-Manoban Family trip-
. Day 1 .
~After School

"Baby, you have your toothbrush and hair comb? How about your swim trunks just in case? And your-" I chuckle, "Eomma, I have everything." I tell her for the hundredth time since I've put my luggage together. "I'm just making sure, I want you to be ready." She says. "Why are you nervous Eomma? I'm the one that's going to have to impress her parents the whole time that I'm there." I say.

"I'm nervous for you!" She exclaims. I chuckle and grab my guitar, I'm excited because I've learned a new song just for Lalisa. "Do you need money? Oh!" She gets closer to me and I'm not sure if I should be concerned or not. "Do you need condoms?" I freeze up. "Eomma.." I just whisper, a bit scared. "Just in case! You never know!" She says. "No, I know." I say. "Okay, but I don't want to be a grandma already." I slowly look away from her and out to the distance. Out to the wall in the living room at a hole that my mother made when she removed a nail for a picture she didn't want there anymore.

I wish I was in that hole.

Oh my gosh, someone help me. "Jungkookie!" Her voice is an echo in my head. I finally look at her. "So you don't need the condoms.", "Eomma." I whine. "Okay okay, I trust you." She smiles. I walk past her and set my things next to the door as we wait for Lalisa to come and get me. "What's wrong honey? I'm just trying to be ready for the funny feelings.", "Eomma." I cry. "Okay! I'm done." I let out a breath. "I'm just trying to distract myself of the fact that I'm going to miss you a lot." She frowns.

"It's only three days Eomma, I'll be back." I tell her. "You're not leaving because you're being adopted by them?" I frown and walk up to her. "Never Eomma." I tell her. "Are you trying to get me ready if you leave to California?" She asks. I stare at her. "Of course not." I tell her, I pull her into my arms and hug her. There's then a knock at the door. I set a kiss on her head and she grabs my face and kisses me all over, knowing very well that Lalisa is at the door, ready to take me away from her.

She then unlocks the door as she looks at me and rubs my cheek with her thumb. "Good afternoon." Lalisa greets. She looks cute with what she's wearing. She's wearing a floral dress, her hair up in a ponytail just the way I like. I smile at her. "Good afternoon my sweet girl, Jungkook is very excited." She speaks up for me. She smiles wide, "I am too." She says. "So we have your ticket ready and we will be leaving for the plane in two hours but my parents wanted to take you out for dinner."

"That's so sweet of your parents, thank you." My mother says. I grab my things and prepare for my mother to take a while saying goodbye to me. "Aaaaaaaawwwwwee!!! Jungkook I'm going to miss you so so so much!" She cries as I expect. "Oh!! Lalisa, please come over for dinner the night after you come back." She nods quickly. "My parents will be busy, so I think I can come." She says. My mother then grabs my face again and kisses me all over. "Okay, Eomma. I have to go." I tell her. "Oh right, bye my lovely boy that I adore so much. The fruit of my womb!" She yells.

I hear Lalisa chuckle. "Bye Eomma." I say as I'm about to leave. "Jungkook! Where is my kiss? How am I supposed to function without a kiss from my lovely son?" I kiss her cheek and I grab Lalisa's hand and drag her to the car. "Bye!" My mother exclaims. Lalisa's father gets out of the car and helps me load my stuff into the trunk. "Goodbye Misun!" He yells back. He then looks at me, "Good afternoon Jungkook." He says with a smile, I instantly bow to him. "Good afternoon sir." I tell him.

We all get into the car and I instantly greet Lalisa's mother. "We're excited to have you Jungkook.", "Excited to be here." I say as I set my guitar between my legs. We all buckle in and I look at Lalisa. She grabs my hand and she smiles as I hold her hand back. "You brought your guitar." She says. I nod quickly. "I can't wait to hear you sing again." She says. It's a lengthy ride to wherever they decided to take me to dinner. Lalisa and I end up playing thumb wars and a few other kiddy games.

**

"I'm glad you like it." I tell him. He nods and eats up the food on his plate. "You have quite the appetite." My father tells him. Jungkook nods, "Yes sir, I eat a lot.", "He's a growing boy." My mother tells my father who nods in agreement. "I'm happy that you like the food of my country." My father says. "I like trying all foods." Jungkook says making my parents smile even bigger. "That's great, we need a boy who has a good pallet to date our daughter." I blush. "Yes, you will be tasting much more this weekend." My mother says.

I stay quiet and eat the rest of my plate. Luckily, the restaurant my parents picked is near the airport. We get going and everything is on schedule, we get on our plane and it's going to be a five to six hour flight. So we'll be getting there pretty late. My parents got Jungkook and I a seat next to each other and they got their seats on the other side of the plane. Because they supposedly didn't want to bug us. "Have you ever been on a plane?" I ask him as we are instructed to put on our seatbelts. "No." He says.

"Do you like rides?" I ask him. He nods quickly, "Yes, I love them." I grab his hand, "Then you'll be fine." I tell him, and as we lift off the ground and into the air. The sign that says that can remove our seat belts, lights up. I look at him and he looks at me, "Wow, we're in the sky." He says. I nod and smile. He turns on his phone, "We'll be going to our townhouse, it's really nice.. you'll be sleeping in the room downstairs." I tell him. "I respect that." He says.

The way he looks at me, it makes my heart race. "You're just the best." I tell him. I then remember. "Look." I sit up and pull out a deck of playing cards. He smiles. "What do you usually do on long rides like this?" He asks. "I listen to music and I watch the lame movies that they play here." I tell him. "Can I tell you something?" He asks. I nod as I take the cards from the box and wait for him to say it. I notice that he looks nervous. "What's wrong?" I ask him.

"I know that we never talk about this stuff, but my mother wanted to give me condoms." He whispers. I freeze. "What?" I ask. "I know, it was really inappropriate of her to do that.", "I'm just really surprised." I blush. "I know, I was a bit shocked that she even suggested it." He says. My mouth goes dry and I think about all those times that Chaeyoung would tell me about it because I was curious after the first time we talked about it.

"I would be too." I chuckle nervously. Honestly, my parents haven't even suggested things like that, probably because they expect me not to do things like that. I shouldn't be thinking about.. but now I am. Soooo..

He just grins and looks down at the playing card and shuffled them. I stare at him for a while. Has he had any thoughts of doing stuff like that? Knowing him, no. All he thinks about is clean stuff like soap and rainbows. And ever since Chaeyoung tainted my brain, I wonder a lot about the boy species. "Have you played this before?" He asks. I look down at the little lap table he pulled out from the other people's chair in front of us.

He's set up the game for speed, I played it a lot in America with my American friends. "Oh yes, I'm a pro at it." He laughs. "We'll see about that." He says. I get my cards ready, and he counts. "Three, two, one!" And we're slapping cards down and I'm already ahead of him. "Speed." I say as I slap down my last card. He looks at me. "Gosh, you're good." I laugh. "I told you." I say. "When did you learn to play? In America?" He asks. I nod.

"I really like that there's still so much I have to learn about you." He says as he looks at me. I smile, "Same about you, Jungkook." He grins and leans into me, "You know.." he whispers. I lean into him too. "I didn't get my kiss." He says making me blush. "You're a loser, so you don't get one." I say. He gasps. "What?" He laughs. "You have to beat me at Speed to get a kiss." I tell him. "Okay." He says grabbing all the cards and shuffling them again.

I chuckle as I watch his face as he concentrates so hard on shuffling cards. He sets up the game and hands me my cards. "Three, two, one." He says. I laugh when I keep beating and he gets frustrated. "It's just a kiss." I tease him. "Yeah, but it's your kiss." My face heats up. I then cut him some slack, and even still I beat him. "You just suck at this game." I tell him. "Uh! I'm good at everything." He says. "I guess not against me." He squints his eyes. "Are you cheating? Like when we went to the carnival and you made me miss my shot."

I start to laugh, "No, maybe you just don't know how to play." He gasps. "I do too know how to play." He says. "Well, I keep beating you so you obviously don't know how to." I laugh. "I'm going to win this next game." He says.

**

"Okay, please tell me that you're going hard and you're going to go easy on me now." She laughs at me, covering her mouth as she laughs harder and harder. I find myself laughing, "L-Lalisa, p-please." I laugh through my words. I hold her wrists as I lean my face into her. "Just let me win one game." I plead. She throws her head back and laughs even harder. "Lalisaaaa." I whine. With my hands still holding her wrists she sets her hands on my face.

"You cutie, just admit that you've met your match." She says. "No." I whine as I pull her back with my hands. "Admit it." She says. "No." I repeat. "Fine, then you're just a loser." She tells me as she chuckles. I gasp. I turn my head away from her and cross my arms over my chest, offended. "Jungkook, no." She whines. "I'm just a loser." I say. "No no." She laughs. "Jungkook." She says. I look up at the ceiling of the plane. "Ah? What?" I then feel her grab my face and and makes me look in her direction.

I shut my eyes and scrunch my nose. She then kisses my cheek. I open one eye and she laughs when I shut it quickly. She then kisses my forehead. I then grab her face and connect our lips and she laughs against my skin. I gently let go of her. "Was that so hard?" I ask. "But you didn't earn it." She tells me. "Mm?" I wiggle my eyebrows. She laughs. "You didn't earn it." I click my tongue in a pout. "You're no fun, I just wanted a kiss." I tell her. "No." She says. "Well, too bad. I already stole it.. so I win." She shakes her head.

"Nope, you don't win anything." She laughs. "You kissed me on my cheek and forehead, I win." She smiles and looks down at the cards in her hands. I let out a breath and smile as I think about the huge surprise that I have for her at the end of this weekend. We only play for a couple minutes and I get bored with the game, so we decide to just watch one of the movies they have on a playlist. We end up watching some zombie movie, might have been Train to Busan. But, I don't know. I got bored with it too. "I should have bought more games." She tells me.

"It's okay, haha, as long as I'm here with you. I'm not as bored." She smiles.

•hours later•

"That was a long ride but it's so beautiful here." I tell her. "Oh! I'm so happy that you think so. I really think that it's amazing that you would find my country beautiful." Lalisa's father tells me as he drives the rental car from the airport to the house. "Oh, Jungkook-dear.. has Lalisa told you about the sleeping arrangements?" Her mother asks. "Yes, I'll be sleeping in the downstairs guest room." I say. "It's absolutely nice, I promise. After the house was redecorated, that is one of the rooms I tried my hardest on." She explains to me.

"I'm excited to see it." I say. "Honey, your mother and I will be running some errands like returning this rental car, getting food for the house and maybe even getting take out. Would you just want to stay home and show Jungkook around?" At such a late hour? "Yes, I don't want to fall asleep on the ride there, and I won't have the patience for the errands." Her parents chuckle. "Of course you are." Her mother says. "Very well then, we'll call when we order food so you can tell us what you want." Her father says.

The house was about an hour from the airport. When we get to the house, my breath is taken away. Their house is so nice. "We've spent years saving up for this beautiful house." Her father explains. "It's amazing." I tell him. The sun had set a few hours ago and the sky was completely dark, it makes the house even more beautiful as the lights made it glow, it's very appealing to the eyes. Her father pulls into the driveway and we all get out of the car.

"It feels so so nice to be standing on my land." Her mother says. There's a nice breeze that rolls past us, a really warm but welcoming breeze. I grab my bag and even help Lalisa with hers. We all follow Lalisa's father up to the house. He unlocks the door and it's even more beautiful than the outside. I'm escorted by her father to the third floor of the house, which is downstairs, to my room. "Now, you'll have to go upstairs if you need to shower, and it will be upstairs.", "Thank you Sir." I bow to him and set my things next to the bed.

"You know kid, I trust you with my daughter. You wouldn't go against my trust, would you?" He asks. I'm not very sure where he's going at here, but I will always respect his trust. "Of course sir, I would never disrespect you. I'm in your house as your guest." A grin slowly peeks out from the corners of his lips, and I start to get what he was hinting at here. The exact topic that my mother brought up this morning before I left. "Funny feelings" she had called it. "Hon, please don't tell me that you're scaring the sweet boy." I hear Mrs Manoban's voice from upstairs.

"Of course not." He smiles and gives me a head signal to head back upstairs. We are then in front of Lalisa and her mother. "Okay, well we should go right now so we can make it back before midnight." She suggests. "Okay, let's go then." And they're out the door. "Behave." Mrs Manoban says as she looks at us. "We will!" Lalisa says back, and they're off. Lalisa and I alone. Wow, I think my mouth just got dry. She closes the door and turns to me. "Hope my pops didn't scare you, he's just ridiculous." She teases. "Of course not." I say to her.

She then grabs my hand and leads me to a nice living room. "Let's just relax." She suggests. "Okay." I say a bit nervous. She pulls me on the couch with her and flips on the tv, it's all in Thai. Of course I can't understand. I lean back into the couch and kick off my shoes and I feel her lay right next to me. "You know, Chae texted me on the way over here." She starts. "That Jimin did a prom proposal for her today." She looks at me with those batty eyelashes and smiles, giving me a hint that she wants to go to prom.

"Oh, yes. I think he told me about that." I say. "I heard it was really romantic and stuff like that." She carries it out. "I bet it was." I say bluntly. I look at the tv and from the side of my eye I see her eyebrows knit and her bottom lip is thrown out a bit. I look at her, "What's wrong baby? You tired?" Her face heats up to my pet name for her, surprisingly I've never called her this. I gasp and pull out my phone. I shoot my mother a call and get up to talk to her, leaving Lalisa on the couch alone.

**

I watch him walk away, and I'm disappointed. Does he not want to go to prom with me? He was extremely blunt about it, like he didn't care. Maybe he's just tired and will care more in the morning. It was a pretty long day, and he called me baby. My face heats up again. Still a lot of new things that has happened for us. I hear him, talking to his mother. He's telling her that we've made it to the house, he even apologizes about not calling her right away.

It's a long conversation as expected because his mother is telling him and asking him all these things, before he is able to come back to the couch with me. "Sorry about that, I meant to call my mother." He says. "It's okay." I whisper. When he lays down again I press myself against him. He looks at me with those eyes. I set my hand on his chest before I run it up to the back of his neck, I have his attention. My fingers slowly running into his hair and I press my lips against his.

I gently pull us in a position where he's the dominant, don't ask me why I like being submissive. I don't know.

He's gentle with me of course, he always is. He doesn't take the kiss any further than just kissing. He doesn't touch me in any way that tells me he wants something more from me. But I don't mind kissing him, this is what I wanted. At least some sort of affection that I know he doesn't mind. And whatever my father told him before they left, seems to be sticking in his head.

I just lay here, being showered in Jungkook kisses. My heart is about to explode and my stomach is now a butterfly meadow. His lips slowly pulling mine, hypnotizing me. My stomach turning every time he turns his head to continue to kiss me, this session may never end. Do I care? No. I then feel him smile, okay.. I jinxed it. "Why did you kiss me, Lalisa?" He asks. "Why not?" I reply with a question. But he's not satisfied with it, and when I lean forward he leans away for a better answer. I chuckle and open my eyes, our gazes instantly connecting.

"I like kissing you.." I whisper. He sets his forehead on mine. He lets out a breath and smiles again. "Gosh.. I love you." He whispers. My heart flutters and I smile to myself, I love hearing him say it.

We don't stay on the couch for long, I show him around the house because he was curious and even showed him the back. The pool was nice and clean and the outside air was slowly getting hotter. Then he pulled out his guitar and played me a new song he learned, it's beautiful obviously. And the incident crosses my mind, but I tell myself that he'll find out tomorrow. He's still settling in, but what if we don't have a moment alone again? It's now or never Lalisa.

I know he senses something because he looks at me. "Lalisa? Is everything okay?" He asks me. I look at him and a wave of goosebumps invade my body. "I'm ready to tell you.." I say in a low voice. His eyes never look away from me and he leans forward and grabs my hand. I start to think back to the day. I know telling Jungkook would make me feel better. I've never told anyone, not even Chae.

•Many Years Ago•

BamBam and I are playing in my room, I'm playing with my Barbie dolls and he's playing with his action figures. "Why don't you make them kiss?" He asks. I look at my boy and girl doll, then I look at him weird. "Kiss? Ewe, that's gross. I don't want my dolls to kiss until they're older." I tell him. "Okay then, what does your girl doll look like without clothes?" I gasp. "I don't know, I don't undress my dolls." I tell him. "Okay then, what do you look like without your clothes?" My eyes widen and I shake my head.

"I'm not going to tell you." I say, dropping my dolls to the floor and wrapping my arms around myself for protection. "I don't want you to tell me, I want you to show me." My heart is pounding in my little chest and my hands start to get very clammy. "No." I cry, my eyes starting to water. I'm scared. The only person that's seen me without clothes on, is my mother. "Yes!" He yells at me. We aren't even old enough to see other people undress. We aren't even married. We're only eleven! My eyes shoot to the open door.

I start to get up but he's already at the door, locking it. My mouth goes dry. "Let me see, Lalisa. Just a peek." He demands. My body shakes as I'm terrified about what will happen next. "I'm going to tell my parents." I sob as tears build up in my eyes. He smiles, "No, you won't." He says. I nod quickly and hug my legs to my chest. "Yes! Yes I will!!" I exclaim. "No, because we're best friends." He walks over to me and I scoot away from him. "Best friends have secrets from adults, and best friends do fun things like this." I'm against the wall and I can't control my breathing because I'm crying too much.

"Don't you think this is fun?" He asks. "No! No! It's not fun!", "Yes it is." He corrects me. "Now why don't you come over here?" He asks as he squats in front of me. "Go away BamBam." I tell him. "No." He says. "GO AWAY!" I scream. "I said-" he grabs me by my ankles and drags me on my back in front of him. "No." He whispers to me as he sits on top of me. He then looks sad. "Lalisa, why are you crying?" He asks. "I don't want this BamBam. I want you to go away." I tell him. "Awe, best friend, that's not going to happen." My face flexes and I start to cry again. "Just a look, Lalisa. I'm only curious."

I hate what my mother made me wear today, she wanted me to look nice for BamBam's arrival. A yellow dress that had little red cherries all over it, the whole front of it is held together by snap on buttons. He purposely looks at me as he pulls off the first one. I shove his hand away and he pushes my hands back. "Oops." He says as he uses just one finger to pull them all apart. My little girl body exposed to him. I throw my head back and cry.

His hands everywhere as he violated me and I thought it would never end. Until he finally did and I ran to the bathroom to cry and fix my dress.

**

"I'm sorry." I wipe my eyes. "Why are you apologizing?" He asks me. I bite my lip and shake my head. "I don't know." I whimper. His eyebrows then knit. "They don't know the truth, do they?" I stare at him. "They do, but BamBam got therapy. I guess he wasn't able to get fixed after all." He then looks very angry. "I hate him." He says to me. I shake my head, "No." I say. "Yes, How could I not?" He asks. My eyes water and I shut my eyes.

**

"Come here." I whisper as I grab her hand and lead her back inside. I set my guitar on the floor and pull her on the couch with me. I sit down and pull her on my lap. She looks at me and I just hug her. "Lalisa, it took a lot of guts to tell me this.", "I..-", "Don't say anything baby.. you don't have to." She wipes her eyes and wraps her arms around my torso. I relax with her in my arms. I hate that he did that to her, and that he had the audacity to do it again.

**
. Day 2 .

I wake up the next morning, stretching. I look up at the ceiling and slowly smile, last night ended better than expected. When her parents finally arrived with groceries and food, we ate before they pulled out a Xbox connect and we played Just Dance. Surprisingly they were really good and it was like Lalisa was feeling a lot better. Then we all went to bed, the bed is so comfortable I just knocked out. I get out of bed and freshen up. Then I head into the kitchen where everyone is already up, Mrs Manoban already making breakfast.

"Good morning sleeping beauty." Mr Manoban says to me, making me laugh. "Good morning sir." I greet him. "Did you sleep well?" Mrs Manoban asks me. "Yes, the bed is so comfortable." She smiles wide, I know how serious she took her redecorating. "I knew that mattress would be perfect for that room." She tells me. I nod quickly, "It is." I take the seat across from Lalisa, she's looking down at a coloring book.

She has a Crayola box of 150 colors and she's coloring. "Lalisa does this almost every morning." Her father tells me. I smile and watch her color, she colors very nice. "She's always done it since she was little, I don't know if it's an anxiety thing.", "You're talking about me like I'm in a glass bubble and can't hear you." She says looking up. I greet her with a smile. "And I don't do it every morning." She blushes, but she goes back to coloring anyways. We have a amazing breakfast before her father tells us to all get ready to go to the beach.

I feel my heart pounding in my chest, she's going to see me without a shirt. I mean, I don't have to take off my shirt.. but why wouldn't I? It's the beach. It's supposed to be a relaxing time Jungkook, don't give yourself a damn hernia cause you can't decide if you should wear a shirt or not. I agree with myself that making my decision at the beach would be less stressful. I grab my guitar and and also a beach towel my mother told me to bring.

Then we head out, her parents are huge on snacks and eating. They might as well have brought the whole pantry, and I'm still full from breakfast. I find myself blushing as I sit in the back with Lalisa, she looks so cute. Her hair is up in a ponytail again, I love it when her hair is like that. Her bathing suit is pink with stripes, she wore a lace coverup. It didn't cover much, I could still see her bathing suit. I mean! Not that I'm staring at her bathing suit! Ugh! I'm not a naughty boy, I promise.

It takes a few hours to get to the beach, when we get there, it's packed. There are so many people out on the water. We somehow find parking and we unload the car, we find a perfect spot not too far from the water. I put in sunscreen, and Lalisa puts some on my back under my shirt. Which was really intimate for me, no one has ever touched my bare back like that. Only my mother.

Make a decision Jk, shirt or no shirt. Shirt or no shirt? Shirt or no shirt!? "When you both get hungry or thirsty there are snacks and waters right here." Her mother tells us. I nod, "Thank you." I say. Lalisa folds her lace cover up, places it on the towel in the sand and looks at me, "Let's go." I quickly nod and look around, basically every guy is shirtless. Just take it off! I take a deep breath and pull off my shirt. My light skin is gonna be pretty crispy after today.

**

My face heats up when he takes off his shirt, "Come on." I say, trying to find an excuse to look away from him so I can hide my face. Oh my goodness, I didn't expect that to be under his shirt. I bite my lip really hard as I try not to think too much about his abs. Dear Lord, please cleanse my soul. Something is happening to me and it's all Chaeyoung's fault. As I walk down to the water, I feel my body lift off the floor and I screech really loud as I try to hold onto him, but he's picking me up from behind. I hold onto his arms that are wrapped around me.

"JUNGKOOK!" I cry and he runs into the water with me, I try my best not to shiver so much. When he sets me down I turn to him and flirtatiously push him. "Why!?" I laugh. "Because." He smiles as he looks down at me, my face heats up.. a lot. His smile grows even bigger as he looks at me blush. When a wave comes I push him into it. He disappears under the water making me gasp, what have I done!? When he comes back up, he lunges at me and picks me up over his head and I hold onto him while I can't control my laughter, but it's a little hard to hold him because he's slippery.

I smile and look down at him. I quickly look over my shoulder to check if my parents are watching. My father is snoring in is beach chair and my mother is sun tanning her back. I quickly look back at him and hold his face, his arms secure me in place and I lower my head to kiss him. I only kiss him a couple of times, he tastes salty. "You taste like the ocean." I laugh. "Well whose fault is that?" He asks. "Yours." I laugh. "Mine!?" He asks. "Yes." I laugh harder as I wrap my legs around him so he doesn't toss me in the water. His face then goes flat and I stare at him weird. "You okay." He nods quickly and sets me down.

He walks into the water until it's at his belly button, not that I was looking at it, "Jungkook! What's wrong?" I call to him. "I just want to stand over here." He chuckles nervously. "Is he peeing in the water?" I ask myself.

**

She probably thinks I'm peeing in the water.

I'm so embarrassed, oh my gosh. Today is just not my day! I want to just dive in the water and not come back out. And to my luck, she comes out to be, "What happened? You got a cramp?" She asks. Yeah, let's call it that. "Yes." I say. "Want me to help you stretch it out?" She asks, stepping closer. You've helped enough. "N-No, it's fine." I try not to freak out when she gets even closer to me, will she notice!? "Are you peeing?" She whispers. I chuckle nervously, "No, n-no. I'm not.", "I'm going to get a drink of water, you want a water bottle." I shake my head viciously.

She looks at me confused, "O-Kay.." She whispers as she walks out of the water. I smack my face, "This is so embarrassing, very embarrassing. What am I going to do? It wasn't her fault." I whisper as I squat a little lower in the water, "UGH." I whine. "Go down, go down, go down." I whisper. "Why me? Why me? I don't understand." I watch her from afar as she drinks from her water bottle. I then quickly shake my head and turn away from her. Oh gosh, this needs to stop before she comes back.

I inhale and try to calm down and not think of anything my that has to do with Lalisa and her bathing suit. I feel my face heat up, I'm so very embarrassed. I'm able to take care of the problem, not physically though. "Jungkook." I hear next to me. Wow, she must be like a fricken mermaid, not too long ago she was on shore. Holy moly. I take a deep breath and look at her, "I'm okay now." I say. She smiles and nods, "Okay." She leans into me and my mouth goes dry, "Why is your face all pink, Jungkookie?" She whispers. "No reason." I say quickly, she chuckles and kisses my cheek before she splashed water at me. I gasp and splash water at her.

It was a huge wave of water compared to the one she splashed at me. "JUNGKOOK!" She screams! I laugh and use my long legs to run away from her in the water, completely forgetting about the embarrassing incident. When I turn she's nowhere to be see, I look around worried. I then feel a force fall on my back and luckily I don't drop us. Her arms lock around my neck and I laugh. "My hair is all wet!" She whines. "That's what the beach is for, kid.", "Kid!? I'm older than you by a few months, you're the kid." She laughs.

We mess around for a few hours more and her dad brings out a bogey board that Lalisa didn't know about. We take turns riding waves on it, I swallowed a lot of water. Gag. I surprisingly become extremely hungry and we eat most of the food that Lalisa's parents provided for today. I play a few songs on my guitar for them, then we went back to have fun in the water for a couple more minutes before we head back to their beautiful townhouse.

It's been about 30 minutes since Jungkook went in his room since his shower. I mean, not that I was like watching him or anything. A bit curious, I walk down to his room. I'm about to knock when I hear him talking to someone. "No, dude dude dude... I almost died. I thought she was going to notice." I hear Jungkook. "Stop laughing at me! I bet that's happened to you in front of Chae." He's quiet then clicks his tongue. "Bull." I hear a high pitched voice and I know it's Jimin.

"So, you mean to tell me.. that you've never accidentally-" He lets out a breath. "Whatever, it doesn't make me some sort of spaz. It's normal isn't it? She looked so damn cute in her bathing suit.. I guess I got too-" He clicks his tongue again. My face gets so so so so hot. I then start to think about today at the beach. When he got all nervous when I wrapped my legs around him and he put me down, went into the water until it was above his belly button. His face was all pink, and he was stuttering a lot. I gasp and cover my mouth with my hands, he got a- "I gotta go, she's probably wondering what's taking me so long. I'll text you tomorrow when it's done."

I run up the stairs and into the living room, oh my goodness. Jungkook isn't as innocent as I thought. My face heats up again and I touch my cheeks with my hands. "Lalisa." My heart stops and I gasp as I look up. He blushes, "Did I scare you?" I slowly nod. This makes everything a little awkward, he... he got a... he sits next to me and I straighten my back. "You feel clean?" I ask. He nods he leans back and looks at me, his damp hair covering his eyebrows.

"The beach was so much fun and I'm tired." He says. His cheeks a little pink from the sun today, he honestly looks so cute. "I hope it was fun, it was supposed to be a laid back weekend. I hope it wasn't boring." I tell him. He grins, "This is what I needed, it's very relaxing." He looks at me, I let out a breath slowly. I grin and lean against him. He smells amazing, "You brought your own soap?" I ask him. "Yes, my mother told me to." He turns his head and his nose is against my hair. He kisses my temple and I snuggle closer to him.

I forget about what I had discovered and just enjoy his warmth. "Lalisa, I love you.." He whispers in my ear for only me to hear, my tummy turning. I smile and I turn my head and look at him. "I love you too." I whisper. He just stares at me and I feel my face heat up. He chuckles and presses his head against mine. I slowly close my eyes and I tilt my head, pressing my lips against his. My heart feeling warm. This weekend was honestly the best, with him here it made everything complete. I slowly pull away from him and lay my head on his chest.

I wrap my arms around his torso, I feel my eyes grow heavy and I listen for his heart. I inhale slowly then exhale, I realize that our heart beats are the same. He wraps his arm around my back and his hands sets on my side. "Lalisa.." I hear my mother, but I don't want to move from this spot. I then hear her screeching. "Uuuuuuuu!! You both look so cute." I chuckle and turn my face into him, "AAAAAWE! Hon! Look! They're so cute!!" She calls for my father. "Nooooooooo." I whine and I hear Jungkook laughing.

"Oy oy oy!! Lalisa, peel yourself off this boy please." My father says and I laugh. "He's so warm though." I whine. Then I hear my father respond in a laugh. "Lalisa, our old friends invited us to go out with them. You two behave." I finally look at them and nod, "I always do." I tell them. They smile, "Of course, we know. Just reminding you." My mother tells me. "We'll see you later my loves." She adds. I stand up and give them both a hug and then they're gone. "Lay with me." I tell him. "I might fall asleep." He tells me. I lay down and I pull him along with me. "It's okay."

He lays next to me but his torso is on top of mine. He wraps his arms around me, and he lays his head on my shoulder. I wrap my arms around his neck and I close my eyes. No one would understand how unbelievably lucky I am to have Jungkook in my life, and how much I truly love him. We had both fallen asleep after a couple of minutes. It feels like hours pass and I have a nice peaceful dream, I can't quite remember it.. but I remember it being nice.

My eyes slowly flutter open and I see Jungkook's face and he's staring forward. Then I realize that he's walking up the stairs and is taking me to my room. I stare at his side profile while he takes me up. Then I see the tan walls of my room, and he lays me down on my bed, my eyes growing heavy. My eyes shut, I feel warmth on my forehead, and the covers are pulled over me. I fall back to sleep.

.Day 3.

I'm sweating bricks, "This is so adorable!" Her mother exclaims. I blush, "Babe, be quiet, Lalisa will hear." Her father says. "He's nervous, shh.", "You're the one who is being loud." I chuckle nervously at their conversation. My heart pounding, I grip my guitar tight.. waiting. "Thank you both for helping me on this.", "Of course!" Her mother exclaims. I then hear the doors upstairs opening and closing. A few minutes later, I hear her. "Jungkook?" I quickly stand up and I look at her parents who have huge smiles on their faces. I straighten my back and wait for her to see us. I take a breath before I start to play guitar. "Jung-" I smile when she's made it to the stairs and she sees me. Her face heats up and she smiles wide.

She comes downstairs covering her mouth as she walks up to me, "Jungkoooook." She whines. I chuckle, "Isn't this what you wanted?" I ask her. She nods, "But I look like a mess." She chuckles. "No, you don't." I tell her. She looks at her parents then back at me, I slowly stop playing my guitar. "You'll go to prom with me.. right?" I ask her. "Yes! I will!" She hugs me and I hug her back. "Yaaaaaaaaay!!!" Her parents cheer. I hug her close and quickly kiss her cheek. When she stops hugging me I turn and hand her a single rose. She can't stop smiling. "CUTE CUTE CUTE!!!!" Her mother exclaims. "Take a picture." Her father tells us. "Yes yes! Take a picture." Her mother adds.

"Here here, hold the sign." They hand us the sign and they take so many pictures. "I look like a mess! I just woke up." Lalisa covers her face in my shoulder. "You look cute baby! Don't say that." Her father tells her.

I open my eyes and look up at the ceiling in my room. I smile and hug the blankets around me. I stretch and get up, putting on my fluffy slippers. I head over to the bathroom and freshen up, brush my teeth and hair. I wash and cleanse my face, when I'm done I stand in the hallway, it's very quiet. "Jungkook?" I call. I fix my bangs and step out to the top of the stairs. I start to hear the sound of Jungkook playing his guitar, it sounds exactly like the song he sang to me months ago. It's the song he sang to me the night BamBam violated me.

I think that he must be playing for my parents, but when I get to the top of the stairs, I see him. "Jung-" I stop when I see Jungkook and my parents, Jungkook is dressed nice and my parents are holding a huge sign that says. "In a garden of Violets, you're my only Rose. PROM?" My parents have the biggest smile on their face.

I cover my mouth as I walk up to him, "Jungkoooook." I whine. He chuckles, "Isn't this what you wanted?" He asks. I nod quickly, "But I look like a mess." I chuckle. "No, you don't." He tells me. I look at my parents then back at him. "You'll go to prom with me.. right?" He asks as he pulls the strap on his guitar and he pulls the instrument onto his back, as if knowing what I'd say and what was to come. "Yes! I will!" I hug him and he hugs me back.

"Yaaaaaaaaay!!!" My parents cheer. He hugs me close and quickly kisses my cheek, making my cheeks heat up. When we stop hugging, he turns and hands me a single rose. I seriously can't stop smiling. "CUTE CUTE CUTE!!!!" My mother exclaims, making me blush a lot. "Take a picture." My father tells us. "Yes yes! Take a picture." My mother adds.

"Here here, hold the sign." They hand us the sign and they take so many pictures. "I look like a mess! I just woke up." I cover my face in his shoulder. "You look cute baby! Don't say that." My father tells me. I chuckle and face forward but cover my face with my hand. "Baby, no no. Here." My mother walks up to us and takes my hand off of my face. I hold the rose correctly and try not to blush so much. "Okay, perfect my love. Now let's eat breakfast and get going to the airport to get home." My father says. We nod and I roll up the sign. I hold the rose as I walk to the table and my mother is already making plates of food.

"Good thing you woke up the time you did, the food would have been cold if you would have woken up at a later time. Jungkookie would have been standing there for hours." My mother tells me. I place the rose on the table and I look at him. He smiles at me and my heart skips a beat. Wow, I'm going to the prom with the cutest guy in school.
