•Fifty-Seven
"So, around seven then?" Jungkook asks with one foot out the door.
He didn't realize how long he stayed over at his parents' house until his mother asked if he was staying for dinner. He politely declined to state he already had plans but in reality, he missed you and wanted to spend the rest of his day with you.
His mother followed after him with a smile upon her face.
She nods happily, "Yes! This Thursday."
Jungkook nods as he fixes his black coat, the air was nippier than usual. "Will do. Can't wait!" He exclaims as he pecks her on the cheek. "See you Thursday night for dinner."
He gives his mom one more smile before turning away. As he walked to his car his mother shouts after him.
"Don't forget to tell Jisun, sweetheart!" She reminds. "The rest of the Park family are coming too!"
Jungkook smiles with a nod before ducking into his car. He wondered how exciting it'll be to have dinner with both your parents. Plus Jimin, of course.
He didn't tell his parents about your relationship yet. He wanted to wait for a perfect opportunity and it seems Thursday will be the best to drop the news.
He pulls out his phone and opens his messages. Quickly he presses your contact and starts to type.
Jungkook: On my way home, dear!♥️
Jungkook: Do you want to order takeout?
He waits for a minute for your reply, but there wasn't one. He waited a couple of minutes more staring at the screen with anticipation but there was no reply. Giving up, Jungkook puts his phone away with a sigh and turns on his car.
He didn't find it odd that you didn't answer his text, even though you had your phone with you at all times. He guessed you were doing something and didn't see his text. He shrugged off the thought deciding to get takeout anyway.
He backed up from the driveway and waved to his mom before driving off. When he entered the downtown district of Busan Jungkook figured getting fried chicken would be best. Seeing the closest restaurant Jungkook quickly parks his car and walks in the restaurant.
He was trying to hurry as fast as possible, surprising you with a bag of fried chicken would surely make your day. He wondered if you missed him as much as he missed you today. You didn't text him at all and Jungkok knew it shouldn't bother him but it did.
He was hoping you would send some random memes or gifs like you do when you're bored. Unfortunately, you sent nothing throughout the day making Jungkook miss you more than ever. All he wanted now was to see your smiling face.
Once he received his order Jungkook swiftly exits the restaurant and gets into his car once more. He raced home excited to spend the rest of the evening with you. When he finally arrives in front of the apartment building he parks the car before taking out his phone.
He frowns slightly at the sight of the word delivered on the bottom of the texts he sent you. What could you possibly be doing in the past thirty minutes that you didn't even see his text? With a small sigh, he grabs the bag and heads into the building.
Striding into the elevator he quickly presses the button as he waits to arrive on his apartment floor. He could've sworn the elevator took longer than needed to reach the floor, it felt like an eternity when the doors finally opened. He rushes down the hall and to your door and knocks lightly against the surface.
"Jisun, it's me!" He calls in a chirpy tone.
He waits for a moment until he heard a soft It's open from the inside. He quickly enters the apartment and sighs with a frown.
"You shouldn't leave your door unlocked, Jisun," He scolds lightly as he shakes off his shoes. "Anybody could enter, you know."
You didn't bother answering for you were curled up in a ball on the couch with your eyes trained on the tv. Jungkook enters the living room and notices your statued-like state.
You didn't move a muscle, it didn't even seem like you were breathing. Your beautiful eyes were red as a frown was profound on your plump lips.
On instinct, he rushes to your side and places the bag atop the coffee table.
"Jisun, dear, what's wrong?"
He places a comforting hand upon your arm while staring at you in worry. It took you a moment to respond to his voice, his touch. You remember who was with you and you turn your head to see a beautiful face close to yours.
With one look the aching pain in your heart seemed to have decreased some but not enough for you to forget. You realize Jungkook was waiting for an answer so you give him a small smile.
"Nothing's wrong," You answer meekly. "I was just watching some old videos, that's all."
Curious, he glances at the tv and sees that a boy was singing in front of the camera. His voice was calm and soothing, it was beautiful. He looked familiar. Jungkook's eyes widen slightly when in surprise.
"Wait, is that me?" He asks.
You nod, "Yeah."
Jungkook stared at the screen in wonder, he didn't realize you still had these videos. You sigh with a small frown.
"You have such a beautiful voice, Jungkook," you whisper. "I don't know why you stopped singing so suddenly."
Jungkook glances at your direction with a small pit in his heart. He reluctantly turns away and watches his younger self singing smoothly like it was second nature. When he heard the emotion in his voice from his younger self he noticed how much music was an escape for him.
It was quite an awe moment for Jungkook, he barely realized you moved his arms and placed them around you. You settled onto his lap facing him with your arms around his back. He looks back at you with a worried smile.
"You sure there's nothing wrong?" He asks as he watches you nuzzle your face into the crook of his neck.
You nod silently and hold him close. You want the events of today to disappear from your mind, you didn't want to think of Taehyung anymore but your mind was plagued with his distraught face.
Telling Jungkook was out of the question, he would probably try to go and fight him like the time when he found out he cheated on you all those years ago. You just want to be held by him, you were sure you would feel a bit better soon.
Jungkook sighs in defeat, whatever it was you're dealing with he knew you won't tell him any time soon. So he kisses the top of your head and holds you tightly, he heard a small content sigh escape your lips.
"I think I know what'll make you feel better," Jungkook says aloud. "Actually, there are two things that might make you feel better," he corrects making you giggle softly.
"What are they?" You ask curiously.
"Well one of them is the fried chicken I bought for you."
At the sound of the word fried chicken, you quickly stare at Jungkook in excitement. "You bought me some?" You ask eagerly.
Seeing your mood had lightened up slightly Jungkook nods with a relieving smile appearing on his lips.
"Technically, it was for both of us but you can have it. It'll make you feel better," he says while flashing his pearly whites.
You suck in a breath with your heart fleeting at the sight of his bright smile. The kindness his eyes possessed and the affection you felt from the smile you couldn't imagine having a life without Jungkook in it.
Just as those thoughts filled your mind you were plagued with the words Taehyung has spoken mere hours before. You wrap your arms around Jungkook's neck and you give him a hard stare.
"You know I love you, right?"
Jungkook was confused by your sudden proclamation and wondered what was meaning of it all of a sudden. However, it still took him by surprise. He could feel his cheeks turn crimson and automatically bit his lip.
Jungkook clears his throat, "O-of course." He stammers.
"I love you too. A lot more than you think."
You slowly smile at his words, your heart beating twice as fast. You kiss him quickly on the lips before shimming out of his hold and onto the floor. Jungkook watches you with loving eyes as you take out the box of fried chicken sighing heavenly at the smell.
"By the way," you say with mouth full of food. "What's the other thing that'll make me feel better?" You turn to him and see him staring at you like an idiot.
"Jungkook?"
He blinks twice before snapping out of his trance. He shakes his head, "Hm? Oh, the other thing was that we're going to out to dinner on Thrursday." He beams.
You swallow your food with excitement entering your veins. "Really??" You squeal.
Jungkook nods enthusiastically, "Yeah, with both our parents, plus Jimin!"
Your excitement suddenly disappeared as you stare at Jungkook with a faltering smile. Did he say with both your parents? And Jimin??
You shake your head, how are you too supposed to hide your relationship? You gulp and rub your arm nervously, this was all too much.
"Isn't it great?" Jungkook questions excitedly.
You nod hesitantly with a nervous smile. "Uh. . .yeah, sure."
\/\/\/\/\/\/\/
It turns out, nothing was great considering the plans Jungkook dropped on you. He told you of his idea to spring the whole relationship thing during the dinner between your families and your reaction wasn't the best.
Now you sit in Jungkook's car wearing jeans and a fleece sweater with your arms crossed. Jungkook glances to you and sighs.
"Aww, I said was sorry." He whines.
You shrug weakly and stare out the window with a frown. "Just thinking my parents's reactions is stressing me out," you grumble. "Especially my father's."
He wasn't the best person to tell when you started to date someone. Best case scenario he might scare Jungkook a bit.
Jungkook shakes his head with guilt ridding in his head. Maybe he should've talked to you first.
"We don't have to, dear," he says softly. "We can just keep it a secret."
He finally pulls up to his parents's driveway and you see Jimin's car. You inwardly groan, they were already here. When he parks the car Jungkook gently takes your hand and squeezes it comfortingly.
"It's up to you."
You turn to him to see an understanding smile upon his face but his eyes showed slight disappointment. Jungkook wanted to tell his parents, but you didn't want to.
Yet, when you stare into his eyes you knew deep down you want to give him whatever he wants. He deserves it, especially since this carefree moment would never last long.
You take in a breath and squeeze his hand. "Let's tell them."
Jungkook blinks in surprise with his mouth agape. "Huh?" He gapes. "You want to?"
You nod with a smile, "Yeah, I think it'll be interesting."
Jungkook eyes lit up and he beams happily but keeps his excitement to a minimum.
"Are you sure?" He questions once more.
You giggle lightly, "Yes, Jungkook."
His smile widens into your favorite bunny smile and he leans forward and kisses you. "Thank you." He says once he pulls away. You nod silently with a small smile upon your lips.
You both exited the car and walk towards the door. Your body rang in anxiety as cold sweat rolled down your back. Jimin was the one who answered the door and you never realized how grateful you are of him when you see him instead of your parents.
The get-together seemed relaxing enough yet you were tense and stayed by Jungkook's side to slightly erase down your anxiety. You had no idea when Jungkook wanted to spring the news but the sooner he did it the sooner you'll feel better.
Mrs. Jeon and your mother announced that dinner was ready and everyone strode into the dining room. You sat next to Jungkook with Jimin and your mother across. Both your father's sat at each end of the table with Mrs. Jeon sitting beside Jungkook and Mr. Jeon on her left.
Dinner was going smoothly with conversation coming at ease. Your parents talked most the time with Jimin and Jungkook conversing amongst each other separately. You didn't converse on the other hand, you simply focused your attention on your plate even though you had no appetite to eat.
Jungkook notices and secretly grasps your hand under the table. You stiffen at the touch and stare at him in surprise. He doesn't look at you and straighten his posture. You swallow hard and straighten your spine as well.
"Mom, dad," Jungkook starts confidently before looking to your parents. "Mr. and Mrs. Park, I have some news."
Everyone quiets down and stare at Jungkook in curiosity.
"Well, actually we have some news." He gestures his head to you but you don't look up to meet their eyes.
"What is it?" Mr. Jeon questions.
Jungkook looks around once more before taking a breath. "Jisun and I, well, we're dating."
It had seemed time had stopped when Jungkook spoke. Everyone was taking in Jungkook's words at an alarmingly slow rate.
You could feel their stare upon you both yet they didn't seem to bother you as much as the one you felt on your right. Your father balls his hands into fists and stares at you both with heated intensity.
"Excuse me?!" He bellows.
Jimin grasps his cup, smirking before taking a sip. "This is gonna be good."
