The next day Auden was deep in her writing when her phone pinged. She stopped scribbling lyrics onto her note pad to check who messaged her.

She expected it to be Emmie, or maybe her mom checking in on her. So when Jimin's contact popped up on her screen her heart did a little jump.

He put his name in her phone as Jiminshii

She smiled as she slid open the message

Jiminshii: What are you doing right now?

Auden: Writing

Jiminshii: Should I leave you alone then?

Auden: What's up, Jimin?

Jiminshii: Can I come over?

She found herself smiling as she typed out her response.

Auden: I guess I can spare a few minutes.


His reply never came, instead she heard a knock at her door. She hurried down the hall to answer it.

When she opened the door she found him wearing jeans and a nice sweater that looked more expensive than anything Auden had ever owned. His hair was styled prettily and he was wearing a bit of makeup. He looked really handsome and Auden was sort of taken aback for a second by his appearance.

"Why are you all dressed up?"

"I have an interview in an hour, with a TV station," he said walking past her into her house. "I was wondering if you wanted to come with me."

"Come with you?" Auden asked, a little shocked by the question.

"Yeah," he said, looking at her expectancy. "You'd be behind the scenes of course."

"Why?" she couldn't help but ask.

He chuckled. "Because I hate going to these things by myself."

"You'll have your bodyguards."

"Do you want to get out for a bit or not?" he asked her, and she couldn't help but smile at his impatience.

"Fine, I'll come. Let me just grab my purse."

Soon Auden was in the back of the SUV with Jimin, surprised at how happy she was to be getting out to see the city. She didn't realize how isolated she would feel being unable to leave the apartment whenever she wanted. She was used to writing songs in a studio, recording with other individuals on the regular and seeing Emmie for coffee runs. Now she felt sort of lonely even though was doing what she loved most.

She gazed out at the buildings that were passing by in a blur.

"So what's this interview for?" Auden asked.

"Bang Si-hyuk wants me to start doing press for my new songs that will be coming out. My fans know I'm in America and he thinks it's time I start letting them know what I'm up to."

"I see. It must be weird not having the others here with you," Auden said sympathetically.

"I miss them," he admitted. "But we talk everyday." His face fell a little and Auden couldn't help but feel bad for him in that moment.

"I bet they are proud of you for doing this though."

"I've never really done anything like this before. Not without them. So I hope I'll make them proud." He sighed, and gave her a guilty smile. "Well, really it will be your songs making them proud."
