SMITTEN || J.JK

17| Possessive

After hustling across the crowd, we manage to find places with the perfect vision of the court which consists of the players standing on the both sides who practice stretches but the other side doesn't catch my attention as my gaze is firm on the girl in a black set."I'm gonna say it once again.If you guys are simply here for the sake of sympathy, you can get your ass back in class or some other arena, she doesn't need anyone's sympathy.",I lick my lips to lay my belief and hear scrambled responses.

"I told you.This y/n girl is fun to be around that's why I'm here.",Donghyun adjusts the sign-board on his lap, the sharp cardboard hitting jaesung's chest who lets out a growl punctuated with a string of swears."I've only known her through you but I'm interested to see how she'll play.",He gives his honest opinion which makes me shift my pupils onto the person who has set his eyes on y/n like a goddamn hawk."Here to cheer for her.",Mingyu motions his plastic hand clapper in the air so I give him a nod before getting hold of my board.I don't know why I'm sensing my hands turning clammy and my heartbeat beating in my throat. Oddly enough, it feels like I'm nervous for both myself and y/n so I redirect my gaze to my friends which ridicules me.

Jaesung munches on crisps with his elbows propped on a board which also bears the weight of donghyun's arms.It certainly wasn't my idea to design cheering boards for her and bring supplies that would attract onlookers but this eases the tension trapped inside me.I have never decked up so much to cheer someone, not even for junghee's dance competitions and she's going to think I'm bizarre for doing this for a girl that I didn't even bother knowing much a month ago but I'm enough filled with anticipation to look forward to her reaction and match rather than regretting my decisions.

"Don't we look like a little fanclub for your girlie over there?",Donghyun snickers beside me but I forsake his tease, throwing him a disdainful glare."Seriously, first you beat a guy for her and then you bring these boards to cheer her on. If I didn't know you well, I would've thought you're falling for her.",Another asshole dares to open his mouth to comment on my relationship with her when they can't even measure what I feel for her. I don't allow myself to lose hold of my mind considering how they're tracking my actions based on my past encounters but this engenders a discomfort inside me.

There's no way I'm going to put her in the same category as those girls who drop their panties if I merely look in their direction, who have no sense of other's emotions and treat me like some machine who fucks without emotions. They're wholly wrong about the latter part. I've hooked up with two or three girls apart from danbi who seemed decent but none of them has matched up the level of comfort and thrill that y/n engenders inside me. Perhaps it's the way she's considerate about me or the way she reacts around me, I feel myself involuntarily pulled by tingles and heat altogether in her presence and it's been so long since I've felt these types of sparks in my body.

My gaze narrows on the sidelines of the court where both the players join for the toss, my peripheral vision catching Donghyun and Jaesung staring at y/n with a strange gleam in their eyes, almost checking her out." Close your eyes before I gouge them out.",Their heads swivel at me instantaneously upon my warning and jaesung cracks his lips into a forced smile."What? She's hot.", He's poor in catching the hints of knowing when to shut the fuck up.

There's no denying that she's hot, desirable at the most but that doesn't give him the license to pass her through the perverted scanner installed in his eyes."I'm hot, too.Check me out all you want dude but don't look at her like you're fucked up in your head.",I don't want to fall into this vicious cycle of jealousy but this arouses a sting in the back of my spine and I can't help hating every stare that is subjected to her like she's yet another easy girl to get their hands on.

"Alright, I get it but you're going to need to look around and see the guys in the other row. They're already fucking her in their heads.",he opens his mouth and flames my chest and vexation coats my throat. My eyes shoot in the opposite direction to zero on the said assholes and when they clamp down on their expressions, I feel the aggravation in my veins. I know these guys like the back of my hands, they're friends of Joon-su and belong to the same hell as him. My eyes don't stir and I watch them sharing sneers and pointing fingers in y/n's direction to utter words that are full of boasting and sexualizing her. It takes superhuman strength to not rake a hand through my hair and fist a punch at them, only the thought of her evading me from creating a scene here until one of them catches my persistent look on them.
