10,000 Hours (Jeon Jungkook)

Chapter Fourteen

Jeon Jungkook

Jungkook scratched his head before pulling the covers off of his body, he didn't get much sleep last night. He kept thinking about what Celeste said, he was mad at himself for not living in the real world. His image and fame was blocking a lot of things he wanted to experience in life. He shook his head before doing his morning routine, once he was finished he decided to go outside where the work out equipment was. He loved working out especially if something was on his mind, he heard the door opened and seen Namjoon come outside.

"Good morning." He said.

"Morning." Jungkook responded.

"You ok?" Namjoon asked.

"Yeah, I'm just in my own head." He mumbled lifting the weight.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Namjoon asked.

"I wish I could turn off my fame." He said placing the weight down.

Namjoon looked at him.

"What happened?" He asked.

"So yesterday after Celeste came from the hospital, she told me Imani extended there trip for two more weeks." Jungkook said.

"Ok, Isn't that a good thing?" Namjoon asked.

"It is, but she wants to see Korea and go places...in public." He said.

"Ohhhhh." Namjoon nodded.

"If I step out with her, army would have a fucking fit." He mumbled.

"That is true, this is difficult but Do you like Celeste?" Namjoon asked as he began doing pull ups.

"I do." He nodded.

"I knew it, but when it comes down to it your mental health and happiness comes first. We love army but...if being with Celeste or spending time with her is what makes you happy don't let them stop you." He explained.

"I just want her and I to take it slow you know." Jungkook said.

"Then do that, whatever pace you guys move just make sure it's something you both want." He said.

Jungkook nodded as they continued exercising, Namjoon was right, he made a mental note to talk to Celeste when he see's her.

Celeste Yang

Celeste sighed as she took her compression gloves off, she rubbed her eyes and noticed Imani wasn't in the room before going to the bathroom. She handled her business before going down stairs, she seen Hoseok and Jin on the sofa playing video games and Imani, Taehyung and Namjoon outside. She went to the kitchen and seen Yoongi and Jungkook, she went to the fridge and grabbed a water bottle.

"Good morning." She said sitting at the Island.

"Good morning." Yoongi said.

Jungkook gave Yoongi a look before he got the message and left them alone.

"Good morning." Jungkook said.

"Morning." Celeste mumbled.

"I'm sorry I was giving you the cold shoulder, been in my own head." He said.

Celeste smiled before embracing him in a hug, Jungkook smiled and hugged her back.

"It's fine but you owe me snacks." She mumbled into his chest.
