Crooked

Chapter 10

*Listen to In My Blood by Shawn Mendes while reading this chapter*

The day after Jiyong and I broke up I went into the studio and recorded my song, Fake Love. The lyrics came to me that night and I knew it was going to be my song for our album. The three people who experienced my breakup are the ones I asked to perform it with me. We even went into our practice room right away and made our choreography for the song. I am very proud of this song and it is the first single from our album. We have a show in a week where I will be performing my song for the first time.

*A week later*

I think about Jiyong often and wish that we hadn't ended the way we did. I saw that he has a good side to him. I miss him desperately, but I push it away and remind myself why we are over.

I look over at Jimin and frown slightly.

"I'm sorry you can't perform with us tonight." His ankle is still in a cast.

"I really want to perform it for the first time with you guys. It will be a special moment for you." Jimin says softly. I grab his hand.

"You can sit on stage with us." I suggest. Jimin smiles.

"I would love that." He squeezes my hand and stands up from the chair he was sitting in.

"I will see you in a few." I tell him as he limps away. My make-up and hair artist is here to get me ready for our show.

"How are you doing Tabby?" Namjoon's voice asks and he comes to sit beside me as I get ready. I look over at him and smile softly.

"I'm alright. Could be better." I say truthfully. He nods.

"Are you ready for your song?" He asks me. I nod my head.

"Yes, I'm excited." I grin at him. Namjoon smiles and stands back up. He starts to leave then looks back at me.

"You're going to do well." He says before leaving. I smile to myself.

My artist is done and I'm dressed for the show, when I start to walk back and forth in my room. I'm getting nervous about tonight..more than I ever have before. My chest becomes tight and it is hard to breath. I head into the bathroom and slide to the floor. I close my eyes and tears form in my eyes, falling down my face.

I start to become overwhelmed with sadness. Why did Jiyong have to do this to us? I was so happy and I thought we would be together for awhile. I open my eyes and look at the ceiling.

"I can do this." I tell myself. I wipe away my tears.

"What are you doing in here?" Yoongi comes around the corner and stops when he sees me. I look up at him and try to smile.

"I'm having a breakdown." I plain out tell him. He frowns and leans down to me.

"Are you alright?" Yoongi asks and touches my cheek. I slowly nod.

"I will be fine." I tell him.

"You got this." Yoongi whispers. We both smile softly. I hear footsteps coming into my room.

"Where the hell is she? We go on in a few minutes." I hear Namjoon say. Yoongi looks at me and rolls his eyes. He grabs my hand and helps me up. He holds both my cheeks and brushes my face. Namjoon appears behind him.

"What are you doing? Let's go!" He says and leaves again. Yoongi starts to walk away and I grab his hand when I catch up to him. He holds my hand the whole time we are walking and when we get to the other guys.

"A minute!" A crew member yells out. We all get ready to go.

It is time for me to shine with Yoongi and Taehyung. A chair has been set on stage for Jimin and he walks over to sit on it.
