"So if I run it's not enough
You're still in my head forever stuck"

"Do you really have to meet up with Myunghee? I mean, we're all going to the same place anyway" Jungkook tried to persuade you while wearing a cute pout on his lips.

"I really have to, sorry. But I promise to buy you a meal there as an apology!" You exclaimed while trying to drag your suitcase to the entrance of the building with Jungkook following beside you with his arms folded.

"Make that two meals" Taehyung stated while running up to your other side. Fortunately for the ex-villain, the council had given him the green tick and he could finally walk around without being supervised as they had seen that he was following the rules accordingly.

"Fine, I'll do whatever just to make you guys shut up" playfully rolling his eyes, the brunette watched as you came to an abrupt stop by the entrance, making him and Taehyung also stop in response.

After knowing that you weren't going along with him to the festival from yesterday's conversation, he had tried to convince you for the rest of the day to go with him instead. He was happy at the thought of you going with him and hopefully restoring his memories from when his dad would used to take him.

"Remember, don't cause tr-"

"Trouble or do something dangerous. We know" they both recited in a robotic way.

"I'm glad you know... I'll see you guys tomorrow" before you could turn, Jungkook grabbed your wrist and swung you to his chest as he hugged you tightly.

"Stay safe" your cheeks heated up at the sudden contact and his low voice being so close to your ear. Unable to speak, you simply nodded before letting go and avoiding eye contact.

"O-of course I'll be safe! Bye guys!" And with that, you quickly ran out but before you could leave the building, you remembered about your suitcase and immediately ran back.

"My suitcase... stay out of trouble!" The other two found you amusing as they chuckled at your behaviour.

"She's so cute... I'll be in the training hall" Jungkook said as he watched you run to the car before walking off in the opposite direction.

"... cute is an understatement" Taehyung muttered before also heading to the training halls.

You finally arrived at the car where the driver exited and walked over to your side.

"Miss L/N, step inside" you watched as he opened the door for you to sit inside before grabbing your luggage.

"I'll take care of this" uncomfortable with sitting inside an expensive car instead of the usual company rented coach, you thanked the driver before slowly stepping inside.

After sitting on the leathered seats, the old man closed the door behind and proceed to head back to his side of the car. I should have asked if I could make my own way there...

The secretary had called you once again yesterday to tell you about the hotel bookings that Kangjoon had prepared for you. You tried to persuade them that it was alright since your parents lived a little outside of Gwangju and it would have been nice to visit them.

Your efforts were futile as the secretary couldn't accept any excuses and stated how Kangjoon would appreciate it if you would stay at the hotel he was in.

Suddenly, they car started and began its journey to Gwangju. It was going to be a long car journey so you got yourself comfortable and decided to get your headphones out until your hand hit something harder. Inquisitively, you looked in to your bag and saw the book that the president of the hero council gave you. ...I guess I could read some more.

Reaching in to your bag once more, you took out the old book and opened to the page you left on.

'13/08/13, James and receive a letter of invitation to the president's son's 12th birthday. Only I attend.

17/12/13, father took James to see the president alone while I stay at home.

27/05/14, the president's son invites James and I to go watch his modern dance recital, James refuses.

18/10/14, father will find James' art book which will make him angry and assume that he is ignoring his studies. I will hide his art book to not get him in trouble.

20/08/15, father will be promoted to be the vice president, thus making me work and study harder.'

You noticed that the dates were more spaced out now, only have around 2 future notes each year. You were half way through the book already but you had no clue what you had just read.

You didn't know what it was going to lead to or why Kangjoon even told you to read it. Perhaps when you see him later, you can get your questions answered and maybe understand the book a bit more.

"Miss, if you are tired, you can set the seat to bed mode and can rest if you would like" the driver spoke up suddenly, making you jump slightly before realising what he had just said.

"Ah, I see. I might rest now since it's going to be a long ride"

"That is probably best. Do not worry, Mr Kangjoon has put his full trust in me to bring you safely to the hotel" feeling slightly more safe in his presence, you pushed the chair back and began to rest your eyes.

"I'll give you some privacy" after pressing a button on the steering wheel, a tinted window rose between you and the driver and allowed you to be more comfortable.

"Woah... what a fancy car" and with that, you got yourself comfortable and slowly drifted to sleep.

As you fell into a deep slumber, you didn't notice a piece of paper falling out of the open book and landed beneath your chair. The picture showed three young boys, Kangjoon being on the right with a small smile, the one in the middle had a huge smile on his face while the other looked like he would rather be somewhere else.

If only that picture stayed in the book, then it would have made your life a lot easier from then on.
