Love Me Now?

Chapter 32

SEULHI'S POV

"Oh Hyung! Since when you've been here?" Jungkook rubbed the back of his neck and went to his friends to greet them, leaving me standing like a lonely statue in the middle of the living room. I kept my eyes on them and bite my lower lips, nervous to the fact that their eyes were laying lazily on me and I became uncomfortable since I know and really familiar with that gaze.

It's a gaze when boys checking girls out.

There must be two reasons why they're checking me out. First, maybe because I appeared as a different Seulhi in front of them. No pony tail, no big spectacles, no enormous shirt, no long pants, and above all, I'm not that nerd, ugly and flat Seulhi and I'm basically not their toy-in-high-school anymore. And second, maybe because they couldn't even recognise me and thought that I'm one of Jungkook's girlfriend.

Feeling slightly insecure with their intense stare, I awkwardly paced towards Jungkook and hid behind him to shield myself.

"Long enough to see this two lovebirds having so much fun." Jin stated out of nowhere and I swore I felt my cheeks heating up.

"If you think got showered by a fistful of snacks is fun, I still have some in the kitchen. Wanna try?" Jungkook challenged and everyone grinned at him. Few seconds later, they became silent and I really wish for the ground to swallow me whole because I could clearly tell their eyes were darting on me again. I tugged onto Jungkook's shirt, asking help from him and surprisingly, he understood my message.

"What with the stare?"

"Is that Seulhi behind you?" Taehyung suddenly blurted out and Jungkook laughed out loud.

"Of course she's Seulhi. What's wrong with you guys?" Jungkook laughed again and I kept standing behind him, not bothering to encourage myself to face all of them because I've set in my mind that they're a group of badass and they're incredibly dangerous.

"We just..well you know, fascinated?" Taehyung told. I felt butterfly flipped in my stomach and my cheeks hurt because of too much heat. I just worried that it might be toasted, if that even possible. "We heard the news that you'e taking over the G.C.F last night and Jhope hyung searched it in Naver."

"And?" Jungkook asked, asking for more explanation.

"We see a lot of pictures and well, you look great."

"So?" Jungkook asked again, his eyebrows raised.

"And.. the party look fancy and there are lot of peopl-" Taehyung instantly stopped when someone smacked his back. "Yah!"

"Stop blabbering Taehyung!" I peeked over Jungkook's shoulder and saw Suga rolled his eyes at Taehyung. "I'm gonna make this short. We see a picture of you and all of them were dead shocked when they saw Seulhi. They keep saying that she was so damn hot over and over again and it annoyed me because they're being so loud when I was trying to have my sleep!"

My eyes widened and I almost tripped when Suga bluntly told that. The grip over Jungkook's shirt tighten and Jungkook seemed to notice it when he suddenly reached out for my hand on his back. I thought he was just going to hold it but, I was totally wrong when he pulled me to his side and wrapped his arm around my shoulder.

"What the heck!? Min Yoongi! We've discussed about it last night to never bring this up!" RM yelled at Yoongi who just shrugged his shoulder off, acting as if he did nothing wrong but stating the fact.

"Yah Kim Namjoon! You're making it obvious now you know? I was about to cover it up but you totally spoilt everything!" Jin shouted to RM and slapped his back.
