(32) Exams and Parties

CHAPTER 32: EXAMS AND PARTIES

"Calm down," Jungkook grabs the pen in your hand and pulls the notebook to his side and away from you.

You look at him in desperation. You need to study!

"Give it back, please," you beg.

Jungkook shakes his head and smacks your hand when you try to reach for your calculator a second later after he took it from you as well.

"You've been studying nonstop. I think it's enough. Your eyes are gonna fall out and your brain is gonna dry up, Y/N."

You roll your eyes and cross your arms across your chest, "That's impossible, unless you're dehydrated because supposedly your body is 90% water but then again-"

Jungkook puts a hand on your mouth. You frown.

"I get it, I get it. But seriously, stop studying, you're gonna die. Look at yourself!"

You shift uncomfortably from your wooden seat in the school's library. It's true that you haven't stopped studying for a second, but the exams are so close- in 3 days to be exact- and you need to score the highest and become the best. That's just how life works. One needs to work hard to succeed! And this will all pay off at the end. Scholarships don't just happen.

Yet, you're a mess. Your eyes are red from lack of sleep, your hair looks like a birds nest from lack of 'making myself look presentable' time and your hands are shaking from stress. Not to mention the worst part, you got a bunch of pimples from all the stress about studying.

Jackson actually volunteered to pop it earlier, but you rejected the idea. On the other hand, Bora was much more happy to use his help.

"Since Y/N doesn't want to, how about you help me? I got this pimple on my back and I can't reach it."

"Oh, I got you!"

"Don't be rough, Jackson. I'll kick your ass."

You can pretty much say that Jackson has her back when she needs his help! (laugh awkwardly for the weird pun)

"Do I look that bad?" You frown.

Jungkook nods his head, "Like a zombie."

"Yeah, you're not the only one to tell me that. Also, have you seen my pimples? I wanna die because of them."

Jungkook rolls his eyes, "Everyone gets pimples, Y/N. Sadly, you're getting yours out of stress. Luckily for you, they're not prominent. Maybe you should rest."

You sigh. He's right.

"Do you want me to drop you home in my car today? You'll get home faster than using the public bus, that way you can rest more."

You smile at him, "Thanks, I'd like that." And then you put your head down on the table, taking a nap for a couple of minutes before lunch is over.

Jungkook smiles and pats your head.

"Good. Either way, I know you'll ace the exams. Like always."

You hum, not really playing attention.

Jungkook has been around you more often than not and its quite comforting, almost like the old days. You wonder if he is still making up his mind about his feelings towards you or if he already did and is too shy to tell you how he feels yet.

You sigh. He still makes you feel warm inside, but the feeling... The feeling doesn't make you as dizzy anymore. It just makes you blush and feel just a bit of tingles on the tip of your fingers.
