JEALOUSY, ARGUMENTS


A week has passed since the 3 day stay at the hospital, but Jungkook made me stay in a hotel instead of letting me get back home. 

I was pretty pissed at him for not letting me help him move our stuff to the other house, but I still appreciated the way he cared for me and how he wasn't embarrassed to show it, unlike me. 

I heard the door getting unlocked as I turned to face it. I saw Jungkook walk in with a bag of KFC. "Hey!" he said energetically, but I noticed his tired eyes.

"You know I can help you out right?" I said as he looked at me, his eyes staring into mine. "Nah it's fine. You should rest." he said, warming my heart, but annoying my self-esteem.

"I ain't weak. And it's been a week. Caught the homophones?" I said as he smiled. "Sure did, Miss Smarty-pants, but still no. Here." he said as he pushed the bag towards me as I grabbed it. 

"You're lucky I'm hungry." I said and pouted slightly as I opened the box of chicken. "Damn... the beauty of this is just..." I said dramatically, cracking Jungkook up.

He laughed for a few seconds before leaning in and placing a peck on my lips. "Let me eat before you." he whispered then leaned down again, kissing me. My hands naturally wrapping around his neck as his did the same with my waist. 

My hands started loosening their grip on his neck as they travelled higher to his hair. His right hand made its way to my neck as he pressed down a little more. 

He bit my lower lip as I smirked slightly, not agreeing to give in as easily. "Tch.." he mouthed, as I could feel the slight vibrations getting passed down to my lips. 

I moved my lips faster now, trying to get the lead but I was beaten by Jungkook as his hands pressed my neck, slightly chocking me. 

I opened my mouth for inhaling the slightest bit of air I could, before Jungkook slid his tongue inside my mouth. 

I broke the kiss to inhale the breath I was seriously lacking now. Watching me struggle to breathe made Jungkook laugh again. 

After I was done struggling I laded a harsh slap on Jungkook's chest. "Why are you so laughy-laughy today huh?!"

he stopped laughing but still had a smile on his face. "I met a childhood friend today." he said, his smile widening as I smiled for him too. 

"Oh really? What's their name?" I asked as he said, "Yu-Na. Yeah.. I and her met when we were in kindergarten so.. It's been a while since I saw her." 

he smiled and smiled while telling me how close they were and how she helped him overcome his stage fright. 

He had also told me how their parents would say they would get married when they grew up and honestly, who wouldn't get jealous at that?

"Oh yeah and I have a picture of her that we took today." he smiled, rummaging through his pocket and grabbing his phone out. 

"Right!" he exclaimed and then showed me the picture. Long black hair, a healthy tan and overall, a very beautiful person, and beside her, I could see Jungkook smile as if he had seen the best thing and met the best person in the world. 

"She's pretty-" I was cut off by the enthusiastic agreement of Jungkook. "I know right! She is so damn pretty!" he laughed after. "I feel like a simp now haha..." he said. 

That broke my heart...

"Hmm that's nice.. How is she doing now?" I tried maintaining the smile in my face even though I was burning with jealousy. 

"Yeah she's good now, she's like the same since when we were kids. She was always so damn kind and she still is." 

I nodded, "How did you guys meet today?" I asked as he calmed down and smiled at me. "She was feeding a small puppy on the road.." he stared at the ground like anyone would when they're recalling a good event. 

"So I just got curious to look at her face and when I did I saw the resemblance between her and.. well.. her childhood self, so I tried talking to her."

He continued looking at the ground while talking. It seemed like he was talking about meeting his first love-..... Wait, maybe she is..

"It turns out she was my childhood best friend!" he threw his hands out and he looked at my face as I smiled for him. 

"That's very nice.." I said as Jungkook's form faltered. "You don't look very happy for me.." he whispered out as I bit my lip. "No Jungkook it's not like that-" I was cut off again. 

"Anyways tell me how was your day." his cold voice reaching me as I sighed. "It was the same. Didn't meet my childhood friend since I was in here." I said, annoyance visible in my voice. 

He scoffed and got up, walking towards the small kitchen. I looked at him, shocked he was going to act like this. 

I will accept that most of the time we argue, I'm the one who's wrong. But this time it wasn't me. He can't start talking about another girl after we legit make-out. 

"Anyways.. You eat that. I'm leaving." my eyes followed his figure grabbing the key card on the table. 

"Jungkook.... This time it's not my fault." I said as he stopped moving and turned to look into my hurt eyes. 

"No... It's your self-esteem." he said, and that tarnished me even more. But I wasn't going to back out on this one, I'm not wrong so why give up?

"Well unlike you, I didn't have a particular 'Yu-Na' in my life to help me out of my abusive childhood." I said, glaring up at the man whose form didn't falter at all at my words. 

That seemed like me.... The always cold, almost heartless. 

"Then what was Ryan?" he said, making me feel guilty towards Ryan, but his efforts never actually worked in helping me out. 

"He tried, he tried all he could but that didn't work. That was just a support I got. And plus, you didn't have an abusive family now did you? You don't know how that feels! You had stage fright... Compare stage fright to a trauma of facing your own parents!" 

I shut my eyes, letting the tears fall off my face, "even stage fright is scary!" he argued back. 

"You don't perform on a stage everyday Jungkook! I had to see my family everyday, every second of my life." my voice calming down as I realize fighting over a topic of fears will not solve anything. 

"I can't help you get jealous at the very mention of a girl!" he screamed at me and as I was about to say my next words, "You're just so toxic..." 

He called me toxic.. Every muscle in my body stopped moving, my brain not working either. I felt numb... I felt lifeless. 

He took one last glance at me before he opened the door and stormed out, banging the door shut. 

Did I fall in love? Or surrendered to it?
