3. The Proposal

Chapter 3-

"Well what is it?" I ask impatiently, waiting for literally anything to come out of his mouth, "Just, sit back down and hear me out okay?" I slowly nod my head and sit back down on the park bench, "speak now or forever hold your peace Jungkook, I don't have all day.." he takes a deep breath and says "so basically, tour lasts 10 weeks, I don't think I can wait that long to see you again. So what if, maybe, just maybe, you come on tour with us? As a supporting act? meaning that you'd open the show. It's never been done by a k-pop group before, but I'm sure the guys would be cool with it! I kinda, sorta, maybe already told them about you the first day I found you, and if they met you I know they'd say yes immediately! So, what do you say?"

My eyes widened and I tried to speak but no words would come out. This was a lot to handle in just one evening. Imagine finding out that someone like him liked your voice enough to invite you on a tour, liked you enough. "I- Jungkook I don't know what to say.." he took both of my hands in his and said "Just say yes." "Jungkook this is crazy, I literally just met you today! You don't even know my name for goodness sake! Plus, how do you expect me to just ditch my life, my work, all for you?! I-" he scooched in closer to me, making me sit up a little, "First of all, your name tag."

I look down on my chest and realise that I'd had a name tag on the entire time, of course he would've seen it on my uniform, he'd been there five times, I'm so stupid. "Second of all, I don't expect you to drop everything for me, it's not my dream, it's yours. Imagine the publicity you'll get from all of this y/n, you might actually have a career after this, and a successful one at that. Look, tomorrow I'll take you to meet the guys, if they support it and you're still cool with it, we'll figure something out, if not then, I guess I'll just have to wait 10 weeks to take you out for dinner.." I smirk to myself as I think of a joke in my head "What?" He asks grinning at me, "Nothing, it's just, waiting on dinner for 10 weeks, I'd be starving." He laughs at my light hearted joke and replies "I guess you would be y/n. I wouldn't want you going hungry now would I.." I now take his hand in mine and say "Well then I guess we'll just have to do it sooner."

After all of that, time had gotten the better of us and it was now almost 1 in the morning. Jungkook has offered to walk me home and I accepted his kind offer, we were now walking down the street in the pitch black night, with only the yellow glow of the streetlights to lead us home. I was walking with my hands in my jacket pockets and as I breathed clouds of white smoke escaped my plump pink lips, it was pretty cold out.

I made it to the entrance of my apartment and we both stopped "Well, this is me!" I say looking up at the building, he pulls down his hood and flicks his fluffy unstyled dark hair away from his face, sending yet another grin my way. "You know, I'm really glad I had the courage to come up to you today, I wish I done it the first time I saw you but unfortunately I just don't have the power of turning back time, yet." The corners of his mouth rise and I couldn't help but admire how soft and plump his lips looked when he did that. "Well think of it this way, everything happens for a reason. Maybe you weren't meant to do it that particular day, simply because it wasn't meant to be. But look where we are now! You were finally brave enough to show me your true self and now you have the honour of witnessing how truly mesmerising I am" I say sarcastically as I spin around dramatically and laugh at how cringey I was being.

He just simply looked at me up and down, but even the intensity in his gaze made me feel automatically intimidated, even if he didn't mean to be. I walk to my front door and put in the key, twisting the lock and pushing the door open as I walked into the house. Before I closed the door I hear a "Hey!" I look up to him once more and he says "Please tell me you're free tomorrow." I think to myself and realise I wasn't working tomorrow's shift, "Yeah, I'm free, why?" He smiles "Sleep well tonight then..tomorrow, we're gonna have some fun." I playfully roll my eyes and close the door, as soon as I hear it click shut I lean my head up against it and let out a heavy sigh, 'I met Jeon Jungkook tonight.' I think to myself 'And tomorrow he wants to see me again.'
