Krystal lowered her head in depression as she realized it didn't make a difference to wait any longer. She started walking away from the movie theater. She never thought Jin would stand her up. She hated the feeling of being wrong, it brought back bad memories.

Jin ran with all his might. He refused to stop as he silently prayed Krystal would still be there. Just as Jin came to the meeting place he started looking for her, Krystal had just walked out of his sight as his head turned her direction.

Feeling worse than he ever had, Jin pulled his phone from his back pocket. He dialed Krystal's number, hoping she would answer.

"Hello." Krystal sounded sad and it made Jin feel even more guilty.

"Krystal, I'm sorry. I'm late."

"It's ok." Krystal tried to force the sadness from her tone.

"Where are you?" Jin hoped maybe she was close enough he could fix this.

"I'm on my way home."

"Are you mad?" Jin asked. He already knew the answer.

"I'm ok. Bye." Krystal said before ending the call. She walked slowly through the plaza sidewalks with her head to the ground. Looking up, she noticed a advertisement, on it was a girl holding a red umbrella. The day that she and Jin had made the bet flashed through her mind. Once it was clear to her what it meant she got her phone out again.

Jin was depressed as ever when his cell phone went off in his hand. Hope sprang in his heart as he saw Krystal's name. She had sent a text.

'If you're late again...I will use a red umbrella to knock your head off.'

Krystal was waiting at the interaction, when she received Jin's reply.

'Krystal, I'm sorry. Next Saturday will you go on a date with me?'

Neither of them could hide their smiles. Fate had given them one more chance.

Lonna's POV

Suga sat isolated on one side of the basketball court. Everyone could tell he was angry, so no one even tried to disturb him. Lonna and Jisoo both wanted to talk to him, but neither took the risk. Lonna looked at Jisoo, who rudely looked away from her. Jisoo took the chance to look at RM as he stretched, but once he looked at her, she shyly looked away.

Lonna couldn't take the awkward silence anymore. "What do you guys want to eat?" She asked as she walked up to the other players. Going out would help her clear her head. The members started yelling out what they wanted as Lonna wrote it all down. Taking the chance she turned to Jisoo and Suga. "Anyone else want anything?" She hoped it would make Suga say something, but he just ignored her.

Feeling let down, Lonna wrote down the last few items. "Fine, I'll be going." RM watched the girl walk out the door, before looking at Jisoo, who bit her lip in nervousness as she looked away. Lonna looked at Suga once more, hoping he would say something, but his silence was clear.

A little after

Taehyung ran back into the gym from going to his car. "Annoying. It's started raining. I hate rain, my hair goes all flat." Jin who had come back to practice instead of going home, heard what Taehyung said. He stopped his practice and walked over to Suga, who hadn't moved or made a sound since before he got there.

"Lonna went for food, but she didn't take an umbrella. Can you go help her?" He asked.

"You go, ok." Suga said as he looked at Jin annoyed.

"Damn, he is so not adorable." Jin said as he walked away frustrated with Suga's sour attitude. "I wasted my breath praising him."

"Captain, let me go." RM stated as he walked up to Jin. Jin didn't have any disagreement to his offer.

As he started walking out the door, the memory of what they had talked about in the club room came back to Jisoo. 'No it can't be he doesn't have the nerve...' Jisoo couldn't be so sure she was right, but she also wasn't sure she was wrong. She could feel herself fill with uncertainty as she watched him walk out of the gym. Her body started to shake from her own panic.

Lonna tried to shield as much rain as she could from her eyes with her free hand. It didn't make a difference, she was still getting soaked. She ran blindly through the heavy rain, trying to make it back as quick as she could. She was stopped when RM came into view. Staring at him, told her something was off about him.

RM let the hard rain hit him as he stood in front of Lonna. He gripped the metal pipe tighter in his hand. 'If you're gone...Jisoo will be happy.' He thought as she stared at her finally. Jisoo had given him the answer when he had asked her in the club room.

'Jisoo, who is in the way of your happiness?" RM knew now, he wanted to be like Jisoo, he just wanted her happy.

"Lonna, of course." The anger was still in her voice. "She said...I'm deceitful and wrong. I just like Suga."

"If Lonna disappears, will that make you happy?" Jisoo let another set of tears slide down her cheeks. "And if you're happy...will you give me a smile?" RM knew what he had to do.'

"RM what's wrong?" Lonna could tell something was different from how he usually was. Part of her was a bit worried.

"You need to disappear, Lonna. It can't continue." RM finally spoke. "Jisoo is so sad. She likes Suga so much, but her... adoration doesn't reach him. It's all because of you! If only you'd disappear, there would be no problem."

Lonna felt like she should run, but then again, this was RM, he had showed her nothing but kindness.

Back at the gym

Jisoo felt like she couldn't stay still. RM and Lonna had been gone for too long. The image of what RM might do to Lonna flashed through her head. She had no choice, she couldn't stay quiet. "Suga..." Her voice was shaky, forcing Suga to forget his anger and look at her. "RM..."

"RM? What about him?" Suga asked fighting his annoyance to talk to her.

"RM for..." Jisoo could hardly breathe. Her chest felt like it was collapsing. Suga could see her distress, and it confused him. "For me he said...I'm afraid." Suga could feel the worry rise in his own chest as he listened to her broken speech. "I'm scared he will do something to Lonna!"

Hearing Lonna's name, he jumped up beside Jisoo and put his hand on her shoulder gently. He tried to stay calm. "Jisoo, calm down." He said as comfortingly as he could. "I don't understand what you're saying."

"I said..." Jisoo looked at Suga's face, feeling guilty. She knew he was going to hate her, but he had to know. "I told him, I wanted Lonna to disappear!" She screamed before her courage could falter. Suga's face paled in fear as her words registered.

A/N: RM has done gone cray cray.
