Holding Me Back

Chapter 4

Jongkook's POV

I closed the door to my room and scoffed.

"Ah...this girl is annoying. I was only trying to help but she just had to piss me off," I complained to myself and took a towel to shower.

I unknowingly laughed as I thought back about how Somin was during the practice.

Somin's POV

I walked to the kitchen as my stomach grumbled. I looked through the cabinet,only to find cereals and proteins. "Not a single packet of ramyeon?" I thought to myself in disbelief.

"What are you looking for?" A voice came from behind me. I turned around to see Jongkook with his wet hair, dressed in a white tshirt and short pants.

His white tshirt was very see-through, I must say. His defined abs and muscles can clearly be seen,which made my cheeks automatically warm.

I cleared my throat. "Ramyeon. Don't you atleast have one packet?" I asked pleadingly, hoping to hear the answer I want. "You know I don't eat ramyeon, Somin-ah," He answered casually.

I pouted and went abit closer to him. "Don't lie, oppa. I'm literally starving," I pleaded while rubbing my belly in circles. He chuckled and shook his head in disbelief.

"Fine, there is a packet of ramyeon hidden in the very back of the cabinet," He pointed to the cabinet right above my head. "Oppa,you've got to be kidding me. I'm not that tall to reach there," I crossed my arms.

He gave me a smug smile and shrugged. "Get it yourself. This is the payback for pushing away my offer to massage your feet," He walked away and sat on the sofa.

"You're such a mean person," I purposely said that with my back towards him.

I stepped backwards and tiptoed. I saw the red packet of ramyeon noodles. I gulped my saliva and reached for it. My hands searched and tapped on the cabinet, yet I can't seem to feel or hear the packet of the noodles.

"You're such a mess, Somin," I felt someone hovering above me as my back felt Jongkook oppa's chest and his arms were reaching for the packet of ramyeon noodles.

My heart pounded as the distance between us was so close. He finally backed away as he found the ramyeon packet. I let out a sigh of relief.

"Me? A mean person? Guess who got this ramyeon packet for you? Yeah, me," He proudly said that and widened his eyes for me to look.

I can't seem to say anything as my heart was still pounding from the situation.

"I...I am gonna shower,oppa," I avoided his gaze and walked away from him.

I went into the guest bathroom and quickly placed my hand over my heart,only to feel it going crazily fast.

"Somin, don't you need your bag full of toiletries?" I heard Jongkook oppa's voice through the door. He knocked on the door. I opened the bathroom door and took my bag.

"Thank you," I gave him a small smile.

I showered quickly and used the towel I brought from home.  I took my denim short pants and wore it instead of wearing the same long pants.

My long pants and red tshirt was soaked with sweat,which made me cringe by thinking of wearing it again.

"Oh no,a shirt. I didn't bring a shirt," I facepalmed myself.

Jongkook's POV

As Somin showered, I did a favor and cooked the ramyeon noodles. I cut some green onion and added some kimchi.

As I mixed the noodles, I heard Somin calling me.

"Jongkook oppa!" Somin shouted. "Yes?" I answered. "What do I do? I don't have a shirt with me," She softly said.

"What?"  I sighed and went into my room to pick a decent shirt for her.

"Isn't everything too big for her?" I looked through my closet only to find clothes that would look oversized on her.

I took a plain purple tshirt and quickly gave her the shirt. I turned off the stove and poured the noodles in a bowl. I placed it on the table and grabbed a glass of water for Somin.

Somin's POV

I looked at the shirt Jongkook oppa gave to me. "Huh? This shirt will look big on me," I said to nyself. I wore it and it reached beyond my shorts, which made it look like I'm only wearing a shirt.

"Ah, whatever," I went out and used my towel to dry my hair.

Narrator's POV

As Jongkook lifted his eyes off his phone, his heart pounded loudly for a second.

He looked at Somin who looks weirdly cute in his big shirt. He could still see that she is wearing her short pants but with his shirt on her, it looked as if she's wearing a dress.

Unknowingly, Jongkook was suppressing his wide smile at what he's seeing.

"Why do you work out so much? Your muscles got so big, it stretched your shirt," Somin couldn't see his reaction as she fiddled with his clothes. The arm sleeves reached to her elbows and the shirt covered her short pants.

"Why not? You look cute like that," Jongkook blurted out.
