Chapter 8

Author's note: Same as before, for those of you innocent cinnamon rolls out there that read this even though I said it was 18 plus (*cough* 15 plus) I'm writing smut free chapters too. So just skip the chapter after this because that's where the smut is. I suggest reading both 'cause this chapter explains more about what happens with her and her manager and the SMUT kind of just skips it and you're left to assume that everything went smoothly. And both chapters will end with the same thing so if you only read one the outcome will be the same, if it doesn't then the chapters continue their own separate ways as "smut" and "clean".

"You don't have to leave. I-I want you to stay here with me."
I say clutching his hand.
"Y/N..."
He says holding me tight.
His phone rings and he looks at me.
"It's fine, answer it."
I say faintly smiling. I can hear Yoongi in the phone.
"Where are you?"
Yoongi asks.
"With... Kristy."
He replies.
"What do you mean you're "with Kristy"? What could you possibly be doing with her that's more important than practice!?"
Yoongi shouts at Jungkook over the phone.
"Practice... I forgot."
Jungkook says casting his eyes down.
"Well if you don't hurry up we're starting without you."
Yoongi says.
"Hey! Don't be so hard in him."
I hear jimin say.
Jungkook hangs up the phone with his fingers still entwined with mine.
"Go,"
I say.
"What? No. I'm not leaving you."
He says.
"You're not leaving forever. I'll be fine."
I say pulling him up from the couch.
I pull him to the door and open it for him.
"Go on,"
I shove him out the door and close it before he can say anything.
"Why? Why am I always a problem. I just met him a month ago and he's already putting me before them."
I say biting my lips to keep the tears from flowing. I cover my eyes, though no one is there I feel like I can't let my pain show.

I'm stronger than this. I won't let such a stupid problem get to me.

Despite my efforts and reasoning the tears drip down my face anyway.
"Ugh."
I wipe them away.

It will probably be a few hours, better get comfortable.

I hear a knock on the door.
"Who could that be?"
I open the door again and see manager Ram.
I gasp.
"I see you ordered food,"
She says raising an eyebrow.

Damn.

I cast my eyes down, Manager Ram welcomes herself into the dorm. I back up into the living room and she sits me down in the couch.
"Do you know how rude that was? Her manager is a professional just like me."
She scolds.
I nod silently as she continues to speak.
Her phone buzzes violently and she is forced to stop.
She answers and her expression changes from that of a power figure to that of a saddened child. She mouths 'we'll talk later' before leavening the dorm again.
"Well, at least she left the food."
I say, trying to keep focus on the bright side if things. Sighing, I open the foam box and take a deep breath through my nose. "Smells nice,"
I say. Thinking of everything that is happened I've lost my appetite. I close the box and put it into my fridge.

Well, I suppose I've got something in my fridge now.

I think with a chuckle.

I watched movies for a few hours and at some point I noticed the time.
"It's late."
I say, turning off the movie and walking over to the window.
"It's dark as well."
I utter. My stomach growls.

I really aught... to... eat

My vision blurs and I fall against the wall for support. I try to scream, yet no sound comes out... then it turns black.

I find myself being violently shaken.

How long has it been?

"Ah, finally, you are awake" a male voice from beside me says. My eyes slowly flutter open.
"Jungkook... ?"
I ask slowly.
"Sorry. Not Jungkook."
Jin says.
"Oh."
I reply.
"He was so worried when he found you like this. He wanted to make me go get you something, but I made him go." Jin explains.
I sit up so that I'm level with Jin.
Just as I do the door bursts open and Jungkook comes into my vision. Once we make eye contact he drops the bag in his hand and he rushes over to me. He hugs me tightly and buries his face into my shoulder.
"I was so worried!" He says.

Is he... crying?

"Jungkook, I'm sor—"
I say, he cuts me off.
"I'm just glad you're okay. I couldn't bare it if something happened to you. Because I care about you, I like you Y/N." he says.
My eyes widen and he looks at me straight in the face.
