The Other Woman | Kim Taehyung

4

I walked back to the campus looking for Taehyung. I just wanted to tell him that what Jungkook had said in the park wasn't true. He wasn't my boyfriend, just an asshole. I don't know why but something about the way he walked away made me feel weird. I wanted him to stay, but he also looked mad. 

As I was nearing the Business building, I saw him standing beside his girlfriend with his arms wrapped around her. They looked really happy together and I could see how the passers-by were slightly jealous of them. I mean, they looked pretty damn hot. His eyes landed on me for a second and his smile faded before he turned his head to face his girlfriend again. 

I didn't want to step out my boundaries so I decided to not say anything to him and started walking back home, not thinking much of it.

It had been a couple weeks since I last saw Taehyung. I thought about him occasionally but in some corner of my heart, I really wanted to see him and I don't know why.

In the meantime, Jungkook couldn't keep his hands off me. He always flirted with everyone but I saw him a lot more often after that day in the park. He'd come and hang around the cafe where I worked. Jimin would tag along with him since he wanted to get closer to Jennifer. It was nice having friends around but I couldn't stop thinking about what I heard Jungkook whisper under his breath the other day. Would he really like being my boyfriend?

"Sora, come on! You work like 24/7, I'm asking you to get one drink with us." Jungkook whined, tugging at my shirt while pinching my nose. 

"My boss doesn't like me. If he finds me hanging out with friends during work hours, I'm sure to get fired and I can't afford that." I said in the most serious tone I could. It was hard to make this kid understand anything. Once he wanted something, he'd get it no matter what.

He had made his way into the kitchen where I was washing the dishes despite me telling him that he wasn't allowed there. He had a pout on his face that slowly turned into a smirk indicating that he was about to pull some stupid stunt. 

Before I knew it, a pair of muscular arms had picked me up and carried me towards the main part of the cafe. There were no customers since it was still very early in the morning. I was hitting his arm the entire time but that had no effect on him. He was way too strong for someone with the face of a bunny. 

As we started to get closer to the counter, he suddenly dropped me. My back hit the floor as I gasped in pain.

Ugh, he's so dead today.

As I stood up ready to fight him, I saw his eyes very focused on something. He looked in shock, his mouth gaping and his eyes protruding out of his eye socket. He was Jungshook. I laughed as I cracked this joke inside my head before turning to see what he was looking at. 

OH, MY GOD. 

Jennifer and Jimin were aggressively making out on one of the seats. Jimin's hands were all over her body while they couldn't stop sucking each other's faces off.

Ugh, how will I ever get this sight out of my head? 

I suddenly heard Jungkook burst into laughter. He held onto his stomach while bending his knees and laughing his head off. I couldn't help but laugh with him. We had never seen this coming and it was more disgusting than either of us could have ever imagined. 

Jimin and Jennifer broke off their kiss at the sudden burst of laughter and stood up looking confused. Jimin quickly pecked her cheek and rushed out the door. Jennifer walked up to us and flicked both of our heads.

Ow. 

"I never thought you had that in you. So aggressive, woah." Jungkook spoke while tears of laughter escaped his eyes. He looked so adorable with his bunny teeth on full display and his eyes squinted, making him look like a baby. I got this sudden urge to pinch his cheeks but I let that thought slide. 

"Am I really that good looking?" Jungkook's voice derailed my train of thoughts. Why does this keep on happening with me? His smile had now turned into a smirk as he slowly started to make his way towards me. Jennifer had left the cafe, probably embarrassed by what had happened and I was left alone with him. 

"N-no. I need to get back to work." I pushed him away slightly to make my way past him only to be pulled into his embrace. His eyes were locked on me and his warm breath fanned my face. He started to lean in closer and I did the same. 

"Hi." A familiar voice startled both of us as we quickly pushed each other away. The voice was familiar because it was Taehyung's. He was alone. His hair color had changed, it was a lot darker now, almost black but not quite. He wore a bandana pulling his hair back and he had never looked better. I'm sure I stood and stared at him for a good five minutes before coming back to my senses. 

"Jungkook, is it okay if I see you later? I need to get some things done plus we're starting to get customers now." I spoke as I saw him hesitate but nod and walk out the door. 

"Hi, Taehyung. What would you like to order today?" I walked up to his seat and handed out the menu. 

"I just came to see you." He spoke in his deep voice that was enough to make my breath uneven. 

"Um, okay. Before anything, I just wanted you to know that Jungkook isn't my boyfriend, he tends to act like that with everyone. He's just a tease." I had been wanting to tell him this for so long and this was the worst time to say it. 

"Oh. So you guys weren't going to kiss when I walked in?" His tone was sharp. 

"Uh- No, we weren't." I spoke, hesitantly. 

I heard him sigh frustratingly. He looked annoyed. 

"Listen, I don't know what's going on but I've been thinking about you a lot. I don't understand this shit. All I know is that I want to be with you and it's annoying the heck out of me." He stood up while running his hand through his hair and coming really close to me. 

"Don't you have a girlfriend?" I asked. I didn't know why but I wanted to be with him too. Even though it was wrong, there was something pulling me towards him. 

"And I love her. That's why I don't understand this. You make me want to be close to you and I can't help but feel all these things for you." He started leaning closer to my face, his voice turned almost into a whisper. 

My heart was jumping out of my chest. Being this close to him was making my knees weak. I couldn't help but stare at his plump lips and imagine how good they'd feel against mine.

All of this was wrong, but it felt so right. 

His arms snaked around my waist as he pulled me close to him. I could feel his heart racing too. He leaned his face slowly towards mine until there was barely any space left between our lips. Our warm breath mixed and became one before he slowly placed his lips on mine, closing the gap. My heart raced as I kissed him back and our lips moved in perfect sync together. It was as if we were meant to be.

Only, we weren't. 

A/N: Oh, look who updated two days in a row! I feel really inspired to write right now but it won't be long before school work starts to take up all my time again. However, I will at least be updating once a week so stay tuned for that!
