thank BTS, next ◇ BTS Fanfiction [ON HOLD]

do my best

Jeon Jungkook.

I met him during the first day of high school, we were in our first painting class. I sat at the corner back of the class and sat at the other side of the corner front of the class.

I notice he was smiling at me with his bunny teeth, I smiled at him and focus on the introduction class of the teacher. By the end of the class, he smiled at me before leaving the class ; the exit was just in front of him and I couldn't find him anymore since I was the last one leaving the room.

The second class of the semester, we had to paint a circle. Not any circle but the color wheel, Jungkook was sitting at the same same from last week. He also had the same smile when I entered the class from last week.

One the first three weeks, we started by saying "Hi!". Then, it turned into "I really like your painting", "Oh, thank you. Yours too." and "Thank you."

It was just these few salutation, nothing more, nothing less.

Until one day, the teacher wanted us as a project to paint a portrait of anything. I decided to paint the portrait of flower, I sounds weird, but the teacher let me.

For days and days, weeks and weeks. I keep working on that project, I was painting roses, not the red roses, but the ones that has the colors of a sunset.

Sketching was the easiest part, I drew three roses with leaves, sticks of little white flowers accompanied of a brownish butterfly. Painting with the acrylic paint was the hardest part, it was difficult to blend the colors of the petals before it dries.

I keep repainting the same part and I started to lose my patient, I never loses my patient, never, but this particular painting was difficult.

"Hey Suk Yung Eun, are you alright?"

I turn to see the owner of the voice. It is Jungkook. "Oh, hey. Yeah, I'm alright."

He chuckles, "No, you don't need to lie. I can see you losing patient while painting one petal of the bouquet."

I sigh. "Yeah, I usually don't get impatient with art, but it's been like five layers of paint."

"At least, it is not a thick layer." He said as he looks at the side of the canvas. "Just be patient you are still trying to make the best you can, if you know what I mean."

I smile. "Yeah, I understand. Thank you , Jungkook."

He cutely tilt his head with a small smile. "Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

"No, come with me. We've been in class for two hours." He hands over his right hand. "Let's take a small break together. It may help you to focus back onto your painting." He adds a smile.

"Arraseo." I said as I nod, then I gave my hand to him and he pulls me towards the department's study place.

He made me sat onto a random chair, then he walks away and came back with a cup of drink.

He places the drink in front of me. "This is for you." He said as he smiles.

I stare at the cup for seconds and realize: "Where is yours?"

"I don't like coffee." He said as he raises his shoulders and did a meh face. "Besides," He sits in front of me. "I already drank something earlier."

"Oh... how do you know-?"

"I just guessed." He shyly replies while scratching the back of his neck.

I smiled, thanked him and takes a sip of coffee. "So what were you painting?"
