Apart from My Job (JK FANFIC)

Ch 12 | Pt 3: Someone

I was turning away to go out of the makeup room since my work was already done and I just had to sit around until the shoot was done but a voice, a cold and harsh voice vibrated from my ears to my stomach "Moonbyul, do my makeup. I like your makeup better." then he slowly whispered but my ears could catch the crippled words "Anyways it will be better for your future." 

My eyes widened at his words. I couldn't believe it was his words. It wasn't the warm Jungkook she had always known. Instead, it was a cold and hurt Jungkook who was a stranger to her. She couldn't believe his huge character change. It felt like the Jungkook from the fan fic she had read last night when she was missing him.

Seo Hee was frozen in her place, confused about what she should do. I gather all my confidence and turn around and say, dead voice "Seo Hee, you can have some rest. I'll do his makeup." She just nods and trots away. I steadily walk up to him, looking straight into his black eyes which just glared at me brutally.

The whole process was soundless. None of us groaned a word. I looked so cruel, but only God knew how nervous and anxious I was. My hands were literally shaking, I barely managed to keep them straight. My breath was shaky. But I kept it silent. Every moment I thought "He would say something now. He would say something right now." but instead he kept his lips shut and decided to only glare into my eyes beastfully. I didn't have the energy to match my eyes with his. So I just decided to give makeup my full attention. What a coincidence it was that his expressions and makeup matched. Both were themed: COLD.

The painfully long makeup session came to an end when Secretary Kim called out the members for the shoot. Thank you, Secretary Kim Yoon-Seo, my one, and only eternal savior. I sighed under my breath.

Thank goodness, I was done with my makeup and putting a few touches here and there. But my brushes were still embracing his skin, and who other than me was holding it? His cold gaze drops to my hands. I was too focused on looking at my savior who was leaving the room when he brutally shook off my hand and stood up. My eyes felt hazy and misty when he did it. He shook me off so easily with the same hands he used to embrace me with. I was sadly looking down at my feet. He noticed my cloudy eyes but ignored them and went on his way, to the shoot.

I was stuck right there, in my place for a few more moments, when I moved to look around that everyone in the room had already left and I was all alone. Hence I decided to stay in the makeup room since I couldn't bear seeing him any longer. I was so afraid that my eyes would refuse to hold the tears and make them gush like a waterfall right in front of everyone to embarrass my pitiful self.

The shoot went on for hours. There were times when I had to leave the comfort of my makeup room to do makeup touches on all the members and when I said all the members, I even meant Jungkook. The look we shared while doing the touches was pretty harsh and COLD. Lucky me, it only lasted for a few seconds.

They were shooting an episode for their famous reality show 'RUN BTS'. It was sadly funny to see how he would smile and laugh whenever the camera turned on like he didn't care about me, his duality. The only thing I didn't know was his frown the moment after the camera turned off.

Everyone's shoot ended earlier than Jungkook. So they left early. It was past 7 and Jungkook's shoot was still going on. Most of the staff had left, including Seo Hee. The makeup room was dark with only one of the lights glowing. Yes, I'm concerned about global warming and we need to save energy.

I sensed that the lights of the shooting room were turning off and easily assumed that now everyone was leaving with only the voices in my background. So I decided that I should also leave now and started packing my makeup stuff in my purse.

It was taking quite a while for packing my stuff given that I had 100+ makeup brushes and 30+ palettes. The silence in my background was telling me that everyone had left.

But then a sudden cold voice echoed "So, are you enjoying?" I froze in my place, not daring to look back since I already knew who it was. It was Jungkook.

"I'm pretty sure you are enjoying. After everything we had done, I had even kissed you. I foolishly thought that you genuinely loved me. Do you know, you were the first person to ever kiss me, the Jeon Jungkook. You were my first love. Yet you enjoy seeing me suffer." I felt sudden numbness on my cheeks. I refused to turn around or to speak. My eyes had finally given up. It was so heartbreaking to hear those words coming from Jungkook.

"Do you think only y-you have a career?" His words started breaking. I heard panting and sobbing from the back of my head. "I-I also have a car-reer. I was ready to give up on all this for- for yo-you. Do you think only you will suffer from this? N-no you are so-so wrong. I w-would have suffered so much more than you. I could lose my entire fame, my entire career because of you. I know everyone would hate me if I was found dating you. I was ready to sacrifice it all for you. You don't even know that and you were just ready to make me suffer. You didn't even-" The limit was crossed. I couldn't hold it in anymore. Neither my tears nor my words.

I turn around and scream my aching heart "I KNOW! Do you think I don't know? I do know Jeon Jungkook. I know it all. All the sacrifices you would have to make. But you don't know two things: first, that I love you. I love you t-too much and secondly, I know all the hate you'll get, we'll get. I know that I can destroy you with j-just three words: 'I'm dating Jeon Jungkook.' And then every human being in this world will hate you. But y-you don't know, how much you will suffer. This suffering is better than the suffering you will receive in the future. I could've never known how much you'll suffer if Namjoon Oppa hadn't told me. But I love you and that's why I have to leave you and-" "Namjoon Hyung?" my words halted when I realized the mistake I had made. Shit.

He grabbed my arms with surprise and asked "What did Namjoon Hyung say?" My numb eyes which were still draining parted away from his. My lips were dry. I slammed my lips together and slowly opened them to say "that-"

Jungkook might try to look strong from the outside but he will be broken from the inside. It took us 9 years to come here. Last time when all the hate was directed at Jungkook, he looked strong in front of us but cried to bed every night. If they decide to fire Jungkook, the entire group will deteriorate. Everyone will hate each member of the group almost as much as Jungkook. They all will think us partly responsible for your dating. And you will become the most hated woman not only in Korea but in the world. So make your decision well.

I wanted to say it all, but I couldn't betray Namjoon Oppa anymore. So, the words didn't come out of my mouth. "I knew it! I knew it was Namjoon Hyung," he said with dark eyes which spoke of anger and gritting teeth. He harshly left me and jerkily slammed the door open, running out. "Jungkook!" I yelled but it was too late. He already went away and I knew where he was off to.

I couldn't breathe anymore. It felt suffocating to stay there. I exactly knew where I needed to be. I needed to be at my magic shop.

Someone was constantly ringing the door and knocking on it or I would frame as SLAMMING the door continuously. Yoongi Oppa turned to open it "Yah! Why are you-" but before he could complete it, he saw Jungkook who already raced towards the living room. Everyone was in the living room, looking shockingly at Jungkook's intimidating character.

He glared around the living room to find Namjoon Oppa who was casually seated on the couch. "What happ-" Namjoon Oppa was about to ask as he stood from the couch but Jungkook pulled his collar and slammed him on the wall "HOW DARE YOU?"

Author's Note:

I'm so sorry that I'm posting the chapters so late. I'm having exams and some other stuff. I'll try to be more consistent. Whoever is still reading this fanfic, thank you sooooo much. You guys give me so much motivation to keep on writing and not just quit. I know, this chapter is damn long, and it takes an ample amount of time to write this + I'm bit of an overthinker and tend to overthink my stories. So, do you like Jungkook's cold version or the warm version? Do tell in the comments :)
