13. The Date

My eyes fluttered open when I felt something soft against me. I looked beside to see jungkook snuggling his face in the crook of my neck as his hands were wrapped around my waist and our legs entangled together with each other. I picked up my phone from the side table to check the time, and it showed 7:00 am. I'm not at all a morning person but last night's incident just made me lose my mind, it was already 2 in the morning when I came back on the bed to sleep.

Something isn't feeling right. At first felt it when Hyun asked me out earlier, at that time I thought maybe it was because of my confused feelings for him, but it was what I wanted all along right? Still I don't know what to do. I obviously said yes but just for a date today, not the girlfriend thingy. I need time specially when right now I'm feeling all right in the arms of this man.

Since the time we returned from the museum, I was sure that I'll ask jungkook to simply drop this plan because by then I was convinced that love can't be forced. Ever and I was ready to let go of Hyun for good ofcourse but right now I'm confused. Being with jungkook is all different from being with Hyun. I can't explain it in words but it is. And now with him beside me, I can't help but feel guilt. What if I've developed some romantic feelings for him. I don't know anything. I can't even understand myself right now. I haven't even told him about the Hyun thing. But I need to, even if I don't want to. Earlier I wanted to decline his offer right then and there and then confess to jungkook that I might feel something for him too. But then I just accepted his offer of date, I want to give this thing a chance. Anyway, jungkook will be happy to know this, he won't have to pretend anymore being my fake boyfriend. And I'm more than sure that there ain't any way he even thinks of liking me.

It's all just so complicated.

Shooking all these thoughts Outta my head, managed to pull myself away from his hold and went to take a bath. I'm gonna enjoy today, a lot. Afterall it's our last day in Italy.

Jungkook's P.o.V.

I was tying my shoe laces, to head out of the penthouse as it's our last day in here. I want to surprise Yn by taking her to the Royal Center for a lunch date, obviously as friends because I know she won't agree if I tell her that I want to take her as my date. She always wanted to come here. And with all that's going on I guess she needs a lil celebration. Although I can see that she's trying her best to move on and leave it all behind, I know it's not that easy.

I saw her standing in front of the mirror, wearing a floral mid thigh length dress, admiring herself. She looks awfully happy today.

It feels so good to see her all happy once again, for over a week she just smiled. A smile which never reached her eyes. Now that she's here it looks like her. Actual , cheerful and loud Yn.

" You're looking beautiful."

"Huh?" She asked looking at me through the mirror.

"You were waiting for mirror's comment on your look right. I did it instead. I know you're dumb yn but atleast you should know that mirror don't speak."

"Jungkook!" She exclaimed.

Cute.

"Well you're so happy today"

"So, am I not allowed to be happy Mr.?"

" Now I didn't meant it like that. I'm just asking girl".

" I haven't told you right?"

"I guess no. What is it about" I asked curiously walking to stand behind her as she talked through the mirror.

"I have a date. "

You have a what?

"What?" I mean how? Why? With whom?

Calm yourself down jungkook, I told myself.

"So, actually last night Hyun met me in the balcony. It was during night and I went there to fresh up my mind when he came. He admitted that he was jealous seeing me with you." She told now sitting on the couch and held my hand to make me sit beside her as well.

It was expected. It's all why we did it in the first place. To make him jealous. I knew it would happen. But it still hurts to know this.

"And?" I asked. I know there's more.

"And he asked me to be his girlfriend. I was shocked jungkook. I was happy obviously. It's what I've always wanted. It's why you came up with the plan to make him jealous, although we didn't even do anything to that extent but I guess just seeing us together, affected him." She paused to look at me.

"So? What did you say?"

Please don't tell me you said yes.

" After he asked me out, I was definitely happy. It was as if the universe wanted me to know that it answered all my prayers. But you know what? I didn't felt right. At all kook. It was as if something was missing. I spent the whole time, thinking about it. Just when I was thinking I could move on, he again came up. So, I denied. But then after some talk we agreed to go on a date today and see if the things will work out. I'm happy anyway. But there's more to this. I don't know how will you react after knowing this."

"What is it that you think I'm gonna react unexpectedly?"I asked.

"I.. I think I might..
Umm nothing. Actual I was thinking If you could drop me there. Like it's our last day and we can grab something on the way y'know. Even after the lunch we can go somewhere nice before flying back."

I know she's hiding something as she fidgeted with her fingers all the time saying that, it's a habit of her whenever she's nervous or is lying. But I'm not gonna push her. Hyun finally asked her out and they might get together, even if she doesn't believe so.

I don't know how or what to feel.

The only thing I can feel is emptiness.

I wanted to spend my last day here with her but I guess it's not acceptable to the divine.

"I'd love to accompany you yn but believe me I have to join Taehyung Hyung today. He's meeting some of his cousin here in Italy. But if you need anything don't even think twice, I'm just a call away"

I have nowhere to go today, but I told her the opposite.
I don't have the courage to take her to her love. I'm selfish. Selfish enough to hurt her by declining her. If she thinks I haven't noticed the fall of her smile then she's wrong. Very wrong.

"Oh no problem. I should leave anyway. Bye Kook." She said looking at the mirror one last time, before heading to the door.

She stopped right before, and came back to me.

"Take Care!" She said after pecking my cheek and ran away, leaving me starstrucked.

Jesus! I touched my cheeck staying frozen for some minutes. It's not going to be this easy.

I flopped down on the bed as I took out my phone to scroll through.
