I Need U

Chapter 48

"Nuna!" Jungkook ran to him.

Siwoo crossed her arms, "Jungkook, you don't run on the dance floor." Jungkook just smiled at her.

She then shook her head and her hands reached for his bow. "When will you stop being a kid, Jungkook?" she fixed his bow. He smiled at her, "I'll stop when you stop caring for me, nuna." He answered. "Then I guess, you won't stop then." She smiled widely.

Jungkook slowly took her hand, "Nuna, for now, please don't think of me as a kid. Look at me as grown up guy." She nodded with a smile. And with that, they danced together.

Siwoo wasn't so close with Jungkook before. But after he stays at her place, she got to know his a lot better. He may looks like a grown up guy but in her eyes, he's still a child that needs attention and care from someone. He was a bright kid. That's why she couldn't believe when he told her about his family. But she knew that not everyone has a perfect family.

Jungkook was a responsible child, she knew it. He helped her with house chores and other works. Sometimes, the two of them would sit together and do their homework together. Siwoo would teach him things that he didn't understand. Being so close to her made him overprotective over her. Instead of feeling controlled, she feels grateful to have someone like him.

Jungkook stop abruptly. "Nuna, I think I might die." His eyes were shaking. "Why?" Siwoo was about to turn around but Jungkook stopped her.

"Don't look, nuna. If his stares could fire laser out from it, we would dead now." Jungkook joked. "J-Hope huh?" Siwoo guessed and Jungkook nodded with a small smile. "I should go now." Jungkook kissed the top of her head and walked away.

"So you had so much fun before me huh?" J-Hope looked at her sternly. She crossed her arms, "Don't give me that look."

"How can I not? I've been sitting there, waiting for my turn. Those boys, they're dead after this. How can they let me dance the last?" J-Hope pretended to pout.

Siwoo smiled, "That means, you're a special one." "I think so." J-Hope smiled softly.

He laced his fingers through hers. "May I have this dance, princess?" she nodded.

J-Hope rested his hand on her waist and pulled her closer. "You look extremely beautiful tonight." "And you look dashing tonight, oppa." She smiled at him.

The main lights were dimmed and the only spotlight was on them.

"I guess we are the main tonight." J-Hope said and Siwoo nodded.

The orchestra started to play again. J-Hope gently pulled her to dance along with him.

Siwoo looked into his eyes. *I can't believe that he's my boyfriend.*

She remembered their first meeting that evening. She was determined to finish her drawing of the scenery when they boys eventually saw her. She didn't want to have anything to do with the boys so she didn't answer any of their questions.

Siwoo thought that they would just let her pass. But J-Hope was the first among his friends to make an actually conversation with her on the rooftop. She was annoyed with him at first. He's a bully, that's obvious. She didn't like him as he reminded her of what Serri did to her.

He proved that he's not like Serri. He even helped her out whenever Serri attacked her. From what Jungkook told her, J-Hope used to be a talkative person but ever since he met her, he talked less and had grown to be a mature guy. Even his friends are proud with his change.

Siwoo was grateful to have him. He takes good care of her and her family. J-Hope was there for her through thick and thin. He didn't even give up when Kihyun tried to take her away. He said that he'll think of something to get her back. And he did.

Siwoo smiled.

"Why are you smiling princess?" J-Hope asked but she just shook her head.

J-Hope smiled softly as he looked into her eyes. *you're mine, Siwoo.*

*I never thought that you would accept me, Siwoo. I know you hate people like me, like Serri. I proved to you that I'm different. I never care about anybody else but my friends. Somehow, you got my attention. There's something about you that keeps me wanting to stay next to you. I never knew what it was. But know I know.*

*It's not just your smile that I like, but your love for your family, your strength to keep on living, knowing that your mother is not longer around. You always try your best for your father. I really respect you for that.*

*Siwoo, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be able to talk with my dad without arguing. He's more of a father now. He never told me what makes him wanted to change but I know it was you. He keeps on mentioning your name during our lunch that day. So I guess, you talked to him about it. I don't know what you said to him Siwoo, but I know for sure that you change my family for good.*

"And I'm really grateful for that." J-Hope suddenly said.

Siwoo looked at him with a frown. "Sorry?"

J-Hope smiled, "I love you, Bae Siwoo." He confessed. Her face went red at once. He chuckled, "Look at you. Your face would go red every time I say I love you."

Siwoo lightly smacked his chest, "That's not funny oppa."

"But really Siwoo, I love you." He repeated his words.

Siwoo smiled, "And I love you too, oppa."

J-Hope slowly bent to her height.

"Oppa, people are watching." Siwoo tried to stop him. "So what? Everyone knows that we're going to get marry sooner or later." J-Hope tried to ignore every else around.

"Still-" her words were cut when J-Hope attacked her lips.

"Ommo! Honey look at that!" Jeong Eun pulled her husband's arm. Seonggi shook his head with a soft smile.

"Look at that!" Jungkook pointed. Jin turned his head. He then quickly covered Jungkook's eyes. "You're too young for this." Jin said.

"But hyung, I watched more than this!" Jungkook tried to get his hands off his eyes.

Jimin laughed, "Make sure Siwoo don't hear that one." "I should've record it." V teased.

They all ended laughing at Jungkook.
