Trang’s POV…

I was speechless when I saw the press conference live on television that day.

“WHAT THE HELL?!” I shouted at the top of my lungs, chucking the remote at the screen, uncaring if it would break it on impact.

“Ms. Arisa, are you alright?” A naggy voice ran into my room causing me to growl at my manager, Sarah, who just stood there.

“GET OUT OF HERE!” I shouted at her, throwing my coffee mug at her as it shattered against the wall. I sat there with my jaw to my lap as he confessed his feelings for that damned woman, and even threatened his fans to keep her safe.

“That damn hussy.” I hissed through my teeth, holding a pillow in between my teeth, ripping it to shreds as the feathers dropped slowly to my bed. I was beyond pissed, but at the same time I had to admit that it was extremely sad and hurtful to see this all happen right in front of me. Before long, I had noticed my cheeks were suddenly wet as I reached up and touched them to see that I had been crying this whole time.

“, doesn’t know who she’s messing with.” I growled smirking when I saw my container of anxiety pills siting on my nightstand. I smirked to the bottle before looking to the newly announced couple on television, now posing for the press. Kicking my legs out from my comforter, I grabbed the bottle of pills before running into my conjoined bathroom and slammed the door. I looked at myself in the mirror before smirking down at the bottle.

“Two can play that game. I’ll take him back for myself.” I whispered evilly opening the bottle before chugging the entire contents within 5 minutes. Before I knew it, I felt nothing, no pain, no happiness, no warmth or cold, nothing, I kind of liked it.

Author’s POV…

“Ms. Arisa?” Sarah called out for the dozens time, knocking on the bathroom door where the light was shining from underneath the door.

“Ms. Arisa? You have a meeting in 30 minutes.” Sarah spoke anxiously, checking the time before finally resorting into grabbing the handle and turning it to find it unlocked.

“Ms. Arisa?” Sarah whispered peeking in before her eyes shot open in horror. There lied Arisa on the bathroom floor, pale, unconscious with a medicine bottle empty next to her.

“OH MY GOD! ARISA! ARISA!” Sarah shouted through tears trying to get her to come around before finally the ambulances arrived.

Big Bang and the US Team had the afternoon off after the Press Conference. Everything had gone as planned, not all fans were happy but they seemed to have backed off better than anyone thought. Leaving the conference building, Jiyong and Hoku proudly walked out now hand in hand, not having to worry about what anyone saw. They still rode in opposite vehicles and decided everyone needed to have an early dinner, and so that’s where they were going.

“So how do you feel now, Ms. Kwon?” Tyra teased as Hoku rolled her eyes before looking over her shoulder.

“Oh well Ms. Choi, I’m feeling unusually chipper at the moment.” Hoku answered back sarcastically causing Eden and Steph to laugh in the back seat.

“Ya! I’m Tyra Salsbury!” Tyra scolded before the girls nodded sarcastically.

“Oh yah, sure. We all know how much you want that last name.” Selena teased as Hoku chuckled.

“You think everything will be easier from now on?” Steph asked as Hoku shrugged.

“I don’t know, probably not, but I do feel a bit more relieved now that everyone knows.” Hoku admitted smiling out the front window.

“You do look happier Hoku-ssi.” Mr. Kim pointed out as Hoku smiled over to him.

“You really think so?” She asked holding her cheeks, afraid of the blush that might give her away. He just laughed and nodded.

“I think I really am.” Hoku admitted smiling even larger as they pulled up to the restaurant. It wasn’t some high end restaurant, but a local restaurant that surprising enough cooked western style food.

“Here we are.” Mr. Kim pointed out parking the van alongside the building.

“Come on Mr. Kim, you need to eat too.” Hoku urged climbing out as he looked at her surprised.

“Our treat.” She offered as he smiled before nodding and joining them. Hoku made sure to rip Big Bang’s driver Kyung out of the van before he tried to drive off, and into the restaurant with them. Of course the moment they stepped in, fans began to go wild so Hoku asked if they could get a booth out of eye range, and if they could keep the other customers on this side of the building. Lucky enough they had a top floor that was usually rented out for business groupings or birthday parties. Big Bang gladly rented the floor, letting the employees set up the tables and chairs before they took their orders.

“Can’t believe this place actually makes Clam Chowder.” Eden whispered still in disbelief while Hoku squealed from next to Jiyong.

“I’m guessing you like that a lot noona?” Seungri asked over before Tyra, Eden and Selena nodded.

“More than we would like to explain.” Tyra whispered over warningly. Jiyong just smiled at his girlfriend’s excited face, glad that neither of them would ever have to hide their feelings for each other in public, he was going to enjoy himself to the end. Reaching over to hold her hand, he intertwined his fingers in hers as she looked over smiling.

“So when can we expect some god children from the two of you?” Taeyang asked over amused while the new couple blushed.

“Oppa.” Hoku whined as the groups all laughed their heads off.

“Hey, I’m not getting any younger here. I want some nieces and nephews, soon.” Top urged as everyone broke out laughing again.

“Hyung.” Jiyong whined embarrassed as they all continued to laugh.

“How about you two pop out some kids so I can spoil them crazy?” Jiyong retorted pointing at Top and Tyra sitting directly across from them. They immediately stopped laughing and looked at each other in horror. Jiyong and Hoku made it this time to laugh their heads off at the blushing unknown couple.

Their various dishes came before Jiyong’s phone began to go off.

“Oh, wonder who it is?” He mumbled, putting his spoon down to pull out his phone. He stared at it confused, not recognizing the phone number before he finally answered it.

“Hello?” He answered as everyone was immersed in their various chats with each other.

“Is this Kwon Jiyong?” The female voice asked as Jiyong’s eyes darted over to Youngbae who was staring at him intently.

“Ah yes, this is he.” Jiyong mentioned confused.

“This is Nurse Chao from Tokyo Medical Center.” She said as Jiyong’s heart began to race.

“Is there a problem?” Jiyong asked confused.

“We have a patient by the name of Arisa Conn.” She mentioned as his eyes shot open.

“What happened?” Jiyong asked slightly startled and alarmed.

“She was found in her hotel bathroom unconscious, with a bottle of prescription drugs empty next to her. It is our understanding that she attempted suicide and now is with us under suicide watch. The reason I called is because Ms. Conn is constantly screaming and yelling for you, we think if your schedule allows, it would do her good if you could be here for some moral support.” The nurse explained as his world came crashing down on me. Not only was his ex in the hospital on the brink of insanity, but he had promised Hoku that he would never see or contact her ever again. Jiyong didn’t know what to do, knowing if he told Hoku the truth she would forbid him to go, but something in him was urging JIyong to go to Trang to make sure she was alright. Jiyong sighed looking to Taeyang’s worried expression before he looked to my lap ashamed of the mistake he was about to make.

“I’ll be right there.” Jiyong quickly said before hanging up.

“Um, I have to go somewhere really quick.” Jiyong mentioned as Hoku looked over from her conversation with Steph confused.

“What? Where?” She asked both confused and hurt.

“YG wants me to meet with a few broadcasters here on our conference.” Jiyong quickly pulled up the biggest and most believable lie he could muster. Hoku’s eyes lit up before she nodded in understanding.

“Alright, don’t be long. I’ll take your food to the hotel.” She offered as he nodded, pulling his chair out to stand before leaning in and kissing her head.

“Don’t wait up for me.” He offered walking over to the door as everyone stared at his startled expression.

“Call me.” She shouted after him as he disappeared through the doorway. Taeyang on the other hand, kept his stare to the door in question to what really was going on. If it was for YG he would have asked one of them to tag along as he always did. Something was totally up.
