Lost [Jungkook ff] (Ongoing)

8. Too close

Blood started boiling under my face. I found myself staring deeply into his eyes.I could feel his warm breath on my face. Quickly I turned my head sideways before getting any dirty ideas.
When we reached the 2nd floor some of them got out. There was now more room for everyone.
"Excuse me" Jungkook made his way through others when the elevator reached 3rd floor. I was right behind him. I felt his soft hand curl around my wrist, pulling me out. I sighed when we were out.
We walked silently towards the shop.

We shared our numbers before splitting up since the i-pod section was in the other direction.

After paying the bill I left.
Ring-Ring-
It was an unknown number.
"It must be him" I mumbled and answered the call. I wasn't disappointed.
"Ah Rin are you finished?"
"Yep. Just leaving. And you?" I asked.
" Been waiting for 5 minutes"
"What. you should have called me"
"It's alright. I am near the steps" he informed.
"I am near the steps too...oh! I can see you" I said waving my hand. He noticed me and started to walk towards me.
I ended the call and was saving his number in my contacts. My focus was on the screen. I clumsily stepped on my own shoe and was about to fall.
I closed my eyes in that instant. Just then a strong arm was around my waist holding me from falling. I opened my eyes to find myself facing the floor. The person pulled me up into an upright position.
"Look where you are going Ah Rin" it was Jungkook.
I breathed deeply" sorry" after a short pause " and thanks" I grinned slightly.
He couldn't stop himself from grinning back.

He insisted on taking the steps rather than the elevator. While walking he asked about my family.
"My dad is the CEO of the company. My Mom works in a bank and my sister is completing her fashion designing course".
"Does she stay with you?"
"No. She in hostel because it's her last year training"
"So you are all alone at night?" He was concerned. We had reached 1st floor.
"Yes. But why do you look so worried?" I asked curiously.
"You are alone at home till midnight and you are asking why I am worried?" He was now a little mad.
"I can't do anything about it. They should do their job right?" Just then it came to my mind how he knew my parents came home at midnight. But I forgot about it soon.
"Their job is also to take care of you"
"Okay.. I will pass on that. Message received!" I said the last sentence almost like the sound of the phone lady. Sort of like a robot.
He chuckled hardly "You are sidetracking me". He started dragging me along as I hadn't moved a fraction from the attention position. We reached the cafe and went near the counter to order our drinks.
"I- " I was about to order.
"Two Americanos" Jungkook ordered while taking out his wallet. I pushed my hand into my back pocket and pulled out my wallet.

He was extending the money but I grabbed his hand "I will pay" and extended the money.
He stopped me with his other arm.
"No. How can I ?"
"Whatever, I am paying" I tried to free my hands.
The counter lady, offering our drinks said "He is right dear. Guys should pay during dates".
"Date?" Me and Jungkook wondered aloud. I was about to oppose but he paid and took the drinks.

"You should have cleared things out" I said while we sat at a big table so that others can join us later.
"Let her think anything" he ignored me
"And you should have let me pay"
"Buy me something next time" he answered offering me the drink.
"And how do you know I like Americano?"
"I.. don't know. I just.. ordered because I like Americano very much."
"Looks like we both have same taste" I muttered.

After a short silence.
"Can you tell more about that drawing" he asked suddenly.
