CHAPTER 37

My eyes are blind
But they'll soon see why
You're like a sun to me
In this empty sky

You blew your hair away from your face as you curled your eyelash, putting on some eyeliner and a pretty little lip balm. You looked at yourself, dressed up as casually as possible, looking like an emo Demogorgon in your eyes. You're trying too hard, Y/N. You thought to yourself. And it's showing, idiot.
"Why am I even doing this, huh?" You asked nobody but yourself, throwing your hands in the air and fixing your hair once again. It was true that you had completely forgotten about the blind date already mentioned in your journal while texting with Tyla, but you had finally recalled it this morning. Here we go, Jeon Jungkook. Time to be surprised. You internally facepalmed while looking in the mirror, wanting to fly away from the situation.
A little 'ting' of the bell alarmed you, pulling you out of your thoughts and making you a bit nervous. You rushed towards the door and fixed your hair once again. Okay, it's time. Act surprised.
You opened the door with a nervous expression, only to find a man with a box in his hand, smiling at you hugely. You smiled back, a forced smile, internally cringing at the fact that you thought that the delivery man was Jungkook and became eager.
"Your package" he handed it to you and you nodded, thanking him and closing the door. The smile immediately wiped off your face, an annoyed expression taking over. "Stop being desperate!" You kept talking to yourself while keeping the box on the table of the drawing-room. You were nervous, definitely, but didn't want to admit that.
You went towards the kitchen and grabbed a pack of Cheetos, opening it and eating it up. You were very hungry, and not interested in waiting for the 'date guy' just to suppress your appetite. Might as well eat something before he comes, you never know he may leave you at your house after seeing your face. Especially after the other night, where according to him, you, a random girl, started caressing his face in the middle of the night while he was drunk.
Stuffing a few chips in your mouth you sighed, looking away before staring at your phone. The wallpaper.

You chuckled a bit before removing it and putting a picture of you and Taru rather than the former one. Just precautions, you thought. You couldn't let Jungkook see your ARMYness. You just didn't want him to know that here you were, staring at the seven men like a lovestruck fool for about twelve hours a day. The bell rang again, catching your attention instantly.
Probably the garbage guy. You rolled your eyes and went on to open the door with an uninterested expression. "Yes?" You asked with a tired voice, a chip halfway in your mouth. As soon as you opened the door, you eyes widened before you shut it on the man's face. You quickly munched the chips and wiped your face causing the pink lip balm to smudge. You whined like crazy before grabbing a napkin and wiping off the extra and threw it away in the dustbin.
You opened the door again, the tall guy standing with an eyebrow cocked up. "I'm so sorry" you chuckled nervously before opening the safe door as well. "I was... Having a moment" you softly muttered before he shook his head. "Good Morning" you chimed. "It's a surprise to see you here...?" You quickly said, remembering that even though you knew Jungkook was your blind date, he didn't know you were his'.
"Um... Yeah, Hello" he bowed down with a worried smile before awkwardly looking around "... I think Taru gave me the wrong address... I... Uh" He started searching for his phone in his pockets in the lobby itself. "I was supposed to meet someone, actually, definitely not a date-" "Would you like to come in?" You softly asked and he nodded. He got inside and you closed the door behind him, shutting your eyes and shaking your head to compose yourself. Your phone rang right when Jungkook was calling Taru, the phone on his ears. "She is probably busy" he nervously let out looking at you and you nodded with an uncomfortable smile before picking up your own phone.
"Is he there?" Taru chimed from the other side, and you rolled your eyes. "Yeah..." You softly muttered, followed by a giggle from her. "Ohkays. He's calling me, but I won't pick up. Don't take my name in front of him or he'll know I'm talking to you." she said and you sighed. "Bye, Taru" you said to her, annoyed but in a sing song voice because you did exactly what she didn't want. "You're a bitch. Anyway, have fun, darling" she said from the other side and you quickly pressed the red button. Soon enough Jungkook was looking at your face. He shrugged off the thought before he started to text Taru instead.
"Hey, Jungkook?" You softly spoke and he glanced at you with big eyes. "Blind date?" You asked and he tilted his head a little, blinking. "11 o clock?" You said again, fiddling with your fingers. "Yup, that's me" you finally let it out and his eyebrows raised. "What?" He seemed completely taken aback and you shrugged a little, ready to be embarrassed just like you imagined. "Oh goodness" he put his fingers on his eyelids, internally cursing Taru.
"Look, it's totally okay if you don't wanna go or something like that you can always go back home and I'll not complain I promise I won't even tell Taru just... you don't have to do this and-"
"Y/N-ssi?" He softly said and you stopped, biting your lips. "You're rambling" he smiled sweetly and you breathed out, looking away with embarrassment. "I just... " he said, breaking the ice and you raised your eyebrows. "I wanted to apologize and say I'm sorry," He added and you frowned. "For what?" You asked. "I was totally out of my senses the last time we met. I really couldn't think straight until I woke up the next day, and when I remembered about it in the morning I wanted to meet you but before I could apologize, you had left the hotel. Not exactly an ideal meet if you'd ask me." He said with a small voice, stuttering, unlike his usual behaviour.
"It's fine" you smiled sweetly. "I don't want you to be apologetic," you replied and he stood there with a vague expression. "Please take a seat." you smiled before grabbing a glass and giving him some water. "I actually do not mind. I understand you weren't exactly concious so believe me, it happens. If you don't wanna talk about it, we can totally pretend it never happened if you like" you flashed a grin and he gulped down the water with a small smile. "Moreover, I don't think this date is a good idea. So we can just... ignore this. Taru didn't know about everything anyway, you know." you stated and he quickly interrupted.
He chuckled a little before standing up and leaving the house. You looked at the door weirdly when it closed behind him, and rolled you eyes. Did he really run away without saying a good bye? Like is he that much of an idiot? You were too shocked even to react so you kept staring at the door for a solid minute. Then you looked away, realising the situation and how like an idiot you were expecting him to come back.
You were just putting away the glass in which he were drinking water when somebody knocked on the door. You frowned, done with all this shit. You took quick, angry steps towards the door and opened it just to find a Jungkook again but... wait a second, something was different. He was wearing a black mafia jacket, standing there as if some model. Even his eyeglasses were replaced by sunglasses. "Yes?" you asked, too taken aback. "Is this 155M, Twilight Apartments?" he asked, taking off his sunglasses with a weird arrogant frown making him look kinda hot but his pronunciation of twilight making it funny.
"Hmm?" He asked again when you kept staring at his idiotic behavior and didn't reply. "Y-Yes" You said and he nodded. "You... You know I have a bell, right? You can just umm... you don't need to kno-" You said shaking your head with a small smile and he nodded. "I Know" He interjected. "Yeah..." You said, awkwardly licking your lips. "May I?" He asked and you nodded quickly "Oh yeah! Come in, please!" You said, moving away and playing along.
"Hello, miss. I am Jeon Jungkook. A member of a boy band called BTS. You might've heard the name," he extended his hand for you to shake and you took it, smiling like a silly. "I am Y/N. Just Y/N. Not too famous, but I grab some attention" you grinned, playing along and he approved. "I am privileged to be your date for today," He winked and you laughed at the gesture. "Now now, Y/N-ssi." He said and you raised your eyebrows while your hands fidgeted.
"I heard you transferred here this year. So have you been to many places?" He asked and you shook your head cutely. "No, not really" you answered with a pout and he frowned.
"Barbeque?"
"No"
"Noraebang?"
"No"
"Kimchi house?"
"Is that even a thing? No!"
"Jin-hyung's full course restaurant?"
"NOOOOOOOOOOO" You shouted, frustrated and frowning at him. he was making you feel like a nerd because the only place you went to the most was your own office until now.
It was, the only place you went to, actually.
"Come with me" he nodded, closing his eyes. You looked at him and kept wondering about his sudden change of behavior but nonetheless, followed him when he started walking out of the place as if it was his own house.
"Welcome to your friendly neighborhood guide, me. You need to see places, woman!" He actively exclaimed and you raised your eyebrow, following him out of your apartment.
this guide? he MAD

A/N
Okay, people. I wanted to say something. The story has gotten slow, I know. But that is just because the characters are trying to build again. Y/n cannot throw herself at Jungkook just like that. I'm trying to make it look a bit real. Just imagine if you were actually in this situation, wouldn't you take it slow? I'm trying my best, guys. I need some patience from your side and thanks for the support.
