You lead the way, with a humiliated and pissed off Jungkook treading slowly behind you. "Can you speed up please? What are you, 80?"
"At least I haven't been living under a rock," he smirks.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"You haven't heard of us? We've been shaking up the world and you, living here haven't heard of us? I mean, that's some really fishy stuff right there."
His words make a warm heat spread across your face, you could feel your blood boiling. After all the trouble you had gone through to do a good deed, how did you end up having to put up with this arrogant man? "Yah!" You spin around to face him, "I don't care how famous you are, you will not take that tone with me. You think I have time to waste on music? On celebrities? Have you even seen me properly? I look like I haven't had time to brush my hair properly! Get this, famous or not, I DON'T CARE!!!" His eyes were wide with surprise, his cheeks had started to color up. He opens his mouth, only to close it again. You keep glaring at him for a few more seconds, eyes on fire, before turning around and starting to walk again. "And you don't have to do this anymore, I'm almost home. Just tell your hyungs you dropped me home."
"I didn't mean to make you so mad," he continues to follow you, "Plus, I never lie to my hyungs."
You walk in silence for the rest of the journey back home. You take the final corner leading to your street when you realize you're technically leading a complete stranger to where you live. You stop in your tracks, "I think I can manage now. You should get back. Thank you, for nothing."
"Nothing?" he smiles, a cute bunny smile that somehow makes your insides melt, "Let me walk the rest with you and see if it will be something." Sighing, you fasten your pace, hoping to get in and lock the door before he decides to drop you all the way inside your house. But you come to a sudden halt, and Jungkook stumbles, almost running into you, "Yah! I almost fell down!"
You can't hear him, your mouth was running dry and sweat started forming on your forehead. "What is wrong with you?" Jungkook follows your gaze, fixed on the open door. "Is that your house? It's pretty".
"Oh no," you whimper, tears of utter fear forming in your eyes. You were almost completely sure you had locked the door this morning. How did she get it open????
"Are you okay?" he looked concerned now. You run into the house, screaming at the top of your lungs. But you weren't sure if you were making any sound at all. Tears were clouding your vision, your legs were failing. After checking the bedroom and the bathroom, you collapse in front of the couch. Your mother was missing, she has run away, again. Jungkook kneeled next to you, eyes wide with fear, "What's wrong? Who are you looking for?"
"My mom," you whisper, "She's gone."
"What do you mean she's gone?"
"She's not okay, she's... she's..." you can't continue, gasping for breath. Jungkook turns your head around to face him, he looks directly into your eyes, "Hey. Calm down, it's okay. It's going to be okay. Wherever she is, we will find her, okay? I promise."
Maybe because of how helpless you felt in that moment, you deeply trust this man, and his words fill you up with comfort. You nod, letting him help you stand up.
"Where is she most likely to be? Do you know?" You nod, quickly heading out the door. As you start walking towards the one place you dread the most, you feel all the old memories come back in rapid flashbacks. Black dresses, tear stained faces, gloved hands, coffee brown coffins. You look at the earnest man walking with you. Seeing his strong jaw line, and perfect nose makes you realize how good looking he is. But that wasn't why you felt deeply attracted to him, not right now. It was how in an instance, you felt like you had someone to lean on, someone who could support you. In a world where you felt responsible for everything and everyone in your life, it felt like you finally found someone who could bare your weight.
And despite walking as fast as you can, you felt like you were finally breathing.
