A month since I had broken up with Bogum, the shoot was slowly coming to an end and today I'd be moving into my new apartment. It was one-thirty pm and Jungkook would be coming at two to help me load the car and then unpack in my new home.
I finally heard the knock on the door I had been waiting for and threw myself in his arms.
"Woah, am I late or something?"
I felt his chest vibrate as he laughed and shook my head no.
"I'm just happy to see you" His hair still smelled like coconut and vanilla from his conditioner, the same one he used since high school.
"Are you ready to move?" Jungkook asked me with a cheeky grin.
"So ready, let's go!"
With the help of the hotel staff, we filled my car that was in the underground basement. I paid for my stay and accepted a big gift basket from the hotel manager before getting in the car with Jungkook and driving away.
My new apartment wasn't in the center of the city like Bogum's but wasn't too far away either, I had been hesitating between two apartment and ended up choosing the one that was closest to Jungkook's house. It didn't take us long to unpack the boxes which were filled mostly with my clothes, and since the place came with the furniture we were done by three-thirty.
"Ready to start your new life?" I looked at Jungkook who was sitting next to me on the couch and leaned my body next to his.
"I can't wait, actually" My eyes trailed around the apartment, the walls were beige which I really enjoyed after Bogum's grey walls.
Most of the furniture was wooden and not metallic or plastic, I had bought a some flowers and plants a few days ago and with Jungkook we had placed the picture frames I had brought from my home back in Busan but hadn't put out in my old apartment. Now I could see photos of me and the boys or me and my family, there was also a bowl of fruit on the dining room table and various ceramic bowls my mother had made, scattered around the apartment.
"So, what do you want to do for the rest of the day?"
"I just want to hang around with you"
"Hmm" I felt Jungkook's hand wrap around my head as his fingers played with my hair. I closed my eyes and felt him kiss my temple, still playing with my hair.
Spending an entire afternoon not doing anything with your loved one was something I longed to do, but with Bogum's schedule and lifestyle, I never really got it. It seemed he didn't value those moments the same way I did, so when Jungkook didn't reject my suggestion, I knew I had made the right choice.
"When word gets out that Bogum and I broke up, the media is going to start speculating and if or when they find out that you and I are dating, it'll only get worse. Are you sure you want to go through with this?"
"I don't care about what they say or think, I know the truth"
I closed my eyes, as my head rested on his shoulders.
"They may dig up dirt on you, I wouldn't want that to hurt your career..."
"It won't and even if it did, it'll be fine. Don't worry about me" Jungkook's arm came to wrap around me, and the feeling that ran through my body was unlike any other feeling I'd felt in my life. I was not only at ease in someone's arms, no, it was as if this was my place, where I always should have been.
The first times on set after getting together with Jungkook were a bit weird, I didn't know how to react or be around him and after one week of officially dating (official just between us), I still didn't know. For a strange reason, news of my break up with Bogum still hadn't hit the industry, I was pretty sure it was because Bogum and I had always been a lowkey couple and with our different schedules, our appearance in public together were rare.
