Can I Love You

10

"good morning"
Jungkook greets her after she walks out of their gate. Taehyung didn't know he was there waiting for her. She turned to look at him smiling, greeting him good morning too

"Tae"  he calls and Taehyung walks side by side with him, she looks different this morning, she's glowing. He doesn't know if that is because she's happy or the reflection of the sun to her

She holds him in his upper arm and smiles beautifully looking up at him. He watches her and for a moment he wants to hold her hand that is holding him

"Hmm? What is it?" Taehyung asks smiling and he swears. He wants her to be like this at him forever. He's melting.

"Do you have to look at me like that? What are you doing with my poor heart?" 

He said while holding his chest with his other hand laughing at her. It comes out as a joke but for Jungkook it's not. She really doing something at him

"Hyungie, don't spoil my mood!"  She sway his arm on her hold. She's smiling but warning him as well

"Just kidding" he smiles and he thinks it's been a while since they became like this again. He should make her smile more. Her smile is different than yesterday while with JM

This time her eyes shine

"About JM.."
He looks away, he can't stay looking at her. His heart beats faster. She looks more beautiful today than any other day

"What about him?"

She still does not bother what he wants to know about the boy that is always with her these past few days

"Did you know already?" He asks hesitantly

"About what?"

"That he likes you?"

Taehyung stops walking.. he didn't ask her to ride a bus today. He wants to have a talk and they couldn't do that if they will ride a bus going to school

"No I didn't!"

She slips her hand away from him and he didn't like it. He wants to feel her palm against his skin

"I thought you already knew"

"Jinah told me but I don't want to believe her"

"you don't want to believe her? Why? She's telling the truth"

"How can you tell me she's telling the truth? I won't believe anything about what he feels about me until he's the one telling that to me"

Her smiles are gone as she starts to walk again leaving him. Jungkook matches her speed. She seems to want to run away from it

"Tae" 
He calls again holding her in the wrist

"What?"

"Why are you angry?"

"I'm not and what makes you think that he likes me?" She said a little bit louder this time

"But you are mad.. don't tell me you  didn't notice him? He's so obvious! I can tell he likes you babe. He told me himself that he likes you!"

"Stop calling me that! you're just giving meaning to everything he does. It's nothing. He doesn't like me because if he does he will tell me and... And I don't want it!"

"I'll call you anything I want and don't be in denial and what do you mean you don't want it? You don't like him or you don't like him liking you?"

"Maybe both?" She answers but that only makes him more confused but he is satisfied with her answer
