Oblivious (a Kim Jongin story)

Chapter Five.

Jasmine's POV

6:30AM
My alarm rang and I was instantly awake. I turned it off and tried to get out of bed but a pair of arms were wrapped around my waist. I laughed softly and shook the boy who was holding me tight.

"Jongin, wake up." He groaned in response and his grip loosened. After a few seconds he rubbed his eyes and slowly opened them.

"Good morning," I smiled at him and got out of the bed, "get up, we have school today." I stretched and let out a yawn. He got up from the bed and did the same.

"Do you want breakfast?" Jongin nodded and I walked downstairs with him following behind me. When we got to the kitchen he sat down at one of the chairs while I got the ingredients to make breakfast; pancakes. I took the frying pan and placed it on the stove before adding some butter to it. When I finished the dough I poured some into the pan and made a pancake. I repeated this three times so Jongin could have two pancakes and I would eat one.

I got some syrup from the cupboards and placed the two plates with pancakes on the table. Jongin's eyes lit up when he saw the food and thanked me before he started eating. I cut my pancake in little pieces and ate them one by one. Jongin used a different method; his hands. He looked like he was really hungry and in a few minutes both of his pancakes were finished.

"That was delicious, Jas, thank you." I smiled at him as a response and got up from my seat.

"Do you want to take a shower?" I asked Jongin and he nodded. We both walked back upstairs and he disappeared into the bathroom. After a while I heard the water running and decided to lay out my clothes already. I took a skinny jeans and sweater. Simple outfit for another long day at school. After I had gotten my clothes I packed my bag for today. I was just finished when I didn't hear the water running anymore and Jongin came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He walked into the guest room were his stuff was and I sneaked into the bathroom to take a shower.

Jongin's POV

I couldn't stop thinking about last night. How I fell asleep in her room. How my arms were actually around her waist. What did she think? Was I a burden to her? Did she mind me sleeping in her bed? Was she okay with it? She didn't say anything about it and I thought it would be dumb to ask. But so many questions were going through my head and it was making me insane. I'm falling so hard for this girl and she doesn't even know. I don't think she'll ever know.

When I stepped out of the shower I wrapped a towel around me and went to the guest room to get dressed. I heard Jasmine get in the bathroom and after a while I heard the water running. I dropped the towel and got dressed. When I had all my clothes on I went to Jasmine's room to borrow her blowdryer. I'm sure she wouldn't mind. As I was blowdrying my hair I got a brush to style it too. I was just finished when Jasmine came in wearing a bathrobe. I kind of panicked and got up to leave.

"Sorry, I'll let you get dressed." I heard her laugh when I walked out of the room.

"It's okay, don't worry" she said.

I walked back into the guest room to get my stuff for school and to collect the things I used while I was here. I put my sweatpants and shirt I had worn tonight back into the sports bag and checked if I had all my essentials in my satchel. Once I was sure I had everything together I walked downstairs. I took my keys and went outside to my car to put my stuff inside already. As I walked in the house again I saw Jasmine all dressed and ready.

"I thought you left without me," she let out a breath of relief.

"I wouldn't leave without you." I smiled at her.

"Do you have everything you need?" She nodded at me and we walked outside. After she had locked the door we got into my car and drove off to her school.

Jasmine's POV

When we arrived at my school I waved Jongin goodbye and walked into the building. I had to get some of my books from my locker so that's where I went first. I unlocked it and searched for the right books before stuffing them in my bag. After I had gotten some books out I didn't need in my first periods I closed my locker again. I wanted to walk to my first class but stopped when I heard someone call my name.

"Jasmine! Wait for me," I saw Jennifer catch up on me and smiled at her.

"Hey, thanks for waiting." She panted from running.

"Hey, you're welcome." We started walking to our first class. Jennifer was a bit ahead of me so I checked out her outfit. It were the clothes she bought yesterday when we went shopping. They really fit her well.

When we got to our class we took our seats next to each other and waited for the teacher to start. She did her usual morning talk and we just listened to her. At the end of her 'morning talk' she told us that we will be watching a movie in this and the next few classes. She put in some sort of documentary and everyone sighed. Some of the students placed their head on the table and just went to catch up on some sleep. Others just stared outside. 

I placed my chin in the palm of my hand and watched the documentary. I wasn't really watching though. My brain didn't save anything that was being said. My mind just wandered off to random things.

I looked at Jennifer and saw that she was resting her head in her hand with her eyes closed. I turned my head to the left to look outside when I saw the screen of my phone, which was placed on the table, lit up.
