07. Run! Run! Run!
3 Weeks Later...
It was just another day in the country of South Korea. The streets bustled with people while the honking of cars could be heard loud and clear.
This day had been a busy one for two people in specific, Kim Y/n and Jeon Jungkook.
They had attended many meetings and press conferences and finally to take a break, they had decided to go to a hotel and have a meal together.
Now, as they stood at the entrance of the building, ready to go out, they wore their masks and bucket hats to prevent people from recognising them.
Looking at each other, they gave a nod and walked out of the hotel, heading towards the parking lot which seemed to be the only safe place where they wouldn't have an encounter with anyone.
On reaching the underground basement parking, the two took off their marks and breathed out a sigh of relief.
"Phew! Thankfully no one noticed us." Y/n exclaimed as she kept her mask inside her bag.
"I know right. Imagine if some news reporting company would have spotted us...it would have been a nightmare with all those rumours and speculations which would start to go about." Replied Jungkook while removing the mask from his face which was making him feel suffocated.
"Anyways, why did our manager not come to pick us up? Wasnt he supposed to be here already?" He asked as he removed the bucket cap he wore and ruffled his hair.
Switching her phone on Y/n showed Jungkook some messages. "A tyre of the car which our manager had sent to pick us up with, got punctured which is why he is not here yet." She replied to which Jungkook gave a nod.
Unsure of what to say or do next, he started looking around the parking lot, which he noticed, was really big and spacious. He suddenly remembered the day he had come to this exact same place with the members of BTS; in the other universe.
He remembered how they all stood here, in this same parking lot, taking many group pictures together.
A smile unknowingly spread across his face but to quickly cover it up, Jungkook decided to stop thinking of those thoughts and instead focus on the present.
"So...what are we going to do now? Are we supposed to walk all the way back home?" He finally asked, breaking the thick atmosphere.
"No, ofcourse not!" Y/n responded with a chuckle. "We are quite far from home, so we can't really walk all the way back. But don't worry, just wait for some more time, another car has been sent to pick us up."
"Oh...uh-ok." Jungkook whispered, more to himself, feeling a bit shy and at the same time nervous. Truth be told, he felt a bit uncomfortable having to hang out with Y/n everyday. After all, he had never met her before until recently and now, having to act as if they were best friends was a bit tough.
Looking up from the screen of her phone, Y/n noticed the hesitant and lost look in Jungkook's eyes. "What's wrong with him these days? He has changed so much that it makes me feel as if I don't even know him anymore." The girl thought to herself as she sighed inwardly.
"Have you finished recording the new song?" She asked to which Jungkook shook his head in denial.
"No, there still is a bit of recording left to do. But Y/n, you are a great song writer! The lyrics are well written and I love how they rhyme together and give such a beautiful message."
Giving a smile which showed that she appreciated his praise she kept her phone inside. "Oh Jungkook, you were the one who wrote the lyrics, I just composed the beats." Y/n thought as a sad smile made it's way on her face. "The accident really has affected your memory."
With with thoughts still lingering in her mind, Y/n suddenly felt as if she saw something move behind her. Turning around she noticed three to four girls standing a few meters away from them as they all wore an expression of surprise.
"Umm...Jungkook," Y/n mumbled. "I think we are in trouble." She said while secretly pointing towards the girls.
Turning to look at the place Y/n pointed, he heard a shriek from one of the girls as his eyes fell on them, "Jongkook oppa!!!" ( Lol, does this sound cringe? )
Taking Y/n's hand in his he quickly looked at her, "We need to run, now!" And saying so they quickly started running away from those girls who were sasaeng ( stalker ) fans.
Dashing out of the parking lot with Y/n's hand still in his, he looked back to see if the girls were still behind him.
"Hey, Jungkook! Slow down, I may fall." Y/n shouted as she struggled to keep up.
Hearing the urgency in Y/n's voice, Jungkook held her hand tightly as he then noticed a wall and immediately hid behind it, pulling Y/n along.
Giving a sigh of relief after noticing that they had lost those sasaeng's, he turned to look at Y/n and gasped at realizing how close they stood.
A red shade had formed on Y/n's cheeks as she looked back at him.
Jungkook, who was too shook to even move, kept looking at her with his big doe eyes and on seeing this, Y/n could not help but notice the way her heart starting beating twice as fast.
Finally, after two minutes, she broke the eye contact and looked away, clearing her throat at the same time. This brought Jungkook back to reality, causing him to quicky stumble back and blush furiously.
"Sorry..." He awkwardly mumbled as he looked around everywhere except at her.
Her lips tugged up to form a soft smile as she looked at the tomato red faced Jungkook. "Nah, it's ok!" She replied. "By the way, I know I have said this before but, you really are a fast runner. I almost tripped three times while running!"
"I am sorry. I really wanted to get always from those girls, it's really exhausting having to deal with such fans." Jungkook replied to which Y/n shrugged her shoulders.
She nodded in agreement, "The bad side of being a celebrity I guess?"
A smile made its way on Jungkook's face as he looked at her. The past three weeks had been really tough for him and it wouldn't take a second to guess why.
Adjusting to this new surrounding, to these new people and to this new life had been extremely tough. But now, though he did feel a bit lost and confused sometimes, he was beginning to adjust and accept the reality. The reality being that he actually had been, somehow, transported into a parallel universe and would never know what might happen next.
DING
Opening his phone he looked at the notification he got.
"What is it?" Asked Y/n to which Jungkook quickly went through the notification and then looked up at her.
"It is a notification from our manager, he is asking us of where we are."
"Send him the location of this place." Y/n suggested to which Jungkook gave a smile and nodded.
"Done!" He replied as he sent their location to the driver.
Looking up from the screen of his phone, Jungkook was about to keep his phone inside when suddenly a striking pain hit his head and his vision started becoming blurry. He groaned as he held his head with his hands and closed his eyes in an attempt to get rid of the sudden pain.
Y/n's eyes widened with shock as she saw what was happening. "Jungkook!" She shouted with worry as she quickly rushed to his side.
He tried to stop the headache but as he was doing so, a vision passed by his closed eyes...
"Kook, what is happening!?"
Holding his head from the sudden pain he felt, he tried to shake it off.
"I don't know! My head, it's paining!"
Giving a worried look Namjoon quickly held Jongkook's hand as he sprinkled some water on his face causing the pain to slowly cease and die down.
"Jungkook! Jungkook!" Y/n said as she held him in her arms and shook him to help him gain consciousness. Opening his eyes he looked at the girl who was holding him.
"Y/n?" He said with a shaky voice while breathing heavily.
Giving a sigh she held him in a more comfortable manner and gave him a bottle of water. "Drink it, you will feel better." Taking the bottle from her hand, he drank the water and indeed, his headache went away while his breathing rate slowly came back to normal.
Sitting down with his back against a wall he rubbed his eyes.
"Jungkook, what happened?"
Looking at Y/n whose eyes were filled with concern and worry he gave a weak smile. "Its nothing, I am probably just tired."
Giving a worried look, Y/n patted Jungkook's hand. "Don't overwork yourself. How many times do I have to remind you to take care of your health?
Giving a weak yet cheeky smile he replied, "It feels as if you are my wife, who is lecturing her husband to take care of himself."
"Hey!" She said in surprise as she lightly hit his arm in embarrassment. "When did The Cold And Quiet Jeon Jungkook start flirting and talking like this?" She asked to which Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows.
"The other me used to be cold and quiet?'' He thought.
"Jungkook, have you been having these headaches for a long time now?" Y/n asked.
"No." Jungkook replied as he then thought, "Yes, I do keep having these headaches time to time."
"If you get them again then please don't hesitate to tell me ok? We can consult to a doctor about this."
Jungkook gave a sigh as he looked at Y/n, "Ok..."
Getting up, they heard the sound of a car engine. "I guess our car has arrived. Lets go Jungkook." Y/n said as she wore her bucket cap and helped him to stand up.
"Yeah, lets go." Jungkook muttered as he followed.
Throughout the entire journey, Jungkook maintained his silence as a thought kept troubling him. "Did I just see the other me with Namjoon hyung?"
Hi guys, just a small note to clear any confusion you may have. Y/n pronounces Jungkook's name as 'Jungkook' not 'Jongkook', because Jungkook convinced her to do so. But this does not mean that she knows his secret i.e. he belongs from the parallel universe.
