CHAPTER 3
'The water feels cold
Even if it's boiling
I see you clutching me tight
Every single morning
Look right here,
I'm the one you've been spoiling'❤
🌌
So here you stood, outside your bathroom, repeatedly attempting to phone your best friend. "Pick up pick up pick UP!" You muttered frustrated, receiving no response in return.
"I think you should go get ready... if you've forgotten." Jungkook said again, while you suddenly got conscious of yourself as you sat up and stared at him. "...Get ready why?" You demanded, puzzled. "Well, we gotta visit them today! Go throw your pants on, it's a long trip baby". He said, combing his wet strands with his fingers.
No, you both did not have a bath together. He finally respected your wishes when you requested him to leave and give you some privacy, even though he still believed you were behaving weirdly. According to him, you used to love showering together. What got into you today?
"I... absolutely remember." You said, after putting thought to it. If you suddenly started behaving like a lunatic here, he would think ill of you. On second thoughts though, what if he's wearing a mask of your favorite idol and he's kidnapped you and is behaving this way on purpose so that you'd be driven mad? What if-
"Thought you remembered?" Jungkook teased, flexing his thousand-watt bunny smile again.
Hmmm... let's see. Bunny teeth, doe eyes, mole under the chin, nose, and on the right cheek, the slight scar on the left cheek, around nine ear piercings, muscular body, and a white shirt hanging loosely on his arms.
Yup, definitely him.
You were certainly sure that even if this man is pretending to be Jungkook, and had kidnapped you, he has gotten into the smallest of his details. Okay, so you knew quite well that there were about 0.00001% chances that this façade theory was true. Besides, the world did actually move five years in the future. Was that really possible?
You shook off all thoughts and obliged to what Jungkook had asked you to do, keeping the phone aside, ready to try dialing your friend later.
🌌
Well, you had pretty much no idea where this man was taking you. Indeed you agreed you were in Korea, as you could see all the signboards in Korean, and you couldn't help but think that you lost your memories. What kind of a game was life playing with you?
After a few minutes, once the two of you had left the city you relaxed deeper into your seat, trying to behave normally in this completely abnormal situation. "Wouldn't your fans see you with me?" You asked, uninterested while looking out the window. "Even if they do, how does it matter? Probable sasaengs would never get rid of their dirty habits, will they?" He stated, tapping on the steering, humming to the tune playing in the car. You recognized the tune, oh you recognized it so well. Mikrokosmos, yes, that is.
"Besides, they're too used to catching the two of us in public being lovey-dovey." He chuckled, looking at you while you smiled to yourself. This is a dream world. A dream world you always imagined but never believed it would be true. Perhaps, it is one of your dreams, maybe? Might as well enjoy this now. It is a dream, you convinced yourself. It's a daydream.
You forgot to notice how Jungkook was staring at your focused face, wondering how pure you are by your own self. No matter how much anyone would argue that you weren't beautiful, in his eyes, you were the most beautiful person he had ever seen. Loving your imperfections and kissing away your insecurities without you knowing it, was one of the reasons why he fell for you, hard.
He kept his left hand on your thigh, relaxing your legs, and believe me, you felt currents when he did that. As if electrocuted. You wore damaged jeans and whenever his hands brushed the open areas of it, you felt warmth, love, and comfort. All too good to be true.
And you never got to comprehend that you still felt dozy, the throbbing headache because of all that was happening around you and the comforting touch were the factors why you closed your eyes, and cut yourself off from everything in the hopes to awaken in the real world this time.
🌌
You felt a sort of a jolt when your eyes shot open, eyebrows furrowing as you took in the sight of the white-colored cottage you stood in front of. You felt someone close the car door next to you and you squinted your eyes again from the impact of the wind.
Fuck. I'm still here. Taru, wake me up. Please.
You were now weary of this, and all you wanted was to go home. "Hey, wanna get out?" Jungkook asked, leaning onto the rolled-down window of your seat, smiling at you. You looked at him in confusion trying to decipher whose house it actually was. "I'm just... nervous" you let out your real emotion without even thinking, your words forming themselves up in front of the admirable man.
Jungkook's frowned and you got anxious. Did you say something wrong in the right place? "You don't need to be, darling. As far as I remember you're much more comfortable with my parents than I am myself..." He beamed, helping you out of the car and moving towards the main door of the house. You stood at the porch when Jungkook rang the bell, waiting for the door to open. He heaved a sigh, pecking you on the cheek. "You always do amazing, and you'll do today as well."
So this, is a peck?
Oh, God. Is this his parents' house?!
The entrance opened to a woman in her forties, her hair short and sleek moreover her skin glowing as ever. She indeed looked warm, especially her eyes- so tender and welcoming. The doe-shaped orbs identical to her son's turned into crescents as soon as Jungkook smiled to her, moving on to hug her tightly, her small structure causing him to bend and seem ever so small in his mother's arms. Her features brightened when she saw you, moving to hug you as well while Jungkook hugged his father.
Of course, you knew them, you had like... stalked Junggug online for years.....
"Annyeonghasyo, eommo- I mean, Mrs. Jeon" You said, your eyebrows furrowing while you hugged her. Gosh Y/F/N, what's wrong with you? You thought to yourself, wondering how you let the words 'eomma' slip from your mouth for somebody else's mom.
Soon enough, she pulled away from the hug with a weird look on her face. "Mrs. Jeon? Who calls me Mrs. Jeon? I only know the Y/N who's my daughter." She responded, looking at you with narrowed eyes.
"Oh... sorry... Eommo...ni" you smiled again, moving on to bow Jungkook's father. "And? How are you doing young lady?" He asked, patting your back. "Never better" you replied, suddenly feeling too safe with Jungkook, because you moved next to him as soon as you could and he put an arm around your waist very gently.
"Let's move inside now, shall we? I'm hungry like anything." He chuckled as his mother shook her head. "When are you not?"
🌌
After food, you sat in the drawing-room with everyone, trying your best not to be awkward or anything. Jungkook came next to you and sat on the couch, offering you a plate full of ice-creams when you smiled at him and had some of it. "So, what's the plan, you two? Something you guys wanna do?" His father asked.
"Well, we came here to meet you guys which is off the bucket list now, but... I actually wanted to show Y/N halmoni's gallery. As it is we have this one-week vacation until and unless something important and unexpected arises. As I told you before, my grandma was a painter, Y/N. Her paintings speak sentiments I can't explain. Would you like to see them with me?"
"Of course!" you answered, the words leaving your mouth before you even realized. Your heart was warmed at the thought of Jungkook caring about his grandma's paintings. Being an idol never changed him-and you were thankful. You kept the ice cream on your table when your phone rang.
"I'll be in a minute" You gestured everyone, while Jungkook nodded at you, continuing to talk to his father. You reached your designated room to which Jungkook had escorted you to earlier and you went on to shut the door slightly when you saw no one coming. You quickly picked up the phone.
"Hello?" you asked, your eyebrows furrowing. "Hey woman" you heard from the other line and squinted your eyes in happiness and comfort upon hearing the voice of your best friend.
Finally.
"Ooooohhhhh God! Hey hey hey Taru! Where are you right now?" you quickly asked and waited. "What's wrong, Y/N? I'm right here in Seoul... why?" "You too?" You asked, to which she replied a 'yes' and you tried to contain your happiness by shutting your 1000 watt smile.
"I remember, you and Jungkook were gonna visit his parents, right? So you must be in Busan!" Taru muttered, to which you approved. "Yes, yes I'm here... But hey! How did I come here from-" "Y/N! I forgot! You left your journal at Taehyung's when you stayed there, he asked me to return it to you."
"My journal?" you asked, confused. "Yes, your Journal!" she replied. "Taru, I would like to have it," you said, your eyes determined. "Yeah, you can have it once you're here, I'll-" "I want it. Now." You said.
"How and why now?" She asked. "I don't know, just that I want it!" "Stop being a stubborn ass, Y/N. I'll give it to you...I wanted to come to Busan anyway, I'll visit with Jimin cause he's going there and I'll give it to you" She said quickly.
"Thank you, you're the best!" you said, and she chuckled. "It's fine.. now, go and enjoy with Kook before he and I start bickering" You laughed at that while bidding a bye.
Calm down, Y/N. You can do this. Finally with Taru coming to you, you can discuss everything with her after you read your journal... Or whatever that is. Just until then, you have to manage this guy who's clinging to you like a koala.
As soon as you thought that, you felt a pair of arms snaking around your waist. Being superbly new to this, you shivered a bit but realized who it was when he put his head on your shoulder.
"Hmmm" he groaned, and your body instantly warmed at his action. "What are your plans, Ms. L/N?" He said and you just snorted, followed by an eye-roll.
"None. My plans are none." You replied and he furrowed his eyebrows ultimately while looking at you from the side, his head still resting on your shoulder as if you'd said something that hurt him deeply. "Ok, maybe cuddle a bit?" You said, and he smiled like a baby. "A bit?" he asked and you shook your head, while he continued to hug you tightly.
'Go with the flow, and even I'll enjoy this.' You thought, sighing while the man behind you continued to walk while back-hugging you.
A/N
A filler, but I realized this was getting pretty long, so I posted it! I'm trying to stop this story chapters from crossing 2000 words like UNTOLD 😂😂
