*Astrid POV * 
*A few days later, night*

I let out a long sigh. I was in my room, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't sleep. I don't know why. Nope, it isn't anything about the Voice. I stopped thinking about it when I realised I was so sleepy that I must've eaten the ice-cream and forgot.

Anyway, I even did a sheep count to try falling asleep, but no. I looked around my room. There was also nothing else to do. I checked the time on my phone after picking it up. It was four o'clock in the morning. No one would be awake in the first place. So it looks like I'll just have to wait two hours.

I spent a long time in my bed. Shuffling, in attempts to sleep, trying to put my mind somewhere so that I might think about something instead of just staring at the ceiling with an empty head.

A piercing pain shot through my head all of a sudden. The ache then erupted in my chest and spread to my abdomen. I began to get stomach cramps. The room became hotter, and I began to sweat profusely, soaking my clothes. To calm myself, I sat shakily on the edge of my bed and took slow breaths. To keep myself a little cooler, I removed my hoodie. That wasn't of any help. The room seemed to get hotter by the minute.

Gathering up enough courage, I stood up and made my way to the small bottle of water kept in my room. I opened the cap and gulped down half the water. I went to sit on the bed. For a minute, nothing happened, but then, the tastelessness of water turned horribly bitter. It was so bad I wanted to spit out water that I already swallowed. I stood up and dashed into the bathroom. I sat down on the tiled floor and rubbed my own chest, in hopes to throw out the toxins. But I couldn't. The bitter taste was still there. I brushed my teeth for ten minutes, yet no progress.

Finally I decided to just get out of the bathroom. I walked into my balcony and took a deep quivering breath. The cool night air felt like needles on my hot skin. This is horrible. I feel like dying. My head hurts. My chest and stomach hurts. Now even my throat hurts. I feel nauseous, but I can't vomit. I can't even drink water. My body heat keeps rising, I feel like I'm locked up in an iron box and the box is set on fire. I don't like this. And... and the worst part, that this is awfully familiar.

I'm on my heat. (Pretty obvious by the chapTER NAME, DUHHHH AUTHOR NIM- *Gets smacked*)

*Taehyung POV*

I went into my walk in closet. Picking out random clothes, I just put them on.

Walking down the stairs I was greeted with everyone but Jin hyung, Yoongi hyung and kitten. I walked into the kitchen and saw Jin hyung cooking breakfast for the first time in weeks and Yoongi hyung sitting on the dining table drinking coffee. Astrid's still asleep? She never sleeps in this late.

Taehyung:Umm, Jin hyung, why is Astrid not here? How come she's still asleep?

Jin hyung: I know! I'm kinda worried...

Yoongi: No, don't worry. I woke up in the middle of night to hear sounds in her room. Maybe she slept late...

I nodded, drank some water and walked into the living room. Everyone greeted me good morning.

After like, 20 minutes, Jin hyung came up to me and said, "Call Astrid down, we'll have breakfast together. And then she had to go to her job too, right?" I nodded.

Walking up the stairs, I couldn't help but get a horrid feeling. Like something bad, really bad will happen. I reached her room but hesitated before entering. I smacked myself mentally. Why *smack* are *smack* you *smack* hesitating??!!
