A Space Called YOU (Bang Chan x reader)

Falls Into Place

The next morning wasn't any easier. There were constant notifications from twitter, instagram, and bubble. I hadn't been on bubble in a long while so I decided to hop on and give everyone a small update.

Y/nnn<3: hihi! there's a performance today. hope all goes well! :)

Y/nnn<3: i'm doing much better. thank you for the kind concerns MXP's!!

I put my phone in my pocket and went out the door for work. When I arrived, I met Gigi by the door who had just gotten there. "Hyung-ah!!" She screamed. "You don't look too good."

"I didn't get much sleep." I sighed, opening the door. "I'm okay though. Let's go." As we walked in, Jisung stopped me before I could even take another step.

"Y/n Hyung!!" He hugged me. "I'm sorry we haven't talked in a while. After everything that happened and Channie Hyung going on sick leave, we've been slammed."

"No worries, Ji." I smiled softly. "We've also been super busy and with everything going on I haven't been too fond of conversations."

"I get that. If you need anything, I'm always here." He paused. "I better get going, I'll see you later." As we waved goodbye, Gigi and I walked into the room where everyone else was waiting for us.

The manager came in to collect us to have us all ready for the event later. It had been a while since we have been to a event with paparazzi. I was a little nervous after all the events that had happened in the span of three weeks. In between being passed around by the stylists, I had a quick conversation with Felix.

Y/n: Anything from Chan yet?

Felix: He said he doesn't want to discuss it, but he did call.

Y/n: I'm sorry for the trouble I have caused. It was never my intention.

Felix: It's not your fault, y/n. Chan will bounce right back like he always does. Good luck today. I wish I could watch in person.

Y/n: I'm sure you'll see all the clips of tonight later on, but thank you again.

I put my phone back in my bag as I prepared to get into the car. It was our first big performance at an event. Although we had performed before, they were always small and then there was our debut stage. This time we were actually performing in front of millions and people would be watching at home from their screens. It was all so nerve wracking.

We piled into the car. Dongyeon and Taehyun sat in the back, while me, Gigi, and Jena sat in the row in front of them. The car ride was silent as we made our way. "Don't overwork yourself, Tae." I mentioned. "Take it easy."

"I'm doing much better. I'll be fine this time." He reassured but I was still not convinced.

"I'm serious. Take it easy." I repeated, giving him a stern warning. "Whenever you need a break, let us know. We'll fill in your spot." He nodded.

Upon arrival, we were practically jumped as we got out of the car. Lights flashing, people yelling, fans screaming, and the entire crowd piled around the car door. "Y/n! Gigi! Taehyun!!!" We heard the screams "Jena! Dongyeon!!" There were more from the other side.

We smiled and waved to everyone as we made our way when I was suddenly stopped by a group of paparazzi. "Y/n, is it true you were with Chan and Dongyeon at the same time?" I didnt answer. "Y/n, is it true that you kiss Dongyeon in that time?"

"No." I said quietly as I pushed my way through.

"Are you the reason Chan went on a short hiatus?" The questions kept coming in until I felt a hand wrap around my shoulder.

"She/He/They do not have to answer any of your questions, please step back." I turned around and saw Taehyun who was trying to get me through the door. As soon as we were able to shut the door, he stopped. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." I lied as I walked up on stage where the other members were waiting for us.

"What happened out there?" Jena whispered.

"Paparazzi." I put it simply as we both laughed and shrugged it off.

As the performance started, I felt weird stares all night as if I was not wanted there. For the most part people cheered but I could hear some "Boo!!" in the distance. Nonetheless, I didn't let it distract me from putting on a show for the rest of our fans who had came all that way to see us.

Afterwards, I was once again pestered with questions. "Y/n! Are you still seeing Chan?"

I tried pushing through but I had no luck. "Please step back."

"Why won't you answer the questions? Is it because it's all true?"

"It's not true, please step back." I tried again.

"Hey!" Jena ran up to me. "Leave her/him/them alone! Show some compassion." She pushed through them as I ran to the door. "Hey, where are you going?"

"I'm sorry." I sniffled. "I can't be here." I bursted into tears as I ran out the door, shaking and sobbing uncontrollably. I ran as fast as I could in the pouring rain and in the dark. There was one place I needed to go and I needed to see Chan. No matter what happens, I needed to see him.

As I turned the corner, I saw him stop when he noticed it was me. "I was coming to see you." He said but I said nothing. Instead I broke down into a crying mess and fell into his arms as he hushed me. "Shh, it's okay, darling. I'm right here." He cradled me and repeatedly kissed my head. "I got you. You're okay."

"I'm so sorry." I barely was able to get the words out.

"For what, sweetheart?"

"For what I said to you. I'm so sorry." I cried even more.

"You're okay. Everything's okay now. Just breathe." He patted my head as he pulled away. "I can't stay away from you, y/n." He cupped my face. "I need you with me. Please don't go again." I looked into his eyes as he kissed me and I kissed him back. I was no longer worried about anything that had happened, I knew that he'd never let anything happen to me.
