Breeh's Pov

After convincing Jennie that it was getting late and she should head home, I felt a wave of unease. I didn't want to tell her about Taehyung's text; she would never allow me to meet him. As she left, I booked a cab for myself when I suddenly felt two strong, bulky arms gently embrace me from behind. I jumped slightly, but the familiar warmth and scent told me it was Jungkook.

"What the heck do you think you're doing?" I said, trying to sound stern while hiding the fact that his touch was melting me inside.

"Well, it's cold out here. I'm trying to make my soon-to-be real girlfriend warm," he replied with a mischievous grin, sending butterflies fluttering through my stomach.

"No need," I retorted, attempting to wriggle out of his grip. But he only tightened his hold, making it hard to breathe.

"No... not until I'm satisfied that you're warm enough," he said, snuggling his face into my neck.

"Jung-Jungkook, what if someone sees us... it will trouble you," I whispered, feeling his face rub against my neck and his lips lightly brush my skin, giving me a ticklish sensation and sending shivers down to my spine. I closed my eyes, savoring his warmth and comfort.

"Well, getting you sick in this merciless weather will trouble me more," he murmured, placing a light kiss on my neck that made a whimper escape my lips.

I started thinking about Jungkook and the way he always cared for me. Every time we met, he never hesitated despite his past, always being understanding just to not lose me. How could I be this important to someone? Warm tears began to stream down my cheeks as I realized that in my entire life, I had always felt loneliness, anxiety, and the sense of being left out-not enough to be loved. Sympathy from others was all I ever earned. But Jungkook was different. He was giving me the treatment for which I had always craved.

By now, I was sobbing. As soon as Jungkook realized it, he quickly turned me to face him, finding my cheeks red, my nose and face covered with tears. Seeing me in this condition was like drowning in a sea of my tears for him. He cupped my face, wiped my tears, and hugged me tightly. I hugged him back, not wanting to lose him.

"It's alright, everything's fine. Even if it's not, I'm here to make it better," he said, kissing my forehead.

"I love you, Jungkook... love you so much," I confessed, feeling my heart race as fast as his. He froze, speechless.

I smiled, pulled back to see his reaction, then saw my cab arrive. I winked at him and started to leave. "Hey-hey, wait... you can't leave me without a word now," he called after me.

"I can, and I am," I replied, giggling as I settled into the cab.

"Aaah, you will pay for this, Breeh!" Jungkook said in a cute tone that made me adore him even more.

As the cab drove off to the place Taehyung had called me to, I was filled with excitement. I kicked my legs and cupped my cheeks, ignoring what the driver might think of me. The happiness I felt was impossible to hide. I loved Jungkook, and I knew it. I would make him know it too. The thought made me blush like a tomato.

But as soon as I arrived at the restaurant and saw Taehyung's face, I set my happiness aside. I was now sitting in front of Taehyung, who was behaving casually, skimming through the menu as if nothing was amiss. Breaking the silence, I spoke up.

"Just come straight to the point. What do you have to say? I'm not going to be here at your service all day," I said, feeling annoyed.

"Impatient, huh? I see," he smirked, making me scoff at his cockiness.

"Tell me, do you love Hae-in, or is it all just...?" I trailed off, hoping he would prove me wrong and that it was all just my overthinking.

"No, I don't love her, nor will I ever," he said, looking straight at me.

I was burning with rage and anger, but I decided to stay calm. "So what on earth are you expecting from me by telling me this?" I asked, barely hiding my disgusted feelings toward him.

He threw a smirk at me and folded his arms over his chest, showing his rebellious behavior, and said something that made my world slip out from under me. "Well, I'm expecting you to help your beloved sister come out of this fake relationship by... marrying me."

Well how's itt!!?!
