POV JUNGKOOK

I was undecided, very undecided whether to come or not with my hyungs, but I'm glad I did. I had a little lump in my throat before seeing her, but once our eyes met I realized that the friendship that binds us could never disappear and this made me relax a lot. She seemed to be fine, she was more tanned than I remembered her, her hair was a little longer and her smile was bright.

Beautiful, as always.

Taehyung: - So, I propose karaoke tonight. -

Tae's voice reminded me of being in a public place as I sank into my thoughts for a moment, and forgot about the presence of the others. Lately it often happened to me, it was as if I felt the need to stay with myself. Maybe I'm growing up... who knows.

After a little squabble between Y/N and Yoongi I saw them address a tender smile to each other. We know that Y/N is special for him, I never saw him ignore someone and then forgive them out of the blue, it wasn't in his style. Once he closed relations with someone he did it forever, without second chances, but apparently when we talk about her, things change.

We left the place around 8:30 in the evening, promising to see each other within an hour or less in front of the karaoke not far from where we were already. Melany and Y/N left, waving to us and then continuing to laugh happily.

I looked at them, smiling softly... I was so happy that these two can finally embrace again. God knows how much Melany talks about her, you can see that she misses her like crazy and not even with Namjoon she has that smile. But it is also true that Y/N had the power to make you feel special, different.

Meanwhile, I walked with my friends as each of them commented on today's meeting, needless to say that they were all thrilled.

Taehyung: - It doesn't seem possible... -

Yoongi: - What? -

Taehyung: - Do you find normal that that girl becomes more and more beautiful? -

Jin: - Here we go again. -

Yoongi: - Nothing to complain here. -

Hobi: - Wow, what a miracle. Yoongi has nothing more to add or to say. –

In response I saw Yoongi raise his eyebrows silently. I don't know why but his empty expression made me laugh at the murderous look on his face.

Taehyung: - But tell me something Yoongs, haven't you decided to ignore her forever? - He said dramatically.

Yoongi: - Yes... but the truth is that she didn't do anything wrong. Rather, she avoided me much more pain by deciding not to lie to me and I should thank her for that. -

I was silent all this time and Yoongi's last sentence created a flashback of a few seconds in my mind. For a few moments I remembered again that hotel room where we had taken refuge. I smiled thinking back but I canceled the smile after a second. So many things had happened since then and one of these things was calling me now on my cell phone.

I looked at the screen illuminated by the picture of me and Ji-Eun and I stayed a little behind the group so I could talk to her in private. I carried the phone to my ear and heard her voice on the other side.

- Hi babe, how are you? Am I disturbing you? -

I smiled, thinking of her pretty face.

- No not at all. I'm coming back from a place where we ate with an old friend. -

- A friend? Do I know her? - she asked curiously.

- No... we met her in Italy, she is Melany's best friend. -
