My Knight Princess | JK

TWENTY FOUR

"Byeol-ah!!! Wake up!! It's fire!!" Jungkook shook the body that comfortably laid on the grass.

"Lie...it's cold here..." Byeol's eyes still closed. Her head which was on Jungkook's lap didn't move any inches.

Jungkook sighed. "If I said that I saw storms coming here, will you believe me?"

"No." Byeol shook her head. "Shut up. Let me sleep for a while." She mumbled.

"For awhile?" Jungkook exclaimed. "You slept since an hour ago!!" He whined. "Wake up. It's almost night!"

"5 minutes please." Byeol patted his thigh softly and back to sleep again.

Jungkook rolled his eyes. "Yeah..take your time. I want to leave." He put her head away and stood up.

"Yah.....Jeon Jungkook....." Byeol mumbled weakly. "Don't go."

"Byeol-ah...you really...." suddenly his phone rang before he could continue.

He gave his phone a peak. Yeah, he needed to answer that.

"Hello."
"Okay. I will be there."

He tossed it in his pocket and looked at sleeping Byeol.

"Yah. I need to go now. Wake up."

Byeol didn't care. "Make me."

Jungkook sighed. "Fine. Like what you want."

He then squatting down, slipped his arms under neck and knees, carrying her up.

"Yah! Yah! Put me down!" Byeol was totally in shocked as she realised that her body was on air now. And the most shocking part was Jungkook is carrying her now! She hung her arm over his neck and kicking the air continuously.

"Oh, you're awake." Jungkook making an innocent face. "Should I toss you down?"

"Yah! You still angry at me?" Byeol could sense that.

Jungkook didn't show any expression. "Why you don't wear the bracelet?" He put Byeol down and looked away.

Byeol checked her wrist and hissed to herself. In guilt. "Jungkook-ah, sorry." She pleaded.

Jungkook didn't answer. He turned and walked away. "I need to go now. Make sure you back home safely."

"Yah.." Byeol whined but Jungkook quickly disappeared.

Jungkook's eyes were wilding as he entered the cafe.

"Jungkook!"

He smiled as he saw the voice owner. He then quickly went to him.

"Jaejin. Long time no see." He took the seat facing his friend. Jungkook grinned.

Jaejin smiled back. "As expected. You've changed."

Jungkook tilted his head, confused. "Change? What do you mean..."

"You've never grin back then. It's just really awkward to see your teeth." Jaejin laughed.

"Awkward? What are you talking about... it's just a grin." Jungkook laughed it away.

Jaejin shook his head. "It's not just." He smiled. "Do you remember our first met? At the school backyard, I am trying to save you who already bleed in pain..."

"Save me my ass..." Jungkook smirked. "You were beaten up after that." He suddenly sighed. "...then you were bullied too just like me..." he bitterly smiled.

Jaejin laughed thinking of those memories. "Well, it was not that bad as there was a person who kept covering me up and took my beatings. I only broke my arm rather than comma for a month."

Jungkook pursed his lips. "You didn't do anything wrong though. You're a nice boy and having a bright future. I am guilty seeing you ended up hurt for the sake of useless boy like me."

"Yah! That's really cringe. I am having goosebumps." Jaejin hissed. "Aigooo.."

Jungkook just gave his friend a faint smile. He really meant it actually. "So... how are you doing these days?"

Jaejin's face was bright. "Great. School is fine as that asshole was already dropped out. He got a great punishment from his father. He was homeschooled and he literally jailed in his own house. But recently I heard he already moved out from Seoul and went back to school. I really hope he found disaster wherever he was....."

"He is here. Newly transferred to my school." A deep sigh slipped out from his mouth. His face was darkened.

"What? You mean... Hoshi? He goes to your school?" Jaejin's eyes were almost bulging out.

"Sorry to disappoint you but he didn't get through any disaster. He is doing too fine...and..."

"Did he do something to you? He bullied you again? He messed you up, right? You fight back, right? You are okay, right?" Jaejin was storming him with questions and Jungkook just remained silent with his head hung low.

"Yah! Jeon Jungkook! Answer me!"

Jungkook threw a tainted smile. "Don't worry. I already learned taekwondo and stuffs. I am strong now." He tried to calm him down.

"Strength is not everything Kook-ah. Especially when he gang up and use something that might kill." Jaejin sighed. "Report to the teachers. Tell them his dark background."

"It's not that easy. No one could believe a mere new delinquent student like me." Jungkook laughed as if it is nothing.

Jaejin found it unbelievable. "Yah! You make me angry..."

"I already have a plan." Jungkook smirked. "I just want a little of your help." He lifted up his eyebrows, earning his best friend's trust.

"You..brat..." Jaejin smirked too.

"Don't be angry.. I have muscles. And useful brain." Jungkook clicked his tongue and smiled sneakily.

***

Byeol was playing with the bracelet that prettily wrapped around her wrist. She dived into her thoughts.

What's wrong with Jungkook? He was ridiculously strange today. First, he was extremely angry to me without any specific reason. Then, he being too serious make me promise about some weird stuffs. He was being super sweet, sensitive and cool too. And again, pissed off just because I am not wearing his bracelet. He acted like another Jungkook. Not the cute and annoying one like he used to be. But....

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Byeol snapped and she was a bit disappointed to found that it was not from Jungkook.

It was Hoshi.

She sled open the drawer of the study table and tossed her phone there, shut it quick. She just didn't have the mood to talk to anyone.

Byeol sighed and looked out to Jungkook's room.

It was empty and dark.

Where are you going Jeon?

Byeol couldn't help it. She went out of her room and slammed the door.

"Omma! I am going to Jungkook's house."
