The Mystery Revealed

The music in the club was blasting, neon lights flashing across the dance floor, but y/n’s entire world had gone still. The man beside her had just leaned in, his voice low and dangerously charming, whispering words that made her heart race faster than ever:

“Would you like to come with me?”

Her eyes widened as she stared at him, trying to read what lay behind that mask and those captivating eyes. She didn’t know whether to laugh, run away, or… actually say yes.

y/n (thinking): What is wrong with me? He’s just some random guy… right? But why does it feel so different?

Gathering her courage, she smirked and tilted her head.

y/n: And what if I say no?

The stranger leaned back, a sly smile tugging at his lips even though half of his face was still hidden.

Him: Then I’ll just have to try harder to convince you.

His confidence made her heart skip. He wasn’t desperate, he wasn’t pushy it was like he knew she’d eventually give in.

Y/n rolled her eyes, pretending to be unaffected, and lifted her glass for another sip.

Just then, the bartender returned with a tray of drinks for another customer but leaned close to her, whispering quickly:

Bartender: Y/n, do you even realize who you’re sitting next to?

y/n (frowning): What do you mean?

The bartender only gave her a knowing smile before walking away.

Her curiosity grew. She turned back toward the man beside her, narrowing her eyes suspiciously.

y/n: Okay, mystery man. Enough games. Who exactly are you?

For a moment, he didn’t reply. Instead, he reached up, pulled his mask down just slightly, and leaned closer. His lips brushed against her ear as he spoke.

Him: I’m Jimin. Park Jimin.

Y/n froze. Her wine glass almost slipped from her hands.

y/n (thinking): Wait what? Park Jimin? THE Park Jimin? From BTS?! No… no way. I must be dreaming.

She blinked rapidly, trying to steady her racing heartbeat, but his smirk told her everything. He was serious.

y/n (stuttering): Y-you’re kidding… right?

Jimin: Do I look like I’m joking?

He pulled his mask down just a little more, and the dim lights of the club revealed enough of his features. Those lips, that jawline, those unmistakable eyes she’d seen them countless times on screens, in music videos, in magazines. But here he was, sitting right next to her in flesh and blood.

y/n (thinking): Oh my god… Park Jimin is right in front of me.

She quickly looked around. Nobody else in the club seemed to have noticed yet. Maybe it was the darkness, maybe it was luck, but somehow, the idol who couldn’t step outside without being recognized was here… talking to her.

Jimin (softly): Don’t tell anyone I’m here. Please. I just wanted a night away from cameras… away from the chaos. And then, I found myself next to you.

Her breath caught.

y/n: Why me?

Jimin leaned forward, locking eyes with her, his gaze so intense it made her forget how to breathe.

Jimin: Maybe because fate wanted us to meet.

The music dropped to a heavy bass, the lights flickered, and y/n’s pulse thumped in rhythm. She didn’t know if she was terrified or thrilled but one thing was clear.

Her life would never be the same after tonight.
