♡ | Chapter 15

"she tried to steal Jimin's bag!"

We were late.

During one of their Vlives, V had accidentally leaked the name of the hotel we were staying at. And now a massive crowd has gathered around the hotel, blocking all exits.

Getting through the crowd would take only 5 minutes if they make way for us to pass.

Several bodygaurds had already assembled at the reception area. Only when we reached them did I noticed just how big the crowd was.

They were all over. Screaming and snapping pictures. It was ten times worse than the crowd at the promo.

I was now sure that we were screwed. Forget 5 minutes. I'd be happy if we got through in 30.

The boys pushed through the crowd ahead of me and I followed at the rear end.

Suddenly, I felt someone roughly grab my arm and pull me sideways.

It all happened within seconds.

Before I could comprehend what was going on, he caught a fist full of my hair, jerked my head back and smashed his mouth onto mine.

The sharp pain of my teeth cutting into my lip was all I could feel and the shrill ringing in my ears drowned the screams around me.

Just as instantly as I was attacked, I was pulled back by the bodygaurd who was behind me.

The man who had assaulted me was then pulled into a headlock and pushed to the ground by several other hotel gaurds.

The crowd gave us a wide berth when they noticed the commotion and I cowered behind the guard trying to get away from the cameras that now pointed at me.

"What happened?"

"Who is that?"

"Omg, what's going on?"

"He tried to kiss her!"

"Who is he?"

"It's a thief! He tried to steal Jimin's bag."

"What? Oh gosh!"

"That's why Jimin's looking back."

"No! He's a psycho! I saw it. He tried to hit that girl!"

"Why?"

"She tried to steal Jimin's bag!"

"Omg that bitch!"

"Who is she?"

"She looks familiar."

"Wait...That's Jin's girlfriend!"

"Omg, omg, omg...!!"

People who didn't see the incident were asking what happened. And the one's who got a slight glimpse, exaggeratedly told them what they saw adding extra bits and pieces to the story as they went on.

All I knew was that I wouldn't be ready for the gossip and fan-theories that would probably blast out in the internet.

I looked over the hundreds of heads to see if the boys were around, and saw them still moving towards the exit. Only Jimin kept glancing back while being pushed forward by the crowd.

Sensing that he was probably wondering if I was okay, I tiptoed and raised my arm, showing him a thumbs up, so that he would continue walking without trying to wait for me.

Even though it felt like a long time, only a couple of seconds had passed through the whole ordeal.

Once my adrenaline rush calmed down, my senses revived. The metallic taste of blood registered on my tongue and I started really feeling the pain where my lip was cut, hair was pulled and arm was crushed.

I'll be seeing some nasty bruises by tomorrow, that's for sure.

Pushing all those thoughts aside, I focused on the situation at hand. If the boys wait for me to reach them it would only waste more time, and I knew my face looked like a mess right now so I didn't want to show up like this and make them feel unsettled in any way.

I felt someone place a hand on my shoulder and turn me around, speaking with his oh-so-familiar voice, "Lisa, are you okay?"
