I woke up with my face filling stiff from the dried up tears.

I felt the other side of the bed to see if he was there.

It was cold.

Like he was never there before.

I rubbed my sore eyes and slipped the covers off of me and went to the bathroom.

I never noticed how stressed I look when I stopped in front of the bathroom mirror.

'Why are you doing this to yourself?' I thought as I looked at my messy hair and dark eye bags under my eyes.

I quickly washed my face to see where he had gone.

I was drying my face when I heard a sigh of frustration.

I walk out of the bathroom into the living room where I found Joon.

He had his notebook out and was writing what seemed to be lyrics and had paper balls all over the floor and couch.

"Joon?" I say as I stand at the doorway at his hunched over figure.

"What?" He says sounding annoyed.

"What are you doing?"

"Working what does it look like?" He says crumbling the paper he was writing on and throwing it with the rest of them.

"Can I listen to it?" I walk over and stand behind where the was sitting.

"No."

The front door then swung open revealing Kam and Jimin.

"Sup bishh!" Kam says as she places her keys on the coffee table.

"Aishh shit" I hear Joonie whisper.

"Hey Joon!" Jimin says sitting beside him.

"Hey Chim," he replies.

"So what have you guys been up to?" Kam says winking.

I don't say a word and just walk away into the kitchen where Kam followed me.

"What's up your ass?" Kam says crossing her arms.

"I'm fine, " I say as I pull out some bacon and eggs from the fridge.

"Did Y'all do anything?"

"Nope, I don't want to talk about it," I then continued to pull out a pan and placed it on the electric stove.

"You guys argued didn't you?" She says as she goes to wash her hands.

"How do you know?" I say placing the bacon in the pan.

"You cook when you're mad or you and he argued, "

"True, " I say rubbing my head.

"We did argue, about how we weren't spending enough time together," I say.

"What did he say?" Kam says grabbing the orange juice.

"He was busy, "

"That's a fucking excuse, " she says as she sips her juice.

"Maybe I'm being too selfish, "

"Bitch, you're not he is not fulfilling your needs!" She says slamming the cup down.

"But he does everything for me and pays for everything, "

"That's material things Ana, you need to show him you're not going to take his excuses like that, "

I then placed the cooked bacon on the plate that was ready.

"How?"

"Make him jealous! You know how jealous he is when it comes to you and Tae!" Kam says.

"Let's do it, " I say with determination.

"You can do it when we go to Malta!"

"Wait what?!"
