The soft glow of the city lights danced across Jennie's face as she leaned against Taehyung, their bodies pressed together on the rooftop balcony of their shared penthouse apartment. The night air, crisp with the promise of spring, carried the faint scent of jasmine and the distant hum of the city. Their date had been perfect – dinner at their favorite hidden Italian restaurant, a quiet stroll through the park, and now, the gentle serenity of their rooftop haven.
«That was lovely», — Jennie murmured, tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear, — «I really needed that»
«Me too», — Taehyung replied, his voice husky with contentment. He nuzzled his nose against her neck, inhaling the familiar scent of her perfume.
Jennie's phone buzzed on the table beside them. She glanced at the screen, her smile faltering.
«Oh», — she said, her voice a little stained, — «It's the manager»
Taehyung, ever perceptive, noticed the change in her demeanor. — «What's wrong?'»
Jennie sighed, scrolling through the message manager had sent. It was a link to an online article, with a large, grainy picture of them holding hands, faces obscured in the dark, walking out of the restaurant earlier that evening. The caption read: 'BLACKPINK's Jennie and BTS's V Caught on a Valentine's Day Date.'
A chill ran down Taehyung's spine. This wasn't the first time their relationship had been "exposed", but this felt different. First it was their vacation on Jeju Island, then a walk in Paris. Seriously? Again?
«I can't believe. This is the third time», — Jennie exhales in disappointment and her lips turn down with pity. This media and fans will never leave them alone.
«They know how to ruin a holiday», — Taehyung just sighs in irritation and presses himself tighter to Jennie from behind, pulling her closer and hugging her comfortingly, — «Jagi, we have the right to privacy. You're not upset, are you?»
