LET BYGONE BE BYGONE

"Lucky girl rescued by Kenma"

"Kenma at the rescue"

"In his arms, who's the mystery girl?"

I shut my phone out of agitation, I was extremely infuriated by all those articles, the entire internet was flooded by these posts, with a picture and video of Kenma catching me in his arms before I hit the cold hard ground.

No wonder, Taehyung had been giving me the silent treatment. He would just shove past me, wouldn't reply to what I'm saying, he was basically, to all extents, ignoring me.

I sighed and gently but harshly threw the phone on the nightstand and sat on bed with my head in my hands.

It was a large room, well furnished, with a Cupboard, chest of drawers, sofa, and my bed, a fine wide bed covered with a silken counterpane. To think of it now, I like my room, I hadn't until now given due attention to its structure.

"I'm definitely gonna get fired now" I was so frustrated at this point. I didn't fall on purpose, I just wanted to give Tae the bracelet I bought for us. Shouldn't have worn those stilettos. Why'd I have to wear those damn inches high heels, but then again, they went so well with my outfit.

Oh! It hit me then, that all through these events I hadn't fulfilled my purpose for which I turned around for. I haven't given him the bracelet yet. I let out another heavy sigh, I'm so..

Irresponsible.

"It's okay," I heard footsteps approaching me. "You won't get fired." He rested his hands on my shoulder and I felt the bed sink with his weight, as he sat down.

"I know we haven't talked much since you got here, but I assure you," he took a deep breath and continued "all of us are making the best efforts to make you stay"

I looked up at him and said "But why, Kyo?" I gave him a dejected, crestfallen look.

"I don't know." He shrugged "Ever since you got here, all of us have been happy, there's something about you." He looked at my hands and took them in his, then faced up to look at me.

"You are someone who is persistently cheerful and optimistic, even when given cause not to be so. Like right now, I know that you will grieve for a while about all the news and the related but then I knew you would have come out of your door and cheered us all up despite being sad on the inside yourself." He squeezed my hand and smiled at me.

I commenced biting my lip and looked elsewhere. I was overwrought on hearing him say that. It felt good to be a person to bring bliss in their lives but I have a purpose for being here, to make them disband, and Every time any one of them appreciates or talks good about me, it reminds me of what I'm here for.

It reminds me that I'm not the angel they take me for, I'm doing the devil's job.

"I don't know Kyo" I turned to look at him "I don't feel like I'm worthy enough to be here. I think even if not fired I'd like to quit." I got up to leave the room.

"Wait hikari" he got up from the bed and rushed towards me and his act confounded me.

He embraced me, his arms all around me "Don't do that," he then broke the hug to look me in the eye.

"There are moments when troubles enter our lives and we can do nothing to avoid them. But they are there for a reason. Only when we have overcome them will we understand why they were there." My eyes were filled with tears, not of joy or sorrow, but of guilt.

"One of the most important things you can do on this earth is to let people know they are not alone." A tear trickled down my cheek and he lifted his hand to wipe it with the back of his hand.

Alone.

Kyo, honestly, I can't begin to explain how much of that is a massive part of my life.

I'm beginning to realise, how much I need you all in my life, you all make it worth living for.

I nodded at his words, and gave him a weak smile. "Thank you, I needed this." I wiped my tears and a smile worked it's way across my face into my eyes, A smile of joy and satisfaction lit up my hitherto sardonic face.

"Come on, now, let me help you with dinner" That pleased smile was on his lips again and his eyes held a glint of humor.

"I hope I didn't seduce you this time." he winked and I stared. He knew?

Does Taehyung know about that? That wasn't volatile, it wasn't willful, it just happens in the spur of the moment, at times, when Kyo looks at me and smirks, when his hand slightly brushes mine.

"I-I, uh..."

"Just kidding, gee, c'mon" he laughed it off and walked out the room.

"Put those legs to work, Hikari, I'm waiting out here." I shake my head out of my thoughts, it must've been natural, I mean, he's a boy, I'm a girl. I've never done it before, anyways.

But Tae is the only one I have such feelings for.

No one else holds the position he does in my life.

No one else compares to him.

He stands alone.
