Minseo's POV

"How about we go to Lotte Resort Jeju Art Villas?" Jungkook suggests and I give him a weird face.

"Jungkook. This isn't a vacation. I'm not spending that kind of money on this.." I say and he shakes his head smiling.

"No.. I'll pay.. And just think of it as a vacation. Like a romantic date." He says and I scoff.

"Look. Jungkook. If you're going to tag along, we're making this my way. If you want a fun and romantic vacay, then go find yourself another girl. I'm running away. You do realize this, right?" I said and he gulps before slowly nodding.

"Yeah.. I understand. I'm sorry." He says following me. I head for the train station so I could go to Gangnam. That's where my parents used to live and if I renew the place, I could still own it. Hopefully, that will give me a few days to just think about some stuff. It would have been better if I was alone but who can stop Jungkook?

--- A Few Hours Later ---

We got the rent back on and luckily, the whole building was still under their name. Well, technically my name because it was passed onto me after their death. Jungkook and I were done unpacking. It was silent the whole time. Neither one of us spoke and you couldn't even hear us breathing. It was dead silent until Jungkook dropped something. I look up concerned but at the same time awkward.

"You okay?" I said a little quietly. He chuckles before walking over.

"Minseo.. I hate doing this all the time.. But I just can't help it." He says and I thought he was going to tell me to run back to Taehyung or call him but he suddenly pulls me into a kiss. I freeze in my spot not knowing what to do. I softened as I felt a tear fall onto my cheek. I wasn't crying though. I open my eyes and see him crying. I instantly pull away and stare at him.

"Jungkook.. Why are you crying?" I said and he smiles faintly.

"You need to talk to Taehyung.. Yes.. I'm sorry there was a second time. But he must have had a reason for both." There it is. I sigh because I knew Jungkook was a good person.

"Jungkook.. Can't I just date you?" I said looking up at him. He licks his lips nervously before inhaling deeply.

"You know we can't do that.." He breathes out and I take his hand.

"Why? Jungkook.. We both want it-"

"Do you though?", He says interrupting me. I widen my eyes at him. "I mean.. Do you even like me? Aren't you just saying this because I'm your backup? I don't want to be that. Until you actually like me, I'm not doing this." He says and I close my eyes. Maybe he is right. Maybe I am just rushing things to get rid of my heartbroken state. Everything just tires me out. Noticing my mistake, I let go of his hand.

"I'm sorry."

"No.. Don't be sorry. I still love you, okay? I'm not saying I don't. It's just.. I don't want to get you involved in things you're not ready for." He says and I nod trying to let go of the fact that he will never be mean to Taehyung. That's how much of a good friend he is and it's just.. Sometimes, I hate that he's too nice.

Taehyung's POV

"Where do you think she went?" Namjoon says freaking out about how pissed Jin was. Yes. I made a mistake. A big one. I can admit. But I have reasons for everything and they're both not lies or excuses.

"Why'd you think she left us? Because you just had to make those choices! You couldn't have just broken up with her? Like dude! None of this is cool, man!" Hoseok says staring at me. Jin wasn't as mad as before as it's been almost a full day since the two left.

"I'm sorry guys. I know I can't start just by telling you to trust me. I need to tell you why. It's just I didn't want Minseo to be more mad than she already was. That's why I didn't tell you." I said gulping. Everyone starts to gather around me on the couch and some sat down on the couch with me and some sat on the floor.

"Okay. We're listening." Jimin says as he loves drama.

"The reason why I cheated the first time was because I was young. I made a mistake. And I know that sounds stupid. It was. It was Haneul. That crush I had since forever. She confessed to me that day and told me that we would go on five dates and see if I wanted her. But I told her I had Minseo. So she changed it to three because she really wanted me. And I was stupid to think she did but I accepted. Eventually she left telling me that I was kind of boring. And so that's why I didn't tell Minseo. Because it wasn't that big of a deal. And the kiss Hoseok and Jungkook saw. She pulled me in. Not me. I wouldn't do that to Minseo. We all know the second time. She drugged me with some pin and controlled me. So I don't remember anything. But I'll admit there were some things we did before I was drugged. I guess I still had feelings for her. But I swear they're gone now."

Jungkook's POV

"Minseo... How are you feeling?" I said sitting down. We both spent the day shopping for some new clothes and basically just relaxed the whole day. She wasn't as annoyed and irritated now but I knew she was still stressing about everything.

"Taehyung probably does have reasons. I mean that's what everyone keeps telling me and I want to believe that. But... Two times. Jungkook.. I didn't think I'd be able to hear his confession about the cheating with Nana. And what now? I have to listen to him and another girl.. Like.. Let's say he does have reasons.. But if he loved me, he'd stay with me no matter what." She says. She does make a good point. Maybe I should..... Just go for it. Like. I've cared and backed off for Taehyung many times. But.. Too many times.

"Minseo.. Let's date. I'm ready for it. You're right. I wanted the two of you to work out because you guys have had such a long history being together but now that you point this out. He doesn't deserve you. So give me a chance." I said and she gulps.

"Jungkook. You really mean it?"

"Yes.. I love you.." I said whispering the last part. But she heard it anyway and smiled.

"Jungkook.. What are we going to do once we get back?" She says worrying over everything but I tried thinking about it.

"Minseo.. For once, we just gotta do what we want to do. It's hard for everyone to be happy at the same time. But I just want this." I said and she smiles before running over to me. I open my arms widely before she flings herself over. We both giggle before I carry her to the bedroom.

"We're going to wait, right?"
