Chapter 14

Jinhee POV

I sat on Jungkook's bed, thinking hard about what just happened. I am seriously so embarrassed.

Why didn't I check that there was someone in the toilet before barging in like that?!

Typical of me.

He must have been terrified. I laughed heartily at the thought. Jeon Jungkook, scared because someone walked in on him putting on his clothes in the toilet.

I checked the time again and realised that it was 3.30pm.

At that moment, I heard the doorbell ring. I assumed Jungkook's mother would be opening the door, but I heard the bell ring again, so I headed downstairs to open the door.

I looked in the kitchen, expecting to find Mrs Jeon in there, cooking or baking.

I was surprised to find the kitchen empty and bowls of all sorts placed on the kitchen counter.

Maybe she went out?

I was pulled out of my thoughts by the incessant ringing of the doorbell, again.

I rushed to the living room, almost tripping over the plush carpet and falling flat on my face while doing so.

Luckily I caught myself just in time and I threw open the big door.

There stood Jimin oppa and the rest of BTS.

I smiled at them and stood aside to let them in.

They looked worried, so I reassured them, "I think he's fine now. I helped to get rid of his fever."

They thanked me and shrugged off their thanks.

What are friends for?

Jungkook POV

To say that I was embarrassed would be an understatement.

Try mortified.

I can't believe Jinhee just opened the door like THAT.

Well I guess I can't blame her cause I was the one who didn't lock the door.

Luckily the bathroom is soundproof, what would she have thought if she heard me making all that ratchet?

I cringed and headed downstairs to grab some water.

I felt much better now, thanks to Jinhee and her amazing ability to heal others.

I spotted a note lying on the kitchen counter, it was from Omma. "I'll be going out to do some shopping, I want to bake some of your favorite cookies. Don't worry I'll take care of myself. Sleep well and take your medicine, I see that Jinhee is taking good care of you, considering the fact that you were strong enough to completely engulf her in one of your bear hugs."

I blushed at the last sentence, a little flustered that Omma had found us in such an intimate position.

I pocketed the note and went to the living room, where I thought I heard voices.

I saw my hyungs and Jinhee sitting on the sofas and I smiled. They came to see me I suppose.

"Jungkookie! How're feeling? Better? We we're just talking about you. What happened? Did you eat something bad?"

Jin hyung made my presence noticed. I shook my head and sat down next to V hyung.

"I don't know what happened, I was fine yesterday, but when I woke up this morning I felt lightheaded and I blacked out after I went to the toilet."

No way in heck I was going to tell them the real reason for me being sick.

My hyungs oohed and aahed, and I suddenly felt sick all over again.

Jinhee and Jimin hyung weren't sitting together.

I furrowed my eyebrows, curious, aren't the two of them a couple?

I looked away before anyone saw my increasing interest in the other two.

Why couldn't they sit apart? It's none of my business!

They probably don't want anybody to know yet, though they probably have no inkling that I was spying on them yesterday.

Everyone was just sitting around, bored, so I grabbed the TV remote control and switched it to Netflix.

"Who wants to watch a movie?"

Jinhee POV

Something is off with Jungkook.

Just a few seconds ago, I caught him staring at Jimin oppa and then me.

I averted my eyes before he saw me looking at him, but I could feel his gaze on me, it made me feel weird, a little...flustered?

I've never experienced these feelings before.

Is this...nah it can't be what am I talking about?

I've only befriended the guy for less a week how can I be falling in love with this guy?

Okay sure he's got a handsome face and he's tall and he's got a nice personality and he's everything I would want in a boyfriend.

Oh who am I kidding?

Get a grip on yourself Park Jinhee!

I am brought out of the mental argument with myself by Taehyung oppa, who said, "Jinhee ah you okay?"

I blinked.

It took me a second to comprehend what he just said.

Then I saw the boys looking at me expectantly, so I replied, "Yeah, I'm fine. Why?"

They cocked an eyebrow simultaneously.

Woah that's creepy.

I shifted a little under they're intense gazes, nervous, but they broke into wide smiles not one second later.

I just stared at them, dumbfounded, these boys are seriously weird.

They stared back, except Jungkook, who was busy staring at the TV screen, and Yoongi oppa, who didn't bother to join them in the first place, he lay down on the sofa and slept instead.

"Why are you guys smiling at me like that? It's creepy."

They recovered, but a ghost of a smile lingered on their lips.

Then, Taehyung oppa spoke up, wiggling his eyebrows at the same time, "Are you thinking of something or, rather, someone?"

I choked on my saliva and out of the corner of my eye, I saw Jungkook's head snap towards me.

I managed to croak out a startled, "What?!" before I resumed coughing and spluttering again.

The five weirdos just sat there, watching me slowly turn purple in my attempts to stop the coughing.

When I finally managed to get my throat back under my control, I glared at the five males.

They flinched a little and I saw Hoseok oppa go from a sitting position to a squatting position, as if he was getting ready to run for his life.

I just chuckled and turned down my glare a few notches. These boys are too cute.

They sighed with relief, and Jungkook turned his attention back to the TV.

The forever curious Taehyung oppa scooted next to me and whispered, "Who is it?"

I was confused, "Who is who?"

He facepalmed and said, "The person you like? I dunno you tell me. I was watching you and you looked like you were in love."

I was horrified. In love?! No way man! Nope nope nope!

I shook my head profusely and gave him what I thought would be a convincing answer, "I don't like anybody, I've never even had a boyfriend before."

"WHAT?!"

Shit, I didn't mean to say that so loudly.

I turned to the owner of that voice and almost laughed out loud. Jungkook's face was priceless!

His expression was a mixture of confusion and disbelief, and his mouth hanging wide open wasn't helping much to cease my uncontrollable giggles.

The room had gone silent after the comment that I didn't have a boyfriend.

Puzzled, I looked to Jin oppa for an explanation. He just shook his head and said, "We're just confused, how such a sweet girl like you has never had a boyfriend, I'm sure many people are interested in you."

As he said the last sentence, his gaze shifted to Jungkook, who was squirming uncomfortably in his seat.

Does Jungkook like me? How is that even possible? He's been bullying me since the first day we met. I shrugged off the thought and proceeded to answer Jin oppa, "I made a promise to myself not to date until I found the right person, who I still have not found."

At this, Taehyung oppa pouted and clung onto my arm, "How bout me Jinhee no fair I thought we were best buddies!"

I laughed and pinched his cheeks, "Haha oppa you're just too good for me, but you'll always be my special friend."

HE'S SO ADORABLE!!! Hyejin and him would look good together.

I stood up and said, "Toilet break."

The rest nodded and pointed to the stairs.

I bounded up two flights of stairs and burst into Jungkook's room, cause why not?

Anyway it's the only toilet that I can find.

I did my business and hurried out, by the time I went downstairs again, the boys were getting ready to leave.

I told them I would stay to make sure Jungkook was alright before I left. They waved goodbye and I closed the door.

Jungkook had retreated to his room sometime during the goodbyes, so I knocked on his door and went in when I heard his soft, "Come in."
