The Definition Of Forever (Inked Hearts 1)

Sixty

Jungkook first person pov:

New day, new week, new feelings.

Since the event of her washing out my hair that late night, I've not been able to get it out of my head. I've even had dreams where we're back in her bathroom, her fingers threading through my hair. Though in the dreams we're lying down on my bed with my head in her lap, instead of her bathroom. She smiles down at me and caresses my hair, leaning down and...

"Alright everyone!" Cheol claps his hands, pulling my attention back to the present, and away from my embarrassing thoughts. "Today we'll start adding Diana-ssi into the choreography. Starting small, we'll work on the second leg of the second verse."

"Yay, we finally get to work together!" Jimin says, giving Diana a nudge on the shoulder.

Diana lets out a shaky breath, nodding her head with wide eyes.

"You ok?" Hobi Hyung asks.

"Yeah, I just... I hope I don't screw it up." She says more to herself, and her eyes get this far off look as if going back to a memory.

"Hey, you'll do great," I say and she looks up to me. "I doubt you'll mess up more than Suga Hyung." She giggles and we walk over to where the others have gathered.

"Ok, we'll go through the second verse. The boys will start dancing, and Diana will come in on the eighth beat. All of you will dance through the middle of the pre-chorus. Any questions?" Cheol says. There's a brief moment of silence where no one says a thing, but then Cheol nods and the music begins.

***

We dance through the verse: kick, slide, spin, jump, hand clap, shoulder drop, and so on. Diana on the other hand stands a few feet ahead of us: standing, counting, waiting. That is until the seventh beat drops and she jumps back into position.

Slide, shuffle, shuffle, spin, drop down, arm out. We dance, together, as eight. Of course, Namjoon Hyung is late on the third beat, Suga Hyung puts the wrong foot out, and I almost stumble while watching Diana, but we do it, we make it through to the pre-chorus, where we freeze and stop.

"Good, good! Let's do it again!"

So we do it over... and over... and over again. Each time getting better, smoother, more comfortable. When we've gone over it for at least twenty times we stop and Jake starts explaining how we're going to continue the pre-chorus.

Basically what's going to happen, is adding in new moves with Diana: her bending to the back of the group while we continue, then her straightening up, and us lifting her by her arms up onto the now bowed backs of Tae and Jin, then she grabs my shoulders from behind me and flips over me to ground, dropping into a split.

That's supposedly where she's going to drop through the floor to another room while we do the chorus in the music video.

Whatever the case we try the new moves the best we can. But there are a few bumps in the road, such as when Jimin bumps into Tae as he's dropping down to the floor, or when Namjoon goes the wrong way and trips over Diana's leg as she's sliding down (thank goodness she's flexible and simply bent her leg to avoid it braking!).

Now, you would think that the prospect of someone flipping on your shoulders, from behind you to in front of you, would be something a little nerve-wracking. But surprisingly I feel perfectly comfortable as she grips my shoulders and puts her small body's full weight on me. She releases and lands to the ground but slips and begins to fall to the ground. Quickly I reach out with my hands and wrap my arms around her figure.

"Thanks." She says when I put her upright again.

"Don't worry about it."

I'm so caught up in the way she felt in my arms that I don't notice my Hyung's giving me looks through the mirror.

"Good! Very good! Ok, everyone that's it for the day, we'll pick it up here tomorrow!" Cheol announces. I look over to the clock on the wall and take a look at the late hour. But unfortunately, we still have a Run episode to shoot today, so I'm going to be here for a while longer.

"So," I look over at Diana who's talking to me. "You guys got a Run episode to shoot today, right?"

"Yeah. How'd you know?"

"I heard some people talking this morning."

"No, I mean, how'd you know about Run?"

She rolls her eyes and smiles, "What? Just because I'm not an official Army, I can't know what Run is?"

I feel my face flushing. "No, no, I... I mean...."

"Relax," she chuckles, "My cousins made me watch a few episodes with them."

"Yeah?"

She nods. "The one where you all were sleeping on those blow-up beanbags and you fell on the floor..." She starts laughing and the sound fills my ears.

"Yeah, that, that happened." I stutter out, not really knowing what to say. "Soooo. You heading out of here soon?" I ask changing the subject.

"I didn't realize you were so eager to be rid of me." She teases and starts walking away.

"Noona wait!" I whine and follow her out the door. Stepping into the hall, I look around but don't see her. Damn it!

"Looking for someone?"

I hear a laughing voice behind me and turn to face Diana, who's leaning against the wall, bag in hand.

Yes, you.

"So, you are leaving???" I ask out of hope that maybe she'll stay a little bit longer.

"Sheesh!! I'm going already!!" she throws her free hand up in exasperation, and starts walking down the hall.

"Noonaaaaa!!" I groan and trot after her. "You know that's not what I meant!"

"How would I? I don't even know what Run is, remember?" she teases, not looking at me.

Some sort of groan emits from my mouth and I playfully shove her shoulder, almost knocking her into a passing worker.

"Jeon Jeong-guk!" She cries, shoving me back with equal force. I laugh and criss-cross my steps to avoid getting shoved into the wall.

"You said my name," I say after a moment, quietly.

"Don't I always?" she turns to me, confused.

"No, I mean, not my stage name." I side-look at her.

"Oh......Yeah." She says a bit shyly and I can feel my steps slow down.

"Did you learn that from your cousins too?"

"No. No, that I learned on my own." She looks down and twists her head away from me.

I'm about to ask what she means when a body connects with hers and the two go crashing down to the floor, along with a stack of papers that the man was carrying.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry." The stranger speaks in English, picking himself off of Diana and offering out a hand to help her up.

"No, that's ok I wasn't looking where I was going and.." Diana pushes back her hair that was covering her face, and stops short, staring at the stranger. "Peter?"
