2: What?

               

I felt a sudden hit on the back of my head as the bus suddenly stopped. I started scratching the back of my head, stretching and opening my eyes to check if we have reached our destination. Feeling the same weight on my lap, I glanced at my lap seeing Jungkook still sleeping peacefully. 'When is he going to wake up?' I thought and sighed. I lifted him up fast as he slowly started to wake up, and placed my backpack on my lap so he wouldn't be able to lay back again. He started yawning as I looked out the window innocently. "You could've woke me up slowly, you know?" he said rubbing his eyes with an annoyed tone and raspy voice as his messy chocolate hair fell on his forehead. "Then you wouldn't get up." I said rolling my eyes and shaking my head in disbelief as he chuckled and nodded in agreement. "Anyways, thank you for lending me your lap." he said grinning while combing his hair back in place with his fingers. "Whatever..." I said looking at him then back at the window. Swiftly, he grabbed my wrist making me look at him with shock. He then moved closer as his eyes stared back into mine. I froze for a moment comprehending what was happening. I quickly blew on his face causing him to stop and chuckle softly. "You're really something." he said as he shook his head. I yanked my wrist free from his grip, shut my eyes, and laid my jaw on my hand. I felt a pinch on my waist but I tried to avoid it; however, it just continued. I suddenly screamed and looked back at Jungkook who was just staring at me, smiling from ear to ear. "Hey! You think this is funny. Would you stop it?!" I shouted at him. I stood up, holding him by the collar, and pulling him up with me as everyone just stared at us with awe. The teacher then came in and called everyone to stand up and get ready to go out. I let go of him and grabbed my things with an annoyed look on my face.

We all came out of the bus as the fresh ocean breeze was blowing at our faces and the sun was shining brightly. I stared at the beautiful scene in front of me with amazement. I closed my eyes and inhaled the sweet smell of the salty water. After a few seconds of smiling peacefully with my eyes closed, I felt warm breath against my ear. "Hey..." Jungkook whispered. My expression changed from happy and peaceful to angry. I turned to face him, giving a fake smile. "Hi." I said through my gritted teeth while cracking my neck side to side. "You looked really cute a moment ago." he said smiling, not caring to the threat I was indirectly indicating. It caught me off-guard. I stared at him. His face looked gorgeous under the sunlight. My mind went blank for a moment while looking at him until I realized what he said and how close he was. I slightly blushed at his complement and turned around then starting to walk away to meet up with (y/f/n). I looked back at him and saw him smiling and waving. I was flustered so I dashed to meet my friend.

"(y/n)!" (y/f/n) shouted spotting me. We gave each other a tight hug and started talking while heading to the beach house that was rented by the school. We were both assigned the same room with another student. I held my luggage dragging it with me as I spoke to (y/f/n). We were so happy and engaged into the conversation that we didn't pay attention to our surrounding and I ended up bumping into someone and falling down. "Ouch..." I hissed rubbing my lower back and shutting my eyes. As I got no response from anyone, I looked up in front of me. My expression changed back to stoicism as I recognized him, the suspect. Jungkook smiled and extended his arms for me to hold. I ignored it and got up then glanced at (Y/F/N) as I got ready to scold her for not noticing her friend crashing to the floor. My train of thoughts stopped as I realize her and another guy staring at each other. "Oh my god! How are you? I missed you so much, Taehyung!" she said hugging the guy next to Jungkook. Recognizing the name as she has mentioned it to me multiple times, I smiled. Jungkook silently stood beside me as (y/f/n) and Tae were greeting each other. "You should smile more. It looks cute on you." Jungkook said, his face close while genuinely smiling at me. I slightly flicked his head causing him to move back while rubbing it. "Oh, it's been so long! We need to catch up." Tae said letting go of their hug and looked over to us and noticing our stares. He coughed awkwardly as (y/f/n) was blushing and smiling.

The four of us headed to the Lobby's café and started talking and properly introducing ourselves. (y/f/n) and Tae have been really close friends in middle school up until high school when Tae had to move because of his parent's business. He came back this semester and she didn't know about it since she lost communication with him. I knew more to the story from (y/f/n). She has had feelings for Tae for a long time and she would mention him to me every once in a while. "What about Jungkook? I mean you two seem really close so it can't be a friendship of less than a single semester." I asked Tae curiously. "Oh, well Kookie has been my friend since kindergarten, but then he moved during middle school. We remained friends since our parents are close as well" he explained patting Jungkook's back. I was trying to hold back my laughter. "Kookie?" you asked smirking at Jungkook, as he flushed in embarrassment. "Hey! It's just a stupid childhood nickname that Tae won't forget about" replied Jungkook while glaring at his friend. The conversation continued into several topics and I slowly started to notice the stares that Jungkook gave me. It was getting late so we decided to go back and rest. "Why don't we all go for a swim together tomorrow?" (y/f/n) asked looking at all of us and smiling largely. They all agreed except for me who was silently sitting. "Now you care?" I chuckled and they all pouted. "Yeah, why not?" I said with a shrug as they yelled happily.

We went to our assigned rooms and slept the night. The next morning was nothing special. I and (y/f/n) had breakfast then did random stuff. It was time now to go to the beach with the boys so we decided to get ready and pack our things. "I'm gonna confess today." (y/f/n) said cutely as I nodded. "It's about time that you do." I chuckled and started to change into my swimsuit after I finished packing my stuff. We both wore simple black slippers and headed out and towards the beach.

We placed our stuff and towels on the beach waiting for the guys to show up. After a few minutes, the guys were walking up to us as (y/f/n) waved. (y/f/n) ran towards Tae and started talking to him. I could see how happy she was and thought about what she said earlier about confessing. I hurriedly grabbed Jungkook's arm dragging him far from the soon-to-be couple. We hid somewhere and I watched them silently. "Hey, what is happening?" Jungkook asked but I ignored him. Suddenly, I felt Jungkook grab my arm and turning me around to face him. My face looked as red as a tomato from how close we were; I was practically leaning on him as your faces were merely inches apart and our hands intertwined. "Do you, perhaps... like me?" he said slightly smirking as he noticed me blushing. I swiftly pushed him away and stood up. "Pfft, in your dreams! I was just fulfilling my duty as a friend." I said proudly. He chuckled then stood up and followed as I started walking towards the other side of the beach. I looked back at him and stopped walking. "Why are you following me?" I asked as my voice got slightly louder. "Guess I just have to get back to Tae..." he said turning around rubbing his neck smirking to himself. "No! Stop!" my eyes widen as I almost directly ran to him and held his wrist. "You can stay, but I'm gonna swim so don't expect me to take care of you." I said and pulled away my hand. I looked at him annoyed as he nodded smiling. "Wait I'll bring some towels." he said and went to bring them. 'Does he really expect me to wait?' I looked at him and thought. Even though the idea of ditching him was my choice, I still debated myself on it and ended up actually waiting. I saw him come back and I immediately made myself busy with arranging my things and getting ready to swim, trying to hide the fact that I actually did waited for him. The sun was shining brightly making everything look so beautiful like it's out of a portrait. But the view was interrupted with a towel thrown at me so strong that it literally made me fall. Angrily, I looked at Jungkook. "What's with you?" I spat at him. "Sorry. I just couldn't watch you anymore..." he said in a low voice looking at the ground with a red face as he sat next to me. I blushed but I rolled my eyes and sat properly showing no signs of frustration. He looked at me with his infamous smile. We just ended up sitting silently and enjoying each other's presence. "The sun is setting. It's too cool for you to swim now. Just rest." he said laying on top of his towel covering his face with his arm. You looked up. It was indeed a wonderful view with all the colors fading onto each other. 'oh maybe I should listen to him..' I thought about it, debating with my inner self.
