preparing to debut, I remember always wondering if this was really the right path for me and this prevented me from trying a lot of things. After meeting our ARMYs, I'm thankful because I'm smiling a lot more and have become a more positive person. I'll work hard from now on to make you all smile and show a better side of myself. Thank you."

Once Jin finished, it was J-Hope's turn to read his letter. "As a trainee, I always wondered when I'd be able to stand on stage and how it'd feel to hear the loud cheers from the people who genuinely like and support me. My fantasy became a reality and now I'm here, making music, receiving love from fans and working hard on promotions." He read.

"Truthfully, I can't believe it. I loved dancing so much, I didn't study and often left the house early in the morning to practice. After suffering for a long time, I finally got the chance to go to Seoul. The people who were the happiest for me were my parents. At that moment, my dad's smile..." He trailed off, tearing up while he was hit with a chorus of aws. Before everyone knew it, everyone started tearing up.

Jennie managed to fight back the tears, blinking quickly. "Ah, J-Hope, lower the intensity a bit and try reading it, again!" Suga spoke up on the mic, earning a few laughs to lighten up the mood.

After J-Hope pulled himself together, he continued reading. "More than anything, our ARMYs who love us, thanks to you all, I'm really, really thankful. To be honest, each day is tiring and difficult but I believe that the sole reason I can make it through is because of our ARMYs. I want to say thank you for always coming to cheer for us. Just like our lyrics, I want Bangtan to leave an imprint on the world. Our ARMYs, I love you." He smiled and wiped his tears with a tissue.

Before Jennie knew it, it was her turn as she looked down at her paper, taking a deep breath. "Ah...actually, I'm going to read from the heart." She set the paper down and looked up at the ARMYs as they whoa and cheered.

"Okay, Smartie. Trying to show off, I see." Suga said on his mic, as everyone laughed.

She let out a short, low chuckle before getting serious, and looking back at the crowd. "It's...hard for me to express my emotions. I try to keep them to myself and not really get too emotional, but when it comes to you all, I can't help but express my love and appreciation for how much support you've given me. My family..." She breathed out shakily and closed her eyes.

ARMYs aw and some yell, "We love you, Jennie~" and "Don't cry~ It's okay!"

"I'm so thankful for them for allowing me to do this..." She exhaled again and paused, looking down. "Sorry. This was much better in my head."

"You all right, smartie? Do you need some smarties?" Suga asked while everyone started to giggle.

"Ah, that would be great, actually." She turned to him.

"I brought them, just in case. Free of charge." He took one out of his pocket and handed it to her.

"Wow! This is the nicest he's been to me all day." She joked and popped one in her mouth. "Getting back on track, I just want to say that...my family has made a lot of sacrifices for me and I'm happy that they allowed me to be here today. Although I was only a trainee for a very short amount of time, I hope to inspire people with my singing and dancing."

"To be honest, not a lot of Americans can say that they were able to be a part of a K-Pop group, and I'm grateful that you all have given me the chance to prove how passionate I am about this opportunity." she continued. 

She'll never take this for granted. This has been such an amazing experience so far.

"Thank you for welcoming me with open arms, and allowing me to show you my strengths and weaknesses while in this awesome group. I will continue to stay positive and I hope you look forward to watching me grow. I will continue to work hard with BTS and get better every time I perform. Although I still have a lot to learn here in South Korea, I hope that you continue to support me through my accomplishments and struggles. I love you, all." The corners of her lips curled up into a bright smile as she bowed while everyone happily applauded and cheered for her.

"Hello, ARMYs. I'm the member in charge of attractiveness in the team, Jimin." He joked. "Maybe it's because we're still rookies but the promotions for our second album seem to be flying by so quickly. You all probably don't know this but as a trainee, I really didn't know if I'd ever get to debut. My training period was only a year and was one of the shortest out of all the members but..." He trailed off and covered his face with his letter.

"Jimin-ssi...yes. I...I don't know what to say to comfort you..." Suga spoke up to him while everyone laughed once again.

Pulling himself together, Jimin continued. "Really, I cried a lot, was exhausted and thought about giving up frequently. But after having debuted like this-ah, I'm sorry." His voice got shaky as he teared up.

"Please wait." Suga asked the ARMYs.

"Don't cry!" Jin added.

"Aw, Jimin..." Jennie looked on with a sad expression.

Pulling himself together again, Jimin spoke up, again. "It's so fun, amazing and dream-like that I can sing, dance, pose and act silly in front of you all. As the days pass by, I want to develop and show you all a better side of me. ARMYs, I hope for you to always be by our sides and watch us grow. To the ARMYs who love Bangtan and I, I love you all! Thank you!"

After the cheers, V was next. "Hello, how are you, all? I'm V from Bangtan, the group that has already reached their 100th day since debut. The fact that I'm a singer now, I still can't believe it. Everything is still fascinating and the fact that I can speak like this in front of our fans is exciting, difficult and makes me feel so many different emotions. There are still things that I don't know and are new to me but I'll work hard to improve and hope to become a Bangtan that ARMYs can be proud of. Our ARMYs, I love you." He smiled

"Jungkook, are you crying? Okay, the last member is Jungkook!" J-Hope announced

"Hello, I'm Jungkook. I try hard to tweet, post on the fan cafe, and write letters, but it's harder than I thought. To bare someone your honest self and true emotions, that's something I find really difficult to do. Having promoted up till now, I developed a small but big goal. I want to become a singer that can touch people with his voice and also to become such a singer that people can, without hesitating, proudly and being not embarrassed at all to say "I'm a fan of BTS!". You are all such an important existence to us, so I feel really upset when you say that you are sorry. I hope that we can be thankful for each other. I believe that as time goes on, we will continue to make memories together and will even be able to talk to each other simply by making eye contact. ARMYs, I really love you, all. Thank you."

After Jungkook's letter, J-Hope began to speak. "And like this, we will be wrapping up Bangtan Diary Ch. 1, Autumn. It was really...really...really touching. How was it? How about we get everyone to talk about how they felt?"

Jin went first. "First of all, I want to say that I'm sorry because I think that I'm the one who made the mood like this." He laughed. "I also want to say that every single thing our ARMYs say to us poses as a great strength. We'll be a Bangtan that will never disappoint you so please continue watching over us! Thank you!" He bowed.

"I love you and thank you." Jungkook said before he covered his face with his letter and ended up crying. Everyone aw'ed while Jennie started feeling her eyes sting as she fought back the tears.

"Ya'll really gon' make me ruin my makeup, today, huh?" She fanned herself as she tried to get rid of the developing tears in her eyes. Everyone ends up laughing at her comment while she cracks a smile herself. Her comment lightened up the mood as Jungkook pulled himself together.

"I always try to show that I love you all and am thankful but it's still extremely difficult," Jungkook mentioned. "But now I've managed to show a little bit of how I feel here, so...I love you." He wiped his tears with a tissue.

"Really while getting to be here like this, I think I've realized what kind of person I am and have to become." Rap Monster said. "ARMYs, we're really thankful that you exist. We'll work really, really hard. Thank you! Up till now, this was Bangtan." He stood up with the rest of the members.

"2,3!"

"Thank you!" The members of BTS bow.

The Bangtan Gal Chapter 2- The Debut

Chapter Summary: Jen continues to build friendships with her band members before they prepare to record their music videos and debut on stage. Jen starts to get sick for the first time in South Korea and tries to escape Jin's efforts to make her take medicine. Everyone celebrates Jungkook's birthday with a big surprise during the concept trailer filming. Rapmon steals Jen's donuts and is forced to go with her to the store to get more and ends up breaking something. BTS begin to film the NO music video as Jen's efforts are better than she expected for her part.

Words: 9,000+

----

Living in a dorm with all the guys was something Jennie had never experienced. She didn't know what to expect and admitted she was nervous about the whole situation. But over the next few days, she began to open up more and realized, they were all a goofy bunch.

Brothers.

Brothers that she always wanted.

During the next few weeks, Tae and Jen stayed away from the cameras while the rest of BTS filmed their Vlogs for their YouTube channel. Big Hit wanted them to be their secret members and be revealed once they shot their music videos. 

Before she knew it, it was time to film the No More Dream music video. For the music video, she wore black high-waisted pants and a Hood By Air crop top with a fishnet shirt under it. Her hair was put down instead of a ponytail. As she gets her face done by the makeup staff, a camera is in front of her for a Bangtan Bomb. She ends up waving at the camera with a smile.

'Miss Bangtan seems to be in good spirits' The caption said on the video.

After she was done getting her makeup done, she made her way over to where the shooting was starting. 

"Jennie! Come over here, we're about to do a cheer in front of the camera." Suga announced before Jimin and Jin pulled her to the group.

"So forward!" She laughed. 

They all put their hands on top of each other.

"3,2,1."

"FIGHTING!"

For the first part of the shooting, it went very well. They were all fluid with their dance moves and cues. Jennie had a blast and tried to keep a serious facial expression while filming. But she ended up goofing around with the rest of the guys, even attempting to dance battle with Jin and J-Hope.

"Individual shooting is up next." The director reminded them as they all get straightened up.

Afterward, Suga is first for his shooting as he sits on a bike, rapping his verse. On the side, Jennie chews on her bottom lip, watching Suga's shooting. She turns to the camera who is right next to her, filming her expressions. 

"A bit antsy." She laughed quietly. "He's really good. I love his rapping."

Moments later, a deep voice asked if she was nervous from behind. She turns to meet the sunglassed eyes of Namjoon and Jin. She smiles nervously in response as the makeup artist finishes her makeup and walks away. 

"Yes. I want to do well y'know?" she answered

"Don't worry, you'll deliver. Teamwork makes the dream work." Namjoon placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"Jennie. You're up." The Director called her as her stomach dropped.

"Oh boy. Wish me luck." She murmured and headed over to the filming location.

"She worries too much." Jin laughed 

"She really does. But she'll do fine." Namjoon replied

Jennie makes her way to the director as she bows. "First let's have you against the wall." The director guided her. "And...action!"

On cue, her demeanor changes as she gazes at the camera with attitude, rocking side to side.

geojitmariya you such a liar

See me see me ya neon wiseonjaya

wae jakku ddan gireul garae ya neona jalhae

jebal gangyohajin marajwo

(La la la la la)

"Cut! Let's try it again."

Jennie nodded and exhaled. Was she doing something wrong? She wanted to ask him but she didn't want him to get annoyed. If he got annoyed.

The camera turns to Rapmon who watches closely. "She's still timid, it's clear that she's nervous. I'm positive we can work on that. I'm looking forward to seeing her grow in BTS." He noted. "I believe she'll be a great Bangtan Girl."

"And...action!"

Jennie attempts to go for a more aggressive route while adding in a bit more Bangtan Girl charm while ruffling her hair on camera and using her arms.

"La la la la la."

"Ni ggumi mwoni ni ggumi mwoni mwoni."

She makes finger guns, shooting them at the camera.

"Good!" The director said as she let out a breath of relief and bows. BTS claps for her and cheers.

"She did well." Rapmon smiled and nodded in approval.

"Go Jennie!" V yelled and she high fived him as the camera caught them. "She did so well! I'm so proud of her." He hugged her and laughed.

"That was really fun!" She said in front of the camera before heading over to the school bus for another shooting. "I will continue to try my best."

After many more hours of shooting, the music video shoot was a success.

---

The next day was the Jacket Shooting. BTS and Jen get ready. Jen wore leather jeans with a hood by air shirt that was long sleeved and a black beanie over her curly hair.

"Photoshoot, woo hoo!" She cheered with Suga and Jimin who excitedly danced, very eager to shoot. She goes over to get a closer look at Jin who was taking photos for his shoot. 

"How'd your shooting go?" She asked RapMon who was with Jungkook.

"Ah, it went well. You looking forward to yours?" He asked.

"You know she is. She's been bouncing around and dancing all over the place." Jungkook pointed out, grinning widely.

"Um! You have too! I saw what you did to V! Don't put this all on me. You were goofing off too. Didn't you see him mess with V while he was napping?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Hyung, she's lying." Jungkook does his best to look innocent.

"Are you-are you kidding? I hope you're not believing him over me!" She looked baffled, turning to Rapmon.

"I dunno Jennie...I didn't see Jungkook goofing off at all. Only you." Rapmon crossed his arms, teasing her.

"Are you cereal!?" She exclaimed, throwing her arms up in the air.

"Are you cereal?!" Jungkook mocked her in a high-pitched voice before laughing with Rapmon.

"I can't stand you guys." She laughed with them and attempted to shove Jungkook lightly but he didn't budge.

"I will try my best for the photo shoot. I hope my facial expressions won't be too much." She explained to the camera.

"What do you mean?" Jungkook inquired.

"I, unfortunately, have a resting bitch face. So, people always think I'm mad when my face is relaxed. But for music videos like this where we gotta show swag and stuff like that. And you know..." She adjusted her shirt, brushed off her shoulder, and tried to look cool while the duo watched her. "It kind of works out."

'Rap Monster and Jungkook are not impressed.' The caption on the video says as she turns to them.

"What? Really? Wow. I see how it is." She turned to the camera. "I swear I'm a nice person. Don't judge the face. I'm not angry or mean! Promise!" She reassured

She hears her name getting called. "Fighting!" She shows two thumbs up at the camera before skipping away.

Jungkook ended up laughing at her cute antics while Rapmon face palmed. 

"What are we gonna do with her?" Rapmon shook his head and sighed.

After taking photos, Jennie was cleared and went to check them out as the camera was behind her.

"Ooh~ Nice! I look good, wow!" She turned to the camera and nodded in approval. "I can't believe I look like that. You ever feel like if you're making an expression, it feels weird and you think it looks weird? But when you take a picture with the expression, it looks cool? That's how I feel right now. I'm glad it was successful." She addressed with cheerfulness.

After the rest of the guys finish their shooting, they gather together for the group shooting while Jennie sits in the middle. Then they change as Suga, Jennie and Jungkook check out the group photos. 

"What do you think?" Jennie asked.

"I think that, overall, all of them are good." Suga responded as she nodded in agreement. He puts an arm around Jungkook. "Of course, I like Suga-ssi's photos the best." He bragged with a gummy smile on his face.

Jungkook and Jennie glance at each other before turning to Suga. 

"Really?" She let out of short laugh.

"What is this?" Jungkook laughed and turned to the camera. "Naturally Jungkook's turned out the best right?"

"Ha ha, no. My photos turned out the best." She grinned as he deadpans.

"Here, look at this person." He pointed to himself in the photo.

"And look at me." She pointed to herself in the picture.

"I had more swag." He narrowed his eyes at her, getting competitive.

"No, you didn't." She narrowed her eyes back

"Yes, I did."

"My facial expression was cooler than yours." She smirked.

Jungkook laughed sarcastically. "Ha! Ha! Ha! Lies!"

'Both Maknaes continue to bicker at each other.' Was the caption on the video while Jimin walked over to them.

"I don't know who he is but uwahh~ he's good looking." Jimin pointed to himself.

"I'll admit, he is pretty good looking." Jennie complimented 

"I said the same thing too," Jungkook added, earning a laugh from Jimin.

---

It was finally June 13th, 2013. Today was the day that BTS would debut. Jennie wasn't nervous yet as she tried to remain calm. She gathered around in a circle with the group while Rapmon went over what would be happening that day.

He is such a great leader. He cares and always looks out for everyone. She hopes to do well and make herself, her family, Big Hit and BTS proud of her efforts. While in the waiting room, Rapmon tries to practice, rapping in a deep voice and starts clearing his throat. J-Hope copies him after watching, earning a laugh from Jennie. Then Jungkook adds to the fun by copying him too.

"I hate him." Rapmon pointed to Jungkook. "Try to do it properly."

"Oh boy. He caught you now." Jen chimed in, amused at his antics. 

Jungkook tries it again but Rapmon says it's not similar and walks away.

After their shenanigans, they leave to go to a rehearsal and pre-recording as the nerves start to get to Jennie. They currently wore their shirts with their names on them. Jen grips the mic in her hand nervously as she waits for the cue.

"You look so nervous." Jimin chuckled lightly and held her shaking hands, to calm her down.

"I didn't mean to make it so obvious."

"You've performed in front of a crowd before. Much more than this in America."

"I know, I know..."

"Then what's getting you so shaken up?"

"I guess it's because I've never done anything like this. Here. In South Korea. I'm a foreigner. I just have questions in the back of my mind like, what will they think of me? Do they like how I'm speaking in Korean and pronouncing the words? Stuff like that."

"Hey, we all made it this far. We are all going to do well. Breathe in and breathe out. We got this. Don't worry too much. I'm sure they'll love you."

"Just like they'll love your abs, right?" She laughed with him.

"You dare bring my abs into this?" He playfully scolded before they headed to the stage.

The crowd cheers loudly as they are on stage in their beginning pose for No More Dream. As soon as she hears Rapmon's deep voice, the nervousness goes away and is replaced with seriousness.

To all the youngsters without dreams.

The crowd cheers for them and they all head backstage. She walks behind Suga who said on camera that it's so hot, thanks to the leather. 

"I almost gave myself whiplash. My head hurts." She walked past the camera.

Jin started crying because he was nervous and disappointed. The staff tries to help him by giving him tissue and fanning him. Everyone got changed for Bulletproof. After Jen is done, she goes near the stage to wait and sees Jin waiting as well.

"Y'know I cried too."

Her soft voice makes him turn to face her. "Really?"

"I cried when I first debuted with my former group in America. I was so scared...I messed up. Missed my cue. Everything. It was horrible." She groans, shaking her head at the unpleasant memory. "They gave me the 'She's just a kid' card, but still, I was the youngest and wanted to prove myself. That just because I was young, didn't mean I couldn't do this or that. I just learned from my mistakes and tried harder. I tried not to think about it too much. My emotions just got me during the debut."

Jin nodded. "You know one day we should look at your debut from America." He smiled as her eyes widened.

"Oh no. No no. I don't wanna look back at how cringe I was. Ugh. At least that got your mind off things." She smiled back at him.

"Thank you. That helped."

"Don't worry about it. Everything is going to be okay. Now let's do a good job with this performance." She beamed as the rest of BTS met up with them.

They manage to have a successful performance during the broadcasting without any big mistakes and go backstage with happy vibes. 

-----

Next Day they are at Music Bank and have a dry rehearsal before the show. And then head over to the prerecording. After the performance, they greet the director and fans. "Bangtan! Thank you! We will work hard!" Before bowing.

They head backstage. "We finished on the first try." Rapmon grins at the camera.

"That was scary," Suga commented before walking past the camera.

"So-so. So-so." Jungkook admited.

"I could've done better, so I'm giving myself a 65%. I hope to boost up that grade with the next performance." Jennie stayed positive and walked ahead.

Then it was time for their performance for their second debut performance.

Jennie gets in front of them, as she hears the crowd scream for her, taken aback by the sudden cheers but maintains focus on the performance.

Badda bing badda boom,

Hah!

Hearing the crowd scream and cheer for them made Jennie's heart flip as she waved and grinned at everyone before bowing. Things were going well for their debut.

-----

Backstage for another performance, Jin decided to become today's VJ and went around to visit the members of BTS, interviewing them before the live broadcast. Jennie just finished getting her makeup done and sat on the couch with Jimin, fanning herself. The heat was real backstage.

"Jennie~" Jin placed the camera on her before Jimin pushed the camera back to himself.

"Where are you going, we're having an interview. I'm in the middle of thinking..." Jimin laughed.

"You took too long, now I want to go to Jennie."

"But I wasn't done yet!"

"Jennie's cooler than you. So, I want to interview her." Jin sassed.

Jen laughed at their banter and looked at the camera when Jin placed it back on her. "Hi!" She waved.

"How are you, Jennie?" He asked in a casual tone.

"It's hot." She lets out a breath and continued to fan herself.

"It is. It really is. So, I heard you've been getting more fans recently. Specifically, male fans. What do you think?"

"Hehe, I'm flattered they're falling in love with my charm." She smiled.

"You look pretty today."

"Oh...so I don't look pretty every day?" She deadpanned.

Jin was taken aback at her sudden mood change as he started to stutter "U-uh-I-"

"Are you calling me ugly?" She gasped and placed a hand on her heart.

"I think he is. That was rude, Jin! My Jennie is beautiful!" Jimin played along.

"Whoa, whoa! Your Jennie?! She's my Jennie!" V said from across the room. "I knew her first!"

"So? She likes me more!" Jimin responded.

"Oh dear...I didn't realize I was a popular person." She raises her eyebrows at the camera while the two continue to bicker at each other.

"Jennie, are you still mad?" Jin questioned as she looked up at him.

"As a matter of fact, I am." She crossed her arms.

"Come on~ I didn't mean it!" He whined.

She giggled at his whining."Ah, I'm joking."

Jin frowned and pouted behind the camera. "You're mean!"

"It was a joke!" She exclaimed.

"Don't talk to me, anymore."

"Jin are you cereal, right now?" She looked at him in disbelief.

"You know what? You're pretty but you're not as pretty as me." He said with a mocking smile.

"Oh!" Jimin yelled, shocked at the sass.

The unexpected sass made her mouth fall open and her eyes widened, stunned at what he said. 

"You really gonna do a sister like that? I thought what we had was special! Oh, you think it's funny, huh?" She asked over Jin's goofy Ha-has. "You know what? I'm done! Leave!" She struggled to keep a straight face as she pointed to the door, making Jimin laugh out loud.

"Note to self, don't interview Jennie." Jin goes to Rap Monster.

Later, Jen approaches Jimin who was holding onto a lion doll, as a camera was on him for a Bangtan Bomb. He was trying to defend himself for not being childish, claiming the lion was just sitting where he was.

"Aw, that's so cute! Can I see it?" She happily held on to it and examined it. "This is so adorable, it's been a while since I've seen a stuffed animal. Look how nice and fluffy this thing is."

"It looks like V, doesn't it?" Jimin mentioned.

After looking at the lion and its fur, she nodded in agreement. "Dude, it does!" She said in amazement while V walked over.

Jimin takes the doll and presents it to V. Suddenly, he starts attacking Jimin with it as Jennie laughs. Afterward, Jimin tries to style the lion like V.

"Am I a kind lion?" V asked.

"What kind of lion, just a normal big lion." Jimin replied before giving it to V "There."

"What about the makeup?"

"Makeup??" Jimin let out a chuckle before he started putting powder on the lion. After he was done, he gave it to V.

V suddenly puts the lion in front of Jennie and makes it wave to her. "Hi! My name is V! What's your name?" He asked in a cute voice.

The sudden cuteness overload was too much for her to handle as she covered her face, feeling her face heat up. 

"Don't shy away!" He placed the lion on top of her head and made it dance on her head. "Rawr!" He made the lion playfully hit her and she started to laugh.

----

On the 23rd of July, before their performance, the group stood on stage with an MC for Simply K-Pop TV. From the loud cheers to the fans waving their fan signs with the members' names on them, Jennie was excited. She did a double take when she noticed her name on several fan signs. She had to blink quickly to avoid tears coming from her eyes as joy took over.

Nonetheless, she smiled and waved at the crowd as the MC announced BTS in English. 

"So how long has it been since you debuted?" The MC asked.

"It's been about a month," Suga answered in Korean.

"One month? Wow. Well, your popularity is going through the roof, nowadays. How does it feel?"

Jennie raised her mic to speak. "I think it's awesome!" She answered in English. "Seeing our names on the signs right now that our fans created, it's astonishing. I was trying not to tear up when I saw my name on some of the signs. We're grateful for the support."

"Yeah, we're either at the studio, at home or at broadcasting stations, so we haven't experienced much of it. But as Jennie said, we're always grateful for fans who come to support us." Jin added

"Yes with all the love and attention you're getting, I'm sure your fans have a lot of questions. That's why we have a Q&A ready for you guys. Who has the first question?" The MC goes to a fan.

"Hello. How long was your training before you debuted? And did you expect this kind of popularity?" A fan named Nima from the UK asked, in her British accent.

"The training period, the longest for me is like three years, Jimin had one year. The shortest was Jennie's. She trained for almost six months. The average is around 2 years or 2.5 years." Rap Monster answered in English.

"Oh yeah, the training for me was a bit hectic. Although I had the shortest amount of training, I had to really work hard and push myself. As well as adjust to the Korean culture. I had a tough time using chopsticks for a while. I should've learned before I came here." She giggled in embarrassment as the crowd laughed with her.

"She's using them properly now!" Rap Monster added with a smile, earning applause.

Jen shot a thumbs up. "I had a lot of support from everyone as they guided me. I spent more hours training as well and made sure to catch up on anything. Also, to rest. I haven't overworked myself, Mom, I know you're watching." She waved to the camera.

Rap Monster nodded. "For our debut, we don't really realize any popularity now but thanks, we are so thankful for all the love and our fans. So thank you very much."

"Wow, your English is very good." The MC praised Rap Monster. "Next question."

The next question was from a girl named Imani from America. "This question is for Jennie. First off, I just want to say, I LOVE you. I think it's so cool that you're the only girl in BTS and everything."

"Awe, thank you." She felt her face beginning to heat up before blowing her a kiss.

"Your Korean is so impressive at your young age. How long have you been studying and are you fluent?"

"I'll answer in Korean then English." She said before turning to Korean. "K-Pop inspired me to learn Korean. I've listened to 2NE1, Wonder Girls and Big Bang. Their music inspired me to want to get into this industry. The music, the dancing, everything is so lit over here in South Korea. I love it! I love how passionate everyone is here. As for the language, I've been studying since I was 13. Man, it was hard. I mean, I tried to study a few hours a day. And now I'm 15 in America, and I guess I'm...17 in Korea right?" She turned to her groupmates who nodded and smiled in response.

"Same age as Jungkook." J-Hope commented.

She continued in English, "So that's pretty interesting as well. I think my hard work is paying off. No language barriers or anything. I'm happy I can communicate with everyone here. I'm not fluent yet. But I know more than just the basics and I will continue learning." 

A girl named Moon So-hyun from Korea asked, "There's a variety of genres on your album. Besides the title track, which is your favorite song?"

"Like it is an awesome song on our album." J-Hope smiled. "It has witty lyrics about love. It's really great."

"Can we hear a little bit of the song?" The MC asked, earning screams and cheers from the crowd.

"Neon nami doego ohiryeo deo joha boyeo pretty woman." Jungkook angelically sang with a smile, earning cheers afterward.

"Woo! All right thank you BTS for your time."

-----

After arriving back at the dorm, everyone relaxes as Jin starts to prepare dinner in the kitchen. Everyone was doing their own thing while Jennie chilled on the couch in the living room, playing random games on her phone that Jungkook got her into. She couldn't help but notice her throat getting scratchy all day as she kept coughing every few minutes. The teen didn't think much of it as she assumed the cough would go away in the morning and her throat was just dry. Little did she know, Jin had observed her all day whenever she coughed.

Finally, after 15 minutes went by, he had to see what was wrong.

"Are you okay, Jennie?" He left the kitchen to see her.

The sound of his voice made her look up at him as she cleared her throat. "Eh, I think I might be getting sick or something. My throat is a bit scratchy. But I'll be fine."

"Nothing that I can't fix. I'll make some tea."

Smiling politely, she declined. "It's fine. Thank you an-"

*Cough* *Cough*

She sighed in annoyance. The cough just wouldn't go away. Why did she have to start coughing now? Right when they were promoting?

"We have some cough medicine." Jin happily announced.

The sound of medicine made her widen her eyes. She wasn't into taking medicine, she couldn't stand the taste. 

"What? I don't wanna take medicine, it's gross!" She shook her head frequently, trying to talk him out of it.

"Come on, it'll make you feel better, so you won't feel lousy while we're promoting." 

"I think maybe I just need to drink some water." She grabbed a water bottle from the kitchen and drank a few sips on the couch. "There. No more coughing." She guaranteed and went about her business.

Jin crossed his arms and murmured a countdown in a low voice "...four...three...two...one."

*Cough* *Cough*

"No more coughing, huh?" He grabbed a bottle of liquid cough medicine out of the cabinet and poured the medicine into the small plastic cup for her. Sitting down next to her on the couch, he smiled warmly. "Come on. And we have a mask for you to wear too, when we go out."

"You're so persistent. Jin, I'm fine. Guys, tell him that I'm fine." She pleaded to Jimin and Namjoon who were also in the living room.

"I think you should take the medicine, Jen." Jimin responded as Namjoon nodded in agreement, his face glued to his phone.

"You heard the gentlemen. Come on. One big gulp and it'll be all over." Jin advised in a motherly tone and tried to hand the medicine to her but she stubbornly scoots away, shaking her head.

"Uh uh! Jin, I am not taking any of that. No meds, I'll be fine!" She exclaimed.

Why was he so persistent in making her take medicine? It was just a little cough.

Why was he staring at her like that?

He looked so worried.

Why is he so worried?

Jin frowned at her refusal. "Jennie you have to take the medicine. It'll help you. I don't want your upcoming sickness to get worse. If you fight it now, you'll knock it out before it even starts."

"I don't wanna!" She huffed and crossed her arms, looking away.

Namjoon snickered at her response while Jimin eagerly watched the two bicker, enjoying the show. 

Jin blinked at her and paused. Slowly, he set the medicine down on the table.

No one sasses Jin.

No one.

"That's it. Hold her down." He told Namjoon and Jimin as they got up from their seats.

"Wh-wait a sec-HEY!" She shrieked as she felt strong hands grabbing both of her arms, dragging her off the couch and onto the floor. "WAIT! WAIT!" She started kicking and yelling, attempting to fight off their strong grips as they continued to latch on to her. Before she knew it, they pinned her arms to the floor.

"Get off of me!" She grunted and tried to kick all over the place.

"I am a good person!"

"I have rights!"

"I don't deserve this!"

All her pleas were ignored and laughed at as Jimin and Namjoon continued to restrain her.

"Yah! Jennie just take the medicine!" Jimin giggled as he tried to keep a strong grip.

"Never!" She yelled. "I recycle damn it!"

Jen could hear the loud laughter coming from Tae, Suga, J-Hope and Jungkook in the background while struggling to escape her fate.

"Ennie is not backing down." Tae giggled.

"Hobi I need help here!" Jin cried as Hobi quickly grabbed onto her kicking legs. 

She manages to kick him on the side of his head, pushing him away, earning louder laughs from everyone.

"Ow!" He laughed, rubbing the side of his head. "That was mean!"

"I'm sorry! I meant to kick at your chest!" She exclaimed while trying to toss and turn away.

"I got her!" Namjoon sat behind her, holding her arms from behind with Jimin.

Jin gets off the couch and sits on his knees with the medicine cap in his hands. There was no way in the world he was going to let her get sick if there was a way he could help her get rid of it quickly.

"Open your mouth." Jin demanded.

"No!" Jennie opposed.

"Jennie, open-your-mouth."

"I don't wanna! I'll drink orange juice!"

"You'll drink orange juice after taking the medicine!"

"No!"

"Someone tickle her!" Jin urged as Jungkook and Tae began to attack her with tickles on her stomach. She started laughing out loud, squirming all over the place. 

Seeing an opening, Jin lifts her chin and pours the medicine down her throat.

Thus, she quickly swallows the bitterness and gags. "Ugh! Gross!"

Jin grinned in victory. "That wasn't so bad."

"I can't stand you guys." She grumbled with a sigh of irritation, earning smiles from all of them.

"We love you, too!" Taehyung said with a boxy smile.

"We're done, right? Can you all let go of me?" She asked

"We're not done yet. You need to eat soup. Continue holding her until I heat the chicken noodle soup." Jin went to the kitchen to prepare.

"Awe come on!" She whined.

After a couple of minutes, Jin comes back with a bowl of soup and kneels before her. He picks up a spoonful and blows on it a couple of times. 

"Jin, I'm not hungry!" She groaned.

"We don't want our Jennie to continue being sick, so we're going to take care of you. Now come on, eat up." He responded while the rest of the guys nodded in agreement, gathering around her.

Jennie looked at each one of them. She was touched by how worried they were and how eager they looked to help her feel better. She let out a breath as her mouth curved into a smile. 

"Okay..." She said as they cheered. "Can I eat crackers with the soup?"

Jungkook stood up and bowed. "Your wish is my command, Milady."

She giggled softly at his dorkiness. Jungkook grabs a box of crackers from the kitchen and tosses them to Tae who presents them to her dramatically. "Ta-da!"

She gets let go as Jin feeds her a spoonful of soup. "I can eat myself you know." 

Jin placed a hand on her forehead. "You don't have a fever thankfully. Now eat up. Eat everything. And make sure to drink the broth. That'll help too."

"Thanks, mom." she teased him.

Jin smiled at the nickname and patted her head. "You're welcome, sweetheart."

After she finished eating, they led her to her bedroom. 

"Thanks guys." She sighed in contentment, laying comfortably on her bed while J-Hope placed a blanket on her.

"Rest up. You should feel better tomorrow in no time." Jin mentioned, looking relieved that she took the medicine and ate soup to help.

"Do you need anything else?" Jimin questioned.

"Want me to read you a bedtime story?" Namjoon offered.

"I could sing you to sleep!" Jungkook added.

"I could rap you to sleep." Suga shrugged.

"NO!" The boys exclaimed to Suga, earning an annoyed look from him.

The Daegu rapper scoffed at the guys, "Well, screw you guys..."

"I'll listen to you rap another time, Suga." Jennie answered.

"Rapping will never make her go to sleep." Jin sighed

"You don't know that." Suga argued.

"Guys, I appreciate it but I'm fine. I'm just going to sleep. I'll take up your offers another time."

She snuggled under the covers, already feeling sleep taking over her. She heard whispers of them saying good night as her light was turned off before they left the room.

On July 27th, on Show Champion backstage, BTS and Jen assemble for their dance diet method. The eight of them stand before the camera, already in their outfits for their upcoming performance.

"Summer Special episode Show Champion's diet dance. First, basic moves for warm up." Suga addressed the camera.

'Stretch your arms and shoulders'

All of them stretch obnoxiously while Jennie deadpans, watching them instead of stretching. Moments later, she attempts not to laugh at them.

"Second, learn choreography for dieting." Suga continued.

"Who's teaching?" Rap Monster asked

"I'll be teaching." Jungkook demonstrated as he grabbed onto his pants. "Grab your pants and ride the rhythm."

"Five, six, seven, eight!" J-Hope announced as all of them but Jennie began stomping around obnoxiously. "This will consume many calories."

"Ah~ the diet's working." Jimin added.

Jennie facepalmed at the sight. "I don't know them!" She called out, making everyone laugh.

"Come on Jennie, do it! It's healthy!" J-Hope grabbed onto her.

"Do it, Jennie! It's fun!" Jin encouraged.

"Jennie! Jennie! Jennie!" The guys chant

"Okay! Okay!" She sighed in defeat, earning loud whoops and cheers.

They put some music on as they all begin stretching first. The Bangtan Girl starts to get into it, stretching goofily. Subsequently, she grabs onto her pants and starts stomping around.

"Look at her go!" Rapmon said with a laugh.

"Go Jennie! Go Jennie!" Jin cheered as she started to laugh with them.

"Okay, this is pretty fun!" She beamed.

"That's the spirit!" Jimin cheered.

Afterwards, they all start rocking their elbows, while turning around in a circle. Jennie couldn't help but feel free and in good spirits when she was around the guys. They were weird, and so was she.

----

It was July 31st and Jin decided to be the VJ again for another quick Bangtan Bomb. He goes to Suga, V and then J-Hope, before approaching Jennie who was getting her makeup done. 

"Jen~" Jin happily greeted, placing the camera in front of her.

"Hey!" She greeted in English with a bright smile, waving to the camera.

"How are you, Jennie?"

"I'm-"

"WELL, we're out of time!" He yelled and moved the camera away.

"You know what-" She stood up and tried to hit him but he jumped away with a giggle, escaping her wrath. "Jerk!"

'August 18th, Music Kan Star Date'

For the interview, Jennie sits in between Suga and Jungkook while Jimin also sits in a chair next to Jungkook. Meanwhile, Jin, V, Rap Monster and J-Hope stand behind them.

"To all the viewers of KNT TV, 2, 3. Bang~tan! Hello we're BTS!" The group greeted and bowed.

'The hip hop idols who deliver a message to the youths who have no hope and are lost. Their protagonist is Bulletproof Girl and Boy Scouts, who on the stage show a very powerful and intense performance. A fun date with the energetic and dynamic Bulletproof Girl and Boy Scouts. Let's watch it immediately!'

'How did the group name come about?'

"Yes, 'Bangtan' has a definition of being bullet-proof. So, discriminations and judgments being shot like bullets, we're going to deflect them off like a bulletproof vest and stand up proudly for what we believe in." J-Hope answered as Jennie nodded at his answer. "Our team name upholds a meaning like that."

'Introduce your title track 'No More Dream'

"Our title track 'No More Dream' is a hip hop song that followed after a form of gangster hip hop bass genre that was famous in its existence in the 1990s. You might know it when you listen to the song. There's a part where we question 'Hey you what's your dream'. Right now there are a lot of teens who just live their life each day, going to school and coming back, with little purpose and dreams." Rap Monster mentioned. "So this is where we ask these teens, 'Hey what's your dream?' 'Quickly find your dream', it's a song that speaks of such meaning."

Suddenly Jimin stands up to demonstrate the dance.

"Five, six, seven, eight. La, La, La, La~ La~" Jennie and the rest of BTS sing while Jimin does his dance, lifting his shirt.

"Oh my gosh..." She giggled at the sight.

'Thoughts on debuting?'

"Well, firstly we are definitely majorly happy. It has been half-anticipation and half-nerve wrecking. But with all of that aside, getting to release my dream in three years of preparation, really I'm so so glad." Rap Monster grinned

"I second that!" Jennie raised her hand. "To be honest, I wasn't expecting this at all, being here in this moment. All that hard work is paying off. Dreams can really come true when you set your mind to it and work for it. I believe we did really well on our debut. We're doing well."

'Thoughts on your explosion of popularity?'

"Because there's people who like us, and are our fans, I'm really happy. And also at broadcasting stations where they follow and sing our songs together with us, the energetic cheering and support. To receive all that, up till now it still is so weird and much fascinating." J-Hope replied.

"Yeah, I also think it's really humbling. I'm still in shock with the support we've been receiving from our fans. It's amazing." Jennie beamed.

"Also whenever we end a performance and as soon as we leave the stage, we check the real-time searches to release that BTS has gone up the search rankings. It was too fascinating to see that so I screen captured it right away." Jimin grinned. "To go back to seeing it again, it makes me really happy."

'How does it feel being the only girl in BTS?'

Jennie was pondering while the question was asked and then she saw all eyes on her. She turned and looked around. 

"What?" She stuttered and felt her face heat up as everyone laughed. "Oh wait what was the question? I'm sorry!" She bowed

"Miss Bangtan~" J-Hope cheered with the rest of the boys

She laughed and then answered, "Well it's really interesting to be around these cool guys and working with them on dancing and music and living with them. They're amazing to be around, I love them."

"Aw~" BTS replied with big smiles on their faces. "We love you too."

"I hope to improve while being a member of BTS and I also wanna show the female empowerment in youth as well. And I hope to show that in our music and future songs. I most definitely want to sing lyrics about female empowerment and just female confidence in general."

'Show us your charms!'

"Yes, I'll have a go at it, please hold my mic." Jimin gave the mic to Jungkook before gazing at the camera. "Please love BTS a lot!" He put up two finger hearts and made a quick heart with his hands before pointing at the camera.

Jennie looked at him like he was crazy, widening her eyes. "Oh boy...." She murmured, placing a hand on her forehead while the rest of BTS groaned and looked away.

"Ah, what do we do about this?" Jin asked

"Thanks to Jimin I think I might freeze to death." J-Hope said

"I'm sorry that was embarrassing." Jimin grinned sheepishly. "Ah not me but our V, his gaze is not to be reckoned with too. Let's have you throw a gaze for once."

V looked at the camera. "It'll be cooler with a close up shot. I'll go for it." He gazed at the camera. "I love you~"

"Oh my God!" the guys exclaimed and start freaking out while Jennie buried her face in her hands.

'The members who got embarrassed because of V!?'

Rap Monster was the next charmer as J-Hope began to beatbox. "Yo. What's up? Kan TV, Yeah. Bangtan sonyeondan. Yo, yeah. Uh, Rap Monster together with my sexy voice. A single time of my rap has the girls talking. I'm a smart guy who knows how to study 1 percentile of the country, IQ 148, I'm a guy who does what needs to be done." He rapped as Jennie moved her head, rocking to the beat and his rap. "And right now where I'm at, it's with Bangtan. Wherever we go we hear gratitude. People see us and go shit! What the~"

"Woo~" BTS clapped and cheered for him.

"That was fire!" Jennie cheered

'As expected from the main rapper Rap Monster'

'What does hip hop mean to BTS?'

"It's a genre of music we really like and can do really well in. And hip hop has become the best way for me and for us to express ourselves. In the future too we'll express things in this manner." Rap Monster answers

'Your ultimate goal?'

"As musicians, inevitably our ultimate goal would be for us to make good music." Suga answered. "And for the public to acknowledge and enjoy our good music, wouldn't that be our ultimate goal? And to be honest, as singers to be able to make good music and share it with others. That would be the biggest form of happiness." He revealed his gummy smile.

'Future plan of activities?'

"Following our debut on the 10th of June, we have many promotional activities planned out. And we have a blog so we'll be updating regularly on our blog with unreleased songs as well. With such a drive, we'll be working hard." Rapmon grins. "To all the viewers of KNT TV, I don't know if you had fun watching us. As much as BTS has come out as a hip hop team, we'll become a team that loves hip hop and enjoys much through hip hop. Up till now it has been BTS! 2! 3!"

"Thank you!" BTS bowed

On August 31st, Jennie, BTS and the rest of the staff plan to surprise Jungkook for his upcoming birthday. Everyone but Jungkook, who was filming an individual lip sync, was in the Waiting Room to coordinate the surprise for his birthday party.

Jennie had to stop smiling so hard. She was so excited. It always brought joy to her heart to celebrate her friend's birthdays. She couldn't wait to see the look on his face when she and everyone else surprise him. Later on, everyone begins to film for the BTS concept trailer, the Director announces Jungkook to make sure he gets the center right as the group talks to the dance teacher and manager.

V and Jennie turn around as they grin big at each other. "I'm really trying to keep my emotions in check!" She whispered in excitement, earning a soft giggle from him.

After the filming, Jungkook gets lectured by Rap Monster and the manager about his dancing as he's oblivious to their acting. It was hard to see Jungkook get lectured like that, especially for ten minutes while everyone was trying to prepare for his surprise.

"You just have to do it well." Jin said as soon as the manager left the room. Jungkook was looking bummed after getting lectures. It made Jennie frown a bit.

"Jungkook, are you mad cause we didn't celebrate your birthday?" Rap Mon asks

"No, no..." Jungkook answered in a soft tone.

"You were in the wrong. You kept joking around as well." Suga lectured. "Since we were filming, you should've stopped. There must be a stop somewhere."

"As a leader...have I done anything to you?" Rap Monster asked him.

"No." The Golden Maknae answered

"You usually do well."

Afterwards, one by one, the members leave the room, while Suga holds the cake, ready to enter the room again to meet Jungkook while the lights are turned off.

"Happy birthday to you~ happy birthday to you!" Everyone sings as they walk up to a dumbfounded Jungkook as he looks around. Jennie and the rest of BTS clap and gather around him as Jungkook starts to cry.

"Our dearest Jeon Jungkook~ happy birthday to you~!" Everyone sings before Jungkook kneels down while everyone pats him on the back. "WOO~"

"Oh my God, he's crying!" Jennie exclaimed with a laugh with the rest of BTS.

"He's crying!? Why are you crying!?" Jungkook was asked as he finally stood up. 

Teary eyed, Jungkook finally blows out the candles as everyone cheers. The manager finally came in to apologize and wish him a happy birthday.

"Thank you for being born!" J-Hope cheered, earning a couple of laughs

"Say some of your thoughts!" Rap Monster suggested to Jungkook as he adjusts his birthday hat

"Producer-nim you're mean..." He replied, earning more laughs from everyone.

Bangtan take a group birthday photo before teasing Jungkook some more on his big day.

"Ah acting...I thought it was for real!" Jungkook mentioned

"We fooled you good, didn't we?" Jennie nudged him earning a chuckle from him

After filming, the group headed back into the dorm. Jennie rummaged through her closet to pick up a wrapped up gift for Jungkook. She enjoyed giving people presents, and tried to be observant when it came to gift buying. Leaving her room, she knocked on Jungkook's door. She heard a 'Come in!' and opened the door. 

"Hey, Jennie!" He happily grinned at her.

"Hey! Happy Birthday! Open up!" She sat on his bed and handed him the big rectangular gift. His eyes widen at the sight.

"This is for me?" He looked up to meet her eyes.

"Uh huh." She replied softly.

"Wow...Jennie, you're awesome."

"I hope you like it. Sorry, I didn't get a card."

"Just a gift in general from you is more than enough." He smiled softly before tearing the wrapping paper. "No way..."

She started to feel her face heat up, hoping that he liked his gift. 

"I...remembered you telling me how much you like to draw...and I watched you draw backstage before a performance, so...I decided to buy you a nice, big sketchbook."

"Jennie..."

"I-is it too much? Is it too big? Too small?"

"No. It's perfect."

"Re-really?"

"Thank you so much." He placed the sketchbook down before scooting over to hug her. He was often shy around girls, but she was one of his great friends and their friendship was only growing every day. He looked forward to buying her a gift as well for her upcoming birthday.

Wrapping her arms around him to return the warm hug, she was overjoyed. "Don't mention it."

----

The next day, in the afternoon, Jennie had been craving her cute looking donuts that she purchased from a local Korean Dunkin' Donuts after taking a walk around a local park, in the nice summer breeze. 

"Jennie! You're back! How was your walk?" Jungkook happily greeted as he played video games with Jimin in the living room.

"Hey, guys. It's so nice out there! The walk was great. Now on to the donuts!" She headed into the kitchen and went into the fridge. Weirdly, she couldn't find her Dunkin Donuts bag in the fridge.

Maybe she was overlooking.

She took her time, searching all over the fridge but failed to find her donuts. "Where are my donuts!?" She exclaimed in English.

"What?" Jimin looked confused.

"Where are my donuts!? I want my donuts!" She started to get annoyed. "I swear...if someone took my donuts..." She grumbles, ignoring the confused looks from Jimin and Jungkook who had no clue what she was saying in her native language. She lets out a breath before going back to Korean. "My donuts. Someone took them. I can't find them in the fridge."

Realization hit the two boys before they averted their eyes and went back to their game. 

"I saw that look! What do you two know?" She asked as Namjoon walked into the kitchen to grab a bottle of water. 

"Namjoon. Did you take my donuts?" Jennie questions him in English.

"They're safe." He replied to her.

"Oh? And where may they be? And why did you touch them?" She narrowed her eyes dangerously at him, but he remained unfazed. A grin came across his face as he let out a chuckle. "Nam...Joon. Where-are-my-donuts?"

"Safe."

"Bish where?"

"In my stomach-"

"YOU SON OF A BISCUIT!" She yelled and started to grab him into a headlock as he let out a loud laugh. They stumble out of the kitchen and fall on the floor, wrestling each other as Jungkook and Jimin watch and cheer.

The loud noises caused Tae, Suga, J-Hope and Jin to come out of their rooms to see what was going on.

"NO FIGHTING!" Jin yelled as tried to break it up, while the rest laughed and cheered for either Jennie or Namjoon. "We are NOT doing this today!"

After a moment of wrestling, they were finally broken up as Jennie explained the situation to Jin. Thankfully things went in her favor when Jin ordered Namjoon to go to the store with her to get some donuts. A reluctant Namjoon went and paid for Jennie as she got all the Dunkin' Donuts she wanted, which was much more than what he had eaten and then they went to the supermarket.

"Do you even know what you're getting?" Namjoon asked as he pushed the cart behind her while they walked in different aisles before walking to where the drinks were.

"Nope!" She grinned, earning a groan from him.

Namjoon left the cart before grabbing two glass bottles. "Hey, wanna watch me juggle?"

"Have you juggled before?"

"Not really." He shrugged.

"I don't think that's a good idea." She warned.

"What's the worst that can happen?"

Jennie let out a sigh. She heard from J-Hope and Suga that he was destructive and broke things easily.

"Don't drop that." She turned around and pushed the cart forward. A few seconds later she hears a sharp curse muttered behind her and glass breaking. She cringed at the sound and slowly turned around to see the mess and him grinning sheepishly.

"Uh...It broke...heh, heh." He rubbed the back of his neck while getting flustered.

"For crying out loud, Namjoon..."

No more shopping with Namjoon was the thought in her head. She only wondered what other stuff he plans to break while she continues to be a member of BTS.

-----

For the BTS NO music video filming, Jennie wore white skinny jeans, a white shirt that was shorter in the front and longer in the back that stopped just under her behind and wore a couple of gold rings and chains on her neck.

"What does Jennie expect for today's filming?" A camera man asked for a Bangtan Bomb.

"I'm not a part of the opening scene while they're all sitting at the desks. I'm legit being taken away by the guards as I try to snap everyone out of it so we can fight together. Aye~ I'm going to be a pretty cool damsel. So right now I'm just waiting for them to finish the scene, and then I can get started."

After waiting, Jennie goes to her filming position. It looked like a Hallway and she was informed that she would have to attempt to run away from the two guards before getting pulled back.

"And...ACTION!" The director yelled.

Jennie hastily starts to run as fast as she can with the guards right on her tail. She feels two pairs of strong hands gripping her brown arms tightly as she lets out a loud grunt. She then gets roughly pulled back. Subsequently, she tries to squirm away and break free as they start to pull her back.

"CUT!" The director said as she got released.

She bowed and smiled at the guards, shooting them a thumbs up. 

"We didn't hurt you, did we?" One of the guys acting as a guard asked her.

"Nah, you're fine. Don't worry about it." She reassured them before some of the staff patted her face and neck with a towel to dispose of any sweat and to fix her hair.

"Haha, this is weird." She grinned at the camera.

"Jennie is doing well." The camera goes to Rap Monster who watches her filming closely. From her intense facial expressions, to swiftly evading the guards before roughly getting held back, he was impressed with her acting.

"Good!" The director announced as everyone clapped at her efforts.

"Jennie did a great job, today. Good acting." Jin happily said.

After a couple more takes of her evading the guards, she's moved into the set where there's a cell.

"And...ACTION!" The director yelled.

She puts her hands behind her back as she gets escorted by the guards, meanwhile, she looks directly into the camera, waiting for her cue for her lyrics.

"They're always so ruthless. What they want from me is viewless. They must think I'm a nuisance...I won't let them control me..." She lipsynced her lyrics.

"Cut!" The director said and she was escorted into the cell. 

They shut her in, and she places her hands on the bars while looking directly into the camera yet again. The butterflies that were in her stomach was long gone, as she started to get into the acting.

"Hahaha, Jennie is in jail~" Jimin giggled at the sight.

"HA! HA! HA!" Jennie sarcastically laughed at him, earning a louder laugh from him.

"Action!"

"They held me down, tried to change my mind...You think I'm blind?" She lipsyncs as she slowly slides her hands down the bars. "Well, it's a little too late because I'm already on my grind...Why don't they leave us alone? Stop controlling our lives! Let us be who we want to be...And stop stressing our lives!"

She tries to shake the bars while looking around, before running her hands through her curly hair.

"Let it be known...We won't be discouraged...You lost this battle, so continue to baffle." She kicked the cell open, dropping one of the guards in the process, before taking down the other guard.

"Cut! Let's film the takedown again!"

"This is really awesome." She shot the Bangtan Bomb video camera rock on hand signs before getting back into the cell.

"ACTION!"

She roughly kicks the cell open as one of the guards gets struck on his back by the cell door and falls down. The other guard swiftly turns around and tries to grab her but she knees him in the stomach before kicking him in the face, dropping him.

"CUT! Good!"

"Awesome!" She jumped up and down, clapping. Afterward, she watched her performance on camera. "I look pretty good."

---

The next day after the MV filming, BTS and Jennie are in the same venue to have their photoshoot. Rapmon was first, then Jin and Suga.

"It's Jennie's turn! I believe she'll do really well." Jungkook mentioned with a grin on camera as she was called up for her shoot.

"I'm nervous~" She smiled nervously at the camera before getting adjusted. She decided to narrow her eyes into the camera for a more serious look as they began to snap the pictures. "Oh my God, this is so weird to do. Do I look weird?"

"You look beautiful." The cameraman commented

"Ah~ Thank you! Thank you! I'm so flattered." She giggled, feeling her face heat up. 

After she pulls herself together, she continues the shooting. Some poses involved having her back to the camera and turning her head to the side, having her arms crossed in front of the camera, and then pulling her chain to the side of her neck.

'Jennie successfully pulls through in her shooting' The caption on the Bangtan Bomb said as she checked out her photos.

"Wow! That's me?! I look badass! Now if only I could look badass every day. I'm glad my efforts paid off." She shoots the camera a thumbs up.

The Bangtan Gal Masterlist

Author's Note: Hey! I wrote this story back in 2016 on some fanfic websites and am bringing it back as I edit the chapters. I wanted to put my perspective and imagination on what if BTS had a black girl in their group from America. This'll be a long story starting from their debut so enjoy the ride!

I have so many chapters already written. I had stopped in the story around late 2016 before the MAMA Awards. As I wrote this story over the years I wanted this character to be relatable and grow as a performer as well as go through hardships. It'll be a slow start but it will get better as the chapters go on, I hope you give it a chance.

This will mainly start with friendship. Not just the character and the love interest. I didn't want to rush things and I tried my best to add a lot of bonding and cute moments. This is a SLOW BURN with my OC and Jungkook. The two will not become a couple until 2016.

I'm also on Wattpad and Archive of Our Own

Chapter Summary: Melanie is back in Philly to visit family and makes preparations before the PPV

Words: 3,000+

-----

Joe, Jon and Melanie visit the new WWE Performance Center in Orlando, FL. 

"Here at the opening of the WWE performance center, I'm here with 3 members of The Shield, Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose and Morgan Lopez. First of all, you guys came up through developmental here in WWE, what are your thoughts on the new training facility?" The interviewer asked.

"It's quite impressive, I've never seen a...I don't think a facility this big and this impressive ever existed in professional wrestling before. Seeing it born is pretty impressive. So much space, so much, really, expensive high tech equipment, uh, we've been in some nice gyms before but this is as nice as it gets. Pretty impressive." Ambrose answered.

"What's your thoughts Roman?" 

"I agree um, to see this much hard work, this much patience to go in it, it's a beautiful thing to watch it unfold and it's a humbling thing. It's a great day for the business." 

"Morgan, your thoughts?"

"This place is so awesome. I love it and it's really going to help the developmental roster. It's a wonderful thing that WWE has done to prepare the next generation of WWE superstars," Morgan replied with a grin. 

This was all so exciting to her. She couldn't wait to check everything out when she had the time.

"It's incredible to see you guys come up through the development area and the facilities in Tampa were good but to see this, makes you wonder about this place and how it's gonna help guys as they try to continue to make it onto the roster like you did." Interviewer added.

"The guys that are lucky enough to train here instead of a warehouse, a barn or a box with one little ring on a dirt floor or something like that, they are gonna have a real leg up on the competition. The next generation for the guys is gonna get more stiffer." Dean said.

"You jealous?" The interviewer chuckled

"I knew he was gonna ask that, haha." Morgan giggled.

"Uh, no, I mean, everything worked out for us. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for these guys. It should be bright for our future." Roman answered

"So how'd it feel to be called on the main roster?" Interviewer asked.

"Means everything. It's what I've been working my entire life for and persistence pays off." Dean responded.

"What's it been for you so far?" The interviewer asked Roman.

"I think it's been a great testament through the developmental system. A guy like Dean, he's been all around the world, wrestling in all kinds of places, he's been able to come here and polish off his skills. Morgan went to another major wrestling company and showed off her skills until she came to the developmental area in the WWE. And I was able to obtain a little bit of skills and polish it as well. Down here and on the main roster. But for everybody who is starting off here, have a great opportunity to

perfect their craft before they get on the main roster." He answered.

"Last few things, you mentioned you had some experience before you came here, Morgan. Going to another major wrestling company, how is that different from WWE?"

"Well, going to TNA and wrestling in a 6 sided ring is different from a 4-sided ring. So, when I came to the development area in WWE, it's been really tough to adjust to things since I got so used to 6 sides. But I managed. It's been hard but all that hard work paid off."

"You also had some experience too, give us a horror story on training compared to this facility." The interviewer asked Dean.

"Oh, I started training in a warehouse with a ring crammed into it with about no space in between the wall and the ring. There were some chairs around, there was a backseat of a van that somebody put there. I've

trained in some really bad rings and seen some really good rings. Bad facilities, and good facilities, this is about as good as it gets here today." Dean mentioned.

"Last thing, the excitement of being on the roster, your entrance and everything, what's it been like for you guys?" The interviewer asked.

"It's great, it's like being shot out of rocket, you know and I think we handle it like nobody else cause we're the hardest workers. That's what we do. We eat, we sleep, we train, harder than anybody and we

wrestle harder than anybody. So it's something to be expected and we want more. It don't stop here, it can only get better." Roman said.

"Roman, Dean, Morgan, thanks for your time and keep up the great work, appreciate it."

After they check out the new performance center, most of the roster have a bonfire near the woods, near their hotel rooms. 

"You sure we got permission to have a bonfire here?" Melanie asked

"Yep, everything is fine," Celeste reassured with a smile. 

Meanwhile, a lot of the roster was chilling around, talking and eating. Nic (Dolph Ziggler) was playing the guitar and singing and Celeste started burning her marshmallows. 

"Man..." Celeste whined.

"Do you need help?" Melanie asked

"Oh yes, she really does." April teased

"Hey! I don't need help, it's...been a while since I made smores." Celeste muttered

"I hope everyone doesn't eat all the smores, I have a sweet tooth tonight," Melanie said as she placed a marshmallow on a stick and began to heat it up.

"If it isn't grapes, it's smores." Celeste chuckled as she blew off the fire on her marshmallow which is now burnt. "I don't think I want this one."

"Take mine," April said as they traded sticks.

"You're awesome." Celeste thanks her while April and Melanie laugh. 

Melanie puts 4 smores on a plate and sits next to Jon who has on a cap, gray hoodie and jeans.

"Hey Mel, could you pass me a Pepsi?" Phil (CM Punk) asked as he took a bite out of his smore. Melanie takes a Pepsi out of the cooler and throws it at him as he effortlessly catches it. "Thanks, grapes."

"No problem dude!" she grinned and started eating

"So am I getting one?" Jon asked with a smile.

"Fine, fine." Melanie chuckled and fed him one as he licked her fingers. 

After everyone gets settled in and eats their snacks, some of the guys start to tell ghost stories. Melanie puts her head on Jon's shoulder as they hold hands. 

Celeste sneaks a picture of them and posts them on Twitter

'#PhillysWWEPowerCouple Dean and WWEMorgan101.'

----------

The next day, in Philadelphia. Melanie tweets 'I'm home. #PhillysOwn Diva is back! #MITB'

After getting settled in their hotel room, Jon and Melanie make their way to their rental car.

"Did you tell them you were here?" Jon asked 

"Nah, I want to surprise them."

"Just like you want to surprise your dad with the new studio?"

"Yep. The studio is all ready, I just can't wait to see the look on his face. It's gonna be awesome." Melanie beamed. "I'm driving!"

"No way, sweetheart. I'm driving." He countered.

"Oh come on!" She exclaimed. She knew a faster, shorter way to get to her parents' place. Jon started laughing as he got in the driver's seat. "Fine...but I'm driving to the arena."

"Hmm...I'll think about that."

"It's my rental car!" The Philly diva gets in the passenger seat.

"Our rental car." Jon corrected with a wink.

"Screw you..."

"Oh, right here in the car? Okay." He replied as he leaned over and started to kiss her. She kisses him back but then he starts to move down to her neck.

"Aye! Aye!" Melanie laughed and pushed him off. She checked her neck. "Look how red this mark is!"

"Trust me, there will be a lot more marks, and it won't be just on your neck." 

"Bluff! That's a bluff!"

"Keep telling yourself that, sweetheart."

After driving Jon's way to Melanie's parents' place, they make their way up the steps. 

"Ready?" he asked with a smile, glancing at her.

Melanie nods and begins knocking but facepalms. "Why am I knocking when I have a key...?" She chuckled and opened the door. Before she stepped in, she was quickly greeted by her 3 year old female Parson Russell Terrier. "Ellie!" She beamed as the dog barked and jumped on her.

"She's energetic, today." Jon pets the dog with a chuckle.

"Why is the dog barking?" Diego, Melanie's father asked as he walked to the front door with Ellie jumping out of Melanie's arms.

"Hey dad-­" Before Melanie can continue her sentence, she gets bear-hugged by him as she laughs. "Don't squeeze me to death, I got a match tonight."

"Haha, I was wondering when I was gonna see you again!" Diego mentioned, releasing her and turning to Jon. "Jon mi amigo!" He brings him in for a warm hug.

"Nice to see you, Mister Rivera," Jon said

"What did I say about calling me Mister Rivera? That makes me feel old. Call me Diego, all right?"

"Okay, Diego." he corrected himself with a short laugh.

"That's my boy! Come on in!" He gestured to them as they walked in. Melanie smiled at her father, she loved his carefree attitude. He was welcoming to everyone. "Your mother is cooking."

Melanie sighed as the smell of tacos filled the air and saw Jane walking out of the kitchen. "Mom!"

"Sweetie, who was that­-MY BABY!" Jane screamed and ran to hug her. She began tearing up with Melanie while giving her big kisses on the cheek. "I missed you so much!"

"Me too!"

"You see, she doesn't act that way with me...all that love and kisses." Diego shook his head with an amused expression, while Jon patted him on the back.

As they released, Jane turned her attention to Jon. "Jonathan, it's good to see you!" She hugged him and kissed him on the forehead.

"Nice to see you too." Jon smiled.

"Lunch will be ready soon," she informed and walked back to the kitchen. 

"Sit down, we have time before the show right?" Diego asked as Melanie nodded and they all took a seat. Diego started studying their movements as realization set in. "So...when did you two start dating?"

Melanie and Jon turn to each other, before nervously chuckling. 

"Um...how'd you know?" Melanie stuttered but relaxed when he laughed. 

"I'm glad you picked him. He's a good kid." Diego smiled. Ellie rubbed Melanie's leg as she smiled and petted her. 

"Thank you." Jon responded with a smile.

"Sorry, I didn't tell you sooner," Melanie mentioned with an apologetic smile.

"It's all right, and besides, a father knows. You look happier than ever." Diego pointed out.

Melanie grinned at him but then heard someone yell "You're making it wrong!"

"Is that...Aunt Aria?" Melanie asked, recognizing the voice.

"Yes. She came to visit."

"Oh boy..." The Philly diva groaned.

"What's wrong?" Jon raised a brow.

"My mother and aunt have a little rivalry. My aunt thinks that my mother isn't giving me a lot of freedom and is always in my business." She explained.

"Family drama? Interesting." Jon smirked out of amusement.

"It can be amusing sometimes. Aria is more of the outgoing, party type, while my mother is more...well...protective and motherly."

Aunt Aria walked in. Melanie looked at her as her long black hair was in a nice bun. She had arm sleeves and it may seem that she was intimidating but once she began to smile and speak, she was one of the coolest people to hang around. Melanie remembered she works at a lounge in LA. 

"Melanie! It's so good to see you!" Aria grinned and gave her a big hug.

"Nice to see you too, are you coming to the show?"

"Hell yeah. I must support my niece," she said as Jane walked in.

"Want a drink?" Diego asked as Jon nodded and they walked to the kitchen.

Jane and Aria sit with Melanie as they continue to catch up

"So...am I getting grandchildren soon?" Jane asked with a grin. 

Melanie was stunned at her sudden question and began blushing. That was too abrupt. 

"Expect her to ask questions at the wrong time..." Aria rolled her eyes.

"Mama! No digas eso!" Melanie exclaimed.

"Don't say that? What did I miss?" Diego asked, popping his head into the room.

"I just want to focus on my wrestling career right now," Melanie mentioned. "So let's not talk about kids, right now."

"Wait, you said you didn't want to learn Spanish, who has been teaching you?" Jane asked, noticing her Spanish speaking.

"Um...do you know what they're talking about?" Jon asked, watching them go back and forth.

"No, I don't. We'll leave the ladies to talk. Come on, let's chat," Diego suggested as Jon nodded and they walked outside.

"Give her a rest. She wants to focus on her wrestling career, sis." Aria retorted. 

"I was talking to my daughter. Not you. I know what I'm doing." Jane snapped. She looked at Melanie and then glanced at her neck. "Is that a love bite!? Who gave that to you?"

"Jane! She's in love, give her a break." Aria snapped back while Melanie cussed in her head that she had forgotten to hide it.

"Give her a break? She should wait till she's married to start having sex!"

Melanie facepalmed. "Man, it's good to be home..."

"Jane, she's 26! Stop babying her!" Aria exclaimed. 

Melanie walked to the kitchen and washed her hands. She grabbed a taco and began eating it as she sat back down in the living room. She watched in amusement as her mom and aunt argued.

"How dare you!? I am not babying her, I just care about her."

"Don't you think it's a bit too much to overreact over a love bite?"

"Yes!"

"You're insane!"

"Am not!"

"All right, all right, can I explain?" Melanie spoke up as they stopped talking and looked at her. "I'm dating Jon."

"I knew it." Aria grinned

"I had a feeling. That's wonderful honey!" Jane beamed.

"Like you knew." Aria retorted

"Of course I knew!"

"Prove it."

"I don't have to explain myself to you."

"Then you didn't know at all."

Melanie quickly finished her taco and snuck upstairs. She goes on the computer in the guest room and goes on Skype. 

"Please be on..." She murmured.

"Hey, Mel!" Joan (Chyna) greeted, appearing on the screen.

"Hey! I made it in Philly. Jon and I are at my parents' place."

"Glad you made it home safe. How is everyone?"

"Mom and Aria are still going at it."

"Ha! I'm not surprised about that. Hey, is that a love bite on your neck?" Chyna asked with a grin

Melanie hid it with her hair. "I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Haha. As long as Jon is treating you right, I have no problem with him."

Melanie smiled. "I miss you."

"I miss you too, Mel. Hopefully, I'll be able to go to another one of WWE's shows soon. Love you Mel."

"Love you too." Melanie kissed her fingers and put them on the screen as Chyna did the same. Heading back downstairs, she said, "Chyna sends her love."

"I'll have to call her to send her my love as well," Jane said.

Jon and Diego walk back inside. "Hey, Jon and I wanted to show you something." Melanie smiled at her dad.

"Show me something?" Diego asked.

"It's a surprise."

Melanie, Jon, Aria, Jane, and Diego drive downtown and arrive at a nice building. "What is this place?" Diego asked as everyone got out of the car.

"Well, Jon and I have been thinking and we wanted you to have the best Dance studio possible, so...we decided to buy you one."

Aria and Jane grinned at the sweet gesture while Diego was stunned. 

"This...this is mine?" He murmured.

"Yep, it was Jon's idea, and I loved it. We both know how much dancing means to you and how you need a new dance studio. Oh, we also hired some dance teachers to help you out. You are on your way to your own big dance company." Melanie grinned as she and Jon were hugged by him

"You two are so generous..." Diego said with tears in his eyes. "Gracias!"

"Ah, no problem," Jon said as Melanie agreed. He checked the time. "We gotta meet Colby and Joe at the gym."

"Right. We'll see you guys at the show. Enjoy the new studio in the meantime! We'll be visiting the studio from time to time to see how everything is going." The Philly diva said and hugged everyone goodbye.

'Fearless Athletics Cross Fit South Philadelphia Gym'

Walking to the entrance of the gym, Jon opened the door for her and they headed inside, meeting up with Colby and Joe, who were chatting.

"Hey~ it's the hometown girl and Jon." Colby greeted them.

"How ya doing Mel?" Joe asked after embracing her

"Doing great." She started stretching.

"All right, let's put our game faces on. We got a PPV to rule." Colby said.

"Have fun." Melanie giggled and walked over to a woman who looked familiar to her. "Leah?"

The woman turned around and widened her eyes. "OMG! Melanie!" Leah exclaimed and crushed her in a hug.

"How long has it been?!"

"I'm great! Working with the WWE!"

"I saw! You're awesome! I can't believe we lost touch, what is your number?" She asked and they exchanged numbers.

"I see you're still working out at the gym."

"Yeah! It's my life. Wow. It's so good to see you. You're in the Divas Championship match right? I'll be supporting you. I got front row tickets."

"Awesome, I'll make sure to keep a look out for you. Or I can see if I can arrange something so you can sit with my family. We'll play it by ear,"

The two decided to work out together just like old times. Leah looked more muscular as the years went by due to her hard work and healthy eating. After placing her dirty blond hair in a bun she held up a punching bag for Melanie. As she felt Melanie's kicks and punches, she nodded in approval

"Oh yeah, you haven't lost your touch one-bit hon," Leah praised. 

"So how's your love life?" Melanie asked as she lifted weights with her.

"My boyfriend and I are still doing great!"

"Wow! I told you he's a keeper! Now, isn't it time he popped the question?"

"Hey, you never know. I'm so ready for marriage."

"Wonder how it'll feel to be in a relationship that long."

"I gotta ask...are you finally dating Jonathan?"

Melanie smiled and nodded as Leah squealed and cheered. "Yep. We've been dating for a few months. He's such a sweetheart."

"Yes! Yes! Finally! I'm so happy! It was so obvious that he had such a huge crush on you. Finally, you two are together! Long overdue, hon. Is he here?"

"Yep, right over there, looking sexy as ever." Melanie pointed him out while they shared a laugh. They see Jon shirtless and in white shorts doing lift-ups on a bar. "His hair looks cute when it's all curly like that..."

"Haha, try to focus hon."

'To The Arena.'

Melanie and Jon walk down the ramp together. She looked around in awe. This was it. The Wells Fargo Center was going to be filled with thousands of people, as she prepared to take on her two best friends for the Diva's Championship tonight. It was still unreal to her.

"Ready for tonight?" Jon asked.

"I can't wait."

"Let's spar a little bit."

"Ditto."

Getting in the ring, they practice around together. As they continued, they locked up again and she put him in a headlock and hip tosses him down on the mat. 

"All right, pretend I'm Kaitlyn. I'm running towards you, about to spear you, what are you going to do?" He asked as they were back on their feet.

"Evade!" She quickly moves out of the way as he tries to spear her.

"Good. Try to avoid those spears, tonight."

"I'll try."

"If you get hit with the spear, just try to recover quickly and make sure to kick out as fast as you can. All right, give me some kicks." He advised, while she nodded in response. The Philly diva began kicking him in the midsection. "Make them sharper and harder. You're trying to win the Diva's Championship. Fight like it's your last title shot ever." 

Melanie responded by knocking him back a few steps from a spinning kick to the face. "Ooh! Are you okay?!" She looked worried as he rubbed his jaw.

"Good kick." He complimented with a smirk, while she sighed out of relief.

"It's almost show time!" they heard as everyone started to get ready backstage. The doors open for the fans so they can get their food, merchandise and seats.

"I'll see you later," Melanie said and kissed him. 

After showering, she did some finishing touches to her hair, getting it down and on her left side. 

Nicole and Brie walk in. "Hey Melanie! Ready for tonight?" Nicole asked with a smile. Suddenly Melanie started to tear up as her emotions got to her. "Oh no, I didn't mean to make you cry!"

"Way to go Nicole." Brie retorted and hugged Melanie.

"Shut up Brie!" Nikki snapped.

"You made her cry. This is why I'm the nicer twin."

"No, it's not your fault, just tears of joy. I'm just happy to be home." Melanie sniffed as she got released.

"Aw, you'll do great tonight," Brie reassured.

"Thanks."

April and Celeste walk in. "Hey! Are you ready for tonight? They are already starting to kick off." April said.

Melanie grinned. "Yep."

"I hope you two give it your all, and make the best woman win," Celeste said as April and Melanie nodded.

"Well, I gotta go meet Colby and Joe, I'll see you later in the ring, guys." 

Melanie tweets 'Kickoff show is here! Let's show them who's boss! #HoundsofJustice'

Melanie went to meet up with Joe, Jon and Colby as they were waiting for her.

"Hey! Ready?!" she exclaimed excitedly as they were pumped too. "We'll see you out there," she gave Jon a quick kiss on the lips.

"To the kickoff show, we go!" Colby cheered as they walked with security around the arena. "So, you nervous?"

Melanie smiled to herself as she saw fans around in lines and filming them, cheering.

"Not anymore. I'm home and I'm ready,"
