Bound to Love You

16- Better Days

As soon as the girls arrived at the filming location, Yeri immediately caught sight of Jungkook. He was talking to his Hyungs and as soon as he turned his head, he saw her. Yeri shivered at the sudden eye contact and quickly looked away. Her heart hammered in her chest violently.

"Yeri...Yeri!" called Wendy. "Are you okay?"

"What?...Oh, yeah. I'm okay," she replied awkwardly.

"Really? 'Cause you seem distracted. Is it Jungk-" Before she could finish, Yeri interrupted.

"I'm really fine Unnie. Let's just get going."

"Alright then." Wendy agreed.

Before they start filming, Taehyung decided to run some lines with Irene. He excitedly grabbed the script and prepared to walk to her tent. But before he could leave, Joy appeared.

"Where are you going?" Joy asked.

"I just want to run some lines," Taehyung replied.

"With who?" Joy questioned him again. "Irene Unnie??"

"Joy..."

"You do remember your promise, don't you?" she asked.

Of course Taehyung remembered. How could he forget? It was the only thing keeping him from being with Irene again. He sighed.

"I remember, Joy. This is just for the movie. Nothing more." His face was devoid of emotions as the words left his mouth.

"Fine, but I'll be coming as well." she said as she grabbed Taehyung's arm and pulled him to where Irene was.

When they arrived at Irene's tent, Joy immediately greeted her will holding onto Taehyung's waist.

"Good morning Irene Unnie!" she said. "My boyfriend would like to run some lines with you. Is that okay?"

Taehyung didn't say anything but instead, intently stared at Irene; hoping this moment would end soon.

Irene was stunned by sudden situation and froze in her place for a moment. Though her heart ached, she still plastered a smile and replied.

"S-sure... No problem..." swallowing the lump on her thoat as she tried to fight back her tears.

"Great," Joy smiled sweetly at her. "But before you start, I'd like to talk to you privately. Can I?"

Irene wasn't sure what Joy wanted to talk about. 'Maybe she wants me to stay away from Taehyung but, I can't do that just yet. We still have a movie to film together...then after we finish...we'll...' her thoughts were interrupted when Joy asked her again.

"Unnie?"

"Ah, yeah. Sure." Irene replied.

They walked out of the tent, leaving Taehyung, and headed to a kind of private area.

For what seemed like ages, there was nothing but silence between them. Irene continued to stare at Joy, reminiscing the beautiful memories they shared before everything went wrong. If she were to be asked what her biggest regrets in her life were, losing Joy as a friend is definitely one of them. Soon enough, she couldn't handle the silence anymore and finally spoke.

"What did you need to talk to me about, Joy?"

Joy did not reply but only stared at her.

"If this is about Taehyung, I- I promise I won't go near him... unless I have to." Irene continued.

"Unnie, for old times sake, will you listen to my words?" Joy asked her as she looked straight into Irene's eyes full of calmness.

"Okay," she replied.

Joy took a deep breath and said,  "Taehyung is with me now. Which means he doesn't love you anymore. The sooner you forget about him, the better your days will become."

Even though every word Joy spoke felt like shooting daggers through Irene's heart, she could feel a tiny spark of sincerity in her voice. She doesn't know why that is because she was thoroughly convinced that Joy hated her.

While Irene was talking to Joy, Seulgi and Wendy had gone to talk to Jimin and Yoongi. When they arrived, Jimin greeted Seulgi with a huge smile while Yoongi nodded at Wendy.

"Can we talk to you for a second?" asked Seulgi.

"Ooh. Are you girls gonna confess to my boys?" Interrupted Jin as he put his arms on Jimin and Yoongi's shoulders.

"What??! Heck no!" Yelled Seulgi.

"Definitely not!" Wendy added.

The boys laughed at the girls' eruptive reaction.

"Stop laughing and let's go!" Seulgi grabbed Jimin's wrist and went out of their tent.

Wendy stared at Yoongi. "You're coming too. Let's go." she said.

Yoongi nodded and followed her. As soon as they arrived at a less crowded place, Seulgi spoke.

"Your maknae needs to be punished!"

"Wait, why? What did he do?" asked Jimin.

"You know him better, you should know." Wendy chimmed in.

"We seriously have no idea what you mean but, Jungkook is a good guy," Yoongi added.

"Really? Then why did he do that to our Yerim?" said Seulgi.

"For f*ck's sake, just tell us what he did!" Jimin demanded.

Seulgi glared at him but continued. "You're 'good' maknae just hurt our Yerim."

"What did he do exactly?" asked Yoongi calmly.

Wendy sighed and continued. "He kept on flirting, being sweet and attentive to her, making her think he likes her, when in reality, he already has a girlfriend. He's a total jackass."

The two guys looked at each other then looked back at the girls.

"Have you considered that maybe your maknae was at fault too for assuming things?" Jimin spoke.

"Yeah, they're not even in a relationship. Technically, Jungkook is free to date whoever he wants," Yoongi added.

"What?!" The two girls yelled simultaneously.

"Are you serious??" Seulgi couldn't believe what she was hearing. Dissapointment was evident in the girls' eyes.

"We thought you would understand but I guess not. Let's go Seul." Wendy grabbed Seulgi and walked away.

Jimin and Yoongi immediately felt guilty. They knew they could have handled that situation better but they f*cked up by blaming Yeri. They needed to apologize to the girls and as they ran to them, they saw the girls' shocked expression while looking at a guy and a girl surrounded by a couple of people. They saw Jungkook's red cheek while the girl was punching his chest, crying. The two were confused what had happened but soon they heard a bystander say, "I can't believe he just broke up with his girlfriend here. Now they're disrupting the filming. Tsk2!"

A/n: Hi guys! Tell me what you guys think? What do you think Joy's motive is? Does she really hate Irene or is it something else? Do you feel something fishy between Tae and Joy's situation? Let me know what you think.

Also, i'd like to ask you guys what you think if I add +18 stuff in future chapters? Haha. 🤣
