Spotlight Lovers (그것은 한국에있다.)

Chapter 3

Warmth... is all I feel. I'm scared to open my eyes.

I keep them squeezed shut.
"Are... you okay?"
I hear someone say.
I slowly open one eye.
"Tae... ?"
I ask.
"Yeah, but are you okay?"
He asks again.
"Y-yeah."
I say slowly finding my footing again.
He stands up too and rests his hand on my shoulder.
The door is wide open and someone comes down the hall. They see V.
"Oh, hyung!"
Kookie shouts.
He stops in the doorway.
"I know you... you're that girl from last night!"
Jungkook says blushing.
"Oh? What happened last night?"
V asks.
I blush too and cast my eyes down.
"N-nothing."
Jungkook says.
"Okay! Let's go eat lunch."
V says walking out of the room. Jungkook bows to me again and closes the door behind him.

W-w-what just happened!?

I take a moment to let everything settle in. Taking a deep breath I push my hair behind my ears. I take out my phone to call Ji but she won't answer. I go to send her a text about the news I also asked if she could bring my stuff. Allowing the disappointment wash over me my stomach begins to growl.
"Ugh! I'm so hungry."
I say.
"I'll go somewhere nearby."
I say with a wince because of the pain in my stomach. After closing the door I reach for the keys behind me but they're not there.

What!? I know I left them there.
They... they took my key!

I look around frantically but they're no where to be found.
"JEON JUNGKOOK!"
I yelled.

That was his full name right?

I wait for a response but hear nothing. A few minutes after waiting for a response, a woman comes charging down the hall.

Oh no. I probably shouldn't have yelled.

"Y/N! If you embarrass yourself this early in your career you'll never reach fame!"
The woman scolds me.
"Do I know you?"
I ask giving her a puzzled look.
"I'm Bo-ram, your personal manager."
She says still irradiated.
"Oh! Sorry I was just looking for him beca—."
She cuts me off.
"No! I refuse to have you do such things. You're here to work not fangirl."
She snaps.

Just... smile and wave.

"Yes, of course. I'm sorry."
I say.
"it's fine, just don't do it again. Here, I left something in your room."
She says opening the door.
"Huh? You didn't lock it?"
She looks back at me.

That's what I was trying to tell you!

"Hehe. Yeah I'm forgetful sometimes."
I say smiling.

Jeez I'm just making myself out to be an idiot.

She opens the door and heads inside. Walking over to the kitchen counter she smiles. She then picks something up.
"Here."
She says handing me something.
I turn it in my hands.
"A bracelet?"
I ask.
"Yes but look, it says your stage name."
She explains.
I look at the charm.
"What does it say? The font in hard t read"
I say.
"font?  Whatever... it says 'Kristy'."
She says.
"Kristy... ? My stage name is Kristy?"
I ask giving her a slightly puzzled look.
"Yes. Since you're half American we figured we'd give you an American stage name."
She says smiling.

They named me Kristy just 'cause I'm half white? I feel like that's kind of messed up. Whatever, play along Y/N.

"Woah! Kristy is so pretty. I look forward to being called that!"
I say cheerfully.
"Mhm. Have you eaten lunch yet?"
Manager Ram asks.
"Um, no."
I say clutching my stomach.
"We better fix that."
She says walking out of the room. I close the door behind me and pretend to lock it so she won't scold me again. She stares me down, I just smile at her trying my best to look like I'm locking a door. After I'm done we walk down the hall for a little while but then stop at a door.
"Alright, you better not freak out. Just act natural."
She says.
"Okay?"
I respond.
She knocks on the door.
The door opens.
"Oh hello Bo-ram!"
A guy says.
"Hello."
She says.
"Come on in."
The guy says stepping out of the way. We walk in and to my surprise I lock eyes with a familiar face.

"Eh!?"
