Jk's pov:

How do I tell him, should I even tell him? It's been a year since that day I was confused about my feelings, I'm on my last year of college with my last semester exam tomorrow.

I'll be graduating by this month and I also have my job application ready. I'm all settled with my life at 21 only, the only thing I didn't do after that day, was date.

I couldn't bring myself to date anyone, I rejected anyone before they could even try and had a distance with people who weren't my friends.

This was so different of me, I would never do something like this but I physically couldn't.

I spent a lot of nights thinking about how I feel, and I couldn't truly agree of my liking towards him, but I understand now that the reason I keep hesitating is because I never liked anyone genuinely and romantically before.
He's still someone new in my life, I spent the past year getting to know and I tried getting to know him on a personal level.
There's still so much I don't know about him, which is surprising, I always know everything about everyone.

"are you excited?"

"huh?"

"I know you passed all your exams, so graduation comes next right? Aren't you excited?? You said you were gonna pick an outfit for the robe too" Noah explained

"of course I am! I'm thinking yellow, it's summer and shiny, but purple is compelling" I said, purple was a choice only because my mother wore purple on her graduation day, which gives me a chance to recreate her graduation photos

"I'm gonna wear blue, Ian said I should match my eye color"

"blue and black? Sounds good to me"

"should we meet up at the mall tomorrow?"

I gave him a thumbs up before booking a cab to head back to my apartment. The feeling you get when you Finish your last exam, ahh indescribable.

I proceeded to spend the next 3 hours online selecting a few outfits and leave the last choice to my dad and brother but maybe I should first go get myself a huge burger and fries.

All that focusing on exams made me lose weight and Damn my eyes look like expensive gucci bags. I need me some spa time.

"hey curly head you busy?"

"uhhh.. No" Noah spoke hesitantly

"why? What are you doing?"

"straightening my hair?" he's being sus

"no seriously what are yo— you liar, your with that theif aren't you?"

"hey don't call Ian a theif, you keep doing that I'm gonna call your future boyfriend a burglar" he said through my phone speaker

I thought about Noah –who's so afraid of taehyung– calling him a burglar on Broad daylight and laughed out like no one was judging me. But then it struck me, why would Noah call taehyung a burglar. Why was my first thought at hearing the word "boyfriend" taehyung?

Have I gotten used to his presence in my mind? I'm constantly thinking about him, was this one of the consequences of my thoughts? Maybe not.

"earth to jungkook, what did you call me for?"

"oh uhh.. I can't meet up tomorrow, just wanted to tell you before you get mad"

"you could've just texted?"

"oh yeah look at my best friend brazenly call out his best friend for interrupting his date, I'm hangin up you curly fry bye" I said, but my original motive was to actually think deeper as I went out to get me my food.

Its been 1 year since that incident and 2 months since I saw him. Am I missing him?

Maybe?

Do I like the way he sometimes teases me? Do I like how even after all these days of rejection he still waits for me? Do i like how he respects me and my space? Do I want him?

Yes, yes, yes, and....

Yes.

What do I do? I think I might have actually fallen in love with him. Is love the right word? It's not too extreme to call my feelings that way.

Am I thinking a lot of him that suddenly I see him infront of my eyes?

No wait why would he be hiding inside an alley?

"what ar— mmph"
