After the chaos came to an end, which was concluded Taehyung getting smacked until he finally handed over money to Jin to buy lollipops; you came home. As usual, Yoongi went upstairs to his room while you washed up and plopped on your bed. You were scrolling through your instagram to stalk people since you didn't have anything else to do. You came across Jin's account which eventually led you to find the other Bangtan members' accounts due to the tags on one of Jin's photo. The only person who didn't have a tag was Jungkook. 'Looks like he ain't a social kid.'

As if reading your thoughts, your phone let out a soft ting indicating you recieved a notification. You dragged the bar down to see a message from the devil himself.

'Bunny🐰: Hey.

You: Hello. Sup?

Bunny🐰: Are you free today?

You: Um yeah, why?

Bunny🐰: Good. We can practice today then.

You: Wait what? Why today?

Bunny🐰: Cause I free, you free, we both free free?

You: Ugh, I mean why today and not the weekend?

Bunny🐰: I've got a match on friday, the usual.

You: So? Our weekend includes Saturday as well.

Bunny🐰: Oh wow thanks for informing, but I need a day to rest after the match. 😬

You: How much will you sleep in a day though?

Bunny🐰: Gosh, you are so annoying you know that?

You: I know ;)

Bunny🐰: Listen up princess, if you wanna practice then you better come near Seoul park at 6pm sharp or I ain't teaching you shit. Got it?

You: Fine fine. Geez, so demanding tsk.

Bunny🐰: Better.'

"It'd have been so much better if I had kicked his balls that day." You let out a frustrated sigh and lay on your back. What were you gonna say to Yoongi about this?

Waking up from your nap, you checked your phone to read the time, your eyes widening in the process, "Fuck me."

It was 5pm. Getting up hastily, you rushed into your bathroom to get ready. Coming out, you immediately wore whatever you saw first which were black jeans and a grey hoodie. Tying up your hair in a high ponytail, you applied light makeup consisting of a concealer, an eyeliner and a lipgloss. Placing your phone and earphones in your pocket, you hopped down the stairs and neared the porch before a voice stopped you, "Where are you going?"

You snapped your head back with eyes wide to see Yoongi standing with his arms crossed against his chest. "Yoongs! Can you not do that!?"

"I didn't even do anything." He raised his eyebrows at you while you glared at him. You scoffed and proceeded to wear your shoes and tie the shoelace. "I asked you something, Aera."

You cursed internally. You thought you could sneak out and inform him later saying you were in a hurry but looks like luck ain't at your side today. "I'm going to Azalea's."

"Why?" His eyes raked through your form to take in your gloomy appearance.

"We both are um partnered for an English project. So going to start with that." You tried your best to hide your nervous state. Yoongi was the type of person who can catch your lies within a second. You always thought how he had such amazing ability within him. Perhaps it was because he had dealth with liars many times or because he has known you since birth.

"Hmm, you didn't inform beforehand though." You stood upright and turned around to face him. Judging by the look on his face, you assume he hadn't caught your lie.

"Uh yeah, I forgot. I just woke up to her phone call, I'm running late."

"Okay then. Come home before dinner." You nodded. Waving him a goodbye, you rushed outside and when out of sight, immediately called Azalea.

'Say what.'

"Bruh listen, I need help asap."

'Uh huh, what is it.'

"Um I'm sneaking out and I might have said Yoongi I'm coming over. Cover up please."

'Consider it done, but mind saying me where you are exactly going missy?'

"Um to Jungkook's."

There was a long silence making you furrow your brows.

"Hello? Hoe you there?"

'WHAT?!' You removed your phone away from your ear hearing her loud voice.

"Geez, can you stop screaming?!"

'Bitch. Give me details RIGHT. NOW."

"Nothing special. Only for um the chemistry project."

'Ahh okay for that.'

"Yeah, I gotta go now. Please cover for me, love you."

'Yup don't worry, I got you. Love you too, bye.'

You sighed in relief at how swiftly you were able to make up excuses. You felt extremely guilty; no, not for lying to Yoongi but for lying to your one and only best friend. But then again, you can't do anything about it. Since the park was close to your residence, you reached the park in 15 mins. You checked the time to find out that you still had 10 mins left before 6pm. Rather than standing there doing nothing, you decided to stroll around the park until Jungkook shows up.

Turning around the corner, you spotted a food stall and thought of grabbing a packet of chips. As you walked furthur, you saw someone standing near the stall, sipping onto something with his phone in hand. The someone was the one you've been waiting for. He wore the same outfit as yours, a grey hoodie and black pants, making you cringe. 'Way to make it awkward.'

You decided to shrug it off and carefully approached him. Standing before him, you now noticed what he was drinking.

"Is that Banana milk?" Not sensing your presence, he flinched and dropped his phone on the floor. "What the fuck, Aera?!"

"Oops." You raised your hands in defense while he scoffed and bent down to pick up his phone. "You scared me."

"Tsk tsk, such a weakling." You mumbled under your breath.

"Did you say something?" You immediately shook your head.

He hummed in response, then started to analyse your outfit and you could see how his eyes sparkled with mischief after noticing your matching attire. "Damn Aera, I didn't know you were this eager to make us look like a couple."

"Shut up, will you?" You were already feeling upset for lying to cover up for him.

"I'm just stating facts." He smirked.

"It's a coincidence, dumbass." Perhaps, making a deal with him was a mistake.

"Sure, whatever makes you sleep at night." You hissed at him annoyed and his smirk widened even more.

"You could've called me if you were here already." You stated.

"I was busy." He pointed towards his banana milk and you deadpanned, "Seriously?"

He shrugged in response. "Anyway since you're here, let's get going."

"Go where?" He threw the milk cartoon in a nearby trashcan and you both proceeded to walk towards his car.

"There's an empty ground beside my house, a perfect place for you to practice."

"You could've said me to directly come over there." You really didn't understand him sometimes.

"I know, but it's somewhere in an secluded area. You could've gotten lost and I don't have time to waste behind a damsel in distress." You scoffed.

"Ha ha funny." He threw a wink at you, "I know."

You both reached his car and he pressed the 'unlock' button on his key to open up the doors. He easily slipped inside the driver seat while you stood there contemplating where to sit; on the passenger seat beside him or the backseat. Rolling down the windows, he popped his head out and sighed, "Really? Just sit beside me, I promise not to bite."

Once again rolling your eyes at him, you walked on the other side and sat on the passenger seat of his 2019 BMW X4. Putting on the seatbelt and sitting securely, you noticed him shifting the gear to driving mode since it was a automatic car. Once on the road, you decided to break the silence. "I never knew you were the banana milk type."

He furrowed his brows and turned to look at you briefly before looking ahead again. "Why, is there a problem?"

"No I mean by your looks, you look like a party & alcoholic type." Since the first day you saw him, you thought of him as a womaniser because of his musculinity and the aura that surrounds him.

"Are you implying that I look hot, Aera?" He smirked.

"What? N-no!" Your face grew hot from embarrassment. He is hot, it's just that you'll never admit it. Seeing your flustered state, he chuckled heartily. The same laugh which made your heart flutter and did now as well.

Once his laughter died down, he spoke again, "I do drink alcohol, it's just that I uh love the taste of banana milk." He smiled sheepishly.

"Seems like your mama never gave you milk." You teased playfully.

"Honestly speaking, even she's fed up of me drinking banana milk." He responded making you giggle.

The car then grew silent, it wasn't awkward but a comfortable silence. You turned your head sideways and gazed outside the window. Since it was sunset, hues of yellow, orange, purple and blue were scattered in the sky, making it look effortlessly beautiful.

You've always loved nature. Your parents used to take you and Yoongi to the park or sometimes to the beach when you were toodlers; you smiled at the memory. Ever since the time your dad got a promotion in Busan, they both moved there and got so busy with work, they never had the time to visit you. Only a few calls here and there, that too for 5-10 minutes and done. Maybe that's the reason why you and Yoongi have grown apart from them.

Immersed in thoughts, you never noticed Jungkook occasionally stealing glances at you. Because when he saw the beautiful smile adorning your face while you gaze at the sky so mesmerised, the corner of his lips curled up as well.

A/N: BangBangCon_thelive was so fun! I literally teared up when they sang 'Spring Day' as the final song. The sub-units were so amazing specially 'Respect' in retro. Also, the ending of 'Friends' was so cute, the way Tae asked that they won't fight for dumplings anymore and Jimin saying yes in a baby voice. 😭💜

What's worse than a heartbreak? The moment when Joonie closed the doors at the end TT
