Oh. My. God.
My nightmare.
It's coming back to me.
What did I do wrong in my past life?
Please.
No.

1 WEEK LATER
I finally settled back into my old dorm, cleaning up the gross stuff on the floor, in the bathroom, on the walls- yeah don't ask. Have no fear though, I wore a mask, gloves, and a hazmat suit.
I was worried that Jungkook would torment me with his sexual remarks and catcalling again, but one could only pray. He seemed to be getting along with Yuqi fine, so let's see how this goes.

After settling everything back into place, I sighed, going to the kitchen to make some hot chocolate. I think I deserve it.
"Oh, Soojin," a husky voice said from behind, making me flinch. "Jungkook!" I squealed out of nervousness. "I-I mean... Jungkook... what are you doing here?" I tried to play it off, but the only thing I got from the bunny was a chuckle. I failed.
"I live here too," he smiled, grabbing some leftovers from the fridge. Right, completely forgot. "Sorry, it's just been a while and I'm still kind of traumatized from everything," I spoke quietly to him, looking down at the marble counter.
"Yeah, I'm sorry, I'll leave you alone from now on. I don't know how to respect people, so the best option is to just isolate myself from them. I couldn't even treat my sister properly," Jungkook frowned, his tone laced with sadness. Damn, I feel kind of bad. But then, an idea sparked into my head.
"Hey, what if I teach you some good morals of a person? I know we don't have good history, but I'm willing to put that behind me to change you for better," I looked up at Jungkook, and his big bambi eyes looked back at me with hope.
"Really? You would do that for me? Even after everything I did to you?" Jungkook asked, crossing his arms since he didn't seem to believe me.
Holding his hand, I gave him a smile. "Everyone deserves a second chance, Jungkook. Even you," I told him, and he seemed so relieved. It brought happiness to my heart.
"Thank you Soojin, I would really appreciate that," he patted my upper back, a small smile on his face. It felt good to see him hopeful to change. The Jungkook I knew before would have ripped me apart if I told him this.

THE NEXT MORNING
I woke up to the sound of my alarm at 5:00 AM. After brushing my teeth and doing my skincare, I got dressed in a loose yellow-buttoned blouse with sunflowers on it, with a cream-colored skirt, pairing the rest of the outfit with a white bow in my hair and some yellow checkered vans.
I went to go wake Jungkook up, and I forgot how much of a slob he was. Going back out, I grabbed a mask and some gloves before going inside. I'm prepared now.
Tiptoeing in, I poked the snoring Jungkook a couple of times. Nope. I tried shaking him. Nothing. I played some heavy metal music right in his ears. Fail! I was running out of ideas, until I noticed that Jungkook was bare chested. Bam, Eureka!
pulling the sheets down a bit, I tried not to drool over his godly shaped abs. Time for Operation: Bunny. Wiggling my fingers, I grabbed his nipples and twisted them slightly. Success!
"OWWWWW!" Jungkook screamed, covering his non-milkers and putting a bit of pressure to ease the pain. "Well, good morning!" I beamed, a smug smile on my face.
Jungkook pouted, getting out of the covers and putting a loose white tee on. Aw man! "I apologize for my act earlier, but literally nothing would wake you up. I almost thought that you were in a coma," I chuckled.
"Sorry, I'm just a very heavy sleeper," Jungkook replied as he went to the bathroom to go brush his teeth. I waited outside for Jungkook to get dressed, as I started preparing our breakfast.
Jungkook came out, and my mouth dropped. His hair perfectly brushed, a loose graphic tee with some baggy pants and a black oversized jacket, with some chunky sneakers to finish it off. It was pretty simple, yet he pulled it off so well.
"Hello, what's for breakfast today?" Jungkook spoke as he sat down near the island counter. I smiled, handing him his plate of scrambled eggs over sourdough toast, with some crispy bacon and hashbrowns. "Oooo, looks good! Give me," Jungkook put his hands out, but I took the plate back.
"First lesson of a good person: you need manners. If you want something, you say please after, and once you get something, you say thank you. Okay?" I told Jungkook calmly, as he nodded his head with a pout on his face. I could tell he just wanted to eat.
"Now practice," I held the plate. "Can I please have some breakfast?" Jungkook replied, as I handed him the plate. He was about to eat until I stopped him. He huffed and spoke again: "Thank you." I smiled again, good job bunny.
We both ate our delectable food in silence. However, it wasn't an awkward silence this time. For some reason, it was bearable, and I didn't feel vulnerable or scared that Jungkook would do something to me. It was a comfortable silence.

"So how was class?" I asked Jungkook as we were walking out of our previous class, ready to go get lunch. "It was actually good! I'm going to start coming to class everyday now!" Jungkook beamed. It's good to see this side of him.
As we were going to the cafeteria, the lunch lady rolled her eyes at Jungkook, while he returned a sheepish smile towards her. I chuckled, whispering to him: "Go on, you got this," smiling as he was about to order with his manners.
"Hello. Can I get a chicken sandwich with a side of fruit please?" Jungkook shyly asked, the lunch lady's eyes sparkling. She didn't say anything, and gave the food to Jungkook, still in disbelief.
"Thank you, have a good day," Jungkook bowed slightly, taking the food from her. As Jungkook was about to turn around, the lunch lady finally spoke.
"Wait! Here, have a slice of cake. It's on me," the lady smiled, handing him a fresh piece of chocolate cake, causing Jungkook to grin from ear to ear.
"Really? You didn't have to-" "Oh hush. Take it," the lady winked at him, waving goodbye. I was in disbelief now. How come I don't get free cake when I order like that?
"Good job, Jungkook! That was great, and you even got a free piece of cake!" I patted his shoulder. "Thanks, I wasn't expecting that," Jungkook chuckled, shying away.
"Hey. Good things happen to good people, so this is only the beginning," I told him, as we walked back to the dorm, Jungkook munching on his sandwich as he let me have a bite of the cake.
It was good to see Jungkook starting to change, maybe my feelings will change as well.
