Jeongguk's 1st Person POV

"Kook! Just clean up and get ready to leave! Isn't Cassie going to be here soon?" Hoseok asks me as he stands right outside of my work station. I had just finished doing a quick walk-in tattoo. I should really start tidying up my area before I have to leave with Cassie to pick up Yoongi at the airport.

"I am, right now! It won't take me long! Sana can keep Cassie company when she arrives at the shop." I tell Hoseok as I wipe down the tattoo chair.

A few minutes pass, and it's a little past 6pm on a Monday night. I'm close to being done sweeping in and outside my work station. Felix was chatting me up while I was cleaning my area that it took a little longer than usual to finish my tasks.

"Kook! Cassie is here!" Sana yells from her receptionist desk. I look up and over at that direction and see Cassie standing in front of the desk counter. When I lock eyes at her, I wave and she returns my wave with a finger heart.

That woman has my heart, that's for sure.

I sweep debris into a dustpan and go back to dispose on the waste and place the broom and dustpan in our cleaning supply closet. After, I quickly wash my hands in the staff bathroom and then I head back to my work station, and grab my backpack out of the bottom drawer of the work bench cabinet. I sling one strap of my backpack over my right shoulder. I say goodbye to Felix, Hoseok and Irene and then I head to the front where Cassie is having an animated conversation with Sana.

"Yes, I think Jeongguk and Yoongi would have fun at the festival! Just text me more details about it!" Cassie tells Sana.

"What are you two talking about?" I say to them as I stand next to my girlfriend. I heard the word festival come out of her mouth and I am instantly curious about their conversation.

"I was telling Cassie about the Punk in Drublic Festival in Ventura that is going to be on a Sunday, about a month from now. Classic punk bands are playing and there is going to be craft beer and amazing food trucks! It's almost a two hour drive, but I think it'll be worth the trip! I know you and Cassie love the bands playing. You should come with me and Noah!" Sana speaks, selling the whole idea of going to a festival on us.

"Yoongi does love his craft beer. We'll run it by him. I'm sure he'll be up for it." I tell Sana as I gently get a hold of Cassie's hand and we intertwine our fingers.

"I hope he is! I miss going to festivals and this sounds fun," Cassie says enthusiastically while looking up at me.

"I'm sure he will. We'll just bribe him by promising all the beer he wants at the festival," I jokingly say to her.

"Let me know, and Noah can get tickets! But, anyway, I won't keep you guys here any longer! Go on ahead so you can pick up Yoongi!" Sana says in a bubbly tone as she waves her hand to shoo us out.

"Okay, we'll let you know! Have a good night, Sana!" Cassie matches Sana's tone and I wave goodbye as she and I head towards the front of the tattoo shop to leave.

Cassie is the one to drive us since she had dropped me off at work early this morning before she headed to the salon.

The drive felt like it took forever. Yes, the traffic was crappy as usual, but it felt like a long drive, not just because of traffic. Sitting in a car with my anxious thoughts made a the drive feel like it was dragging on.
