2; oh captain, my captain 🌸

*fmv: jungkzip

"Coach, you called for me?"

I peeked inside the cubicle office, finding captain Jungkook also there, sitting on one of the chairs in front of the table. He threw a quick glance at me and met my gaze before ignoring me again.

Throughout the week, I have been practicing regularly with the team. I've already grown accustomed to everyone's habits and pet peeves, making me one of the boys too. However, Jungkook still acted like a bitch to me. Sometimes, I would think about what grave mistake I did to him before or even in my past life for him to hate me this much, yet no matter how hard I think, I always end up having nothing at all. From beginning to end, he just didn't like having me in the team.

"Yes, Vee. Sit down." Coach said and I hesitantly took the seat in front of Jungkook. So far, he hasn't barked at me yet because we're in front of coach. "I'd like to tell you something about your special training. I already talked about it with Jungkook."

My head snapped up and away from Jungkook when I heard the words, "Uh, what special training?"

"I decided to make you our third hitter." He said, "I saw some great potential in you, more than what I saw from others who joined before you. So, I'm putting you on special batting training this summer because I don't want to waste your talent. You can be better, you know." He added, "And since Jungkook is by far the best hitter we have, I asked him to help you. He will be your training partner."

"WHAT!" I exclaimed, sitting on the edge of my seat and so ready to beg for another partner.

"Aren't you being too loud?" Jungkook groaned, sending me an annoyed look.

"You better start building up your stamina. You're starting tomorrow." He teased even more, knowing that Jungkook and I are not quite fond with each other.

I retreated to the locker room, the guys all watched me as I sat my lifeless self on the bench, mumbling all by myself, "I'm dead."

"What did the coach say?" Taehyung scooted close to me, being persistent as usual, "What position did you get?"

I looked at him with my last dying hope, "I-I'm going to be the third hitter on the line up."

"Aye no way." Taehyung frowned, taking a couple of bills from his wallet and handing it to Jimin. "No way. I didn't think coach would give an important position to a rookie. This sucks."

"I told you." Jimin cackled evilly, counting the bills he collected from the losing team. "This'll get me a week of free lunch."

Jungkook then came out and saw the whole illegal transaction happening, "Give the money back, hyung. Since when did I allow bets in here?"

Taehyung happily received his money back along with the juniors who were so near to starving throughout the week. Jungkook turned to me and said, "You. Follow me outside."

A chorus of OOHs erupted from the team. I looked over at Namjoon who flashed me an encouraging smile but from the corner of my eyes, there was Taehyung and Jimin grinning like two mischief makers while Jin and Hoseok just patted my back as I went past them almost as if saying good luck.
