《The Other Man | Jungkook X Reader》13: Promise.
Advertisement
It was a peaceful, uninterrupted sleep. We were so deep in own dreamland in each other's arms that even the infuriating sound of my alarm couldn't separate our bodies clinging onto each other. But someone had to wake up eventually. That person unfortunately had to be me. And me being me? I panicked. It was 11:52am.
We missed school.
Unable to move even an inch because of the huge koala hugging me, still sleeping, I shook him all my strength but it made no impact on the muscle man. Or can I say? An opposite impact. Instead of leaving me or waking up, he tightly pulled me in, snuggling my tiny little body.
How I wish I could have this every morning.
I decided to stay like that since Jungkook was pretty tired after yesterday. But what did he mean when he said 'I know princess?' What exactly does he know? And how? Just like always, he had left me with unsolved questions. The mystery of this young man gets deeper everytime I try to get to know him. What is he trying to hide?
My thoughts were interrupted when my phone started buzzing like crazy. It was Taehyung. Shit.
Taehyung:
"Why aren't you in school?"
"Are you sick? Pick up my call"
"I'll stop by after school y/n, we need to talk."
I sigh.
Shit. Shitshitshit.
He CAN'T come over. He cannot see Jungkook at my place.
I quickly text him, the sound making Jungkook move a little, the nervousness starts building up in me. What am I doing..
Y/n:
"Let's meet at the park nearby. Needed a break since I was too tired."
Taehyung:
"Do you need any meds?"
Y/n:
"aani! Focus on classes. Stop texting. See you T"
My eyes revert to Jungkook's sleeping figure. His pout and snores clearly mark how deep he is in his slumbers. I'll make it quick kook..

With that I grab my wallet and leave the house with Jungkook soundly sleeping in my bedroom. I admired the beautiful clear sky, perfect for going on a hike, while walking to the park. In no time did I reach the place filled with the giggles of kids and their parents worriedly running behind them. A small chuckle escapes my mouth looking at how adorable small things can be.
Flashback:
"Y/n! Baby don't run like that! You'll fall and get hurt" "omma catch me if you can!!" The sun was at dawn, the park empty with swings and slides waiting for someone to ride it. It was just y/n, her mother and the birds chirping on their way home in the orange-pink coloured sky. Everything about it was beautiful. "Aah!! Ommaa-" "aish! I told you to be careful!!" Y/n tripped her leg over a small stone, making her land on her knees, scraping a small part of her legs. "Baby, omma wants you to be strong okay? Even when I'm not around. Promise me." and then the baby little finger met her mother's.
"-you zoned out again?" A voice interrupted my small reunion with my mother. "Ah Tae! N-no.. have I been waiting you for long?", he shook his head in response, taking me to a bench nearby, away from the kids jumping around.
Our hands were brushing against each other's, causing a light spark in my heart. Aah.. why does this happen. "Y/n, about yesterday..", I bent my head, facing the ground, too shy to think about it even amongst the other series of traumatic incident that happened after. "Where were you? I couldn't find you after you left from the r-room.." I looked at Taehyung and gave him a gentle smile. "Nothing, I just left with Hyunjin, I was too tired." He looked at me, his eyes widened. His hands slowly met mine, slowly intertwining inbetween his warm veiny ones, "are you.. lying to me?", he said. I immediately looked at him tilting my head in confusion. Does he know what happened?

"Why didn't you tell me y/n?"
At this moment, I felt my world crashing. I couldn't assemble words to respond to him. "I could've dropped you at your place. It would've been so unsafe to travel almost-drunk!!" He whined. I let out a sigh of relief and chuckled at his adorable behaviour. I place my other hand on top of our attached ones and gently squeeze it showing him a sweet, reassuring smile. "I'm not the same 12year old anymore TaeTae"
I giggled while watching his eyes widened. "It's been a while since you called me that, Bubu!!" "-yahh!! I told you to stop calling me that!! It's so cringeyyyy Tae!!" I playfully hit his shoulder earning a big boxy smile of his.

War of Seasons
Dorothea Atlin is the young, apathetic leader of the neutral territory of Sirpo, a chilly land hovering above the continuously warring factions of Sacer and Ghuria, whose devastating magics have ravaged their people and lands time and time again. Following a shocking attack and a cruel deception, Dorothea grows her conscience and takes up arms, using her self-destructive ability to manipulate the flow of time to ensure Sacer’s victory. Her growing understanding of war and the two factions is guided by Iree Nobelis, the determined and enthralling commander of Sacer’s forces, Ariana Kingfisher, a steely swordswoman of mixed Ghurian and Sacerian descent, and Rhys Tamlin, a kind but haunted soldier who goes to challenge Dorothea’s self-imposed celibacy and join her on a mutual journey of healing from the tragic legacies of the Atlin family and wars between the nations. Meanwhile, Dorothea’s only friend and deserter from the Sacerian military, Shark Olyen, returns to their homeland to face the family that disowned them and finds more than they bargained for in meeting Cerid Creed, a noble whose duty to his people clashes with his desires in romance and in life, much like Shark’s did long before. As their developing or preexisting loves and differing convictions on how to achieve peace create rifts between these major players, Dorothea experiences a personal revolution that leads her to fight for what she believes is right, no matter the cost. A slow-burn story that takes time setting up the psychology and motivations of characters for explosive payoff later down the line.
