seriously.
the playboy?
it could've been anyone.
but it had to be him?

jungkook sighed, taking
reluctant, forced steps towards the dreaded place in which he had promised to meet with
him.
he held hands with soojeong, still surprised as to how she had responded to the offer.
with a yes.

he didn't exactly know why, but he felt bad when he had asked her. yet, he still planted a kiss on her nimble hand as an indirect apology.
she was getting more sociable,
possibly more vulnerable.

。。。

"so could i meet her? y'know–

that felt like a smack in the face.

–as friends."

kim taehyung. a playboy.
the school's playboy.
and of course he suggested this meeting with another one of his sharp objects attached to him.
his recent girlfriend.

his fickle relationships were infamous. but most girls were so blinded by his talkative persona that they fell for his trap every
single
time.

jungkook and him had never really conversed until that moment.
it wasn't an enjoyable one, to say the least.

even when he;

"can you send me pictures of your girlfriend? i'll delete them, i promise..."

that idiotic smile on his face could've been wiped off my a single strike of a hand
but jungkook felt he wouldn't of been the bigger person.

。。。

lunchtime.

both men managed to burn a hole through soojeong with their eyes.

she didn't feel she was being particularly talkative.
then again, taehyung was doing most–if not all–the talking.

soojeong pushed the food on her plate with a fork in hand.
no one was eating, even though she was hungry she felt like it would be awkward because of that.

more awkward.

then,

ring

jungkook's phone had to go off.

"i'm gonna take this call. i'll be right back."

the last sentence was aimed at soojeong,
as he tried his best to reassure her.
her pulse was still screaming into her mind in anxiety.

taehyung rested his cheek on the palm of his hand and looked at her.
don't forget the smile.

"i know something about jungkook that you might not." his voice deeper, catching her by surprise.

soojeong urged him to carry on with a curious glance.

"he's seeing other girls behind your back. it's pretty obvious."

her eyebrows met and made a strong crease; not believing him for a second but still hungry for more information.

taehyung sat back and rummaged smoothly for something in his pocket.

"if you ever feel lonely.

her eyes widened.

or want to get revenge.

he took his cellphone out.

here's my number, babe."

she wanted to puke. she thought he was disgusting.

"no thanks." was all she said before she stood up and walked away.
she tried to hide it, but she was scared.

at that alone,
he smirked and lay his phone on the table.
disappointment in his mind,
mischievousness on his face.

jungkook opened the door to the cafe, awaiting to help soojeong with that creep.

when she wasn't there,
he had questions.

taehyung read his face and his smirk became deeper.

"soojeong spontaneously combusted. what are you gonna do?"

jungkook stared straight at him
and knew exactly what had happened.

he took one

two

five steps.

punch.
