It's Only Me And You .

- where have you've gone? -

-sunghoon's POV -

- she needs to come back .. but how and where would I find her ? I need to tell her I didn't mean anything I said ..

-Mai's POV-

- I was getting tired of walking around the beach so I decided to start packing up and head to my hotel and call it a night . "Mai?" I hear my name being called in the distance so I turn around to see whom is calling me . " Mai it's me! Taesan !" It was taesan , someone I haven't seen or spoken to for the past 2 years since I've moved back to korea . "Oh .. Tae how are you ? Are you still living here?" I asked shocked to see he still looked the same  . " I'm good , I'm still living here of course but I'm leaving for a couple weeks for my career." He says . " oh that's good ! Where are you going ?" I ask curiously but stunned at the next words he says . " I'm going to Korea I got picked for a boy group at hybe ." I was happy for taesan but I just couldn't express it enough. "Well when are you going , maybe that's the day I'll go with you ." I say , I didn't wanna be alone going back to the same place I left to get away but I have been here for some time . I watch him as he pulls up his online plane ticket on his phone waiting to hear the date that he was leaving . " the 23rd . It's sooner than I thought three days from now .. you must be hungry from swimming, should we go get some food together ?"

- I was sitting in a small but calm pizza shop this afternoon here with my old friend whom I used to enjoy talking to but right now I really wasn't myself.. could he tell ? " Mai where's your phone ? I tried to get in contact with you for the past two years but nothing .. " he questions me still stuffing his face with pizza . I didn't have an answer to tell him , do I tell him I lost his number? Do I tell him I threw my phone in a place that's far away from here and I won't be able is have it again .. "oh .. I'm sorry I got a new number and lost all my contacts.. and then lost my phone .." I say . He suddenly stands up , "come on I'll take you to get a new one . " he says staring down at me .

- the walk down to the Apple Store was silent ... I wanted to communicate more with taesan and know how he really is all this time but the words just don't come out .. "okay so one iPhone 16 in the color pink . Would that be all sir ?" The Apple Store employee asked. I watch as I see taesan nod his head and successfully pay for my device but I feel guilty all of a sudden , do I really deserve this ... "here I put my number already in it so whenever you wanna talk to me just call . " he says handing me the phone . My emotions finally come out slowly allowing me to speak . " you really didn't have to do this I was fine without this ... and plus it's so expensive you should take it back and keep it for you ." I say trying to hand back the phone towards him . " Mai you can't just sit here and be disconnected from the world all the time .. like now you don't seem like yourself , keep the phone and contact someone who will cheer you up ! I don't wanna see you looking down anymore you're making me sad ." I chuckle at his words , " contact someone" but who it's nobody I want to contact .. I think..

- a few minutes later we arrive in front of my place where me and taesan depart off our separate ways .. looking at this phone makes me want to connect back with all my friends and family .. so the first this I do is log in on my instagram page , suddenly over 99+ messages are here in my inbox from my brother , hiyyih , yeji , mark & ... Jake . But none of them are him .. why did I feel so disappointed with him ? Why was I hoping he would contact me .. the most I could do was ignore the fact that he was never gonna contact me and text hiyyih first .

Hiyyih 🐯.

Mai 🐋.
Hiyyih! It's me I'll be flying back home tomorrow morning so I'll see you when I arrive in Korea !

Hiyyih 🐯.
MAI! Girl where have you been !?!?!?! It's been so boring without you .. some people keep on asking for you .. especially Jake ...
Anyways where did you fly out to ?

Mai 🐋.
I was in nyc for a while .. I just needed to clear my head for a while but I should be fine . I'm a little tired so I'll text you when I'm there .

Hiyyih 🐯.
OKI! get some rest see you tomorrow!
Read 11:15 pm

- here I was looking up at the ceiling just thinking and hoping everything would go good tomorrow letting all types of thought flood my head , making in easy for me to drift away to sleep .. I had a long day to prepare for ..

- Jake's POV -

- scrolling has never been this boring .. I wish Mai was here .. I want to talk to her .. suddenly I get a text . It read "she was in nyc .. she's flying back tomorrow and she wants me to meet her at the airport if you want to come you could .. night ." It was hiyyih , I told her to keep me updated to Mai if anything happened. I screamed probably frightening my members but I was so happy I would finally get to see her again . "SHES BACK !! I GET TO SEE HER!!! " Niki turns around from his bed looking concerned ... "who's back and WHY ARE YOU YELLING ITS 12 AM !" He says still looking concerned and confused . " MAI IS BACK SHES FLYING BACK TO KOREA TOMORROW MORNING AND IM GONNA SEE HER !" I watch as Niki's face turns annoyed turning back towards the wall falling back asleep but I didn't care , as long as I knew she was coming back i was fine .

- Sunghoon's POV -

- is he serious?... I heard the whole thing .. could she really be Coming back ? Should I go see her ? No ... she probably doesn't want to see me .. but I want to see her .. forget it .. I turn tossing my body off the bed and make my way towards the window where every star was visible . Looking at the stars reminded me of how she looked that night of Jake's party and it always made me smile. Oh Mai...

- Mai's POV -

- the plane ride was smooth and surprisingly I got to sit next to taesan and we finally had a proper conversation . But then the flight was over . I was here back in Korea the place I left from but I wanted to come back positive and not think about things that were now the past .. walking out the door me and taesan make our way out where we see the paparazzi snapping photos of him and we both start laughing . " wow Mr taesan your very famous !" I joke around that when I hear my name being called from a distance . It's hiyyih ! I tell taesan that I was going around the corner where I see hiyyih and give her the biggest hug . " oh Mai .. I missed you so much ! Don't run away again" she says patting me on the back .. suddenly I couldn't contain my tears anymore and let everything out mumbling saying sorry to hiyyih , she was definitely laughing at me but it felt like I haven't seen her in years . I wipe my tears but they still manage to come down and that's when I see Jake walking over to me . "Mai you were gone for a while.. are you okay ?" He asks . I nod my head while trying to wipe my face and then taesan comes over . " Mai I called us a Uber, we go five minutes" he says . Everyone is looking confused not knowing the boy that's infront of me .. "oh sorry tae I'm going with my friends but do you wanna meet up later tonight? I'll show you a good cafe " I tell him honestly. He nodded and hugs he one last time before walking off into the paparazzi lights but something sticks out in the distance... I know this person ...
