Chapter 23: Plans and an unwanted visitor
It was the following Monday and me and Izzy were walking to Big Hit, crisp, cold morning air tainting our cheeks a pink. "I would go home for Christmas but no trips are covered so we'd have to pay for everything..." Izzy told me.
"Yeah, I mean the phone call will cost enough," I laughed, missing my family but even back in England I didn't have many opportunities to see them. "We'll have to make it up to them when we get home."
"So..." my friend started, "Do you reckon the boys will stay here?"
I rolled my eyes at her, an affectionate smile spreading across my lips as I shook my head in disbelief. "Probably not, Jimin and Jungkook will go back to Busan to see their families, Yoongi and Tae to Daegu, RM to a different part of Seoul, Hobi to Gwangju and Jin to Anyang."
Izzy sneered at my response, "Fucking nerd." I punched her arm lightly as we arrived at the offices, gaining some peculiar looks from the receptionists. We went our separate ways after making plans for lunch.
The morning passed quickly and productively, we had the feedback and ideas of the main team, managers and BTS so were working on refining each and every element of roughly 20 songs. It was 10 minutes before lunch when I received a text from David demanding for me to go to his office immediately. I told Unnie and the others and made my way there.
I went to text Izzy to say that I would probably be late to meet her for lunch when I saw her walking ahead of me. I dashed to catch up with her.
"Iz!" I exclaimed as I fell into step with her, "I have to go and meet David so I..."
She cut me off, "Y/N he just texted me saying I needed to go to his office," she stated, showing me her phone.
"This is going to be interesting." I grimaced as we arrived outside his office. She knocked and the creep replied, "Come in."
We entered to see him smirking behind his desk. "I have just received confirmation from the Boss on your little dare Y/N."
I swallowed, did this mean that...
"When you get home," He paused, his snake-like eyes flickering up to meet mine, "don't bother coming to work."
"Sir," I spluttered, "are you saying that we're..."
"You're fired. After this trip you two are no longer a part of this company. All of your work you have completed under us belongs to us." All of my works and songs flashed through my mind, I was seriously proud of them and they didn't even belong to me anymore. I felt my eyes well with tears, the floor and my feet going blurry.
"Now get out of my office."
I felt Izzy's hand guide me gently from the room and down to the cafeteria. She sat me down but all I felt was numb. "I'm sorry," I murmured before feeling my friend's warm embrace.
"Y/N," she spoke gently, "you saved me, don't apologise." I exhaled a breath I didn't know I was holding and heard the lunch room hush as per usual. The boys bustled over plonking themselves into the empty seats around us.
"Fuck, what happened?" Namjoon swore as he saw us.
"We've been fired." Izzy spoke quietly as Jimin sat beside her, "We have no jobs to go home to." I gulped trying to remain calm and felt her hand rub up and down my back like I was a sad child. I leant all the way forward and hugged my legs, letting out a shaky sob. Suddenly I was pulled up and into a pair of arms; "Be proud of what you've done," Yoongi spoke in a low voice, staring into my eyes, "you can claim money on it legally because it is your name on your work." I leant into his embrace, colliding with his chest.
