As a college student, lockers weren't necessary. The only lockers around were those for sports. Unfortunately, Hana decided to join a club soccer team. Unfortunately for you, anyway. Playing sports wasn't always your forte. You tried gymnastics like every other teenage girl did, and you were actually decent at it, but you quit to pursue other things. You learned how to cook instead, choosing to do some more 'girly' things for a while. Girly things are being seen as outlawed anymore, but you had no problem with embracing your feminine side. Same with your masculine side. You had both in you, and you felt no shame in who you were.

Back on topic to lockers: you were alone in the locker room, waiting for Hana and the rest of the soccer team to return. There were flowers in your hands, you were about to put them where Hana's locker was so she could get a nice surprise when she came back. Or at least, that was your plan. Up until you heard... moaning?

Oh God, you saw this movie before. Who was having sex in the locker room today? You mentally grunted and didn't even want to know. Regardless, you needed to put the flowers in Hana's locker. You could probably avoid the nasty people. Right? Wrong. You found them only a minute later by accident, stepping into the next area only to see a man you didn't recognize pinning a redheaded woman up against one of the lockers.

As soon as she saw you, she shrieked, the other man covering her body with his. "What the hell?!" he said in a yelp, his face burning from the interaction. "S-Sorry! We thought everyone went to practice already!"

"It's... I... uh... I'm just gonna put the flowers down," you replied, finding Hana's locker and opening it (of course you knew her combo already), setting the flowers inside it, away from her clothes. "Um, you can get back to what you were doing now." But when you turned back, the man and woman were already almost changed, the man running a hand through his hair.

"Babe, you okay?" he whispered to her, the woman nodding. He took her hand and shifted his attention to you. "Sorry again about that, ugh, Jungkook warned me this would happen."

You narrowed your eyes, then, you lit up in recognition. "Jimin?"

"Uh, yeah, how do you know me?"

"You used to be friends with my best friend, Hana. She told me about you, I recognize you from the pictures. Wow, small world, I didn't know you were friends with Jungkook."

"Some would say 'unfortunately'. He hasn't been around much lately. Something about some girl he's trying to impress, the usual," Jimin said with a chuckle, nudging his woman. "Can't say I blame him. Don't I do the same for you all the time, sweetheart?"

"Oh always. 'Come on babe, let's fuck in the locker room, it'll be so hot and we won't get caught!'," she said.

"Okay, not my proudest moment."

A spike of jealousy rose in your throat, and you weren't sure if it was of Jungkook impressing a woman, or seeing a couple in front of you. Along with the jealousy, desire spread throughout your body, sending quivers in its wake. To put it simply: you were a mess.

"Do you know where Jungkook is?" you asked before you could stop yourself.

"That man is about as stationary as my dick around my girl."

"Babe!" his girlfriend said in a hiss, hiding herself behind him. "Sorry, he makes more sex jokes than me. Me. I know you don't know me, but trust me, that's saying something."

"It is," Jimin said, nodding as if that proved his point more. "Your best bet is the nature preserve. He spends a lot of time there."

"Doing what?"

Jimin shrugged. "No one knows what that man is doing. Like I said, he's as stationary as-"

"Babe."

"Sorry. He's constantly moving and he changes his mind more than my girl does about restaurants."

"Not even offended. It's true."

"Riiight," you said, blinking at the couple. "I'm gonna let you two get back to fucking, I'm sure no one else is here. Maybe take it to the showers, where there's, y'know, curtains? Just my advice though. Hopefully the next time we run into each other, it isn't like this."

"I hope the same," Jimin replied.

Without another word, you took off for the nature preserve, hoping he would be there. You chose not to think about why you wanted him to be there, but you knew deep down what it was. You wanted to see Jeon Jungkook again. A man who had no right encompassing your mind as he did now. Did he have any clue what he had done to you thanks to that slow dance? He probably didn't, but he was also a playboy. He most likely recognized early signs of attraction. But hopefully he didn't see it in you.

The idea of being attracted to Jungkook of all people terrified you. It was just a dance. A slow dance, sure, but a dance nonetheless. And Jimin's words lined up with your original theory: Jungkook wanted to learn to slow dance to impress a woman. Who, you weren't sure of. Maybe it was you or Hana, but you also didn't know his daily routine and all his friends. Who could it possibly be...?

It took ten minutes of walking, but you finally made it to the nature preserve and wandered around. The trees were gorgeous, radiating a stunning ray of light. The leaves glimmered a burning lime thanks to their position, small critters hopping around. It was ethereal, to say the least.

Another five minutes of strolling passed until you saw someone near the lake. The preserve was a long stretch of woodlands with a lake in the middle, and the lake was where a lot of people hung out. Including whoever this 'someone' was. Your heart jumped at the prospect of it being Jungkook, then, your eyes widened upon seeing... it wasn't. It was a random boy you had never seen before-

"Tae!" a male voice shouted.

The man lifted his head, and another figure appeared, holding a bag. "Koo Koo!" the man - Tae - replied. When the other took off his hood, you nearly fell over. Jeon Jung-fucking-kook. Holy shit. He looked better than the nature around him. But he didn't see you, neither of them did. Tae hugged Jungkook, you hidden behind the brush surrounding you.

The clearing was up ahead, and you only had to take three steps to be visible, but for now, you decided to be a stalker. Nice one, L/n. Whatever, you'd only stay a minute, you didn't want to interrupt their hang out. You weren't cruel.

"Good to see you again, it's been awhile. Anything you want to tell me, hm?"

"Nothing I'm sharing in public," Jungkook said. You could hear the smirk in that cocky bastard's voice.

"There's like 5 other people here and they're across the way. We're in private." Ha. Not. You were barely close enough to hear them, so you had to strain to make out their words, but still.

"Nah nah, I'm okay. I just want to get to work so shhh." Tae shut up and agreed, you grabbing your phone to check the time. When you peeked back up, however, your heart halted with your body. There was something Jungkook was doing, and it had your heart racing. You knew very little about Jungkook, but this? This was... astonishing. Astonishing to the point where you took off in the other direction, your skin flustering from the sight.

Jeon Jungkook was painting...
