Even Though You're - Part 9

"summer school?!"









"oh yeah, jungkook is in a tennis competition. he's really trying hard."







"ow!!!"







"sorry, that wasn't on purpose."








"y/n, did you get a sunburn?!"






"i want you to marry jungkook so you can finally be my daughter!!"
*****************************

Walking home, you were really deep in your thoughts today. You were probably the girl that was closest to Jungkook in the school. By "close" it meant probably hated, but at least you get to talk to him.

Jungkook is a very cold person, but somehow I'm blindly in love with him. He's never done something that would make me hate him.. well, besides him memorizing my letter. He has made me cry, and he has a lot of girls chasing him.

Jungkook's tournament would be held in about a week, but sadly I can't attend it because it's during school, and Class F students are not allowed to watch it. I know, it's stupid. It's been a year and a half since I've been living with Jungkook, and there has been absolute no progress in our "relationship." Ray hasn't been around anymore lately, but I still have a bad feeling about him. He said a week ago he would get revenge on Jungkook, but fortunately nothing interesting has happened.

You stepped in the house, sliding your shoes on the 'welcome' mat.

"Welcome home, y/n! I made you some food. Come sit down with us, we're having a meal." Mrs. Jeon smiles at you politely, and you follow her to the dining room.

You sit down in your usual spot, noticing Jungkook was already there.

"Jungkook, how did you get here so fast?" You say as you sit.

"He left tennis early. He wanted to practice more for his tournament in a week outside the house. If he wins, we'll have a nice meal." Mr. Jeon says.

Jungkook was reading a book on his chair, while crossing his legs.

There was silence on the table as you just heard spoons and plates clanging.

"Oh, me and Kisang have to go to a reunion soon around the day Jungkook has his tournament, so we might be out of town." Mr Jeon speaks up.

"That's right, brother." Your father replies.

Summer was going by really fast, even though it didn't feel like summer because you still had school. Today was Jungkook's tournament, and he aced it!! However, Jungkook's tournament was also on the last day of summer. But atleast he won.

"Good job, Jungkook! I knew you would win." You say to him, but he continues to sip his drink.

"Yes, congratulations son." Mr. Jeon says.

"Thank you." He bows politely, and we clang all our glasses in the center of the table.

"Today we have a reunion to attend, isn't that right, Kisang? We'll be leaving after this meal. We'll be gone for a couple of days." Mr. Jeon says.

"We should be going now." Your father says, and brings Kisang along with him.

The door closes, and Mrs. Jeon gets up. "Well, you guys should go to bed. I'm going to check on Jimin, and go to sleep. Goodnight!"

"Me too." Jungkook goes upstairs.

Fortunately, you don't have to go to school tomorrow, because it was the last day of summer. You get in bed and go to sleep.

——————————————————

The next day you got up on time, but then realized you had no school. You did a sigh of relief, and went downstairs for breakfast. Mrs. Jeon was already at it, making the smell of delicious pancakes.

You smelled the air, and sat down getting ready for your food. Mrs. Jeon happily gave pancakes to you, Jungkook, and V on the table. She sat down afterwards.

"I hope they taste delicious, I—" She gets cut off by the ring of the house phone.

"Hold on a moment—" She cheerfully goes to pick up the phone.

...

You watch as her expression changes dramatically.

"—What?!" She yells, startling you, and earning a look from Jungkook.

"Ok." She hangs up, and looks at V. "Oh guys.. we gotta go to the hospital!! Grandma has no one for her to take care of her, and they need me—us."

"Take all the time you need, Miss." You smile.

She smiles at your gesture and pauses. "Can you and Jungkook take care of the house for today? I'll take Jimin, grandma wants to see him."

"Of course, me and Jungkook will—wait.. we?!" You raise your voice a bit.

"Yes, thank you so much! We're gonna get going now, come on V!" She rushes herself as she grabs V's hand and a bit of supplies as she heads upstairs to get Jimin.

You look at Jungkook, and at your surroundings. Me and Jungkook...alone?! This is going to be the best summer memory ever! Jungkook saw your face expressions change, as he looked at you in confusion. He raised his eyebrows, and headed upstairs.

This is my chance to make a meal for him!

You take out a recipe book and start cooking.

*3rd Person POV*

Mrs. Jeon sat down at a restaurant with V.

"What do you want to eat, V?" Mrs. Jeon says cheerfully.

"Aren't we going to see grandma, mom?" V says in confusion.

"They just need to spend time alone~ I know something would happen.." Mrs. Jeon mumbles, as she looks at Jimin on the baby seat.

"Mom! Are we going to see grandma or not?" V raises his voice.

"Huh? Oh no, grandma is fiiine. I just wanted y/n and Jungkook to have some time alone~" Mrs. Jeon giggles.

"Whaat? I'm leaving." V was about to get up, but Mrs. Jeon cuts him off.

"So you don't want this?" She points to a guy carrying 3 scoops of ice cream.

V looks at her, and then at the ice cream, and digs in.

* 2 hour time-skip *

Your POV

The room now smells like smoke, and the "steak" you made looks like liquid.

The door storms open, and you hear Jungkook cough. "What is this smoke?" He says, and you turn around with a liquified plate in your hands.

"Heh.." You cringe and walk towards him, as some of the liquid drips onto the floor.

"Ooh..aahh.." You almost trip.

"What...is that..?" Jungkook questions as he points onto your plate.

"Steak...." You state, sounding more like a question.

He had a face of confusion, and facepalmed himself.

"I'll help you." He turned off the stove, and read the recipe book. After skimming the recipe book for 5 seconds, he starts cutting a carrot.

"How do you know the recipe?" You questioned.

"I memorized it." He replies.

You widen your eyes, as you can see he did everything in a clean manner. He chopped some onions, carrots, and other vegetables.
He put the steak on the stove. After everything was done, he mixed everything together and handed you a plate. You both sat on the table.

You took out a fork and started eating the steak. Even though he was the one that made the food, we were still having a nice dinner together. It was really nice. We're like a newly-wed couple! You stared at his face as he looked at his food, and ate it peacefully.

He really is an angel..

You stared at your food on your plate.

"Sorry you had to be the one to cook." You mumble.

"Then I want extremely sweet dessert from you." The words pierced your heart like a stingray.

You look at him like a lost puppy. You get up as your lips come closer together. You can hear his quiet breaths as..

"Hey." He says, looking at you with a confused expression as you were kissing the air.

"You should wash the dishes at least. —and clean the kitchen." He says, getting up from his chair.

Dang it, how was that not real?!

"W-wait, are you going to do your homework now?? Can we do that together?" You ask, expecting a no.

"Homework? I finished it all on the first day of summer break." He chuckles and pauses.

"Don't tell me you haven't touched it yet."

You look at him and smile. "..haha... you're right...." You look down.

"It would take you the whole summer to finish it even if you worked all day." He states, and walks away.

"Good luck." You hear from him before you sit back down in your chair from defeat.

You then rush upstairs, realizing it was 10:30 PM already. You quickly skim through your books, figuring out which one you would do first. You pick up a book and read the first few words. You smile to yourself.

"I don't understand." You say, and drop the book.

"Welp, let's try reading! That should be easy." You say, and pick up the book.

You read the title. "Nope. Not going to work." You sigh.

* Time skip an hour *

I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! You get up. You've only answered a few questions in reading and social studies, but math and physics are impossible. I don't wanna spend the last day of summer like this....

You realize something. You inhale the air sharply and get up. You tiptoe to your door, thinking this would be a really bad idea, but you're doing it anyway. You tiptoe as the door shuts really loudly, making you startle yourself. You slowly walk to Jungkook's room, that was next to yours. You hope to yourself quietly as you hold the doorknob and breathe air in and out. Twisting the doorknob carefully, you see Jungkook sleeping under the covers. You smile at the sight, but quickly shut the door behind you and tiptoe to his books.

"Let's see your answers...." You whisper.

The room was super dark. You then suddenly hit yourself against his chair, making a loud noise as you gasp. You watch Jungkook, but he just changed his sleep position.

You sigh in relief, and continue to grab his books very slowly and carefully. You hold the book of Math and Physics and start tiptoeing faster towards the door.

...

You walk, each step you can hear your heart thudding. You extend your hand towards the doorknob.

You suddenly feel a tug of your body and fall onto Jungkook's bed.

"What the hell are you doing? Sneaking into someone's room in the night?" His voice startles you and your heart starts thudding super quickly.

You widen your eyes. "N-nothing! I have to go, g-good night." You stutter, and start towards the door but he drags you back.

"No." He says, and you quickly grab the books that fell out of your hands when you got tugged.

"These.. are...uh..." You couldn't find the right words to say.

"I know what you're doing." Jungkook's voice was low, almost as if he was calm.

There was a pause, all you can hear was your heartbeat super fast and the air conditioning. You calmed down a bit, as you held the books tight.

"You want to come into my bed, right?" You blinked twice, in shock as you dropped the books to the floor.

He dragged you on the bed next to him.

"Stop!! What—are you doing?!" Your heart beats twice as faster as before.

"You sneak in a guy's room, what do you expect~?" He says, almost in a singing tune.

You head was on the pillow, as his face was on top of yours. "Relax. I won't let you down." He smiles.

"Won't let me down?! What do you mean?!" You yelp.

"We're the only ones home tonight." He says.

You suddenly got was he was referring to, and your brain clicked.

"But—!" You stutter.

"Your friends are right, even a genius may turn into a beast." He chuckles, and you can feel his breath.

He leans in for a kiss, but you quickly lean your head to the side, stopping him. "Stop it!! I like you! But we are not ready for this, we should have a platonic relationship first.."

You turn your head to look at him, and his expression changes. He starts laughing, and puts his hands off of you.

"Platonic relationship? Really? He laughs again.

Your face was full of confusion, but your heart was still beating rapidly. What is he saying? He's going to give me a heart attack!

He then sits next to you, leaving you be. "So..you still love me." He smiles.

"You weren't serious?!" You sit up and face him.

He smiles in a goofy manner. "Relax, I'm not interested in you at all."

Your face calms down. You then pout, getting off the bed. "I'll tell everyone you tried to assault me." You say in an angry tone.

"Go ahead." He says.

"Hm?" You mumble.

"Everyones already been gossiping about us. Won't change anything." He crosses his arms.

You pause.

"You win." You pout, stomping out of his room.

"Hey." He says, making you turn around.

"What?" You say angrily.

He shows you the books. "You forgot something."

"I don't need—" You look at the door, and look back.

He smiles and gets out of bed.

*************************

"This one is the same as the first one, the formula is just changed a bit. Try it." Jungkook gives you the pen.

"Can I just copy your answers?" You stretch.

"It wouldn't help you at all. Just do the problem." He says calmly.

You sigh and grab the pen. You put your head down on the table and start the problem.

So, my memory of summer turned out to be doing homework.. I didn't get what I wanted..

You looked up at Jungkook, as he flipped through some of your books.

But I am happy now. I wonder why.

You smile at Jungkook, and he looks at you. His eyebrows drop. "Focus. Do it now."

"Okay." You continue to write.

You both ended up with staying up the whole night. You both walked downstairs as you finally finished your homework. The clock read '6 AM' You sat down on the couch and stretched.

"We stayed up the whole night.." You watch him sit on the other couch.

"To show you my gratitude, I'm going to make breakfast for you." You smile.

"No thanks, I don't want a stomach ache on my first day of school." He rubs his eyes in a cute manner.

You pout and hug the couch pillow.

...

You feel a gaze on you, and then you see Jungkook shift nervously.

"C—ee" He mumbles something.

"What did you say?" You turn your head towards him.

"Make coffee for me." He says, raising his voice, adjusting his eyes to the corner of the room in embarrassment.

You let out a half smile, heading to the kitchen. He follows you, sitting down a table with two chairs opposing each other. You pour the coffee, and put one on his side, and one on your side. You sit down and sip your coffee as you wait eagerly for his reaction.

You look at him sip your coffee. "Good morning, Jungkook.." You mumble.

His face perks up. "We were up all night." He responds.

You smile as you watch him drink your coffee in silence.

I couldn't make any special summer memories during the last summer break of high school,

...But I'll never forget the aroma of this morning coffee that I shared with Jungkook.
