"Okay so since you have fans, I want you to come up with a fan name. Come up with a few, so we have options to choose from, cool?

"Okay, sounds fun"

"One last thing Iris. I have hired an employee who will be with you when you're here at the academy, who will keep you where you need to be and help you to handle work stuff. She is also a security detail. She will be with you when you're working, and if you want her to go with you when you go out alone, she will. She lives in your apartment building, so she is accessible. She will drive you here, instead of going with the boys, so that we can start to build your own image. When you debut we want you to be known as Iris, not BTS's soulmate. We hope she will also become your friend. Her name is Cherry. Questions?"

"Okay so I understand why I should have some of that but why is she also security detail, why do I need that?"

"Because there is a group of BTS sasaengs that are sending death threats, because you took BTS from them, so we are being cautious."

"Oh, Well I guess I'll just have to be strong. Can I go to practice now?"

"Yes, and Cherry is there waiting for you, and we have briefed her on what to do if you have a panic attack, in case the boys aren't with you. She will comfort you, and send someone else to get one of the boys if needed."

"I like that, Thank you!"

I headed down the hall back to the elevator. And once reaching the 24th floor I headed down the hall to my dance studio. When I entered Si-woo said

"You two can take some time to get to know each other so it's not too awkward."

I then detoured to the woman who was sitting on the couch and said

"Hi, Are you Cherry?"

"Hi, Yes I am. And you must be Iris."

"Yes I am, so what's some stuff I should know about you?" I said while sitting next to her

"Well my name is Cherry, I'm from Houston, Texas, and I'm 20 years old."

"You're from Texas too! That's so cool!"

Si Woo then interrupted us telling me I needed to get to work. So I waved goodbye and got to warming up. I then started practicing Blood, Sweat and Tears, Fire, and finally, we worked on black pinks whistle.

As we were Practicing the Fire alarm went off. It was loud. I couldn't take it. I put my

hands over my ears, sunk to the ground, and started crying. It was too much. It turned off 10 seconds later, but that was enough. I was overloaded, panicked, and scared. Not a good combination. There was soon an announcement letting us know It was a false alarm. My eyes were screwed shut. I felt Cherry holding to my chest. She was saying something but i couldn't hear her. I open my eyes to look at her and I see Si Woo run out of the room. I can't breathe. I'm shaking uncontrollably. My hands are pressed as hard as they can against my head. I can't breathe. I think I'm going to pass out.

Jimin's point of view

I'm on my way to my dance studio when I see Si Woo Hyung running towards me. He stops in front of me panting and says six words which make me run

"Iris needs help she's not okay"

I run. I will my legs to move faster when I reach the door and open it to see Iris with tears streaming down her face and some girl holding her.

I walk over to her and grab her shoulders letting her know I'm there before telling the other girl

"Go to her backpack and find the bottle of green pills, she needs to take one, so also grab a water bottle."

The girl does as I say and once I have the pill, I attempt to get Iris to take the medication, but she's still too upset and panicked to take it. So I put it to the side and work on getting her calmed down.

Iris' Point of view

I can't hear anything other than the ringing in my ears. I can't feel anything either other than Cherry. I can't feel the floor. I can't breathe. I want this to end. I want my boys. I then feel someone else grab my shoulders, and open my eyes to see Jimin, he says something but I can't hear him. He then tries to get me to take my medication, but I'm coughing too much from lack of air, and crying to be able to take it. He sets it aside before bringing me into his lap. I'm starting to hear him. He's counting. Trying to get me to breathe. I try. I attempt to breathe in and out with him, but I can't. I can breathe in for 4 seconds but I can't seem to lengthen the time I'm breathing out for. He then tells someone to get Yoongi. I can feel the floor beneath me. I can feel Jimin. I can hear everything around me. It's too much. I feel like I can hear the air moving, feel the airbrushing my skin.

What seems like hours later Yoongi runs in. He sits on the other side of me, he moves me to where my back is to Jimin's chest. He then crosses my arms across my chest and instructs Jimin to hold me as tight as he can. He does. I then understand. Yoongi's trying to ground me, trying to bring me back to earth.

He then lays two backpacks on my legs weighing them down. He then put his hands on either side of my face and made me focus on him. My breathing was slowing down, my hearing was returning to normal, not heightened. I was returning back to earth, I thought. In reality, I was shutting down.

"Iris, you need to stay awake okay? Stay with me, Iris. Stay with me." yoongi said

I tried to stay awake. I tried to keep my eyes from closing. But before I knew it everything went black.
