Born For You - JK X Reader

☞ Chapter 13 ☜

"Yes, I would like a mint chocolate chip ice cream cone." Jungkook said, fixing his mask and making his voice deeper.

Y/n told the vender the flavor of her choice and together, the couple walked to the nearest table.

Jungkook walked to the vendor and came back with their cones. He took his soulmate's cone and handed his to her.

"Hey wait–" 

"Just try it, it's not bad." He grinned and licked her ice cream.

"My ice cream.."

Y/n pouted. When her soulmate wasn't looking in her direction, she snatched her cone back. He chuckled and took his from her hand. 

They decided to walk along the streets outside. It was a quiet and peaceful night with barely anyone out.

After hesitating, y/n spoke up. "..Jungkook, can I ask you something?"

"Yeah?"

She looked at the sky and stopped walking. "Do you think I'm ever going to debut?"

He stopped walking and glanced at his soulmate, who was looking at him with a solemn yet somber expression. Y/n ignored the way her heart fluttered when a pair of sturdy arms wrapped around her waist and felt her soulmate's chest pressed against her back.

"Y/n, look at those stars." Jungkook pointed up. The couple gazed at the stars together. "Even in the darkest of night, the stars are there. Bright and alluring, always guiding people on. It may go unnoticed but these stars make this world a better place. One day, you'll be just like them. Bright and dazzling, making this world so much better and happier." He gently smiled and stopped hugging her. "I believe in you, I know you can do it. And when you debut, I'll be here for you all the way. You can always come to me for anything."

He panicked when a tear slipped down her cheek. She quickly wiped it. "Really?"

"Yep. Really."

Y/n sniffled and poured her heart out. "W-well.. it's just that I've been training for such a long time, and I would do anything to debut.. I keep telling my family that I'm okay, that one day I'll be on a stage. That I'll wave to them from where I am on the stage." She wiped a tear that fell down her cheek. "But it's been really hard recently. Trainees that have come after me debut before me.. I'm really happy for them.. but.. I don't know. Because of the pics that sasaeng took, my debut will stir up nothing but drama. I don't feel confident. But.. I can do it, right?"

Jungkook embraced his soulmate and patted her head. "You know, you're really strong and amazing, y/n. The more I get to know you, the more impressed I get." He ruffled her hair. "One day, we'll be on the stage together."

Y/n squeezed him and he chuckled. "Do you want to go to a karaoke?" 

She looked up at him and her face lit up, nodding. 

They went to get tea and went to a karaoke. After heading into a vacant room, the couple sat down on the sofa. 

"What song should we sing?" Jungkook asked, putting down his drink.

Y/n shrugged. "You pick."

He selected 'Life Goes On' and handed a mic to his soulmate. She put down her drink and took the mic.

Jungkook sang the first half. As soon as he started, y/n's heart started to flutter. Jungkook's voice was as sweet as sugar; it was soothingly graceful. It was like a live, free Jungkook concert just for her, and she decided to put all her effort into her parts.
