Jungkook wasn't certain how long he had been asleep for when the calls came. Probably not as long as he had suspected because the laptop screen was still on, only now it showed similar movie titles as the titanic and was even playing a trailer for one of the movies.

But that wasn't what woke him. It was the buzzing and the vibration coming from his pocket. He looked towards Areum's sleeping form next to him to see if his phone had woken her up as well, but she laid still and kept still as he pulled his arm away from around her; instantly missing her warmth and digging into his pocket. He lifted his phone to confusingly stare at the screen to see multiple calls and texts from multiple people.

5 missed calls & 3 texts messages from Shrimp

3 missed calls & 1 text message from Tae

1 missed call & 2 text messages from Namjoon

14 missed calls & 15 texts messages & 3 voicemails from... Mia

Mia? For a moment, Jungkook was sure the sleepiness that was causing his eyes to feel heavy was making him see things. He hadn't heard from Mia in a while and the last time they talked it wasn't exactly a pleasant conversation. It was a huge argument that started because he had threatened to block her number if she continued to blow up his phone with unnecessary bullshit. That happened a few days before the trip to the resort.

He quickly contemplated calling her back just to see if everything was okay but before he'd even made up his mind, his phone was buzzing again with Namjoon's name popping up on the screen. Without any hesitation, he answered with a whisper.

"Jungkook! Hey, sorry to bother you..." Namjoon kind of sounded out of breath and a bit surprised he had picked up the phone? Had something happened at the frat? That would probably explain all the calls. Well, all calls except Mia's. "I was wondering if you were planning on coming back home tonight?" Namjoon spoke fast.

"Uh, I wasn't planning on it? Is everything alright?" Jungkook sat up to close the laptop and tried his best to crawl over Areum so he could plug it into the charger for the night without waking her up.

"No, yeah everything is good!" He tried to assure Jungkook but something in his voice made him sound kind of off or hesitant to say something until he heard a sigh over the phone. "Look man what you do is none of my business, but I thought I'd just let you know your girlfriend is here passed out in your room"

"My what?" Jungkook stiffened and froze just as he was about to climb back into Areum's bed. "I don't have a girlfriend?" He cringes at the thought of a random girl sleeping in his bed, touching his stuff. What? Did they just allow any rando into the frat and believe everything they said? Unless... Unless it wasn't a random person, and it was...? No, it couldn't be...

"She said her name was Mia?" Namjoon confirmed Jungkook's suspicion. Fuck. What was she even doing here? With an annoyed groan, Jungkook quickly located and slipped on his shoes while asking Namjoon to keep an eye on her until he was able to get there.

Thankfully Namjoon agreed to stay with Mia and honestly Namjoon was the only guy in the whole place he trusted to watch his drunk passed-out ex. Jungkook shoved the last of his things into his backpack and started to head out the door. He thought about leaving a note or something to let Areum know why he ended up having to leave, but in that same second his phone buzzed with a text from Namjoon saying Mia had woken up and was now trying to leave while she is still clearly wasted... And how she might have puked on the floor.
