Everyone's eyes fly to the dining hall door as it opened, revealing a girl with long blonde hair and a makeup stained face. She steps in, staring at everyone with a confused look before running over to you, embracing you in a tight hug as she shouts, "Y/N!"

You hug her back, smile gracing your features. You slowly mumble, "Good morning, Lisa."

She cries, cuddling you tighter as sobs left her mouth. "I thought I was gonna die!" She states, sobbing even more. You lift your hand up, patting her back in reassurance as you speak, "You think I'd actually let you die? How low do you think of me?"

You pull back, wiping the tears off of her face like the good friend you were before quietly asking, "You hungry?" She nods violently, more vicious sobs leaving her mouth as she clung onto you for dear life, her mascara and lipstick smudged making her look like the demon you would see when you had sleep paralysis. You shrug that thought off, snorting to yourself as you asked, "You wanna get changed and freshened up first?"

Lisa was about to reply, but was cut off by a large growl erupting from her stomach. Yoongi tries to hold back his laughter, stuffing a bite of pizza in his mouth.

She clutches her stomach in embarrassment, giving you a look that said 'feed me now'. You instantly nod, knowing Lisa was the scariest when hungry. You run over, picking up a slice of pizza and rushing back to her, holding it out for her to take. A look of gratitude flashes through her eyes and she smiles, taking the pizza and biting into it. You sigh in relief when she chews happily, eyes now scanning over everyone else in the room. Seeing all the guys staring at her, she whispers to you, "Uh, Y/N... why are you, Jungkook, Jin and I hanging out with a bunch of those creatures?"

Your eyebrows fly up, confusion lacing your features.

Her whisper was not a whisper though, as everyone in the room had managed to hear it. "How rude." Mizuki mumbles, a pout on his face.

You slowly whisper back to her, "Uh, Lisa, sweetie, they're the people who helped us. They're not demons." She raises an eyebrow as her mouth stops moving, signalling that she had stopped chewing on the bite of pizza in her mouth. She slowly mutters, "You mean... these are real guys?"

You nod, though not understanding her reaction that much. You eye her as a look of horror flashes through her eyes, the pizza falling from her hand and landing on the floor.

"She's wasting food now too? Unbelievable." Yoongi remarks, clicking his tongue in annoyance as he watched the strange woman who had come in, crying like a toddler.

Lisa still looked terrified, hands flying to her mouth as she gasped. She looked at the boys eating pizza, then down at her clothes, then back at them, and then down at her clothes again.

You realise what was happening, laughter threatening to erupt from your throat.

Lisa slowly turns towards you, gulping, "So I'm standing here, in my torn ass clothes, running makeup and no shoes in front of people I had to make a good first impression to?" She looks as if more tears are filling her eyes as she continues, "Why does this always happen to me?! And they're guys, hot guys at that and I just ruined any chance of them actually liking me oh my god I wish I could just crawl into a hole and die."

Jin smiles, amused at her ranting. Jungkook catches this look, smirk appearing on his face as the gears in his mind worked.

You pat Lisa on her shoulders, a look of sympathy in your eyes. "It's okay, you look fine."

"Does she?" Kai mumbles sarcastically, but intentionally loud enough so that she would hear him. You shut your eyes, taking a deep breath before flashing Kai an annoyed glare. He shrugs, stuffing more food in his mouth. You look back at Lisa to see her eyes watering further, droplets threatening to spill from those brown orbs. You panic, uttering, "No no no, don't cry, it's okay. He didn't mean it."

Before Kai could open his mouth again to disagree with what you had just said, Namjoon places a hand over his mouth, a smile on his face as he says, "Really don't think you should say anything." Kai's shoulders drop, mouth shutting close as he decided to just zip his lips.

But even then, for what seemed like the tenth time but was merely the second, Lisa bursts into tears.

You chuckle, watching Lisa come out of the shower as she dried her hair, a dead look on her face. Her eyes seem to hold desperation in them as she asks, "Y/N, I made a fool out of myself didn't I?"

You purse your lips, amusement flicking through your own eyes as you answer bluntly, "Well, I think they liked your entrance. Mizuki couldn't stop laughing once you had left."

She groans, burying her face in her towel out of pure embarrassment. She didn't realise so many people had been behind the mission, let alone so many hot people. She was mortified. Going through your last sentence in her head again, something seems to click in her head as she looks up at you, a serious look on her face. With a sigh, she speaks, "Mizuki was the one with the silver hair right?"

Seeing you nod, she lifts her hands up, taking out her pinky finger and closing the rest as she mumbled, "Okay, so Mizuki, silver hair. Then there was... the grey haired one, who seemed uninterested... Yoongi, was it?" You nod again, smiling as you saw her lift her ring finger up as she counted the people, trying to memorise their names. She continues, "And then, the smart one with the blonde hair, Namjoon." She pauses, looking at you before asking, "...it's Namjoon right?" You nod again, grin deepening as you saw how genuinely hard she was trying to get to know them.

She lifts her middle finger up, now three fingers on display. She continues, "And then there's... the red haired one? He's the one who made that snarky comment." She grimaces as if remembering how terrible that whole experience was before shaking her head and trying not to focus on it. She scrunches her nose in thought as she tries to remember what his name was. "His name..." She starts, thinking deeply, "...I can't remember it, but I know it started with a K."

Once she said that specific letter, your smile had vanished. A wave of memories came rushing back, and you feel your head begin to throb. You see snow flash through your mind, an image of a little boy popping up. Your chest hurt, eyes filling with tears as everything came back to you. Your chest began to hurt even more, the stabbing pain feeling familiar as you clutched at it, groaning because of the terrible feeling. Almost as if your heart was reminding you of how it once felt. And then the scene of a red haired boy walking away from you as you bawled your eyes out played in your head. Your heart ached in longing, want as you watched him walk away and a part of you wanted to shout for him to come back. Yet, tears fell from your eyes as your throat clogged up. You were unable to say anything. Another scene played in your head, this time of a dog. The boy had given you a dog. The memories were blurry and hazy but somehow you could hear everything. Your head throbs as you hear, "His name is Bruno." erupt from the boy's mouth. Your mouth fell open, tears falling as you muttered out, "Bruno?" Your voice was shaky and hesitant, but you were sure you had heard what the boy had said. Your chest begins to ache and you grip it tightly, feeling constant pangs of pain. Your ears begin to ring, causing you to let out a shrill scream.

Finally, you feel someone shake you, staring into your eyes as they mumble, "Y/N? Y/N, are you okay?" The pangs subsided as you recognise the familiar voice. The ringing stops and you snap out of your trance, blinking fast. You look up, mumbling, "Jungkook?"

He nods, sighing in relief when seeing you responding. You were still clutching your chest, dried up tears on your cheeks. You look around the room, seeing everyone there and staring at you. You see a worried Lisa next to you on the bed and ask with confusion in your voice, "What happened?"

She gulps, hands gripping onto your arm in reassurance before she begins to speak, "I was talking to you, but you stopped replying. You were looking elsewhere as if you were in a trance and I shook you at least ten times but you weren't responding. Then you started holding your chest and you looked like you were in pain so I called everyone. I was so scared, I didn't know what to do."

You sigh in relief, before the memories come rushing back. Somehow, your eyes seemed to start flying around the room on their own. Looking for something or someone. Deep inside, your mind wished to see that familiar blob of red hair, the boy from your memories. Your eyes travel around the room before landing on a specific boy.

You see the red hair and his worried eyes, feeling a hint of familiarity hit you. Your chest got hit with another pang of pain.

You grip it, this time only staring into his eyes as he watched you worriedly.

And then, you were sure of it.

With tears spilling from your eyes and a shaky voice, you look towards Kai before slowly muttering out, "K?"
