"Here,"

You forwarded your hand towards Jungkook, to help him get down. He stares at it. Small. It's the first word that comes to his mind. Next, how petite your wrist was with a little bracelet wrapped around. Thought, if he could hold you, you'd break. Fragile and beautiful. Since when did he start to have a thing for hands?

Jungkook paused for a literal minute.

Why were you making him think of you? This wasn't right. He loved someone else and he shouldn't think about anyone other than the girl he loves. It was shameless of him. Made him question if he was a traitor. Constantly thinking of you.

But again, oh how he loved your company. Always making him happy, by simply sharing the same air as him. Sitting with you. Sharing smiles with you. Eating with you. He loved the idea of doing anything with you. Let it be just staring at the walls. Or stare at him with those big round eyes of yours he found so lovely.

It felt like the puzzles have come together. Fitting perfect. Completing him. He wasn't allowed to feel anything like such but he was brought here by you. Not your fault, it was his, to think it was just his mind playing games with him since he has never been so platonic with any girl other than Jennie.

But Jennie doesn't make him feel the way you do. So much drive force in such little time spent with you. He has female colleagues he spends his weekends with for years but they didn't hold the power you owned the moment he started to spend time with you.

If he wasn't out of his mind to think that... you acted a lot like the girl he used to write emails to. The girl who taught him how lovely it is to love someone by simply touching their heart. Calming their soul with words so impactful that once he thought he would lose it if he wouldn't come to see the girl who was capable enough to bring him to that point.

The girl he felt at home with. Could open about anything with her. Be it him shaving for the first time with his dad's razor and getting a cut near his cheek and getting a big scolding back from him. Tried again and didn't get caught all the next time until he brought one for himself. Showed he was sneaky when for the world he was a sweet saint.

The one to know how at the age of 15 he busted his mom's car when he sneaked out to try driving on a midnight thrill only to get caught by his neighbour who called his parents for breaking one of their plant pots. He was simply trying to park his car. Never was allowed to drive until he turned 18.

The stories were never-ending.

But yes, she was the first one he confessed to getting into his dream university and wished to have her here with him. The only girl he missed with all of his heart. The girl he shared most of his deepest secrets with. She knew him in and out.

Every single thing. To his favourite food. To his favourite song, he always listens to whenever he misses her - which kind of turned into their song since she heard it too whenever she missed him. The comfort. The love. The words that were shared through a mere screen.

The familiarity he felt with you. As if your eyes saw him bare. One look from you and his heart paced like an idiot. Dumb.

Thinking all of this he concluded. You coexisted with Jennie. Shared almost everything. Jennie changed although but you, you saw him just the way he wanted the girl he emailed for ten years to look at him.

He decides you adapted her personality and he was slipping because he saw her in you. Which was pretty much fucked up.

By all means, it just draws the conclusion. You were you and Jennie was his Jennie and none of that could change his feelings for her, he loved her and his heart feeling this way was wrong from all directions.

He had to get his head straight.

"Phft" He places his hand on your little paws, brushing his complicated thoughts away and focusing back on teasing you. You were his best friend. Nothing more than that, nothing less than that.

"My bestie is the best like I said." He gets down anyways, making sure not to weigh down on it. Appreciating your gesture.

"Thank you." You bow at him gracefully with one hand behind your back and one in the front resting on your stomach as Jungkook laughs, "Yeah yeah let's go now."

You laugh along, "Yeah" and continue laughing with him on your way ignoring Taehyung who was understanding everything happening before his eyes.

Trailing you both from behind and noticing all the love-Dowie couple vibes from you both. The little hearts pop out of your eyes as you strangle your arms with Jungkook, pushing him forward with you as he smiles till his teeth dragged along saying something to you only to you hit him back with laughter on your face.

Yeah, he understood you didn't have any feelings for him because you didn't even see the letter he gave you last night.

Oh right, the letter he gave that you didn't even remember seeing. There wasn't much on it just a little summary of how he felt about you, that's it. Okay, with a few words a little exaggerated. He doesn't regret writing it to you. Will laugh it off with you when you maybe open it.

But somehow he knows you're gonna end up hurting yourself. Jungkook loved Jennie and never intended to back away. It was going to be difficult for you as if it was going to be for him. Just seeing you so happy and giggly. Wanting nothing but happiness on your face.

"Are you coming?" Jungkook looks behind his back, calling him with you by his side, signing him to come over soon.

"Coming!" Taehyung responded, scratching his neck and running back to you all, removing all of his thoughts for now. Feigning ignorance was bliss and he just learnt that. Through the hard way.

"I didn't know we could get Korean food here" You mumbled, munching cheese Gimbap enjoyably, savouring each bite of it while closing your eyes in pleasure, "It's so tasty mhm..." you furrow your brows continuing to eat while everyone nods immediately at your statement.

"I know really good Korean spots here" Jin speaks up, calmly eating his dish "I've been familiar with this place, so if you feel like eating London's Korean food, I'm always here" he ends his sentence with a wink to which you giggle, "Sure"

"No, but honestly even I didn't know about this place" Namjoon states, lovingly eyeing the ocean to his right. "exactly" Jimin joined, "It's so surreal and so pretty" he gawks at the view he was witnessing.

"London is beautiful" You heavily breathe, looking at the bluish sky slowly turning orange while a little purple colour shading in the background, the birds chirping around with the sound of the water waves splashing and the cool breeze calming the weather. It was calming and relaxing.

Made you forget for a second how complicated your life was for a second.

"You have seen nothing" Hobi starts, "There's a lot more to see in London" he completes, frying beef meat and giving you a sweet grin. "of course," You say, inhaling the tasty smell from the pan, "I'll surely check this place before I leave."

"Oh, when are you leaving by the way?" Taehyung asks twisting the lid of the water bottle open in one twist. "In three or four days I guess" You reply nonchalantly.

Yoongi suddenly groans, taking everyone's attention, "Let's not talk about that now." He quietly eats, not noticing that everyone had their eyes focused on him. "You'll miss her won't you?" Jimin nudges his shoulder teasingly as Yoongi tries hard not to become shy but his ears turning red told otherwise.

"Yah! It's not like I will miss her or something" Yoongi mumbles fidgeting with his chopsticks on the ramen bowl's surface, "I just like her company" he looks up at everyone, "I mean we ate ramen together so it's like a start of a good friendship-" and he got cut when Hobi hung his hand around his shoulders, "Yeah, we know, we know" and giggling after, causing Yoongi to scowl, "Your mouth smells"

Immediately getting away from Yoongi, Hobi pouts, focusing back on his food as everyone bursts into a peal of laughter before digging up on the new dishes being served.

"No, but I'll be back after a month anyways." You smile with a little shrug, "For studies." You take another big last bite of cheese Gimbap and hum in satisfaction. The food tasted too good. You should probably come here again with Jungkook. Take Jennie too, if she ever comes to London. She would love it.

"Yeah," Jungkook tilts his head a little towards you, folding his arms on the table before wiping the end of your lips with his thumb, "We will look forward to it." He smiles at you before looking at Jimin and indulging in a conversation with him not realizing he has just licked the cheese off his thumb casually, laughing along on a joke Jimin made on Yoongi again.

Nothing. It was nothing. Not much to think about. You weren't panicking. Not even having the slightest thought on how his lips must've been better instead of his thumb. Not at all watching how his hands pick up the heavy jar pouring beer in Yoongi's cup with his veins prominent. Oh and didn't even notice that he got the prettiest fingers a man could ever own.

Never wished you could gift him a ring so people would be aware of how they belonged to you.

"You'd drink?" He pays attention to you mid-conversation, forwarding a mini glass of soju towards you, "Wanna try?" He grins almost realizing it's just like you. "Little glass for my  little y/n." He says it out aloud without thinking much about it.

If only you weren't in your submissive state you could've flatly spewed curse words at him for teasing you - in a playful way obviously. But he was just making things worse for you, testing your patience. Making you want to strangle yourself. Not very nice.

You give him a subtle nod before accepting the glass and bringing it to your lips only to chug it one go with your head thrown back. It hits right at your throat. Letting out a shriek voice from your throat you shake your head.

Jungkook laughs, a little quivering laugh where he lowers his head and shuts his eyes, finding you adorable. You growl and wipe your lips with the back of your hand as Jungkook rests his chin on top of his palm sending stars with his eyes to you, "Second shot?" He asks and you decline, "Too much for me,"

He chuckles, his teeth wide out and the ends of his eyes crinkling up. "Alright. There's always a next time."

"With you? yeah, I wouldn't mind."

"Hm?"

Guess you didn't have alcohol tolerance cause why did you just say it? Come back to your freaking senses!

"The food was so good." Jin saves you from further explanation. Wiping his hands off he stands up as the others follow him next, whereas Hobi packs the leftovers for later. Namjoon goes and pays for it. Said, the treat was from him.

And Jin is arguing about how he should pay since he's the eldest, they keep bickering until Jin gives up and Namjoon wins, asking him to pay for the desserts he was craving next. Specifically Bingsu. ( Korean shaved ice cream)

He keeps his wallet out ready looking out for the ice cream stalls around.

"Agh" Yoongi stretches his arms in tiredness, "Shall we see the sunset together?" He suggests finding the ice cream stall in his eyesight, "Let's go there, it has the best view." He already starts to walk when Jimin finds himself getting a little tipsy, giggling and dragging Taehyung along with him, hooking his arms around him.

"Anyone reaching last to the stall shall eat the Bangsu I offer!" Everyone groans, knowing where this was leading to. They did this before and it sucks and his ice cream tastes shit. Jimin's handmade ice cream was mixed with all weird flavours and sweet chocolates which also included mint mix.

No, no one wished to ruin their taste buds after such a good meal but again, he was tipsy. Might not upset him to decline his offer. Had to play along since he was the baby of this group, although Jungkookn was the youngest. So, everyone starts a race not wanting to be a victim. Running for their life.

Including Yoongi was almost going to trip on his feet. You laugh and Jungkook runs with you, side to side. Making sure you weren't left alone. But it was all good until you trip over a sand castle and slip, rolling all over it.

You just destroyed a sandcastle some kid must've made. And you're proven right when a little boy's crying voice makes you sad and regretful. Dusting your dress you look at Jungkook's hand being forwarded to help you.

"Thanks" You mumble embarrassed as he chuckles, "Couldn't expect less from you"

You pout, taking his hand and lifting yourself, now witnessing a huge buff white man from behind approaching Jungkook and killing him with his gaze that Jungkook has no idea about.

"Um, Jungkook" You whisper nervously looking behind him as Jungkook frowns not understanding anything until a voice came from behind,

"WHO MADE MY SON CRY!"
