It was finally the weekend and you slept in peacefully. Feeling well rested, you stretched out and yawned lazily before sitting up straight on the bed. You grabbed your phone from the night stand to check the time, a happy chuckle escaped your lips when you saw your lockscreen picture. It was a funny picture of you and Jungkook that you took last night wearing face mask sheets as you both had a skin care beauty night together.

Shaking your head you unlocked the phone to see a message from Hana. It was 9am and you were surprised to see her up early on a weekend and she would only text you when she wants something. Already knowing what she wants you opened her message.

Hana - Y/nnnnn! HELP MEEEEEEE!! 😣

You - Lemme guess. Another date?  😏

Hana - Yes... Plz take the evening shift. He is too hot to say no plz plz plz! 🙏

You - Ok fine! But I'll be taking the whole day off tomorrow.

Hana - Yes! I'll take care of it! THANK YOUUUU! You are my angel 😘😇

You - Have fun! 

Normally Saturdays and Wednesdays are your off days but when Hana asks for favors you change shifts with her only if it's a Saturday because you are totally free. But on Wednesdays you have to visit your doctor and it's exhausting to work after the session. Finally feeling wide awake you get down from your bed to go brush your teeth and freshen up for the day.

Once you were done you went out and head to the kitchen first because you were feeling hungry and wanted to make something for yourself. The past few months Jungkook thought you to make simple easy breakfast. You were embarrassed when you got to know that you never learnt how to cook over the past years and insisted on learning something. But as you got to the kitchen a smile spread your lips when you saw that Jungkook had already made you some pancakes. 

As you were filling up your stomach you heard music coming from Jungkook's art room which was upstairs. Your brow quirked up surprised to know that he is in there. Normally he would head to gym at this time and then play games after coming home to see if the designs he made are up properly. Finishing up your breakfast, you went up looking for him. 

The door was open and Jungkook was seated in the middle with a blank canvas in front of him along with some color paints around him. He looked so serious staring at the white surface probably thinking what to draw. You leaned against the door frame just to admire how good he looks, specially when he is concentrating on something serious.

Everyday you are amazed by how he has grown into a really hot.. handsome man. The memories you have of him were shy playful ones of a cute guy with fluffy hair. But now his sharp face, long black styled hair, built up body and arm covered with tattoos doesn't fail to make your heart race when he is near.  

"Are you just going to stand there and keep staring at me?" Jungkook ask snapping you from your thoughts as he turned to look at you with a smirk on his face. "I know I'm irresistibly good looking." You rolled your eyes smirking back at him.

"Don't flatter yourself. I was just wondering what you were doing here instead of punching bags at the gym." You walk to him and kiss his cheek before placing your arms around his neck as you stood behind him. Jungkook let out a sigh and leaned back against your stomach.

"The company has decided to launch a new game targeting beyond Asian market. It's a huge project and I'm in charge of all the main characters while my team is in charge of the rest. It's not even started and I already feel so stressed. So I decided to paint something just to warm up and relax." Jungkook closes his eyes feeling nice in your embrace. He felt very relaxed as you started running your fingers through his hair. 

"I know you can pull it off. Don't overthink. You are amazing at everything you do. After all you are still the Golden Jungkook." You say just to tease him and you watch him smile. Suddenly getting an idea, Jungkook opens his eyes and turns to look at you. 

"What?" You ask raising up a brow not liking the way he was looking at you. Brushing off your confused question he got up and went to his desk to pick up the other chair. You watch him bring it over to where you stood and made you sit on it. Hands still on your shoulder, he lowered himself to your level. You gulped in silence as his face was so close to yours. His hot minty breath  fanned your skin and his thumb traced along the corner of your mouth.

"Be my muse." He says flashing a big heart melting bunny smile which made you give a nod immediately without thinking. He quickly gives a peck to your lips and settle himself on the chair in front of you.  Damn that smile of his! 

Smiling in a heart stopping manner, he looks at you with his beautiful dark doe eyes, scanning almost every feature of your face as he picks up a pencil. He looks at the blank canvas in front of him and then back at you. Tilting his head, he raised his hand to grab your chin gently and made you pose in a comfortable angle. His lips were in a thin line now, focusing on your face and adjusting your pose. Finally his eyes bore into yours, looking into your soul as he tucked the loose strand of hair behind your ear. " Beautiful." He murmured softly making you blush. 

You watch him focusing back on the canvas and this time he started tracing and drawing lines on it. Even though you couldn't see what he was drawing, you could hear the sound of the pencil moving against the paper. Your eyes traveled up his perfectly defined biceps which was very much visible and popping out because of his tight short sleeved white T-shirt. His hard chest, thick long neck and sharp jawline made your eyes twinkle wanting to wrap yourself around him. 

Lately you have been having weird dreams along with some lustful dreams. You had no idea if they were flashes of your past or just needy dreams. But you saw being touched in a burning sinful way and being consumed like you were some kind of a heavenly drink. Those unspeakable feelings were stirring inside you and was making you secretly crave it.

Jungkook looks up at you again making you hold your breath and squirm a little. Your cheeks turned into shades of pink as you realized that you were lusting over him. He quirks one brow up noticing the change immediately. "Are you alright?" he questions and you clear your throat softly.

"Just.. feeling a bit stiff." You lie avoiding his eyes.

"Oh sorry. Just relax then. I'm done with the main parts. Sit comfortably." He smiles at you and you give a small nod returning the smile. 

Jungkook returned to his drawing feeling satisfied with the lines of the eyes he managed to bring out perfectly. He really didn't need you to sit there and pose for him because he memorizes every inch of your beautiful face by heart since you are always resting there. He just wanted you close so he could see you smile at him and talk with him.

After a while the room got silent and Jungkook was so focused on the drawing that he didn't even realize that you had fallen asleep till he looked up at you. A wide heart warming smile crept his lips as he shook his head finding you cute with a tiny pout on your lips. He let you be and finished up the last bit of the pencil sketch of you. He admired how perfectly he captured your beauty and flaws in this one canvas and turned it into a piece of breathtaking art, because to him you're a masterpiece that he will cherish and admire always.

He carefully picked the drawing up and placed it in a corner covering it up safely. Wanting to tease you he took another blank canvas and drew a funny girl with big eyes, long nose and thin lips. He made the head big and the body tiny. Slowly chuckling to himself he took out some paints and started to add colors to it. 

The sudden ringing of your phone startled Jungkook a bit and the stroke went right across the face on the painting making it more funnier. You were snapped out from your nap instantly. Standing up straight, you lifted your long buttoned up dress shirt revealing your shorts and took out your phone from the front pocket.

Jungkook watched you talk with a slight frown on your face. You always make that face when someone disturbs you kitten naps and Jungkook knew that well. The call ended quickly than he expected and just to be sure he asked if everything is alright.  "All ok?"

"Yeah.. I just have to go to work today. Hana is going on a date so I'm taking her night shift." You say.

"What? Again? So you are going to leave me here on my off day." Jungkook pouted making you chuckle.

"Yeah again. But I'll be home the whole day tomorrow. Hana said she will cover for me to return the favor." You say walking towards him seeing his eyes lit up.

"Really? Now that's good news. Lets go on a date." He says and you give a quick nod agreeing.

"I would like that... So how did my drawing come out?" You ask turning to look at it. As expected you frowned.

"Yahhh... what the hell Jungkook. You made me sit for hours for this? Are you messing with me right now. I even freaking missed my Cha Eun Woo's new episode for this." You complain crossing your arms. Jungkook burst into laughter seeing your cute angry face.

"Awe Precious, It feels so good to see you throw fits like this. And look, actually this girl in the painting looks better than you to be honest. I did a pretty good job bringing the best in you, you know." Jungkook teases placing his valued professional paint brush down. Best in me my ass! I'll show you. You thought as you pick up and dip his brush into the radiant colors of honeycomb yellow and teal.

You flash a tricky evil grin towards him and he raise his brows in surprise as he judges your sudden very joyful intention. He quickly gets up and strides himself letting out a pearl of mirthful laughter to dodge the bullets of paint speeding his way as you hastily thrive the tip of the brush which was covered in paint. Splashes of pastel shades stained his flawless handsome face. 

You watch closed eyed Jungkook slowly break into a smile. Gosh, His smile. He moves his arm to his right cheek accidentally smearing the paint drops on his face. Dropping his jaw wide open, he throws his head back and throws himself into fits of laughter again. 

You don't halt your mind as it gets lost in his melodious laugh, almost every other idea around you fades until all you see are motions. His laughter inaudible now, you can't help but dote on him as an artist would on its masterpiece.

But your admiring moment got disturbed as Jungkook lunged at you causing you to yelp as you dodge him. He managed to grab another brush and splash some paint against your shirt and some dots on your face. You did the same and this time he quickly turned his back making the paint land on his T-shirt. You both laughed, giggled and screamed as you both ran around the room dodging each other. This moment right now felt euphoric with him.

Soon Jungkook tackled you and you both fall on to the ground with you on top of him. Holding each others hands you both giggled trying to make the other to let go of the brush.

"Ok Ok.. You win. Lets drop it together." You say in defeat, no longer having strength to fight this muscle bunny off. He plays for a little longer teasing you and finally let go. You both take deep breaths through chuckles laying in the same position, not bothered to move at all. You place  both your hands on top of his hard chiseled chest and look down at his face. He still had a playful smirk on his lips as his doe eyes watched you.

 You observed as streaks of vibrant shades that you painted minutes ago, now dried down on his face complementing his impeccable skin so much that he could easily be mistaken for the scorching sun glimmering its way across the window. Somehow, looking at him in this very moment reminds you of what you have with this astoundingly remarkable man.   

 Your eyes lowered to his scarlet red lips and the seductive mole below his lip was tempting you. Your gaze travelled up for a brief moment to meet his dark doe glittery eyes before coming back to his lips. Jungkook licked his lip and gulped lightly. You felt his hands slowly coming down to grip your hips. Your heart started beating fast and your body was hungry to be touched by him like in your memories.

Wanting to get lost in the moment with him, you lowered your head to meet Jungkook's waiting lips. His sweet soft mellow lips molded with yours into a passionate kiss as your right hand glided up his chest to cup his face. You gasped allowing him to enter your mouth when his left hand came up to cup your neck pulling you closer while the other squeezed your side waist tightly. The kiss got heated and you both were loosing control as you both bit, kissed and sucked each others lips. 

In a swift second Jungkook flipped you making you gasp in surprise. You looked up panting to meet his dark lust filled eyes as he hovered above you. He cupped your cheek with his big hand and run his thumb over your bottom lip, making you part them for him. Without wasting anytime he leaned down to take your lips in his for another breath taking sensual kiss. Your hands were in his hair, cupping his head making him grunt as you press yourself against him. 

Soon you felt his hand travelling up your body, touching you in a way any man would touch his woman while making love but for you suddenly these touches felt different and weird. Your mind started to wander and your kisses slowed, Jungkook didn't realize it as his lips traveled along your jaw kissing in a way that would drive any woman crazy. But.. why am I like this?    

Your breath hitched as his lips travelled down your neck, leaving soft kisses before latching his lips on your sweet spot. Your heart started pounding but it was not because of the excitement, it was because you were feeling nervous. Even though this is something so normal that a couple would do, it feel so wrong to you. Something was not right and the feelings you are having are not fitting in. Why do i feel like this? Is it because it's the first time we are going further than a kiss? Or am I not ready yet? But that can't be because the lust is all there in you but those heartfelt emotions are missing.  

Your body craves to be touched like before but this is not the same touches that your body remembers. Your body and every bit of your skin remembers a burning touch that reaches your soul and ignites you with so much passion and love. But now... This...this touch isn't anything close to it. Am I crazy? How can I feel this way?

As you were lost in your confusing thoughts trying to make sense of the situation. Jungkook's hand came up to your shirt. He dragged his lips down to your exposed collarbone as he managed to unbutton the top two buttons. 

"J-Jungkook." You immediately stiffened as his name escaped your lips in an unsteady gasp as he tried to go further. Your hands automatically came down to stop him and you clasped your hand around his long fingers which were on your shirt button. Jungkook realized that you were not comfortable and slowly moved his hand away from your clothes. He really lost control with you for the first time, so to calm himself down he turned his face to the side and rested his cheek against your chest as he carefully rested on top of you. Unable to meet your eyes in that moment he let out a sigh. He could hear your heart rapidly beating and it was calming him down a little. 

What was I thinking? This is not even right.. you don't even love me for real me. I should really wait till you really want this with me. I shouldn't be selfish. I should make you fall in love with me first.

Jungkook thought as he took deep breaths inhaling your sweet scent. No matter how much he loves you and wants you, he wanted your love first not your body. He knew the love you are showing him now is not his as it belonged to someone else. You were just lost in your confused memories and Jungkook just wants to make you leave your past memories behind and make new ones with him. And fall in love with him for real. 

He felt relieved when your hands came up to touch his hair. Because of it, he was able to look up at you. When his doe eyes met yours, a pang of guilt hit you. You could see the sadness and longing in his eyes. He was disturbed but he still managed to give a small heart warming smile to you.

"I'm sorry." you barely whispered. Jungkook's smile widened as he reached up to face you.

"For what?" He asked pecking your lips seeing the uneasiness and sadness in your eyes. You couldn't find the right words to reply but Jungkook wasn't expecting one as he caressed your cheek with his thumb. He kind of guessed what was going in your head.

"Y/n, you don't have to be sorry about the things that you are uncomfortable with.. In fact I'm the one who should say sorry." He says. 

"It's not your fault. Its just I got nervous. I don't think I'm ready to go further yet."

"That's fine. I will never push you to do anything. We have all the time in the world and I'm more than happy with just cuddling you and kissing these soft pillows." He grins and pecks your lips finally making you smile. 

"Thanks Kookie." You wrap your arms around him feeling nice in his warmth. You are so happy that Jungkook is very patient and understanding with you.

"I don't care about the rest as long as you are here with me, My precious." He nuzzled against your nose making you giggle a little. You like it a lot when he does that and he knows it. 

"Come on now, lets go wash up and head for lunch. I need to be at the café by five." You say pushing Jungkook back. He gets up and lends a hand and help you up as well. You wondered why you felt like that earlier when he is the most comfortable, sweetest and the only person in your life who loves you so much and takes good care of you. You should be loving this man unconditionally and giving your all.. But deep down something is stopping you and this big void in your heart was making things hard for you. No matter what you do, how much you laugh that void in your heart makes you feel incomplete.

"Oh god not again.. Arg!!" You frowned as you gave light taps to the cash register. "Jay.. need help. This stupid machine is stuck again." You say in a loud voice so that he could here over the music that was being played. 

"Sure. Give me a minute." He replies as he wipes off the table where food crusts and coffee were spilt by the earlier customer. 

You realized that working night time is more calmer as the customers are low compared to the day time. You normally don't work night shifts unless it's urgent and this is the third time you are doing this to help out Hana.

"Ok lets fix this trouble maker." Jay comes around to where you were standing. 

"Seriously why can't they replace this small machine being such a big coffee brand in the market." You complained while crossing your arms. Jay chuckled hearing the same complain over and over again from you.

"Who put a frown on my friend's pretty little face. Was it you Jay?" You looked up and broke into a smile as soon as you heard your friend June's cheery voice.

"Don't look at me, I'm innocent! Blame the cash machine." Jay jokes back and all three of you chuckle.

"What are you doing here today?" June asks taking a seat on the tall stool opposite to the counter. 

"Hana." you mentioned only her name and June rolled her eyes scoffing. 

"Let me guess.. Another date?" She says in an irritated voice.

"What else." You say grabbing a cup to make her favorite drink. June really don't like Hana after she hit on a guy knowing very well that June liked him. They had been avoiding each other since for theirs and others good. But if there's a situation where both are in the same room, then you get to hear a lot of sarcastic comments thrown at each other. Hana is a very flirty and outgoing girl. To you she is like a sister who is a brat. And June is a very caring, cheering and thoughtful friend.

"So are you gonna take a day off tomorrow?" June asks as you hand over her drink.

"Hmm." You hummed in confirmation and she pouted.

"You said you will help me pick a nice shade of lip color for my date tomorrow evening. You know I suck at this make up crap." She whined. The truth is June didn't need any make-up. She is a natural beauty with big dark brown eyes, long lashes, full pink lips and sun kissed flawless skin. Since it's her first blind date you convinced her to put on minimal basic make-up to which she agreed.

"Oh shoot! I forgot." You hit your forehead with your hand. "Did you close the flower shop?" You ask her.

"Yup. I just dropped by before heading home." She says sipping her drink.

"Lets go now. I think the Sephora is still open." You say removing your apron.

"Now? But what about work?" she ask opening her beautiful big eyes wider.

"I still didn't take my breaktime. I'll take it now. Jay that's ok with you right?" You ask turning to the cute boy with the buzz cut.

"Yeah cool. Go ahead." He gives a thumbs up and that's all you both needed as you and June giggled and walked out of the café. Since the shop was only five blocks away, you and June decided to walk.

"You have something on your face. Here let me get that for you." June reaches and touched the corner of your eyebrow. You chuckled shaking your head and moving her hand.

"Don't bother, it won't come off." You say knowing exactly what she was seeing.

"Why not? What is that?" She ask furrowing her brows in confusion.

"It's paint. I have been trying to get that out for hours." You say smiling widely at her.

"Paint? How did you get paint on your face?"

"Jungkook was painting this morning and we ended up having a paint fight." You say chuckling. June was very comfortable to talk to and you bonded well with her. So you shared almost everything with her. She knows about your situation but she doesn't question it. 

"Ohh I see someone had an eventful day. Was it only with paint you both had fun with." She playfully wiggles her eyebrows to tease you.

"It's not like that. We haven't gone there yet so stop giving me that look." You nudge her and she laughs with a hand covering her mouth. You both talked about it a lot and June was helping you to organize your thoughts. 

"I'm sure you must have taken that step with him in the past so why not now." She asks getting serious this time after all the teasing.

"I don't know June. Something doesn't feel right. Something is wrong in here." You  say placing a hand on your heart.

"You mean you don't think Jungkook is the right guy? Like you don't love him and don't feel connected.. like he is your fated love?" She asks looking at you. It was not the normal look she would give you, this was serious. It's like she was genuinely concerned and trying to understand you.

"I do love him.. I love him a lot. He is all I have and I remember him as my best friend...but I'm not sure if I love him romantically yet like the fated love way you are talking about. Besides I doubt that fate and such love are real. It's too good to be true don't you think." You say refusing to believe such things.

"Fate, destiny, I believe in that kind of stuff. If it didn't exist, why would such words for it exist then?" She questioned looking up at the sky, smiling at the little stars that twinkled on the dark sky. Something about looking at the stars gives you weird feelings. It aches your heart in a way that you can't explain so you avoid looking up at the night sky all the time.

 "If such love exists, then why people are left with broken hearts everyday?" You question back getting her attention back to you. June give you a beautiful smile.

"You have a point. But... Soulmates and Fated love are rare. You don't find it everywhere because people these days value other things than love and loyalty. So I believe fate only give handful of people that kind of love after making sure that they truly deserves it." 

 Her words strangely latched on to your heart. You didn't know if those words were true or not. But your heart was urging you to believe them. You felt a warm tingling feeling wrapping your heart, making it beat in a slow calm pace as if it's hinting you that your fated love exist too.
