《Mr. Boss | ✓》XI

Advertisement

Having washed out most of the egg from his hair, Jungkook now sits in his studio. Turns out getting the shells off wasn't as easy as he'd thought. He had grown so familiar to the pungent smell that he could still feel it cling onto him.

Before him, on his computer screen is a paused video he's supposed to be editing. But there's something that's distracting him...

His mind keeps going back to you. He knows he should be mad at you for making him wear his lunch.. but he's not. He's confused by the odd emotions twisting within him. When he had pushed you into the pool he'd done it for a good laugh but instead, he had found himself worrying for you. Watching as you trembled hugging your body he felt the guilt form a lump in his throat he couldn't swallow down.

He pushes his hair back in frustration, staring up at the ceiling. The memory of the triumphant smile he'd seen on your face moments before you walked out the cafeteria came to him. He was surprised to find his own lips curve at the memory but was quick to shake it off. Somehow, annoying you wasn't as fun as it used to be.

He suddenly felt tired and hungry.. mostly hungry.

I need to get her back for all those insults, he thinks to himself. Wait...What am I doing thinking about her?? What's wrong with me?... I need food!

Pushing his chair back he walks into the living room to find his hyungs having dinner like any other day.

At his arrive they all stop what they had been doing to look up at him. Namjoon and Jin exchange a look, Jimin nudges Taehyung who's on his phone, Yoongi blinks at Jungkook but it's Hoseok who speaks up.

"Jungkook-ah, did you want something?" Jungkook instantly notices his tentative yet gentle tone.

"Food.." he replies rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.

It's like an eruption. They all begin to speak at once.

"Here, we have fried chicken," says Jin shoving the box of crispy fried chicken to him.

"No! Have some Kimbap!!" Taehyung points at another box.

"There's Jajangmyeon too!" Jimin adds.

"Let him sit first!" Yoongi says which silences all the fuss.

As he sits down and serves himself some food, he could feel six pairs of eyes on him.

"Whowt?" Jungkook says his mouth full with noodles.

"Nothing." Six voices sing in unison.

Jin sniffs the air around him, his face twisting as he pretends to sense some unpleasant smell. "What's that smell?"

"Jungkook's lunch." Jimin sniggers.

"So Jungkook, how's your new manager?" RM asks in a matter-of-fact voice, yet his lips curve ever so slightly.

Jungkook chokes on his food and has to have Jimin pat him on the back while he chugs water.

Jungkook turns to Jimin glaring, "YOU TOLD THEM?"

"I'm sorry, it was just too good not to share."

"She really smashed a raw egg on your head, then?" Taehyung asks laughing, while the others join in, their pretense of remaining calm slipping away.

"Waaa... I really must meet her." Jin added.

"Wow... That must be a first for you," Hoseok says. "A girl standing up to Jeon Jungkook. She must be really something special."

"There's nothing special about her!" Jungkook grits his teeth.

"I think she's quite nice actually," Jimin says earning a curious glance from everyone.

"Oh yeah, he thinks more of her than being just nice." Taehyung mutters as Jimin "accidentally" pushes a bowl of hot soup past the edge of the table and onto Teahyung's lap. A loud scream splits through the awkward silence of the room.
