After an exhausting flight Seokjin finally arrived at the Incheon Airport in South Korea. He got off of the plane with a smile plastered on his face. He really loved this country.

You see, he wanted to just start over with his life. America didn't really suit him, and he has always had a thing for South Korea. So yeah why not?

After going through customs and going to the baggage claim he stood outside. The air was quite polluted and humid, but he didn't focus on that. He just wanted to get in a damn taxi.

"Yah! You assholes what is this? I just want to get to my apartment dickheads! I swear to god I will give you all a bad review on tripadvisor." He yelled angrily, voice barely audible due to the planes taking off.

After what felt like an hour, but actually was ten minutes a cab stopped in front of him.

"Thank god! Yeah I have to go to *insert cool street name*, do you think you can get me there?" Seokjin said to the man that had stepped out of the car. He showed him the street name on his iPhone and the man finally recognized the place.

After placing his three huge pink suitcases and two backpacks in the trunk they were good to go, and headed to Seokjin's new home.

It was already dark outside when he arrived. After getting paid, the taxi driver drove off, leaving Jin all alone on the dark, nearly abandoned street, with too much luggage to carry on his own.

So he went searching for his apartment.

And he searched.

And searched.

"Well fuck" He breathed out after looking for two hours. It was currently 11:46 p.m. and his eyelids were becoming heavy. He still hadn't found his damn apartment.

He sat down on the pavement, back resting against a door.

A door? A door!

Seokjin whipped his head around to see what it looked like. The door was dirty and pieces of dark green paint were coming off. The wood was rotting and smelling badly. But the one thing he saw that caught his attention was a note on the door itself:

Project: apartment block.
Company: swagmonster
Started: May 26th 2017
Ended: CANCELLED

So that's how he realized he actually got scammed by someone who was pretending to be from the company, and trying to sell him a non-existent apartment.

"Oh my god..." he didn't know how to react, so he just sat down again and started crying. He felt so lost, in a strange city he didn't know well, no Korean speaking skills, a phone with 0% and nowhere to stay.

He didn't know when he stopped crying and closed his eyes, but he was startled when he heard two of his standing suitcases fall to the ground. And a voice.

Seokjin looked up to see a man grabbing his two suitcases and grabbing them, putting them back, only to step forward and trip over one of Jin's backpacks. The stranger just sighed to himself.

The man finally noticed the crying boy and started speaking Korean to him, with a really smooth, and kind of a familiar voice if I might add.

"Uhh... I don't- I can't, eh... English?" He just stuttered. The man looked Jin in the eyes, his face mask and cap making sure only a part of his eyes were visible.

"Are you okay? Why are you crying?" The man said. Jin was relieved he could speak English, but ended up crying even harder, hugging himself while trying to hide his face.

"Hey, come on... don't hide your face. Here, I'll help you stand up." The man said. Weirdly, Jin complied and let the man help him. After standing on his feet, the stranger gave him a comforting hug. But he was still crying .

"Mind telling me why you're crying?" He said, while petting the back of the other's hair. He could feel Jin nod and pull away
from his grip. He sniffed before speaking.

In between his sobs, he managed to explain what happened and how he's been crying for two hours, not knowing what to do.

It was comforting, telling the stranger what happened to him. Jin found it nice how he listened to him, showed him he cared.

After explaining his story, the stranger thought for a while before speaking.

"How about you sleep at my place for the night, I'm sure the others wouldn't mind." Seokjin just looked at him skeptical and frowned at his offer. The stranger just laughed a bit at his own words before continuing.

"Oh yeah, right. I'm just a stranger to you, I totally forgot. I just want to help you out okay? I know I'm asking a lot from you but I need you to trust me, you think you can do that?"

Seokjin nodded hesitantly. I mean, he didn't have anywhere to go anyway so this might me his best chance at surviving this drama.

So they both grabbed the heavy luggage and started walking. After walking for two minutes, the man gasped and stopped walking.

"I totally forgot to ask you your name!"

Jin smiled and held his hand out for the younger to shake.

"Kim Seokjin, nice to meet you ... eh?"

"Kim Namjoon."

Oof. Sorry for grammar mistakes etc. I have so many idea's for this story it's not okay. Like not not.

JSKSJDKS I just noticed I made Jin sound like a real dick at the beginning of the chapter. He's just ranting like that one Christmas Vlive if you know what I mean :')
