Sydney's POV

     After Yoongi said that he needed to go do some errands, I stand up from my bed and walk over to my kitchen.

     "BANG BANG BANG.." I sing to myself and dance like a fool as I look through the refrigerator. Nothing. Not a single tasty looking item. "Fuck me, I guess." I complain. I grab my keys after putting on my shoes and decide to make a run to the store.

     Finally, after so much traffic, I make it to my favorite little grocery store. Yes, there are stores much closer to my house, but this one has my favorite pickles and BOY was I craving some. I make my way through the isles with my earbuds in and a basket in hand. After making a B-line for the pickles, I see that there's only one left.
    
     'Yes! They have one more!' I reach out for them and right before my hand touches the glass, someone else grabs them and turns to walk away.
I whip the earbuds out of my ears and walk towards the man. "Hey! I was about to grab those, what the hell is your problem?!"

     The rude man turns around and laughs once he sees how small I am compared to him. "Uh, I'm pretty sure if they weren't in your hand yet that they were fair game. Go somewhere else to get pickles."

     "I was an inch away from them!" I raise my voice even louder than it was before. "Just give them back and I'll be on my way." I say, this time quieter.

     "No way! These are the best pickles out there. I got them before you, get over it." He turns away for a second before turning right back. "And you shouldn't be alone in the store without your parents." He pats my head, "Now run along, kid."

     After hearing him call me 'kid' my blood began to boil. "I am not a child. I'm 20 years old. Now give me the damn pickles!" I shout, reaching to steal them from him.

     The man lifts them above his head so I can't reach them and takes a step backwards. "Get the fuck away from me!" He stumbles and accidentally bumps into someone behind him, dropping the pickles in the process.
"Oh great! Look what you did! You smashed my pickles!" I yell and run over to the boy that got bumped into. "Are you okay, Sir?" I look around our feet at all the broken glass.

     The rude man sighs heavily and stomps away without even attempting to clean the mess he made. "I'm alright, are you? He was being really mean to you.." he bends down to pick up a pickle slice off of the ground. After he had it in his hands, he gives me a wink and throws the pickle at the man who dropped them.

     As the pickle makes contact with the mans jacket, he doesn't even notice. It sticks to the material like velcro and stays there. "Oh my god!" I laugh out. "Perfect shot!" I give the boy a high five and we both laugh for a few more seconds. I extend my hand and he takes it in his. "I'm Sydney. It's nice to meet you."

     I couldn't help but notice just how strong his grip was when he shook my hand. "I'm Jungkook." He smiles at me and pulls his hand back gently. "I'm sorry that dickhead took the last pickles..." he quickly reached into his basket and pulls out a jar of his own. "You can have these ones."

     "No! No, no, I couldn't take those from you. Thank you for the offer though!" I put up my hands to stop him from giving me the delicious food.

     "It's not an offer, it's an order." He smiles and places them into my basket. "This is to show that not all strangers are awful." Jungkook laughs lightly and takes out his phone. "Hey.. would it be okay if I got your number?"

     I blush and gently grab the cellphone. "Sure!" As I type my name and number into his phone, I can't help but smile to myself. "Text me anytime." I look up at him and smile. 'Wow... so tall.. and those eyes.... wow.'

     I got so caught up in staring at him that I didn't hear what he said. "I'm sorry, what did you say?" I mentally curse myself for being so awkward.

     "I said, we should meet up sometime. We could hang out and eat pickles together." He laughs and I can see a slight blush spread across his face.

     "U-Uh, yeah! Of course! Just text me anytime." 'Dammit, Sydney! You already said that!' I pick up my basket and start walking past him to tell an employee about the mess. "It was nice to meet you, Jungkook. And thank you for being so kind." I wave slightly and keep walking. 'That boy is so fucking hot.'

AN: AYYYYEEE so I think I'm getting the hang of this writing thing. It's pretty fun and a great stress reliever.
