28| Surprise Roommates!

Today is our last day here, and we're currently packing up everything to leave.

After Jungkook and I woke up the day after *cough* all that happened, we just went back to normal.

We had our fling, and I'm sure that after this he'll be satisfied with the action he got even though we didn't have sex or anything. When we get back to university, I won't be surprised if he never calls or texts me again.

We're presenting our slideshow the day after classes start again, so after that he'll most likely leave me in the dust and everything will return back to normal.

"Hey Koo?" Paige comes up with her purple suitcase as we're putting away our things from the desk.

"Yeah?" He responds with a smile and closes up his sketchbook.

"Where do babies come from?" She asks innocently.

We laugh a little at the randomness and he looks over at me for guidance. "She's too young, tell her the stork."

"Your mom screwed a stork."

"Jungkook!" I hit him with a nearby notebook.

"Sorry," he clears his throat and gets down on his knees to be almost eye-level with the four year old. "You see, when two people love each other, they hug really hard and then they send a letter to a flock of birds. Only one of the storks can find the letter, though." He explains like it's a fairytale, "And so when that one stork gets the letter, it carries the requested baby all the way to the parents and then bam! Kids like you get here."

"Woah!" Her eyes get wide, "I wanna be a stork!" She gets up and rolls her little suitcase out quickly, "Mommy, I wanna be a stork when I grow up!"

"Nice save, Jeon." I say sarcastically and he smiles confidently.

"Why thank you very much." He plays into my sarcasm.

Once we have everything packed and ready to go, we say goodbye and thank everyone, giving lots of hugs.

"I like that guy." My uncle Tyler says after we hug, "I'm glad you brought him along."

"I can't wait until the next time we get to see you!" My aunt Jenna exclaims and squeezes Jungkook tightly.

"Everyone likes him apparently." I giggle and say bye to everyone else before we get into the car.

We start the long drive and I put my earbuds in, already exhausted from packing everything so early in the morning.

Many long hours later and we're back on campus. I take all of my belongings out of the car while my parents thank and create smalltalk with Kook.

He already has his suitcase next to him and out of the car. My mom hugs him and he shakes my dad's hand before they come over to me and hug me goodbye.

They leave and Jungkook offers to help me get my things into my dorm but I tell him I'll be okay doing it myself.

"You sure? I know it's not much but still." He offers again but I shake my head.

"Nah, I got it. Thanks, though."

"Okay, see you around." He waves bye and leaves to go to his dorm.

I stack the three light boxes together and take it inside. I go to my dorm and unlock it, opening the door to find the room freezing and empty aside from some paint buckets and two worker dudes.

"Uh, hi." I greet and set my boxes down, "What's going on?"

"While the staff was cleaning the room over break, they broke the window. You're gonna have to find another place to go." One of them says and points to the space where the window should be.

"What?" I pull a shocked and agitated expression, "Can't the campus just give me another room until this gets fixed?"

"You'll have to go to the main entrance folk and talk to them about it." He explains and I sigh.

Just my luck.

I take my boxes back to my car before making my way to the head staff.

"Hi Ellie!" The lady greets me, "What's up with you? You don't look happy like usual."

"I can't go to my dorm because the window is broken, is there any way I could get a temporary room until everything is fixed?"

"I don't think so." She moves her mouth the the side. "The university isn't responsible for you until the break is over, so we can't supply you a room until classes start in a few days. You'll have to find another place to be for now. You have friends, I'm sure it won't be difficult. But there are small storage lockers if you need a place to put your things in the meantime."

"Are you sure? I can just be cold or something and still be there."

"No, I'm afraid not," she denies, "It's unsafe to let you stay there. Just find a friend to let you stay with them and you'll be okay."

"Thanks," I sigh and leave. I'll just call Jess and she'll let me stay with her.

I dial her number right away and she picks up: "Hey hon, what's up?" She greets through the phone.

"I can't get into my dorm, can I room with you until break ends?" I say upfront.

"Ooooh," her tone tells me it all. "I won't be back until the day school starts again. The rules say I have to be there for anyone outside of the roommate thing to be rooming with me. I'm really sorry."

I let out another long sigh, just my luck, again.

"Thanks anyway. I'll find someone." I tell her and we hang up. I smack my head against the wall of the building and groan in annoyance before going back to my things in my car. I drive them to the storage garage and unload everything except for my suitcase and then go back, parking my car and just sitting there for a minute.

Who can I go to? Oliver won't be back, Jessie won't be back, even Vera won't be back until break ends.

And although my mind melts at the idea of it, I end up thinking of Jungkook. I get out of my car and walk to the mens dorms, going upstairs to room 210 and hesitating, but I knock anyway.

He opens the door and greets me with a confused expression, "uh... Miss me already?"

I sigh and lean against the door frame. "I need a place to stay and my friends aren't going to be back until break is over."

"Sure, but why?"

"Someone broke my window when they were cleaning and it's 'unsafe to let me stay there' so I have to get another room."

"Oh, how long are you gonna be here?"

"Just until classes start again, but if my window isn't fixed by then, the university will provide me a room."

He nods, "Get your stuff, I'll leave the door unlocked."

"Thanks, Kook." I say and leave, going straight to my car in the parking lot to get out my suitcase. I roll it back to his dorm and open the door.

"Set it beside there." He points to the closet and I follow his instructions.

Afterward, I plop next him on the couch and he takes me into his arms so my back is against his stomach and my head falls back on to his chest, "I could fall asleep right now." I warn him honestly and my eyes flutter shut.

"I won't stop you," He urges, tiredness apparent in his voice as well. He softly plays with my hair, humming to a song quietly while I drift off to sleep.

I wake up to giggling and my eyes open slightly, looking through my sleepy lashes to see who it is.

Three guys stand in front of me. The shortest one is the one giggling and trying to compose himself while the one with a low voice shushes him. The tallest is saying something but I'm still in my half-awake stage where I can't understand much of what he's saying.

"The middle of an oreo is the best, I don't care what anyone says." One says and I start slowly coming out of my haze while they're crinkling a packet of Oreo's.

"Light without darkness, darkness without light. One cannot exist without the other." The tallest states wisely.

"Yo, Socrates. It's a fucking cookie." The deep-voice-guy tosses the sweet at him while the shortest giggles.

I open my eyes fully and sit up, unwrapping Jungkook's arms from my waist.

"Heyoooo!" Socrates shouts when he sees me, "Want an Oreo?"

"No thanks." I frown and glance over to see Jungkook waking up.

He spots the three of them and starts to chuckle while stretching, "These are my friends, don't mind them." He informs tiredly.

"And who is she?" Giggles asks.

"Ellie." I reply.

"Ellie?" They all confirm in unison and look between me and Jungkook for a good second.

"Don't." Jungkook warns the boys.

"What? Did I do something?" I question and look between them unsurely.

Jungkook glares at them and they don't say anything, "You didn't do anything, don't worry." Giggles assures me.

"I'm Jimin by the way." He smiles cutely and I smile right back.

"This is Namjoon and Taehyung." He informs me.

"Why are you guys here?" Jungkook interrogates them and they freeze like deer in headlights.

"Definitely not to hijack your Oreos." Taehyung states with a small smile.

Kook rolls his eyes and stands up next to them to close the package, "Actually, what do you want?"

"We were coming here to hang out since you're back but then we saw her and decided to take your Oreo's instead." Namjoon explains.

Jimin sits next to me on the couch and side eyes me, talking quietly so the others don't hear, "So are you and Jungkook just fucking or...?"

"We're just friends." I tell him, "Despite the rumors, we're not having... You know."

"You sure? He doesn't do that with just any girl."

"Do what?" I raise a brown up.

"Like sleep and whatever with them." He gestures to the couch, "Unless you are high on his priorities list, you'd be gone by now."

Don't bring my hopes up Mr. Mochi. "There's nothing going on between us, I can assure you."

"Hey guys," Jimin gets their attentions, "Dibs."

They awe in disappointment and point aggressively, "No way! You can't do that!"

"Come on, man!" They whine.

"D-Do what?" I look at them all and Jungkook lets out a big sigh.

"I already have dibs, you guys can't." He informs them and they awe in disappointment again, complaining for a minute before he shuts them up.

They talk again and I still have a puzzled look on my face, what do they mean 'dibs'? What are they calling dibs on?

My thoughts are interrupted by the door opening and two other guys coming in.

"Heyyyy!" One shimmies into the room with a heart-shaped smile.

I bring my legs up and sit in the corner of the couch.

"What are you guys doing here?" Jungkook asks the two men that entered.

"We heard you had Oreos." The smiley one says and goes straight to the small cabinet to pull them out.

Their laughter fills the small space and I sit awkwardly, staying quiet while they talk.

Without anyone noticing, I silently get my shoes on and make my way out the door. "Wow, how many of them are in there? Like six? Yikes."

Once I'm out of the room, I realize I don't know where to go because it's not like I have a dorm to go back to.

I feel a vibration in my pocket and I take my phone out to see a text from Calvin.

Call me.

A confused expression meets my face but I call him anyway.

"Hey, what's up?" I say through the phone and sit on the top steps of the stairs.

"I want to apologize. When we were at that club, I was drunk and I didn't know what I was doing. I'm at that new restaurant if you want to have lunch and we can talk properly." He explains sincerely.

"Since I have nothing to do, I'll head over there right now." I take his offer, "See you in probably... Er... Fifteen minutes?"

I get up and walk down the stairs before opening the door and going outside. "Thank you, Ellie, I'll save a seat for you."

I thank him and hang up, last night was a little weird between Calvin and I. This apology better be good.

•••••••••••••••

Do you think Kookie will find out about her mini date with Calvin?
