"What do you think you're doing?" I pulled my hand from his when we found ourselves outside of the building . Both anger and annoyance streamed through my veins. He turned around to face me.

"You can't just drag me around like you want to." I glared at him. He tried to take my hand in his but I just pushed him away.

"Don't touch me!" I yelled my face starting to burn and he flinched. I was afraid that if he touched me again my nervousness would make me weak and I would ease up. And I didn't want that. I hated that his touch started affecting me.
He muttered something and ruffled his hair in frustration.

"I'm sorry, okay!?"He exclaimed. I just stared at him blankly, ready to leave.

"I swear, If I had stayed a minute longer I would have probably broken his nose!" He tried to explain slowly approaching me and I took a step back. His eyes were fierce sending shivers to my body.

"Why would you? What's your fucking problem?" I couldn't control my voice and with every word it became louder.

"I heard him, Noelle."He paused pulling his turtleneck of his sweater a bit, which felt like it was suffocating him.

"He threatened you... about me, right?" He questioned.

"Why do you care? What's your deal with him anyway!? You can't put your nose everywhere!" My gaze didn't move from his dark eyes.

I remembered the tension between him and Eden from last time, and it was obvious there was something between them. I felt like the moment Jungkook appeared everything kind of went down hills. I had know him for only a short time and yet in that period everything changed so fast. I was so tired. My life became noisy, Eden started acting like shit towards me and the fact that the man I once used to call father was soon getting out of the prison was not helping at all.

Yet, the most frightening was the mess my head would create on sight of Jungkook. The way my body reacted to his touch, the way my stomach would tighten into a knot, I was afraid to understand why that was happening. I didn't know him and that's what confused me. He was confusing me. Just how can someone you barely know make you feel that way.
He was hot, but his personality was incomprehensible-one moment he would act cute and seem like a child, yet the next moment it felt like he would explode. His frequent mood swings were irritating but they also scared me.
A lot.

He grabbed my shoulders getting in my face. His dark brown eyes were enlightening to his normal hazel colour as it seemed he was calming down. His chest started to relax while he stared deep down at me, and in contrast I felt pressure in my chest as my heart was trying to find its way out because of our proximity.

"I know him Noelle and he's no good. I don't want you to listen to him, just avoid him. I won't let him hurt you. Just... trust me." His warm breath was hitting my face and with every word he would utter I was burning more and more.
I cinically laughed.

"I know that. I realized that on my own... but trust you? Isn't that funny? I know you for how long, huh?"

"Noelle..."

"Everything you do is appear out of nowhere and basically attack me with your mood swings which confuse me so much. You say you wanna be my friend but you don't act like it. I don't know you, so how do you expect me to trust you?" I let that out all in one breath as I passed my eyes tightly.

"By getting to know me and letting me to get to know you. I only want that, but you keep avoiding me and that's why I get a bit... pushy." His hands slipped down my arms slowly. Travelling down to my elbows to my wrist, sliding his fingers into mine and wrapping my hands.
I flinched at the touch of his bare skin on mine and sighed in nervousness.

"Please..."He squeezed my hands and his gaze was puppy like.

I sighed once again muttering an uncertain "fine" at what his lips formed into a bright smile, now his eyes taking the light hazel colour completely. He let out an overjoyed laugh and a smile appeared on my lips.I suddenly felt his arms wrapped around my body and in that moment, I think I forgot how to breathe. I needed few seconds to awake from the trance.

"Let's take it...slow... okay, friend? I emphasized the word "friend" slowly pulling out from the hug as I thought I would die without being able to breathe and I slightly hit him on the shoulder.

"Let's go, sweet cheeks." One more laugh escaped his lips as he turned around and headed to the gates. Suddenly the nickname he gave me made me blush and my heart skipped a beat. What is wrong with me?

"What? Where?" I asked confused, following him.
He stretched his left arm and took a look at his watch.

"Your lecture already started and I know the History professor doesn't let the students who are late in, so... you're not planning on going back, right? Ah, I'm hungry..." He said massaging his stomach with a mischievous grin on his face.
He stopped putting his hands in the pockets of his leather jacket and leaning his head a bit, making the veins on his neck, which could be partly seen, pop up. He waited for me to catch up. Sunshine was illuminating his skin as well as his eyes making them look like two miniature Suns. I gulped at the sight in front of me. I wasn't able to utter anything for I would probably let some inhuman sound leave my mouth so I stayed silent and kept walking with him when I caught up.

"You tell me we walked for an hour even though your car was parked in the campus? Seriously?" I said rolling my eyes in annoyance as I sat down on the grass in the park.

On the way to the park Jungkook had around three meals and not to mention that we visited two stores so he could get more food. I loved food but he seemed to cross the lines of normality.
He didn't talk much though, yet, I couldn't but not steal glances whenever he would talk and his lips would curve in a smile. I mentally hit myself too many times to count.

"Car ride would take us only few minutes and by walking we got extra bonding time, right?"

"That's stupid, my feet are killing me." I leaned backwards, my back touching the ground, now laying on the grass.

I heard the sound of a bag opening and when I looked at Jungkook, who was now leaned on the tree with his legs crossed, he was already eating some crackers.

"Seriously... you are eating again?"My eyes widened in disbelief.

He just shrug his shoulders, smirking, letting his dimples to appear.

"Catch it." He says throwing a cracker towards my head. I covered my face making the cracker hit the my hands and then fall on the grass.

"That's childish, I don't wanna do it." I muttered my face still covered.

"Ah, c'mon!" He exclaimed and I huffed.

I tried once, twice....he threw a cracker the tenth time and I still didn't managed to catch.

"You are so bad at this." He kind of sang it throwing a full hand of crackers on me and I got frustrated closing my eyes tightly.

The moment I opened my eyes I stopped breathing. He was leaning above me the proximity of our faces barely ten inches. My heartbeat became wild and our eyes locked. I couldn't think clearly, it felt like my brain was shaking. His gaze fell on my lips and at that my eyes unconsciously moved to his lips. They seemed so soft even though I never touched them. They were alluring me and my brain tried fighting against the attraction I was feeling. Something was pulling me towards his rosy lips, feeling the want to taste them so when it seemed he started leaning closer I was hypnotized.

The next moment his hand travelled down my neck to the rub of my sweater and I though the electricity I felt at his touch would kill me any moment. A sly smile appeared on his face as he picked up a cracker that was laying on my sweater and placed in into his mouth. He started backing away and I was in shock my face getting scarlet red. While backing away he picked up another cracker and now placed it into my mouth.

"What's wrong, sweet cheeks?" He asked his sly smile never leaving his face. "Did you perhaps think I was going to kiss you?" It came out of his mouth almost as a whisper, mocking me.

And I just wanted to scream.
