"I don't think you should take it as something big." My friend, Min told me.
After Jungkook pulled me close to him and kissed me without a warning, my feelings for him had grown and I didn't hesitate to tell Min about it.
Jungkook and I had something going on together, and I'm pretty sure everyone in our circle knows it too, they just think it's unnecessary to mention or talk about it.
We would often hug and hold hands, he would sometimes kiss my forehead or cheek, but we would ignore the more than friendly gestures. I was scared to ask him if he actually likes me since he does it to other girls too.
Now that his lips had touched mine, I wonder if I should actually confess to him. And in Min's opinion, I shouldn't.
"He does all of those lovey-dovey stuff to other girls too." She rolled her eyes, "I'm pretty sure he was just bored."
My heart kind of sank when Min said those words. My mind started to get worked up, was he really bored? I mean, he wouldn't just kiss someone out of boredom, right?
But at the same time I think he would. Because of his personality, maybe he would.
Min let out a sigh as she slumped on the grey colored couch in the living room, resting her feet on the table that was placed next to it, "Sorry, I didn't mean to say it in a mean way, but it's true."
"I guess you're right." I said in a quiet voice, "Maybe I should stop letting him do those things to me." I said as I looked down at my hand that was resting on my lap.
"Good choice." Min said with something I couldn't register in her voice. Since I was sitting at the kitchen island and she was flipping on the couch, I could only hear her voice, not her facial expressions.
"I feel like he's just doing it out of boredom, don't let it get to you. You should stop talking to him before he hurts you." She told me.
I was now disgusted with myself. I always thought he did those things because he really wanted to, or at least he did it because deep down he still has something for me. But I guess I was wrong.
"So what did he say after he kissed you?" Min asked as she walked to where I was sitting, a bag of potato chips in her hands.
"Uh.. nothing, he just smiled and walked away." I explained to her and grabbed a handful of chips from the bag she was holding.
"Heh. You should really listen to me. As your best friend, I think it's best that you distance yourself away from that boy." She said.
"Yeah... I will." I promised her.
She stuffed a handful of chips into her mouth and nodded eagerly while chewing, agreeing with me. But then her eyes widened and she started beating on her chest, coughing. The pieces of chewed up potato chips went flying everywhere as she tried to keep herself from choking to death.
I gasped and patted her back. I ran to the fridge and got out a bottle of water, handing it to her. She immediately drank the water and smiled at me in relief when she slammed the plastic bottle down.
"You're nasty."

The next day was a normal, boring day. Min talked to me about how I should react if Jungkook start to notice and ask me why I ignored him. I took her advice and promised her that I wouldn't get hurt.
But as I was stuffing my books in my locker to get ready for lunch, I felt a pair of familiar arms wrap themselves around my waist, his chin rested on my shoulder lazily and I froze. I didn't know what to do. My heart rammed against my chest and my palms became sweaty.
