Fourth Lie

Jungkook

Fourth Lie: I am not jealous at all that my best friend is dating a guy

I don't understand the way I am feeling right now, why can't I get over this, it was two years ago and I still dwell on it, I've been a bastard to him since that night, I'm not surprised that he is done with me, I would be, I'm such an asshole. We were only 16 and he was probably just confused yet I made him suffer, making him jealous by dating Miranda, I used her too, I never had real feelings for her, I was just trying to prove to Jin that I like vagina and not dick.

Instead I lost my best friend and used a good girl for my own selfishness, now I feel like shit. I hope Jin's dad doesn't flip out about his shoulder, he was on his way to a basketball scholarship, now that might be gone, it's not like his dad can't afford to send him to college but if Gino can find a reason to beat on his son, he will.

I hate him, ever since we were kids, he's always hit Jin, that's why I feel so protective of him, his dad would punish him and he would sneak out and run over here, I'd hold him in my arms and play with his hair, that's always been our thing, whenever my dad hollered at me Jin would be there holding me, rubbing my hair, it calms me, he calms me, I need my best friend, I realize that now.

I grab my phone and text him, hopefully his number is the same, while I wait for an answer I hear a car horn, I look out my window to see a guy standing outside of Jin's house, holy shit that's the young doctor from last night, I see Jin walk out and get into his car as he holds the door open for him. "What the fuck, I don't think so", I grab my keys and run down to my car.

I drive the same direction they did hopefully being able to see where they went, I catch them at a stoplight and decide to follow them, he pulls in front of a little restaurant and gets out opening the door for Jin, then hands his keys to the valet, that's when I decide I need back up and make a phone call, "get your ass down here, I'll send you the address."

A short time later I finally see Nari walking toward me, "what's going on." "I need you, come on lunch is on me", I say wrapping my arm around her waist and walking into the same restaurant Jin and the hot doctor went to. It's a very nice restaurant and it doesn't take me long to spot the two sitting at a corner table, I already don't like the way the doctor is looking at Jin so I pull Nari with me to their table.

"Hey what a coincidence, we came to eat here too, maybe we could sit together", I say looking at Jin who is shooting daggers at me. "There isn't enough room, Nari could you please find another table for you and Jungkook", Jin says politely but I hear the anger in his voice.

"Uh sure Jin, sorry we didn't mean to interrupt", she pulls me away and we sit at another table but I make sure to sit so I can watch Jin. "Jungkook what the hell is going on, I thought you and Jin hate each other and who is that he's with", Nari asks. "We don't hate each other, I don't know what's going on", I say confused. "Is Jin on a date", she says giggling. I shrug, "that guy does look really into him doesn't he." "Why do I hear something off in that statement, is that why you dragged me here because you are jealous", Nari says.

Seokjin

I cannot believe he showed up here, what is he trying to do, for someone who tortured me for two years he sure is nosy and why is Nari here. Doc Han is gorgeous but he is no Jungkook, that's who I love and that's who I want to be with but I know that will never happen because he will never feel the same.

"So you are a senior in high school", Han asks. "Yea looking forward to graduating and going to college, I want to get out of this town", I say. "Ouch", Han fakes being in pain. "Oh gosh please don't take that wrong, I've wanted to leave long before I met you", I say placing my hand on his.

I look over at Jungkook and see the anger in his eyes, he's the main reason I want to leave and never look back, "would you like to go for ice cream, I have to get ready for work soon but I have time to treat you." "Sure, that sounds good", I say standing up and walking out with Han.

While we walk to the ice cream shop I notice Jungkook and Nari are right behind us, I turn to glare at them and Jungkook winks, I flip him off and wrap my arm around Han's who gladly accepts it. "He likes you ya know, he makes it way to obvious", Han says. I look at him confused, "who are you talking about." "Him", he says pointing to Jungkook, "he wants you, he just doesn't know it." "You are so far off it isn't even funny, that guy has hated me for the past two years because I tried to kiss him, he definitely doesn't want me", I say.

"I beg to differ", he grabs my hand and kisses every finger, "see that look on his face, that's jealousy." Butterflies in my stomach erupt and I don't know if it's because this gorgeous man is kissing me or because he's right, that is jealousy I see, I blush and pull my hand back, "you love him don't you."

I nod slightly, "then you need to help him open his eyes to what's right in front of him and if he still can't see it, I can and would love to date you." I smile and lean across the table to kiss his cheek, "thank you Han." "Let me drop you at home so that I can go to work", he says taking my hand and leading me to the car. Before driving away I see Jungkook watching us leave, anger in his eyes and his hands clenched into tight fists, he's mad and I hope Han is right when he says it's jealousy.
