Without You

Chapter thirteen

A/N: Erin's point of view

It has been a two days since I have been living at Jungkook's place. Apparently, something happened between Yi-Jin and Jimin because Jimin messaged me.

He didn't tell me what had happened, but I told him I would be there for him if he needed any help. I messaged Yi-Jin, but she didn't respond to me.

Jin told me that his relationship with Ha-Eun was better. I haven't heard from Taehyung either.

Right now, I am getting ready for school.

"Ayaka! Breakfast is ready!" Yoongi calls me.

"Okay!"

I head downstairs to see everyone already gathered around the table. I sit myself down next to Jungkook.

Yoongi lives in two houses. His other house is an hour away from here. Yoongi also works as an rapper. However, Jungkook and Yoongi don't talk to each other.

What the both have in common is that they have such a terrible attitude, but when they are in a good mood, they get all cuddly and cute.

Yoongi has a sweet smile which I've only seen a few times. Half the time, he would be groaning or frowning.

Jungkook would remain silent. When we eat dinner, Jungkook would wear earbuds to block out the sounds.

Mr. Min is very kind and their mother is the opposite of them. Over these two days, her mother and I have gotten closer.

Their mother is very bubbly and cheerful, it was kind of hard to believe she would have two rude sons.

"How was your sleep Ms. Kim?" Ms. Jeon asks while taking a bite of her food.

"It was great, also, please call me Erin or Ayaka." I smile and she nods.

"I won't be back these few days." Yoongi says with no emotion while drinking his coffee.

"No one cares." Jungkook says as he stands up from his chair.

"I wasn't talking to you, brat."

"What did you call me?"

I nervously gulp as I don't know what to do. Mr. Min and Ms. Jeon eye each other. "I called you a brat."

Suddenly, Jungkook hands knock down the hot tea and the tea spills on my thighs. "Ow!" I yelp out loud.

Yoongi scoffs as he stands up and leaves the house.

"Jungkook! Look what you did!" Ms. Jeon yells at him while Mr. Min heads to the kitchen to get a towel.

"It's fine. It's fine."

Jungkook just stands there, not knowing what to do.

***

After we cleaned up, we headed to school. "Goodbye Mr. Min and Ms. Jeon." I smile as I wave to them.

Jungkook doesn't say goodbye and starts walking off. "Please don't mind him, I didn't raise him properly."

"I understand, don't worry about it."

I run after Jungkook because he was already so far ahead. I catch up to him and I start to slow down my pace.

"Jungkook, are you okay?" I ask.

He stops walking as he looks at me in the eye, "don't talk to me."

He quickens his pace and I follow him as I start to also quicken my pace. "Yah! Jungkook! What happened?"

     He stops walking again and looks back at me. "I- I'm sorry about what happened earlier..."

     I look at him stunned as he said that. It was shocking to hear him apologize. I thought he wasn't going to mention anything about the incident earlier. "O-oh it's fine... Jungkook, if you need someone to talk to, I'm here."

     He nods as he starts walking again and I walk with him to school. I start smiling to myself as I look up the sky.

     "What are you smiling at?"

     "What? Aren't you happy you are going to school with me?" I smile and he rolls his eyes.

     "Whatever."

     "Then I'll take that as a yes."

***

     We arrive at school to see a bunch of girls waiting for Jungkook. The girls notice that I was next to him and they glare at me.

     I sigh as I leave him. He continues walking and I walk by myself until I felt an arm over my shoulders. I look to see who it was.

     "Taehyung!"

     "Yo! Did you miss me?" He smiles as he puts his head on my head while walking.

     "Taehyung. You're heavy!" I groan as I try to push him off me.

     "Don't be so mean Erin~ I'm not that heavy."

     "Well, you're heavy for me." I say as I finally push him off me. He starts chuckling to himself and I roll my eyes.

     "Taehyung... I feel so left alone again." I sigh.

     "I'm here for you. You're my queen~" he purrs.

     "Don't say stuff like that! It's embarrassing." I say as I blush a little.

     "Taehyung! Erin!"

     Me and Taehyung looks towards the direction when someone called out our names. It was one of the teachers from Business club.

     We have a business club in school. Me and Taehyung attend that club. We learn stuff like organizing the school funds, making the school have special events and doing speeches.

     "Oh! Good morning Mr. Lee. What did you call us for?" Taehyung asks.

     "We have an special event next week. We are going to be introducing the clubs to the new students. I want you two to do the speeches for welcoming the new students."

     "Sure, no problem." I smile.

     "Great! I'll let you know the details by tomorrow." He smiles as he quickly walks off to the other side of the school building.

     "I thought it was supposed to be Jin's job?"

     "Nah, Jin is only the student president. Meaning he keeps the school safe, sorts out the events and stuff like that. He isn't in any club, but he checks which clubs he approve and which he doesn't approve." Taehyung explains as I nod.

     We spilt up once we are inside the building. I head to my English class as Taehyung heads to Math class.

     "Jimin!" I yell as I catch him walking into class. He looks up at me but looks back down after.

     I run to him and pinch his cheek. "Why are you ignoring me? Where is Yi-Jin?"

     "She isn't coming to school..."

     "Is it really that serious?"

     "I don't know, it might be a big deal to her." He shrugs as he sits down.

     I sigh as I sit down next to him. He didn't say anything to me during class and had kept his head laid down on the table.

***

     "Jungkook!" I say as I run towards him. He looks at me from his locker.

     "What is it?" He says while closing his locker.

     "Do you know what happened between Jimin and Yi-Jin?"

     "Jimin confessed his love for Yi-Jin. I think she rejected him. Shouldn't you know?" He tilts up his eye brows.

     "He confessed? I thought they were both dating this whole time!"

     "Idiot..." he sighs and I slap his arm playfully.
