Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Love

Jeon Jungkook's POV

Are her comforting words the answer to what I have been stressed out lately?

I let her consoling words repeat in my mind and went to sleep.

—-

"Why are you still sleeping?" A faded noise kept nagging.

I opened my eyes as I saw Taehyung open the curtains to allow in some light.

"Let me sleep more it's our day off!" I exclaimed.

"Aren't you going to visit Heejin today? I thought you guys got pretty close. I mean Jimin already left to see her with the others."

"What when?" I got up off bed quickly.

"I didn't want to leave you alone so I waited for you to wake up but you just wouldn't." Taehyung groaned at me.

"Go take a bath and get ready plus wear something warm its cold today." He added.

——

When we reached her house I shifted my weight from one foot to another. Jimin opened the door, and I glanced around to meet eyes with Heejin.

She had her hair up in a messy bun and wore an oversized hoodie that gave me a familiar vibe I couldn't grasp. She looked back at me and smiled . Couldn't keep the eye contact so I quickly said hi to everyone and sat down.

Even though she should have been in pain, she kept smiling and had her usual friendly vibe.

"I know this is random but I really did see Eunjun push Heejin!" Haewoon suddenly exclaimed.

I oddly couldn't help my self but focus on how her expressions changed as she spoke, "She probably didn't mean it."

"She has always been jealous of you, you know that." Haewoon befuddled.

Heejin stayed quiet till Taehyung broke the awkwardness, "Do you all wanna play truth and dare?"

I couldn't focus the whole game as everyone played. Jimin who sat next to Heejin, kept making their own conversation as everyone played.

"I pick Jungkook turn truth or dare." I suddenly hear Haewoon's voice.

"Oh truth." I quickly swifted my vision away from Jimin.

"Do you have someone you like?"

"Not not really." I replied.

"What happened to that girl you met once and you were dying over for days huh?" Taehyung teased.

"I just thought she was cute." I quickly pleaded nervously.

I knew I was all over Lee Jieun for sure but I wasn't sure of my feelings at that moment.

I looked back at Heejin who was glancing at me till she instantly turned around.

——

After a short while Everyone slowly started leaving. Jimin offered to help and Taehyung had to meet up with an old friend so he apologized and left too.

At that point I strangely wanted to stay more. Reasons of why I would wanna stay filled my mind.

"Are you hungry?" she asks us suddenly.

"Yeah I actually am." I replied.

"Okay I will make some food."

"No I will make it, you're sick remember?" I cackled at her.

Jimin finished the dishes and looked back at heejin "I have to go now though but I will visit you tomorrow too, okay."

He suddenly approached Heejin and stretched both his hands out to what seemed like a hug. Heejin smiled and hugged him back. I couldn't stop gazing at them. Jimin is a natural flirt but does he like her?I thought to my self.

"Don't be too late home." He suddenly added. I nodded as he closed the door.

It was only me and Heejin left.

——

My cooking method usually involves picking up the phone and calling a take out restaurant while I wait for 30 minutes for delivery. I didn't even know what to expect when I decided to make something to eat.

I looked at the fridge and just gave up and searched for some ramen.

When I finished, I gave her a plate and sat down next to her. Realizing too late that we were too close as I brushed her arm accidentally. She didn't react and just started eating.

Does she have alot of guy friends? I again thought to my self.

She is a really friendly person so she probably has alot of friends.

"You don't know how to cook, huh?" She mocked.

"It tastes really good, you just don't want to admit it." I smirked back at her.

"Nope, my brother's definitely tastes better!"

"Well I bet it tastes better than yours!" I snatched her plate away next to me.

"Give it back" she befuddled.

"Nope go make your own if you don't like it!" I said as I took the plate and stretched my hand far away from her.

She stood up and tried grabbing the plate. Her legs reached in between mine and the side view of her face were just centimeters from my sight. Heejin suddenly lost balance trying to reach out. Her hands landed on my shoulder , till she gazed back at me.

My heartbeat was oddly out of control.
