Let Me Love You // NCT Lucas

Chapter 1

I walked off the plane into the airport where it was full of people waiting and rushing to their flights. I looked around and tried to figure out where the luggage pickup was, but I couldn't figure it out. Most of the signs were in Korean. There were probably signs in English, but I wasn't paying attention.

Suddenly I saw some people I recognized from my plane, so I decided to follow them.

Maybe they are going to pickup their luggage?

Eventually, I made it to the luggage pickup and waited for my luggage. I looked around the moving conveyor belt, but I couldn't find my suitcase. All I saw was other suitcases that didn't look like mine. I walked over to the "help center" office and entered.

When I walked in I saw a lady, maybe in her late twenties to early thirties. The lady smiled, said hello and stood up. I sighed in relief to the fact she probably knows English. "Hi! I didn't see my suitcase on the conveyor belt I was wondering if you knew where it could be?" I asked. "I think that your suitcase could've been misplaced or put into a different plane", she replied. She sat back down and started to type on the computer. I waited for a few minutes and the lady said, "How about I call you later and let you know if I find out anything?" I nodded and wrote down my number on a piece of paper that she handed me and I left the office.

I walked around the airport clueless, all I had was my backpack. Somehow I ended up at the food court, so I found an empty table and sat there. I sighed and rubbed my forehead with my hands trying to calm myself. Then something caught my eye, I looked up and saw a guy sitting at a table across from me. He is very good looking. I didn't know I was staring until he looked up from his phone and made eye contact with me. I panicked and quickly turned my head away, hoping he didn't see me staring.

I sat there again confused with what I was even doing here, until I heard my stomach interrupt with a low growl. My eyes widened, I was a bit startled at the sudden noise. "Well I'm at the food court, I can at least get something to eat..." I thought and started to look at each restaurant.

My eyes soon landed on a place, I then got up and walked over to it. I looked at the menu and ordered my food. Once, I finished ordering I waited at the pickup area for name to be called. As I waited my eyes wandered over to the table the guy sat at. I tried to look away, but I couldn't help but stare. Then I realized that the guy was staring back at me, his eyes locked on mine. I tried to look away but I couldn't.

I started to blush, but then someone bumped into me causing me to ram my side into the corner of a table. I put my hand on the table to stabilize myself and quickly pushed away from it and rubbed my side. Pain filled up inside of me and my eyes started to water, but I didn't let the tears pour out. I pretended like nothing happened, but inside it hurt and I wanted to scream.

Then I heard my name being called and looked over and saw that my food was ready, so I went over and retrieved it. I walked back to my table and sat down. My side was still in pain, I tried to rub it to ease the pain, but it worsened. I tried not think about it and started eating my food and I was half way finished, but I couldn't eat anymore. My stomach was full of knots inside and hurt every time I looked at my food. I pushed my food away from me and got up. I grabbed my backpack and started to walk away from my table, but then I bumped into someone.

The person quickly grabbed me and pulled me into their arms to keep me from falling. I looked up quickly to see that it was the guy from that table across from mine. The guy smiled at me and I blushed. I realized I was in his arms and quickly pulled away. The guy looked at me concerned and reached out to me. My heart raced and I couldn't take it anymore, I broke out into a run and ran towards the restroom.

Once, I got into the restroom I hid in one of the stalls. I pressed my back against the stall door and slid myself to the ground. "What is wrong with me?Why did I run?" I asked myself. I looked at my shaking hands, "I need to calm down and get myself out of here", I said and got up. I walked quickly out of the restroom and went around looking for airport pickup area to catch a ride to a hotel. My best friend, Lily, wasn't able to pick me up since her husband wasn't home and she had to deal with her two other kids. As I walked around I held my hand to my chest, feeling my heart continue to beat rapidly. This feeling...
