15 | Ms Seoul

The days of practice flew by fast, it was just the same routine that's why everyone knew what to do already, the real question is how they're going to do it. The day before the event, Y/N and the boys went to the mall once again to help her choose the perfect attire

There were a lot of perfect dresses, but the blue one really caught everyone's attention, and Y/N found it comfortable for some reason

"Hyung you better look away from noona before you start falling for her without knowing it" Jungkook joked to Taehyung and nudged him by the arm, it was enough to make him stop staring

"O-Oh yeah" Taehyung chuckled nervously

Jungkook smiled "Hyung's so cute when he's flustered, I should tell-" he got cut off

"No!" He said quietly, and pulled Jungkook away from the others "Look, she's cute and all but Y/N isn't my type okay? And I don't want to be murdered by my own friend" He lied

Jungkook scoffs "You should've asked Namjoon hyung to set you up on a blind date then"

Taehyung glanced at Y/N, who was admiring her dress with Jin and Hoseok "I have no plans of seeing anyone at the moment"

As they entered the large gymnasium, it was filled with lights and pastel colors, since Y/N informed the school that she invited a "few" people, it was fortunate that there were six vacant seats at the front

"Namjoon? Did you bring the camera?" Jin asked

"Wait? I was supposed to bring it?" The eldest facepalmed at his answer

"Don't worry, I have it" Hoseok removed the small camera from his bag and gave it to Jin "I have a feeling that would happen" He laughed a bit

everyone's heads turned to the door when almost the whole room were screaming, the past winners of Ms Seoul has arrived, they walked along the aisle, towards their seats, Jung Da Won was behind two of the winners, they were quite many, let's say it twenty-two women before the newly selected students took a turn to walk

Once the girls were on the stage, Da Won stood up from her seat and walked towards one of the teachers "Taehyung? Is that you?" She noticed one instantly

"Ne" He grinned "Da Won noona, how's it going?"

"Great, I'm excited actually, where's the others?" She asked, she missed the boys so much, mostly her own brother

"There, you can take my seat" He pointed to his spot across the room, it was easy to tell because of Namjoon's tall height even when he's sitting, and the boys having fun made it obvious

Da Won squinted for a moment "Where's Jimin?"

"Oh, he'll come, to surprise his sister, Y/N, she's part of the competition"

She nodded "I hope she wins" she looked at Y/N who was chatting with Somin "And I hope things can go back to the way it was before, are you sure about your decision Taehyung?" She asked worriedly "Y/N doesn't even remember me and her own older brother"

"I can manage" Taehyung sighed "It's about to start, I should go backstage now" He smiled weakly, after that, Da Won and him parted ways, once she reached the boys' area, she was greeted with hugs and a very hyper Hoseok, and lots of stories of course

"Ladies and gentlemen, let me present to you... The Candidates for Ms Seoul 2016!" The emcee announced, and gestured the girls to walk forward, the audience applauded.

"Hello! Cho Hyunjae here, I really don't have anything to say since most of you wont give a damn about my statement, but know that I'll do my best to win" the first girl stated, which left everyone's eyes wide opened

"This is Kim So Young, the head cheerleader in case you didn't know, that's all, find out more about me later"

" Morning! I'm Park Y/N, 18 years old, and here for the experience! Prepare to get amazed" The six boys, and Da Won clapped loudly, Taehyung was receiving weird stares from the staff in the back of the stage but shrugged it off

"Greetings ! Your queen, Baek Chaerin, many of you know me because of my family, but I'm here to make my own name, remember, I'm always different and I love it" She smiled sweetly, but it was obviously fake, Da Won rolled her eyes in annoyance, and some whispers could be heard in the room

Only someone without brains would believe that Y/N thought

"Chaerin's so beautiful and sweet, I want to be like her someday" One of the contestants said in envy

well now we know who judges people based on what they see

Three more contestants introduced themselves next, Lee Jae Hwa, Ah Eun Kyng, and Ryu Sook, the curtains closed for a moment, it was time for them to get ready for the next part, modelling. The curtains reopened when the girls formed a line, and they started walking as soon as the music started, many clapped and some boys from the school whistled, as Y/N's turn got closer, she felt the nervousness rise

nevertheless, she was still able to walk along the stage without tripping, just like the practice, she caught sight of the five boys waving at her, which boosted her confidence, Y/N didn't know why, but felt a bit disappointed because Taehyung wasn't there

Pabo, he's a teacher here remember? Wait why were you bothered though?

Once Y/N entered the backstage area, she was able to breathe normally again, and she shook her head, after remembering her thought a while ago

"You're doing good" A familiar voice complimented, Y/N turned around to see a smiling Taehyung "If you don't mind me asking" He began "What exactly are you going to do for the talent portion?" He asked "You never really mentioned anything over the weekend" He drank from his water bottle

Y/N started to panic inside at the realization "Oh fuck! I didn't plan anything!" Taehyung then choked "No swearing! You might get disqualified" He coughed "Sorry" she apologized and handed him her handkerchief

"But still" she sighed "there's no point if I just stand there"

"I never expected that you'd want to win" he mentioned

"Three days of practice would get wasted if I dont" Y/N rolled her eyes, Taehyung thought for a moment and snapped when he already thought of an idea "I know what to do!" He whispered his plan to Y/N, hoping that she'll agree

"But you're a judge" She frowned "How can we-?" Taehyung cut her off

"What? You have a good singing voice, Just trust me okay? Besides you have no other choice" Taehyung shrugged "Change, I'll be back" He ordered and rushed outside, leaving Y/N confused

"What has gotten into that man to make him come up with an idea like that?" she muttered "it's not like I have anything else in mind" She sighed and entered the dressing room

"Thank you Baek Chaerin for your wonderful ballet dance" The emcee admired "Now, the delay is over, the last but not the least performance will be from Park Y/N and... Kim Taehyung?" He read the paper given to him in slight shock and confusion

"what?" The five boys at the front looked at eachother

"Those two- I'm so disappointed" Jin shook his head

"Wow, just wow" Hoseok stated

"Taehyung better not make a fool of himself on stage, I pity Y/N if that happens" Yoongi yawned and sat up straight

Meanwhile, two were actually glad about what they heard, first was Da Won, who was smiling without anyone noticing it, and someone way in the back, who was hiding in the shadows

The two walked out of the curtains, Chaerin, who was watching them, shot daggers at Y/N, feeling that something us up with the two. In Taehyung's seat, was Namjoon, who was a temporary judge for the last performance. Y/N and Taehyung were both holding microphones, waiting for the music to play, once it did, they started their duet

You know I want you

It's not a secret I try to hide

I know you want me

So don't keep saying our hands are tied

Y/N can't help but fall in love with Taehyung's soothing voice

You claim it's not in the cards

But fate is pulling you miles away

And out of reach from me

But you're here in my heart

So who can stop me if I decide

That you're my destiny?

Everyone in the room listened in awe, who knew that someone like him can sing amazingly? Aigo Kim Taehyung, when will I ever understand you? Y/N thought, without realizing that she was smiling the whole time, out of hundreds of people in the room, only one noticed it

"You two are way too oblivious sometimes" Jungkook frowned

It was Y/N's turn to sing, it was Taehyung's turn to take time to her voice. Y/N felt Taehyung staring at her, once she glanced at him, he looked at a different direction, yep, she was right

No one can rewrite the stars

How can you say you'll be mine

Everything keeps us apart

And I'm not the one you were meant to find

It's not up to you

It's not up to me

When everyone tells us what we can be

How can we rewrite the stars?

Say that the world can be ours

Tonight

Y/N sang, little did she know that those words made Taehyung's heart ache

All I want is to fly with you

All I want is to fall with you

So just give me all of you

They sang together, looking into eachother's eyes. Y/N felt something, that she missed every single thing that was happening at the moment, but she doesn't remember experiencing such thing before, and she got another feeling, that, all of this was right for some unknown reason

Y/N reminded herself that all of this was just an idea by Taehyung to help her have a performance, he was being a good person, but why? Besides, the two of them won't be doing the same thing again, that's for sure. No matter what reason it was, she still wasn't allowed to feel anything for her own teacher

The two finished the song, and their performance got the loudest clap from the audience, many even wanted them to do another song, but Taehyung had to go back judging the competition

"I ship them so much" Hoseok wiped a tear from his eye

"Who knew my dear brother liked romantic stuff" Da Won chuckled "Oh right, you have a girlfriend, that's why"

"Shut up" He blushed slightly "You're just teasing me because you're still single" Da Won rolled her eyes

"In case you've forgotten, you scared all the boys who wanted to ask me out" She raised her eyebrow "And what's wrong with being single? I don't need another drama in my life"

The last and most awaited part, the Question and Answer portion, after this, the winner will be announced, well, obviously. As one of the contestants took their turn to answer the question, the others' ears will be covered with headphones so they won't hear both the question and answer itself

It was Y/N's turn already, one of the teachers removed the headphone from her head, she walked towards the emcee who was holding a bowl full of paper with questions written in each one, Y/N took the one at the top and unrolled it

"What does it say?" The emcee asked, handing the microphone to Y/N, she got it and read the question out loud "Who is the person you look up to the most?"

Y/N breathed in for a moment and looked to the crowd "Well, I look up to a lot actually, but since we're referring to one person, then I'd say I always look up to my big brother, Park Jimin. He may be a pain in the arse sometimes, but he's the best. When it comes to me, he's too overprotective at times to the point that he asks his own friends to look after me" She chuckled and smiled at the six boys in front of her "I don't mind, at least he cares. You know, he may look strong, but deep inside, he really cares a lot about the people who are important to him, so I'm not surprised if I ended up in the hospital just because of a paper cut" She chuckled, remembering the time when Jimin actually did that

The judges seemed emotional with Y/N's statement, as well as everyone in the room, except Chaerin though, she thinks that Y/N said something too harsh that everyone's tears fell

"Pabo" Jimin smirked from the back of the room "Stop the Cheesy stuff, I'm embarassed now" He laughed quietly as he watched his sister

Thirty minutes passed, once the judges already finalized who the winner was, they handed the result to the emcee

Everyone waited patiently, and most had the same expectations on who will take home the crown, the boys, and Da Won chatted with eachother, about the surprise party for Y/N afterwards

The emcee cleared his throat "It's the moment you all were waiting for" He stated "Our new Ms Seoul is..." He read what was written "Baek Chaerin!"

While the Baek family was beyond happy, everyone else 'boo-ed' , they expected Y/N to win and felt like the family just paid the school to let their daughter win. As Chaerin flashed an annoying victory smile to Y/N, she stood up to get her crown

While she was walking, Y/N noticed Chaerin dropped something, it was a piece of paper, being the curious girl she was, she picked it up and read it

I already messed up the other judge's results, apparently, they all wanted that Park to win, they won't expect a thing

Y/N's eyes widened at this, she stood up from her seat and ran towards the edge of the stage where the emcee was waiting for Chaerin, everyone got shocked at what happened

"Everyone! Chaerin cheated! Look at this note!" She was about to hand the paper to the emcee when-

"NO!" Chaerin shrieked and got the paper with her one hand before the emcee could even see what was written on it, as she did so, she pushed Y/N with her free hand, which resulted to her falling off the stage

"AHHH!" everyone screamed

"Y/N!" The five boys panicked, standing up from their seats, making an effort to get to her before she fell to the ground

"Y/N!" Jimin's scream was so loud that everyone could hear it, he as fast as he could, with his jaw clenching, Chaerin took it too far

Taehyung however, stood up from his table, and ran to where Y/N was supposed to fall, luckily, he caught her on time, once she was in his arms, he felt himself breathe normally again. "Are you okay?" He asked, his face filled with worry

Y/N who couldn't process everything well, nodded, without saying a word, tears were falling from her eyes. As if on cue, the six boys, and Da Won walked to him, he slowly let Y/N down, she was still shaking, they took her away from the gymnasium, ignoring all the stares they recieved

Taehyung noticed Chaerin holding the paper Y/N had a moment ago "Give me that" he ordered coldly

"And what if I don't?!"

"Fine then, don't give it, tomorrow, the whole Korea will know that the Baek's are not up to any good once again" He stated loudly, enough for Chaerin's parents to signal her to give the paper, without any other choice, she threw the paper to Taehyung, who caught and read it, laughing bitterly after doing so

"I can't believe you guys would do anything for the attention or your 'good' image" Those were his last words before exiting the gymnasium, he shut the door so hard on the way out, that everyone flinched
