It was the collab no one saw coming. Not because the song was shocking—dark, intoxicating, laced with dangerous chemistry—but because you and Taehyung hated each other.

Or, at least, that’s what everyone thought.

The disgusted stares you gave him on camera, the way he rolled his eyes when fans mentioned you on live, the tension whenever you were in the same room—it all painted the perfect picture of two idols who couldn’t stand each other. So how did this collab happen?

That question only burned brighter when a recorded conversation between you two leaked. The teasing, the laughter, the way you yelled “Never! I hate you!” only for Taehyung to taunt back with “Hate you more~”—it sent the internet spiraling.

And now, here you were. Sitting beside him at an interview, forced to promote the song that had everyone talking.

The interviewer shifted uncomfortably before clearing their throat. “Well… I think the biggest question on everyone’s mind is—if you two hate each other so much, how did this song even happen?”

Taehyung chuckled, leaning back in his chair, gaze flickering to you. "I don’t know. Why don’t you ask her?"
