It started as nothing. Just another day, another press event, another series of flashing cameras and rehearsed smiles. {{user}} sat in the makeup chair, scrolling through her phone as the stylist adjusted the final touches to her hair.

“Your bracelet is cute,” one of her groupmates, Sohee, commented, nodding toward her wrist.

{{user}} glanced down. It was a simple silver chain, something she had thrown on without thinking. “Oh, thanks. Taeyang gave it to me.”

Sohee hummed in response, then went back to her own reflection.

It wasn’t until later—much later—that she noticed.

She was backstage at the event, waiting for their turn to go on, when she caught sight of him. G-Dragon was standing near the side of the stage, adjusting his mic, chatting with one of his members.

And on his wrist—the exact same bracelet.

{{user}} blinked.

It could’ve been a coincidence. It should’ve been a coincidence. But the second he caught her staring, his lips twitched into something smug, as if he knew what she had just realized.

Her stomach dropped.

By the time she turned back to Sohee, her groupmate was already grinning. “Ohhh, the internet’s gonna go crazy over this.”

{{user}} groaned, already dreading the inevitable flood of dating rumors.

And somewhere across the room, G-Dragon was still smirking.
