11 - An Unknown Number

Areum's POV

"Make sure that at least one of us is with you all the time, and don't wander around by yourself, okay?" Jungkook repeated for the umpteenth time, and I nodded my head obediently.

"Araso. No wandering around by myself." I repeated the words while preparing to get out of his car. "See you tomorrow at school, then."

"Jimin hyung will pick you up tomorrow. I won't be around for the next few days."

My fingers froze on the handle upon hearing that. Turning my head around, I scrunched my eyebrows. "Why? Where are you going?"

"Somewhere far away." He winked, and I gave him a 'I'm done with you' look. "Don't miss me when I'm gone."

"Never in a million years, Jeon-ssi." I sweetly said, and opened the handle of the door. "I had fun today, thanks to you all."

"Glad to hear that. Areum-ah." He suddenly called, making me whirl around to look at him.

"Yeah?"

"No goodnight kisses for me?" He challenged, and I felt blood rush to my cheeks.

"Only this time because what you're going to do seems to be something dangerous and I don't like it." I muttered before giving him a peck on his cheek, and smirked when his eyes became so wide at the kiss. "Annyeong, Jungkook. Take care."

Leaving him still baffled, I ran towards the lift and entered it when it arrived. I giggled when I thought of his shook face, glad that I was able to tease him as he was always the one who did so.

The next day, like what Jungkook had mentioned, Jimin was here to pick me up to school with his bike. He was dressed fashionably in a black leather jacket and pants, with a white tee and a pair of boots with purposely ruffled hair.

"Hello there, princess." He greeted with his signature eye smile, making me scoff at him.

"Are you trying to impress someone dressed in this?" I questioned as I put on the helmet he gave me before hopping onto the bike behind him.

"Are you implying that I look hot?" I whacked his back as a reply when he ignited the engine. "Jeez, I was just joking. By the way, you look pretty as usual."

"Stop being sarcastic." I replied while subconsciously glanced down at my outfit. An oversized Harvard sweater and a pair of ripped skinny jeans. I suddenly felt insecure about my outfit again, realizing that I probably looked like a potato compared to the guy in front of me.

"If you're thinking about you looking like a potato right now, quit it." He said when we stopped at a traffic light.

"Can werewolves hear our inner monologues too?" I asked curiously by whispering into his ears.

"Fortunately, no. It's already irritating enough to be able to hear unnecessary noises from all around us." Jimin answered as he turned his head a little towards me.

"Speaking of which!" I suddenly remembered my mental note, "How dare you hide this secret from me for such a long time!"

"Am I supposed to tell you that I'm a werewolf then?" He retorted, and I pouted knowing that he was right. He had no reason to tell me about his secret.

Glancing around, I noticed a lot of girls staring at us, no, scratch that, staring at Jimin, and they were all pretty excited about his arrival in the campus.

"Omo. Are you this famous in school?" I whispered, and got a wholehearted chuckle as an answer.

"I'm surprised that you're only now realizing about my popularity. But then, you're Go Areum who doesn't care even if the world is coming to an end." He joked as he parked his bike at the parking lots meant for motorcycles.
