Chapter 16

As I arrived at college and parked my bike, I made my way to class, the familiar surroundings providing a sense of comfort amidst the hustle and bustle of the campus. Suddenly, I felt a familiar hand wrap around my shoulder, and I turned to see Jungkook standing there, a warm smile on his lips.

I couldn't help but smile back as he leaned in to peck my lips, sending a flutter of butterflies through my stomach. "Heyyy! Someone will see us," I whispered, feeling a rush of shyness wash over me at the public display of affection.

"Let them see. I don't care," he replied nonchalantly, his confidence both reassuring and exhilarating. Then, he surprised me with a proposition. "Let's go on a date today. What do you say?"

I nodded eagerly, unable to contain my excitement at the prospect of spending more time with him outside of class. "Sure," I replied, my heart skipping a beat as he flashed me a dazzling smile. Together, we walked towards our class, the anticipation of our upcoming date adding an extra spring to our steps.

As I was helping a classmate with a math problem, I couldn't help but notice her distracted gaze fixed on me instead of the textbook. Clearing my throat, I gently reminded her, "Focus on the book, Sana."

Before she could respond, the classroom door burst open, and Somi came rushing in, calling out to me excitedly. Taking the seat next to me, she beamed with enthusiasm, oblivious to the disapproving glare from Sana.

"Why are you here, Somi? Shouldn't you be in class?" I inquired, trying to mask my exasperation.

"I skipped class because I missed you," Somi confessed with a grin, earning a sigh from me. I shifted my gaze to Jungkook, who was already looking at me with a knowing smile. Oh, that mischievous Jungkook.

Turning back to Somi, I adopted a more serious tone. "Somi, you need to go back to your class now," I instructed firmly, hoping she would listen before causing any more disruptions.

"Fine," Somi pouted, her excitement undeterred. "But we're going on a date tomorrow, okay?"

I felt a pang of guilt knowing that I had plans with Jungkook for today. "Today I'm busy, Somi. Let's go tomorrow instead," I suggested, hoping she would agree to the change of plans.

"Okay, tomorrow at 7 pm!" Somi agreed eagerly before dashing out of the classroom, leaving me with a sigh of relief.

Turning back to Sana, I refocused on helping her with the lesson, hoping to ease the annoyance caused by Somi's interruption. Despite the distractions, I was determined to make the most of the remaining class time and ensure that Sana understood the material.

As I walked hand in hand with Jungkook, the gentle breeze played with our hair, and the golden hues of the setting sun painted the sky in a mesmerizing palette of colors. Taking in the breathtaking beauty around us, I couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth in my heart.

"The climate is so beautiful, right?" I whispered, my voice barely above a soft murmur as I leaned closer to him.

His eyes met mine, and a tender smile tugged at the corners of his lips. "Yeah," he replied softly, his voice carrying a warmth that mirrored the gentle embrace of the evening breeze.

Feeling the electricity between us, I squeezed his hand gently, savoring the closeness we shared. In that moment, surrounded by the beauty of nature and the warmth of his touch, I knew that there was nowhere else I'd rather be than by his side.

"I like this Yn more," Jungkook whispered, his voice soft as he pulled me closer by the waist.

Confusion flickered in my eyes as I questioned, "What do you mean by 'this' Yn?"

Leaning in closer, his breath mingling with mine, he explained, "This is the real Yn. The Yn I know was tough and guarded, locking her love and emotions inside. But this Yn... she's joyful and open, embracing life and allowing herself to experience happiness again."

His words washed over me, melting away any doubts or insecurities. In that moment, I felt a sense of liberation, as if I had finally shed the layers of armor I had been carrying for so long. With Jungkook by my side, I felt free to be my true self, unapologetically and authentically. And as I gazed into his eyes, I knew that this Yn was the one he had been waiting for all along.

"You know how much I love you?" Jungkook murmured, pulling me even closer until our lips were almost touching. "Wanna see a little side of it?" he teased, a mischievous glint dancing in his eyes.

With a delighted gasp, I nodded eagerly, my heart fluttering with anticipation. He gently turned me around, and my eyes widened in awe at the breathtaking sight before us. The lake was adorned with countless twinkling lanterns, casting a magical glow over the water and illuminating the night sky.

"It's so beautiful," I whispered, my voice filled with wonder as I took in the enchanting scenery.

Jungkook leaned in to press a soft kiss to my lips, his touch sending a rush of warmth coursing through me. "This area is ours tonight," he declared, his words filled with a possessive tenderness. "No one will disturb us here."

As his words sank in, I realized that it was just the two of us, surrounded by the beauty of nature and the serenity of the night. With a smile, I turned to him, my heart overflowing with love and gratitude for this unforgettable moment that he had created for us. And as we sat down at the dinner table by the lake, I knew that this would be a memory I would cherish forever.

"After having a beautiful dinner with Jungkook," I murmured, gazing out at the serene lake shimmering under the moonlight.

"Our date isn't over yet," Jungkook's voice interrupted my thoughts, and I turned to him with a puzzled expression.

"Come with me," he urged, and curiosity piqued, I followed him towards a nearby tree. As he pointed upwards, I looked up and gasped in surprise at the sight of a charming treehouse nestled among the branches.

With a delighted smile, I followed Jungkook as we climbed up into the treehouse. Once inside, I couldn't help but feel like I had stepped into a fairy tale. The cozy interior was adorned with twinkling fairy lights, casting a warm and inviting glow.

As I settled in beside Jungkook, surrounded by the enchanting ambiance of our secret hideaway, I couldn't help but feel a sense of magic in the air. In that moment, I knew that this night would be one that I would cherish forever, a beautiful chapter in our own love story.

Taking a deep breath to steady my racing heart, I finally found the courage to speak the words that had been weighing on my mind.

"I... I love you, Jungkook," I confessed, my voice trembling with emotion.

As the words hung in the air, I felt a rush of vulnerability wash over me, uncertain of how he would respond. But in that moment, surrounded by the magical ambiance of the treehouse and the warmth of his presence, I knew that I had spoken from the depths of my heart.
