Chapter 9: Coming Soonie

With tears in my eyes I drop the bag containing oppa's candy.  Due too the amount of candy in the clear plastic it made a loud noise once making contact with the floor.  The few people in the shop looked our way. 

I carefully hopped off Taehyunie's back and bent down to pick up the bag.  When I stood back up I met the face of Appa, I rubbed my beet red nose and handed the younger Jeon his candy back.

I bit my quivering lip to hold back to tears, tears that I didn't shed that night years ago.  "I-," my voice cracked, "May I g-go use the rest-room, please?"

I was on the verge of breaking in the middle of the shop. Thankfully the others passerbyers returned to finding their candy leaving only the Jeon brothers attention on me.

Appa cupped my face with his hand and kissed away the single tear that fell from my forest green eye.  "Little one," he moved his lips from my face and tilted my head up to look at him. "Are you okay? What's wrong, why are you crying?"

I finally looked in his eyes that were made of dark chocolate.

'Girl. You don't even like chocolate. Why you comparing him to chocolate, he is better than that god forsaken substance.'

Oh shut up. I don't have to like chocolate to know his eyes are like chocolate, besides now is really not the time to have this debate. I retorted to my inner conscience.

Oppa bent down so he was kneeling on the floor and grabbed my hand, "Don't cry~ what's going on, you can tell us." He says as he gently caresses the back of my hand.

I gently pull away from their touch, "I just-just want to go to the b-bathroom." I hurriedly walked to the ladies room around the corner.  It was a single bathroom, one that didn't have stalls so only one person could be in at a time, luckily no one was in there.

I slide down the wall beside the door until I was sitting on the ground with my knees to my chest.  I let more tears fall down my cheeks as I bury my head in between my knees.

Jungkook's POV

She ran before either of us could catch her arm. I was watching from my seat as her and Taehyun got candy, I saw her staring at the cotton candy machine before she had her meltdown.

"I'm gonna go check on her-" I interrupt Taehyun.

I pull him back to my side, "No, let's leave her for a minute or two.  Then I'll go see if she's okay." He nodded.

I went to the worker working to cotton candy machine as I pulled out $10. "1 Jumbo Dumbo please."

'Wtf kinda name is that? Sure its probably bigger than Jimin hyung but who would give that name to cotton candy?'

I take to huge bag of multicolored whipped sugar and lug it towards the aggressive pink door that says ladies.

I lighty knock, "Hey. It's me, your cool Appa. Can I come in?"

'God I hope its (y/n) in there and not some random old lady that will whack me like Alex the lion.'

(Y/n) POV

There was a light knock at the door followed by Kookie's voice drifting through the cracks of the pink barrier.

I wiped my nose with the end of my sleeve before reaching up and undoing the lock without a word.

There is a soft click and the door creaks open for a tall black haired male to look down on me.

Appa bends down and sits beside me in front of the now closed door. "I want to help you," he wraps an arm around my shoulders, "but I can't if I don't know what's wrong."  I lay my head on the tip of his shoulder as my tears slow but don't stop.
