Jungkook was pacing around in the living room as you were cooking dinner in the kitchen, his contact restless movements playing with your patience.

"Can you sit in a corner please," You told him as you continued to cut some vegetables with the knife, with a little more force because you had gotten irritated.

"No. No, I can't. Why Jimin!" He popped to the doorframe of the kitchen in a matter of seconds as he whined, referring to the words you had said to him after Seon had come and got Jimin and Jungkook had proceeded to ask you why you didn't seem to have a problem with Jimin touching you as much you have with others. 

So you had told him that Jimin and you used to live together, which wasn't a lie and that the two of you had met through Jimin. And ultimately, he had known you for a longer period than Jungkook has and you were good friends with Jimin and it was expected that you would be at home with him.

"We spoke about this already, didn't we! What do you want again with Jimin and me? I explained there's nothing weird going on with your brother and me." You retorted, hitting the knife against the cutting board firmly before lifting your gaze to stare at him, only to witness him sulking.  

"I'm just jealous okay! You don't have to yell!" He yelled at you like an unruly child, before turning and leaving for his room, slamming the door behind him.

Oh god why!?! What have I done to you that you are troubling me this way? What sins am I paying for!?

You complained to yourself while looking towards the ceiling then you put the knife down and took a few breaths to calm your nerves before going to talk to him.

When you entered the room you found him sitting on the floor at the end of the bed, looking at the floor with a sad face.

"Come on, I'm not mad at you so don't act like this. You just got on my nerves briefly." You told him as you took a seat next to him but he didn't turn to look at you.

"Ahhh~...I am sorry, okay? What should I do for you to stop being like this?" You questioned and he slowly raised his eyes from the floor to face you.

"If you showed me that you love me it might help." He uttered sweetly, his eyes wide and his lips parted a little, making him look way too cute to say no to him.

"And how do I do that exactly?" You asked him and he stood up and offered his hand to you for you to stand up and once you did, Jungkook started to explain his brilliant idea.

"You don't like being touched I get that but how about you touching me instead? As far as I know, you don't have a problem with that." You blinked a few times as you heard that, trying to process as his words were words you could not even deny because you yourself had told him that when you wanted to touch someone, you had no issues.

Keyword, when you wanted, however, you definitely didn't want to touch him. Yet that wasn't something you could say so bluntly cause it would cause issues.

"So-So what do you suggest?" Those words left your lips with difficulty as you were clearly concerned now that you had an idea of ​​what he was about to utter next.

Jungkook instead of answering you directly, simply proceeded to take off the shirt he was wearing, revealing his well-trained body to you.

"Touch me." He blurted out"  Little by little. Wherever you want...Just feel me. I want to feel you." He told you in all seriousness, but at that moment you were only thinking about what excuse you could find to get yourself out of there.

"The food! I was cooking." You uttered as you turned to leave but of course, he didn't let you go as he grabbed your arm and pulled you closer to him.

"You can't even touch me?" He asked you, his eyes filled with sadness that pierced your heart with regrets because he was supposed to be someone in love with you right that instant, someone in a relationship with you and you couldn't give him anything.

I'm really not cut out for relationships.

You thought as you swallowed your saliva with difficulty before bringing your hands to wrap around his neck.

"Just stay still while I touch, okay.?" You gave in to his request and immediately he smiled, clearly pleased as he opened his arms like he was about to go through a police check.

You took a deep breath before letting your hands fall to his shoulders, feeling the warmth of his skin which for some reason made you nervous.

You moved towards his forearms and cast your eyes on his face, trying not to look too much at his naked body. But when you met his gaze, you thought that you would prefer seeing his body after all.

Because his eyes shone with a strange glint, an expression that made you feel uncomfortable yet it also gifted you a lingered feeling for some reason. It was as if he was eating you with his eyes as if he had undressed you in his mind and you felt such embarrassment at that moment, that you decided to pull away.

"A little more." He told you as he took your hands and placed them over his chest, his hands over yours making him notice more the shaking of your hands. 

"Listen to my heart Y/N... It's as confused and happy as yours. So go on a little longer. You can." He told you softly, his voice and words making your heart skip a beat.

You took a deep breath, thinking you just had to do it, so you could get free to leave and go lock herself in the bathroom until tomorrow because you definitely had no intention of facing him any time soon after an interaction like this one.

So you found the strength to let your hands travel from his chest to his abs and up to where the pants he was wearing started. Your fingers halted over his belt, feeling the leather fabric.

"I'm not going any further! I don't care if you sulk and think I don't love you or I know else. I'm not doing anything more!" You yelled at him, clearly now ashamed of the act he had made you do.

And Jungkook just laughed before without giving you any warning, he gave you a peck on the lips, leaving you speechless.

"Get back to cooking babe, I'll need a cold shower after this." He admitted before laughing lightly again and heading for the door.

"Ah! And one more thing." He halted his steps and turned to face you as you were still left speechless and confused.

"I'm proud of you baby. I know it's been hard but I'm proud because you can make it through this. Together we'll make it." His words were as warm as his hopeful smile, which left your line of sight as he walked away, leaving you behind with eyes that got filled with tears and a smile that reached your lips, which even you didn't know where it came from.

---Change of set---

Jimin was sitting on the bed as Seon entered his room with his tray of food.

She silently left it on his nightstand before going to leave but Jimin's hand stopped her.

"I want to talk about what happened before. Please." He told her and she just gulped with difficulty before turning and sitting on the edge of the bed, the moment she cried as she hugged him still lingering in her mind.

"What do you want to talk about?" She asked without looking at him.

"I don't know... I'll probably speak. I'll say what I have to say and if you don't have anything to say.. Then I won't stop you from leaving." He told her, his eyes on the ceiling as he took a breath, deciding to follow your advice which was to tell Seon all that he had told you.

And that's what he did. He told her how his heart had skipped a beat the first time he saw her. How he thought at night about how to approach her and ask her to be his girlfriend. How his life had become beautiful just because he was filled with love for her.

He also told her about the bad times. How hurt he felt the day she came and introduced herself as his brother's girlfriend and Seon had just stayed silent and listened.

Her mind was confused as for some reason some of the moments he described, she couldn't remember, but she didn't interrupt him at all.

"And here we are today...At this moment I am asking you if you feel anything for me. Anything at all. Because I have feelings for you, I can't go by like this.  It took me a while I know, but I would appreciate an honest answer." He told her, his eyes now looking at her with hope as he felt like he had opened his heart to her and offered it to her on a platter.

Seon turned to face him, her gaze showing compassion for him, which made Jimin just want to rip his heart out at the thought that she only had feelings of pity for him.

He lowered his head as he clutched his sheets and simply waited for her to leave. There was no way she would believe him, there was no way she would choose him. She had made it so clear already yet his heart like a fool, didn't seem to let go of her till the end. He thought she was gonna walk out on him but that didn't happen, because Seon just hugged him tightly, admitting to herself and to him that she had feelings for him.

"I don't know why but I know I shouldn't. I hate it but I can't deny it anymore. Yes... I love you Jimin. I love you."
