It's now been a week since your last date with Hoseok. One week is left in this tour.

Since then, you two have been relying on flights to give you two time together. You always offer to do the snacks and drinks for Aera on the flight and spend time talking to all of the members.

Especially Hoseok.

The rest of the date from that night was incredible. You two had gone to that movie room, cuddled on those large, reclining seats and ended up watching a movie.

Yoongi and Seokjin managed to take you back without you getting any questions from Aera. Matter of fact, she never even paid attention enough to notice the bruises on your body which are far gone by now. She was fast asleep by the time you got back to the room so you were able to relax once you got back to the hotel room that night.

You let out a soft sigh as you pull out your laptop, ready to have another meeting with Dr. Kang today. You set up the appointment and get everything ready before getting up from your seat to walk towards the bathroom where Aera is.

"Hey Aera?" you question while gently knocking on the door.

"Yeah, what's up?" you hear her question through the door.

"I have my therapy session in a few minutes... it's a little confidential. So, would you be able to leave the room for a little bit?" you question.

"I can pick us up some lunch actually," she states. "So, sure. I'll head to the diner two blocks away so you can have some privacy." You smile softly before nodding your head.

"Thanks, Aera!" you say before making your way back towards your laptop.

As you wait for the session to start and for Aera to leave, you take your phone out and decide to text Hoseok.

Y/N: Hey baby, how was the show last night? 😊

You hit send before letting out a soft sigh.

Eventually, Aera makes her way out of the bathroom, hair freshly blow-dried, and gives you a friendly smile. She steps towards her bed, grabbing her purse before pulling out her phone. She waves it in the air in front of you.

"When your appointment is done, just call or text to let me know when I can come back in the room, alright?" you nod. She gives you a friendly smile before making her way out of the room.

You let out a sigh of relief before looking down at your laptop.

To your surprise, you see Dr. Kang already on your screen, waiting for you. She gives you a friendly smile and wave.

"Hi, Y/N."

"Hi, Dr. Kang." You respond.

"How are you doing, today? Are the flights going well?" you nod your head and smile softly.

"Yes, I've been doing alright. I think my coworker who's been staying with me in the hotel is a potential new friend." You state. "And the flights have been going well. There haven't been any issues while working. It's been pretty easy going."

"That's good to hear!" she says while smiling. "Now, tell me more about your coworker." She says before pulling out her notebook to begin taking notes.

"Well, let's just call her A." you state. "She's been assigned to do these flights with me because of that issue we had where I had to take a break from working for a bit. She's been staying in the same hotel room as me and has been making sure I'm safe and not going out too much." You state.

"I see." She responds. "So... she's like a bodyguard?" you tilt your head to the side before shrugging.

"In a way, I guess." You respond. She nods before writing it down.

"So, you haven't really had any alone time lately?" she questions. You tilt your head to the side as you think for a second.

"Not really, no. She's always here and then on flights, I'm around my boyfriend and our friends." You respond. She nods her head and writes this down before tilting her head to the side.

"I know that I normally slowly work towards some questions but I'm just going to jump into this one today..." she states before putting her pen down. "Have you been feeling lonely while you have everyone around you?" she questions. You shake your head.

"I haven't felt lonely since I've gotten back on this job." You state. She nods her head and writes it down.

"But the last time you were with them, you did?" you nod. She smiles softly. "Y/N, since you don't want to take medication... I think I have an idea for you." She states.

"Really?" your ears perk up once you hear this. "What kind of idea?" You question.

As she explains the idea, you nod along in agreement, a wide smile on your face.

I can't wait to test this idea out.

*-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *->

"Y/N, I'm back. Would you be able to help me out with some of this food? I went a little overboard." You hear Aera's voice outside of the hotel room door. You let out a soft laugh before nodding your head and getting up. You make your way towards the hotel door and open it, widening your eyes as you see the amount of food she's carrying.

"Um... it's just the two of us eating in here... right?" you ask before stepping forward to help. She's carrying four different bags of food in one hand, a tray of drinks in the other, and she has a bag filled with sauce packets, utensils and napkins between her teeth.

You shake your head before taking the bags of food from her, holding two in each hand. She lets out a sigh of relief before letting out a soft laugh.

"Yes, it's just the two of us but one of those bags only has rice in it, the other has some sides I ordered, and the other two have our entrees." She states. You let out a soft laugh before shaking your head.

"Why so much food?" you question before starting to take the food out of the bag.

"Our flight is in an hour and a half so we have to make sure that we're full enough for the flight later on." She states. You widen your eyes as you look over at her.

"What?" you question. "My schedule said it's not until tonight?"

"I checked it while waiting in line. They had to leave earlier because the next tour stop got cancelled."

"Why?" You question.

"That stupid virus in that city has gotten out of hand so the boys can't risk performing there." She states. "So, we're going to our next tour stop, spending a few more nights than expected there and then tour's done." She says while taking her own food out of the bag. She grabs the utensils and starts eating her food.

You merely stare down at yours, in shock.

The boys hate cancelling shows.

I thought this virus was under control already?

Your appetite is now gone as you process this.

"So... what about the ARMY who already had tickets?" you question. She looks up at you, arching an eyebrow.

"I'm not sure how that process works... I'm assuming they'll get refunded?" she questions before swallowing the noodles that were hanging out of her mouth. "Why are you so concerned about it anyway? The sooner this tour is over, the sooner you get privacy and don't have me following you everywhere you go." She states while pointing her utensils in your direction.

"Well, those fans probably spent a lot of money and time just trying to get those tickets in the first place... it's kinda sad, don't you think?" you question. She shrugs.

"You and I both know BTS isn't going anywhere for another couple of years. They'll find a way to make it up to those fans and you know it." She responds before taking another bite of her food.

You nod your head before getting a little of your appetite back. The boys really will do anything to make it up to the fans who weren't able to go due to the virus.

You take a few bites of your food before it hits you.

Your brain is now wandering a million miles a second as you realize something that you hadn't planned for yet.

Tour is ending sooner than we thought...

Hoseok and I never talked about what we're going to do once tour ends...

How are we going to continue seeing each other? Are we going to continue seeing each other?

You nervously bite onto your lower lip, lowering your utensils again.

You can feel your heart already sinking into your stomach.

You know that Hoseok loves you and that he'll figure out a way to see you. The guys wouldn't let him not see you because they all get along with you too.

It's just the fact that you're not sure how you'll see him, when you'll see him.

You take a deep breath as you stare into your food.

Aera gets back to where you two were sitting, napkin in hand. She sees the expression on your face and tilts her head to the side, giving a 'are you kidding' look. She then shakes her head before speaking again.

"Y/N, did you cause the virus?" she immediately questions. This snaps you out of your trance as you furrow your eyebrows while looking over at her. She lifts her eyebrows, urging you to answer her question.

"No."

"Then this is out of your control. Not everything will be something you can control, and this is one of those things." She says before taking another bite of her food. After she swallows her food, she looks up at you again. "Things happen for a reason and everything will work out in one way or another. I'm sure the guys wouldn't want their fans getting sick from a virus just because they went to a BTS concert. They'd probably feel even shittier than they would for just cancelling the concert. They did the right thing."

One bit of her little speech sticks in your head.

I can't control everything.

Things happen for a reason.

Everything will work out.

Happy update day!

We're almost at chapter 60, the last chapter of this story! I hope all of you are excited to see what happens with Hoseok and Y/N.

I hope all of you are doing well lately. Take care of yourselves.

I purple you
