The next morning was a wreck, my body ached, my head ached and to move was an entire task.

I lifted my head to check the bed and see if he was sleeping, from the looks of it, he was gone for the day. I stood up slowly,  grabbing my shoes and the few things that had fallen off my person as he tossed me around.

A light knock came from the door, my eyes widened from shock, 'It's him!' I thought, 'What do I say? Do I tell him I'm leaving? No... He'll hit me if I do that.." I suddenly gathered the courage and just swung the door open, to my surprise, it wasn't JB, it wasn't even housekeeping.

"Dara? What are you doing here?"

It was Taehyung, with his hair in a small ponytail and he dressed in A black suit, "O-oh.. Taehyung.. Hello again." I said trying to brush passed him but another figure wearing all black blocked my way.

I looked up and quickly looked back down. 'Dammit.'  I thought, 'how can I embarrass myself two times. They can't see me like this.' Suddenly I felt a finger lifting my chin,

"Look at your face." Jungkook said, I could feel the heat radiating from his body.

"Did JB do this Dara?" Taehyung asked, equally as pissed as Jungkook,

I brushed passed them, beginning to walk down the hall, turning to go towards the stairwell.

As I opened the stairwell door and walked through the arch, they both had already caught up to me and backed me into a corner to stop me from running down the stairs.

"What happened Dara?" Jungkook asked, demanding an answer.

"Honestly, I'm not even sure I remember you guys from high school." I lied because I just didn't want to have to explain myself, "For all I know you could be some weirdos who just read my nametag and now you think you know me."

"Oh.. really?" Taehyung asked, "I don't think I could forget the only person to beat me at an art contest, especially since it was a girl."

I looked down at my feet, not saying  a word.

"And I don't think I could forget my first kiss." I continued to looked down as Jungkook said this, not wanting to remember the horrible torment he faced after it.

"I saw the way you looked at us while we were checking in, you recognize us too." Taehyung said, "Just be honest." he finished

I pushed passed them and continued down the stairs, "Look, I really hope you enjoy your stay. It's crazy after all these years you guys decide to stay at my parents hotel. Coincidences, right?"

. . .

They didn't follow me after that, thankfully. And after reaching my room, cleaning myself up and putting on some makeup I made my way down to the front desk.

"Well, look who's awake. Morning, Dara." Mom said, smiling at me

"Jitter Big, how'd you sleep?" Dad asked, flipping through his newspaper.

"Fine," I lied, "Just fine." I grabbed my vest and began putting it on,

"Oh! no no, sorry honey but you're off for the day." my mom spouted

"Well I don't want to be off. I have a lot on my mind, I need to keep busy." I stated, fully putting my vest on.

"No Jitter bug, you're off. Your mother and I hired a front desk person and weve got interviews lined up for all of our other positions today. The workers we do have are working at full for today. Maybe tomorrow? "

I nodded and took my jacket off. "Since I'm only here to fill where I'm needed, I guess I'll just have to deal with it." they smiled at me and I smiled back before taking my shoes off.

. . .

                                                                             
I spent a few hours just roaming the streets of LA, it was peaceful until my phone began to ring.

"Hello?" I answered

"DARA HOW COULD YOU NOT CALL ME AND LET ME KNOW YOU MADE IT? I KNOW WE WERE UPSET WITH EACH OTHER BUT DAMMIT YOUR MY BEST FRIEND!"

I laughed at her and then began to say, "Hi Nami, I miss you too, I'm fine thanks for asking and you?"

She scoffed and I giggled, "I'm sorry."

"Me too."

"So... What's happening?"

"Um... you'll never guess who's here." I said biting my lip

"WHO?!" she screeched

My mind fought with itself. I knew I should tell her about JB but I missed her so much and I didn't want us to argue again.

"Taehyung and Jungkook are staying at my parents hotel. I checked them in!"

I heard her scream on the other end and had to pull the phone from my ear.

"What?! Do they remember you? Oh my god what do they look like?"

I smiled before answering, "Well, Tae still has that golden olive skin, his hair isn't orange though its dark brown and kind of long. He's tall and buff and he's got legs like a giraffe."

She cackled, "And Kook?"

I smiled, "He's tall too, a little more pale than olive but he's got long dark brown hair too. He so much taller than me. I honestly don't remember him being so sexy. His arms are huge!"

"How huge are they?"

I stopped walking and my jaw slowly dropped as I turned around and saw Taehyung standing behind me.

He was wearing  a white tank top and tight blue jeans with a cap on his head.

"Hello? Ra? Are you there?" I heard Nami talking but I was frozen.

"Still gonna say you don't know me?" Taehyung asked before giving a smirk.

"*gasp* Dara?! Are they there? Is that them??"

I suddenly hung up the phone and bit my bottom lip as I began to look at the ground.

"Dara, why are you acting like you don't know me?" Taehyung asked,  "Is it because of JB? Because of what I know?"

I sighed, and turned around, walking away, "Sir, you don't know anything and I'm not acting like I don't know you.. I just--I don't know you."

He quickly followed after me, "You're good with makeup. You almost can't tell that there are bruises."

I continued to hold my head down and he grabbed my arm, causing me to stop walking,

"Look, Dara, I'm sorry that I got all in your business. Let's go out to lunch.. My treat, we can talk and....And catch up."

I looked around us and then shook my head in disbelief, "I can't believe I'm saying this but.. Fine. Lets go."
