While they were gone, Georgiana realised how helpless she was. She was right-handed, but since she couldn't use her right arm, everything took twice as long. She wasn't looking forward to getting ready for bed.

However, being in ENHYPEN's apartment distracted her from her lack of mobility. It was weird being in a strange apartment that belonged to someone else. Even more so that they weren't there. She didn't know what to do with herself. She wanted to sit somewhere more comfortably but she didn't want to invade the public space without permission.

Georgiana looked at Heeseung's bed. Her soulmate's bed which he had given up for her. Which she will be sleeping in tonight and every night until she goes home. She had never slept in someone else's bed. Maybe a friend's when she was younger, but never a man's. She tried not to think about it too much.

Grabbing her bag from the floor next to her, she started to push the chair across the room. She was glad they had sat her on a chair with wheels, so she didn't have to walk across the room. It was a little slow as she only had one good leg, but it was worth it when she lowered herself into the bed and took the weight off of her injuries.

For a while, she just lay there processing the past twenty-four hours. Finding her soulmates made her happy, but also worried and afraid. She didn't know what was going to happen next. She was meant to be going back to England, but how could she when her soulmates were here in Korea? The idea of unrooting her life and moving across the world was scary, but it was also a little exciting. Her life would be very different if she lived with her soulmates.

She was on her phone trying to change her flight when she heard the front door open, and an unfamiliar voice called out.

"Hello?"

"Hello?"

A man she assumed was a member of staff appeared in the doorway. He held up a bag.

"Heeseung. Chicken."

"Chicken? For me?"

The man nodded and held the bag out unsure what to do with it.

As much as Georgiana had wanted to invade the public space of the apartment, she also didn't want to eat in Heeseung's bedroom. Whether he would mind or not, she didn't like eating in bedrooms and definitely not on beds.

"Table? Kitchen?"

She tried to gesture to outside the room to overcome the language barrier. When the man pointed to somewhere behind him, she nodded, and he disappeared from the doorway.

With a sigh, Georgiana thought about how she was going to get to her food. The chair was close by, so she started by heaving herself into it and then pushed herself over to the door.

Poking her head through the door, she looked to see what the situation was. She hadn't looked around when they came in earlier, but now she could see the kitchen and a table and chairs. She tried rolling the chair through the doorway, but it got stuck on a ridge on the floor separating the rooms.

With a sigh, she reached for her crutch and slowly hopped from the bedroom door to the kitchen chairs. The staff member who had brought her food had pulled out a chair at the table, gotten out a plate, and filled a glass with water. There were a few wobbles, but she made it to the table and thanked the staff member before he left.

The chicken was delicious, unsurprisingly. Nothing could beat Korean fried chicken, and it cheered her up immensely to eat something so comforting. She watched a drama on her phone while she ate. She ended up sitting at the table for a while until she got uncomfortable and went to lie down in Heeseung's room again.

A few hours later, she was making her way back from the bathroom when she lost her balance. She expected to go crashing to the floor and braced herself for the pain, but it never came. Instead, she was hovering above the floor, held in a pair of strong arms. Looking up she was mesmerised by what she saw.

Sunghoon had caught her.

They stared at each other for a while. Time seemed to slow as they both processed what was happening. They were soulmates.
