House of Cards {Taehyung x Reader}

Chapter 21

"Your flight was canceled!" I yelled into my phone.
"There was a storm last night and they canceled all the flights till tonight." Taehyung spoke quickly, he was obviously as upset as I was.
"So... I'm stuck here. By myself... Till tomorrow?" I looked at my surroundings. The airport was very open and the humid Hawaiian air flew around me.
"Yes. The crew is saying you're not allowed to leave the airport."
"Where am I supposed to sleep?"
"There is a motel directly next to it, they're booking you a room right now." I let out a sigh.
"Okay. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Love you."
"Love you too." I hung up. Luckily the airport was full of little cafes and shops so I wouldn't starve. I digged through my bag to retrieve my wallet. I had $5 USD in cash and my debit card has about $8 USD... if I'm lucky. I pulled out a different card and a smile lit up my face. My BigHit company card. Since I wasn't allowed to get a job they gave me a credit card in case I needed anything.
"This meal's on you BigHit." I whispered to myself. Dragging my suitcase behind me, I made my way to the closest shop. It was filled with bags of chips and candy, no real food. I paid for a bag of Doritos and a coke and started for a small cafe across the way. I took my time to scan the limited menu and ended up ordering a breakfast burrito and some other small pastries. Now to the motel.
I'm really thankful they decided to go somewhere in the states and not somewhere foreign. I would not have been able to find the motel if I were anywhere else. After checking in I walked to my room.
It took some strength to push open the heavy door while carrying my food and bags but I managed. The room was small and dark. The two matching beds faced an old box tv and the door to the bathroom was slightly open to reveal a plethora of towels. With a sigh I dropped all my stuff on the extra bed and grabbed my burrito.
Jokingly I took a picture of me with a big cheesy smile, my cheeks stuck out from the amount of food that was in it and I held up the burrito next to my face. Taehyung opened it almost immediately and screenshotted it, what a dork.

...

I changed the channel for what seemed like the millionth time. The excitement of seeing Tae kept me up. It's been 3 months since I've seen any of the boys. I've missed hugging them all and messing around all the time. Plus they happen to be the only real friends I have left after the Disneyland incident. I need them more than ever now.
They got on the plane a few hours ago so I haven't had anyone to talk to. Every once in a while some one would pass in front of the door giving me an uneasy feeling. I've never slept in a hotel by myself and I'm not gonna lie I hated it. I jumped at every sound.
Slowly my eyes began to droop, allowing me to sleep.

...

My alarm clock blasted through the silent room. Without hesitation I jumped out of bed. Ignoring the dizziness from getting up too fast I ran to the bathroom to shower.
A smile was plastered on my face during my entire morning routine. My hair and makeup were done perfectly and I chose a floral jumpsuit to wear. After putting on a few bracelets to cover my scars I twirled in front of the mirror. Their plane was going to land in exactly 1 hour which gave me enough time to get breakfast.
Joy radiated off of me as I checked out and made my way through the airport. The air was warm and smelled of flowers, all I want to do is go swimming. After retreating yet another breakfast burrito and eating it I waited for them by the gate.
Everytime a group of people approached the terminal exit I looked up, it began looking a bit pathetic. A large group of boys blocked my view of the exit. They were obviously here for some sort of sport competition, probably soccer. I contorted my body to try to see behind them but gave up and continued to scroll through my phone impatiently.
"Hey." One of the boys detached from the group and sat next to me.
"Hi." I tried to reply politely.
"Why is a gorgeous girl like you sitting alone?" I blushed at his compliment.
"I-uhm. I'm waiting for my family." I blurted out. He looked at me like I was his meal. I nervously glanced down the hallway.
"I don't usually ask this but... could I get your number?" I could feel my anxiety slowly rise.
"Sorry but I have a boyfriend."
"Well then let's just be friends." He smiled, his teeth were pure white.
"I'm not allowed to give out my number." Get gave me a weird look.
"Not allowed?"
"Yeah, my company won't let me." I caught a glimpse of some men with cameras turning the corner towards the terminal exit.
"What do you-"
"Listen I really have to go you can add me on Snapchat, (Snapchat username)." I clumsily grabbed all my stuff and began shoving my way through the crowd of his friends. Out of excitement I threw my stuff to the ground and starting sprinting towards the now visible Korean boys.
One of the cameraman saw me and turned to film me. Taehyung dropped his bag and met me halfway down the hallway. We latched on perfectly without any injuries.
My heart ached with happiness. The familiar warmth of his covered me and I felt like I could finally breathe.

A/N: Sorry for such a short chapter but the next few will be jam packed with fluff and a bit of drama ;). Thanks for reading!! -M
