HER | Jungkook×Reader

Chapter 10

Jungkook's POV:

I started going home after my small talk with Mr. William. I did give him every information about today. Everything. The way Mr. Choi Minho behaved with Lily and Y/N and how Y/N has handled it. He didn't argue with me just like he had done with Y/N a moment ago. In fact, he did agree with me when I told him that I was impressed by Y/N's decision. But, this drastic change in his behavior towards me and his own daughter, Y/N, made me eager to know the reason. I know he was upset with his wife after their separation, but what does Y/N have to do with that? Is he taking his anger on Y/N?

I really want to think about this, but somehow, my brain is not allowing me to do so. I reached home and went to my room quickly after getting inside. I started feeling uneasy and sick since this evening, but I wasn't able to bring it to someone's notice as all of them were busy with all the drama created by Mr. Choi Minho, including me. There was a drastic change in the weather today as the weather turned out to be cold, unlike everyday's warm sun. I might get better tomorrow after sleeping for the whole night. Right?

The next day:

The uneasiness in my body increased a bit more today than yesterday. The weather is still cold outside. I dragged myself out of the bed and got ready to go to the office in an assumption that I would get better soon and that being at the office might change my mood. I called hobi to inform him to come and pick me up, but he didn't pick up the call. Where the hell is he?

I reached Benjamin Group in my car, and once after I reached, I moved towards the parking lot to park my car. Soon after I got down and started moving towards the elevator, I heard a sound. I turned around to see where it came from to witness Y/N talking to someone else. I moved forward to see who it was. The person's face is turned to the other side, whereas his left cheek is covered with his left palm. Did she just slap him?

"Don't you dare play these silly tricks with me", she warned him, and then his face came into vision. It's Charlie. The guy who came to talk to me yesterday. What the hell is he doing here? She didn't even spare another moment with him and started walking away from him.

I slowly moved towards the elevator so that she wouldn't notice I had witnessed the scene that had happened just now. The elevator door opened with a ding sound, and I stepped in quickly in an attempt to reach the cabin and get relieved from this uneasy feeling that I'm experiencing now. The doors were almost closed but got opened again, and Y/N entered the elevator while mumbling something.

Hi Partner, I greeted her. She turned back to look at me, rolled her eyes, and said a hi to turn herself back to the position again. I chuckled at her reaction and was eagerly waiting for the elevator to reach the 11th floor soon. But, after the numbers in the LED turned to 6, the lift stopped abruptly with a loud noise. What the Fuck?

Fuck, this stupid lift, she uttered while pressing the emergency button. She pulled her phone out of her pocket and started dailing and talking to someone. It might be the electrician. I didn't utter anything already feeling uneasy inside, but her "What? half an hour? " brought me back to sense. Fuck, I'm doomed.

"Please get it repaired quickly, "she uttered while ending the call. She turned towards me, " It's gonna take half an --", "Jungkook, are you okay?" she questioned. Am I??

I don't even have the energy to give her a response, and before I can even realise, I started crouching down. She quickly moved towards me to hold me, " Fuck, Jungkook, You are burning". She placed her palm on my forehead to check my temperature. "You have a fever. Literally a burning fever. Who the hell asked you to come to the office?", She started shouting at me. "Y/N, I didn't know --", "Just shut up" she uttered, breaking off my words.

She took her handkerchief from her pocket to wipe off sweat from my face. Fuck, Am I sweating? "Just breathe in, Breathe out. We'll get out of this soon. Don't panic, okay? I'm here with you, "she uttered while moving forward to hold me still closer to her.
I started following whatever she said, breathe in breathe out. Suddenly, with a creak sound, the elevator dropped to the fifth floor, and in a swift motion, Y/N hugged me, making me feel safe.

"I'm here. I'm here with you", she uttered while hugging me tight and patting my head. She looked at me and started wiping off the sweat that was forming on my face and started blowing air. "Feeling better?" she asked me in a whisper, to which I nodded.

She was so close to me. So close that it just takes me an inch to move forward to reach her lips. That's what I wanted to do right now. Nothing bothered me right now. The uneasiness, the way my body kept sweating, the way my body kept burning with fever, they were all long forgotten. The only thing my reflexes wanted me to do is move an inch forward to kiss her. And, Just like an idiot, I followed my senses.

She was looking at me, trying to calm me down by wiping off the sweat from my face, and I started moving forward. Maybe she got a hint, understanding what I am about to do. She placed her hand on my chest in a way to stop me and slowly whispered my name.

Our lips touched faintly, making my head spin and erupt some kind of different sensations in my stomach. Before I could kiss her properly, the elevator door opened.

Fuck, Did I just try to kiss her??
