For the first time since everything had gone wrong JK slept well, his vlog to Tae had taken about half an hour and he'd almost felt like he had been talking to him directly.
The decision to fight or not had been settled.. Fight!! . He didn't know how he would win yet but at least his choice had been made and he would stick by it. He had absolute faith that Tae would think the same.
He'd got up and gone about his usual daily routine and then eaten, he was now sat by the patio doors admiring the beautiful sea view and drinking a coffee.
JK looked down at the now very wrinkly contract in his hands. First things first, he thought establish a presence, be seen, he guessed Tae would have been told the same and looked forward to seeing glimpses of him on line.
He called for his security team to come into his room. He knew he couldn't just wonder down to the beach and start parasailing.. Every thing he did had to be planned with military precision.
The meeting with security took about an hour, after which JK went down to the hotels gym to work out.
"I needed this" he thought " he'd been lifting weights for a while and his muscles had the familiar burn and his thoughts were getting clearer and clearer, he enjoyed working out, the adrenaline, the rush, the freedom.
After weights came cardio and he hopped up onto a stationary bike and peddled. The start of a melody kept popping into his head and he hummed bits of it to himself.
The occasional lyrical sentence also.
This is how he wrote music, the songs would come to him in bits and eventually he'll sit in his studio and put the bits together like a jigsaw.
Having finished in the gym he lingered just before going into the changing room know that a couple of the other guests had spotted him, they hadn't come over but he could see they were going to try and snap a picture of him, he'd already mentioned to his body guard to let them.
After breakfast in the restaurant ' more eyes to see him' he left for the beach.
He'd booked several activities for today and it was time to do his job.
First things first though was a light jog along the waters edge, he was wearing a black long sleeved uv body protector under a white t shirt and red knee length shorts, cap and sunglasses, not too obvious but not the best disguise in the world, he chuckled to himself as he set off.
The beach wasn't that busy, but then it was almost winter. There was a cold snap in the air but it was still sunny and dry, further up he could see an older couple walking a dog.
He wondered if they'd recognise him.. He supposed even if they didn't they'd know he was someone by the security running behind him.. He slowed down as he got closer and they looked up and smiled.. He came to a stop and bowed his head in a respectful greeting and said good morning, they nodded back. Their dog, a beautiful golden retriever was pulling at the lead trying to come and say hello and after asking permission he bent down to pet him.
"excuse me," the lady asked, but are you not one of those boy band people? I'm sure my grand daughter has a picture of you on her phone?
JK smiled and said yes he was in fact part of a group and then offered to let them take a picture knowing that their grand daughter would tweet that accoss the world..
Parasailing was next on his mental check list, he had had to book the whole business out for a few hours as he couldn't really just mingle in a crowd of people, things got scary when too many people knew who he was.
He'd decided to use this time to do a vlog for Army's, not quite vlive like Bang wanted but it was a start,
He strapped on his go pro to his helmet, and got his phone out.. He turned the video camera on to record and said a few words.
"Hi Army's" he crossed his thumb and finger over making a little love heart sign and sent it to his fans. He thanked them for their continued love and support and talked about about the tour he'd just finished. He showed them the view and explained he had treated himself to a holiday, expressed disappointment that none of his group mates could come but said it was fun anyway.
After he was strapped into the harnesses and taken on board a small speed boat, he strapped a body go pro cam onto himself as well so he could speak at the same time as record what he was seeing.
He pressed record as the boat sped away from the shore and described his excitement as it was happening. Once sufficiently out he was asked to sit at the edge of the back of the boat and they hooked his harness up to giant parachute type canopy.
The boat sped away and the wind took the canopy, surprisingly gently lifting JK up into the air.. He temporarily forgot everything for a minute as he was in awe of both the feelings engulfing him and the views. They literally took his breath away, and then the thought "Tae would be so scared by this but ide love to take him and show him how good it feels" crossed his mind, a frown marred his beautiful face and for a second pain was visible in his eyes then he remembered he had a job to do and smiled for the camera, made whoop noises and generally shouted with joy.
By the time he arrived back to the shore a crowd had started to gather, word of him being there had spread quicker than he had thought.
His security team had seen the crowd growing and had called for reinforcements and had even brought a range rover down the beach to pick him up.
They surrounded him as soon as his feet hit the solid ground and protected him, fans were snapping pictures and screaming JK!! JK!! he even thought he heard some one shout where's Tae but it was all over very quickly, he'd managed a few nods and waves before he'd been placed into the vehicle.
Back at the hotel his phone rang and even though he knew it couldn't be Tae his stupid heart still jumped.
It was his manager, he'd heard about his temper tantrum ' his words' and wanted to know where JKs head was at now.. " snitch!!" JK thought shooting daggers at his body guard, the body guard simply shrugged and removed himself from the room.
He spoke with his manager for a few minutes, told him he had raw video footage to send him and then the PR team could edit, cut and upload. This seemed to placate his manager somewhat and he hung up.
JK on the other hand suddenly felt angry again, but did some breathing exercise and managed to calm himself down.
He ate a solitary lunch and contemplated the afternoon, now his location was known when going for even a jog would be difficult, he was grateful that the activity for the afternoon was deep sea fishing.. Hard for fans and paparazzi to follow there.
He let his lunch go down and sat on the sofa, phone in hand he looked through , twitter and weverse,
Several members had posted, pictures, playing golf, inside a studio, with pets, and then there he was, his Tae standing smiling next to a pretty young girl, a pang of jealousy ran through him but not because he thought Tae had enjoyed time with a pretty girl but because the pretty girl had got to spend time with his man.
He put the phone down and sighed. The day was only half over and he felt exhausted. Smiling when your heart was breaking was hard work.
