Back From Past || Jikook Book 2 (Series 1)✔

Chapter 41|| Kiss

|Jimin's POV|

I walked to a gas station where I was supposed to meet Jihoon and just as I thought he was already waiting there for me. I checked the time and I was twenty minutes late, my face went pale as I was worried that the guy might be angry at me but wierdly enough he wasn't. He actually looked very happy to see me.

He waved happily at me before walking up to me and giving me a hug which I naturally returned.

"Sorry I'm late, I hope you're not too angry about it.." I say awkwardly rubbing my neck hoping the guy won't just beat me for being so damn late.

"No worries, I understand you must've been busy with something." He said casually and I felt relieved that I wasn't going to get abused today. "Do you wanna get a slushie? They sell great ones here." Jihoon suggested and I smiled as a sign of agreement before we both entered the small gas station to buy a slushie each.

After that we decided to hang out by a lake near the park to just fool around and I also wanted to help Jihoon practice the choreo. I sat on the grass observing the guy as he danced exactly as I instructed him in lessons. I felt like a proud dad who's child just won a competition or something. I know, what an exaggeration; I just couldn't help but smile at how well the guy was dancing now.

The second he finished I clapped proudly. "You improved a lot. Well done." I spoke out my thoughts as Jihoon - now out of breath - smiled happy about himself.

"I wouldn't have if it wasn't for your help. You're a great teacher." He commented and I smiled bashfully. I wasn't used to bring complimented like he always does but I couldn't just tell him to stop; he wouldn't anyways.

"Right, well sit down and calm down then. You look so out of breath you might just flop on the ground and die, I wouldn't want that." I said changing the subject a little while patting the space next to me which was soon gone because Jihoon took it up just as I suggested it to him.

"So, how are things going?" He asked after having a sip of water that I handed to him. I felt myself cringe a little as at this point very little amount of things are actually going good for me.

"Eh.. Well... they could've been better. But don't worry about it, I'll do fine." I said at first staring blankly into space but then turned to flash a smile. Jihoon looked into my eyes as if captivated as a delicate smile grew on his lips.

"You're a determined person, aren't you?"

I looked at the guy a bit confused as to why he would say that.

"Where did that come from?" I asked bluntly.

"I mean, you just seem so determined to make things work out it's kinda adorable and admirable at the same time." I blushed at his remark. God how I hated being easily embaressed like this.

"Well even if, it doesn't matter as long as I have people by my side." I explained.

"What kind of people?" He asked in pure ciriousity.

"Close friends and family of course. Who else?" I said back as if this was painfully obvious information.

"I mean.. maybe someone you love?" I froze for a second. Jungkook right now hasn't been a very good support to me so..

"Maybe occasionally.. A person you love doesn't nessecerilly needs to be always by your side." Answering the guys questions my attention was glued to Jihoons face expression as it seemed quite unreadable.

"I see.." He replied.

We sat there for another half an hour before I decided to head back home to cook some dinner. Jihoon insisted on walking me back home as he still wanted to talk a little so I agreed as I loved his presence. We talked about some random stuff and joked a lot on the way back. I enjoyed the time while it lasted as I knew that the second I would walk through the door Jungkook would begin his usual inspection to find out where I was, with who and what was I doing with or without them.

The two of came to a stop in front of the houses door and I turned to talk to Jihoon who was admiring the house. "Honestly Jihoon, I hadn't have so much fun in a long time now. It was great hanging out with you." I said honestly with seriousness in my voice. Jihoons gaze landed on mine as he analysed what I said.

"No problem. You know we can hang out whenever, I have a lot of free time when the lessons aren't on so we can always talk." He said smiling at me.

I smiled back ready to say goodbye.

"Well, it was a nice time. Goodbye.." I turned around to open the door until Jihoon called out to me once more. My body turned to look at him once again to hear him out but instead of him talking, he leaned in to me and connected our lips.

I was so taken aback I didn't move an inch.

Jihoon took a step forward trying to deepen the kiss but I didn't let him. I wanted to pull away but before I could I felt a strong grip on my arm pull me away until I crashed with something not soft but not too hard either. I looked up to see Jungkooks burning gaze on Jihoon.

"Who are you?" Jihoon asked raising and eyebrow and licking his lips as if he just ate something. I felt so confused and angry at the same time, but my anger was nothing compared to Jungkooks as his grip only tightened on my wrist by Jihoons remark.

"I think you know.." Jungkook growled. I decided to step in even if it didn't do any good but before I did Jungkook held me in place by yanking my wrist back to his side.

"Oops, guess I didn't ask if you had a boyfriend.. sorry Jiminie~" Jihoon said innocently but to Jungkook it must've been as if Jihoon was mocking him.

"Who are you actually kidding here, Jihoon?" I felt shivers run down my spine as I heard the poison in his voice as he said the latters name.

"Me? No one." He said smirking. That's when Jungkook let go of my wrist only to roughly grab Jihoons collar.

"Are you sure? Cuz your stupid smirk makes me wanna beat the shit out of you. Are you playing some kind of sick joke? What is your interest in trying to take Jimin away from me?" I felt so confused by what was happening I just stood there watching what was unfolding in front of me.

Jihoon seemed to loose his confidence as he raised his hands in a defending manner.

"Listen dude - Jungkook - whatever, all I'm doing is what was requested from me by payment." Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows while I felt a bit hurt. Was my friendship with Jihoon all a lie? Just a role he was payed to play? By who?

"Who? Who made you do it?" Jungkook asked as if he knew what I was thinking, but then again he probably wanted to know the same thing anyway.

"Oh, you know them I believe.." He said casually.

"Who - is it?" Jungkook repeated getting impatient.

"Taeyoon."

My eyes widened as the name I never thought I'd ever hear again came up. Jungkook, on the other hand let go of Jihoon and told him to go and never show up ever again. When he left I wanted to say something but Jungkook beated me to it.

"I'm gonna go speak to Taeyoon, we'll talk later." He said quickly before turning to go somewhere I wasn't sure.

I stood in front of the house watching as Jungkook takes out his phone and then brings it to his ear as he walks. Most likely calling Taeyoon who most evidentally isn't expecting Jungkook to be calling her right now.

I was worried.

Because I didn't know what Jungkook is going to say to me when he gets back..
