Chapter 22 "Sorry"

Your POV

*A few edits were made to the story haha.*

"Y/n, do you like me?"

You knew that he wasn't being playful, he was being serious.

"... What?"
"Do you like me?"

There goes that question again and you felt your heart pounding incessantly against your chest.

"Y-Yeah, I mean you're a good friend and all.."
"You know that's not what I meant right?"

You stared at him in silence.

"Okay. Let me rephrase it. Y/n, do you like like me?"
"Um.. no." You lied. "You're already dating, why are you asking me this?"

"..I.. just had a hunch." He said, looking away.

You knew that you actually liked him alot, you just didn't want to come between him and Yeonmi.

"Can I be honest, Y/n?"
"..yeah?"
"I don't know if I love Yeonmi."

Your eyes widened slightly at the sudden statement.

He doesn't love Yeonmi?

"Wae..?"
"... I don't think she loves me, either."

You immediately became super confused.

What?!

Jungkook POV

I knew that Yeonmi was just using me because of my fame.

It's too obvious..

Flashback

I was about to walk home from school and then I heard Yeonmi talking to her friends.

"Yeonmi-ah, how did you get such a hot boyfriend like Jungkook?"

"Of course the hot boy must be dating a hot girl, am I right?" She chuckled as her friends nodded.

"Does he really love you though?" One of her friends asked and Yeonmi's expression changed.

"I don't think so. I always see him talk to that y/n all the time. Don't worry, I won't let him know about my feelings," she proclaimed.

My heart then broke hearing that.

Present

"But do you still love her?" Y/n asked.

I shrugged, not knowing how to reply.

"Um Y/n?"
"Yeah?"
"Shall we go to that park we always go to??"

She nodded. "That sounds good."

She then hopped off her bed and we both made our way to the park.

We walked along the pavements when suddenly Y/n pointed to a small playground.

"Jungkook, that's the playground! Remember?"

I nodded.

Your POV

You smiled as you watch Jungkook run to the playground, getting on one of the swings.

He stood up on the seat and started swinging himself.

"Yah Jungkook, that's not how you use a swing! Don't you think you're a little too heavy for that?" You yelled, still smiling.

"No, I'm good! Look at me go--"

His hands slipped off from the chains and he landed on the ground with a loud thud.

"Jungkook! Omo.." you uttered as you ran over to him.

You bent down to him and patted his shoulder. "Are you okay..?"

"It hurts.." he muttered, softly enough for you to hear.

"Awh, really? Where does it hurt?" You leaned in closer to him.

"My heart.." he said.

"What?"

As he looked up to you, he stared into your eyes for a second and then he gently pecked your lips.

"Sorry."
