Fresh Meat

Himchan sat himself down in the chair across from the dirty blonde women and smiled to her easily 

"I'm here because the air between us was never cleared was it?" He asked looking at his nails 

Jin Ah looked over at Himchan and tilted her head "What air?" she questioned

"I have a lot i want to say, so i need you to be quiet and listen till i'm done alright?" Himchan smiled sweetly

Jin Ah frowned and little but reluctantly she crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair ready to hear what he was going to say. Himchan laughed at her reaction 

"First i'm going to apologise for what i said, about you ruining my career. I ended up playing basketball professionally for four years" Himchan smiled happily to himself 

"but like most things that has ended, on good terms of course. My ankles kept getting worse" He said looking up at the ceiling "so i'm going to take over my fathers company and be living in Seoul" 

Jin Ah's eyebrows began to knit together in confusion why is he telling me this?

"So i will be looking out for this Im company, i don't want another scandal that could possibly ruin everything my family worked so hard for"

Jin Ah went to open in protest but reframed and stayed quiet 

"You know that there was a time when i actually thought you liked me Miss Im" Himchan smiled tapping his chin as he looked out the window, Jin Ah felt a pit form in her stomach 

"I even dumped my girlfriend for you but i guess we all make mistakes right?" 

"Himchan i" 

"I'm not finished" Himchan said hushing her before she could say more "That was years ago though, so it has no meaning now, i just wanted to come by and clear the air" He said standing up 

"I hope you're still doing well with Seungho or whatever his name was" Himchan smiled warmly at her "I just wanted to let you know that i wont let you walk all over me like last time, i no longer trust people like you and i wont let you try and tear down my families company again"

Jin Ah kept from falling open, that was not what she expected to hear at all

"Fairwell now Im Jin Ah, stay well" Himchan bowed and then left the office without another word.


 

"I want to hold Daeho~" Jungkook whined stretching out his arms in hopes Junhong would give him the sleeping baby 

"Jungkook i just got him to sleep" Junhong protested holding his son close to his chest

Taehyung rolled his eyes in frustration, he had his eye glued to the door, he just wanted to see Hara2. The door pushed open and Taehyung stood up in excitement only to sit back down in disappointment at seeing Tiffany walk in. 

"What am i not good enough for you Taehyung?" Tiffany asked placing her hands on her hips

"You're not Hara are you" He said shooing her out of his view

Jungkook hugged Tiffany and Tiffany petted Junhong's head not wanting hime to move and potentially wake up Daeho

"How have you guys been it's been a while hasn't it?" She smiled sitting next to Jungkook

"It really feels like it's been forever" Jungkook laughed happily

A small smiled spread across Junhong's face "What have you all been up to?"

"I just finished the tour in Japan it's so nice to be home, of course i love what i do but it's nice to take a break"

"When do you head back to LA?" Junhong asked 

"next week, Nichkhun and i are going back on Tuesday" she smiled 

"yaaah, can you all pipe down?" Taehyung whined turning to them with a twisted face. A pair of hands slid over Taehyung's eyes. He held the hands tightly with excitement

"Hara?~!" 

"Wrong" Sulli laughed hitting his head playfully as she sat down next to him 

"Waaaaaah! When is she going to be here?" He whined ignoring Sulli 

"Good to see you too" Sulli replied with a roll of her eyes

Jungkook blinked at Sulli "Your hair.... it's so short"

"and so red" Tiffany added

"New concept" Sulli laughed playing with her hair nervously 

"It looks nice" Junhong said happily 

"Thank you. Aw aw how is Daeho~" Sulli cooed as she reached out her arms for him 

Junhong pass the little boy over to her willingly and Sulli smiled playfully at the sleeping baby "He's so so so cute~"

"No thanks to Junhong" Taehyung muttered looking away from the table and back at the door

"Why is he here, all he does is annoy me" Tiffany snarled 

"Because believe it or not you and him use to be best friends" Jungkook laughed showing his aegyo to the now awake child 

"That was years ago, he's obviously changed" She said matter of factly as she smiled at the small baby 

"If you guys want you can keep him till Andy get's back" Junhong teased watching his friends fall in love with his child 

"Can Daeho have a sleep over at Aunty Tiffany's house" Tiffany asked pulling funny faces at Daeho 

"Sure" Junhong sighed sleepily 

"Yah, that kid is boring" Taehyung said turning around 

"Tae, for god sakes, i'm sorry but Yongguk hyung and Luci Noona are like family to me and Andy" Junhong sighed in annoyance

"Well that's not my fault, i could still be the god father!" Taehyung almost shouted 

Hara laughed as she walked into the little diner as the fight between her old friends ignited. She wasn't expected them to be sitting in silence when he got there but she wasn't expecting them to be yelling and screaming at each other.

A now brown haired Junhong who still had his baby cheeks and more then likely was still extremely tall was bickering with a orange haired Taehyung who had grown into his face more and looked even more handsome then he did when he was younger. A almost purpled hair Jungkook, who looked a lot more musclor then previously remembered trying to break up the fight, a black haired Tiffany, who looked even more beautiful then she was a teenager pulling faces at her nephew and a short, red haired Sulli who looked so much older and more sophisticated losing her girl next door look, cuddling the child happily. 

Hara made her way over to her embarrassing friends who were recieveing looks from everyone inside the diner. She took in a deep breath, knowing that she would be recieving these looks as well if she sat down with them. Something in her brain was telling her to come back in a few minutes when they had possibly sorted it all out but she ended up sitting down inbetween Tiffany and Taehyung.

"what's happening?" she asked taking off her coat 

"Taehyung is fighting over why he didn't get to be god father again" Tiffany replied not paying proper attention to Hara

"ahh i see, why is it such a big deal?" Hara asked 

"BECAUSE IT WAS MY JOB I WOULD BE THE BEST GOD FATHER EVER" Taehyung yelled back also not noticing Hara's persence 

"YONGGUK IS GOD FATHER GET OVER IT!" Junhong yelled 

"Can you all be quiet! You'll make Daeho cry" Sulli whined covering the babies ears

"Aw Daeho is so cute" Hara smiled "Let aunty Hara see you~!" She smiled stretching out her hands to take him.

Within a blink of the eye everyones yelling and squabbling ended and all their attention was on Hara who had finally gotten noticed, she looked at them all sheepishly "what?"

"YOU DIDN'T EVEN SAY YOU WERE HERE!" 

"I CANT BELIEVE YOU JUST SAT DOWN WITHOUT SAYING HELLO WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!"

"HARA YOUR HAIR IS SO SHORT OH MY GOD, WOW LOOK AT IT, IT LOOKS SO HEALTHY!"

"HARA I MISSED YOU SO MUCH PLEASE SAVE ME FROM THESES IDIOTS!" 

Everyone was screaming and scrambling over each other to hug Hara and tell her how much they missed her, Hara just laughed at them all, feeling the judgemental eyes of everyone at the diner staring at her but none of that mattered because she was so happy to see everyone again, it really felt like she was back in high school again except there was now a baby.

"Everyone just calm down!" Hara yelled waving her hands around like she was swatting fies

They all laughed and relaxed a little in their seats, except Taehyung who had his arms wrapped around Hara "Hara i missed you so so so so so sosososoosos so much~ Why did you go away for so long, i was so sad~~" he whined

Hara petted his head and laughed "You're a big star now, why didn't you come and visit me?" she teased

Taehyung whined even louder "I WAS SO SO BUSY AND I REALLY WANTED TO I PROMISEEEEEEE~"

"Anyway" Jungkook said pulling Hara into a conversation with everyone else "How have you been, you look so different"

"You look so business savey~" Tiffany said investigating Hara's outfit playfully

"That hair cut really suits you!" Sulli added happily 

"Are you almost finished at Uni yet?" Junhong asked

"I'm good, really good. Yeah once i got to New York, i felt like my look wasn't something that suited such a fast paced place so i switched up my look. Thank you, thank you, and this is my last year" Hara smiled answering them all 

"That is good, that is so good!" Taehyung said letting go of Hara "you know that Ji-" Sulli swiftly kicked Taehyung under the table making him be quiet 

Hara tilted her head "what were you saying?" 

"Look Daeho wants to meet Aunty Hara" Sulli smiled passing her the little boy

Hara played happily with Daeho while Sulli pulled Taehyung closer to her "do you really need to mention Jimin?" She mumbled 

"I was just thinking since she was back in town they could meet up" Taehyung confessed

"Remember she is in a relationship with Jin" Sulli whispered back 

"yeah but" 

"Taehyung don't try and play match maker, it might end badly"

"But it could end goodly"

"Taehyung, just let them meet on their own don't force them into anything"

"Jinri you know that he is still in love with her, That interview the other day..." Taehyung said still remembering the shock on his face as Jimin sat next to him watching it with him on TV "why can't we just help them a little?"

Sulli shook her head "Stay out of it it's none of you business"

Taehyung sighed in defeat and went back to his usual outspoken self. Sulli went back to being happy and smiley but kept her eyes on Taehyung in case he said something that he shouldn't. Sulli wasn't about holding Hara back if she did have feelings for Jimin but she didn't want Jimin to get hurt if Hara had moved on and vice versa. She was just trying to protect her friends.


 

"So this is where you'll be working from now on" Mr Kim smiled opening the door to Himchan's new office

"It's nice" Himchan smiled walking in to see his own picture on the wall inbetween to his little sister and mother

Mr Kim smiled happily closing the door behind him "When do you plan on starting?" 

"Whenever you want me to, i really don't mind" Himchan replied sitting down at his fathers chair 

"Have you told Hara yet? That you are taking over the family company?" 

"No, i told her that i still had a place on the team" Himchan laughed looking around the large room

Mr Kim sighed, he wanted to ask why but realised it would be a waste of breath knowing that Himchan wouldn't tell him no matter how much he grilled his son. He just walked over to Himchan's new desk 

"You know, i never wanted you to take over this company without fufilling your dream first"

"And i have, so it's alright dad" Himchan smiled sweetly 

Mr Kim petted Himchan's hair messily "Start on Monday kiddo" he laughed leaving the room.


 

"Do you need a ride home?" Junhong asked clipping Daeho in his car seat

"No, no Jin is picking me up and taking me out for dinner" Hara smiled as her friend all crowded around Junhong's car

"You just ate" Taehyung stated in a confused tone

"Are you sure? I live near you now" Junhong said ignoring him completely

"It's fine i swear" Hara smiled hugging him

"you better get home and feed your snot nosed kid" Taehyung teased pretending to pluck Daeho's nose from his face, Daeho grabbed taehyung's hand happily and slobbered all over it 

"and everyone wonders why i hate this kid" Taehyung muttered wiping all the mess back on Daeho.

"Alright, well lets not wait four years to see each other again" Junhong smiled closing Daeho's door 

Jungkook looked concerned "are you really driving that sports car with a child?"

"It's not even a sports car" Junhong said dismissively as he walked to the drivers side "I'll see you all later, come round whenever you want. You can all become slaves to Daeho like me" Junhong laughed as he got in the car and left.

Next was Tiffany hugging everyone and punching Taehyung lightly in the stomach "you're still annoying as hell" she laughed kissing the top of his head "I'll see you guys in a bit, i love you all" She smiled leaving in her car

Jungkook hugged everyone and walked off down the street as the company he was working at was only a block away, Sulli hugged everyone tightly and left with Jungkook as her apartment was along the way.

It was just Taehyung and Hara who were talking comfortably to each other while they waited

"are you driving home or is someone picking you up?" Haras asked curiously 

"Oh you know someones coming to get me" Taehyung smile Jimin hurry up or you'll miss her

"Oh maybe i'll get to meet him or her"

"It's a him" Taehyung smiled and you already know him


 

Jimin pulled up outside the tacky diner and looked at it in disgust why would Taehyung want to come here? It's gross and old and the food could kill you he thought silently to himself. He saw taehyung pulling over someone with him to Jimin's car and sighed If it's another fan girl who he promised i would take a picture with i will kill him.

Even though those were his thoughts Jimin plastered a smile on his face not wanting to offend whoever this girl was. As they got closer Jimin stared more and more curiously at the girl with Taehyung. Suddenly the girl pulled away from Taehyung and looked over at the car with curious eyes, she was talking and pointing to the car, Taehyung waved his hands in front of him, Jimin was getting more and more confused. He opened his car door and started walking over to them. The girl looked over at him and the two both stopped what they were doing and stared at each other with wide eyes. 

Hara watched as a teenage version of herself ran over to the boy hugging him tightly and refusing to let go, while he smirked at her and hugged her back kissing his forehead. Blinking rapidly to erase the image in front of her, she stared at him intently, he hadn't really changed, he still dressed the same, his hair was still black but his face looked older, more mature, more handsome. Hara could feel the contents of her stomach being replaced by butterflies that were flying violently.

Jimin continued to stare, she had changed so much. The long hair gone, the cute clothes replaced by smart business clothing, the young girl he remembered no long in front of him, now stood a women. A women that he hadn't seen in four years since he walked her home as they quietly counted the stars. His manger meeting them outside her house to give her, her plane ticket that meant she was going away, far away from him and possibly not returning. Yet here she was right in front of him. He couldn't believe it, and he was finding it increasingly harder to breathe.

Taehyung fidgeted with his fingers quietly as a smile fought it's way on his face "sorry Jinri" he mumbled to himself


 

Author Note:

oOOooooooO Himchan keeping secrets, Hara and Jimin meeting again after so long, Jin being late (wow get a watch, this guy seriously) what will happen next?!?!?! Who knows? I don't even know, i'm literally just going with a flow, if you could call it a flow. This chapter is quite long too sorry about that, but i had a lot i wanted to explain in this chapter (Basically Himchan talking to Jin Ah) and a lot i wanted to cover (the reuniting of fraaandsss aka Hara and all of duh baes)

Also i just wanted to say 

1. My idea for the previous ending, i scrapped it compleletly, i don't feel like it fit it but i will (when i finally) finish the story write it as in alternate ending. So you can all decide whether you like it or not.

2. This story might not have a happy ending (sorry) Not everyone is going to end up happy and comfortable (why because i'm an once again sorry)

3. There will probably be a lot more drama, because i am a stirrer and like to stir the pot

Also can we just talk about how far off track this fanficition has gotten wow, remember when it was set in high school, most of this story has been outside of school completely wow fail on my part but i'm glad you all like it anyway. 

Anywhooooooooooo~ i hope you like this chapter, i just wanted to clear some stuff up before i continued on with this story. Have a great day/evening/morning.

Chapter 49: It feels like so long ago but it was, as I mentioned before, 2 or 3 hours ago when I started this fic. I caught that reference to the beginning of the story with Tiffany and Himchan saying "Don't vomit on my shoes." Thank you Author-nim for creating this wonderful piece of literature. I love you~ <3

Chapter 48: Wow! That was really good!!!

But the ending was a tad disappointing, I was expecting of something grand and "damn, that was not what I expected" or something like that ^^

Nevertheless, the story is very good!!

Great job authornim :D :D
