~ 8 Months Later... In Canada ~

Jessa woke to the buzzing from her phone. Her blurry eyes tried to make out the hundreds of messages from Lila, her co-worker.

As Jessa tries to answer her messages her phone starts to ring. It's Lila.

She answers, "Whaaaaaat? It's too damn early for this."

"It's half past one! We have to get ready! I just scored us the job of a lifetime!" Lila's voice was schrill through the phone.

Jessa groaned and rolled on her side accidently knocking one of her many empty liquor bottles from her bedside table, "Uggh, this better be good Lila. I'm really not feeling like working today."

"Ok ok ok, are you ready! Drumroll please!" She made a sad attempt at a drumroll and coughed, "We my lovely friend are the main photographers for BTS' concert tonight! Ahhhh!"

Jessa's heart sank.

"Hunny, you there? Aren't you excited? This will be so much fun!"

"D-do I have to Lila?"

"Do you have to!? Can't believe you just said that! Well the tickets can't be taken back so..yes..yes you do"

"Fine.." Jessa groaned, "I assume you're coming here to get ready?"

Lila schreaked, "Yes! I knew you'd come through! Be there in a jiffy"

Half an hour later Lila began banging on the door. Jessa reluctantly opened it.

"Hey hey heyyy!" She said gleefully, "You're wearing that?"

Jessa looked at her massively baggy black sweatshirt and re-adjusted the ballcap that covered her eyes, "Yea? Problem?"

Lila gave her a sturn look, tutted and redirected her towards Jessa's closet. She came out wearing a lovely summer dress with floral patterns and a set of appropriate shoes with a lacey fringe around the ankle.

"Much better," said Lila giving Jess a twirl. Jess let out a small chuckle at Lila's enthusiasm.

"Wow..I haven't heard you laugh in God knows how long."

Jess returned to her solemn state but remained happier than she was before. She wasn't sure if that was because she'd be able to see Jungkook for even a moment or because she felt pretty for the first time in months.

They got a taxi to the stadium and it was packed already. They were able to get into a side door with our business passes. Inside hundreds of staff were doing their last minute preparations and hustling everyone around. Jessa and Lila were shown their seats and Jessa began to panick.
They were to stand four rows back from the front of the stage.

Jessa shuffled around on the spot giving worried looks to Lila who was on the opposite side of the stage. Jessa had thoughts of running away, going home to her warm comfy bed and cry. Her feet began to move to go but she was stopped by the crowd of screaming ARMY that surrounded her. Jessa's fate was sealed.

Minutes felt like hours as Jessa waited for the concert to start, she tried to look and see where Lila was situated but she too was ungulfed by ARMY.

Finally the show started.. and on stage came the seven members of BTS.

Her heart sank. Seeing Jungkook smiling at his loving fans, scanning over each of their faces. When he got to the section Jessa was in she hid her face begging him not to see her.

The music began and their voices rang out through the stadium. Jessa was tense for the first few songs but began to enjoy herself and be more comfortable taking pictures. She managed to get amazing shots of six of the members but hesitated everytime Jungkook came into the focus of her lense. He was glowing on stage, it really was the place he was meant to be. "I was only getting in the way," she said to herself. She smiled at the comfort of knowing he was okay and kept snapping photos.

When Jessa's favorite song came on she decided not to take photos and instead just enjoy this one song. She danced and sang along with everyone around her. When suddenly she noticed Jungkook stop and stare at her.

She immediately turned to run away and some ARMY tried to make a path for her but was stopped by Jungkook's voice on the microphone.

"Stop! Stop the music, please! Jessa wait!" ARMY gasped from all around her, their eyes finally landing on the one girl trying to run away.

The music stopped and Jungkook's voice filled the room.

"Please, come backstage I need to speak to you!"

J-hope tried to entertain the crowd as best he could to take away the focus from Jungkook plee. Jungkook left the stage.

ARMY's from around Jessa began whispering to themselves and began to lead her to the backstage door, whether they gently dragged her or pushed her she found herself at the door.

"Go get him," One girl said with a smile on her face.

A security guard opened the door and  Jessa hesitantly entered. It was pitch black but followed a light that brought her to 'BTS' Dressing Room'.

She entered and saw Jungkook's sweaty back leaning over his dressing table. Jessa closed the door and the sound made Jungkook jump and whip around.

"H-hi," Jungkook pushed out.

"Why? Why would you do that infront of everyone, I've jeprodized your career once and now twice."

"I had to see you Jessa, you don't know how hard it's been for me," He inched towards her.

"Oh trust me, with how many death threats I've recieved I know what it's been like," tears began to well up in her eyes.

"I'm sorry about everything," His words sincere. He approached and took Jessa into his embrace.

Jessa couldn't hold her tears anymore as she hugged him tight, "Please don't let me go," she cried.

"I'll never let you go, never again."

He released his grasp but continued to hold her arms, gazing into her eyes.

"Come back with me.." His eyes also releasing a tear, "Come back with me to our little apartment in Seoul."

She laughed and more tears streamed  down her cheeks, "Okay," she laughed more, "I'll come with you."

Jungkook smiled his bright smile and embraced her face pulling it to his and locked their lips together.

They released and placed their foreheads together, "Let's go home."
