"WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP!!!"

My best friend, Alexis, who goes by Lex, was violently shaking me in an attempt to wake me up. I'm a very heavy sleeper but it was already eight in the morning so of course, I woke up.

"What the hell are you doing?" I mumbled. My mouth was dry from being clamped shut.

"Bangtan just tweeted." She said smugly. Knowing perfectly well any mention of the boys would wake me up better than any energy drink or coffee ever would.

I sat up faster than I should have and felt woozy for a second then instantly reached over to snatch my phone up but it wasn't on my nightstand where I usually leave it.

"Where's my phone?" I asked Lex, looking at her accusingly.

"Why are you asking me?"

"Well you DID just climb through your window and then mine just to wake me up...so where's my phone?"

She started laughing in the middle of my sentence as she rolled onto my floor. I stood up and looked down at her, still expecting an answer.

"Well?!?"

"Okay okay, but first...I have something to tell you." She said hesitantly. I could tell she was excited about something but I couldn't figure out what she would be excited about that required her to take my phone. Definitely nothing kpop related. She's my best friend but we don't expect each other to be identical. She likes the music but she likes kpop just like she likes a few Justin Bieber or Evanescence or My Chemical Romance songs. She listens to it but that doesn't make her a fan but she will still sit and listen to me go completely head over heels about anything. That's why I love her, she's like my sister even though we look nothing alike.

Lex is simple but still very pretty, she's on the chunky side but has very slim features. She a weird mix of...well...white. German, Italian, Swedish, Irish, you name it, she's got it. Her skin is pale and can sometimes get red and blotchy. Her eyes are a very deep greenish hazel and her hair is never the same color for more than two weeks. Today its a harsh shade of silver that transitions into a baby blue. Its long and has a very soft wave to it.

But me on the other hand, I'm a different story, my skin isn't pale but it isn't tan. My skin just looks...normal? Anyways, my hair is a dark blonde and comes down to just past my shoulder blades so I guess its long. My eyes are a deep sea green and can look dark blue in certain angles or lights. Everyone always say my eyes are pretty but I don't argue with them, they are. But I still hate my hair. Its thick and ridiculously curly. Not curly like a black or mixed girls hair but more like a relaxed version of Meridith from that movie Brave. Its a mess. I have slim features like Lex but I'm on the slender side of the spectrum body-wise. I'm not Asian but I have the right body for it, but I also have an okay butt. Lucky me. Led and I are roughly the same height, about 5' 8". And you never ever see one of us without the other, if you do, we are either on the phone or literally a text away.

Some people think soulmates are for couples, like married people. We disagree because Lex and I are soulmates.

"Did you hear me?" Lex snapped me out of my thought process and I looked at her with a blank expression as I tried to remember what she had said.

"No, I'm sorry, I'm still half asleep and wondering where my phone is." I stated with a little bit of sarcasm at the end.

"I SAID you can have your phone back but I have something important to tell you first."

"Okay okay, what's up?"

"You know how BTS was doing that summer sweepstakes?"

Oh yes, I remember. Bangtan was doing a sweepstakes on the back of Mochi jars for the past like, six months. If you enter your information every 24 hours, you get an entry and you get five bonus entries for every extra thing you enter, such as a poem, a fan art, a short story or an essay. Anything. I didn't do it because I've done those stupid sweepstakes over and over and never won, and besides, how creepy would it be to meet your Idols knowing full well that they know you only got there because you totally spent all your free time doing the stupid sweepstakes...creeeppyyy. Anyways, the sweepstakes was that one, only one, fan would get to spend the whole summer (three months to be exact) with BTS in Seoul, South Korea. It would pay for transportation and a hotel room for the entire stay. How. Cool. Is. That.

"Yes", I sighed heavily, "I remember." I was still disappointed knowing I wouldn't be the winner even though I didn't even try. "Why do you ask?"

"That's the surprise." She said, grinning so much she almost looked like the Joker.

"What do you mean?"

"I did the sweepstakes..."

I looked at her, astonished, and I started to ask: "Wha-"

"And I won."
