Jungkook switched your timing to arrive from 4:30 am to the regular, 6 am. Having a few more hours added onto your sleeping schedule was refreshing to say the least, but it was still exhausting to have to run, prance, and dance around every moment of every day. From one place to the next...Oh gosh, how I need a car of my own.
Everyone was nicer however. Yoongi would smile at you more, Taehyung would greet you and reply with "thank you" every time you cooked or cleaned certain parts of the home for them. While being seen in the building, helping Lia, Namjoon and Hoseok would have fun with you, tease you, and ruffle at your hair. Jimin would sometimes help you with homework that overwhelmed you, or help you broom if you had too much to balance out. Past it all however, the most important would be, Jin, who would share his food with you.
...and Jungkook, well he did all of the above at some extent. He wasn't over-friendly as he was more awkward than anything else, but he tried and you could see it.
His nervous smiles in your direction were your all-time favourite.
I like Jungkook's smile a lot.
Snapping out of your thoughts, you focused on sweeping and reading through your textbook in the living room space.
Jungkook watched you smile from a distance, tossing in berries into his mouth as he gawked dazed. The maknae smiled a tiny side smile when seeing how lost in your thoughts you seemed to be.
The moment he felt his chest flutter, his smile would fall however.
The image of Jae, the one introduced to him as your boyfriend being the only thing that rang through his mind.
He chewed on the berries slowly.
Jungkook didn't understand that night still...sure, he felt shitty realizing you had a boyfriend—why I did? I don't know, but that's not the point—you were so different around him. It made him almost think of such negative thoughts and images when seeing how you behaved. I hope everything's alright.
Why not just ask her, you ask? Well, because I'm an awkward bumbling idiot around her at the moment. Feeling regret for treating her certain ways for weeks, unlike now...is a hard transition to fall past. Hopefully, if I find it to be my place one day, I'll ask her all the questions I have in my head.
Jungkook watched, lost in his thoughts himself, as you cutely pranced around in the living room space when Jimin, Hoseok, and Namjoon all came to help you out.
You looked happy at the sight of them being so helpful and Jungkook was smiling once again, starting to eat at more berries.
For now, I'll keep my questions to myself. It's not my place.
Yoongi and Jin glanced over at each other, smiling when noticing Jungkook gawking at you for like the millionth time this week.
Taehyung simply focused on all the berries that went in Jungkook's mouth. The man was hungry and yet was too lazy to reach over and put berries in his own mouth.
"I'm glad everyone's getting along," Jungkook said softly, pursing his lips a little as he moved to pop a few berries into Taehyung's mouth.
The boy smiled instantly, chewing away.
Jungkook chuckled before looking over at Yoongi who winked at him.
"Yes," Yoongi sighed, genuine, "I'm glad things are falling into place."
-
You moved to Yoongi's room the minute all the boys had left for meetings. It felt great to know they completely trusted you to be around their belongings at this point.
