As you rest on your bed thinking of Jungkook and how he's been so sweet, you dial his number but his phone is out of reach. You try a few more times and was almost in a panic thinking he could be in some sort of trouble.


You stand up, trying so hard not to let anxiety kick in. You dial again and subconsciously bite your fingernails. You find yourself staring at the sky through your window.


Your gaze drops on a familiar vehicle parked just a few meters away from your house. You hurriedly went out and found Jungkook sleeping peacefully in his car with his seat reclined.


You tap on the window but he didn't move an inch. You cup your hands to peek through the glass window closer only to see Jungkook's angelic form snuggled in his seat. A smile forms on your lips as you tap with more force.


Jungkook squinted his eyes and sees you waving a hand behind the window. He tapped on the seat beside him and gestured for you to come in. You get to the other side, plopped by the passenger seat and lowered it to lie on your side and see him on eye level.


"Hi..." Jungkook greeted you with a wide smile, reaching out to caress your chin with his thumb.

"Hi... What are you up to now?" You asked as he pulled his hand only to find one of yours to hold.

"Sleeping... What are you doing out?" He asked right back, ignoring the obvious fact that he was suppose to be in a hotel by now.

"Well, I kind of figured that already." You giggled in reply.

"I couldn't get a hotel, apparently everything is booked until the weekend so I thought I'd spend the night here and leave first thing in the morning."

"Why didn't you call me?"

"I just thought you need the time alone with your mom, you know to catch up on things." He said with a cute yawn.

"Well, mom actually asked me to invite you over."

"Really? That's so nice of her." He said as he planted a kiss on your hand. "Are you sure it's okay?"

"Well, if you're really uncomfortable staying over then it's fine..." You said teasingly, trying to see how he'd react.

Jungkook looked a little surprised that you didn't insist further. "Too bad, she particularly said you can stay with me in my room but since you'd rather sleep here..."

Jungkook jolted up, adjusted his seat and yours, turned off the engine and got out of the car in lightning speed.

You followed him to the trunk of his car and he looked like a kid about to go on vacation. He got hold of a small duffle bag and grabbed your wrist after giving you a big grin.

"Let's go?!" He said looking all hyped up that he almost stumbled as he pulls you towards the walkway.

You're both greeted by the delicious aroma of charlie chan pasta that your mom already served on the dining table. This spicy chicken pasta is your favorite and you bet Jungkook will love it as well.

Your mom went all out for dinner and tossed in a stuffed crust pizza and baked parmesan chicken wings.

Your mom pulled off her apron to approach you as you introduced Jungkook. "Mom, this is Jungkook... Kook, this is my mom."

Jungkook bowed to your mom. "It's a pleasure to meet you ma'am. Thank you for inviting me to your home."

As Jungkook straightened from his bow, he was surprised to be hugged by your mom. "Thank you for taking care of my daughter. You are always welcome to our humble home." Your mom sincerely expressed her gratitude.

You see his wide eyes as he awkwardly pats the back of your mom to acknowledge her. Your mom is actually very affectionate especially towards your friends since she considers them your siblings making them her children too.

You bonded over dinner which thankfully Jungkook loved. He was already asking your mom for the pasta recipe to take home to Mr. Park. Your mom was so flattered that he promised to cook it again next time Jungkook visits.

You dragged Jungkook to sit on the couch and relax a bit as you started with the dishes. Your mom made lemon tea and offered him a cup as they both watched the news on TV.

"I'm really glad that my daughter's first was with a good man like you." Your mom blurted out suddenly making Jungkook choke on his tea.

"I always hoped my daughter would get the romantic first kiss she deserved." Your mom smiled.


Jungkook was confused about apparently being your first kiss but didn't correct your mom because it was better that way. She looked genuinely happy for her daughter and that made him soft.


You finished with the chores and found your mom and Jungkook looking through your childhood photos. Your immediate instinct was to grab the photo album from him but Jungkook was fast to hide it behind him.


The swift save made you reach out to him, falling over his lap without noticing your mom getting up and leaving the two of you alone.


"I'll go ahead while you fight over those... Good night Jungkook. I'll see you in the morning." Your mom said as she ascended the stairs behind you.

"Good night..." Jungkook greeted back before planting a quick kiss on your pouting mouth.

"Hey, don't look at those please?..." You gave him a pleading look not wanting him to see all your awkward photos from the past. Well, you don't actually look that bad as a kid but you haven't looked at those photos in like forever so it's best he doesn't see.

"Why? You know, you looked too cute in a tomato costume." He said with a big smile. Oh no, not that time when you had a school recital and dressed as a vegetable in 1st grade!


You straddled on top of him and wiggled your arms to reach out for the album only to fall helplessly on Jungkook's chest.


There's no way you're winning this, so you acted cute instead and asked him in a way you know he will give in. You rest both elbows on either side of his shoulder and run your fingers through his hair. You rest your forehead on his and let the tips of your nose touch. "Kook... please?" You attack him with kisses on his nose, cheeks, chin and forehead.


"Okay, okay... on one condition..." He said with a sly look. "Tell me everything about your first kiss."


Wait, what? You froze on his lap not sure why he suddenly brought that up. Shoot! Your mom must've mentioned something. Dear God, take me now.
