Days passed, with me having to attend college and all the extra classes. Jeon did text me, but we couldn't physically meet up due to our own busy schedule. Being the ass that he is, he probably ditched college to go hang out with his new group of friends.
But then again, I don't think he was really fooling around. I didn't know how but his grades improved a lot over the past week; which meant he was finally studying now. He scored a 98/100 in the recent test which demanded strong memory. The last person I thought would top was Kook, but oh boy, I had news waiting for him. I really had to high five his face for the miracle.
I walked to his place, just to go check on him and spend some good time together. A quick knock on the door and I waited outside, tapping my foot.
It opened with a click and an unfamiliar face came into my sight.
"Umm, hi" the boy who happened to open the door spoke.
"Hi, is Jungkook home?" I asked casually.
"Yes, but who are you?" his voice too smooth. He was probably one of the hyungs Kook spoke about.
"I'm his best friend" I laughed, "the name is Chae Joo Eun. You can call me Chae though" I extended my hand for the boy to shake, trying to get him to loosen up a little.
He smiled, his chubby cheeks rising, "I'm Jimin, you can call me Chimchim if you'd like" he giggled and I nodded, shaking hands with him. He was just so cute omg.
He let me in and I guessed Kook was in his room or something.
"H-He's in his room" Jimin said as if he read my mind. I took my jacket off and tossed it onto the couch.
"Let me go wake him up then" I made my way towards the door and the boy held my wrist in a tight grip preventing any movement.
"He's with someone else" Jimin said shyly and I could totally understand.
"Why am I not surprised?" I facepalmed as I distanced myself from him.
He hesitated to look at me, which I found incredibly cute. I was about to say something but a loud thud interrupted me. It was followed by a shrilled scream and the sound of furniture creeking? I wasn't sure.
"Slow down Jungkook!" a female voice echoed throughout the house making me cringe.
"AHHHHH! " was what came out next.
I turned to look at Jimin and he looked down at his foot, as if he was ashamed but he had no reason to be.
"I'm sorry" he apologised.
"Why? It's not your fault chim" I smiled and he hesitated to return it.
"I guess I'll leave then. You should go too" I shrugged before walking straight out of the door. The boy didn't follow me out, why would he?
I knew Jungkook. I knew he got laid every other day but it never happened when I was under the same roof as him. It felt horrible to hear moans and screams and I- I felt like shit!
It wasn't like I was jealous or something. He was my best friend and my happiness relied on his. Yet, it stung when he put some random prostitute ahead of me. It was just so hurtful and I was beyond pissed.
The day went by smoothly. I had some of my cousins visit me and we went out for dinner, but what I experienced in the morning was still stuck in the back of my mind. I didn't try calling or texting him. I would have, but at the moment I didn't feel like. There was no sign of him either. He didn't attend college for the next two days and normally I would be worried but now that I knew he was banging some chick at his place, I was least bothered about his activities and whereabouts.
It's after a week of non existence that he finally decided to send a message.

I tossed the phone aside and buried myself in bed. I didn't know what to do. I just couldn't see him normally anymore. The sick sound kept playing at the back of my mind and I wanted to stay away from him for as long as I could.
♡♡♡
He showed up to college the next day. Dressed in black jeans and a black hoodie. Even though I noticed him even before he saw me, I decided to ignore that asshole. Walking straight to my first class, I plopped down on the bench and opened my books. I had no plans of concentrating in class but for now, I had to pretend.
He entered the class minutes later and his eyes found mine. He jogged up and sat down beside me quickly.
"Chae-ah" he started, and I did what I had done for the past few days; I ignored.
He scooted closer to me until he was pressed against my side. I kept my eyes focused on the book.
"I'm really sorry" he mumbled, playing with my sleeve.
"I really didn't know you visited me unti- "
"Can we please not talk about it?" I hissed, eyeing him. He remained silent for a while but spoke again.
"I'm sorry. I really am" he took my hand in his and I yanked it back.
"You don't have to apologise Jungkook. Just go"
"Chae-ah, I know you felt bad okay? Just let me make it upto you"
I turned to look straight at him. "Felt bad? I felt disgusted! I can't look at you the same way again Jeon. This just feels so weird I can't " I looked away, a familiar ache building up in my chest.
He was the only proper friend I had and when he did something as shitty as what he did the other day I just couldn't feel okay. Knowing what he did was different from witnessing it. It felt odd to hear his moans mixed with that of a strangers. It hurt so much more than I thought it would.
"I know. I know I'm disgusting. But can I take you out today? I need to tell you stuff" his voice low and convincing.
I wasn't sure whether to go out with him or not. I wasn't sure about how I really felt. My feelings were no more than a blurred image to my own eyes, I couldn't judge what I really wanted to do. I couldn't decide.
"Please Chae. You mean a lot to me, you know that" he said again as my eyes were anywhere but on him.
"Please" he repeated, his hands holding mine again. I didn't know when he took them back in his grip but he was holding it. Other students were staring at us, curiosity clear on their faces.
Jeon Jungkook was begging and that was the rarest of rare sights. Who would want to miss it?
"Chae-ah, you can beat me up if you'd like. You can hit me now if you want. Just please let me take you out today, I have tons to tell and I swear it'll clear everything up "
"Listen Jeon" I turned to face him and his eyes lit up in an instant. A small smirk played on his lips as he tightened his hold on my hands.
"Yes ma'am" he spoke submissively.
"If I ever, ever, ever find you banging a girl when I'm around, I swear I'll never talk to you ever again" I knew it was my fault for barging into his house without informing him but he was my best friend and I had all the rights to go check on him whenever I felt like. I didn't know why I felt so uncomfortable about what happened earlier but I just did.
"I promise, it'll never happen again" he kissed the back of my plam and pulled me in for a hug.
It lasted a moment, he pulled away and placed a kiss on forehead too. I knew he was just trying to treat me like a princess now. That's what Jeon always did. First treat your best friend like shit and then shower her with all the love you have.
"Evening then?" he winked and I couldn't hold back the smile willing to split on my face anymore.
"Fine"
"You're so cute when you're mad at me Chae" he grinned, the infamous bunny smile on full display.
"Shut up and get lost ass" I threw a tiny piece of paper at him and he caught it in an instant. I was impressed. Scratch that, I wasn't.
"I'll see you in the evening, dress warm" he looked at me one last time before exiting to go attend his classes.
