The delicate fingers that are drawing invisible lines on his face aroused him from his sleep but he remains closing his eyes pretending to still be sleeping. He has found it to be a habit for his girlfriend to do that to him whenever she wakes up first. He likes the way she admiring his sleeping face so he always pretend to sleep until she stops by herself.

However, today he feels like she is doing it much longer than usual that he forms a smile by chance. When it happens, the fingers on his cheek stop moving for a moment.

"Are you awake?", she says in a whisper-like volume.

Few seconds passed and she speaks up again, "Oppa, are you awake?"

The way she addressed him startled him as his eyes shot open to look at her. She smiles before he takes a step back from her until he falls to the floor with a loud thud.

"Ah, ow!", he yells in pain as he rubs his back that falls first to the floor.

"Jungkook, you okay?", the worried tone of Chaeyoung makes him frowned at her.

"Ro..Rosie?", he asks in confusion as he grabs his pants that was laid flat next to him.

Chaeyoung laughs at him before she lends her hand to help him up. "It's me, your Love, your dearest, Chaeyoung.", she tells him as she stands up with the blanket wrapped around her body. "Come, get up, Kookie.", she extends her hand again to help him stand.

"Chaeyoung?", Jungkook is still hesitated as he blinks at her in confusion. She nods her head with a little smile to him. "But you called me 'oppa' just now.", he says to her before she chuckles at his confused look.

"I was just joking. I wanted to know if you're actually awake or not so...", she explains before she falls on top of Jungkook who purposely pulls her hand onto him. "Yah, we could get hurt..", she could not finish her words when Jungkook seals their lips together with a short yet addicting kiss.

"You, my dear..purposely confusing me and for that, you have to get a punishment.", he tells her before he lifts her up from the floor.

When he easily stands up straight with her in his arms, she stops him from moving anywhere to ask him a question.

"What did I do? I was just joking, Kookie.", she whines at him while trying to move around to make Jungkook tired of carrying her weight in his arms.

"Well, you shouldn't joke with me like that.", he replies before he throws her off on the bed.

Because of the soreness she has that day, both of them decide to just stay home to spend time with each other. Apparently Chaeyoung has planned to go out for a picnic with him that evening but she had to forget about it now. She barely can walk after their activities last night and this morning. Jungkook really just showed how he will miss her being with him because he will leave for the AFC Asian Cup in China tomorrow.

"Okay, our food is here. Hawaiian pizza and barbecue pizza. Which one do you want to eat first?", Jungkook asks as he brings the pizza boxes to the table at the living room.

"I want to drink first.", Chaeyoung replies as she points to the mango juice in Jungkook's left hand.

He takes the juice and hands it to Chaeyoung. Then, he opens the box that has the barbecue pizza to eat. He takes two slices and gives one to Chaeyoung once she has taken a sip from her drink.

They cuddle up comfortably as they watch old movies from the action thriller genre, Memento to the romantic genre, A Walk to Remember.

For both movies, Chaeyoung cries at the end of the movies making Jungkook wondering why.

"I feel sad for him. He doesn't remember anything but he remembers his wife.", that is her reason when Jungkook asked her about the movie Memento.

"But, he killed people.", Jungkook replied at her.

She wipes her tears and looks at him with a glare, "He only took revenge for what happened to his wife."

Jungkook chuckles in response to her.

"You feel sad for him too?", Jungkook asks when they finished watching A Walk to Remember.

She nods her head while sobbing.

"One can't remember anything other than his wife dying and one remember their love is like the wind. Can these movies get even more sadder than this?", she comments as she sees the credits playing on the TV screen.

"I think this one is still a happy one. His wife died too but he can still feel their love. Don't you think that's sweet?", Jungkook states his opinion on the movie they watched. "For me, it's a happy ending. Even though he's alone, he knows their love is still there...like the wind.", he adds when Chaeyoung does not say anything to him.

She is still crying quietly in his arms. He smiles before he gets an idea to cheer her up.

"Chaeyoung, do you want to know what you are like to me?", he questions her.

His weird question somehow managed to make Chaeyoung turns her head to look at him in curiosity.

"You are like the air.", he tells her.

"The air?", Chaeyoung asks him back, she does not get what he meant by that.

"Yeah, the air. My air. Because...without you, I can't breathe. Without you, I don't feel alive. Without you, I can't...ahh, hey...", he could not finish his cheesy lines when Chaeyoung hits him with the cushion pillow several times.

He thought she is mad because of how cringe his words are but he is wrong.

"Don't ever say something like that. I can't even imagine my life without you so don't...say those things again.", she scolds him as she moves aside leaving a little gap between them on the sofa.

Jungkook covers his mouth from giggling too much with her reaction. He does not expect her to be so serious when he is just trying to lighten up the atmosphere with her. She really is different from the typical girlfriend that will act coy with their partner. She is being herself, the shy yet very loving girlfriend to Jungkook.

She might have scolded him for not telling her that he will go to China but she will still be the sweetest one the next minute so that they can spend the most times they have together without any further argument.

"Chaeyoung..do you love me?", Jungkook asks as he wraps his arms around her waist giving her a warm back hug.

"Yes, Jungkook.", she answers him letting him sniffing her hair.

She can feel his head moves to the right side of her head and stops near her ear.

"I love you too so, don't scold me please. Especially not now. I don't want to leave you feeling hurt because of me.", he whispers to her.

His words make her turns around to face him. She cups his face with her both hands and pulls it close to her face. Their noses brushing softly as she smiles at him. His eyes could not look away from her lips that is teasing him. He almost pecking her lips if she does not move back from him.

"I'm going to take ice cream. Then, we eat together, okay?", Chaeyoung says before she walks away to the kitchen leaving him sighing in defeat with her teasing way.
