Taehyung got the ball, and the first basket was scored in an instant , the crowd cheered up as the basketball ace scored another and then another one as the first half of the game seemed to fly by.
It was 3-0 , jungkook was having a hard time to keep up with Taehyung..
I could tell that he was trying his best , but Taehyung, he was fast and sharp! Maybe this really is his game..
As taehyung continued to score , he gave jungkook a victorious smile , telling him that he was going to be crashed at the game , but just then the tables turned ..
Jungkook quickly snatched the ball from Taehyung and boom - SCORE! ..
What?But how? Within just a second..
Since he had the ball now it was easy for him to score , he scored 3 more ..
By this time the game had hit half time , the score was tight and everyone, including the crowd remained tensed and curious..
The score was 3-4 now , jungkook was leading...
The whistle of the referee blew again as The next half started passing just as fast as the first half , by the end of it both of them were tying now...
The score was 7-7
"Time out!" yelled the coach as both of them made their way towards the side benches, i saw Taehyung discussing something with Namjoon sunbae while Jungkook discussed something with Jimin ..
The whistle blew again and the game continued, this time Taehyung had the ball and it took him no more than 4 seconds to score one and then another just in a blink of an eye.. he was leading now ....
The score was 9-7 now
The crowd was quiet, at first they all knew Taehyung would win but jungkook was giving him a hard time...
Half of them were there for jungkook, there was a cheerleading team for him too , And half were on Taehyung's side..
"....Ten, nine, eight, seven..." jungkook strip the ball from Taehyung at half court. The only thing left to do was watch jungkook score a jump shot to win, The court was silent , everyone was quiet , their eyes were fixated on Jungkook , whether or not he would be able to score 3 more in this small time left , Seven , Six, five, four, three, two, one, buzz."

The score was 9-8....
The hall errupted with hoots, cheers and claps , everybody was talking about how amazing the match was and how jungkook gave Taehyung a hard time..
"Y/N , i WON!" Taehyung hugged me out of nowhere...
"Yes i saw." I smiled wrapping my arms around him.. "you did great."
"Ofcourse he had to win." Came running Namjoon sunbae as we broke our hug..
"Y/n did you see his face?"taehyung asked
"Whose?"
"Jungkook's" he answered and continued "he was so confident about winning and was all bragging , look at him now." Taehyung laughed as I spotted jungkook looking at us from a far corner...
"Ofcourse you had to loose." Spoke jimin
"Don't put salt on my wounds."
"No but really.."
"Didn't you see , i gave him a tough time , he could have win without letting me score any considering how he is the second best player in the 'entire university'." I emphasised on the last sentence by making inverted commas from my fingers in the air ..
"Yeah , you might be right there , anyways lets go ."
"You go , i ll catch up to you shortly." I told him as he walked away..
From the corner of my eye i saw Taehyung hugging y/n , as a strange fire ignited within my heart..
I clenched my teeth as i looked at them , y/n caught me looking at them but i didn't look away..
"Look at her , isn't it the same girl ,the one whose pictures were leaked".
"Yeah , those changing room ones right, the one in which she was getting intimate with a shirtless guy."
"I didnt know she was this hot."
"No wonder that guy got attracted to.."
"I wonder who he was."
"She has a great body though."
"Yeah i like her a**."
"I would love to take her home one day."
"Maybe we should talk to her , she might be one of those types of girls you know."
A weird vulgar conversation about y/n made its way to my ears , my eyes shot up towards the source of voice , there were two guys standing at a distance behind her and talking about her ..
One of them even took out his phone and took her pictures from behind..
Some of you never learn, thats is why i was asking her not to wear this , she is getting too much attention..

Quietly i made my way towards those guys..
"Oh hi Sup jungkook?"
"What were you doing?"
"Ah ! You know ." They both looked at each other before one of them spoke "that Girl." He pointed towards y/n and continued "she is pretty hot and has a great body , so we were wondering if we could—." Before he could complete his sentence , i snatched his phone , the gallery was already open so i deleted almost like 10 pictures of y/n that they had clicked there and then , handed the phone back to him and then spoke "Leave."
"Huh? Why would you delete those ?" The other one spoke
"Leave before i go to the president and complain about you two."
"Geez , whats your problem, what are you getting so mad about?"
"Go away or do you want me to take out those eyes of yours." I shot them a death glare as they made their way out ...
I looked back at y/n and her outfit ..
Me:How can that Kim Namjoon approve of such costume...
Brain : who knows he secretly might be a pervert..
Me : lol i dont think he is that type of a guy though..
I saw taehyung and Namjoon leaving y/n's side and i was quick to approach her...
"I told you not to wear it." I heard a familiar voice ..
"You again?"
"Yes ! Me again."
"Too bad you lost!"
"Y/n , i am not here to discuss the match."
"I dont want to discuss anything with you ."
"Go and change this costume."
"Why? Why do you want me to change ? , also if you are here to lower my confidence then let me tell you that Taehyung complimented me and even Namjoon - sunbae did." I stopped as I blushed recalling the moment earlier and continued "so i am feeling as confident as ever." With that i started to walk away but just then i felt someone pinching the back strap of my top and pulling me back towards themselves..
"What are you doing jungkook?" I was surprised by his act , his touch made me feel ticklish on my back and i couldn't stop the blush that was already forming on my cheek.
"Nothing , just asking you nicely to change."
"I won't, leave me."
"Do you know what all of them are saying about you?" He raised his eyebrows
"Look behind you." He said as i turned around and saw plenty of guys staring at me and whispering to each other..
"But why?"
"Its the same girl , right." I heard one of them say..
"The one whose pictures were leaked."
Jungkook stood in front of me with his back towards me and glared towards them which made them shut..
Why? Why are you doing this for me ?
"Why? Why are you doing this for me ?" I asked
"I didn't do anything for you!"
"Just now i saw you."
"I didn't do anything , so now go and change ."
"Why? Its all because of you! They are talking like that about me because of those pictures that you leaked jungkook." I could feel a knot forming in my throat..
"I—."
"Now i cant even roam around wearing what i like because of a constant fear of people talking like that about me , isn't this all because of you."
"Y/n —."
"They all probably think that i am that kind of a girl." I wiped the single tear that had fallen from my eye..
"Y/n whats going on?" Came running taehyung who had changed back his clothes "what are you doing here?" He glared at jungkook.
"Why is she crying?" He started to wipe my tears "whats wrong y/n ? Did he say something?"
"Lets go from here taehyung." I said
"Hey you! Mind your own business! Whats your problem? Why do you always hurt her?haven't you had enough? You already lost the match , now don't embarrass yourself even more.."
"I didn't do anything? Stop acting all cool just because you won by a single digit.You and i we both know that i gave you a tough time so stop."
"I dont care what you think of me but if you hurt y/n." Taehyung wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me close "i wont leave you."
I noticed his arm around her waist which just made my anger even worst..
"HEY!" I grabbed his collar
"Stop it Jungkook!!" Y/n came in between "also Taehyung, its nothing big so lets just go!" She held his arm and left without saying another word..
