His eyes sparkled mischievously when he looked at me but then he glared at Mina.

"Oppa......I.......she.....," Mina stammered, and pointed at me.

Jungkook raised his eyebrow. "Mina, keep your hands off her."

Mina's face turned red.
"She was the one who—"

"Mina leave," Jungkook said in a serious tone.
I've never seen Jungkook so serious, he's usually all cheerful and happy.

Mina scowled and stormed off with her followers.

I rub my left cheek. It still stung from the slap.
Jungkook gently lift up my face.
"You okay?" His face immediately softened.

I nod, and blushed furiously.
Why did he stop her? We barely know  each other.....

Everybody was staring at us. Including Taehyung, who smirked.

Jungkook lead me to the office and they handed me a ice pack.

"If those girls ever bother you tell again—"

"Jungkook it will probably never happen, you scared them to death today," I chuckled, and pressed the ice pack against my cheek.

Jungkook laughed too.

Then there was a awkward silence between us as we walked back.
My heart was beating faster and faster.

"Thank you for what you did.." I suddenly blurted.

Jungkook smiled and patted me on the head.
"You're welcome."

We stare at each other for another second.
"Uh I should get going," Jungkook said and gave me quick smile, showing his perfect set of teeth.

"Y-Yeah, I guess I'll see you later," I stammered. He waved and we parted ways.

Why is my heart beating so fast?

Next day

"Aish Taehyung! Open the door!" I yelled, ringing the door for the fifth time.

It was Saturday and Taehyung invited me over to work on the science project in the morning.

I pressed my ear against his door.

Suddenly the door swung open and I jump back,almost hit by the door.

"Daebak! You scared me—" I look at Taehyung.
He was half naked, with only a towel wrapped around his waist.

I stared at his muscled arms and then his abs—

"Stop staring," Taehyung smirks, and snaps me out of my thoughts.

I quickly cover my eyes and my flustered face.
"Put some clothes on you little kid!"

I hope he can't tell that I'm blushing.
"Why? Don't you want to see me like this," Taehyung teased me.

My heart skipped a beat. "Shut up and put some clothes on or I'm not coming in."

Taehyung rolled his eyes. "Yes mom," He mimicked and slams the door in my face.

Breathe Jiyeon, breathe .
Taehyung returns with clothes on.

I come inside his house, which was huge.
"I didn't know that you were rich," I tease him.

Taehyung hands me a piece of paper and a pencil.
"They're CEOS of a company, now start brainstorming nerd."

I knew it. He wasn't going to do any of the work.

I sit down on his leather couch.
"Okay so I was thinking that our topic should be—"

"Uh this is so boring," he cut me off.

"Are you going to help me or not? This is due next Monday," I remind him.

"Do you have feelings for Jungkook?" He suddenly blurt that out.

My face must have been really red because Taehyung began chuckling.

"Uh I just met him? He was just nice enough to defend me from Mina," I say quickly.

Taehyung laid back on his couch and smirked.
"Sure whatever."

He's trying to piss me off again.......
We decided(correction: I decided) our topic and I started typing our assignment on Taehyung's  laptop.

Taehyung didn't bother to help, he just lay on the other side of the couch and watch me work.

I'm so done with this kid after this project.

"I'm hungry, let's go buy some ice cream," Taehyung suddenly said.

My fingers hurt after typing for so long.
"I'm not done Taehyung," I grumbled.

"Somebody's grumpy," he teased and dragged me outside.
"Ugh! Let go!" I yell at him.

I winced once when I saw sunlight. My eyes are exhausted.

We walked to a nearby ice cream stall and both got vanilla ice cream.

"You're paying," Taehyung said.
I grumble and pull out my purse.
•••
We walked back to his house and started talking about music.

"I like BlackPink a lot," I gushed.
"Don't know who they are and don't care," Taehyung said and took a a huge bite of his ice cream.

I ignored him. "I'm also a huge fan of Exo and—"
"Close your eyes," Taehyung suddenly said, grinning.

"Uh no."
"I going to show something cool, c'mon."

I roll my eyes. He's such a kid.
I reluctantly closed my eyes.

Just then, I felt something cold rubbed all over my entire face.
