"Thank you, Jungkook," she stammers, but manages to get the words out while still making some sense to him. Of course, she didn't want to look foolish in front of him, but there is nothing she can do. He intimidates her and makes her feel nervous. He is also icy cold and frightening. She fumbles and plays with the tips of her fingers to deflect his intense attention, which is now only on her, while she says, "For helping me."
She turned her head to look at the half-eaten Hamburger she had in her hand that was resting on her lap but she couldn't eat . How is that possible? when he looks at her as though he would like to steal it from her. Is he starving? If so, why doesn't he ask her to give it to him instead of remaining still and sitting there like a handsome stone.
"Hmm" he only hums; nothing else. With his succinct response, she lets out a sigh. She is the one who could make even a stone laugh, therefore it doesn't matter that he is too grouchy to manage. "Wanna eat?" She inquired, extending her hand with the hamburger towards his mouth and waiting for him to respond to it.
He continued to look at her hand and look back to her after a while, which caused her to smile awkwardly as she decided not to annoy him any more. What if he abandons her in the middle of a dense forest and throws her out of the car window? What if she gets eaten by wild creatures or killed by a ghost? 'Okay, let's stop these stupid thoughts' she groaned and thought of taking her hand back to feed herself, but the grip on her wrist prevented her from doing so.
Jungkook grabbed her wrist, before placing it close to his mouth and biting into it while continuing to drive as if nothing had occurred. His face appeared so serene, in contrast to Y/N , who has the unreadable gorgeous colours on her bread cheeks making her appear little more attractive and adorable than she is.
He did consume the hamburger, but it was the side that bothered her. She turned the side she had already eaten before giving it to him for eating because she knew he wouldn't appreciate it more, but the iceberg was carrying another plan. When he tilted his head, and ate the side that was coated in her saliva rather than the clean side.
She hiccups, wanting to completely vanish in the chilly air inside of the car as she thinks of how bad it is. "Why are you holding out? Help me to eat, I wasn't hungry before but now I'm hungry." He asked her, seeking to dissuade her from her ridiculous idea of them "indirectly kissing." She extended her hand to assist him in eating while nodding.
He almost chuckled loudly, watching her sour expression looking at the almost eating hamburger. He was well aware of the thoughts she was getting insider her little, yet smart head. He shook his head, and decided to not tease her anymore, which he was doing without even knowing, from the moment they were in the same car. He watch her continue to give him food and he ate silently, until he was full. She ate the remaining amount she he already ate with him while helping him, so it doesn't matter who eats the leftover.
Reaching the said destination, they both were escorted to the nearest and the only tourist hotel present there to take some rest, as well as settle themselves for upcoming days of medical camp. As they followed the hotel manager, the small yet old vintage came to their sight, it was because by nature surrounding it everywhere their eyes reach. She can see the pond on the left of the hotel, as she decided to come there in the evening, as her work will start from tomorrow.
"Please come, sir ma'am. Let me call someone to show you the way to your rooms" the manger excused himself before calling someone on the landline. Waiting there for not even a minute, a person with the staff uniform came and asked both of you to come with him as you followed, while Jungkook did the same. "This is your room sir" he uttered upon halting before the last door in the hallway, before turning to her "and this is yours" he said once he pointed his hand towards the opposite door to Jungkook's one.
"And your luggages will be here any moment sir, please call us if you want anything" he finishes, as he bowed slightly before turning his heels and walking out of the silent hallway. She looked at his retreating figure, until the door opposite to her ding opened, indicating Jungkook had already opened it and was about to step inside.
" Are you planning on to stay here rest of your camp, Miss Y/N?" He asked in a mockery, before opening the door to his room and stepping inside, and looked at her with his now boring eyes, when she decided to open her door and closed it immediately with a loud thud, which did not get Jungkook flinching to it.
His ruddy eyes keep looking at the door for sometime, when it creaks open slightly, and the adorable head peeks out slightly showing her Bambi, almost round eyes. She smiled sheepishly before forwarding her hand the wave a bye at him, while saying the same before getting lost behind the door, closing it for a second time.
He shook his head to her silliness. To him, it was less to more irritating, and was more to least adorable. He shook his head, when he realised what he was doing, and what he was smiling for. 'dumbass! get hold of yourself" he mummer under his breath, irritated with himself and his unusual behaviour.

It was almost midnight, when Y/N woke up after her hibernation of almost five hours. She has been sleeping since she arrived here. After getting her luggage from the staff member, who came forward to her, she decided to arrange all her clothes in the closet, afterward taking a warm shower to wash away all the tiredness from her body after the long drive here.
As she is done with all the chores, she gets herself into the adorable set of pyjamas and sleeps in it. It was of baby pink colour with strawberry print on it with the pants reaching her mind thigh. It was cold, but she decided to not wear anything warm while sleeping. It's just that she doesn't like it, because she gets hot every now and then, it doesn't matter what the weather is.
She decided to get up from the bed, when her stomach growled with the insufficient food inside it. She sat up on the bed, yawning her sleepiness away. She get out of her bed, leaving the warmth of cosy bed away and slipped into her slippers, before picking her woollen scarf and covered her upper body in it. As she decided to go out and eat something from the cafeteria.
As soon as she stepped out, the cold wind of night brushed through her body, sending shivers down her spinal cord, and the hair body stood still. She decided to not change her outfit, as it was already night and no staff would be there at this time except for the receptionist and the staff inside the kitchen.
She stroll in the empty hallway, stopping near the elevator, and pressing the button to the floor. After sometime, it ding open and she gets inside pressing the button to ground floor, where the cafeteria was situated. She got to know about it, when they arrived there and the manager informed them about it.
Walking some steps further, the empty cafeteria came to her view. It was empty, maybe because it was a self serve check out. She decided to grab something from the vending machine. And finally decided to grab the chocolate donut and strawberry flavoured cupcakes, as well as a packet of orange juice initially.
Sitting to the last end of the large room, she unwrapped it hastily, before taking a bite of the cupcakes and moaning in satisfaction. She savoured it like a hungry rabbit, starving for years. But didn't notice the person looking at her holding onto the mug full of coffee, while sipping it from time to time.
"Ugh" she coughed, when the food got stuck in her throat. She continued to donut, chugging a gulp of orange juice through her burning throat, until the bottle of water was kept on the table she was sitting at, as she soon took it gulping down, not bothering to look at the someone who helped her at this moment.
"Thank you" she utters, still not looking at the person, as she caresses her through to soothe the pain she was feeling near her throat. As she decided not to eat anything soon and sat there silently.
"Keep it slow Y/N. The food ain't going anywhere."
"Are you all right?"
