Finally, Home.

Jungkook PoV

It's the weekend again, We have been texting non-stop. I haven't had these bizarre and meaningful conversations with someone in a long time. Today we are finally meeting for our class. Which has been postponed by us for drinking sessions, food sessions and just no mood sessions. We meet almost daily, just when our schedules allow. I feel so comfortable with her.

Today is my first English class, with her.
It's almost 9 pm, on Friday.
I hear my doorbell,
And there she is, looking tired but has a smile on.
"Hey, You came from work right now?"
She fake cries, "Yeah, I am so tired." And comes in and sits on the couch. "Oh hello, Sorry I forgot."
I smile, "Works tough?"
"Nah, just too much. What about you? How was your day?"
"I just came home 10 minutes before you. Practice is pretty good actually, we are in the process of so many things..."
Her eyes shine bright, and she asks, "As?"
I scoff, "You aren't getting a spoiler, just because you are my friend."
She sighs, "Then what's the use."
I laugh, "It's just weird I have known you for a month or so, but it feels like years."
She says, "I fucking know right! Agh, how can you look like this after work?"
I look at her, "Look how?"
She says, "You know like you are like straight outta pages, you are seriously so handsome!"
"That's uncalled for." trying to hide my expression.
"I am just saying what's true. You genuinely look super good or maybe I am biased, Idk. But I am jealous."
I laugh, "If it makes you feel any better, If we could exchange our bodies, I would give you mine."
She makes a rather disgusting expression, "Nope, I cannot be a man, ugh."
I am speechless. "What?"
She smiles, "Umm, What I meant was I like being a woman, so even if I can be you, no. Like why would I trade my womanhood just to be handsome? Hypothetically."
A smile forms on my face, I find her aggressive expressions and opinions adorable. If I could, I would keep on listening to her. They are so different. And it is fun teasing her.
"So I am just handsome?"
She stands up and starts walking. She is lowkey freaking out, " No! No, this is not what I meant. You are so much more, you are gentle, you have the cutest replies, you are patient, and you are a lot lot more than a handsome face. But if we change, it will just be your body. Agh, I did not mean to objectify..."
Oh. It feels warm.
I laugh, " I get that, I completely understand."
"Oh" and she sighs
"Should we start our lesson?"
She exclaims, "We should!"

And the english lesson began. Contrary to my belief, she was tougher than my previous teachers. Her teacher mode in layman's terms would be 'Scary'
After spending an hour to keep up with her, I sit back and declare, "Now I am tired. I am so done for the day!"
She replies, "But there are 2 more pages to go — we have to finish our target atleast."
I cut her off, "No buts, I just cannot."
"But..."
I say, "No please. Next time, we can do this next weekend."
It is as if she was waiting for me to say that, she sighs, "Okay. Even I couldn't sit straight any longer. But I want to complete the target set."
And she is now lying on the couch. Cute.
I laugh, "Is completing your task so important?"
"It gives me clarity, I need to know what and where and how. Planning keeps me sane."
"It's adorable." I blurt out. Because it is.
"You are first person to say that, I have been told it's annoying. But anyways I cannot help it." She smiles.
Who said it was annoying? Why would, I mean It is adorable. Ugh, I am kind off pissed now.
She looks at me and says, "Jungkook, I am hungry...."
"What do you want to have?"
She says, "Anything."
I gave her ten options which she rejected.
I sigh, "Atleast say yes to one option!"
She finally laughs, "Ah, It's so fun being the baby."
I look at her, "Were you testing my patience?"
She has this devilish smirk, " Yes & No. Let's just have McDonald's." and she is know looking at me like a puppy.
I cannot say no to that face, "Whatever you say."
When I said Whatever you say, I didn't mean going to the McDonald's. But somehow, we are going there.
I don't know, why I agreed within a second to this idea.

We prepared our outfits, masks and glasses. She wore them too. Anyway, it was so cold. We looked so extra... She said, "I feel like a celebrity ."
I laughed and realized I had been laughing way too much. "Cause you are with me."
She did her nose scrunch and said, "Yes yes of course. It is all you!" I knew she was being sarcastic, I like it when she feels like she had the last word, it's annoyingly cute.
We left in a taxi and we were having fun, I felt free and just normal for once.
She looked at me and said, "Don't worry. If somebody came up to you, I will be your bodyguard."
I replied, "You say too much for a person who cannot walk straight."
She looked at me, trying to intimidate me, "Being a clumsy person has nothing to do with being a Bodyguard. And You are just more bulkier our height is almost the same."
"You are 5'7 and I am 5'10. It's not the same."
She laughed, "Ugh. It is almost, Shorty." and rolled her eyes. I sighed, she was the first person to call me shorty, "Okay be the bodyguard. Guard me with your soul, Okay? "
She chuckled, "Yes sir."
She doesn't realise I guess but sometimes she speaks in a really baby voice, I wonder if she knows. I never thought she would have a baby voice, given her personality.

"But Ms. Bodyguard, Do you know how to fight?"
She smirked, " I did some boxing you know. I know some basics and I have grown up with older brothers. So, when I say I know how to hit, I do."
I looked at her proud smirk and gave in. I replied, "Okay. But Boxing?"
She said, "Yeah but like those basics basics."
"We should practice it sometime!"
She replies, "Yeah just Promise not to hit me."
I looked at her, "Why would I hit you?"
"I am not good at it, and you are so good. I don't stand a chance."
I checked her temperature, "Are you all right? You are admitting you aren't good?"
And she laughed, "I am aware. I would like to say."
Here it is, the cute narcissist. Ain't I saying that she is cute, way too many times?
She acted like my bodyguard the whole time, nobody came up to me but because of how she was treating me, we got a lot of gazes. Not the curious ones, the creepy weird ones. After our order, I found us the spot no one could see. It was so much fun sneaking and eating. Plus point was her expressions while devouring the meal, I had no clue that McDonald's meal could taste this good. Okay, I admit, She is cute, I find her adorable.

I teased her, "I had no clue they starved you."
She looked me dead in the eye and said, "Yeah, They did. Can you do me a favour?"
"Yeah?"
She said, "Can you go to the counter and ask if they sell some brain, you desperately need some." And resumed eating. I looked at her. This was such a bad (cringe) mean comeback.
She laughed, "I know I can be mean."
I chuckled, "You just try to be mean."
She looked up, "Huh, wait till you hear my opinions on society, capitalism and politics."
I looked at her speechless, because this one was true.
We later went to Namsan Tower, correction I was dragged to Namsan Tower, it was her first time coming here. She looked really happy and excited. I had so much fun, I haven't been here in forever. It was like I was also a tourist. She even did that lock thing, which was innocent and just pure.
She bought two locks, and gave one to me,
"Who should I write it with?"
She sighed, "That's your job to think."
So I just wrote, 'J+B Forever'
And when she saw that, She smiled so wide and then said, "That's sweet you know."
"What did you write?"
She smiled, "To more beautiful places and people. Love, S "
A smile formed on my face, "Is it between you and life?"
She replied, "Me and Life, hmm. Honestly, I don't know."
At that moment, I wanted her to be in my future and somehow I knew that she would be there. I don't know why.
We clicked pictures together, our first pictures I guess. We grabbed some coffee on the way back, because how can a perfect day end without a perfect cup of coffee? Those were her exact words.

While drinking coffee and walking in some park,
"What did you mean by that sentence you wrote?"
She smiled, "Umm, it was more like saying thank you for all the places and people I stumbled upon. But it is also asking god to take me to new beautiful places and people. So, I can be alive."
I smiled, "That's honestly beautiful."
She looked at me and smiled. While smiling she stumbled on something. Thankfully, I caught her hand, but her coffee spilt.The face she made, literal kid. I felt like I could gobble her up, at that moment.
I asked, "Are you alright? Hurt somewhere?"
She looked at me sadly and said, "No, my coffee spilt!"
"And you almost fell?"
She shrugged, "That's okay. But my coffee."
I said, "Do you want to try mine."
She made a disgusting face, " I am not having an Iced Americano!"
I said, "It's not bad. Have a sip!"
She said, "Nah, let's just head home."
"We can go and get another one?"
She smiled wide, "You sure?"
For you, "Of course."

We went back to our apartments.
"I had fun. I will see you around."
She smiled, "Yes, this was nice. Good night."
I smiled, "Good night"
I begin to feel a new tenderness towards her, very
raw and unfamiliar, like what I remember of love when I was young-love that was so often foolish in its objectives but never in its choices, its intensities. (Unknown)
Maybe, I....I like her?
