JUNGKOOK'S POV

I have just made love to my girlfriend. The thought alone is enough to send a shiver of disbelief coursing through me. I can scarcely believe that we are truly together, that she is mine and I am hers. Even more astonishing is the revelation that she knew—she knew all along that I had been watching her through the window, all those times when I thought I was hidden in the shadows. And yet, she doesn’t care. Not in the slightest. A soft, incredulous smile tugs at my lips as I bury my face into the curve of her neck, my breath still ragged and uneven. I shift us gently onto our sides, my body still intimately connected to hers, unwilling to sever the closeness just yet. 

I begin to pull away, but her hand—warm and possessive—stops me, gripping my backside firmly. “Nope,” she murmurs, her voice drowsy but resolute. “No?” I ask, my voice tinged with amusement and a flicker of curiosity. “No,” she repeats, her tone leaving no room for argument. “I like you inside of me.” A low, breathy chuckle escapes me, though I can feel the heat rising to my cheeks, a mixture of bashfulness and raw affection. “Okay,” I whisper, my voice soft but steady. “I’ll stay.” She yawns then, a delicate sound that makes my chest tighten with adoration, and nestles even closer, her body moulding perfectly against mine. “Goodnight, Jungkook,” she murmurs, her words already slurring with sleep. 

I press a tender kiss to her forehead, my heart swelling with a warmth I can hardly contain. “Goodnight, Y/N,” I reply, my voice barely above a whisper, as though speaking too loudly might shatter the perfection of this moment. 

━━

I awaken to the intoxicating scent of Y/N, a fragrance so uniquely hers that it feels as though I am discovering it for the very first time. How had I never noticed how utterly divine she smelled? Perhaps it is because I was never this close to her before, never allowed the privilege of sharing such an intimate space where her essence could envelop me so completely. I press my face deeper into the delicate curve of her neck, inhaling deeply, as if I could commit every note of her aroma to memory. My arms instinctively tighten around her waist, pulling her closer, as though my very soul refuses to let go. With her warmth pressed against me and her scent lulling me into a state of serene contentment, I feel myself drifting back into the embrace of sleep, utterly at peace. 

━━

A soft, mellifluous voice calls my name, gently pulling me from the embrace of sleep. My eyelids flutter open, and the first thing I see is Y/N smiling beside me, her beauty so effortless that it never fails to steal my breath away. How did I get so lucky? The thought lingers in my mind as she whispers, "Hey, Jungkook."

"Hi," I murmured, a lazy smile tugging at my lips.

She lifts a delicate hand, brushing a stray lock of hair away from my eyes, her touch featherlight. "I have to get up and go home," she says softly.

A small frown forms on my face as I shake my head and tighten my hold around her, unwilling to let her go just yet. "Why can't you stay?" I grumble, my voice thick with sleep.

She releases a breathless laugh, the sound tickling my skin and leaving a trail of goosebumps in its wake. "Well, for one, I have no clothes," she reasons, her voice tinged with amusement. "And two, I have a few errands to run—"

"Can I come? Please?" I interrupt before she can finish, my best pleading expression in place as I gaze at her expectantly.

A knowing smile spreads across her lips. "Yes, I’d love for you to come. In fact, I was about to suggest it myself before you rudely cut me off," she teases, her eyes twinkling. "I don’t want to leave you just yet either."

Before I can respond, she begins peppering my face with a flurry of soft kisses, her lips warm and teasing against my skin. I can't help but laugh, the sound is deep and genuine.

"Gosh, you’re so cute," she coos, adoration evident in her voice.

I raise a brow, quickly catching her face in my hands to halt her relentless assault. "I’m cute?" I repeat incredulously, tilting my head as I scrutinise her expression.

She nods without hesitation, still cradled in my hands. "Yes, you’re absolutely adorable."

I scoff lightly, shaking my head. "No one’s ever called me that before. It’s usually the opposite—no, it is the opposite."

"Well," she says, grinning, "I’m glad to be the first."

She leans in to press a quick kiss to my lips before pulling away just enough to ask, "Can I use your shower?"

I smirk, tilting my head. "Can I come?"

She rolls her eyes, but the fond smile never leaves her face. With an exasperated sigh, she gets up, tugging me along with her. I let her pull me towards the bathroom, a grin plastered on my face the entire way.

━━

"Hey! Stop grabbing me," she huffs, swatting my hand away from her backside as she continues striding down the aisle.

Yet, despite her protest, the way she sways her hips—slow, deliberate—tells me she doesn’t mind that much. A smirk tugs at my lips as I quicken my pace to catch up, slipping a finger into the belt loop of her jeans instead.

"Fine," I murmured, tugging her slightly closer. "Let me stay like this, then."

She glances at me over her shoulder, amusement dancing in her eyes. "You’re so clingy," she teases.

I merely shrug, walking beside her. "I know. Just making up for all the times I couldn't touch you."

That seems to make her pause. She stops pushing the cart and turns to face me, her gaze softening, those beautiful eyes brimming with something warm—something that makes my chest tighten.

"You’re so cute, you know that?" she whispers, standing on her tiptoes to brush her lips against mine.

"So I've been told," I murmured, smiling against her lips.

I’m just about to deepen the kiss, to savour her warmth a little longer, when she suddenly pulls away. A frown tugs at my brows.

"What?" I ask, a little dazed.

She exhales a playful sigh, her lips curving into a smirk. "Because if we keep kissing, I’ll start wanting to have sex with you right here in this aisle. And I’d really rather not get arrested for shagging in a grocery store, so… let’s continue shopping, babe."

My eyes widen slightly at her bluntness, and the heat rising to my face is almost instant.

Before I can formulate a response, she grabs my hand and places it right back on her belt loop, as if it belongs there. Then, without another word, she resumes walking, as if she hadn’t just said the most outrageous thing in the middle of a public store.

I shake my head, a slow grin spreading across my face as I follow her lead.

━━

Y/N lets out a soft yawn as she places the last of the groceries into the fridge, her movements sluggish with exhaustion.

“Tired?” I ask gently, approaching her from behind and wrapping my arms securely around her waist. I bend down slightly, resting my head on her shoulder, inhaling the faint, familiar scent of her.

“Yeah,” she murmurs, voice laced with sleep. “I’m gonna take a nap. Wanna join?” Another quiet yawn escapes her, the warmth of her breath tickling my skin.

"I'd love to." I press a lingering kiss to her cheek, and she takes my hand, leading us to her bedroom.

As soon as we step inside, she shuts the door behind us and casually shimmies out of her jeans, leaving her in just her t-shirt and underwear before pulling on those shorts—the ones she knows I love. She makes a point of meeting my gaze, mischief flickering in her tired eyes, before giving me a cheeky wink. Then, with a satisfied sigh, she hops onto the bed, sprawling out with a relaxed groan.

I shake my head, smirking, before ridding myself of my jeans as well, leaving me in nothing but my boxer briefs. I climb into bed beside her, but just as she shifts to make room for me, I place my hand on the small of her back, stopping her.

“What are you doing?” she asks, her voice thick with drowsiness.

“I wanna sleep right here,” I reply, lowering my head onto the curve of her backside, arms wrapping snugly around her thighs.

She tilts her head, giving me a half-hearted, amused glare. “Right there?”

“Yup.” I grin, feeling entirely too pleased with myself.

She exhales an exaggerated sigh but doesn’t protest, instead rolling her eyes with a playful smile. “Fine. But hold my hand—I want to at least have some part of you within reach while I sleep.”

Obliging, I unwrap one arm from her thigh, reaching up to take her smaller hand in mine. I bring it to my lips, pressing a tender kiss to her knuckles before resting it gently atop the mattress.

“Goodnight, Y/N,” I murmur.

“Night, babe,” she mumbles into her pillow, her voice barely above a whisper before sleep claims her.

I let out a quiet chuckle, tightening my hold around her as I close my eyes, completely content.

━━

"Why are we here?" I ask, my brows knitting together in confusion.

"Shh," she hushes me swiftly, placing a finger against my lips before glancing around as if we’re on some top-secret mission. "And get down here—why are you still standing up?"

Before I can protest, she rises from her crouched position and grabs my shoulders, tugging me down onto the cool grass beside her. A quiet chuckle escapes me at her determination.

"Why are we here?" I whisper again, watching as she carefully parts the bushes in front of us, peering through the dense foliage like a professional spy.

She smirks before casting me a sideways glance. "As I said before, you were a terrible stalker, so we're here to prove that I’m much better at it than you."

I roll my eyes but can’t help the fond smile tugging at my lips. "And who exactly are we stalking?" I humour her, though curiosity begins to creep in.

My question seems to amuse her because she turns to me with a smug grin, her eyes gleaming with mischief.

"Your parents."

"What?" I splutter, my head snapping towards her as I gape in disbelief. "My parents?" My voice rises slightly, and she immediately clamps a hand over my mouth, muffling any further protests.

"Shh," she warns playfully. "Do you want to get us caught?"

I huff, my lips still pressed against her palm. When she finally lets go, I shake my head and whisper urgently, "But this isn't their house!"

"I know," she replies with an air of arrogance, as if she’s a step ahead of me in some grand master plan. "This is their friend’s house."

And as if on cue, the familiar sight of my mum’s car pulls into the driveway. My eyes widen when I see her and my dad step out, completely unaware that their son is currently hiding in a bush, spying on them like a lunatic.

"I know your sister has football practice too," she continues casually, as if discussing something as mundane as the weather. "We could go there after."

The sheer nonchalance in her tone makes me burst into quiet laughter. She speaks as if this is the most normal thing in the world.

I shake my head in disbelief before murmuring, "I love you."

And then—I freeze.

The realization crashes over me like a tidal wave. My breath catches in my throat as I slowly turn to look at her, my heart pounding. I said it. Out loud. To her.

I’ve known for a while that I loved her, even before we got together. But still, what if it’s too soon? What if she freaks out? What if—

Before my thoughts can spiral further, she lets out a soft, melodic laugh, her eyes brimming with something warm, something indescribable. She gazes at me in that way I’m certain I’ve looked at her countless times before.

And then she says it—like it’s the easiest thing in the world.

"I love you too."
