Love Is Not Over

Vernon: Competition

BTS huh? Who knew?

As in, who knew they were such trouble makers? I mean, the only thing you see on social medias about them are promotions or someone getting injured. I thought since they were way older than us, they were more responsible.

Yeah, right.

I was surprised to find that I wasn't the only one who had a crush on Cam.

How do I know?

As soon as she took her disguise off, his whole body language changed. I could literally feel his eyes popping out of his head. His shoulders stiffened too. Not to mention the way his fist curled when I pulled Cam back. Or when he looked away after I put her mask back on. All those add up to it.

"Yo! Are you trying to drag me to my death?!" Cam yelled.

I looked up, startled to find myself stopping short of a knife.

"What the-"

"It's a knife stand you idiot. When people say they'd die for you I don't think they mean literally!" She was tugging at my arm, leading us back on the main road.

"S***. My bad Cam. I wasn't in my right mind." I shook my head.

Don't kill the girl you dumbnut. You still have to confess, remember?!

She stopped abruptly, catching me off guard. I rammed into her, our skulls colliding.

"Ow! Jeez, what the hell are you thinking of dude?!" She stepped back, rubbing her forehead.

I looked up, my eyes widening when I realized it. "Cam wait-"

But it was too late. Before she could see him, her foot landed on his, causing her to lose her balance. Her arms flailed in the air as she fell back, right on top of him.

Luckily, he was quicker. Catching her effortlessly and swinging her to the side in one swift movement. They ended up standing there, his arms around her waist as she hung from his embrace. Like they were gonna tango in a bit.

His mask fell off in the midst of the incident. Recognizing him, I mentally kicked myself.

Great. Just great Vernon. Why don't you just hand her over to Jimin? That'll make everything faster.

Cam reacted first, jumping out of Jimins arms like it hurt being held by him. They stood there awkwardly, careful not to make eye contact.

She cleared her throat. "We keep meeting like this. I'm sorry." Suddenly, she grabbed my arm, pulling me inside the restaurant.

She was rushing to our seats, most likely blushing.

Is there something going on between them?

We found the others, sitting at the secluded area of the restaurant.

"She came!" Jin smiled. Then he looked over at me. "And who might this be?"

Cam took her disguise off. "Oh. Uhhhh... T-this is Vernon. As in, Vernon from Seventeen."

They're eyes lit up as I took my mask off too. "Hey, sorry if I disrupted anything. But it's nice to meet you all."

"Nonsense! It's nice to finally meet a member from Seventeen. Please, take a seat as we wait for the idiots who will be paying today." Jin gestured to the seat in front of me.

I laughed, bowing respectfully as I sat across from him. Cam, hesitant at first, looked over at her cousins. The tension between them was thick as they stared at each other.
