Neighbors with Benefits // BTS

Awake

June 1st

"Help, someone! Help me!" I cried out, running on the sidewalks. Arthur only smirked at me, taking his time to get me was his huge steps that I couldn't out run. He got closer by the minute and the bystanders ignored us as if it was a childish game of cops and robbers. I ran into an alley way where it was completely dark and rusty. When I turned around, Arthur was there with Mei appearing behind him with my necklace. 

"You didn't obey me, Felicia. I'm so disappointed in you." Mei dangled my necklace as a taunt. 

"Give it back!" I shouted. Arthur prevented me from moving any closer to her. Instead, I kept walking backward. Without any hesitation, they kept walking forward. Laughing at me with their facial expressions. I could hear my mother's voice laughing along with Mei and Arthur in the background. They trapped me in the dead end of the alley. Their shadows began to swallow mine till I was in their eternal nightmare. My screams were muted as I looked what lied ahead in front of me. BTS, all having a great time as they passed this unknown incident. As if I never existed in their lives. 

"Ah!" I shot out from my bed. I looked around me, and I realized I was still in the hotel. 

Just a dream. No, a nightmare. A horrible nightmare. That nightmare I prayed that it shall not come to pass. I felt some sweat dripping from my forehead under my bangs. I got up from my bed when the clock read 8:03 AM. It was time for me to get out of this place. I wouldn't have to worry anymore; BTS would be coming back to Baby Bell Street. 

After I got all of the hygiene stuff out of the way, I wore the same blue dress as I did when I left my house. I packed my things into my pink bag and grabbed the hotel key with me. 

Knock, knock. 

I averted my attention to the door hearing the echoes of a knocking sound once more. Just when I was about to leave. I released my stuff near my door and opened it. 

"Oh, wrong door. Sorry." He apologized with a half bow and turned away. 

"It's okay. . ." 

My eyes widened when I recognized Yoongi walking away from my door. He stopped and looked back at me. "Wait. . . is that you?" He looked so tired but it was funny in the end when he realized a few seconds later. What shocked me was that he was awake at such an early time in the morning. 

"Yes. . .?" I rubbed my hair with a smile. So much for the surprise. . .

"Felicia!" Yoongi exclaimed. He ran up to with a smile. "Wow, you're here? Since when?" 

"Not too long ago," I answered. 

"Hyung! You ruin the surprise!" Jungkook busted his door open with his luggage. I'm guessing he eavesdropped our short conversation. Yoongi crossed his arms as his smile disappeared into thin air. 

"I went to the wrong door on accident." He shrugged without looking guilty. 

"Well, there's still Hoseok, Namjoon, Jimin, and Jin. . . You can just act natural then." Jungkook said. 

Um, about Jimin. . .

"I was going to ask if you have any extra snacks," Yoongi said. 

"Nope, I ate it all." Jungkook grinned. "Plus, there's gonna be breakfast." 

"Oh, I forgot." Yoongi sighed and went back into his room. "I'm going back to sleep now." 

"You're gonna miss breakfast though. . ." 

Yoongi ignored his last sentence and closed the door. I turned to Jungkook, who glanced at me with the corners of his eyes. 

"Good morning. . ." I said. 

"Good morning, Felicia. You should stay inside your room till we all leave our rooms for breakfast. I'll knock on your door to know when to come out, until then." Jungkook pushed my back to my door. "Stay inside." 

". . .Alright. . ." I better not miss breakfast because of this. I wondered how long would it take for Yoongi to wake up? 

O~~~~~~~O

An hour passed. Just an hour and I'm starving. 

I laid flat on my bed with my arms spread to each side of the bed. This was taking so long just to be a surprise. I shouldn't be complaining, this was way better than going back to my own house. I couldn't believe I ran away from my own house. I'm not sure if I was ready for the consequences because of this. Would my necklace be lost forever from Mei? Would they show that video to BTS? What would happen to me? 

"Felicia! You can come out now!" I heard the excitement in Jungkook's voice just from my bed to the door. I quickly got up and grabbed my pink bag with me to leave my hotel room for good. I opened the door to see Jungkook standing in front of me with a black hoodie and a black pair of pants. 

"You must be starving," Jungkook said. 

I nodded, feeling a tiny bit flustered. 

"They have tasty waffles. You should try making some." 

"If you. . . move out of the way." I said with a hint of irritation. Jungkook laughed and moved his body away from the door, making me leaving my room for good. We walked together to the first floor of the Comfort Inn. My heart leaped out of nervousness. I'm going to meet the rest of the members. After such a long time, I'm not sure if I could handle my feelings.  

Jungkook entered the dining area first then me. I just wanted to close my eyes as if I was about to get dropped off a helicopter. I saw the group eating and talking amongst each other. They still didn't notice me yet. There wasn't a lot of people because it was a Thursday. 

"Hey, Jungkookie. You're back." Jin said. That moment when he said his name, I quickly turned my back away from the voice. My emotions were getting to me. This was so good to be true. 

"Yep, guess who else?" I felt Jungkook grabbing my shoulders as he spun me around so that my face would catch their eyes. Immediately I was stared down from their shocked expressions. Namjoon got out from his chair and his mouth made an "o". Yoongi was acting surprised, along with Taehyung. Hoseok looked like he was about to scream. Jimin had a really giant smile on his face. And Jin. . . Oh, Jin. His face was stuffed with food, it was difficult for him to make a reaction. I accidentally let out a laugh that was caught from the members, which stopped their freezing moments. 

"Felicia! Oh my god!!" Hoseok screamed from the top of his lungs. 

"Are you real?" Namjoon eyed me, still in shock. 

"Surprise~" Jungkook patted my shoulders. 

Jin also got up from his seat after he swallowed his food. "Jungkook, I knew all along you were a magician." 

"Yep, I do magic." 

I saw Jimin getting up from his seat to get another chair for their table. "You can sit here," Jimin said to me. 

I realized I was still in place, now starting to move my jelly legs. I stopped halfway to my chair when I felt tears coming down my cheeks. I was so happy, I couldn't even talk. No extra hiding, no major sorrow. 

"Don't cry because of me," Jin said. "I didn't know you missed me that much." 

"She's crying because she wants to eat," Jungkook said. 

I was wrapped by Jimin suddenly, then Taehyung. 

"Group hug!" Hoseok cheered as he came into the bundle. The rest of the members came in laughing and jumping, making my lungs unbreathable. There were so many people around me, I knew I was bound to faint in within seconds. Even if I fainted, I knew I wouldn't be harmed by the time I wake up.
