Paper Hearts (COMPLETED ✔️)

♡ SPECIAL CHAPTER ♡

Josh's POV

I stand in the middle of the house, looking at the mess I made. It seems even bigger now that I am alone. Why did she leave me alone? I should've at least drove her home. How'd she get back?! It's not safe for a young woman to be out alone after dark. Dear Lord, I pray that she made it home safely I am mad at her, but I'd hate for anything to happen to her again.

But, why would she leave me like that? Tears stream down my face. When she walked away, she took a piece of my heart with her. She could've broken up with me differently. Why after an amazing date and sex?

I trail over to my parent's mini-bar and search for my dad's Bourbon. The half-empty bottle shines up at me as I grab it carefully and begin to unscrew the top. Before downing the bottle, I grab another one and sludge over to the leather couch to drink my sorrows away while watching Family Guy.

An hour later, my head is spinning and I can feel someone grab my hand.

"It's not safe to drink your sorrows away," Her awful voice says.

I snatch the Bourbon bottle away from her.

"You were supposed to leave. Why are you tormenting me with your presence?" I ask her.

She giggles before sitting down onto my lap.

"You're drunk, Josh," She says while trailing her fingers up and down my chest. 

I close my eyes at the soothing feeling of her fingers caressing my skin. The tingly feeling gives me warmth and comfort. I want it all to be real instead of my drunk mind playing games with me. I'm afraid to open my eyes. I want her to really come back and take me back before going to Jungkook. I know that's who she'll be retreating to. He always takes way everything from me in the end.

I caught a glimpse of braids and jogged over to her.

"Jazzzzzy," I sing-song.

She continued to walk. I knew she's ignoring me. 

"Jazzzzzz, I know you hear me," I said while walking in front of her. She turned around and started fast walking.

I ran after her and when I got close to her, I snatched her phone away from her reach.

She turned around, causing her braids to swing violently. I took a step back to avoid getting hit by them. I first time I got hit by those braids, I had to keep myself from crying.

"Josh, give it back," She said annoyed.

I smirked at her and held it up high. She scrunched her nose and jumped up to try to reach it. When she landed her jump, I pulled her towards me by her raised arm. I spun her around and began to dance with her in the hallway like she's Cinderella.

"Josh, stop it! You're embarrassing me," She said while I dipped her head down.

"But you look so cute when you're flustered," I responded while smiling down at her.

I noticed the side of her mouth quivering as if she's trying not to smile.

"You're smiling at me, don't hide it babygirl."

She puckered her lips and turned her gaze away from mine. I pulled her back up to my chest.

"Awwwww, Jazzy, I have that effect on you," I cooed.

"Stop calling me that and heck naw," She said before a smile broke out onto her face.

"There it is," I said while smiling.

She covered her mouth when I let go of her hand.

"You don't deserve to see this smile," She said before taking a step back.

"But I already did," I responded smile smirking down at her.

We were soon interrupted by Andres and Damian. Andres draped his arm around Jaz before telling me, "Hey Josh, I need to steal Jaz real quick".

"What for?" I asked while looking at Damian who was glaring at me.

Damian scoffed. "I don't think you'd be too happy," He said before looking over her shoulder.

I followed his gaze and saw Jungkook around the corner where the stairs are for the history hall. He looked nervous and he had his arms placed behind his back. He starred at Jaz the whole time while I sent daggers towards him. Does this guy ever realize my hatred towards him?

"I rather be anywhere but your presence, Josh," Jaz said while glaring up at me and crossing her arms.

Damian snickered and Andres covered his mouth with his fist in response to what Jaz said.

"Come on Jaz, let's go," Andres said before leading Jaz to where I think she'll be going.

I leaned against the wall behind me to watch what Kook is cooking up. Damian patted Kook on the back before going up the stairs behind them with Andres. 

Jungkook's gaze followed them before returning it back to Jasmine. I could tell she was nervous since she kept shifting her stance. Jungkook bit onto his lip before his lips began moving. From where I was, I couldn't make out what he was saying, but based on how his face was turning a shade darker as the seconds passed, I knew he was asking her out.

Jasmine held onto her backpack straps while she nods her head...yes. NO, this can't be. I wanted Jaz to MY girlfriend and she went for the dude who hasn't even been here for that long? I watched as my jealously engulfed my whole body. First, he became captain of the freshman football team and plays varsity, as a freshman! That was my dream. I worked my butt off so hard to receive that type of recognition. Everyone adored him and coaches are constantly trying to recruit him for their teams. Second, his little scrawny a$$ aways pins me first in wrestling, like how the h3ll is somebody that little stronger than me?!

Jasmine hugged Jungkook tightly while he hesitantly returned the hug.

I took long, angry, strides over to the new couple.

"Got a new girlfriend, Kook?" I asked.

"Uh, no, not yet at least. Why?" He asked with his bug eyes.

"It looked like you asked out Jasmine," I responded.

Jasmine turned around with arms crossed. I noticed that her braids did not swing like they always did with me. 

"And he did. Got a problem with it, Josh?" She said while looking up at me with attitude.

I want to say yes and ask why she'd go out with somebody who barely spoke English, but I saw Damian and Andres at the top of the stairs looking like they'd be ready to pounce on me if they needed it.

I shove my hands in my pocket and walked away from them. It disgusted me, seeing them like that.

The memory still makes me clench my fists tightly. He took her from me and soon left her in agony. I was the one who helped her through those tough times. I made her my girlfriend and showed her the best in me. I didn't want her to remember me as that annoying a$$hole she saw me as during our Freshman year of high school. Who would've known that Jungkook would come prancing back to her from Korea, ready to steal her from me once again?

I hate you, Jungkook Jeon, please go back to Korea. You hurt Jasmine once and to hell with you if you do it again.

______________________________________

Yes! A nice short pov of Josh. I felt like you guys should know a little bit of how he felt and still feels about Jungkook. He never expressed these feelings to Jasmine but made it obvious that he didn't like talking about him. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed that short story.

-Love y'all,
