Someone You Love / jirose ff

Chapter Eight

. . .

❝ Always and forever
was just for a moment
'cause I was not the one
I don't know how ❞

I immediately put my phone away upon seeing the painful texts from someone i love. I chuckled bitterly. Yes, I still love him. I love a jerk like him.

But I can't bring myself to completely stop these feelings. It's been 2 years. I can't stop myself.

I tried to calm down and stop myself from crying because I'm worried that someone could walk in mistakenly. The last thing that I want to do after getting into a dating scandal is to be embarrassed in front of a colleague.

After that, I started listening to the instrumental and continued on writing. Me, being an opportunist (sometimes), I used those mean comments to my advantage to write my first verse.

After a few strokes of my pen, I was satisfied at the result. But then after that, I suddenly felt unmotivated to write. Maybe it's because I kept thinking of those words and it just made me feel worthless.

I couldn't write anything again. Honestly, I really am not looking forward for today. Except...

I don't know but something about Park Jimin made me want to see him again. I genuinely enjoyed being around him last night and he was such a big help and saved me from getting stuck in to my own song.

I waited for awhile for his reply and it didn't take long for me to receive one from him. Only to see such a silly message from him.

I just rolled my eyes at his comment before replying.

In the end, he agreed to meet up again but of course in an area where not a lot of people go to or could see me. The next thing that I don't want to happen is for people to call me a liar or something.

We decided to meet up at convenience store but this time nearer to my place. I parked the car at the said convenience store only to see Jimin already inside the store buying something.

As if he heard my arrival, he turns around and mouthed "stay there" before I could even go out of the car. I was confused but I just stayed.

After what look like he was paying for the things he bought, he steps out of the store and looks around before going in to my car at the passenger's side.

"Wow, sweetheart. This is so risky, just after that news of you having a dating scandal you'll already meet up with me? What if the people from Dispatch came after you and you didn't notice?"

"Well, I think I made sure no one is following us. I also took some unnecessary turns hoping that I could lost them if ever they are following me. And stop calling me sweetheart!" I exclaimed but he just laughed at me.

"Alright, sweetheart." He said in a teasing tone. "Here you go."

He hands me a plastic bag and when I look inside of it, I see two cans of beer and some chips to go with the beer.

"I only bought two because it looked like you were fine when you only drank two. But that's enough. You shouldn't drink more if you have work to do." He said.

"How about you, don't you have work?" I said and pointed at his plastic which has like 5 cans of beer.

"I have but," he then looks at me into my eyes, "I won't drink a lot if you say so."

The way he looked at me made me froze and I was stuck into his gaze. I couldn't even reply immediately because all I could do at that moment was to stare back into his eyes.

Even though it has been awhile, he also didn't remove his gaze onto me. He continued staring at me. I didn't know what to feel with how he looked at me but all I now is that I'm getting comfortable with him.

After awhile, I found my voice and was able to look away because I couldn't handle the staring.

"U-uhh, well I would appreciate if you don't drink as much. B-but if you want to drink a lot then t-that's fine." I said as I then look down into my hands and started to get fidgety.

"Okay. I won't drink a lot." He said.

He puts down his and my plastic bag down onto his side. He then got two cans out and opened one to give to me. I waited as he opened the other one for him so that we could hit our cans together before drinking.

Only a few minutes since Jimin was here, I was able to forget about what happened this day. The scandal and the text.

Like what he said, it's risky to meet him up just after the news of me allegedly dating where there's a higher chance that the paparazzi could be following me. And that the statement that my company would release is useless.

But still, I made a risk. Well, it's not like I am really secretly dating anyone but I know how a lot of people can be judgmental. They would judge me and accuse me of something I did not do. That's just how the public it is.

But it was worth it. Because me being with Jimin in such a short period of time can make me forget and can make me calm. Even for a short while.
