Chapter 24: Forgotten Date

Jung Haneul's POV

The dates for the whole week that Namjoon promised ended up with just a date. Admittedly, it made me feel upset but all I could do was that. I can't get mad at him for something that isn't in his control especially when his entertainment just recently informed him about the fan meeting that he will be having next month as well as his other upcoming projects. He has been busy with planning since then, hence he needs to cancel most of the plans that we have made.

We were supposed to have a road trip, a bike ride along with a museum date, and a dinner date but we ended up compromising all of them. We agreed to just stick with the dinner date which we will be having tonight after he comes back from work. I'm very excited about that date.

I came out of the house with my workout outfit, as usual, ready to start my Saturday morning with a jog. I've already done my stretching inside and so, I began my jog without further ado.

I wasn't sure if Namjoon was going out for a jog. I didn't even sleep in their house last night because I wanted him to have his alone time and completely rest. I know how exhausting his work is and I no longer want to interfere with his rest. Besides, he needs his alone time so that he can better think of himself.

My train of thoughts while I jogged was interrupted when I felt someone tapping me on my shoulder. I slowed down my pace into a walk and looked at the person.

He's wearing his charming smile that I melted, yet at the same time, I reflected his smile back without the dimples. I do not possess at least one.

"Thought I'd at least do this with you again," he said and without even letting me speak, he held my hand and paced himself in a jog.

I didn't argue anymore and jogged with him side by side. At this moment, all I could think about is the nostalgia of his hands with mine, the cool morning breeze, and the physical activity that the both of us are doing. Just like the old times, he is jogging with me.

A few minutes on the run, realization hits me. "What if someone recognizes you?!" I panicked, making him slow down his pace and I followed until we stopped.

Panting, he looked around us to see whether there were people around the neighborhood. His expression changed into a startled one, probably processing and making sense of the situation now.

We are not the only people jogging around.

"Fuck," he cursed under his breath, letting go of my hand. The sudden loss of his hand made me feel somewhat empty, but he did that because he put on a cloth mask to somehow disguise himself.

"I forgot I'm famous," he joked which made me playfully slap his tricep.

He held my hand once again and we jogged together like nothing. I just hope that nobody really recognized him.

"Run ahead of me," he said out of the blue as he let go of my hand again.

"What?" I asked, brows furrowed as I questionably looked at him.

"I'll just admire your ass, just like before." I can imagine the playful smirk on his lips behind his mask.

"You're such a pervert!" I glared at him but he decided to be a pervert more and groped my ass.

"Can't help it, sweet cheeks," he teased before pacing up and running ahead of me, knowing all too well that he will receive a hard smack from me.

"Yah! Kim Namㅡ" I immediately covered my mouth before his full name could even come out. Hell, I can't even say his name anymore in public.

The morning jog finishes within less than an hour. We made it back to their house and waited for Jungkook's arrival while the both of us rested, catching our breaths as we drank cold water in the kitchen.
