Never Again | JK FF

Ep 8: The Cafeteria

I felt my mood drop suddenly. I was shocked and didn't know what to say after what had just happened. I had been looking forward to this day for so long, but it turned out to be the complete opposite of what I expected.

The clouds in the sky seemed to get heavier and darker, and the streets felt dull and lifeless as I walked alone on the sidewalk. Even though there was no one else around, his face consumed my thoughts, and I wished I could forget him forever. The more I thought about him, the more my anger grew. My hands clenched into fists, thinking of his presence. I had an overwhelming desire to punch him in the face and scream as loud as I could.

In less than a minute, tears started streaming down my face and it began to rain. At that moment, I felt as though the rain had come to conceal my tears, and it did just that. I gazed up at the dark reddish-golden sky, which seemed to be comforting me by sending down it's tiny droplets to keep me company. I longed to let out a piercing scream, to rid myself of the unbearable agony that felt like a disease slowly taking over my body.

While I was sunk in that unavoidable event that had just occurred, I heard horn sounds behind me, blaring it's way in. The headlights fell upon the wet road, illuminating the path. The car halted beside me and the window glass was lowered. He stepped out of the car, calling out my name.

"Y/n, what are you doing here? I've been looking for you everywhere. It's raining, let's get in the car." He pulled me close to him and shielded me from the rain with his body. Jungkook took off his coat and covered my head to keep me from getting wet.

"Jun-Jungkook." As soon as I realized he was there, I hugged him tightly. The pain was killing me slowly, and I couldn't bear it anymore. He looked confused and startled for a minute, probably didn't see it coming.

"Y/n-ah, what happened?" I could see the anxiety in his eyes, but I didn't want him to worry about me or spoil his mood.

"Nothing. I just missed you. I missed you so much." I hugged him again and closed my eyes tightly to control my tears.

"Is it?" he asked. I responded with a hum and looked at him. He was smirking at my response. I could have hugged him forever, but he was getting wet in the rain. I didn't want him to get sick.

"Let's get into the car first. You're getting wet." I said. We quickly got into the car, but I was completely soaked. My hair was a mess and my dress was drenched and cold.

"You're completely wet. Take this," he said, handing me his hand towel to dry off. However, he was the one who needed it.

"You first." I said, trying to wipe the water off of his head. But he stopped me and took the towel from my hands. He gently rubbed my soaked hair, like a mother drying her baby. His eyes showed pure care for me. I knew he was controlling his feelings for me.

But all I could do was stare back awkwardly. I still feel embarrassed about it now. I acted so foolishly!

I can feel my heart falling for him slowly. The way he cares, the way he feels for me, the way he treats me, and mainly, the way he makes me feel comfortable when I'm around him just makes me go insane for him.

Jungkook lowered the towel and looked at me. To be precise, stared at me. "What?" I asked him with a soft tone. He placed his hand on my jaw as his thumb caressed my cheeks softly. For a moment, he spoke nothing. Just silence. But then, he folded his lips inward closed his eyes for a moment, and asked, "You cried, right?"

I was startled by his question. I know he knew about me more than I know myself. But, I was shocked to see him guessing my mood so easily. "What? N-no." I tried to turn towards the other side to avoid contact with his eyes. But I could still able to see the confidence in his eyes over his own words. So clear like crystal.
