She was keep looking at the clock as it was already midnight and Jungkook, her roommate hasn't return yet. She was walking back and forward waiting impatiently for the door to open..it was normal for him to be late cuz he often stays outside the apartment even without any work.. Just then she heard the door knob sound indicating he's back home.
She quickly pretended to read a book so that he won't think she was actually waiting for him.. "You're not asleep yet.. that means you're waiting for me?" He smirked internally looking at her panicking expression.."No wayy.. i got many important things to do other than waiting for a playboy like you" He just shrugged it off "Well you can't even lie properly" Before she could say anything he already went inside his room. She sighs in relief and also went back to her room..
*a year back*
It all started one year ago. Yn happily entered her apartment room and had made her mind to have a fresh start of her new journey as a university student. Unfortunately she didn't got any hostel rooms to stay as all of them were filled. So she had to live in a nearby apartment and she was quite happy with it.
"So did you liked the room? it's the only room left you're lucky enough to get it" The lady owner said while Yn thanked her. "Yupp it's pretty good..but what about the roommate you talked about?" The lady was a bit hesitant to say "Actually it's a student studying in the same university as you" Yn nodded "Okay that's fine we can help each other in studies too"..."But" Yn furrowed her eyebrows "But?? what? is there something else?" The lady said "Actually it's a boy BUT don't worry he's my sister's son and i know him well he's a nice boy..and also as you both have separate rooms already so i don't think you'll have any problem? but still I'll ask for your consent"
Yn didn't wanted to share her apartment with a boy but she won't get any other apartment nearby and so she have to stay here as long as she doesn't find any other room to stay or a hostel room. "Umm.. okay I'll trust you but if he disturbs me then I'll complain for sure" "Don't worry he stays outside most of the time so you won't have any problems" And after agreeing she finally decided to stay here.
She tidied up her room and kept her belongings with discipline in their respective places..she waa tired by now and it was already night. She ordered food online and heard the bell ring thinking it's the delivery boy she opened the door. She looked at him but he didn't have any box and he was just looking at her surprised "Why are you standing there like that where's my delivery?" He raised his eyebrows "Delivery..?...well I Don't mind being your delivery boy but what are you doing inside my apartment?" She frowned..and then gets it "Ohh so you're my roommate! I'm so sorry please come inside" He comes inside and he started asking her questions "for a minute i thought i hallucinated of a girl then i thought i don't remember dating any girls recently? Anyways...welcome home sweetie what's your name?" He was weird she could sense but she just shrugged it off thinking it doesn't matter as long as he behaves "I'm lee Yn.. we study in the same university the landlady told me that" He nods "hii myself Jungkook..or kook for you? whatever you prefer" He says that with a sly smile making her roll her eyes.
"Jungkook see as we're roommates now so there are some rules i want you to follow" he sat on the couch and indicated her to continue "first we'll mind our own business and not interfere in it, second we'll cook turn wise, third don't ever enter in my room, fourth you won't call me with these cheesy names just call me Yn, fifth we will keep a distance-" he stood up from the couch "woahh woahh calm down babe.. i got it..in simple words you want me to fuck off" She widened her eyes "What no?!! I just..wanted to clarify that we won't interfere in our lives and live according to ourselves..also maintain a distance"
He stepped forward and stopped some inches away from her making her stunned..leaning closer which made her back off "Is this distance enough?" She backed off gasping while he giggled looking at her red face "chill i was joking and also don't worry I'm not interested in nerds.. enjoy your life boringly like you wish! Goodnight bab- oops slip of tongue.. i mean Yn" He went to his room and she stood there processing did he just insulted her as a nerd...
.....
Few days later at her university...
Yn was writing some notes in the break period and her new friend Bella was scrolling through her phone then out of the blue both of them heard choas and it was none other than the popular playboy Jungkook entering inside the class while girls going crazy over him... "What is even so special about him.. " Yn said in annoyance "It's charms babes.. look at him he got the looks the style and a perfect body only if he wasn't a playboy i would've hit on him too.. but I'm happy with my love Yeonjun" Yn gave her a bombastic side eye "you and your delusional ass.. head over heels for a kpop idol" Bella glared at her "ouchh Don't hurt my intentions like that.." Yn shook her head in disbelief and she accidentally made eye contact with Jungkook who was also coincidentally looking at her...Yn broke it nervously and continues her work... "Don't you feel bored without any crush? i mean studying is fine but there must be a person that you can think of when you're stressed out and just thinking about him makes you happy..atleast any idols?" Yn shook her head "I already told you this is just waste of time nothing else" Bella asked in disbelief "so what you do when you're bored?" "of course she studies day and night living a dull life"
Out of nowhere Jungkook replied who was standing beside their seats. "Excuse me.. she didn't ask you for answer" Yn said then Jungkook whispered "I know you better than yourself babe" and he leaves them alone after Leaving yn dumbfounded. "Yo what did he murmured? *gasppp* Omg Yn don't tell me he likes you???" Yn glared at her "wtf Noo!!! neverr!! that won't happen in this lifetime"
....
*Present time*
Yn kept it a secret and also told Jungkook not to tell anyone that they live together she doesn't want any unnecessary drama...also She started to feel something towards him as time passed by... he would come home late and she thought he goes clubbing or dating that makes him late but recently she got to know he actually works part time job to pay his rent...she doesn't know the actual reason as he's a born rich son and she never wanted to know about it...
But in many cases she fell for him like one time she got crazy period cramps and couldn't move at all.. she was lying on the couch when he brought her chocolates and warm water to drink when she asked why he was doing that he lied saying it was cold and doesn't want her to be ill or he'll get cold too. And one time when he pretended to be her boyfriend when a boy was annoying her.. and especially his sweet talks that can melt anyone but still she plays cool pretending it doesn't effect her at all.. but inside she feels butterflies everytime.
....
Next morning it was weekend so both of them slept till late until Yn woke up and made breakfast...he was still not awake maybe he's tired from his work. She knocked at his door he was still not responding..Then she called him thinking he'll wake up at the sound still of no use. She got tense if something happened to him.. she peeked through the door and he was stil laying on the bed but sweating and seems like he was having nightmare.. She went near and tried to wake him up just when she realized he had high fever. "Jungkook, wake up.. eat some medicine your forehead is burning in fever!" He opened his eyes but still tired...she got a wet cloth and puts it in his forehead..She mixed the tablet in water and made him drink it hoping he'll feel better she waited for some time.. She sat beside him for hours until she also fell asleep...
Some minutes later he woke up and found Yn sleeping with her head resting in the bed while she was sitting on the floor. "Yn.. Yn!" She woke up and immediately checks his temperature it was normal but still burning a little.. "You're still not recovered wait I'll make soup for you" He held her hand before she could go away "did you really sat beside me the whole day without eating and studying?" She looks at him in disbelief "Are you really concerned more about that and not for yourself? Do you have any idea how much i was worried about-" She stopped when she was oversharing..."So you were indeed worried about me!" He gave a weak smile "You should rest more I'll bring you something to eat" Then he again interrupted "But don't starve yourself.... you should eat too" She nodded before going out.
....
It has been a week since that fever incident and everything was going well until they had their prom party. Bella insisted Yn a lot to attend the party as it's one in lifetime but She refused as she didn't have any partner and no one asked her out.. being a little hurt she wanted to stay home than to feel lonely in the party.
She was lost in her thoughts then someone knocked in her door that must be Jungkook she sighed and opened it. "O my godddd you're not ready yet?? you want to be late in the first prom?" "Jungkook please not today...let me just rest I'm not feeling well...you go and have fun" She was about the close the door then he said "Fine then ig... now i have to stay home too because my partner isn't attending it" She widened her eyes not believing what he just said "D-don't joke around like this..." But he leaned against the door "It won't be fun without teasing you.. come on let's go you seriously want to rest today?? The whole uni is going there...gooo and get ready quickly! And moreover...no one asked me out so...i have to choose you...lucky you..and you're still rejecting this huge offer" She smiled internally hearing his words.. there's no way the popular boy won't get asked out in this prom party.. he was clearly lying. "Ufff!! finee I'll go otherwise i won't get this golden chance to be with the popular boy of our uni" She said it sarcastically before closing the door and get ready while he chuckled "I'm giving you 20mins!! get ready quickly!"
....
They reached the party and everyone were with their respective partners... but everyone's jaw dropped seeing Jungkook with Yn as no one expected him to reject everyone's offer to be together with the nerd. But more importantly everyone were shocked to see Yn without her glasses and wearing fancy dress...they were looking like the perfect couple together which made the girls jealous. Bella went towards them "Omg Yn!! you're so evil!!! Not agreeing to come with me and then surprising everyone with this grand entrance with Jungkook?! bitch when did you two got close!!" She was excited to hear the tea from Yn meanwhile yn trying to calm down her and explaining it's nothing like they think. His friends were also teasing him that he finally revealed his secret crush as he told them he'll come with his crush in this prom. Before Yn could explain to bella his friends came and pushed Jungkook and Yn towards the dance floor. As the lights were dim and the slow music started they both moved in sync along with it... so far they were enjoying each others company.
"Why did you lied that you weren't asked out by anyone..clearly every girl is throwing daggers at me by their eyes" He chuckled "Cuz no one is like you" She tried not to blush but failed "so cheesy!" they smiled looking at each other and continued dancing...
Soon the party was coming to an end they were all going to click a photo and Yn looking at Jungkook started walking towards his direction to stand beside him but some girl already was fast enough to hold that place.. She looked down and came back in her place.. Then everyone looked up to the camera just then Yn feels a hand wrapping around her waist securely and she flinched "It's me pretty lady" Jungkook said making Yn relieve "Say cheese!!" And everyone smiles looking at the camera.
....
Yn and Jungkook returned home and everything went well at the party...Yn enjoyed a lot "Thank you Jungkook....for making me your partner..or else I'd have miss out so much fun.. " She smiles looking at him but he smirked stepping forward "Just a thanks?" She was confused "then what do you want..?" he started walking forward until she was backing off "maybe... a kiss..?" She looked down not daring to meet his gaze...he noticed her flustered face and decided to stop teasing "Just kidding....go and get rest well" he smiles at her and about to go but she held his collar and connected their lips which shocked him...She pulled out and was shocked with herself..."oh gosh I'm... so.. sorry i don't..know what happen-" Before she could say anything he pressed his lips against her again and kissed her passionately. Gripping her waist tightly he deepens it more while she kissed him back with the same pace.
After a min they pulled out and looked at each other "I love you" they both said together which made Yn shook as she didn't expected it but soon realized something..."But Jungkook...i don't wanna get fooled by a stupid prank please don't joke around-" "It's not a prank Yn it's true... i love you..you love me what's the problem?" She shook her head with teary eyes"No... you'll leave me after you're bored like every other girls..." He took a deep breath and cupped her cheeks "It's not like that Yn... i maybe flirtous, make joke around..chill but I'm not a playboy.. it's just a rumor..you can ask my friends they have been with me from school years and the landlady who's my aunt i never break someone's heart for fun...it's the first time I'm actually liking someone..i came home late not because i was clubbing or roaming around with girls but i was doing jobs because i don't to stay with my toxic family...they maybe rich but still poor by heart...but I'm not that cheap minded.. Please trust me I'll keep you happy forever.."
Yn heard his side of story and thought to believe him rather than some special students "Okayy I'm trusting you but once i find you flirting with anyone else then you're dead Mr. Jeon" He giggles and hugged her tightly "Sure Mrs. Jeon"
And he kept his words of being a responsible man and they were happy in their relationship where sometimes they did fight but solved it out quick as they can't leave without each other.
