Why him? ✔️ {JJKxR}

7: Take your time.

(Sorry I've been absent for awhile. I haven't been exactly filled with inspiration but now I'm in the mood so I promise you some new chapters xD Enjoy the cheesiness)

I had a marvelous day with Ji-hun, simply marvelous!

That last sentence wasn't entirely true; I was supposed to use that day to forget about Jungkook but it was so hard to when Ji-hun had gone on and on about this movie that Jungkook had told me about only a couple days ago. We even had some inside jokes about the movie. I mean at least I can blame Ji-hun for the fact I couldn't get Jungkook out of my head.

I walked slowly to school. I didn't walk with anyone, it wasn't necessary for me to be with people constantly. I liked my 'me' time and that wasn't ever going to change. It was another hot day just like any other mid-summer one, I had managed to stuff my uniform's jacket into my already crammed backpack so I was feeling quite accomplished. When I reached the school gate I saw immediately caught sight of Jungkook surrounded by a group of boys. I recognized Kim Taehyung who was also in our class and Kim Namjoon a third year. I nodded my head respectfully to the seniors in the group. I tried not to blush as I realized every single one of them were very good looking and they were all smiling at me as I went passed. Jungkook waved to me and I just nodded my head politely acting as if we were just acquaintances, speeding up as he gave me the same confused look as he did yesterday.

Life went on as usual... Well almost as usual apart from the fact that I was ignoring Jungkook; this went on for three days and I'll admit it was really hard for me especially when I realized why Jungkook wasn't coming up to me to ask me what was wrong, which I was wondering about because I thought Jungkook would do something like that. I heard from my friend Sun-hee who had been talking to Kim Taehyung, for some reason, that Jungkook thought that I needed alone time because I was going through some rough stuff. Sun-hee didn't leave out the part were Jungkook complained because he was worried about me and wanted me to hurry up with the recovery.

"Sun-hee, I don't want to hear stuff like that." I protested, "I shouldn't have to feel bad for a past bully."

"I know." She sighed. "But you do realize I'm going to tell Kim Taehyung that you're ignoring Jungkook because you're annoyed with him for bullying you for, what? Five months?"

"If you dare I will bash your head in." We both laughed.

The class went on like usual but now that I knew what Jungkook thought was going on I kind of... almost... sort of... nearly..... wanted him to demand I tell him what was going on but of course he didn't. The boy was too respectful and it was annoying me. When class was over I stood up, pushing my chair back harshly so that Jungkook's attention was caught. I walked out of the room feeling as though I was giving him clear signals to come after me... But wait I hate him. No! I don't want him coming after me. I don't want to be his friend. I don't want him to talk to me. I convinced myself of these things while realizing that my feet carried me to the roof of the school. Well I do like it up there and I always go there when I'm upset at school so why not? I shut the door behind me and walked to the side of the building that looked out over the courtyard. Everyone down there was talking to their friends and I found myself wishing not to look upon faces of joy for being with their best friends.

I turned around and walked to the other side of the rooftop and leaned down on the hand rail. Now the only sight I could see was the calm and beautiful trees of the backyard that no one went to. I closed my eyes as a rush of wind pushed my hair out of my face. It was so serene and beautiful up here... So why was my chest heaving? Why was there a lump in my throat? Why are my eyes blurry? A tear silently rolled down my cheek? What?! Why?! How dare I be so cheesy. I brushed it away quickly sniffed as the late afternoon wind chilled my nose. I jumped a bit as a hand suddenly landed on my shoulder. I turned to see who it was:
