Still With You

EP 4 : Lie Your Way Out

Jungkook arched an eyebrow once he caught a glimpse of Lisa laughing with an unfamiliar guy. God, I really need to think about this relationship we have, Jungkook thought.

He didn't notice he was staring — glaring, rather — at the two the whole time. Lisa already noticed him standing from a distance, so she waved at him, causing him to snap from his somewhat trance.

He saw how Lisa excused herself and waved goodbye to the guy before she rushed towards him. Just as Jungkook was about to grab Lisa's bag like he always does, Lisa took a step back and shook her head.

"You brought your bazooka and the rest of your rulers and stuff today. I'll carry my bag," Lisa told him.

I should've left my stuff at the car first, he thought. Lisa's stuff was always relatively heavier than Jungkook's on a regular basis since she had to bring actual tools. Although architecture demands to bring a lot of stuff as well — in general a lot more than Lisa's program — they aren't as heavy as hers, and they only bring it from time to time, depending on how they are tasked to bring them.

"Yeah, 'kay," he curtly answered. "And for fuck's sake, this is called a canister, not a bazooka." They started to walk together.

"Still looks like it." She stuck her tongue out. "By the way, I was talking to our shiftee earlier."

"Oh? I hadn't noticed," he sarcastically muttered.

Lisa arched an eyebrow at this. She could tell he was being sarcastic, but he was acting odd. "Yeah, he was asking about the ins and outs of the program. Thought I should guide him for the whole week so he could fully adjust," she continued, paying close to attention to his reaction.

"How thoughtful of you," he remarked, beaming a fake smile. "Should we eat out? I'm not in the mood to cook today."

"Provided it's your treat." Lisa shrugged.

"I'm a broke architecture student right now. I'm not gonna buy you a meal." He will, he's just acting stubborn.

Lisa rolled her eyes. "Fine, dipshit," she muttered. "Should I just have dinner with Bobby, then?"

"Who the hell is Bobby?"

"Shiftee."

"Oh, him."

Lisa shrugged. "Yeah, even asked me if we could have a meal tomorrow, too——" Jungkook started to walk at a faster pace. He's pissed. Lisa thought. Did she really just piss him off? But why? How?

"Yah, walk slower." He didn't.

"Did you not hear me?" He did.

"I turned him down and told him I already have a boyfriend."

Jungkook halted his tracks, turning around to face her. "Could've just said that in the first place."

"What the fuck's your problem?" Lisa rolled her eyes.

"It's not funny." Jungkook looked away, grabbing hold of his canister tighter.

"What's not funny?"

"What you're doing." He looked away.

Lisa didn't want to assume, but she knew her friend all too well. He's jealous, but probably not in a romantic sense. You see, Jungkook's quite possessive. Last time he grew jealous was when she was getting close to another friend of him, Yugyeom. And, his jealousy was in a purely platonic sense.

He really is pissed. Lisa bit her bottom lip at the thought. "I'm doing what, exactly?" Lisa asked, genuinely wanting to know.

"Don't do this on purpose." Jungkook ruffled his hair, obviously frustrated. "This may be just a stunt we pulled but you're still my girlfriend, Lisa. Unless you actually have interest in the guy, I don't like sharing."
