Colorless Beauty

16: What If

"Don't move."

I was too shocked to even speak. His face came close to mine as my body tensed. My eyes were shut tight as his free hand settled at the back of my neck. He was about to kiss me.

The next think I knew, his paintball gone went off. I quickly opened my eyes to a Jungkook I have never seen before. His mouth was hanging open as the sound of his laughter filled my ears.

'Don't look at him. You can't fall for him.' I told myself, but I couldn't look away. I felt my heart beating at an uncontrollable speed.

His eyes shifted over to me again, and he immediately wiped that smile off of his face as he swallowed his saliva.

This time, I couldn't help but to chuckle a bit at how awkward he looked.

"What." He said as he came up to me and grabbed the flag from the inside of my vest that was splattered with orange paint.

"N-nothing." I responded as I began walking back out of the forest. He was following behind me, not saying a word, until we successfully made our way out of the woods.

Of course, Sumi was the first one to come over to me and Jungkook.

"You won!" She said right before planting a kiss on his cheek while I tried ignoring it the best I could by running over to Jimin.

"You're still better than him no matter what." He said, patting me gently on the head, and I couldn't help but to smile.

"I think I'm going to go take a shower. I'm all dirty." I told him, pressing my hand against my sweating forehead.

"I will too. I hate to stink. If you finish before me, wait on that bench." He then pointed to the wooden bench right outside of the bathrooms.

"Okay." I told him.

. . . . .

I had just gotten out of the showers, and was now waiting for Jimin on the bench, just like he told me to do. But for some reason, he was taking a long time. I had been waiting for about 10 minutes, and sooner or later, it had turned to 20.

'Should I go in there? No I can't go in there.'

All of a sudden, the door next to me swung right open, making me jump a bit from the loud noise. Yoongi came into my sight, and he just scanned the open field. He looked as if he was satisfied. Maybe because the shower he just took made him feel better.

He then looked over at me, and his expression became foul. Before I could say anything, he walked off, giving me the cold shoulder. I just sighed, and looked back out into the distance, noticing that the sun was about to disappear.

'Maybe I should just leave.'

Suddenly, the boy's bathroom door came open again, revealing a wet-haired Jimin. He didn't look like his usual self. In fact, he looked like he did earlier that day. After Yoongi had pulled him away.

"What happened to you?"

He looked at me and gulped some saliva. His lips were red as if he was just biting them, and it looked like there were small redish-purplish marks on his neck, but it was kind of hard to tell.

"I-I just took a shower." He said, licking his lips afterwards.

We just looked at each other for a bit, until he broke the silence.
