I Want the Headline

Something about the way he had said that and the way he was looking at you had you drawing back from him. You hadn't made his life any better, you thought, if anything you had made it worse. He had put himself in danger so many times to protect you. Jungkook claimed that he didn't care how much you took from him, but he couldn't have possibly meant it. You could see from the way he'd stare at you when he thought you weren't paying attention.

He was getting tired of it.

He sighed, frowning softly at you, "Why do you do that?" There was that look again. The one that had Jungkook questioning whether or not you truly wanted to be with him. The same look you usually gave before you ran off to protect someone else. It had happened with Jimin countless times and it had happened there on the cliff as you stood with Yoongi.

And then you were kissing him while Yoongi slunk off.

Acting as if Jungkook hadn't seen right through that shitty plan.

But he played along; he was actually happy to have you with him again. Jungkook truly was relieved, but after that had settled in the anger reared up. And he found his teeth scraping against the skin of your neck more than his lips were caressing it. By the way you had flinched from him, softly whining his name, begging him to be gentler; he knew that you knew as well.

Jungkook was not happy.

You guiltily looked up at him, surprised by the hard stare he gave you. He had just said you made his life better and all you had done was mentally question it; why was he looking at you as if he knew exactly what you were thinking? "Do what?"

"I say something and then you just space out." He observed, rubbing at something under your eye, "You're thinking of how to refute what I'm saying but you can't, Y/N. It's the plain truth and you know it." He warned you delicately, "Jimin may make up stories to get to you, but I only say what I've personally observed." Jungkook's hand slid down to rest on your hip, "I won't lie to you; not like Jimin or Yoongi...or Jin." Your eyes shifted from him.

Right after telling you he only speaks of what he personally sees he mentioned those three men specifically. Out of all the ones you've encountered so far he only mentions them. Why? "You know I love you. I don't lie to you. I won't lie to you. I don't keep anything from you. So why do you do all those things to me?" He questioned slowly. Jungkook was so quiet sometimes that you forgot how perceptive he was. His fingers curled into your hip, "I saw you kiss Yoongi; by the cliff."

And you forgot how much he had actually seen.

Jungkook adjusted the knit cap on his head, absently cracking the knuckles of his thumb, "You kissed him." He stated plainly, "He kept shaking his head at you, but you forced it." Dark eyes traced over the conflicted expression you wore. "Why?"

Indeed you had forgotten how perceptive Jungkook was.

"I was scar-"

"You're scared right now," He challenged, "Why don't you kiss me?" Fingers curling around your jaw, he pulled your mouth up to his. Flinching, you turned from him, eyes shutting tightly when he forced you back to face him, "Don't you trust me? You trusted every other person, right?" He hissed. You could feel his lips brushing over yours, fingers pulling at the thin skin of your jaw, "Just trust me, baby."

You screamed, shoving against his chest to put space between you two. Jungkook easily grabbed your wrist, pulling you back to him, "You like when Jimin says it, don't you?" He growled, "'Baby'? Does he make you feel warm and safe?" He smiled at the panicked look in your eyes, "Oh I've seen you with him, Y/N.. I know."

"Jeon, you're scaring me-"

"Good." He agreed, "Doesn't Jimin scare you too? And you run to him time after time? What about Min fucking Yoongi? Did he scare you? Is that why you were practically dropping your pants in front of him as soon as he put his hands on you? You never argue with them, do you? But you love to fight with me.. What about me?" He questioned teasingly, "Not scared of Jeon, are you? No.." He hummed, forcing his knee back between your thighs.
