Chapter 24: Fair
Jin stared at me, waiting for my reaction. Being alone with him, I didn't know if I would be able to control myself.
He then started laughing, "Cora you're still fun to tease." He patted my head affectionately.
"Don't worry, I'll be a gentleman. Let's get you on your way, before I change my mind." Jin winked.
Ugh I almost fell for it again!
I sheepishly went to the door, while Jin followed behind me, "I'll walk you to your car."
He grabbed my hand as we walked to my car, making me blush profusely. His hand was so soft and slender, and I couldn't help but think my palms must be sweaty, I hoped he hadn't notice.
The night breeze felt nice as we approached my car. The only thing I could hear were the soft sounds of the insects nearby. It was evident how utterly alone we were out here. I tried to let go of Jin's hand to get in my car, but he pulled me towards him with his strong arms wrapping around my waist. Everything happened so fast. He was looking into my eyes, and bent down closer until his warm lips finally touched mine. His kiss was more innocent, just a soft peck, since people could see us. He hugged me tightly, and after a sigh he finally let me go.
"Goodnight my sweet girl." He whispered in my ear.
"Goodnight oppa." I said, getting in my car.
Jin walked backwards waving, and smiling charmingly, making my heart race.
It was official I was definitely falling for Mr. World Wide Handsome. He had me feeling like I was on cloud nine as I drove home in a daze.
~~~~~
At work the next day, I skipped inside excited to see Jin. The smile on my face quickly disappeared, when upon arrival, Sue was waiting for me by my cubicle.
Ugh what does she want now?
"Hi Cora! How are you?" She's asked in a sickeningly fake tone.
"I'm fine, what do you want?" I said shortly.
"Why are you being like that? I thought we could be friends." Her smile was so forced, but I could see the rage in her eyes.
"Sure you do." I replied dryly.
She quickly scanned around the office, when she saw no one else was there, "I don't think that you take me seriously enough. I told you to back off Jin!" She finally showed her true intentions of why she was talking to me.
How does she know I've been with Jin?
"This is your last warning or next time I'll release the pictures." She spat out angrily.
I tried to ignore her and got to work, after staring heatedly at me, she finally left and went to her desk. Taehyung arrived later than usual, looking like he had just woke up. Jungkook was behind him, with bags under his doe like eyes. I was surprised to see Jungkook here, but excited that he came!
"Noona you're here!" Jungkook said, happy to see me.
"Hi Jungkook and Taehyung!" I happily greeted them.
"Taehyung are you going to help me today?" I asked hoping to not be loaded with all the work by myself once again.
"Of course, but I brought Jungkook along to help out, since he'd just play video games all day."
"Were you both up all night playing?" I asked noticing both of them yawning yet again.
"Yeah we stayed up late and played, and then Jin hyung saw us and forced us to get off. He told Jungkook to come in to work today, so he can learn something." Taehyung sounded disappointed.
I laughed , "aren't you guys too old to be acting like that?"
"What! No we didn't really do normal kid things you know, we just trained all the time, this is our time to be young and free!" Taehyung said.
I felt sorry for them, they had been training to be idols since they were teenagers, and didn't get to do normal teenaged things. They both actually helped me out a lot today, and I was able to get all my work done before lunch. After finishing up, I went to Jin's office, but his office was empty and dark. I felt bummed since I hadn't seen him all day. I walked back to desk full of disappointment as I glanced back at the empty office.
"Jin hyung will be out of the office most of the day for business meetings." Taehyung told me when he noticed my expression.
I nodded back and pulled out my phone.

ME: Hey oppa!
BAE: Hi sweetie!
ME: When will I see you?
BAE: Sorry babe I got a lot of things to do today. Why don't you go out with the boys for fun tonight! I feel bad I can't take Jungkook out on his vacation. Just use Taehyung's credit card, he won't mind, enjoy yourselves!
ME: Ok Sure oppa! I just wish you could come ☹️
BAE: I know, me too. Tomorrow I promise we'll all go out, and do something.
ME: Ok oppa! 😁

"Hey guys, where do you wanna go tonight?" I asked Taehyung and Jungkook.
They were busy watching a video on Taehyung's phone and laughing when they heard me.
"Let's go to the fair!" Taehyung said excitedly.
"I forgot it was in town, sure let's go!" I said.
"Noona we'll pick you up, don't worry about that." Taehyung offered.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah we can carpool there."
"Okay I'll be waiting for you guys then."
~~~~~
That night I prepared myself for the fair by wearing my denim shorts, and an oversized designer shirt. I had my hair in a ponytail, and put on my white converse shoes to be comfortable for all the walking. Since I was not going on a date, I was not trying too hard to look cute.
The boys showed up in Taehyung's BMW, ready to take me to the fair. They both look excited as they talked about what rides they wanted to go on, as we drove to the fair.
"What if someone recognizes you guys?" I asked worried for their safety.
"We will wear our medical masks." Taehyung reassured then pointed to his black ball cap.
Despite their disguises, I was worried they might get spotted and mobbed by crazed fans.
"Most people still don't recognize us here, so I think we'll be ok, but our manager said he might send the bodyguard over to us."
"I think that would be a good idea, just to be safe."
"You worry too much noona! We'll be fine!" Taehyung said in a carefree tone.
"Jungkook are you excited?" I asked.
He smiled brightly and nodded his head.
We got to the fair and the crowd of people were a lot more than I thought it would be. It was a Friday, so I guess I shouldn't have been surprised. The boys both put their masks on, and we entered the fair.
"Lets get some churros!" Jungkook suggestsy as soon as he saw the food vendors.
We got some for each of us, and chomped on them, as we walked around the park gazing around for something fun to do.
"Noona I'm gonna win a stuffed animal for you!" Taehyung said pointing to the fair games.
Taehyung and Jungkook both went to sit at the water gun shooting game, and competed to get prizes. They were both exceptionally good, and beat out everyone playing, until Jungkook ended up winning!
"Ha! I'm still better at hyung at these games." He chuckled triumphantly.
"I'll win the next one!" Taehyung said upset that he lost.
I laughed at their competitiveness at something so trivial.
Jungkook picked out a giant teddy bear and handed it to me. "Here noona this is for you, for being so nice to me," he shyly offered me the prize.
I gratefully took the teddy and saw Taehyung seething at Jungkook's gesture. We left the games area and came across the fun and scary rides. Both Taehyung and Jungkook look overjoyed to get on the rides! Most of the rides were for two people. I told them to go enjoy themselves, since I hated scary rides. I waited for them to finish while hugging my teddy bear prize.
Someone tapped on my shoulder and when I turned around to see who it was, the man grabbed me around the waist holding me close to his chest. Shocked, I slaps whoever this strange man was and tried to get away.
