Never in Jungkook's life has he felt extremely awkward being in someone's presence before.

No, not with Lucas, even though he made an embarrassment of pulling a Taehyung and passing out in front of him, but with Jimin.

When him and Yeosang came back from whatever they were doing, Jimin seemed a bit more closed off as he greeted everyone here. He just said quick hello to his brother and went to his room, hasn't came out since then. It's clearly understandable that he's still mad, but he seems more a little off when he came back, or maybe Jungkook is just seeing too into it.

Yeosang only told Jungkook that Jimin just needs a breather, while still keeping his eyes looking away from him, cstill not comfortable talking to his brother after what happened this morning. Even when Jungkook tried to apologize to his brother, Yeosang would just brush it off and go with Jimin to their room, telling Jungkook to just give him his space.

By this point Jungkook has to do something.

He can't just be like this with Jimin or his brother, especially if it's New Years Eve and they're still going to be living together for a long while.

Yet he doesn't know what to say or do.

Uh he's a completed mess right now.

Not only that but Taehyung and Yoongi has been in their own little lovey bubble this whole time and that just adds to the annoyance that Jungkook feels.

So fucking fantastic.

"Too into thought little ravenette?"

Jungkook looks up from staring down at the counter at the kitchen, where he is alone while Taehyung, Yoongi and Ten talk in the living room. Lucas came into the picture now, standing in front of Jungkook with that familiar friendly smile as he looks at him.

By this point Jungkook has adjusted himself around his presence but he still gets those moments of..... Panic. It's not like he feels somethings romantic for the man, his presence alone is just.... Very overwhelming. In a good way. At the moment Jungkook's more worried about Jimin and Yeosang to go into panic mode so that just made him behave more normally.

"I'm not that small," Jungkook snickers back with his own smile, making Lucas only twitch his smile wider as he leans back against the island.

"Haha it's cute," He chuckles lowly before looking over the island behind him with the many sweets that Ten baked, "So, you seem a little distraught. Everything okay?"

Wow is it that obvious?

A nervous chuckle bubbles out of Jungkook's lips, looking down to the ground, more sure in doubt to what to say back, "Eh, it could be better," He sighs out, feeling his chest weigh more heavier, "I may have hurt someone indirectly. Just the thought of it...... Bothers me a lot."

Lucas only pays close attention to his words, humming under his breath with a slow nod, "Well, that sucks," He sighs, look at him with a confident smile, "In life we will hurt others, whether we want to or not want to. What matters is owning up to it and apologizing. Even if the person doesn't forgive you, what matters is that you reflected upon your actions and forgive yourself as well to not do it again."

Jungkook felt the pang of his words, as though he knew what was going on, slowly looking up to see Yoongi laughing with Taehyung on the couch with Ten, his bright gummy smile practically stabbing Jungkook's heart in unease with memory of last night recalling his memory.

Especially by how he looks at Taehyung, eyes complete ignited in hearts.

He really does like him..... A lot...
