I'm Not Your Oppa | Jeon Jungkook x Reader

Chapter Six

Chapter Six

I stare up at Jungkook's face, soft and illuminated by the street lamps providing us with light against the crisp chilly night air. We've been hanging out a lot lately and when we aren't we're most likely texting, I've always had trust issues, but with him, I don't. I can't put my finger on what makes him so trustworthy but I've never trusted anyone like I have with him. I've known him a week, yet I've shared things not even Emily or my dad know: the two closest people to me. Not only have I shared things with him though, he's told me all about himself too. Stuff about how being in a group isn't as glamorous as it seems and the struggles he's dealt with.

*"You're going back at the end of the week, aren't you?" I ask as we sit down on the edge of the pavement, our feet flat against the road.

*"Yes." He frowns, I look down glumly and we transfer to silence. I had a feeling he was going back soon but I wasn't absolutely sure as to how soon it'd be. He's only here for two weeks to visit his family, then he's going back to Seoul. A minute or two later, Jungkook's hand slowly brushes against the small of my back, I look up to find that he's gazing down at me. It's like that for a moment before he clears his throat and pulls away, I straighten my posture and attempt to puke up some words to make the situation less awkward.

*"I'll miss you." I smile, it's true. Although I have Yuna, Soomi, Tae and even Joon now I just know it won't be the same without having Jungkook around. It sounds utterly insane, I barely know the guy after all.

*"I'll miss you too but you can come to Seoul and visit." He tells me hopefully.

*"You won't be busy?"

*"I'd always find the time for you."

Jungkook walked me home after we spent the day together, simply just walking around and occasionally stopping at various cafes. Jungkook grew up here and offered to show me around and show me some of the places he loved, which included a small park. It was clearly old, only a slide remaining in it, tatty, rickety and almost non-existent but Jungkook claims it was so much better as a child. I saw why he liked it so much, despite it's gloomy looking front but I'm not one to judge quickly.

"You're home then," my dad smiles, his head popping into my room, interrupting the short movie of memories I was watching within my head. "Can I come in?"

"Sure," I respond, gesturing towards the end of my bed which he soon takes a seat at.

"Was you hanging out with Jungkook again?" I raise an eyebrow at him, confusion consuming my face whilst I place my laptop to the side.

"Yes, why?"

"Be careful."

"Why?"

"He's an older boy."

"Barely," I giggle. "He's just turned twenty and I'll be leaving school soon, there isn't much of a gap, and besides nothing is going to happen." He nods his head cautiously, unsure whether or not to take comfort in my words. I'm not sure I can truly take comfort in them myself quite honestly, not after our small moment earlier. The way his hand rested on me made me feel different to how it should've, it was oddly comforting and before we realised what the situation truly was it didn't feel awkward or uncomfortable.

"Y/N?" My dad asks, his hand waving in front of my face whilst he interrupts my thoughts again. I smile as if for him to go on with what he was saying. "Do you want a hot chocolate?"

"Yes, please!" I giggle, watching him walk out of the room before returning to what I was previously thinking. It's all stupid really, therefore I shake my head and attempt to forget all about it.

*Good luck, you'll do amazingly!

A small smile somehow appears onto my face at the message I just received but before I have the time to reply, I turn my phone off and enter the silent room, rows of wooden tables and chairs laid out strictly. This is the test we've all been revising for, more so Yuna and Tae though, Soomi, Joon and I, however, kept getting distracted. I've got no other choice but to simply do my best though, which is exactly what I'll do.

Once the test is over, the dreadfully prolonged one, I almost sprint from the building and get home. Originally, Yuna and I were supposed to hang out but my mind is far too frazzled and something is urging me to just hang out with Jungkook instead; all with the time we have left. My legs, burning from the jog, pass the relatively bare oak trees, feather-like branches now melting in with the sky. The leaves crunch viciously underneath my eager feet until they finally get to their destination, my front door.

"How'd it go?" My mum asks hopefully, a half washed cup in her bubble riddled and raisin-like hands, she watches me pant for air like a dog after an eventful walk. I shrug my shoulders as a response and smile hopelessly, honestly, I don't think I did well at all. My mum has always been obsessed with me doing well in school, which is why for now until I get my results she'll stay uncertain. I jog up the stairs and throw myself and my bag onto the bed. During the test, I kept thinking about last night, how Jungkook's hand felt on my skin. I shouldn't be thinking about it, or even making a big deal about it but it consumes my mind like woodworm to a house. Up until now, I haven't thought anything of him but a friend, an amazing friend. However, my mind is now plagued with weird feelings I can't even begin to comprehend.

*How'd it go?

And with such effortless words, my body tingles for his touch again. I just want to see him.

I'm so sorry the update took so long! I hope you enjoyed the new chapter, thank you for all the support so far :)
