JUNGKOOK'S PRINCESS || J.JK {ON HOLD}

CHAPTER 13

Lisa :

Jung kook and I were standing next to each other as we watch the celebration from the castle - a private reception. People talk and laugh gracefully, enjoying the cuisine choosen by the queen to satisfy each of the guests.

When I turn to look at Jung kook, I see that his eyes are tired and look a bit droopy , but he manages to stay and act like he is happy , trying to make everything seem real .

" You're tired " I say , causing him to look down at me

"You can say that" he replies

Seconds before I can say a word , a woman with dark blonde hair starts to make her way towards us , once she reaches them she asks

"Jung kook, remember me ?" I look up at Jung kook, trying to seek his reaction on whether he remembers her or not .

It seems like I'm the person who stands in between while I watch them look at each other. Her face shows hope that he might remember her , but his face shows confusion. he tries his best fo hide it , wanting to make sure that everything is fine and avoid chaos

"It's Jeomi remember?" She asks smiling

Jung kook nods his head and smiles widely before agreeing
"Ofcourse we mut uh-"
He glances in my direction for a few seconds, but then he changes the topic.
"How are you ? It's been a while "

Jeomi doesn't notice that Jung kook does not remember her at all as she continues the conversation. For some reason I feel sorry for her , yet I keep quiet, only smiling while listening to them .

"I'm alright . I can tell you're doing great" she chuckles
"It has been a while since you left for Busan , eight years ago "

His eyes widen slightly, somehow remembering

" I have always wanted to leave " he says

She nods with a smile on her face before turning to look at me ,
" You two are a match made in heaven. Congratulations Jung kook. It's finally nice to meet you again " she says earning a smile from and a nod from Jung kook. I'm pretty sure he is still lost in a world of his own , I thought

Then , she disappears into the crowd

"You don't remember her , do you ?" I glance up at his face , seeing him shake his head slowly with a slight frown on his face .

I only respond back with a chuckle
"She seems like she remembers you very well . How can you not remember?" I ask

"It was a very long time ago, I suppose" he replies

Suddenly a slow so g starts playing as a sign for me and Jung kook to have our first dance . I look around the crowd to see that they already have their eyes set on both of us . Even though it won't be on television, I start to feel slightly nervous because we will be slow dancing in the middle of a ballroom.

Jung kook turns to look at me with a slight smile before giving me his hand. I raise an eyebrow at him as he clears his throat
" I know we have never practised this , but I'll lead you " he says

My eyes wander around the ballroom as the crowd waits for us , so I place my hand in his , loving how they are always warm while mine stay cold most of the time . We walk towards the middle of the ballroom before stopping. To my surprise, Jung kook pulls me by my waist so close that our faces are only inches apart .

I keep quiet not wanting to disrupt the distance between us even though it's slightly uncomfortable

" Does it have to be a formal dance? " I ask lightly near his ear so that the conversation would be only between us .
