Jeon Jungkook ⁰⁵

You and Jungkook had a relationship that went a little beyond the formality required by work. You were the group's manager, you already had a lot of experience in the field, and you had worked at the company long enough to have built a good relationship with all the members. Still, Jungkook was a little different.

Whenever he had the chance, he made a point of provoking her. He flirted shamelessly, made double entendres, and found any excuse to tease her. It wasn't something that bothered her—quite the opposite. Deep down, she knew she liked the attention, even though she would never admit it.

Still, he needed to maintain professionalism. That's why he always resorted to the same argument: his age.

You were only three years older than him. Perhaps it wasn't such a significant difference, but it was enough to use it to your advantage whenever Jungkook crossed the line a little.

Respect your noona.

Or, simply:

You're still a baby.

It was practically an automatic response.

That night, after the show in Los Angeles, you were finalizing the last details before everyone returned to the hotel. While you were checking some information from the team, Jungkook, as usual, took the opportunity to tease you.

"Noona... please. We could go out today. Nothing too serious..." he said, already expecting another rejection, while making an almost exaggeratedly needy expression.

Before you could answer, Namjoon, who was getting ready to leave, intervened:

Jungkook, go to the hotel and leave her alone, kid. You're acting like a baby.

Jungkook immediately glanced at the older man.

Don't interfere, hyung.

Then, with a confident smile and a provocative glint in his eye, he added:

Babies don't make babies.
