fourteen: let me know

"Suddenly, rain wells up in my eyes
You well up, I see you even when I breathe. Love blooms like cherry blossoms but burns and becomes ashes. Maybe we're all just a bunch of fools. Everyone lives with a love that has come to an end."

//

it's another day and lately, everyone has been spending more time together.

due to the scheduled events of Shira's upcoming wedding, the friendship group have taken holidays from work. Jungkook and Jimin regularly visit Two Euphoric Hearts and the florist next door. as business men, they need to make sure it's all in order.

many have resorted to staying at Jin's mansion like house. the empty rooms and space have finally been given a purpose. the older male didn't get a say but didn't mind waking up to his dining table filled with his family everyday. good fucking morning's and good fucking night's from Elianna, Talulah's snoring, Hoseok's pillow forts with Es which end up being collapsed by Namjoon, Jimin watching Jin and Jungkook cook but not making any attempt to help before wandering off to grab Taehyung and Yoongi so they can play mario kart.

Elianna personally loves the feeling. it's like a never ending sleepover. this is her true family, she thinks whenever she wakes up because of their loud banter and bickering. the fact that Yoongi is there makes it even better, the boys and girls are starting to welcome him and Maeve a lot more. the only missing piece is the tension with Jungkook that they've been avoiding.

she opens her eyes, squinting as she glares at her phone. it's four am and she's abruptly woken up by the storm outside. her throat feels dry so she gets out of the bed (Shira on the other side of it) and steps over Talulah and Taehyung's limbs on the floor. she makes her way to the kitchen, slipping on her socks as the girl walks.

Elianna fills a glass of water for herself as she leans against the counter. a figure moves in front of the fridge and she jumps, splashing water on her face accidentally. "god! you scared me." she groans.

Jungkook stills too, closing the fridge as he holds a bowl of snacks. shit, he mumbles as he looks equally surprised by her presence.

Elianna continues to drink her water in the darkness of the kitchen. the only light that's present is from outside of the window, black skies present but moonlight shining. she blinks and stares at Jungkook who's shirtless. he continues to stand in front of her, hair disheveled as he munches slowly but awkwardly. it doesn't ease the tension, it makes it worse when the female can't stop her eyes from moving across his slender figure, prominent biceps, abs and...

"put on a shirt." she grumbles.

"okay." he obliges and grabs his shirt from a spinning stool.

Elianna watches Jungkook as he attempts to speak to her. he bites the inside of his mouth, opening and closing as he tries to say what's on his mind. he's rehearsed for so long but he physically can't. she raises her brows in an intimidating manner, hand still holding her glass.

Jungkook forces himself to look at Elianna. although the brown intensity of their eyes is hard to see, the emotions of desire, nostalgia and affection suffocate them. they can't see each other but they can feel everything. "can we talk?" he asks quietly. his voice is the only thing heard in the dim kitchen as he stands with an uneasy look.

the way he asks is so gentle.

Elianna feels her chest tighten as she places her cup away. she can't help her stubborn attitude. Jungkook's one of the only people who hasn't gotten sick of her. his patience with her was and still is unreal. "no, we can't talk."
