Fated To Love You [COMPLETE]

Chapter 8- Got7

Lina had wondered off from Mrs Harrison, leaving her to talk to her friends. She decided to take some snaps of the people at the party, since she needed portrait pictures, because a lot of her photography was based on landscapes and views and Mr Park had told her they needed a photographer for one of his groups.

Lina assumed she would have to be taking pictures of people, if she got the job, so she decided to use some of today's photography, as example pieces to send to Mr Park.

Whilst Lina was taking a snap of two couples, someone spoke in the microphone. Lina looked up from behind her camera lens to see it was the hostess of the party. She spoke in Korean so Lina just stood and watched. Then she noticed people started sitting down at tables.

"Oh no.. Where's Mum?" Lina began to panic as she tried looking for her. Soon seeing her at the table they had last sat on, Lina hurried over to join her Mum. "What's going on?" She whispered to Mrs Harrison. "She's just welcoming everyone.. Oh and now she's saying before dinner is served, there's going to be a special performance by one of Park Jinyoung's group." Mrs Harrison told her daughter.

Lina watched up ahead as Mr Park came to the microphone now and spoke some words. All she got from it was the word "Got7" since Mr Park shouted it out more than once. That word felt familiar to Lina. She knew she had heard of it somewhere before, but she couldn't remember where.

Everyone started clapping, so Lina decided to join in. The lights went off, leaving the hall dark and the claps soon died down. Everything went silent for a couple of seconds before music played.

First it was the beat and then a spotlight came on, only shinning onto one person with bleached blonde hair, as they said "Okay. Let me get in on this one! Let's Go!"

Lina was taken by suprise that it was in English. Then another person with brown hair was lit up by a spotlight "And we go Bam Bam Bam Bi Dam Bi Da Bi Dam Bam" and then both boys repeated that bit again as the two boys in the spotlight started dancing. Then all the lights switched on, as the blonde guy said "Seven, OS!"

Lina's eyes took a couple of seconds to ajust to the light and then she saw there were quit a lot of boys dancing and singing. Now they were singing in Korean.

She tried to count how many they were, but they kept moving around. Also, their table was the 4th row from the stage and other people's heads came in the way, so Lina couldn't really see their faces.

Lina looked to Mrs Harrison. "Mum, if this is the group that I'm meant to be working with later, maybe I should try getting some snaps of them now and I can show it to Mr Park?" She shouted over the singing to her mother. Mrs Harrison gave her a thumbs up and gestured with her hands to hurry and go.

Lina smiled and looked to see where she could stand. She saw an empty space near a pillar next to one of the tables at the front. She quickly got up from her seat and weaved her way between the tables, keeping her head low to not get in the way of the people watching the performance.

Once she got to the pillar she picked up her camera that was dangling around her neck, held it in both her hands and switched it on. Lina changed the settings, so that she was able to capture fast movements, since the boys were moving around and dancing. Soon she started snapping away, not really paying attention to the faces.

Then a girl appeared and Lina removed the camera away from her face as she watched the boys dance around the girl and flirt with her as they continued their song. Lina's eyes focused on the bleached blonde head boy and then suddenly recognised who it was. Jackson? It can't be.. Can it?  Lina thought.

She bought her camera back up infront of the view of her eyes. She zoomed closer in on the blonde guy with her camera and took a snap. Lina quickly removed her camera away from her eyes  and stared at the picture on the screen. Oh my gosh! It's him! It's JACKSON! Lina looked up from her camera, at Jackson dancing and her excitment instantly died down and was replaced with a sharp pain in her chest as her chest began to feel tight. His hands were all over the girl as he sang; "One Time Dasi Hanbeon. Two Times Neoneun Naui VIP" (One Time, One More Time. Two Times you're my VIP)

Why am I.. feeling like this? They're all doing it.. but why do I feel so angry when he's touching her! NO! GET YOUR HANDS OFF HER!! Lina screamed in her head as she felt the heat rise, her palms sweaty now as she realised they were balled into fists beside her.

It came to the end of the song and the boys all stood still, as cheers and claps erupted the hall. Jackson turned his head towards Lina and recognised it was her as he stared right at her, his eyes not wavering. His hair was long and coming over his eyebrows, his puppy brown eyes stared as if it was looking right into her soul and that cheeky smile. Damn you Jackson with that cute smile, she thought as she glared at him.

She was snapped out of her thoughts, when someone sat at the front table tapped her shoulder and Lina looked back at the person. She was an older women, probably in her late 30's and she was gesturing Lina to go back to her seat. "Bieneh.. Bieneh" (Sorry ..Sorry) she apologised. Looking back over at the boys once more, Lina searched for Jackson but he was already walking over and sitting at his table with Mr Park. Lina sighed. Turning around she too headed back to her seat, as she felt her heart drumming against her chest.

"Did you get any good snaps?" Mrs Harrison asked her daughter. Lina quickly blinked out of her thoughts and put on a smile. "Yes. I got lost of great snaps." She sat down in her seat and looked at her camera screen, as she pulled up the recent photo, wanting to double check wether it was really Jackson, or if her mind was playing tricks on her. It was for sure Jackson, but without the cap, which is why she wasn't able to recognise him at first glance.

Soon, waiters came over to the table and began to hand out drinks, but the food was going to be self service. Lina watched as people hurried to get to the food, as did Mrs Harrison. Lina was pushed behind by the crowed, loosing sight of her mother amongst the people.

"Eomma!" Lina called out as she began to panic slightly, her heart beating fast against her chest, feeling out of place amongst all these people. Plus she wasn't good in tight spaces and crowds because of her small frame, she felt trapped amongst everyone else.

Suddenly she felt someone grab her right upper arm and yanked her out of the crowed. She continued to be pulled by the person, now recognising it to be one of the boys who had performed, but it wasn't Jackson. "Hey! Let go of me! Where are you taking me!" Lina pulled her arm back, but the persons grip became tighter around her skin.

She was pulled outside into the dark, cold night and the person suddenly let her arm go and she winced, rubbing the place he had just held onto. "Sorry about that. I didnt hurt you did I?" The guy asked in a slight American accent as he touched her arm, examining it. Lina looked at the person wide eyed. She seemed to have done a lot of that tonight. He speaks English too? She thought.

Lina's facial expression suddenly changed to glaring at the dark blonde head boy and she slapped his hand away from her arm. "Well, maybe you should have thought of that, before almost yanking my out of there like that!" she yelled. Lina began to feel light headed and closed her eyes for a second, before she began to take in sharp breaths, realising she was finding it difficult to breath. Lina realised she was going to have a panic attack.

"You seemed like you needed help getting.. Hey! Are you okay?" The guy asked and Lina's eyes snapped open now, but whatever the boy had just said to her was muffled. She couldn't understand what he was saying over the thudding of her heart beat in her ears, as her heart hammered loudly.

Lina's whole body began to sweat and her legs became weak as she felt a rush of different emotions. She reached out and grabbed onto the guy's jumper. "I.. I need to sit." Was all she said and suddenly her feet were lifted off the ground as the guy picked her up in his arms.

Lina felt too weak to protest and tell him to put her down, so she let him carry her. She started to whimper as her whole body was trembling. Lina curled into a ball against the guys chest and suddenly she burst into tears, wailing as she was flooded with a ton of different emotions which she couldn't control...
