Chapter 12: Under Pressure
Jimin's POV
This morning was pretty uneventful.
It was Thursday today, which means no tutoring this afternoon either.
After last night my brain was so messed up I wasn't really sure what to do today. I hadn't seen Jungkook yet but it was break in a few minutes, I'd find him then. I've spoken to Taehyung about my date and he didn't really seem interested, he's been to busy with his new bestie Baekhyun...
Im not jealous.
"Ahahaha You're so funny!" I heard him laugh from across the room, of course he was laughing at something Baekhyun had said.
I'm not jealous.
Meanwhile I sat on a table with people I didn't know, I mean, it was a seating plan, it's not like Tae chose to ditch me for Baekhyun. But he probably would anyway.
Who am I kidding of course I'm jealous... He moved here with no friends, I became friends with him straight away, and now suddenly this guy nobody has ever even heard of before swoops in and steals him away!
Oh shit he saw me staring...
He stood up and walked over to my table as the teacher wasn't in the room this precise moment, "what's up Jimin?" He asked with a frown, "nothing. I guess I'm just lonely over here." I mumbled and he laughed a little.
"Hey bro, I'm sorry, I wish you could come sit with me and Baekkie, I feel like we haven't hung out enough... Just you and me." He smiled sympathetically and I smiled back, "it's ok, just promise me I've still got my best friend right?" I asked kinda desperately but he grinned widely.
"You'll always have me Jiminie, don't worry." The teacher came back in and shouted at Taehyung to go and sit down so he waved a little and off he went before we continued with the lesson.
Well at least I don't have to be jealous!
After a few more minutes the bell rang signalling break, I went over to Tae and Baekhyun before we went off and I persuaded them to help me find Jungkook. We went outside and I saw him and Jieun in the corner under our tree, I also saw Seulgi kinda third wheeling.
Wait...
Jungkook and IU kissed.
Of course Jungkook is with IU.
I felt tears brimming in my eyes and a knot tying in my stomach. I started to slow my walking and as much as I wanted to look away, I couldn't stop staring at them, sitting there, flirting, laughing, being happy...
I shook away my thoughts and instead looked at Seulgi as we got closer, "hey Jimin, thank you for finally saving me from the cringe." She laughed and gestured to Jieun cuddling up to Jungkook, "hey, we're not cringe, we're cute!" IU protested and Jungkook just sat looking at his phone.
I started to hope a little in my heart, he doesn't seem very interested in her...
"Hey guys!" Taehyung waved and Jungkook looked up to smile at him, "hey dweebs." He replied before looking back at his phone making me laugh, IU studied me for a minute and I tried not to notice her staring but it was difficult, she wasn't glaring at me or frowning out of hatred...
She seemed to be confused, like she was trying to figure me out. I finally locked eye contact with her but she blushed and looked away, what is up with her?
"Hey Seulgi, can I talk to you? Away from these guys?" I asked and she looked over to Jieun before smiling at me and agreeing. I got up and I looked back momentarily to see Jungkook frowning, I'm not sure why, but I was hoping for a supportive glance or something...
"Ok, so what did you want to talk to me about?" She asked with a small smile, "uh, well, our date last night was amazing, and uh, if you aren't already going with someone, I was just wondering if maybe you Uh-" luckily she saved me from my rambling,
"Yes Jimin, of course I'll go to the dance with you." She was grinning now and I let out a sigh, I think it was relief... I'm not sure, but I smiled back at her before laughing a little, "sorry I'm so awkward." I apologised and awkwardly scratched the back of my neck.
She leant forward and kissed me on the lips quickly before grabbing my arm, "it's ok, it's cute!" I was taken back from the kiss but I managed to smile at her before we both walked back to the others.
Of course I'd much rather be going to the dance with Jungkook... But like I said yesterday, maybe I've gotta try and move on, maybe Seulgi is the best I'll get so I have to cherish this.
As soon as we got back Baekhyun cheered, "woooo go Jimin! Get in there buddy!" He nudged me and laughed, I blushed before laughing with him, "thanks." I mumbled before looking at Tae who seemed to be off on a distant planet fiddling with a strand of grass.
I then looked up at Jungkook who was also just frowning at nothing, like he was deep in thought about something that either upset him or made him angry. I then looked over at the girls who were having their own conversation about I think what they were wearing to the dance.
I heard Seulgi say she had a really nice turquoise dress, so I thought that maybe I'd wear like a turquoise tie or something to slightly match? I don't know I'm rubbish at fashion.
The bell sounded once again to tell us to go to our lessons.
~ SCHOOL IS OVERRRR ~
I had my last lesson with Jungkook and Seulgi, Music, today was the first lesson where I didn't stay in my own room I actually sat with them, we didn't do any music which I didn't really enjoy but at least I wasn't on my own?
By the time the school day had finished I remembered it wasn't a day to tutor Jungkook. Which meant I had nothing to do this afternoon, I'd already done all my assignments that were due soon.
Maybe today I can just rela-
"Hey Jimin-ah, you doing anything today?" Seulgi asked as she latched onto my arm beside me, "uhh, no, I don't tutor Jungkook on Thursday and I've done everything I need to so I'm free, why?" I asked and she smiled at me.
"Well why don't I come to your place?" She asked before flirtatiously stroking my arm and looking up into my eyes, I gulped and looked to Jungkook the other side of me, he shrugged his shoulders.
Helpful.
"Uh, ok, there's not much to do at my house? It's just my parents old place but they aren't there anymore-" she cut me off again, "you live alone?" Ok this was getting weird.
"Umm, yeah..." I replied and she grinned before pulling me out the school and down the road, "uh, bye Jungkook!" I called back and he smiled and waved slightly.
We didn't say anything the whole way to my house, she just latched onto my arm and I guess we enjoyed the silence. Once we'd finally reached my door I unlocked it and let her in before coming in behind her.
"I'll leave your bag, Jacket and Shoes here." I said and gestured to the closet in the hall as she started to take them all off, once I'd taken off my jacket and shoes I carried my bag upstairs and she followed me to my room.
I sat down on my bed and she walked through the door, she did look really nice today. She wore a pale pink crop top and denim hot pants, she also did have a cute pink beanie on her head but she took that off and put it in her bag earlier.
She smiled and looked around my room, "you play video games?" She asked and I smiled and nodded, "cool, I've never really played many but the ones I have are alright..." she didn't seem very enthused...
She came and sat next to me before looking into my eyes, "Jiminie, you're so hot." She mumbled and I blushed, "uhh, thank you, nobody has ever said that before, but you're beautiful." I smiled and she bit her lip, She started getting closer to me and I panicked again.
I really don't want her here, I know she was super nice to me but I feel awkward doing this...
but there's no going back now...
I leant forwards to kiss her quickly but instead of it just ending where I wanted it to she suddenly climbed over me and pushed me back against the wall at the head of my bed before straddling my lap, I went bright red and wide eyed before she smashed her lips into mine again.
I kissed back because I didn't know what else to do, I didn't mean any of it, it made me feel sick.
Suddenly I felt her hands go under my shirt and she ripped it over my head before I could react, "woah Seulgi wait stop!" I finally shouted and pushed her off me.
She didn't even pay attention to how I felt and instead she just sat there staring at my body, "I never knew you had such an amazing body Jiminiiee~" she smirked and crawled towards me again, "Seulgi please, I've never even had a proper kiss with anyone before, please can we not rush? I'm really sorry and I still want to go to the dance with you, don't get the wrong idea, I'm just not ready for all this I guess."
She smiled sympathetically at me and she finally understood, I mean most of what I said was lies but at least she wasn't gonna pounce on me again...
"Ok, I'm sorry Jimin, I shouldn't have put you under so much pressure, but it's the dance in two days, I really want to go with you, so I'm fine with waiting and not rushing." She smiled and I smiled back, "thank you, maybe it'd be best if I took you home now and I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked nervously and she nodded.
"Yeah ok, but it's ok you don't have to take me I can walk, I like walking." She said, "say hi to Sofia from me." I laughed and she playfully punched my arm before we went downstairs and said our goodbyes before she left.
I went back up to my room and grabbed my phone, I immediately went to Jungkook's number.
Me
Hey Jungkook, I'm not really sure why I'm texting you, other than the fact that I'm bored
Jungkook
Hey ChimChim! I've been bored all afternoon, Yoongi invited me out but I didn't really want to today I guess, you've changed me Y'know Jimin, and I think it's a good thing.
Me
Oh, well at least I'm a help in some way then I guess? But what about Jieun?
I hated even saying her name to him... I just didn't know what else to talk about so IU was the next thing in his life I knew to ask about...
Jungkook
Oh, well I'm not really sure I even like her much... I might just take her to the dance and then break it off, she's pretty and kinda nice I guess, but she's just clingy, and frankly quite boring...
Ok so I may have had a mini celebration because of that... But who can blame me? It's Jungkook, if there's any chance of him becoming single again imma celebrate it!
Me
Oh, sorry it didn't really work out, today Seulgi tried to get me naked or something, I don't even know but it got pretty heated until I said I didn't want to, we're still going to the dance I just wanted to take things slow Y'know?
I was hoping maybe I could get him jealous.
Jungkook
Really!? Well I'm glad you didn't, because she's a slut, you deserve way better, even though I suggested her to you... well I was going to but you met her anyway, but don't let her pressure you, I'm proud of you ChimChim!
Me
Thank you Jungkook, I'm probably gonna go get food now actually, I'll see you at school tomorrow right?
Jungkook
Yeah, see you tomorrow Jiminie!
I smiled and shut off my phone before going downstairs and putting a frozen pizza in the oven.
I really wish I knew some way to get Jungkook to like me. He doesn't seem to like anyone! He's never interested in what Yoongi compliments about him, he's had multiple girlfriends that only lasted a few days and he never even interacted with them anyway, and now he's turning down IU!?!?
Ugh he confuses me too much...
