Seven Takes

Part 2

‘Noona,’ he said suddenly. Those words sent shivers down her spine. Nana looked up at his eyes and saw a serious gleam in his eyes. ‘Can I call you Noona?’

 ‘J-Jungkook-shi,’ Nana said in a nervous voice, ‘why…’

She felt his hand touch her face, caressing her skin.

 ‘Because I want you,’

Those words escaping from those luscious lips accompanied by his serious youthful eyes could not have felt more liberating. It was the strangest feeling. As if a boundary had been crossed and it felt so good.

‘Jungkook-shi,’ Nana let out those words slowly as he moved closer to her and she backed herself against the wall.

Nana felt his hands reaching over to touch the sides of her face and continued down to caress her cheeks. Something in her stomach was churning. It was a sensation she was very familiar with and she let her consciousness blurred. She felt the burning sensation on her cheeks as his fingers moved slowly to her lips.

Nana wondered if it was that she missed this feeling, this unworldly sensation, or that she felt a subconscious excitement by this new found development. All she knew for sure was that she was enjoying every minute of it.

Jungkook was leaning over until his face was inches closer to hers. A word escaped his lips in almost a faint whisper. But she could hear it loud enough to make her world spin out of control.

‘Noona…’

The door suddenly blew open and they both jerked to see a young boy walked into the office. Jungkook quickly moved away from Nana and blushed.

‘Su… Suga hyung,’ Jungkook stammered as the young boy stood with a gaping in the doorway. He saw.

‘Jungkook,’ Suga said with a surprised face, ‘I… the…’ He couldn’t seem to find his words.

Jungkook passed a nervous look at Nana and she turned away.

‘We are leaving for the next schedule and the manager… asked me to get you….’ Suga said in a deflated tone.

Jungkook fixed his bowler hat, took one last glance at Nana, and sprinted towards his hyung.

‘Let’s go’ he said, as he dragged Suga by the arm and left the office.

Nana let out a sigh and snapped her back against the wall. Her heart was beating uncontrollably. She felt, all of the sudden, breathless.

As she tried to regain her consciousness, she saw the image of Jungkook on her laptop screen. Jungkook’s expression a few seconds ago was a lot different than what she saw on that photo. He was a completely different man.

Jungkook’s looked down at the floor as his hyung stood next to him, waiting for the elevator. He tried to hide his red face with his cap.

‘Jungkook’ Suga said suddenly. Jungkook looked up.

‘Hyung understands the feeling of being young and seeing a beautiful woman in front you,’ Suga began, ‘I’ve been there, done that. But there are certain boundaries we can’t cross, Jungkook-ah.’

Jungkook looked up at the ceiling and sighed.

‘Hyung,’ he started, ‘araseo-yo… I know.’

Nana walked out from her meeting with the manager to talk about the photo shoot. It had been 2 weeks since she last saw hot blooded young boys she took pictures of. It had been 2 weeks since the encounter of Jungkook. And as much as she tried to dismiss it, she could not stop thinking about him.
