The Childhood Friend || Kim Namjoon ✔️

Chapter 6: Forgotten

Analyn hadn't come home last night, making me worried. When Namjoon left, she became my closest friend. I can't have something happen to her.

I texted her after I saw she wasn't home but I never got a response. I'm on my way to big hit when I get the response I was waiting for. Luckily there was a red light.

I open my phone and see it, the message I was so worried I wouldn't receive.

Analyn: Sorry! Family emergency back home. I just got off the plane. Apparently the text didn't send saying I was leaving for the Phillipines....

You: It's fine. I hope everything is alright. Come back safe!

With that I turn off my phone and shove it in my pocket, just in time for the light to turn green.

When I see the building, I get chills. Chills? Am I that nervous to see Namjoon? But this isn't "we've been four years apart and he doesn't remember me" chills. This is fluttering chills. I'm excited and nervous.

Entering the building, I'm met with a familiar face on the elevator. The girl from my college, here for the Intern project.

"Hey y/n! How are you enjoying being here." she nudges my shoulder, similar to yesterday. She's so upbeat and happy. How does she stay that way?

"Well so far, so good. What about you?" I giggle. No, not so far, so good. I only ran into my Bestfriend of 10 years and he's completely forgotten about me, that's all. Oh and I'm stuck with him for the next two weeks. But I can't just tell her all that, can I?

"I ran into some conflicts." she laughs shyly, brushing her hair behind her ear. "You can tell me. I don't have very many people to tell." I laugh off.

She gives me a look of sympathy then brushes it off, understanding I most likely wouldn't want to speak further on that subject. She would be correct. "Well I saw the most beautiful human yesterday. Just magnificent. But he's an idol, so of course everyone loves him. I'm sorry, I sound like another silly fangirl." she laughs off. I can tell he's really had an effect on her heart. Could it be one of BTS? The least I can do is talk her up. From what I've heard so far, she's one of the most magnificent humans.

"Do you know his name?" I question. She laughs bitterly. "You're going to think I'm so stupid."

"Hey I'm not judging! Most of those idols are drop dead gorgeous." I attempt to make her feel better. She sure doesn't sound like a crazy fangirl.

"But you will once I tell you who he is. His name is seokjin. He's in the boy group BTS." I can tell she's struggling, letting this all out.

"Hey you know what? I say go for it! You seem like a really sweet person and you obviously are beautiful! If he says no then I can guarentee another guy will sweep you off your feet in no time. You won't know if you don't try." I put a hand on her shoulder comfortingly. She smiles and embraces me in a hug.

"I want to be friends. I've seen you around the same dorm building as me. Let's have dinner one night." she smiles at me. I nod as we exchange numbers.

We reach her floor and she turns to me before leaving. "Thank you." she waves goodbye as do I.

What a nice girl. I'll talk her up for sure, she deserves a good person. I did my research last night, from what I can tell, he's a very kind gentleman.

I reach the practice room and am met with only the boys. They hadn't heard me come in and I hope to keep it that way, I want to look over the materials I brought with me to make the pictures more interesting.

My hopes are lost as a familiar voice calls my name. "Hey y/n!" Jimin runs excitedly over to me, engulfing me in a right squeeze. After getting engulfed with about 50 times yesterday, I'm not effected.

"Hey Jimin." I manage to sputter out. Too tight. Very much too tight.

"Hey! Namjoon told us!" Jimin let's go of the hug. Told them? Does he remember me?

"We got another 95'er! 95' group hug!" v shouts, joining the squishing y/n party. Wait that means, that means he remembers me!

I eye namjoon suspiciously. Why didn't he say anything yesterday? I'm about to ask why when he talks before me.

"Your school emailed us some information about you since they knew you'd be working with us." he coughs awkwardly. "I swear I'm not a stalker." he confesses chuckling. I nod understanding but yet I don't.

All that information and he still doesn't remember me? Has he erased me completely from his brain. I can't help but be sad, did he even want me in his life anymore?

Apparently my sadness was evident as Jimin and V hold my up. I think I'm going to cry.

"Hey are you alright? You look down." V asks concerned. I wipe away a tear fore it can be seen. "Oh yeah. I just gotta go to the ladies room, I'll be back." I push them off and speed walk to the bathroom where I let my tears flow. All those years I've held in those tears are now cascading like a water fall done my face.

Then I hear the door open, I don't care enough to look up and see who it is. Let them think I'm a crazy little girl.

Before I know it, a feel a hug from definitely not one of those boys. But it was familiar. I look up and see my new friends face.

"What happend?" she speaks softly, brushing my hair out of my face. And that's when all hell breaks lose. That's when I let everything out and tell her everything I've been holding in with the tears.
