Finding Out One of Their Members Is A Girl
A/N: I did this post for NCT because obviously they can easily add members, but BTS is obviously a fixed group, so this just requires some imagination, that you are the 8th member or basically took someoneās place as the 7th member...
Scenario is BigHit and management are aware youāre female, but feel as though you possess a unique talent or visual that would help BTS flourish before their big break through- However, to avoid any scandals or relationships, youāre coerced to fly under the radar as a guy. You have a lot of help keeping your secret, but some how it slips...
Heād always notice you as someone soft. Heād poke fun of you for it in a teaser manner, but always sling an arm around your shoulder, treating you like a younger brother.Ā
I think heās rather observant and soon his jokes about you being shorter or weak, or not having an Adamās apple would sort of pile up and heād slowly start piecing things together the longer heās around you. Heād figure it out pretty early on and ask their manner with a pretty ballsy accusation.
Once it was confirmed, heād probably be roped in to keeping it a secret. However, we know Jin has a will of his own and would probably tell the other members in a small rebellion of his own. Heād feel they deserve to know and would also be upset about the situation, feeling as though the company took him for a fool of some sort.
However, with success brewing, he know he canāt go public with the info and wants the best for everyone, so he keeps his trap shut...Ā
Heād be a bit distant, needing time recover after being lied to so blatantly. Heād be petty too, not bothering to keep his voice down as he complains about it- However, I think with time and some sense talked into him by the others and by staff he could reconcile with you.Ā
āIām sorry I acted like that... It was really childish. You must have had a hard time because of me...ā
Returning to friends, I think heād then adopt the view as a younger sister and would return to his nagging and silly ways- Always one to step in first to protect you and look after you.
Honestly, you got into talking with him late one night. Heād been in a moody funk all day and when you asked if he was alright he asked you to read over the lyrics heād been toying with. It developed into a philosophical discussion and eventually he deflected the conversation from himself, turning it towards you. With pressure and building stress from keeping such a big secret from the boys who were becoming your friends, you cracked and told him.
He didnāt seem so shocked. You would have mistook his expression for icy, if not for his kind words.
āItās sad that- to pursue your dream of music or dance that you have to go undercover like this... You should be able to be yourself.ā
This secret would probably bring the two of you a lot closer. Heād always keep an eye out for you, nagging at the other members when they were too rough or invading your space.
Heād keep your secret and if anyone had anything to say about it or found out about it heād give them a firm talking to.
You had to be careful when it came to Hoseok- He was handsy and unpredictable. The little things heād do like hang off members or spank them when presented with the opportunity caused you to keep a distance from him- But caused him to be all the more eager to close that distance.
To him you were a shy puppy- That is until a day of dance practice brings out the stern teacher within him, huffing about how you couldnāt get the moves right for a section-
āMaybe it doesn't look right since youāre so short-ā
Hands on your shoulders, he stops you to put his hands on your ribs, angling your body in the mirror. Tho... what was it he felt? A bra? Or some kind of binding?
He wouldnāt be able to shake the thought, jumping to all sorts of conclusions and for the next few days every interaction with you would become an analysis, searching for all the feminine qualities you possessed before he built a solid case to confront you with.
āAre... you a girl?ā
Heād try to seem nonchalant about it, not wanting to scare you off and wanting to seem cool... Heād keep you close as a friend, but would always still see you as a girl, unable to not fret over you or take notice to certain things.
Heād be upset to say the least.
Heād overheard a conversation between you and one of the management staffs, feeling his blood boil. Heād feel betrayed and irked that you got special privileges this whole time. Heād probably think it was a secret that couldnāt be kept and that itād bring him and the rest of BTS down eventually... Unwilling, heād probably be forced to keep it a secret.
With time I think heād warm back up to you. Heās very philosophical and knows you didnāt do anything malicious or intentional to hurt him, so he canāt hold it against you forever... Plus, as BTS grew heād probably realize to keep growing the team needs to stay tight knit and as leader he has to make sure of that, so heād work extra hard to become close with you and make sure everyone else was good as well and would probably later tell them as well. He sees the team as a family, so I donāt think heād look at you in any other way than a sister and would make sure the other members are on the same page as well.
Heād give you extra attention because heād worry if you felt lonely or uncomfortable at times.
āYeah, donāt let it bother you when he says that... Heās just being stupid.ā
Heād be so heartbroken.
He was just warming up to you, pulling you into his inner circle, determined to make you one of his close friends. So, heād suddenly feel so outcast by this news he saw on your chat with the manager, after you accidentally left it open on the computer. Heād keep it to himself for a few days and be in an obvious sulky funk. Until he finally blows up and blurts it out, either at you, the manager, or everyone whoās there.
Heād feel betrayed, but would keep your secret. Heād take a longer time than some of the others to warm back up to you, keeping his silent distance.
āI feel like I donāt even know you.ā
That being said, he would eventually warm back up to you, as your team goes through more together and success, a close knit family is needed. In fact, I think Jimin would get a tad possessive, clinging to you a lot and doing a lot of things for you- Yāall would probably be the most popular ship because he isnāt subtle at all... Heād worry about you and would want to protect you from the members, antis, and world. Heād feel special being the one who knew your secret, so heād go to great lengths to make sure it stays a secret, that youāre his little secret.
Icy Taehyung is scary. When he gets in his moods he can be intimidating and his words can cut deep.
āItād be easier if you werenāt here.ā
Youāre not even sure how he found out, but he some how did and told everyone else. Heād be petty and ignore with some other members who may have felt betrayed, in fact itād sort of be outcasting you... Thereād probably be a meeting held about thisĀ ābullyingā and have it talked about. In reality, his feelings were just hurt and he felt betrayed and wanted to make you feel bad as well, so he took to ignoring you and trying to gain members to his side- But he sees how hurt you must actually be after his actions and begins to feel guilty, unable to look at you.
He knows he was immature and I think the remorse and guilt would suddenly pile up once his anger was wiped away and heād feel awful. He knows you must be going through a hard time already and feel lonesome being the only girl with a big secret to keep- And he would have never thought of himself as the type to intentionally hurt someone else like this... So, heād end up doing everything in his power to make it up to you- Heād feel bad about acting like nothing every happened, so heād do things under the radar, leave you snacks, trade his Powerade for yours because he knows you like this flavor better, buy you a nice birthday present, etc... I think if you could forgive him, itād bring the two of you really close and heād always spoil you, never really forgiving himself for what he did and feeling itās his duty to protect you.
Oof... Itās an awkward road ahead. He found a box of tampons/pads and thatās it.
Heād keep it a secret for the longest time and you wouldn't even know he knew. But heād act weird for like a month, the dorky competitive boy whoād steal your chips now avoids you like the plague, simply muttering one word replies to you.
I think heād still be in shock and might finally crack to one of his hyungs like RM and spill the beans. Heād wonder if anyone knew, if management or BH did, or if you were some mastermind who someone joined a boyband all on your own.
Itād take a lot of time and coaching for him to act normal again, but having gone through so much together and spending so much time constantly together, I think itād happen naturally and after a few months. A part of him would always view you as a girl, someone frail and delicate that needed looking after in his eyes. So heād distract Hobi when he started going in on you about how you needed to build your stamina for another round of practice or when Jin would pull you into a headlock; indirectly saving you again and again.
I also think like Jimin he could get a little possessive. He may be the youngest, so I think heād enjoy the idea of being responsible for someone younger orĀ āfrailerā than him, as itād give him a sense of power and maturity. Heād be wary about such obvious skinship, but would still let it be known he was the one standing next to you.
