vanessa's pov ࿐ྂ ;


i was in yoongi's arms, we stared at each other with our eyes widened. everyone was surrounding us and were asking if i was okay. as i was getting off yoongi, i met eyes with jungkook and he had teary eyes. before i could say a word to him, he stormed off and i rushed to follow him.


"kookie!" i called out but he continued walking away


"oppa, please listen to me" i said before he walked into the bathroom


as i watched jungkook disappear from my sight, i stood there and my heart-broke. i was speechless and didn't know what to do so i sat on the floor outside the bathroom, had my hands covering my face as i quietly started crying.


"vanessa, are you okay? why are you on the floor?" jimin asked and rushed over to sit next to me


i looked up at him while wiping my tears away then he hugged me


"you can talk to me when you're ready"


"j-jungkook misunderstood what happened back there, i tripped over then yoongi caught me. when i saw jungkook, he had teary eyes, i was about to talk to him then he stormed off. i followed him all the way here, i just want him to listen to me" i said and pouted


"it's okay, i'll talk to jungkookie. you should go back to your dressing room, the girls must be wondering where you are"


"alright" i said and he help me stand up


"don't worry too much, okay?"


"i'll try not to, thanks jimin" i said and hugged him then walked to the dressing room

as i was walking backstage, everyone suddenly surrounded yoongi-hyung. i was looking for vanessa then i found her in his arms. their faces were close to each other and they both looked surprised. i wasn't sure what happened but my heart started hurting badly, i got mad at yoongi-hyung and couldn't believe what i was seeing. once i met eyes with vanessa, i was feeling weak and hurt, i wanted to be alone so i stormed off to the bathroom. as i was walking, i blocked out all the sounds and the people around me, i just felt like breaking down. i was feeling so many emotions, i was exhausted, heartbroken, shocked and mad. once i got to the bathroom, i locked myself in a toilet stall and started quietly crying to myself.

"there you are" leanne said as i walked into the dressing room


"are you okay?" emily asked while walking up to me


"n-no" i stuttered and felt my eyes getting teary


"aw, come here" leanne said and we grouped hugged


"we better get going, mr an is waiting for us outside" emily said


"okay"


we changed back to our clothes that we wore earlier today, got our belongings, thanked the staff members and bts (without jungkook and jimin) then met mr an at the front entrance. we caught a taxi back to our hotel and ate dinner at the cafeteria.

a couple of minutes later, i could hear jimin-hyung's voice calling my name.


"jungkook-ah" he said and knocked on the door


"are you okay?"


"no"


"come out when you're ready so we can talk"


i dried my tears, took a deep breath in and out then walked out of the toilet stall.


"oh, jungkookie" he said and hugged me


"vanessa told me what happened but you should hear it from her"


"where is she?"


"she's going back to her dressing room and probably going back to the hotel with emily and leanne"


"i wanted to take her out for dinner"


"you know we can't because we have to go back to the music studio"


i frowned and nodded


"let's go to our dressing room, you can talk to me on the way there"


we started walking to our dressing room, i told jimin-hyung how i was feeling and he comforted me.


once we arrived at our dressing room, we saw yoongi-hyung outside the room.


"yoongi-hyung, is lve still here?" jimin asked


"nope, they just left"


"okay" he said


"jungkook-ah, let's talk" yoongi-hyung said


jimin-hyung pushed me towards yoongi-hyung then walked into the dressing room


"vanessa tripped over but i caught her, that's all that happened, nothing else. you know i wouldn't do anything to hurt you"


i didn't know how to respond so i just nodded.


"she looked very upset when they were leaving but i hope you talk to her soon" he said and patted my back then walked into the dressing room.


after hearing that from yoongi-hyung, i wasn't mad at him anymore but i started feeling guilty for misunderstanding the situation. hearing about vanessa being upset made me feel bad, if i didn't react that like and just listened to her, we wouldn't be in this situation. i walked into the dressing room and saw the hyungs getting ready to leave.


"jungkook-ah, get changed now. we have to go to the music studio" namjoon-hyung said


i got my things, got changed and we made our way to the music studio to continue working on our new album.

when i got back to my hotel room, emily and leanne came to comfort me and hangout for a bit. we searched on youtube to watch our performance with bts and talked about how perfect it turned out. emily and leanne cheered me up but i was still thinking about jungkook, i wondered what he was doing and if he was okay then i decided to text him but didn't hear back from him.


9pm


emily and leanne went back to their hotel room and i was getting ready for bed. i haven't heard back from jungkook yet. i tried to distract myself by doing some bullet journalling and keeping in touch with my parents and friends.

9:30pm


once we got back at the dorm, we ate late dinner then went to our rooms. i was getting ready for bed then i read vanessa's text messages.


nessie : oppa, can you please call me?


nessie : i need to talk to you


nessie : please? (。•́︿•̀。)


me: i'll call you now [deleted message]


i sighed and was going to type again then jimin-hyung came to my room to check on me


"did you talk to vanessa yet?"


"no..."


"it's getting late, do you think she's sleeping now?"


"maybe but i don't want to leave her on read "


"she texted you?"


"yeah" i said and showed him the texts


"how about if i quickly call her for you, then you can arrange to meet tomorrow"


"okay, hopefully she answers"


jimin-hyung called vanessa on my phone, he put it on speaker mode and we waited for her to answer. we got surprised that it didn't take long for her to answer, it was quick.

10pm


i started feeling sleepy, i got under the blanket covers and was about to turn off the lamp then i was receiving an incoming call from jungkook. i got up and answered the call right away.


"oppa?"


"hey vanessa, it's jimin"


"oh, hi jimin"


"i've talk to jungkook, he isn't happy of what he saw"


"can i please talk to him?"


"it's getting late now but he wants to meet you tomorrow"


"oh...where and what time?"


"12pm at the park near the cafe we all went to the other day after dance practice"


"okay"


"the others and i will be joining so we could hangout for a bit, bring emily and leanne too~"


"i will~"


"goodnight, see you tomorrow"


"see you then and please tell jungkook that i said goodnight to him too"


"of course~"


"thanks, bye~"


"bye~"


once the call ended, i set my alarm, put my phone away, turned the lamp off and laid in bed.


"i wish that this never happened, me tripping over and yoongi catching me. if only i was careful, jungkook and i wouldn't be going through this right now" i said to myself and sighed


i closed my eyes and i could feel tears falling on my face. i was starting to feel like everything was my fault and i was going to lose jungkook. i had so much on my mind that i was finding it hard to sleep. i've been tossing and turning in bed for a few hours. i decided to play some calm bts music and it helped me fall asleep while thinking about the good moments jungkook and i had.
