TZUYU'S POV
His warm hug is melting my heart. My hearbeat has never raced this fast before. This is the first time I've felt this towards someone. It's different from what I've felt for Mingyu.
I feel like I'm in cloud nine.
"I didn't think that you'll be feeling the same for me," Jungkook whispered. "So... are we a couple now?"
"We just like each other. You're too fast." I chuckled and he did the same. We look like idiots while hugging each other. I can feel the audience's stares.
"What do you want me to do then? Court you? I'm sorry, I don--"
"Then we'll be enemies forever." I cut him. He escaped from the hug and looked at me. He gulped. I pinched his nose and laughed at his face. "I'm not easy to get, oppa."
He held my hand and put it down. He gazed at me while smiling. It's hard to breathe all of a sudden.
He interlocked his hand to mine, still staring at me while smiling. Our eyes are locked to each other.
"I have something to say, tho." He told me and my heart raced. I didn't talk back. "I don't like you." I gulped. He grinned wickedly. It became harder for me to breathe.
'I don't like you.'
'I don't like you.'
'I don't like you.'
It kept on repeating inside my head. I took my hand back to wipe my tears.
This is the first time I confessed to a man and I got rejected.
"Ssh, don't cry." I felt his hand on my cheek while wiping my tears using his thumb. "Let me finish my sentence first." I looked at him. He's giving me that smile again. He embraced me, but I'm still crying. I hit his chest over and over again, but he's just comforting me. I calmed for a moment. "I love you," he whispered.
"Stop fooling me," I told him in a serious tone. "I won't be fooled again."
"I love you." He repeated. I escaped from his hug and glared at him. "I'm not fooling you. Let me prove to you that I love you."
"I'm unlovable." I told him and his expression changed. "It's impossible for people to love me."
He smiled softly, "I still love you."

I woke up and stared at my room's ceiling. I don't know if last night was just a dream or what. It's too magical, yet hurting. I roamed my eyes around my room and my eyes stopped when I saw the explosion box.
I sighed and stood up to get it. I looked at it, thinking if I should still give it to Jungcock. I placed it back and went to the shower room to bathe.
After bathing and dressing, I saw the box. It kept on bothering me, so I took it and told myself that I'll just drop this to his house.
I called Squirrel, but she's not answering my phone calls, so instead I called Thomas.
"Thomas-ah," I greeted when she answered her phone.
"Aigoo, Tzuyu-ah! I have a name! Don't call me Thomas!" She ranted. I chuckled softly.
"Alright, Jihyo unnie," I said. "Do you know where Jungkook lives?" I asked her.
"I don't know. Try contacting Sana. She knows it for sure." My eyebrows crossed.
"She's not picking her phone up." I told her and I heard her sigh on the other line. "I bet she's with Mark."
"Nah, they broke up." My eyebrows crossed even more. "Call Jimin."
"Do you have his number?"
"He's with me right now--"
"What?!" I yelled. Why the heck are they together?!
"Ya, it's not what you think. We're twins, okay?" Twins?! "Jimin-ah!" She called Jimin and when I was about to talk, he answered. "Good morning, Tzuyu-ah."
"Where does Jungkook live?" I asked him right away. I heard him chuckle.
"I'll take you there."

I gazed upon a big mansion infront of me. I felt Jimin pat my shoulder.
"Tell Jungkook happy birthday for me." He winked and fled away infront of me using his bike. I sighed and stepped towards the doorbell. I hesitated to press it at first, but I have no choice. I'm already here, so I pressed it.
My heart is pounding as I step back to the gate. Few moments later, the gate opened and it revealed Jungkook. He's wearing his pajamas and he looked very surprised to see me.
I handed him the box using my right hand, "I just stopped by to give you this since it's bothering me." His eyes are looking at me and the box back and forth.
The next scene was too fast. He took my wrist and pulled me towards him. My ear landed to his chest and he hugged me. I could clearly hear his heartbeat. It's so fast--faster than mine.
"Thank you." He told me in the most sincere way. I closed my eyes and sighed.
I stepped away from him and greeted him, "Happy birthday."
He half-smiled as he took the box from me. Open it, dweeb. But of course, he didn't. He just stared at it.
"How did you get here?" He asked me. "You don't even know where I live."
"Jihyo." I answered. He turned his head when he heard the door creak. And so did I. A middle-aged woman walked towards us. I think she's the same age as my mom. Fuck, I have to leave.
"Jungkook, what took you so long--" she cut her words when she saw me. I gulped and bowed to greet her.
"Umma," Jungkook kissed his mom on his cheek. She smiled at me as she walked towards me. "T-This is Tzuyu--"
"Welcome to the family." I was petrified when I heard her say that. She hugged me tightly. She escaped from the hug and asked me to eat breakfast with them.
"I-It's alright--"
"No, you have to eat with us." I was left with no choice when she dragged me with her. I begged Jungkook using my eyes, but he just laughed. He closed the gate and walked towards us.
Everybody stopped from what they're doing when I stepped in the dining area. Jungkook's mom led me to a seat beside Jungkook. It's vacant.
She assisted me right away while Jungkook sat beside me. He looked at me and smiled. When she was done assisting me, she sat beside a man, maybe older than Jungkook. I bet he's his brother.
"Dongsaeng, do you mind introducing who is this pretty young lady beside you?" The man said. Jungkook shook his head, drank his water and introduced me to his family. This is very impromptu. To be honest, I just want to bury my face in the soil because this is embarrassing me.
I was uncomfortable when I was eating. I can feel his father's intense stares while I was eating.
"So, how long have you been dating my son?" Jungkook's dad asked me. I gulped and was about to answer, but Jungkook held my hand under the table. He doesn't want me to answer questions.
"Since she transferred, dad." I want to tell him that we're not a couple. I just like Jungkook and that's the end. "Tzuyu isn't comfortable with you guys."
"Maybe because this is the first time we meet her." His mom said. "Dear, don't be shy." I smiled casually.
"Are you guys going to date?" His brother asked. I was going to shake my head, but Jungkook already decided for the both of us.
"Yes, hyung." Jungkook nodded. What the actual fuck.
"You should get going, Jungkook. Can you wait for him, Tzuyu?" I nodded since I have no choice. Our breakfast ended and I was asked to wait Jungkook inside his room. I wanted to say no, but I was too shy to open my mouth.
And so, I was left inside Jungkook's room while he's in the shower.
