JUNGKOOK'S POV

"What is it?" I asked Cheng Xiao when I exited the classroom since she excused me.

She handed me the papers and I took it. She then smiled, "Here's the script."

"Thanks, Cheng Xiao." I was about to enter the room, but she stopped me. "Why?"

"Mr. So said that we'll be practicing later at 3 PM." I nodded. "See you, Kook!"

"Thanks." I smiled back and entered the room while looking at the script. I sighed. Ish, why do I have to act as Romeo, by the way? I stomped my feet and looked for Juwi. Whenever I'm stressed, I go to her since she's calming me down from cramming. She's my stress reliever.

"Juwi!" I smiled and sat on her lap. She hit my back over and over again, but I just laughed.

"Aigoo, get off me!" She ranted, but I continued in laughing. I don't really care if she doesn't want this. I stood up and kneeled before her. She raised her brow and gave me a "what-the-heck-are-you-doing?" look. "Are you proposing or something?" She raised her brow.

"Do you want me to?" She shut her mouth and rolled her eyes at me. I put the script on the desk and held her hand. "Are you still mad at me?" I pouted. She stole a glance at me for a moment and then looked away again. "C'mon. You're jealous of Cheng Xiao?"

"There's nothing to be jealous of." She answered coldly. The ice in her heart will never melt no matter how hard I try to melt it. I sighed and stood up. I took my script and walked away from her.

Sometimes, I just wanna give up on her.

TZUYU'S POV

I watched Jungcock walk away from me. Boogsh! That was my heart. I dropped it.

"Aish, Tzuyu, what are you doing?" I whispered to myself and rubbed my hands against my face because of frustration. I stood up and was about to go to him, but our instructor entered the room. All that I was able to do was to look at Jungcock. I froze at my own place when I saw him walking towards me. His cold face is making me shiver.

He sat down on the vacant seat beside me with a blank face. I sat down as well and listened to the instructor.

But I can't listen. I'm too distracted because of Jungcock. There's a wall between the two of us and it's called awkwardness.

Talk to him, you idiot. I told myself.

I didn't understand the lesson because I was thinking of Jungcock the whole time though he wasn't doing anything. He was taking down notes while I'm staring at somewhere.

Doing that stupid thing earlier makes me guilty. Gosh, I am so fucking guilty. I need to resolve things between me and Jungcock or else we'll be enemies forever. I can't do that. I have feelings for this enemy. It's either I'll lower my pride down or nothing will happen.

As soon as the class ended, I took Jungcock's wrist and dragged him, but he stood still. I faced him and his face is completely blank. It breaks my heart even more.

"Come with me--"

"Kook!" We both turned our heads when Cheng Xiao entered the room. He took his hand back and smiled at her. "Uhm, are you guys going somewhere--"

"No." Jungcock cut her. "Let's practice?" Cheng Xiao nodded and smiled. Jungcock went with her while his hand is wrapped around her waist.

I was left dumbfounded.

I was just staring at Jungcock's hand at her waist. It's all I'm thinking of. Everything was in slow motion while I was staring at his hand.

Jungkook's face is smiling and so is Cheng Xiao's.

I like Jungkook, yes, but do I have any right to be jealous? I shouldn't be jealous, but that's what I am feeling right now. I am jealous and hurt.

I started thinking if I should confess to him or not. I want to confess, but I do not know how and when. I'm not that type of person who would confess first. I'm the type of person who will wait because my pride is taller than me. But for Jungkook? Maybe it's time for me to change. I don't want to lose him, to be honest. I just don't want to.

I am honestly afraid to be rejected because it will be shameful for me. It's a shame to be rejected. I am not afraid to confess. I am afraid to be rejected.

So I took my bag and tried to look for him and Cheng Xiao. It's now or never.

I bumped into the other students that are lingering around the hallway while I was trying to catch Jungkook and Cheng Xiao.

All I care now is the both of them. And my feelings. I might be rejected, but it's alright. Atleast I felt how did the other boys who confessed to me felt as well. Maybe this is my karma for all of my bad actions.

I saw Jungkook and Cheng Xiao heading towards the theatre room. I ran towards their direction, but someone blocked my path.

"Get out of my way!" I stomped my feet, but Mingyu laughed at me. I peeked at Jungkook and Cheng Xiao, but they're already gone. I glared at Mingyu. "What the fuck are you doing here?!"

"Why were you running?" He grinned wickedly. It's the most wicked grin I have ever seen in my life. He looked back at Jungkook's direction. "Are you catching someone?"

"Why the fuck do you care?" I asked him and raised my brow.

"Well, that's new." He chuckled in the most evil way I could ever imagine. "Tell me, Tzuyu, do you like him?" I fucking hate you. "You like him--"

"I fucking like him, okay?! So get the heck out of my way!" I passed by him and went to a place that I know that will help me.

I sat on the grass and leaned back on the tree's trunk. I saw Jungkook's carving. I didn't know that I was already tearing up.

Get yourself together, Tzuyu. You just like him.

*

It was already 6 PM. I'm waiting for Jungkook outside the campus while I'm sitting on the gutter. Students were already going home. There are almost no people exiting the gate and I'm worried that Jungkook already left.

I will not let this day pass by. Not until I tell him what I feel about him.

And then I saw him walking with his bike. I immediately stood up and followed him, but he noticed that someone's following him, so he stopped from walking. He faced me with his eyebrows crossed. When he recognized me, his face became blank. He didn't talk. He's too cold.

"I-I want to apologize," I paused. He put his bike aside and crossed his arms. "Yes, I am jealous, Jungkook--"

"But you said that there's no reason for you to be jealous." His cold voice made me shiver.

I answered under my breath, "I was lying. I am sorry if I lied. I am sorry if I became too tough for you. I regret it." I lowered my head. "I just don't want you to see me as a soft-hearted and easy-to-get kind of girl because I know that I am not that kind of girl."

"You are." I looked at him. "That's your true personality, so don't you hide it. Especially from me."

"The truth is," I sighed. "I like you and seeing you with Cheng Xiao makes me jealous even though you like her."

"What?" He looked confused.

"J + C. Jungkook + Cheng Xiao, right--"

"That's Jeon and Chou." I was left dumbfounded for a moment. He walked towards me and hugged me. "I like you, too, Tzuyu." My heart beat raced. That's the first time that I have heard him say my name. And it's the sweetest thing I have ever heard.

I hugged him back under the lamp post with his bike sitting on the ground while our hearts raced.
