chapter 43: Sorry
I couldn't sleep thinking about what Jungkook did after the argument. I wondered if he fought Yoongi. I wonder if he lost. I wonder if someone was killed. No. That wouldn't happen.
I heard the door slam downstairs. I immediately got up and ran down the stairs.
As I expected Jungkook had come home.
"What happened?" I asked.
He walked pass me. "Nothing April."
I didn't believe him. He didn't go somewhere to drive in circles mad like that. I grabbed his arm.
He slowly turned around "Don't touch me." He said plainly.
I looked at him shocked. I couldn't believe he said that. He was treating me how I treated him earlier. Huh. It did really hurt.
He walked to Rapmonster's room and closed the door.
He just blew me off completely. I needed to know what happened. It would be the difference if I got to sleep or not.
I walked over to Rapmonster's room and listened.
"I got your ring and hospital money back."
There was a silence.
"Thanks Jungkook. But how?"
"You don't need to worry about it" Jungkook said.
He walked out of the room surprised to see me obviously listening.
He brushed past me.
"Fine Jungkook, I'll talk. But you have to tell me what happened to Yoongi."
"Not interested." He said closing his door.
I sighed. I understand I pissed him off earlier but he didn't have to be such a jerk.
I opened his door surprised he didn't lock it. He was talking no matter what. I guess that's how he felt earlier.
"I'm sorry Jungkook."
He looked up "Now your sorry? For what?"
I rolled my eyes. "You know what for. I shouldn't have treated you the way I did. I guess it was that newspaper that started it."
Jungkook looked up mad "It was your misunderstanding that started it. It had nothing to do with me."
I sighed. He was right. But it's not like I was going to tell him that. "What happened to Yoongi?"
He didn't answer me for a while. I was starting to get irritated.
He finally looked up and said "I knew if I killed Yoongi I was going to get killed by his gang. So I called the cops and told them Yoongi was the criminal who killed Elizabeth. When I pulled the trigger they got there quicker than I expected. I didn't kill Yoongi, but I shot him in the face. Bad aim. Basically, Yoongi and his gang is in jail. "
I smiled. "That's amazing! Thank you!"
He didn't react. I could tell he was upset I've been treating him harshly just because of that newspaper. Who knew you kissed people to say hi. I didn't.
"You should go to bed." He said plainly. It was obvious he wanted me to leave.
I stood there for a couple seconds hoping he would say something, anything. But he didn't. He laid down on his bed with his back facing me.
I sighed. I chose this. I chose to push him away. This was my fault.
I walked out of his room. I'd be able to sleep for the first night since he left. I was safer Yoongi was behind bars. Even though Peru wasn't that necessary anymore, it still was an option. Money wasn't so bad off since Alex will be working as well. And I could stay here with Devon.
I walked to my room intending to get some sleep for the first night.
I didn't wake up to the smell of breakfast. I didn't wake up to commotion. Because of these two reasons I knew I had slept in. I was late for school. And we were having a field trip to the Aquarium.
I glanced at my phone. The alarm was going off but no noise was coming from it. I shot up. It was 10:42!! I couldn't believe no one woke me up.
Someone knocked at my door.
"Come in." I said frustrated.
Jungkook came through the door.
"Jungkook, why didn't anyone wake me up?! I'm late!"
He sighed. "I told them not to."
I looked at him dumbfounded.
"I set your alarm on silent."
"Why?!" I yelled.
"You haven't slept in days. It's okay to catch up on some hours of sleep."
I rolled my eyes "you can't catch up on lost hours of sleep, just like you can't catch up on lost minutes in time."
He stood there ignoring my comment.
I sighed. "Thanks for looking out for me Jungkook. I'll call Devon to give me a ride."
Jungkook's face saddened. "Why do you think I'm here?"
I nodded "Thanks for trying to help me, but I'm fine." I said dialing Devon's number. I rushed out and got changed. I'd have to shower when I got home.
I saw Devon's car pull up a minute later and I headed to the door.
Jungkook grabbed my arm. "I'll drive you." He said while pulling me along towards his car.
I was surprised but I didn't say anything. He opened the door indicating for me to sit and I did. He buckled me in even though I could've done it myself.
I saw Devon jump out of his car towards my direction.
"Jungkook! What the heck do you think you are doing with my girlfriend?! Get out and-"
Jungkook started driving away. I couldn't believe he just drove off cutting him off like that.
"Jungkook, I could've gone with Devon." I said.
"I know. I don't want you to be with Devon." He said.
I was taken back for a couple seconds. I don't know if he still talking in context.
Devon was following us.
We pulled up to the huge Aquarium and I got out of the car with my things . "Thanks." I said quietly, walking away.
