TW: MENTION OF ABUSE

PART TWO:

~<• time skip to like 5 months later •>~

At first, you had thought JJ was an asshole. You had no interest in him. He was just an annoyance. He thought you were just a stupid stuck-up Kook. However, as time went on, you actually grew to feel d i f f e r e n t l y 😉

But there was no way JJ felt the same way about you. You knew he hated you. You were just another Kook to him. A stuck-up Kook princess who cared about nothing but herself. Except that's not what you were.

You wished JJ would give you a chance instead of just saying you were a Kook so he hated you. You wished he felt differently about you. Little did you know, maybe he did...

~

You and the Pogues were hanging out at John B's. It was around sunset and you guys were sitting by the fire. You looked at JJ- probably longer than you should have- until he realized and looked back at you. You looked at the ground quickly.

"Kie, it's been five months. Why is the Kook still here? Isn't that long enough for me to have given her a 'chance' or whatever?" JJ said, annoyed. 

"It's been five months and you still haven't given her a chance! You still just think she's just another Kook!" Kie responded angrily.

"Because she is!" JJ replied. 

"No she's not!"

"Yes she is and she should go back where she belongs."

"No-" Kie started, but she was interrupted by you. You stood up. 

"No I'm not. I've dealt with your shit for five months! You talking about how I'm just a rich stuck-up princess! But I'm not!"

Silence.

"And if you really got to know me at all, you'd see that I hate being a Kook. You're expected to be some fancy lady from The Great British Baking Show or something but I'm not! I hate the expectations, the standards! I wish I could just be normal."

Silence.

Nobody dared to talk. You were too upset.

"So, don't tell me to go back to where I belong. I belong nowhere. At home, I'm not good enough. Here, I'm not good enough either. I'm never enough for anyone except Kie. She's the only one who's accepted me."

Silence.

There was just silence for a few minutes.

"Wow..." Pope muttered under his breath. 

"(Y/n), I didn't know you felt so strongly about that..." Kie said. 

"Yeah, sorry if we haven't made you feel welcome enough," said John B.

The only one the remained silent was JJ. He didn't know what to say.

~JJ's POV~

I didn't know what to say. I admit that I haven't taken the time to realize that (Y/n) hated being a Kook that much. But I had heard a lot of other things. For instance, I know that her favorite food(s) is/are (favorite food). I know she does/doesn't like it when it rains. I know that her favorite color(s) is/are (favorite color).

I've picked up quite a lot about her because I do pay attention; just without anyone knowing. I pretend that I don't care, but I do. I pretend that I don't listen, but I do. I pretend that I don't want to get to know her more, but I do. I pretend not to want her to not hate me, but I do.

I don't really hate her, I actually care about her, but she can never know. She hates me anyways, so it doesn't even matter. Plus, my pride is at stake. I have to pretend to hate her. Although, with all she said, it's getting harder to.

Before I can stop myself, I mutter, "I'm sorry" quietly.

Shit. That's it. I'm done for. The truth's coming out. Damn it.

I bite my lip a little and look down, hoping no one heard that.

~Your POV~

Did JJ just apologize? Why would he do that? He hated you, right? Why would you apologize to someone you hate?

"What?" You asked, confused. 

"N-nothing. I didn't say anything," replied JJ. 

"Did you actually just apologize to me?"

"No. W-why would I do that?" JJ replied nervously. 

"Why are you stammering?" You questioned matter-of-factly, raising an eyebrow.

"I'm not," replied JJ. 

"How do you actually feel about me?" You asked. 

"I hate you. You're just a-"

"Yeah, yeah. If you hate me why'd you apologize, hm?"

"I-I didn't..."

"Don't lie, JJ. I know you are."

"I'm not lying! Are you calling me a liar?"

"Well, I'm not calling you a truther!" (Reference to Drake and Josh xD)

"Guys! Calm down. We don't need to start a fight," Pope said. "It's getting late and-"

"And JJ's lying," you interrupted. 

"I think we should all just go home, and possibly talk about it tomorrow."

"I disagree," You replied. "JJ needs to stop fucking lying."

"Oh, look at that, the Kook princess cusses!" JJ said sarcastically.

"Shut up, asshole! Stop calling me that!" You replied loudly. 

"Guys!" Pope said. "Calm. Down."

"No!" You yelled at him. "JJ wants to keep lying, so until he changes his mind, I'm not going to calm down!"

JJ stood up.
"I'm not lying. You're just a diva Kook who needs to sort out her priorities." (Reference to Harry Potter)

"No I'm not! Can't you hear me?! I hate my life and I wish I could get rid of all the money! I wish my parents would actually care about me, instead of their image and money! I wish more than one person would accept me! I wish you would fucking stop insulting me and lying!" You screamed. You were now not even a foot away from each other, since you kept walking forward in anger.

You brought up your hand to put your fingers through your hair (if you don't have hair, just to wipe your head if that makes sense lol). JJ flinched back slightly.
