Just Roommates

7.

Jennie pick up a bag of carrots and toss them into her cart.

"Hey, what do you think you're doing?" Jungkook asked.

"Carrots?"

"They were at the front of the aisle." He says

"So?" She asked confused.

" pick the ones at the very back. They are the freshest, with the longest shelf life."

"Okay, Mr- know- it- all."

"Th-Thanks?" She place the carrots back begrudgingly and reach to the back to pick out a fresh bag.

"These?" She asked him.

"Yes! Perfect." He directs his killer smile at her and just like that, the slight annoyance that she felt earlier simply evaporates into thin air.

" it's unfair how a single smile from him can have that effect on me.."

" and you picked organic. Nice choice."

" I figure they're healthiest.." Jennie got interrupted by the sudden voice coming from behind.

"Sorry to butt in."

Jennie and jungkook both turn around to find an older woman looking straight at Jennie.

"Would you mind grabbing me an avocado from the top shelf?" She requested Jennie but Jung kook reaches for an avocado and hands it to the lady.

"Here you go" he says handing the avocado.

"Thank you so much." The older woman turns to leave, but then stops, and smiles at Jennie and jungkook. 

"And I might say, what a handsome couple you make!" She says with a smile. Jennie freeze at her spot, not sure what to say or do.

"He's so charming and a real gentleman. He's a real catch; you are one lucky young lady."

"Thank you. We,uh..."she again got cut by jungkook.

"Actually, I'm the lucky one over here. I'm going to go find the peas, dear." He says.

"We're not dating, don't ..." jungkook abandons her with the old lady.

"He's just leaving me?!!"

"Oh, sorry! It's just the way you look at him." The old woman said. Now she is bright as a beet, and she suddenly feel glad that jungkook left the aisle.

" I just think you would look so beautiful together. My Yunjin met her husband around your age.." Jennie can tell this is going to be a long story. She almost jump for joy when her phone starts ringing.

"I'm really sorry mam, I have to get this."

"Well, I just wanted to say you two make a gorgeous couple..of people."

"Well, thank you." She hung up the phone and finds out that Jungkook picking through the jars of spices.

"You're welcome" he says to Jennie coming towards her.

"What? I would've kept talking to that nice old lady."

"Yes, and I saved to from that fate. So, I say agin, you're welcome." She roll her eyes and try to see exasperated by jungkook, but can't stop smiling.

"I'll go grab my lemon extract and then we can go." He suggested.

"That's sounds good."

"By the way would you like to take a walk with me after this? I want to stop by and see friend of mine."
