JUNGKOOK'S POV

Surprisingly, the last two days in camp drove so fast, I had been gladdened. I couldn't wait to get off this damn mountain. Our camping was cut short because of Luke. The night I pummeled the fuck out of him, his parents arrived in a fucking helicopter to see their son.

His friends figured out what had taken place but they pretended smart and kept their shit to themselves. They knew I was the one who made Luke's face hardly recognizable.

And on the other hand, Nina was making sure I was not in the middle of Luke's drama. She also daubs my knuckles to conceal the harm. Even after informing her that I wasn't even the least bit terrified of being caught and telling them I knocked the living hell out of him, she didn't listen and just did whatever she wanted.

But our principles figured it out way before due to the strangest things Nina and I were doing. And all I did was sigh.

I was on the bus, on our way back to our town. This is the only moment I was happy compared to the rest of my week in that hideous camp.

"Move the hell away, close your stupid long legs" I watched as Nina hissed at me. I told her to give the window seat which she pretended like I never said. So in return, I sat comfortably, taking as much seat as I could take while squeezing Nina.

She was jammed between me and the window side of the bus. "Jungkook..." Her warning call wasn't sufficient to make me move.

"FINE" she gritted, her teeth are gonna crack by the way she grits.

"Take my seat" She stood up scowling at me until I slid to the window seat.

"Did I mention that I hate you?!" She sat on my seat, her arms folded and looking at the back of Elijah's head.

"Twenty-two times" I reminded her.

"If you just let me take the window seat, you wouldn't have to be this grumpy" I mocked enjoying the view from my window seat. I stuck my AirPods back to my ears, listening to Swalla by Jason Darula when I sensed that Nina was saying something to me.

......

"Be careful, call me when you reach home" Principal Kim waved us goodbye and the bus passed by us. Elijah, Emily, Nina and I, walked home from there. It was a five minutes walk from the main road.

When the next morning arrives quickly, I plan on how to torment the darling next to my house. I watched her through the peek hole as she brings a big steaming bowl of who knows what.

Elijah and she had been doing something in her house and now it's finally the time to get their attention. When Elijah raised his hand to open the door, I did that myself. I stood there grinning like an evil clown.

"Ramen and Kim bap I see," I notice the tray ultimately. It smells impressive, it's gonna hurt me to see it get ruined.

"We are gonna make a mukbang video" Elijah grins which made Nina shake her head in objection.

"Don't tell him everything we do," she hissed. Well, why is she mad already, I haven't even started with my mischievous actions.

"Don't worry, I won't annoy you, please enjoy your ramen...with this rat..." I threw the rat on her, the rat I had been holding with my bare hands. The things I do for her. At least the rat was a pet and not from a sewage gutter. I'd not go that far for her.

Nina threw the tray over her, she groaned from the burning sensation. Her blue pyjamas were drenched.

"Amazing" I Clapped.

"What was that for!" She roars.

"Jeon Jungkook you broke my favourite bowl" Excuse me, what?

"I am sorry Neens but the right words were 'you burned me asshole' " Elijah corrects.

"And it burns, what the hell" She picks up the things she dropped while Elijah helps her. "Good, just reminding you of our game just so you have forgotten it" I stepped inside my apartment with a huge grin on my face.

Upsetting her is my everyday thing, I am addicted to it. Perhaps I am addicted to her. But why would I be? Is she my type? Nah, she's way too annoying to be my type. I could be obsessed with her if she did not have that invisible cornets over her head and not to mention her obscene attitude.

"Hey...what's happening here?"

"Kyle?"

What in the motherfucking world? Why is he here? Who in the bloody hell called this piece of shit? I turned and walked out quicker than I supposed.

"Oh my god, Kyle" Nina takes a step towards the jerk who just randomly popped out of the elevator. "I forgot we were going out today," she says.
I would pull out every single hair out of his lashes one by one if he is taking her out on a date.

"Hey, if you are ...busy, we can go another time" he suggests skimming her up and down. Then she said something that he liked and nodded.

"Come on in, and Elijah please request the cleaning lady to clean this up" and she left. She went inside her apartment with that damn bastard, leaving me there, she didn't even look at me.

"Tell me what's wrong with you" Elijah stood in front of me, with his hands on his hips. "Just getting back in form" I played it cool. Can't wait to see Nina with visible burns. It wouldn't be burning or hurting that much right? I should probably stop with pranks that might harm her physically.

"She's a girl, don't forget that" Elijah vanishes off to call the cleaning lady and honestly what does it have to do with gender?

When I was heading inside I heard them laugh, "Oh come on, I don't think it's romantic, it's more like suicidal and flirty"

"Well, what do you expect from a sinking ship and two lovers?"

"Maybe we should just go have some ice cream instead of movies"

"Then we can go somewhere...like the paradise bridge," he suggested.

Paradise bridge? The hell dude. That's a spot for lovers and they aren't that.

Wait a damn second, why do I sound so bothered, I don't figure out what and why I am pissed for, I don't even have the damn right to get pissed at the theory of them going on a date.

My introspections got cut in by her door opening. I can't bring myself to accept that I stuck my ear on her door, I am the only dumbest creep here.

"What the hell do you want now?" She glares in her gorgeous purple dress. Is she even allowed to wear that? "I...hey-..."

"Dude, please don't, we are late already" Kyle interrupted me, how dare he? Did his mother not teach him the primary manners of not interrupting when someone is speaking?

I moved away, allowing them to walk voluntarily over the ramen floor. "You look hideous by the way" I shut my door in her face right after my comment like a typical mother-in-law. "I hate him so much" I heard her grunt. I am going to pretend I didn't hear that. "Same" Kyle responded. Damn man, what did I do to you? I hate you both too.

I went to my bedroom after watching Kyle pick her bridal style so she wouldn't have to walk over the ramen floor and ruin her pretty heels but the dude destroyed his white Nike, which shatters my heart. I feel for you nikes......

........

"Damn it damn it, if you pull out something like that again, I swear to Lucifer I'll boil you alive" Elijah slammed the bathroom door shut.

He had to scrub up since the cleaning lady wasn't available. It spilt everywhere, on tiled walls and floor. And I, couldn't help him because I was too occupied thinking about Nina.

Am I even allowed to do that? Think about her. How can I, I was supposed to loathe that annoying shortie. Damn, she is messing with my head.

"Elijah? Come on now? I said I am sorry"

"you NEVER said sorry" Oh?

"Okay come on now, I'll get you ice cream, your favourite cotton candy with double chocolate syrup" I offered.

"why?" So that I can see her.

"because it's my fault that you had to clean up everything by yourself"

"you better hurry up" He strode out of the washroom all cleaned up.

............

"Hurry Elijah, quick!" I rashly slapped his shoulder while he was searching for a spot to park the car. At that very moment, I saw what I was manifesting not to see. Nina and Kyle leave the ice cream bar.

"It's the only ice cream parlour with good ice cream and parking is hard to find..." Elijah speaks stopping his car. I periodically desire to strangle him to death and allow the crows to feast on his insides. "Aren't you coming?" He questions. I wish nothing but the mother earth to swallow his nasty body.

I'll let that pass since I know where they are going next. Thereon we go inside, I bankrupt my wallet getting Elijah three bowls of his favourite ice cream.

..............

"Hello, boys... regular or mystery?" Asks Jamie, the fella, also my pal who works at the paintball club. I am a regular customer at paintball planet but I usually bring my friends, my standard game is when we boys team up in two and shoot against each other until Jamie says 'Enough is enough'

It's not his shop but he does allow us to have fun until the shop rounds out and he reaches so close to contacting the cops on us as we refuse to leave the game. However, today instead of regular we are going with mystery.

Usual is for buddies in a group although the mystery is for strangers. It's for single players, where the player with a coloured bulletproof vest plays along, and shoots everyone to win the Paintball flag, at the same time, a player is not considered to fire somebody who is the exact colour as them. In short, you team up with a stranger in the middle of a game.

"I'll take green"

"yellow," I said before Jamie unlocked his cabinet packed with jackets. After Elijah unhurriedly finished his bowls of Ice cream, we went to the paradise bridge, since it's a site for lovers, Elijah thought I was going to propose to him, he felt I was gay.

After slapping his ass and running away from him as an escape also an opportunity to find Nina, I ended up at the exit because they weren't there. I relinquished and waited there for Elijah who was pissed at me. And since Elijah accused me of being gay and more noteworthy, proposing his filthy ass, he wanted to treat a paintball game.

He carried me here even though I wailed and complained not wanting to come here, yet here I am, suffering due to our friendship. I shouldn't have asked him where the restroom was when I first met him during the school interview. I should have never smiled at him when our parents Introduced themselves. I should have just booted his ass on the first day of school just like how I did to Taehyung.

"Stop it brotha and accept my apology" Elijah continues dragging me inside until we were lost in the maze. "Run before I shoot you in the head" I warned.

I run on the opposite side, searching for my prey and my partner. A few feets away from me stood a portly guy, heaving and hiding from someone. Unhurriedly closing the distance between us, I point my gun at his back. "Surrender fatty" I smirked watching him drop the gun.

I shot his ass and he was out of the game. I saw the digital display of players, it went from 11 to 10. Ten members, 5 teams and only one can win the game. I continue to walk carefully inside the maze surrounded by sheds, artificial barricades and a wooden floor that squeaks like fuck.

It's a humongous place, finding somebody to fire is impossible, I will just go and get the flag. I can see the flag from the spot I am standing, it was stuck at the top, at the very top from where you can see the entire maze. Since I know the route very damn well, I just stroll towards the middle of the maze.

"Gotcha!" Somebody jumped right in front of me, damn I did not even hear his footsteps because of the music Jamie has been playing.

"Oh shit, behind you my partner" I fake gasped to which he snapped turning back and that's when I shot him. Dumb bastard. "Aw, man!" Yeah boy, go home.

I was close to the centre, and right in front of my eyes was the winner's flag. As I got closer, somebody popped out of nowhere again. "That's my flag buddy," I told the stranger in blue. Ignoring my words he just shot at me, though I moved fast.

"Won't listen will you?" I grinned aiming my gun at him. It's been so long since I competed with a stranger.

We both moved towards the flag, with our guns pointing at each other. I was just pointing but he was firing at me. He halted suddenly, I did too, I waited for his next move and out of nowhere he hurled the gun at my face and sprinted for the flag.

"Bastard" I howled running behind him. I was faster and bigger than him, "you run like a girl" I barked tugging him by the back of his costume which went incredibly wrong as we strumbled into the slimy area of the maze.

I scrambled, our legs intertwined and then with a loud thud, I landed over the stranger who screamed like a girl.

"You scream like a girl too" I commented removing my helmet.

"I AM a girl you stupid fat pig"

......
Oh my!?
Who that?!
New girl? To make Nina jealous?
