“Jiwoo's boyfriend”

***

Jungkook sat next to Jiah with crossed arms, visibly unimpressed as she continued chatting away. Meanwhile, Jimin, Jiwoo, and Jin reveled in their free meal at another table, justifying their desertion by claiming they couldn't reveal their faces in front of a stranger.

"Guys, I'm finished. I'm going back to my boyfriend before that girl next to him makes his ears bleed," Jiwoo declared, rising from her chair. Jin stood up as well, teasingly remarking, "Mission Save Jiwoo's Kookie Koo." In response, Jiwoo smacked him on the butt.

"But I'm not finished," Jimin mumbled, devouring his food at lightning speed. "Sounds like a 'you' problem. Let's go, Jiwoo," Jin urged. Jiwoo smirked at Jimin, bidding him farewell with a casual "See ya later, dummy."

Jungkook felt a light touch on his arm as someone took a seat next to him. Turning to his side, he sighed in relief, a smile breaking across his face as he saw Jiwoo. Jiah, who had been occupying the seat for the past 30 minutes, sported a frown. Throughout the meal, Jungkook hadn't even touched his food, and his scowl was unmistakable.

"Eat up, dummy," Jiwoo instructed, and Jungkook nodded, finally digging into his meal. Jiah almost scoffed at his sudden change in demeanor. Jin, watching the scene unfold, couldn't help but smile, finding Jungkook and Jiwoo's relationship undeniably cute.

Jungkook choked on his food when Jimin smacked him on the back in greeting. "Ji, water," he croaked, and Jiwoo quickly offered him the cup. Jiah, however, did the same. "I think he asked me. My name has a 'Ji' in it, so," Jiah said with a smile directed at Jiwoo. Jungkook took the cup from Jiwoo and took a sip, prompting Jiwoo to give Jiah a polite eye smile before turning to Jimin with a murderous expression.

"Sorry, sorry Jungkook, I'm so sorry, please forgive me. Jungkook, save me; she's gonna murder me," Jimin pleaded in panic, and Jungkook burst into laughter. Jiwoo, watching him laugh, couldn't help but gaze at him with a tender expression- god, she loved this man so much.

"It's okay, Ji. Just let it go," Jungkook reassured, and Jiwoo scoffed. "Jimin, credit card," she demanded, and Jimin gasped dramatically. "But Jungkook is the one who was hurt," he protested, and Jiwoo put on a sad expression. "I guess Jin is the best brother, and I might have to post that on my story," Jiwoo declared, leaving Jimin's jaw hanging.

"Aww, you and Jin are siblings? That's a bummer," Jiah chimed in, and Jin furrowed his brows. "I mean, Jiwoo and I really aren't siblings. We just treat each other like that. But why would that be a bummer?" he clarified. Jiah smiled, "Well, both of you look great together. You both have the perfect height difference."

Jungkook side-eyed her and couldn't resist commenting, "Jin and I are the same height." Jiwoo burst into laughter. "How is that related to them?" Jiah asked in confusion, and Jiwoo sighed, almost rolling her eyes. "Well, you see, Jungkook right here is my boyfriend," Jiwoo declared, intertwining her arm with his.

Jiah's smile vanished, replaced by a look of hurt as she turned to Jungkook for confirmation. Jungkook withdrew his arm from Jiwoo's, earning disapproving glares from Jin and Jimin. Smirking, Jiah seized the opportunity.

Jiwoo, still puzzled, glanced at Jungkook for an explanation. However, Jungkook swiftly pulled Jiwoo's chair right next to his, sneaking his arm around her waist.

"I sure am Jiwoo's boyfriend," Jungkook affirmed, resting his head on hers. Jiwoo rolled her eyes, a smile playing on her lips, and she playfully elbowed him in the ribs. Jimin blinked at the scene, remarking, "I think this is what they call déjà vu. This man did the exact same thing in front of Yoongi."
