"Brianna, hurry up," Jungkook shouted as he finished loading their luggage into the car, Brianna struggling to pull her bags up to the car. He turned from the trunk of the car, seeing her pulling her two suitcases before he sighed, "Do you need all of those?"

"Yes," She said, seeing as he approached her to take them from her, leaning down to get a kiss on the cheek from her. "One for clothes, activewear, and my shoes, and another one for swimwear, underclothes, hygiene and pajamas." Jungkook shook his head, hauling her two suitcases to the trunk of her car before tossing them into the trunk and shutting the trunk's hood. "Okay," he said, dusting his hands off of one another before looking at his girlfriend, "Is that all?" Brianna smiled, approaching him with both hands together behind her back, a smile bright on her moisturized lips. "Yes, baby," She said, removing her hands from her back and wrapping them around his neck, hoisting herself onto her tiptoes to be eye level with the boy to place a kiss on his lips, "that is all."

Jungkook smiled into the kiss, wrapping one of his hands around her waist as the other hand remained on the trunk's hood. "Alright, alright," Jermaine said, passing by the two with his bags as he headed to his car, "let's wrap that shit up." Jungkook and Brianna pulled away from one another before turning to their friend and laughing, Jungkook still keeping ahold of Brianna. "I thought this was what you wanted? What happened to team us?" Brianna teased the boy, seeing him shove his suitcase in his truck before facing her, lowering his sunglasses to peer at the two over them. "Still team y'all, always," Jermaine said, shrugging before he closed the hood, "However, I was too busy being team y'all that I forgot to be team me."

"Aw, you ready to get a girlfriend, Jer?" Jungkook asked, playing with the boy before Jermaine bucked his head. "Fuck no," He spat, making the couple laugh, "I just wouldn't mind having someone to be complicated with for a while, that's all."

"I tried to get you to talk to Carly," Brianna said, seeing Jermaine come close to the two of them, trying to ignore Jungkook's hand rubbing the spine of her back, "She was interested in getting to know you, in fact, she still asks me about you." Carly was a girl from her freshman seminar class, a nice little white girl, but Jermaine just wouldn't talk to her. "Look, she's a cool girl, but this is an all-black party. I've never not talked to a black woman a day in my life," Jermaine said, making Brianna chuckle.

"Expand your horizons, you never know," She said, and he sucked his teeth looking between her and Jungkook, making Jungkook raise his eyebrow. "What you looking at us for?" Jungkook asked, a confused and slightly offended look on his face as Jermaine shrugged and pivoted on his feet heading back to his car. "I don't know, just pretty ironic that the interracial couple is trying to get me to expand my horizons," Jermaine joked before Jungkook mugged him.

"I didn't tell you to do anything," He said, pointing at his chest as Brianna looked up at him, "I've had the same type my whole life, so I don't know nothing about that." Brianna rolled her eyes, parting ways with the boy, making him even more confused as Jermaine just laughed. "What did I do?" Jungkook asked, realizing he upset Brianna, seeing as she went to the passenger door. "You have definitely talked to other races other than black women, JK. Don't lie to him," She said, grabbing her kombucha out of the cupholder in the front seat before making her way back to him, a speculative look on her face.
