heart beats ✔️ [complete]

chapter 19

jjg POV

it's been 4 days since tae and I's fight.

I may have totally over reacted but, the way he said what he said made me think that he thought I was some kind of player. that he couldn't believe or trust me. That was like a stab in the heart.

I wanna forget it. I doubt he's going to ever want me back nor would he let me. It's fine it's probably better off that way.

taehyung is absent and so I've been able to hang out with all my other friends a lot more recently. It's fun it really is.

we are outside playing basket ball during break.

"someone sub for me. I'm getting water!" I yelled and walked out the court.

I took my time over towards the fountain and as I leaned down for a drink, I could feel someone's presence close to me. I whipped my head over and saw no one. but I know for a fact someone was watching me cause I can hear their breathing.

since the fountain was connected to one of the walls of the school building, I jogged over to the edge where one wall ended.

I popped up around the corner to give whoever it was a spook and a girl whose fringe covered her eyes gasped whilst covering her mouth.

I widened my eyes not expecting to see her but then again, who would I be expecting?

"uh hi? did you want to talk to me or something? I thought I saw you look at me." I asked nicely, gently moving the fringe away from her eyes. She stood there in shock and I just chuckled.

"jeon jeongguk!" she exclaimed while shutting her eyes tight and fists balled up. "please go out with me!" she yelled and I couldn't help but laugh a bit so I covered my mouth.

wow, so straight forward.

"whoa whoa slow down. what's your name?" I asked and she opened her eyes again, shyly meeting mine.

"just call me eunmi.." she pouted while looking away.

"well nice to meet you eunmi. what makes you want to date me?" I asked her just to tease.

"c-cause... I've had a crush on you for a while. Even before you got super popular!" she exclaimed like a little kid

"so what brings you to ask me now?" I asked

"well cause your alone now. Before I was too shy to ask you but then you and kim taehyung got close and wouldn't leave each other's side or you were with a group of friends." She said and the name 'kim taehyung' made my heart ache. I winced a bit when I heard it.

"ah I see. look, I'm not sure if I'm ready to date anyone right now." I said and her brows furrowed in concern.

"how come? am I not pretty enough?" she said while looking down and pouting.

"no no not at all! it's just, I kinda have my eyes on someone right now.. or actually," I sighed "... I mean I just don't think I'm ready to date someone right now. I was just heart broken recently." I smiled and her eyes looked sorry.

"what's her name! I'll tell her what's up!" she yells and I laughed

"no it's fine. we just, are having problems and I screwed up. It was my fault. I just want to forget about it for a bit." I continued to smile even though it really hurt me to.

she paused for a second before speaking up again.

"well is there anything I can do to help you?" she asked genuinely concerned

"haha no I don't think-" I stopped myself for a second. yknow what? fuck it. I don't care anymore. "actually sure. how down are you to help me?" I asked raising a brow.
