*Sorry I've had this chapter ready for ages and I completely forgot to upload yesterday*

The sound of an unfamiliar alarm clock wakes me from my slumber.
I let out a quiet groan, the effects of morning getting to me. My crystallised eyes instantly attach to Jungkook's soulful ones when I flip myself around.

Startled to find us in the position we are I gasp slightly. His legs wrapped around mine, my head on his chest that moves up and down slowly, imitating his breathing.

Me being obviously surprised causes the corner of his lips to tug into a small grin.

"Are you ok with this?" His husky, deep morning voice melts my cold, broken heart.

"Huh?" I squeak shyly.

"If you don't feel comfortable being this close with me, don't be afraid to tell me." He says, stroking my hair. A shiver runs down my spine at his touch.

"I-it's fine." I stutter.

Ugh I sound like an idiot! Pabo!

He stares past my pupils, into my dark soul. I probably seem like a sheep with a gun between it's eyes.

His vision falls before telling me, "It's V's Birthday today. We are all going to the cinema, he told me to invite you. He was going to ask you himself but he forgot so he texted me last night."

I consider this offer, 'the longer I leave things hanging with my dad the worse the punishment will be' but its Tae's birthday, I can't refuse, right?

"Ok." He smiles warmly at me.

My brain jumps to last night, "Jungkook, last night... Did I um.. You know? Wake up randomly, or disturb you in any way?" My heart is screaming at me, I pray for the answer to be the one I want to hear.

He seems to search my face before answering, "Ermm.. No, no you were fine. If you did wake up or have a nightmare then you didn't disturb me."

A weight lifts from my shoulders as soon as those words leave his tongue.

"Oh, ok good!" My teeth show more as my mouth widens from the great news.

"Come on, we slept in late because I forgot to change my alarm so let's get ready and I'll take you ok?"

I happily comply.

[...]

Currently, we are strolling into the cinema.

"Hey Jungkook, Y/n, over here." I follow the voice and view Tae greeting us as Jin and Yoongi wave.

"Happy Birthday bro!" Jungkook and Taehyung hand hug.

"You guys are the last to arrive, we've already got tickets so let's go." J-hope and Namjoon skip infront of everyone to the big screen, more excited than Tae.

I hold Tae back and once I'm sure everyone else is far enough I congratulate him, louder than I usually would," Happy Birthday Tae!!!!"

The famous box smile spreads across his face as the wrinkles around his eyes appear, "THANK YOU Y/N!" Without warning he picks me up and spins me around in his arms.

I feel uncomfortable but because its his birthday I try to hide it as much as I can and just give him the biggest toothy grin I can.

Turning to the right, I find Jungkook waiting for us.

"Everything ok?" He questions.

"Yes, everythings fine." My hand is still having a spasm from the nerves when Tae picked me up and it didn't go unnoticed.
