Chapter 47

Jungkook's P.O.V

As I walked through the noisy park, I just couldn't stop thinking about what had happened the day before. Much to my great annoyance. And honestly, confusion. As much as I hated it, I was confused. I had experienced a foreign emotion for the first time because of some teenager. I knew immediately that it was dangerous. Feeling was dangerous. The most obvious choice was to avoid Yugyeom, no matter what. I would simply go back to alienating myself from him and everyone.

With a firm nod, I kept walking. I walked, trying to keep my mind blank, until I came upon what I was looking for. The two laid on the grass, gazing up at the sky. I scoffed and leaned against a tree, waiting for Jimin to feel my presence. But all they did was stare up, looking like fools, until Jimin began to speak quietly. I frowned at the fact that he still hadn't noticed me. Was he really so infatuated that he couldn't even see me physically? I crossed my arms and waited, watching carefully.

But when the girl suddenly smiled, I felt my eyes widen and my heart speed up. All I could think about suddenly was the day before. With a gasp, I turned and slammed my back against the tree, hidden from sight. It seemed any genuine emotion reminded me of the emotion I'd felt. Because it was genuine. I cursed as my breathing calmed, trying to decide whether or not I should just leave. Shaking my head, I forced my frozen feet to move, and I began to hurry away from the Jimin and Aera.

I found myself suddenly wondering if this was how Jimin had felt. Had he been confused and frustrated with his emotions? Had he tried to suppress them? Or being the fool he was, had he let them in? I scowled and clenched and unclenched my fists. All of this was Yugyeom's fault. Everything happening to me was because he wasn't put off by my coldness. Why was he so oblivious? Anger coursed through me. Everything was falling apart because of Yugyeom.

I stopped in my tracks when I realized there was only one solution at this point. Yugyeom had to be removed.

Aera's P.O.V

"Why do you keep looking at that guy?" Jackson suddenly hissed at me.

I jumped in surprise and glanced at him.

"What are you talking about?"

He nodded his head to the student who sat a few rows in front of us.

"Him, with the black," Jackson said. "You've been staring at him for the past twenty minutes."

"No, I haven't," I told him quickly.

"Yeah, you have." Jackson looked at him again. "Is the back of him really that attractive?"

"I don't find him attractive!" I snapped, gaining a few stares from the students closest to us. "I don't."

"Well then why do you keep watching him?"

Honestly, this was how it went every time I had class with Jackson and Jungkook. I would try not to, but I couldn't help but keep an eye on Jungkook out of wariness and anxiety. I knew he wouldn't try anything in front of everyone, but I was still scared.

"Jackson...do you think there's something off about him?" I decided to ask.

"I mean no. He's Yugyeom's friend," Jackson replied, watching Jungkook with me.

"So?"

"So I can't think bad about him."

"Okay, then, honestly, without Yugyeom knowing, do you find anything about Jun-Jungkook to be sort of...dark?" I tried again.

Jackson watched him for a second before looking back to me.

"Yeah. His clothes," Jackson said seriously, before cracking a grin.
