the good guy J.JK

ch.8

when I got home I told Taehyung about who I saw and only an hour after us talking, he got a call from jungkook, asking for me.

"hello?" I answer.

"hey"he says sweetly. "could we meet up? I kinda wanna talk to you"

"yea, I geuss so, where?"

"there's a nice cafè close to the school, they have pretty good tea. how about there?"his voice sounds deep and breathy thru the phone, like he's been working out.

"thats fine, I geuss just send me the address-oh, I'll send you my number"

"alright, see you there"

then the call ends.

my fingers tap rapidly on the phone, sending a message with ten digits that lead to my phone.

"taehyung! I'm going to meet jungkook!"I yell from my room.

I hear his foot steps stomp thru the hallway, ending in my room.

"no, I don't want you out by yourself after seeing that fuqboi bastard today"

"I'll be with jungkook!"i argue.

taehyung shakes his head.

"come on! jungkook is a beefy guy, he can handle him"

"that's not what I'm worried about"he says. "I'm worried about you walking there on your own"

"tae...please, I'll be fine, plus it's only six thirty"I say softly, my most reasuring face as I try to get his blessing to let me go out.

we stare at each other for what feels like years.

I understand him being protective, but I don't wanna be cooped up all night after today, I need some fresh air, I need someone to talk to because I don't feel good, I feel sick and I mean physically and mentally.

he sighs, a sad look on his face.
"fine, but he better walk you home"

I smile. "of course, jungkooks a good guy"

-

my body is warmed up almost instantly as I make my way into the cafè.

my eyes wander around the room, looking for him, then I finally spot him.

already looking at me.

he smiles and motions me over, so I smile back and brush away my discomfort, making my way over to the cute window booth he picked for us.

"I can order us some drinks"he says with a smile. "what do you want?"

I look up at the menu, squinting my eyes as I read off the items to myself.

"um, strawberry milk tea sounds good"I say to him.

he grins a Colgate grin, then stands up and walks over to the counter.

I take the time to look over his outfit. a black hoodie and black ripped jeans with black converse.

he really likes black I geuss. I don't mind it either.

my eyes pull away from his figure as they rest on the table, rethinking everything that had happened the past two weeks.

my dad's mystery death, then his 'supposedly' suicide note that I know for a fact was not written by him.

it's just to much for me to handle and I'm haveing trouble getting over it.

"here you go"I'm ripped from my thoughts as a plastic cup is placed infront of me.

"thank you"I say with a smile, to which he returns happily.

"so, I wanted to talk about what happend today...with suho"

I choke on my tea as I hear that name, gagging while jungkook panics a bit.

"what"I say with a cough."about it"

he smirks a bit, looking down at his iced Americano and back to me.

"why did you act the way you did?"

"nosey much?"

deep honey like chuckles rattle thru his throat as he looks at me.

"Y/N, I'm not trying to be nosey and you really don't have to tell me, because it's not gonna change anything, but I care. if he was bothering you that bad then I wanna be able to help you out. permenatly."

his voice is deep as he finished his sentence, that smile still on his face as he stares me down.

"permenatly?"I question.

he smiles."yea, I wanna be able to help you permenatly, like I wanna be there for you forever you know?"

I let out the breath I didn't realise I was holding.

"phew. sorry, it sounded like you were getting my blessing to kill someone"

he let out a chuckle. "wow, thanks Y/N. me? a killer? your crazy"

I laugh along with him.

well, he obviously cares. if he wants to know then maybe I should tell him. I mean, even my brother is ok with him.

"Y/N, he clearly hurt you. that's not hard to figure out, but I'm haveing a hard time picking which of the three it was he did"

I let out a laugh."so you've just been trying to figure this out? alright, let me hear them"

he smiled holding up a finger."the first geuss, is that he took your charzard EX pokemon card and didn't Give it back"

"good geuss, but no"

he pops his knuckles, then let's out a sigh. "alright, the second geuss is that he was a big asshole and bullied you for haveing pokemon cards in the first place"

"ok, do these all revolve around pokemon?"I ask with a laugh.

he chuckles."well, the last one is kinda serious"

"lay it on me"I say with a smile.

"my third geuss, is that he did something mean"

"can you elaborate?"

he leans in a bit, smile still on his lips while mine slowly fades.

"Y/N, did he break your heart?"

silence filled the air, a smile still on his face while mine went down the moment he opened his mouth.

sure, it was a lucky geuss, but deep down it made me feel sick and ashamed. sure i couldn't really do anything, but I could have said no. I could have went with my gut, but I was scared in that moment and I couldn't speak, I didn't want him to not like me.

"yes"

he leans back, already putting everything together in his mind.

"do you still never wanna see him again?"he asks, smile still not fading.

but I'm too ashamed and afraid to even care about his curled lips.

"yea, never. I know that sounds ridiculous, but that was my first relationship. I don't want to remember it"I say.

jungkook nods his head, then looks back up at me. "then let's erase that. you never had a 'first relationship' ok?"

I smile and let out a laugh. "that's kinda not gonna work, but ok"

then we begin to talk about something else.
