Bucket Hat

Soundcheck Day 2

I wake up feeling like I got the best sleep of my life. I stretch my arms to the ceiling and take a deep breath to get my lungs going. I look up at the ceiling and smile recalling my moment with Jungkook last night. I give a tiny squeal and put my hands on my chest to feel my racing heart. I turn to see if Kayla is awake yet and am greeted with my little sister staring at me with a shit eating grin on her face. "Soooo big sister, how did it go after I left last night?" I sit up and throw my pillow at her, which she caught. "You know very well nothing happened, I was back 30 minutes after you and I told you we just kissed!" She sits up and put my pillow in her lap and shrugs. "It can only take 5 minutes if you work it right." I could kill her! "Jesus Kay!! I didn't sleep with him!.....GOD! Your mind is foul." She laughs and gets off her bed. "No sis, my mind is 27, almost the same age as your lover boys mind." With that she winks and goes to the bathroom.

I grab my phone and see that I have a few missed texts. Two from our mom, just making sure we're having fun and ok. And one from Jungkook. It's only 8:30am, he's awake already??

Good morning beautiful. I hope you slept well. Thank you for coming to me yesterday and for making my night perfect. I will find you during soundcheck and the show. Are you going to be in the same spot?

Ahhhh, he is so cute! He sent this over an hour ago, I quickly text him back.

Good morning handsome. I slept perfectly, I hope you got enough sleep and I didn't keep you up too late. Yes, our seats are the same today, we better get the same spot because I paid a small fortune for the tickets lol. I can't wait to see you. 💜

Kayla comes out from the bathroom and I jump up to go in, dropping my phone on my bed. "Someone is awful chipper. Did lover boy send you a text? I heard your phone go off a while ago." I smile and cover my face with my hands. "Kay! He's just the sweetest guy! It's like unreal! HE is like unreal." She walks up and hugs me. "I love seeing you smile Ella. You never smile anymore. Not like this. I knew this trip would be life changing." I grin and say, "I'm getting a shower. Then we can go eat and head to soundcheck." "Ooh, I wonder of any of the members will remember us? Well, we know JK will but what about, say, RM. Man was he fucking sexy!" I roll my eyes but laugh at my sisters crude but hilariously honest words. "I don't know, I guess we'll see. And what about Suga? Have you changed bias'?" She mockingly grabs her chest and cries out, "hell no! Min Yoongi will forever be my one and only." I can't help but laugh at her over dramatics as I go grab an outfit to wear.

After we're ready we head down to the hotel lobby to head out to lunch. When down there we see more people than you'd think would be around again, filling the lobby and entrance. "We know what they're all here for. Trying to sneak a peek at the guys. I want to go out and scream, tough shit bitches, you ain't gonna see them! But guess what? I had dinner with them and Kim fucking Namjoon kissed my hand! And this bitch right here has Jungkook whipped for her already!" I slapped her repeatedly. "You better never!! We signed that NDA and I think they knew they could trust us. We can't break that so be quiet." She slaps me back. "Shut the hell up El and quit hitting me, I'm just kidding. I won't tell a soul I had a beer with BTS, RM kissed my hand, and my sister has swapped spit with JK a few times. That's our little dirty secret." I laugh at her once again crude remarks. We decide to walk to a nearby restaurant for lunch and hear screams as we are in front of the hotel. We see girls running to the left so we walk that way to see if we can catch a glimpse of the commotion we know has to be BTS related. Sure enough, we then see 3 black vans pull out from the side of the hotel onto the street. Girls scream even more, yelling each members names and taking pictures. We look l, and one of the back windows on the second van comes down a little. I see a hand pop out and put up a finger heart. I know those tattooed fingers anywhere. I smile when I see it and the girls going nuts at the sight. This will be blowing up on Twitter for sure. Not even a minute later my phone goes off. I open it to see it's Jungkook. I read it, giddy like a little girl, so my sister bends to read what he wrote.
