Savior 🔞

I am sitting in a chair in the lobby as instructed by a bitchy secretary. Noone seems to know when, or even if, Jungkook will come in today. I'm using his private plane, which is ready whenever I get there, so I can just wait I guess. I've tried calling, and texting, but he's ignoring me. He never came back to the room last night, and I'm sure that he's with her... Sophia...

I'm scrolling through my social media, when a deep voice interrupts my peace. "Aera? What are you doing here?" I look up to see Taehyung walking towards me. Behind him is Yoongi and Jimin... (shit... what is Jimin doing here?)

"Hey Tae. I came here to see my husband, but I guess he's too busy, so I'm heading back to Seoul. "I try to keep my tone friendly to not give away my true feelings. He looks around the lobby for a minute, but then focuses back on me. "Did you not bring Olivia? Or what about Rosé?" Jimin is now standing next to Taehyung, looking at me in a questioning way.

"Uh... No. Olivia is with the Jeon's, and Rosé and I aren't together anymore." "WHAT?!?" Jimin almost yells at me. All 3 men are giving me confused looks, but I keep a passive face. "We broke up. She... Uh... Found someone else... I guess."

I am trying not to panic. All it's going to take is a phone call to Rosé, and they'll know what really happened. Yoongi is giving me a funny look, but doesn't say anything. Taehyung sits down next to me, taking my hand. "I'm sorry to hear that Aera. I'm sure you'll find someone better." He's so genuine, it almost makes me feel guilty. "Thanks Tae" is all I can manage.

"Do you know when Jungkook will get here Taehyung? I wanted to talk with him before I got on a long flight." Jimin is not looking at me, but I can tell he's in deep thought. Tae shrugs his shoulders only to signal he didn't know about Jungkook. "Did you try calling him?" Yoongi questions. I nod but don't meet his intense stare.

"Why did you come all the way here Aera?" Yoongi asks. This guy has never liked me. It's like he can see through me and it unnerves me. "What do you mean? I came to spend time with Jungkook. Is there something wrong in that?" He knows he's getting to me, so he just stares me down.

"Why would you travel that long to spend time with Jungkook, who we all know is just your 'beard', when he's on a work trip? To come all this way without Olivia seems strange to me also..." I'm reminding myself to breathe before I snap, but I see that Jimin is also watching me for my answer. "It's not really your concern is it? But if you must know, Jungkook is not only my husband, but a friend. My relationship with Rosé ended, and I wanted to be with someone who cares for me... Does that answer your question?"

"Why not call your sister?" Jimin asks. What is with these guys? "Jimin... My sister has never approved of my relationship with Rosé. I didn't want to hear how happy she would be that it ended." Tae is squeezing my hand, and giving me a sympathetic look.

"I'm a little confused... I thought Jungkook was in the hotel room with you last night..." Taehyung says. The other 2 men look from Tae to me, and I am starting to feel sick. "He was... But he left before I woke up. I thought he went to the gym and then would be here. Maybe he went back there... I should go check. If he comes here, will you ask him to call me?"

Standing before any one of them can question me further, I tell them goodbye. As I turn to leave, Yoongi grabs my arm. I stop and look him in the eyes and he tilts his head in a contemplating manner. "What's going on Aera? There is something you're not telling us."

As I am about to answer, I hear a girl call out to Jimin. Yoongi is smirking at me, and watching me closely. I see Jimin turn and excitedly run to the pretty blonde girl. He lifts her off the ground in a tight hug, making her giggle. Yoongi whispers to me "i see you're familiar with our sophia... jungkook's sophia..." I glare at him and rip my arm out of his hold.
