Jungkook took a chance as they strode down the street toward Haeundae Bistro and gently grasped Y/N's hand. She seemed surprised but didn't pull away.

She was gorgeous in a simple black dress that stopped just above her knees and heels that added about two inches to her height. The scoop-neck top showed a tempting bit of cleavage. Gold stud earrings and a necklace with an oval locket completed her outfit, and understated makeup enhanced her facial features. 

Her hair was pulled off her neck and into a bun—one he wanted to mess up by holding her by it while she gave him another blowjob. Thank fuck he'd taken the edge off of his desire for her earlier in the shower. Otherwise, he would've said to hell with dinner and convinced her to go to his apartment for lots of dirty sex. They would need some decent sustenance, though, if it were anything like the other night.

Her gaze took in their surroundings. "It's been a long time since I walked through downtown Busan. Some businesses have changed, but that seafood place has been there for a long time."

"Yeah, I remember going there after school when I was a kid—so it's definitely been there for at least twenty-five years. The original owner's son took over when the guy retired." He could get so used to this, wandering around Busan with Y/N by his side, just talking and enjoying each other's company. "How often do you get a chance to visit?"

She hesitated a moment before responding. "Not as often as I would like. My parents and I occasionally came here for weddings, funerals, and family reunions. My aunt, who just passed away, visited us in Seoul a lot, and I stay in touch with the rest of my extended family through social media. But I wish I could see them more often—especially my cousin, Lia. She's like the sister I never had."

"I get it. Being that far away from those you're close to must be hard. Most of my family still lives in the area. My youngest sister—there are three of them—lives about an hour away. It's still close enough for her to come here or for us to go there with little notice. You said your mom's out in Seoul with you, right?"

"Yeah. She just amm.. moved into her own space and it's only about fifteen minutes from my condo, so we see each other all the time."

"That's great." He brought them to a stop. "Here we are."

____

The tables by the back windows, where they could enjoy a large landscaped yard with a gazebo and a pond with a fountain in the middle. It all belonged to the Kims, and they often hosted small weddings and other events there.

"Wow, this is beautiful," Y/N said as Jungkook pulled out a chair for her.

"Isn't it? Wait until it gets darker—the lights will come on outside, and it looks like something out of a fairy tale."

He sat across from her as their waiter approached, wearing black dress pants, a crisp white button-down shirt, and a sapphire tie. "Good evening, Mr. Jeon, ma'am. Can I get you something from the bar?"

"Hi, Chris. I'll have a Glenfiddich on the rocks. Y/N, would you like an old-fashioned or something else?"

Facing the waiter, she asked, "Do you have a Pinot Gris?"

"Yes, we have two. King Estate from Oregon, and Franz Keller from Germany."

"I'll have a glass of the King Estate, please."

When Chris left to get their order, Jungkook smiled at Y/N. "It seems we have a similar taste for wine. That's one of my favorites."

Her face lit up. "I came across it about years ago and haven't been disappointed with a single year since."

"Same here."

Throughout their meal, they chatted like old friends, and once more, Jungkook got the impression that he knew her from another time and place, but he still couldn't recall when or where. It wasn't as if he would've had many opportunities to meet her since she lived in Seoul and only came to Busan on rare visits. 

It didn't matter, though—he would enjoy her company while he could. In a few weeks, she'd be gone again, and all he would have left were the memories of their time together, as disappointing as it was.

He would miss her something awful. Never had he connected with a woman so quickly before. Yeah, some women in the past had held his interest for a while, and a few he'd dated for extended periods. But he'd always known he was only passing his time with them until the relationships fizzled out. With Y/N, he didn't want whatever it was between them to go that route. For once in his life, he wanted something more, and it was with a woman he'd barely known for a few days.

"Can I interest you in a nightcap?" he asked Y/N after signing for the check and leaving Chris a generous tip for his excellent service, as usual.

"I think you could." Her seductive smile went straight to his groin, causing his cock to twitch.Something that was difficult to do whenever he was with Y/N. He just had to be in the same room as the woman, and desire would hum through him.

Standing, he took her hand and helped her to her feet. Once they were outside, he said, "I have to stop into the pub for a few minutes and make sure everything is running smoothly. I'm pretty sure it is because I didn't get any text messages saying otherwise, but I'd still like to stop in if that's okay."

"That's fine. I don't mind."

Twenty minutes later, Jungkook was reassured all was well at the J' grill and watched Y/N's heart-shaped ass sway as she preceded him up the stairs to his apartment. His hands itched to smack one of the cheeks to see if it bounced like he thought it would. It was too soon into the relationship to try that without discussing her kinks and pet peeves, but that didn't stop him from thinking about it.

Relationship. Sigh. If only he could use that label to describe what was going on between them. But with an end date getting closer by the minute, he would have to settle for words like affair or fling.

Putting those thoughts out of his mind, he unlocked the door and followed Y/N inside. Before she could get more than a few steps away, he gently grabbed her elbow, kicked the door shut, then pushed her against the wall. Bending, he brushed his lips over hers, waiting for a response before taking things further. When she wrapped her arms around his neck and opened her mouth, that was all the invitation he needed.

Jungkook ravaged her mouth as he cupped one breast before teasing the hard, little bud hiding behind too many layers of clothes. The caveman in him almost ripped the dress from her body in desperation.

"Meow!"
