Eyes With Secrets

16

"Please don't scare the girl, Kook!" Tae said. He then smiled and threw a wink at me. I couldn't help but smile back at his beautiful face.

Mun and Jungkook also laughed seeing my reaction.

"So, you're close to Seonghwa, huh?" Jungkook asked in the friendliest way possible.

"Yes."

"Would you tell me to what extent he has told you about our kind, dear?" he asked and flashed a smile at Tae who was right beside him now.

'Dear?' Oh my god!

"He hasn't 'told' me much. He gave me hints and I figured it out for myself." I replied, managing not to show that I was intimidated.

"Hmm. You see our secret is not supposed to be known to the outside world. But we have made exceptions for two humans till date." Jungkook said, his perfect angelic voice ringing through the shop.

I knew Mun was in on the secret, but Jungkook had mentioned 'two' people. Who was the second person? "Two humans?" I asked him.

"Yes."

"Mun and?"

"There was a human, a girl, in Forks, a town near Washington. There is a coven there. A vampire there falls in love with this girl. They both do, with each other. She was let in on the secret. She too just like you figured it out herself."

Oh they were talking about Bella Swan.

"How do you know about this secret?" I asked. I knew who this girl was. But why would the Cullens tell them about a human falling in love with one of them?

"Our father, Hamin is a very close friend of Carlisle Cullen, the father of the coven. They were facing a trouble, regarding her being a human, a few years back and one of his sons along with his wife came to us asking for help. But we had to refuse as we were newborns and our parents couldn't fight alone. We felt really bad for abandoning them in their time of need." Tae said, sadness for having to refuse help to the Cullens, visible in his tone.

"And who changed Bella into a vampire?" I asked.

"Huh?!" Tae gasped. So did Mun.

"How do you know about BELLA?!" Jungkook asked me.

"Oh." That was when I realized that they hadn't actually said her name. It was me. I knew who it was. They had never disclosed it to me. "Seonghwa mentioned it." I said feeling a bit guilty for making Hwa the bad guy here.

"Hmm. Park Seonghwa!" Tae said.

"So? What are you guys going to do about me?" I asked feeling a bit scared. Of course I was scared of death!

"What about you?" Jungkook asked and flashed his beautiful smile at me. "We're going to let you in on the secret. Just as we did with Bella and Mun."

"That's extremely kind! The fact that you guys would break the rules of your kind just for me is..."

"There's a reason why we're doing this, dear." Tae said.

"A reason?" I asked.

"You're giving too much away Taehyung!" Jungkook said.

"What is he giving away? Am I missing out on something here?" Mun asked. She didn't know what they were talking about either.

"Can you tell me the reason?'

A smirk spread across Tae's face. "You'll come to know. Later."

"Huh?"

"We should probably get going." Tae said. "Jungkook? Kook?"

Tae then turned towards his brother. That was when Mun and I looked at him too. He was staring intently at something behind the two of us. He had an expression on his face that couldn't be described. Almost like a blind man seeing light for the first time after he had gotten back his sight.

I turned back. So did Mun. We saw Areum standing right there a few feet behind us, staring just like how Jungkook was, at him. Both Jungkook's and Areum's eyes were locked on each other.

Jungkook stepped in between me and Mun. We moved apart and turned ourselves to face Jungkook, who was now walking towards Areum. I felt Tae walk to Mun's side and place his arm around her waist.

"Hi. I'm Jeon Jungkook." Jungkook said to Areum and flashed a wolfish grin at her. He was obviously interested. Very interested.

"I, uhm, I'm Kim Areum." She said. All four of saw that she was breathless. Mun and I could relate to that.

"It's nice to meet you. Tae had told me a bit about you, but I hadn't thought you would be this...pretty...." Jungkook was flirting! With Areum. They would be so good together. I couldn't help but smile at the two of them.

"It's a pleasure to meet you too" she replied. She was blushing!

"Kook! We've got to get going. Jimin is waiting for us." Tae said to his brother.

Jimin was here?! He was in Seoul?! Why hadn't he come to school then?! He was definitely avoiding me! I couldn't take it anymore. I had to know where he was!

"Where is Jimin?" I asked to Tae and Jungkook. "Huh, Jungkook? Tae? Where is he?" the sternness I had in my voice in the beginning had vanished when I said Jimin's name. It was more of a 'please tell me, guys' kind of question.

They didn't say a word. Both of them smiled at me. Why were these two smiling?

And then Jungkook spoke. "Hyunho, please, call me Kook." He said and both him and Tae rushed out through the door, while I stood there motionless staring at the door they had walked out of a few seconds ago.

Call him Kook? That wasn't what I asked! Ugh! Anger was effing through me now.

"We have got to find you a dress, Park Hyunho! C'mon! Hurry! We have to pick a dress now, if we want to reach the hotel in time for our reservations." Mun said.
