6.
Jungkook sat with his head leaning against the headrest in the car. He drank a bottle of water and splashed some onto his face earlier – trying to sober himself quick before he starts driving back. It's been almost 10 minutes now, and he felt fresher than before.
That's a good amount of time for him to do some self-reflecting. He had cursed internally for drinking more than 2 glasses – a limit that he had put on himself. He's not drunk, but he's still worried that he won't be able to pay full attention to the road.
A part of him blamed the boys for saying such ignorant things about a girl they didn't even know, but another part can't help but blames himself for being bothered by it. The latter was the sole reason why he kept on taking sips and he knew that it's the main cause of him now sitting and wasting time in the car.
Aish...let's forget about it and move on, shall we? He was ready to drive when he caught a movement from the house. It's the girl...it's definitely the same girl from the wedding! Jungkook watched as she puts on her coat while coming out to the driveway.
She looked to her left, then to her right before proceeding towards the gate. Slowly, she was seen farther and farther from the house and had now become more of a shadow in his eyes. Jungkook didn't blink even once, as she kept walking under the streetlights and in between the parked cars and shaded trees. Damn...even her silhouette in that coat...walking as if she owns the street...is sexy as hell!
Halfway through the driveway, she stopped and bends down. He continues watching as she changed her shoes. He can't help his smile as she's now 4 inches shorter than before, and he briefly wondered if she's the kind that prefers sneakers and flats over heels.
She turned left once she reached the gate. Jungkook didn't know what was going through his mind when he started driving, with the intention of following her. Did she park her car outside?
He slowed down when he turned left. She's still walking on the lonely, quiet street – not that far from him. She didn't drive here? But it's a long street – is she walking the whole way through??
...
Okay, someone's definitely following me in that car – I'm 100% confident!
She tested her theory too – doubling her pace and intentionally slowing down to see if the car would drive past her. But it didn't. Instead, she heard the slight sound of the vehicle pulling on the brakes to maintain the distance.
Who is it – is it the guy from just now?? Oh God – he's so gonna get it! No means no, what don't these rich assholes don't understand??
She turns abruptly and saw the car stopping all too sudden – mimicking her gesture. Now furious, Lisa stomps towards the car – ready to give him a piece of her mind and all the rude phrases in her head that he'd wish he's back with his equally asshole friends back at the wedding! She could tell that the driver is nervous that he's been caught, as she saw the tires turning slightly to the right and straight again – as if he didn't know what to do.
Oh, I'll tell you what to do –
Lisa taps aggressively on the pitch-black tinted window and after a few, it slides down – revealing a now different face than who she expected.
Wait...the weirdo? Oh man, did they make a pact on ruining her night or something? She didn't even know these people – what did she do to deserve this??
"Why are you following me?" She didn't shout, but the strict tone sounded loud enough in this quiet surroundings.
His round eyes got bigger, making him look like he was just caught stealing a bread at a local market in this light. Or maybe a cute baby bunny - she couldn't decide - "I uh...I wasn't follo-"
She wasn't going to fall for the doe eyes, so she cuts him off. "Yes, you were. Did your friend send you to stalk me? Or is everyone in your group does this all the time to girls who walk alone at night?"
"What – no!! What friend?" How dare he pretends like he didn't know what she's talking about and how dare he looks at her like he's flustered over being accused! Even if he still looks like a baby bunny -
You don't get to look cute after stalking a girl – you creep!
"Then why were you following me? Are you trying to kidnap me or something? Hold me hostage at some freaking party and sell me off??"
"No! Oh my God – no!! I just –" He shouted and sighed, clearly frustrated.
Yeah...can't find any answers now, can you? Lisa grabs the phone in her pocket, unlocking it with her index finger in case she needed to do an emergency call real quick.
"I just...I'm sorry! I saw you walking alone and I thought...I thought I'd make sure you'd be safe until you reach the roadside. It's dark and you're alone so I thought...it's just...I just...I'm sorry!" He looks down apologetically as Lisa stares at the mumbling mess before her.
...
Oh fuck, fuck, fuck – this is a disaster!! What the hell was he thinking?! Never before was he accused of stalking or – or planning an abduction and now he might be thrown in jail and spends the rest of his life regretting his decision tonight while eating dried pieces of bread! His face will be plastered on every news channel and his parents would be so fucking disappointed that they'll disown him immediately!
The girl is still staring at his nervous state and not gonna lie – he's damn scared right now! Not just at the prospect of losing his credibility and ruining his life forever, but also because the girl looked fierce as hell when she's angry!
But she also looked hot – damn it, Kook – priorities!!
After what felt like an eternity of self-beating, she suddenly opened the passenger door and got in. Jungkook gaped, confused, and somewhat more scared than earlier.
Is she gonna ask me to drive to the police station and hand myself over? Is she gonna kill me? What's happening –
"Since you wanted to make sure I'll be safe, why don't you just send me to the bus stop up front?"
Jungkook gulped. "B-bus stop?"
"Yeah, just follow the road and turn right at the end of the street. There's a bus stop further down," She said calmly, resting her bag on her lap casually and looking so different than how she was before. Is that...is that a smile?
"Okay...s-sure," His hands are still shaking from the trauma, but he managed to force them to move.
This is a mistake...he shouldn't have followed her. She might tell someone about this whole misunderstanding...oh no, what if she tells Bambam?? The guy would kick his ass and despise him for life –
"You're a friend of Bam-ie right?" Her voice is soft but he's too scared to look or even answer her, so he kept his eyes on the road and pretends that he's alone. "Hey," Did she just...poked on his shoulder?? "Did I scare you just now? I'm sorry...I'm a girl, it's necessary for me to feel paranoid. Especially after what your friend had done,"
"My friend?" His voice came out croaky.
"The one who sat at your table, they're all your friends right?"
Oh...does that mean she noticed me? Of course she did – didn't she smiled at you before??
His heart leaps in joy for some reason, but he suppressed the urge to smile. "Why, what did he do?"
"Not important now,"
