A/N: I've been working on 'Introvert' so I'm probably gonna start updating this about three times or maybe twice a week. Enjoy the story for now!
Warning: a lot of tilting and twitching.

"Hyung?" Jungkook asked as he sat beside me on the couch. I turned to him, "Hmm?"
"I wanna meet Amber.." He paused, "I-I mean.. like.. again." I titled my head, "Pardon?"
"I mean like.. I wanna talk to her again." He said, looking straight ahead of him. I didn't respond and instead, I faced down. "Hmm, I smell jealousy." He smirked. I moved away and shot him a weird look, "Jungkook-ah!"
He chuckled and patted my back. Jimin walked passed by and Jungkook noticed him, "Oi, hyung!" He called. Jimin stopped walking and turned to face him, twitching his eyebrows. "Do you know where Yoongi is?" Jimin titled his head, "Eh?"
"I was planning on roaming around this place. I wanted to ask Yoongi if he's free to drive today." Jungkook said.
Jimin glared at him, "We have plans tonight. Can't you just walk?" He said before walking away. I snickered and tried my best to hold my laughter.
I wanted to ask Jungkook how he was but before I uttered a single word, he stood up and walked away, "Oi! Where are you heading too?" I asked.
He turned to me, "I'm gonna roam around. Wanna join me?" He asked and I nodded.

"Ahh, hyung! That house is nice!" Jungkook said, pointing at the white house that was ahead of him. "We'll have a nicer one." I said.
"Ahh! Ahh!" Jungkook said, excitingly tapping my shoulder, "We should greet our neighbors!" He suggested. I snickered, "What?"

"Don't people usually do that? Say "hello" to there neighbors after moving in?"
"Well, yeah."
"Then let's go!" Jungkook said, running off to the nearest house.
I followed him and he was constantly knocking on the wooden door. The door opened, revealing an old, aggressive man standing before him. "What do you want?!" He said, frustration in his voice.
Jungkook extend his hand, asking for a handshake, "Hello sir. My name is Jeon J-" Before he could finish his sentence, the door slammed in front of his face.
Jungkook pouted, "How rude!" He complained. "Well, maybe the next neighbor isn't rude?" I joked, trying to cheer him up.
"Okay.." He said. We walked off to the next house and knocked on the door. This time, I knocked on the door. I knocked twice, hoping that I won't disturb our neighbors.
The door opened, revealing an old woman that looked like she was in her 80's. "Hello, young man." She said.
"Hello, ma'am. My name is Taehyung, Kim and I'm your new neighbor." I said, extending my hand.
She didn't shake my hand instead, she walked off and grabbed a bucket of cookies. "Would you like some cookies, dear?"
"Thank you so much, but I am in no mood to eat right now." I said, trying my very best to be polite. The old lady shook her head, "Please, just take one or two. You can give some to your friend over there."
Jungkook just looked at me and approached the old lady, grabbing two cookies from the bucket. "Here." He said, giving me the other cookie.
The old lady smiled, "Please visit me again. It was nice to meet you, young man. Hello there, what is your name?" She said, turning to Jungkook.

"Hello ma'am. My name is Jeon Jungkook. Please call me Jungkook." He smiled. I tried to hold my laughter at his sentence. It was obvious he tried to be as polite as he can.
The old lady smiled, "I would like for you to visit me again. It was very nice knowing you two. I live alone in this house and it is nice to finally speak with someone for so many years. My husband passed away and my son lives with his wife and his children abroad. I haven't heard from him in years."
Jungkook's eyes widened, "Please, treat me as your son. It would be nice to have a grandmother like you taking care of me." He said.
The old lady chuckled, "I would love to, young man. But for now, I must take a rest. I am getting very sleepy. It was nice to meet you two again." She said, still keeping a smile on your face.
Jungkook and I waved goodbye to her as we walked off. Before the lady closed the door, Jungkook happily shouted "Bye!" while we were heading to the next house.
"Aw, hyung! We can get free cookies there everyday! But I feel so bad! She's so lonely and she needs someone to talk to. I think I made the right choice." He grinned and I just chuckled. He was right though. He needed someone to remove his immaturity.
"Hey, I heard that!" He said and I didn't even notice I said that out loud. I just laughed it off, walking to the final house that we would visit today.
I knocked on the door twice and Jungkook was still grinning, hoping he'd get more cookies.
No respond. I knocked on the door again.
Still no respond. I knocked on the door for the final time. As expected, no respond. Jungkook shrugged and we walked off. Before we took another step, we heard the door open.
"Hello?" A familiar voice spoke.
I turned around and froze at the person who was right in front of me.
