My Person | pt. 2

"Wait!" He stopped her from taking another step.

Eunji turned around in surprise, glancing down on his hand that was now holding her wrist. Jungkook realized his sudden actions and quickly dropped her hand in embarrassment.

"Ah choesonghamnida. May I...may I know your name?" Jungkook asked. He didn't know why, but he didn't want to just let this girl walk away. There was no harm in knowing her name, right?

Eunji felt her cheeks get hot, "I-I'm Kim Eunji. And you?"

"M-me?" Jungkook stuttered. "O-oh I'm Jungkook er...Lee Jungkook."

Lee Jungkook? Like the prince? Eunji found that slightly odd but decided not to question it. Maybe his family loved the royal family so much they wanted to name their son after the crowned prince.

"I'm afraid I've never seen you before Lee Jungkook," Eunji said. "Are you new here?"

Jungkook hesitantly nodded, "Ah yes, I'm here to visit my...uncle. I've never been to one of these parties."

"Oh really? I haven't been to one like this in a long time," Eunji said, looking over to the crowd of people. Even if she dressed like them, it didn't mean that she was like them. "To be honest, I wouldn't have come if it weren't for my friend."

Jungkook chuckled, "I came here with my friend too."

"That's nice. How long do you plan on staying here?" Eunji asked, finding it interesting that they were both here for similar reasons.

Jungkook scratched his head nervously, "Um...for a few weeks I suppose."

"I see," Eunji nodded. "Well I hope you enjoy your time here."

Jungkook looked down at his feet, "Th-thank you. I-I will."

Eunji covered her mouth as she chuckled. He's a shy thing wasn't he? Before she could say anything else, Soo-young had come back to her.

"Okay Eunji-yah, I'll stop tormenting you by keeping you here any longer. We can go home now," She said. Soo-young couldn't stop smiling as she tugged on Eunji's arm.

Eunji nodded, "Oh okay."

Turning back to Jungkook who was still standing in front of her, she gave him a smile she hoped looked grateful.

"Thank you again for saving me," She said. Soo-young blinked twice, looking at the man Eunji was talking to. What had happened while she was gone?

Jungkook bowed his head, "I would do it again any day, Lady Eunji. I hope we meet again."

"I would like that," Eunji found her smile grow.

She felt elated that such a handsome man wanted to see her again. After saying bye once more, Eunji headed out of the club with Soo-young. Of course, Soo-young asked an endless number of questions.

"Who is he? Why were you talking to him? How did he make you smile like that?"

Eunji let out an exasperated smile, "Aish he's just a stranger who stopped another stranger from bothering me. It was only right of me to thank him."

"Aw that was so sweet of him," Soo-young nudged her friend's elbow. "He must really like you."

Eunji shook her head, "Ani. We are nothing but strangers to each other. I wouldn't even consider him an acquaintance."

"But I saw the smile on your face when he was talking to you," Soo-young said, insisting that Eunji had a crush on Jungkook. "I know better than anything that it was a smile of love."
