"So I'll move in with you." Lisa suddenly blurt from across his dinner table as Jungkook stalled mid bite, at the abrupt news.

"Sorry?" He asked as she put her utensils down and eyed him.

"I'll move in with you, that is, if the offer is still on the table." She spoke it broken phrases as his eyes widened.

"Yeah! Yeah...it's on the table...the offer I mean. Uh, really?" He asked at the end, truly in disbelief of her saying yes out of nowhere.

"Yeah. It's just, I thought about it, and I really like you. I feel like if I move in, we'll become something serious, you know? And I want for us to be serious." She explained as he smiled, standing up and walking over to her side of the table.

"I'm really happy. Because I want us to be serious too. I really like you, Lis." He told her as he crouched down beside her, taking her hand in his.

"Okay. Uh, that's good. So how are we working this out? Should I pay rent? And are we sp-" She began as Jungkook tsked at her rampage.

"Lisa. You're not paying rent. You're not doing anything other than taking your things and moving in here. I'll clear out closet space for you in the master bedroom."  Jungkook affirmed as her eyes widened.

"Master? But that's your room. Are you sure I shouldn't take a guest room instead?" She quickly asked as he shook his head.

"Don't be stupid Lisa. Of course I'd want you in the master with me. And it's not that big of a deal, the house was originally designed with the master having two walk ins and two sinks anyways. So yes, I'm sure you should come to the master. Unless you want your own space. I'm fine with that too, no pressure." He quickly ended as she pursed her lips.

"No it's not that. I just don't want to intrude..." she trailed off as he sighed.

"Lisa, look at me, properly. You're not intruding. I wouldn't even ask if I didn't want this, and I really do want this. I want you and our relationship, okay?" He reassured her as she slowly let out a smile and nodded.

"Okay. Then the master sounds great." She smiled as he smiled back.

"Great. No-" Jungkook began but was cut short by the sound of the dining room entrance being opened, as he quickly stood up, trying to be more aware of the situation as as far as they knew, other than the butler who was under strict instructions to not interrupt them, all the other staff went home.

"What...is going on here?" A male voice called out as Lisa stood up once she noticed Jungkook stiffen.

"Who's this?" A female voice continued as the two figures fully stepped into the room.

Lisa in response faces Jungkook, not quite knowing what to say or do as she was unfamiliar with these individuals herself, and only grew more puzzled at his sigh.

"Mom, dad....." he began as Lisa let out a gasp underneath her breath and snapped her eyes back to the two in the room.

His parents. She was meeting his parents right then and there with no preparation or idea of how she should act around them.

"...meet Lisa. My girlfriend." Jungkook continued, not aiding Lisa's panic once bit as she politely bowed towards them, plastering on a perfected fake smile.

She was thankful that at least during the whole encounter he had finally taken her hand in his for support and maybe a twinge of guilt for throwing them in this predicament.

"Nice to meet you, Mr and Mrs Jeon." Lisa greeted diplomatically as she anticipated their reaction.

Jungkook's father had only returned the greeting in a polite enough manner yet kept his face stoic and rather skeptic.
