Time skip
(to the end of university)
Y/n and Jungkook are heading back together after university. The car ride is mostly silent, but not the comfortable silence they're used to. Y/n’s thoughts are swirling, and she can’t shake the words Jisoo said during lunch.
You're going to hurt yourself... He’s married.
The guilt weighs heavy on her, even though her heart still longs for him. She stares out of the window, her mind replaying the scene over and over.
Jungkook steals glances at her from the driver’s seat, noticing her absence of mind. Her usual warmth and lightness feel distant today, and it doesn’t sit well with him. The silence between them isn’t the peaceful kind.... it’s filled with unspoken words and unease.
They pull up to Y/n’s apartment. Jungkook parks the car, turning to her as she continues staring out the window, lost in thought.
Jungkook : Y/n.....
Jungkook called Y/n softly.
She doesn't respond at first, still caught up in her own mind. He reaches over and gently touches her hand.
Jungkook: Y/n, what’s going on? You’ve been distant since we left....
Y/n blinks, slowly turning to face him, her eyes filled with uncertainty.
Y/n : Sorry... I’m just... tired, I guess.
Y/n replied but in a quiet voice in a hope of convincing Jungkook but he knows her better than that.
He opens his door and steps out of the car, walking around to open hers. As she gets out, he gently takes her hand, stopping her before they reach the entrance of her apartment.
Jungkook: I know something's on your mind. Let's not pretend like everything's fine when it's not.
Y/n glances up at her apartment building, contemplating whether or not to share what's really bothering her. After a moment, she nodded.
Y/n: Come inside...
The tension lingers as they come to her apartment. She kicks off her shoes and motions Jungkook to sit on the couch while she grabs a glass of water.
Jungkook looks around only to find her place is small, cozy and radiates warmth.
He looked around and noticed her slow and deliberate movements, as if buying time. When she finally returns, she sits beside him, staring down at the water in her hands.
Jungkook watches her closely, waiting for her to speak. He can sense the shift in her mood, the way she's pulling away emotionally, and it worries him.
He moves a little to reach her hand and hold them in a firm grip...
Jungkook: What's wrong baby..??
Y/n's grip tightens on the glass, her eyes are still focused on the water.
Y/n : It's nothing... just something Jisoo said...
Jungkook: Is it about us..?
Y/n: She... she saw Yerin. At the cafe, with someone else. And she told me I should be careful. That I’ll get hurt because... well, because you're married.
Her voice cracks at the last word, and she takes a deep breath, trying to hold herself together.
Y/n: And I guess she's right, Jungkook. You're married, and I'm... I'm scared this will all blow up in our faces.
