chapter 4 - comfort

"y/n, what happens if we get lost again?" Jungkook asked me.

"Don't worry, we won't get lost." I held on to Jungkook's hands tighter. It felt weird of me to be holding into a guy's hands like that but I might lose Jungkook if I let go.

"Thank you so much." Jungkook said as he got a bit closer to me for comfort by the look of his anxiety in this dark hallway. "H-how are you so brave?"

"My parents told me to stay strong, especially in situations like this." I replied.

"I should probably face my fears to become stronger then."

"Well there is a saying, 'Do what scares you until it doesn't', " I giggled.

Jungkook gave me a soft smile showing how he's cheered up a lot after our short conversation.

"I think we should just keep holding hands until the coast is clear. Sorry if that bothers you. I'm scared of losing you, that's all." Jungkook stared into my eyes full of determination.

Then, as me and Jungkook were into a nice conversation my legs started to hurt. I mean, I did walk a lot today! "Are you alright?" Jungkook noticed how I started walking stiffly.

"Yeah, I'm alright. My legs are just a bit aching." I acted like nothing has happened.

"You don't look alright." I surprisingly got cut off by Jungkook lifting me up on his back and giving me a piggyback ride.

"JEON JUNGKOOK!-" I shouted.

"HAHAH!" Jungkook laughed at what I said.

"Why are we acting like we know each other now? Holding hands were perfectly fine to me!"

"I just wanted to owe you one for what you did to save me." Jungkook said that so openly my heart melted on what he said. I never knew someone like that would care for me so much!

"T-thank you." I felt my cheeks start to heat up. It just felt so weird to be that close to a guy now!
