My Hero : Jungkook

Chapter 9

My eyes snapped up as I recognized the voices of BTS. I grabbed Victoria's hand and squeezed it as they walked out. We watched them in admiration. They hadn't noticed us standing here yet, so I took the time to take everything in. Jungkook was wearing a black suit with a red shirt under it. He wore a little bit of smudged black eyeliner in the corner of his eyes, making his already big eyes seem larger. His hair was swept back off of his forehead, and looked soft enough to make me want to run my fingers through it.
    Damn.
    I looked away at Zoey quickly, when his gaze traveled towards us. She saw that Suga wasn't out yet and took the opportunity to drag me over to Jungkook. I glared at her as she pulled me forwards, but couldn't really stop myself since I was in heels. Running to catch up I finally stopped myself.
"What the hell, why does everyone walk so much faster than me?" I muttered, remembering the same thing happening with Jungkook yesterday. I looked up reluctantly, remembering that I wasn't allowed to avoid him. I shivered, remembering his words earlier. 
"I'm going to make you want to break that promise so bad..."  
Ugh, Jungkook if your already doing that...I don't know how I'm going to survive this. I thought. I accidentally looked at his eyes, before blinking and turning away on instinct, but then I turned back when I noticed his eyes were elsewhere. I raised an eyebrow as he looked me up and down slowly. He bit his lip slightly, before finally looking into my eyes. I blinked and smiled slightly. I still felt doubtful about how I looked.
"Zoey said she thought you looked good," Victoria stated, looking at Jungkook.   "What?!?" I started, about to go off at Victoria. She stepped on my foot suddenly.
"We all know you were thinking it..." She whispered in my ear.
             "You didn't have to say-" I snapped quietly before getting interrupted again.
    "Do you want me to say what was really going through your head?" She offered.
    I shook my head, shutting my mouth.
    "Mhm, that's what I thought." She smiled, satisfied.
    Jungkook smirked at my embarrassed and slightly terrified face. Oh, this time Victoria was actually dead. "Do I look even better than I did without a shirt on?" He asked mischievously. My eyes widened and Victoria turned to me, a surprised look on her face.
    "You...saw him without a shirt on?" Victoria gasped.
    "Well yeah, but not-" I started, frantically.
    "So you were both shirtless?" She asked, practically yelling. I panicked as the rest of BTS turned to us to see what the commotion was.
    "What? No...I mean yes, he was. But I-"
    "She was too," Jungkook interrupted.
    "WHAT?!?" I screamed, looking at him in disbelief.
    "Oh my god...I was right!" Victoria squealed.
    "Victoria, stop it. He's-" I was cut off as Jungkook put an arm around my shoulder and pulled me over next to him.
    "I'm being too honest. I'm sorry. I should've respected her privacy." He apologized to Victoria. I glared at him. What the fuck?
    "HOW DARE YOU! ALL OF THIS HAPPENED AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?" Victoria lectured me, in front of the crowd.
    "Victoria, nothing hap-"
    "Time to go!" Jungkook exclaimed, whisking me away from her.
    "WHAT THE HELL JUN-" I yelled, as he pulled me towards the door.
    "Shut up!" He whisper yelled, stopping.
    I rolled my eyes, then continued, "YOU CAN'T JUST-"
    "If you don't shut up now, I'll make you."
    I shut my mouth mid sentence and swallowed nervously. I had no idea how he was gonna do that, and I didn't plan on finding out. Following him, I made my way over to the black car. Soon, Jimin and V joined us. They looked good too, to be honest. They were all wearing suits, just of different colors. I sat on the car briefly, while the camera men came over to us. I waited patiently while he gave directions to Jimin, V, and Jungkook. I watched in amazement as they practiced a complicated dance routine. After about 10 minutes, they had perfected it and the director came over to me.
    "Okay, this part is super simple. All you have to do is run from Jimin and V, until Jungkook takes your hand and pulls you into the car. Then you just have to look surprised, okay?" The man explained quickly. I nodded. It seemed pretty simple. "Okay, get in positions!"
    I ran over to the other side of the stage, where Jimin and V were waiting.
    "3...2...1..."
I burst out in laughter unexpectedly as I was supposed to start running. I sat on my heels and covered my face with my hands, unable to stop. "I-I'm sorry..." I managed to apologize between giggles, turning up to look at Jimin and V. They looked extremely confused, and slightly worried. For some reason, that made me laugh harder. I stood up slowly, regaining my composure. I still  giggled slightly, when the director stared at me, bewildered.
"Are you okay? What's so funny?" He asked.
"Nothing...I'm just really bad at this," I smiled apologetically. He just stared back, not understanding. I sighed, explaining, "I'm just really shy. When I was younger I was bullied, and I had a lot of fake friends until I met Victoria. Whenever they put pressure on me, I learned to just laugh it off and pretend to not understand, and sometimes they would simply give up and let me go. That's why I laugh when I'm put under pressure. Being kind of shy, this is a lot of pressure, trying to shoot a scene from a music video in front of, and with BTS, my idols of five years." Everyone looked at me silently. I noticed their expressions soften. Jimin put a hand on my shoulder reassuringly, and gave me a sympathetic look. I smiled, thankful that they weren't mad at me.
