A Blast From The Past (Jungkook FF 21+)

chapter 21

FLASHBACK

Y/n pov

I was looking around, trying to spot him when finally, our eyes met. He winked at me before disappearing into the crowd, amidst other students. I wondered if he really was trying to get to Namjoon's nerves due to a specific reason or messing around just for fun. I didn't want to think about him more than it was necessary but it seemed I couldn't entirely shake him off, either. His gorgeous figure was backed up by his alluring personality and, this wasn't good news to anyone who was trying to avoid his charms. That first day, I had laughed out at his nickname but now, I was starting to get it, at my own expense.
In that moment, I felt the sudden need to hold on to Namjoon's arm, afraid of the dark thoughts that were starting to cloud my mind.
"Everything okay?" He asked, staring at me, adorably, showing off his cute dimples.
"Everything is good in the world when you're with me." I placed a butterfly kiss on his shoulder, before resting my head on it.
"What is with you today?!" He asked. "You're unusually clingy. Not that I'm complaining." He immediately got defensive.
"I just missed you, that's all. Do I need a reason to be clingy to my boyfriend?" I said, moodily, pretending to be butthurt by what he just said.
"Not at all, babe!" He put his arm around my shoulder and kept it there until we reached the parking lot.
After an exhausting day, I finally made it home. The fact that there was no one around at this time of the day, was really comforting. I was in no mood to get interrogated on university matters. I went straight to my bedroom and, lazily, threw the bag on the chair. Then, after putting on some music, I laid on the bed, thinking about today's events. I had just placed the phone on my nightstand when, I heard a beep sound. I smiled, thinking it was Namjoon. Little did I know...
"I hope he didn't give you a hard time because of me, Milady."
He was the last person I was expecting a text from.
"Who dis?" I chuckled to myself, wanting to mess up with him.
"Your next boyfriend?!" He answered, followed by a devil emoji.
"I thought we were keeping our relationship professional, Sir."
"Are you afraid your boyfriend might find out I've been texting you?" Oh, this bastard, he thinks he got me cornered.
"He's my boyfriend, not my owner. And, he trusts me, completely. Don't worry about us, we'll be fine." I needed to put some boundaries.
"It didn't look like that this morning, though." His persistence was something else.
"Jungkook, do you need to ask me anything university related?" Hopefully, this will put things into perspective.
"There's a Polo game tomorrow. I wondered if you would be coming to cheer on us." He texted back.
"I always watch the game. I may have missed a few lately but, always cheering on for TaeTae and Jiminie." I was actually curious what he would answer.
"Why you gotta be so rude. Don't you know I'm human, too..." The bastard managed to make me smile.
"Dang, I love that song." Now it'll get stuck in my head all evening, thanks to him.
"I do, too." Followed by a smiley face emoji.
"So, what else do you like?" He asked and, we ended up talking for hours. He told me a bit about himself and why he had to get back from the States. He told me how lonely he got there and that getting back to South Korea, despite the reason behind it, was actually comforting. It was him who did most of the talking. I would have never taken him for the chatty type, based on the first impression. He was actually very funny and easygoing. The sound of the keys opening the front door, made me realize it was already dark outside.
"Erm... Jungkook, I have to go." I texted and hit send.
"After pouring my heart out to you, for hours, I think it's safe to say you have earned the privilege to call me Kookie." He texted back.
"I didn't know it was a privilege." I was smiling at my phone, like a lunatic.
"Believe it or not, it is." He replied."The only people who call me that are my family, Taehyung and now, you." I didn't know what to say to that. It was more than I expected.
"See you tomorrow at the game, then?! I hope you cheer for me, too." He finally hit send, after the "writing..." sign that had been going on for ages.
"Will see about that." Not so fast, Jeon.
"You have a whole army of women cheering on you, anyway. What's one more?!" I felt the need to tease him, after what I witnessed this morning in class.
"I've heard the rumors going around about me. But, despite what everyone might think, I'm a one woman man. I will show you." He sounded serious again.
"You don't have to show me anything. I'm no one to you." I didn't like where things were going. I was feeling way too comfortable around him.
"What if I want you to be someone? Goodnight, Y/n." He went offline, not waiting for me to reply back.

JK pov

I, purposefully, didn't give her a chance to reply back. She would probably pull out the boyfriend card. As if I didn't already know. I put the phone back on my desk but the thought of her couldn't leave my mind to rest. I noticed her immediately, the day we lost the Polo game. I had just left the field and was headed towards the changing rooms. And there she was, all giggly and full of life. So beautiful, even from a distance. Getting closer, I could appreciate her fair skin and dark black hair. Her amber eyes and heart shaped lips were the crown jewels to an already perfect face. God help me cause, up close, she was ravishing. I had to know her, at any cost. Under the pretense of talking to Taehyung, I got closer to the three of them, wanting to greet them casually. When I saw her turn around and face me, I got too nervous and words got stuck in my throat. I didn't know how to explain it but, all of a sudden, I felt a pang of jealousy seeing her smile at Namjoon, like that. Possessively, I even thought, it was me she should be smiling at. In that moment, I knew she had to be mine.
