"HRI found out about her..."

-----------------------------------------------

"N-No..." Jungkook's eyes widened. His palms got sweaty. His breathe was shaky.

"WHAT THE HECK DO YOU MEAN THEY FOUND OUT?!" Taehyung yelled and immediately averted his gaze towards a frozen Jungkook.

"Jungkook..." Taehyung called out 

"Fuck you" Jungkook mumbled.

"FUCK YOU" Jungkook threw a glass on the floor smashing into small and big pieces. Jungkook walked towards Yuvae and grabbed his collar.

The veins on Jungkook's hands and neck popped as his eyes turned blood shot red.

"B-Boss...B-Boss I-I'm sorry. P-Please! PLEASE!!" Yuvae begged for his life. Tears left his eyes as fear captured his facial expressions.

"JUNGKOOK LEAVE HIM" Yuvae was released from his grip. Courtesy, Kim Taehyung.

"LISTEN FIRST WE NEED TO FOCUS ON GETTING HER BACK. THEN WE CAN DEAL WITH THEM" Taehyung was right. The priority should be getting her back home.

Taehyung and Jungkook ran towards the car. 

"I'll call Jimin hyung" Jungkook nodded at the older's words.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Kook. stay calm okay. Just don't lose your temper" Jungkook nodded at Jimin and went inside.

"Ugh you're getting annoying now" The younger figure sassed. But to her surprise, Jungkook did not retaliate. 

"Listen. I know you hate me. I deserve it. But let's go home. P-Please" Jungkook's voice softened as his vocals were shaky.

"Are you crazy?" She scrunched up her nose.

"Yell at me as much as you want. Hit me, shoot me. First let's go to my house" Jungkook practically begged.

"Bro for real...are you possessed?" She averted her gaze from Jungkook, hiding her guilt.

"Can we please go home?"

"This is my home Jungkook. Like you said it was...I don't mind shifting places but I just hate you now. If I'm being honest, you disgust me and I don't even wanna be with you. Let alone live. Being with you suffocates me. Sorry but this is the truth." His heart ached so bad. He loved her so damn much and here she is, letting him know how "disgusting" he is.

But somewhere, Jungkook knew he deserves it. He hurt her.

"Fine. I'm going. But I promise I'll come back...and the next time I do, I'll take you home" Jungkook's voice this time, came cold and sharp.

"And I promise you, Jeon Jungkook, I won't give in. I'd rather die than live with you"

"Any luck?" Jungkook was greeted by 2 concerned faces.

"No hyung. She doesn't hate me. She despises me"

"No she doesn't kook. She's just hurt and angry"

Jimin and Taehyung looked at Jungkook with pitiful gazes.

"Let's go. I need a coffee"

--------------------------

"Danwoo oppa...stop at the nearest cafe, please"

You got down from the car and walked into the 'Friendly Beans.'

Craving: Caramel macchiato. Reminded you of him. And you didn't know coincident or not but the speakers played:

Baby, Baby. You're a caramel macchiato

Your scent is still sweet on my lips. 

Baby, Baby Tonight 

Yeah

You ordered one and were going towards your seat when suddenly you bumped into a rock hard chest. You were ready to apologize a million times but...

"Watch where you're goi- Y/n?!"

"Sorry- Ko- Jungkook...?" You looked down and played with your clothes.

"Sorry." He mumbled.

For what tho? Bumping into you, or about the fight, or not reaching out. For what, exactly?

"I-It was my fault, Jungkook"

AGAIN?! At this point you didn't know the context you were speaking in. Your fault for which matter. Bumping into him because you were lost in the song? Or because y'all fought? Or because you didn't reach out.

"So...how are you" He asked, avoiding eye contact.

"G-Great. What about you?"

"Great" 

"Wanna have your coffee with...me?" He continued, rubbing the nape of his neck.

"Err...sure" You shrugged and walked towards a table that right next to a huge glass window. Busy roads, pedestrians trying to cross the street, people walking their pets. Just like any other day. But for you, this day could determine your relationship.

Jungkook's French roast and your macchiato arrived.

It was...

...awkward.

No! Not the coffee! The atmosphere between you and him.

You sipped your coffee as he did too.

What are we just sitting here to drink coffee or will you talk?

Or should I start the convo...

Should I apologize?

No I will look desperate.

But this idiot won't speak.

Should I just say it?

Ugh

Fuck it.

"I'm Sorry"

"I'm Sorry"

Both of you laughed a bit  at the sync of your apologies.

"No...really, It's my fault. I should've told you" You sighed before speaking.

"No, I overreacted. I should've been calm"

"But if I told you, this would've never happen."

"But I'm your boyfriend, I'm supposed to ensure that you trust me. I shouldn't have yelled"

"Yes but I took matter into my own hands rather than informing you. It was reckless of me"

"Yes but I could've been calm"

"Right but It's my fault too"

"Right but more of mine fault"

"No"

"Yes"

"We're doing this again!!"

He chuckled as i burst into laughter.

"Ok now seriously, I'm sorry for hiding that from you"

"And I'm sorry for yelling at you"

You both sipped your coffees. Yours sweet, with espresso and lots of milk making it sweet and pleasant with caramel with a tint of vanilla syrup.

His, a French roast...an intense coffee with a smoky-bitter flavour, accompanied by a thin body and mouthfeel.

"Actually it wasn't" Jungkook looked up with a confused look on his face, when you spoke.

"I wasn't feeling great...I missed you" You admitted, sighing.

A pink hue painted across his cheeks. 

It's like you both switched rolls today.

"When we fought, my days became like your French roast. Bitter. And whenever we were  together, I felt like a caramel macchiato. Just with a few extra pumps of vanill--ARE YOU BLUSHING?!" You covered your mouth realizing how loud you were. You passed apologetic looks to people around you.

"Are you actually blushing?!" You said much softer. 

"No, my coffee is just a bit too hot" He looked away.

"I love you" You blew a kiss, and the colour on his cheeks intensified.

He didn't know what happened to him and you didn't know what happened to you. Was it the caffeine that caused the confident boost or what?!

"Hey, my name's Microsoft. Can I crash at your place tonight??" He looked at you for with a shocked expression, but your aim was to make him admit that indeed, he was blushing.

"Do you know CPR, cause you just took my breathe away!" You cringed internally, but continued anyway.

"Is your m--,"

"Ok fine! I'm blushing!! Now tell me how do I stop this?!"

"It doesn't stop Mr. Gangsta" You laughed.

----

"Me and Y/n are good now" Jimin jumped a bit on his seat.

"What?! Oh my god, that's great news!!" Jimin gave his crescent eye smile to Jungkook.

"Yeah. I feel a bit better now" He sighed.

"Congratulations" Taehyung gave him a brotherly hug. Both of them knew how tensed he was because of this morning but they could at least attempt to make him feel better.

"Hyung, I'm really worried. I won't be able to live without her. HRI is dangerous. He might even kill her to get revenge on me." Jungkook diverted the topic from Y/n to her. Just like that...without a warning.

"No! None of that will happen" Jimin reassured the younger.

"Yes...and don't worry. She will be fine. We will bring her back and increase security in the meantime." Taehyung pat Jungkook's back.

-----------------

"Good night oppa" You kissed their cheeks and went upstairs. Happy and cheerful from what happened today. You even forgot about the thing with Hoseok. 

Me

I'm going to sleep...good night. Sleep well and take care of yourself. 

Not having energy to wait for a reply, you slowly drifted off to sleep.

This is the sleep you've been craving for so many days but didn't get. But finally! Now that you've got Jungkook by your side, you can be a bit more carefree.

Right?
