Love Me Now?

Chapter 7

"Oh my god! Who's that girl?"
"I can't believe he's engaged!"
"I really want to push Jungkook off of her and see the girl? He's blocking her!"
"I want to see her!!"
"Do you think she's prettier than me?"
"I don't know, I can't see her face!"

Everyone started to spread the news and it had became the hottest topic in their school. Seulhi, who was at the rooftop, had no idea about it. Same thing went to Jungkook and his friends who were playing games in one of the abandoned room in their school.

Seulhi had finished eating her food and quickly made her way to the canteen to put the tray on its place back but, she out of a sudden stopped on her track when a group of boys suddenly blocked her way. Fear started to take over her as she took in the familiar shoes on the ground.

"Look who we have here. Minger, where were you these 4 days, huh?" very slowly, she lifted her head up, ignoring her heart which was beating so fast in her chest. Mere seconds later, her eyes met the one she had been trying all she could to avoid all this time, Jeon Jungkook.

Without letting out any word, she decided to walk past him but Jungkook's friend who she well recognised named Taehyung, suddenly grabbed her hand and pushed her to the locker beside him, trapping her with both his hands aside her.

Her eyes were wide opened and she worried her heart would explode any seconds because of the very close proximity between her and Taehyung. So close that she could feel Taehyungs's breath brushed against her soft cheeks. So close that their lips almost touch if she happened to take one wrong step.

Immediately, she leaned completely against the locker and sealed her lips tight, making sure there was a decent gap between them.

Taehyung scoffed when he found out she closed her lips tight, preventing him from doing any kind of harm to her lips. "Are you expecting me to kiss you?" Taehyung inquired, one eyebrow raised in a mocking manner. "I mean yes I would, but I'm not one to kiss just any girl, sweetheart."

"N-no, I I just- you're so close!" Seulhi squalled to Taehyung as tears started to shine in her eyes, feel so humiliated and embarrassed with all the people watching and laughing at her.

She rarely let her weakness shown to anyone but she just happened to become so greatly emotional these past few days.

With a smirk plastered all over taehyung's face, he slowly pulled his head away from hers and released her from his trap. She thought she was freed and was about to run away when Jungkook suddenly moved forward and trapped her instead. A loud thud could be heard when she quickly backed away and her head collided with the locker.

Oww!

Seeing her shaken eyeballs, the end of Jungkook's lips instantly curved into a smirk. He then leaned in to the crook of her neck to whisper, making Seulhi to lost her ability to breath for a moment. "How you doing, my Minger?"

Her body was slightly shaking and she looked at the ground, avoiding his eyes from looking at hers which were pooling with tears.

"Are you.. crying? Still? " Jungkook asked as he lifted her chin up but Seulhi reacted by pushing his hand away harshly from her face. With that, Jungkook jeered at her before he out of a blue grabbed her chin and forced her to face him.

"Is this how to make you finally look at me?" He asked and by that, Seulhi burst out crying as it was actually indirectly telling her that Jungkook have no guilty on her after what he has done to her.

Seeing Seulhi crying like this was something he really proud of and it made that devilish smile to come climbing up his face again. Gently like a real gentleman, Jungkook tugged her hair behind her ears, making Seulhi to flinch in fear from his sudden touch. "Do you know how much we miss you?"
