Not Like Me (Seven x Reader)

Wait

As I walked away when the group was distracted, I jumped up at a sudden
"WAIT!"
Quickly followed by a hand grabbing my shoulder. "...what...?" I managed to croak out

"I never really did get to express how sorry I was, and are you okay? Is your head fine?" The man with red hair asked," I really am sorry..."

"uh...... yeah...? I mean, are you okay?" I asked, once again at a loss for words.

"Yes!" He said enthusiastically," can I do anything to make this up to you?"

"No thank you." I responded, however I really wanted to make him buy me food.

"Please I insist!" He responded, almost immediately.

"Dude, just leave the poor girl alone. She probably thinks you're a creepy jerk who bumps into people on purpose. Let a real ladies' man handle this." Zen said," I'm so sorry for my incompetent friend over here, please forgive him. Do you mind if he treats you to lunch, Yoosung and I will leave so you can lecture him all you want~ Doesn't that sound lovely?"

"Well.... I guess... is there a limit to how much I can spend..?" I ask.

"Of course not~ he's practically rich~" Zen responds.

"WAIT WHAT? I'M GOING TO GO BROKE! AND SINCE WHEN DID YOU GET TO INVITE PEOPLE TO LUNCH FOR ME?!?" The man with the golden eyes boomed.

"I'm very sorry... to cause this much trouble. You don't have to. I don't even know why this is still an option." I said apologetically, all I wanted to do was go back to Magenta. I miss the savior, I miss the feeling of belonging to something, being someone. Why don't these people notice that I just want to leave, why can't they understand...?

"Are you...? Are you crying?." Yoosung asks in a very caring manner.

"Nice man! Real nice! REAL NICE! You made a girl cry. You're never living this down!" Zen booms.

"I'm sorry... I can't even see anything! I broke my glasses!" The man says.

"I want to leave." I say.

"Hm?"

"Look at everyone staring. I apologized. You apologized. I declined the offer to lunch. I don't see what's left in this conservation except you making a fool of yourself. Please excuse me." I say bluntly. Everyone in the room was unable to find words for what I just said. I was so confused with all the emotions I just had. I felt humiliated. Why couldn't these guys just leave me alone? Zen, Yoosung, and that other random guy. As I stood up I heard a few whispers from the spectators. I didn't care. Is this what the world is like? If so, Saeran was right. Magenta really is paradise.

                                           -

As I sat down in my car, I wondered if coming here was really worth it? I don't want to go back anymore? But I don't want to stay. I have been waiting for this moment for months, but why am I so disappointed. It's because of those GUYS. What are the chances of running into them? Slim to nothing. I might as well go to a new place and explore a bit more before I return to Magenta.

I now go to a bookstore since most jerks don't seem invested in learning valuable things.

"Excuse me dearie... may I have that seat there? There seems to not be many seats left and I'm not as young as I used to be..." said an unfamiliar, yet comforting voice.

Startled I responded quickly and got up from my seat," Yes of course, I apologize miss-" as I look at the person who is speaking I notice that they are not an old woman, but a man. A man with white hair and pink tips. "Saeran...? SAERAN! I told you not to screw this up for me. What are you doing here?!"

"Savior had vision that you would be in trouble. She was very concerned and wanted you to return immediately, no further questions." Saeran said.

"Seriously? You're not just making this up?"

"I am, but do you really want to stay here?" He asked.

"Kind of..."

"Well too bad, I got you a new project anyways. It's an important one too. Savior is really trusting you for this. You need to return now."

Sigh. Well. This is what wanted, to return to paradise. Might as well not fight it. Rika would be so angry if I defied her. Who knows what I'll be subjected to. "What's it about?"

"Does it matter? Savior is trusting you."

"Just tell me."

"You're going to her old apartment, signing onto the RFA messenger and inviting all of them to paradise, but only after you gain their trust. And she warned you to be careful, because although they may appear ignorant they are all very smart. Let's go shall we?"

As we walked to my car. I knew this was going to be a long drive. With Saeran and my exhaustion I was at a breaking point. The excitement for the new project was the only thing that kept me going, knowing I could please Rika.
