Chapter 14 (And Spaces Between Us)
You take a deep breath.
"Stop it." You tell him. "You are so bossy."
He goes still.
"I... I went to apologize to Myungsoo, okay?" you continue.
"I lost his jacket. Remember? You threw it on the floor in that dressing room? I forgot to take it when we left."
You explain this to him with your face in your hand, exhausted with how complicated things have become.
Jungkook looks down, away from his phone.
"You're suffocating me, Jungkook," you say softly.
His eyes jerk back to the camera.
"And of course I'm scared of you. You're so strong, and you don't hold back. You're so intense, all the time. And you don't even give me space to get used to it."
You can't help the words falling out of your mouth.
He stares into the phone, his face blank.
"I'm... I just...... Myungsoo is my friend," you continue.
"If you... care about me, you have to trust me."
You're both silent for a full minute.
You watch his chest rise and fall.
He turns his face away.
"Mianhae," he whispers.
He slowly takes a few deep breaths.
"I've never... cared for someone, like this. I guess I don't know how."
His voice is low.
The camera shakes slightly.
Is his hand trembling?
You immediately forgive him.
You don't mean to, but you just do.
"It's okay," you tell him.
"I'll do better," he whispers again. "Just... give me a chance to learn."
You heart breaks for him.
"I know," you say quickly, trying to assure him.
"Hey... I like your hair today."
He finally turns his head back, glancing at his screen to check out his hair.
"You like this?" He asks with a hint of curiosity.
"I do," you smile.
He cracks a small smile.
"How come you're still wearing outdoor clothing?" you ask.
"Ah, actually... I just wanted to call you, but... I still have to go practice the new move that the choreography team sent over." He sounds slightly embarrassed.
You feel a little bad, both for ignoring his messages earlier and for the fact that he's still not done his day.
"You should go then," you encourage.
He nods.
"I think we won't be back until tomorrow night. So... I can't see you tomorrow either."
"That's okay, I know you're really busy. I'll see you the day after though."
"Good night then," he says grudgingly.
"Good night, Jungkook."
