'Finally, I am here' I told myself as I am walking into the Big Hit building. After getting off a 12-hour plane ride and then a who knows how long car ride, practically doing nothing in both cases, I'm tired. The scenery outside turned from nice rolling hills and farmland as far as the eye could see, to streets filled with people, markets down side-streets, and skyscraper like building all around.
When PD-nim said he would wake me when we arrived, I forgot to tell him to just call my name out instead of touching me. Now, I may be a centuries old god, but nothing compares to acting, for all intents and purposes, like a mortal in a war zone. I had heard about veterans having panic attacks and PTSD when coming home from serving, but I thought nothing of it.
Now though, I don't get nightmares from my comrades dying or bombs going off at all times of the night, but I do wake up ready to go. 'I probably should have told him how to wake up a veteran.'
PD-nim leaned over me and shock me awake while reading on his phone so he had no time to react to me, not that he would anyway.
Once he touched my arm, I was up out of my seat and had his hands and arms behind his back and face down on the cushions while looking around me for more threats.
'Yeah. Definitely should have told him about that.'
He was yelling, the driver was yelling, the camera guy filming was yelling, everyone was yelling. Not the best situation to be in.
"Sorry! So sorry! I didn't mean to act like that" I tell then in the hope they would calm down.
"Why would you do that?" PD-nim asks me. He turns around while rubbing his shoulders to look at me like I was a child being scolded. I sheepishly rub the back of my head and give him a small smile.
"Being in the military doesn't make for good wake-up calls." I tell him this while looking at my hands in my lap.
He looks confused for a second, but I see the recognition in his eyes when he does understand the meaning behind what I said. He takes a breath and says "ok" under his breath and looks around the car for a minute.
I can tell he want to ask me something but hasn't found the right words yet.
He finally straightens up and half turns to me. "Is this going to affect the group and cause problem or harm to the other members?"
I give him me most serious look I can and look him straight in the eyes.
"No"
He keeps his stare at me a minute longer before accepting my answer. "Well, here we are. Big Hit Entertainment."
I look out the window to see we have indeed arrived. I jump out of the car for a chance to stretch before grabbing my bags and following PD-nim into the building.
Once I hop out, other people on the street stop and stare at me, pointing out to the people they're with to look at me. 'How rude' I think to myself. 'Can't people just walk about and enjoy their day without being a target or animas to look at.'
I grab my military issue duffel bags and head inside. The interior of the building has a nice flow to it being an open concept and the white color theme. PD-nim lead me to the elevator to go up a few floors to a long hallway with my offices on it. He stops a few steps before the last door and turned to me.
"All the members are inside. Are you ready to meet your new members?"
I take one last deep breath and let it out slowly. I nod and say, "As I'll ever be."
He has a small smile on his face as he goes to open the door of the office, I now know to be his. I walk in after him to see all seven members seated on the couch and chairs in his office. I close the door behind me and walk around to stand by the desk PD-nim is seated behind.
I take a chance to look at the seven people I will be living with for the foreseeable future. They look exactly like the pictures on the internet I saw before getting on the plane. I also take a chance to profile them to see if what I gathered in my files on the were accurate. 'Great' I thought proudly to myself. 'My files on them were accurate so far.'
The seven boys also take a chance to look at me while I'm having a party in my head for the great detective work I did.
I can tell they were not expecting to see an American in military dress walking in. Jungkook, the youngest, looks the most afraid of me due to my uniform and takes comfort by leaning into Jimin's side and shoulder.
Namjoon looks like the ever-dedicated leader he is, but I can see in his eyes, he doesn't trust PD-nims decision.
Suga then turns his head to the head honcho and asks very bluntly, "PD-nim, I thought you said we were getting another member, not a bodyguard?" Suga doesn't look all that happy and neither do the other members. They look like the trust they built with the company was all fake and they were being punished for something they didn't do. 'I know that's how I look when it happens to me' I told to myself.
I look over my shoulder to see his response but all he does is gesture a hand to the members and I take the initiative. "I am the new member to the group. I hope you will all accept me." I say what I had and leave it at that. No need to add any fluff to it.
The members all look taken aback that i was speaking in English and I'm the new member.
PD-nim looks pleased by this, but I don't know why. He stands up and tells us to go back to the door to finish the introductions.
'Why did we have to come her for all ten minutes then have to go to the dorms' I ask myself while gathering my bags to head out after the others.
The walk down to the cars were awkward to say the least. Nobody said a word and went out of their way to stay out of my way. I didn't say anything because I knew coming into a group that has been together for years will be tough and they won't accept me right away.
They gave me the shotgun seat in one of the cars and I didn't complain. The drive to the dorms took a little longer than the expected time due to traffic and I could tell the others were antsy to get out of the silent car.
Once at the dorms, I gathered my bags and followed the rest up to the dorms. Namjoon lead me to an empty room, but it didn't have a bed.
"I'm sorry, but this is the only room left. We will get you a bed tomorrow, but you can take the couch for tonight." He looked really embarrassed by the situation, so I just laid a hand on his shoulder which made him look up at me with wide eyes. "It's more than enough. I don't expect anything from you guy until your ready."
With that said, I go into the room and put my stuff down along with my military boots. I turn to still see Namjoon in the doorway. I could tell he wasn't expecting my answer but, was ok with it. I was waiting for him to lead the way back to the living room where everyone sat down to begin the introductions.
I seat myself on the only available chair and start.
"Well, I'm Percy Jackson and I guess I'm your new member."
