The Childhood Friend || Kim Namjoon ✔️

Chapter 16: Plans

After my friend has left, I laid here with the left over ice cream in my tub staring at the ceiling. If people thing this is weird than I'd be crazy, I do this type of shit every night. I'm just greatful to have someone to talk to now. Maybe I won't have to be so crazy anymore after all.

My thoughts go to my memory box. The other night I was so tempted to open the damn thing. When your feelings get bunched up and there's no more space you just want to let it all out. Crying is that go to for me. I don't cry often but I have been lately. All that stress, sadness, and anger has built up continously.

I sit up and glare at the box. Why did my happy memories have to end junior year? Why did they have to end when he left? I could've continued living my life but I chose to wallow away and pity myself.

Oh, I'm so going to regret this. I breathe out with a sigh and stand up, placing the tub aside. Kneeling on the floor, I pick up the shoe box in my hands and let out a shaky breath.

Don't open it y/n. You will make yourself sadder. My convincing doesn't work as I slowly lift the taped lid off the box.

Ok ok let's rewind for a minute. I had to get oof my bed and sit on my floor to get to the box. Then I had to remove the tape seeling the box. This is a step by step process and I continued to go through with the work. It sure doesn't sound or look like I don't want to open the box. In fact, I'm sure I'm anxious. Let's continue now, shall we?

I lift the lid off and immediately bring my hand to my mouth. The first thing I see is a picture of namjoon and I when we first met. A sob leaves my mouth.

His arm was wrapped around my shoulder tightly as his eyes were not visible from smiling so wide. He probabaly couldnt see when this picture was being taken.

My arm was wrapped around his shoulder as well. I had braces at the time, not wanting anyone to see me smile. He was the first person who made me smile when I had tried so hard to not. My mother was so surprised to see those teeth in so long.
That was the day a beautiful friendship started.

I shuffle through the photos, seeing I had put them in order. Slowly, I watched us and our friendship grow. The happiness ended when I saw the last photo. There I stood, hugging the life out of namjoon. You could tell I was crying. You could tell I was hurting and my face wasn't even showing.

My long hair was being caressed by namjoons left hand as his right arm was clasped tightly around me. My arms were wrapped around his neck as I cried into his shoulder. His face showed sadness and guilt. I still remember what he said that day.

"Will I see you again?" I whimpered, tears threatening to spill. I don't want him to leave, he's the only thing I have left.

"I promise I'll come visit. This isn't the last time I'll be seeing you alright. Call me every night." he wipes a stray tear from my cheek.

"You better Kim Namjoon! I will find you if you don't." I giggle. He chuckles as well and pulls me into a heartfelt hug.

That was a lie. I never saw him again. Well until now, 4 years later. And even though I convinced myself it wouldn't happen, it still did. I knew he was going into the industry he's in now and I knew it was going to change him. I knew he was going to leave me, whether he wanted to or not. They leave old things behind to have room for new things.

The funny thing is I never knew he was involved with the hottest Kpop band. I guess I just avoided anything to do with bighit.

Y/n's friends P.O.V.

I bounced my leg anxiously and checked my watch for the fifth time in the last few minutes to pass. Jin said to be here an hour early and where is he? Not here. That boy, I swear one day I will-

"Good you're here." Jin claps entering the practice room. I sigh with relief and ease down. Followed by him are the other five he said were coming.

"Okay when do we start?" jungkook smirks evilly, rubbing his hand together. I furrow my eyebrows. "Apparently I'm the only one who doesn't know what the plan is." I speak up as others talk about the plan I am unaware of.

"You seriously didn't tell her Jin?" yoongi speaks. I nod towards yoongi and look to Jin. He shrugs and then fills me in.

"So here's the plan."

Your P.O.V.

I stand in the elevator, waiting for the end when it's just the beginning. It's the last day, just keep your cool and everything will be over with before you know it.

That's when I remember on particular detail, I'm not taking photos today. Yesterday was my last day taking photos. I'm just supposed to show up today to say I was there for 2 whole weeks. The guys aren't even doing anything today. We are going to be sitting there, with eachother for 10 hours. Great.

When I here a ding, I sigh. After today you'll just have to move on. When the doors open I am met with Jimin and hoseok. I roll my eyes. "Hey y/n." they both smile happily. I furrow my brows and look at them curiously.

"Oh we had to come grab you. We're not in the practice room today. Some trainees needed to use it." I nod slowly and follow them to wherever we are today. I gotta say, they are acting very suspicious.

But nothing is suspicious when I open the door to some members already there, including my friend. I don't think of anything until I sit down. She's here but Jin isn't. In fact, jin, namjoon, and jungkook are all not here.

I'm about to ask where they are when they beat me to it. "Jin went to go pick up coffee and jungkook and namjoon slept in late." I nod and turn towards her.

"Did the staff let you come down here for a bit?" I ask starting up a conversation. "Uh yeah, they accounted for me and said I could go do what I want today." she shrugged. For some reason all of this sounds suspicious, but it's so innocent.

Namjoon's P.O.V.

Jungkook had kept me late by sleeping in and the other members had volunteered me to wake him up. Only did I not know that when I was waking him up, the rest had left.

"Just pick a damn hat and let's go!" I yell aggravated. He never takes this long to get dressed. Something is up, I can tell. "Give me a minute." he says for the fifth time this morning. Each one of those minutes turn into five.

His phone dings and he is quick to check it. "Can't you answer it when we are in the car?" I ask aggravated. He's never typically like this. He never answers his damn texts anyway, why is he all of a sudden so interested in answering them now?

Like magic, he starts grabbing things like no other. "Okay, let's go." he speaks quickly, rushing past me. I blink a few times and try to process what happened. Does he have a lady friend now or soemthing? This is all so bizarre. I shake it off and run after jungkook.

Once we arrive, it's like jungkook is on edge. He's rocking back and forth on the balls of his feet anxiously. This may be the longest ride in elevator history for him. I'm about to ask him what he's on edge about when the elevator dings, signaling we're on our floor.

We walk out to be greeted with taehyung. "Hey some trainees are in the practice room today so we're in a meeting room." he says, leading us to the so called room we're in. This is odd, trainees almost never use that room. But I guess it's not impossible.

"The guys are in there. I have to go get Jin from upstairs and tell him you guys are here." Tae speaks running down the hallway and disappearing. Another thing that is weird today.

I shrug it off and walk into the room when the doors slams behind me and I hear a locking sound. I furrow my eyebrows and tune around to face jungkook. "Jungkook Whyd you lock the do-" when I turn around, no one is there. What the hell?

I pound on the door. "Jungkook?!" I call. I get no response. Is this international weird day or soemthing? Am I getting Pranked?

"Wow. We got played." speaks a familiar voice from behind me. I turn around and am faced with y/n.
