You stir awake. As your grogginess begins to wear off you feel a breath blowing gently against the top of your head. Trying to sit up you find that a strong arm wrapped around your waist that doesn't allow it.
A tiny gasp escapes your lips as the realisation hits you.
You try to wiggle free of Jungkook's hold when he groans in his sleep pulling you closer to his chest. You squeeze your eyes shut at the sudden moment feeling him nuzzle against your neck.
Some insignificant part of you wants to pull away immediately, but your drumming heart drowns that small voice. You lay as still as a statue against the calm movement of his chest that rises and falls.
"Jungkook?" The tentative whisper is barely audible even to you.
Nothing happens. You peep down at his arm, that is secured tightly around you, looking for a way to get out. Gently, you wrap your hand around his wrist and try to pull it away but he pulls you back against him.
"Just a little while longer.. please" His morning voice mutters into your ear. Other than the heaviness of sleep there's something else about his voice that puts you off. It's clear as if he were awake and aware of the situation.
Stirring in his embrace you turn around to face him, placing your palms against his chest as his eyes slowing flutter open. They are clear when they meet yours. As you look into them you want nothing more than to stay there in his tight embrace. Looking up at him you gulp down the temptation to touch his face... to run your hands through his disheveled hair... to kiss his soft lips... You can feel his racing heart, mimicking the state of your very own, against your palm.

You move to look down at your hands a few strands of your hair fall onto your face, blocking your vision momentarily. He draws a line along your cheek with his index finger, gathering the strands and pushing them behind your ear. Gently cupping your cheek he runs his thumb back and forth over it as if wiping away an imaginary substance.
"Y/N!!" The door bursts open even before you can react to the voice calling out for you. "Oh my goodness- I'm so sorry. I didn't see anything!" the door shut as soon as it had opened.
"Seriously! Again?" Jungkook mumbles before trying to suffocate himself with a pillow.
You spare him one look before sprinting out of the room.
"Miri! Wait up!" You chase after the girl who's half-walking half-running away from the room. You catch up to her and trap her in a tight back hug nearly knocking the air out of her lungs. It seems to work because she stops, her body easing. "I haven't seen you in sooooooooo long Miri-yah!"
"I missed you so much! When I heard you were in town I came running to see you.. and.. I'm so sorry for walking in on.." She talks really fast until the last few words.
"Oh just shut up!" You squeeze her tighter.
"Um... Y/N... I can't.. breathe.."
"Oh sorry." You release her from your bone-crunching embrace.
She draws in a long breath the minute you let go. "I never understood how you were this strong yet look like that." She points at your thin 5 foot 3-inch tall form.
"You should tell that to Granny, she thinks I'm weak." You say rolling your eyes. But Miri is no longer listening to you, she's looking over your shoulder mouth gaping open and eyes wide.

You turn around to see Jungkook emerging from your room, hair tousled and nervously rubbing the back of his neck. He gives you the smallest, laziest smile before looking at the girl beside you questionable.
Get a grip on yourself Y/N!!
"Wooow," Miri says a little loudly.
"Um... Jungkook this is my friend Miri. And Miri this is Jungkook."
You nudge your friend who's still shamelessly gawking at the man who bows politely in greeting.
"Wow, You're gorgeous!"
You grimace in embarrassment pursing your lips together. "Stop talking Miri."
"What will all this noise?" You near your grandma's footsteps. "I knew it had to be this girl causing the racket." She says having noticed the new addition to the group. Miri only grins, finally breaking out of her trance, and approaches the elder lady with a warm hug. Even though she looks uncomfortable you know all too well just how much your grandma loves Miri. As much is evident in the manner she didn't make any attempts to push the girls clinging onto her away.
"Where did you go last night, Y/N? I eventually fell asleep waiting for you."
Jungkook's staring intently at the floor as if trying to count the number of the specks of dust. Your grandma's eyes are urging you to answer when Miri interrupts.
"Seriously Granny? Aren't you going to feed me anything? I'm starving."
There's a great topic to distract your Grandma; hospitality and feeding people till they blow up. She looks between you and the man in the room, who might as well be a statue, but says no more.
"Come on then. Help me make breakfast." She says to Miri who obliges happily.
Just before she leaves the room your best friend turns to wink at you. You mouth a "Thank you" earning a toothy grin.
Ah... I've missed her so much.
You hear Jungkook let out a loud sigh at the last sight of their retreating backs.

Poor Jungkook. Every time he gets the chance to be alone with Y/N one of her friends walks in on them. First Sunghyun and now Miri. Oops.. =D

She thought that by getting her revenge for her past life, she would be happy in this life. However, she never would have thought that danger would chance upon her time and time again. The hatred from her clan and whether their bloodline would continue to exist, lay solely on her shoulders. Luckily, on this thorny path, someone had always been protecting her. "Third Prince, have you ever regretted being with me?" That person laughed lightly and peered at her with a loving yet weary look, "As long as I am together with you, I have no regrets."
