Chapter 41

With one of his hands in my hair and the other holding me closely, I felt extra drowsy. I don't think I realized when I dozed off. 

Falling down from the couch at 10am in the morning, stuck inside the blanket, was what woke me up. Jungkook was sprawled all over, one of his legs going over the couch. He was probably uncomfortable the entire night because I could see the imprint of his jacket's zipper on his cheek. He was still sound asleep though, his mouth slightly parted and light snores could be heard.. He looked like a baby.. I almost kissed his cheek but then I thought he might wake up.. I should probably let him sleep.. he took care of me the entire day yesterday..

I put the blanket over him and headed straight to the washroom to brush my teeth. 

As it's really hard to go about my day without coffee, I made myself some coffee. Jungkook was still asleep. Even the sound of utensils in the kitchen, which was right in front of the living room where he was sleeping, didn't bother him. Only once, when I dropped the mug (which thankfully, didn't break), he moved a little. But then he just shifted positions and went to sleep on his stomach.

I had just started clearing the mess we had created last night when Jungkook scared the living daylights out of me;

"I'll fight you if I have to" he mumbled in his sleep. 

I just chuckled and continued with my work but then he started taking again;

 "stay away from her" ooh, who is he talking about?

"ew no, I don't wanna kiss you" I almost laughed loudly, who was he being forced to kiss?

"leave y/n alone or I swear to god I'll-" but I didn't get to hear what he'd do to the person who wasn't leaving me alone because it looked like he had balled his fists, but being on the edge of the couch, he fell down with a bam!

"Wh- y/n? Oh my god, you're okay???!!"

"Good morning Jungkookie" I grinned, "of course I'm okay.. what happened to me?"

"Tae- he-" he looked very confused but then he looked around, "we're not- wait-" and then as if realization hit him, "OHHHHHHHH- it was a dream...."

"Well? Did someone kidnap me in your dream? Were you saving me from monsters?" I asked, laughing at his very rattled expressions.

"It was worse than monsters" he said, "but I'm glad you're okay" he smiled and his hand reached out to cup my cheek, "and you're with me."

And just like that, within nanoseconds, I went from laughing at him to trying to hide the blush on my cheeks because the way his eyes stared so intently into my soul.. I felt like I'd combust..

I decided I did not want to hear his dream because if him cupping my cheeks had the butterflies in my stomach going crazy, I did not want to know how it'd feel if he told me how he saved me as if I were the damsel in distress..

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm perfectly capable of defending myself.. but it's just something that the old school, Disney- hardwired brain of mine has.. the romanticism associated with being saved by my prince charming.. As icky as that sounds, I couldn't help but blush further over the idea. 

For some reason, whenever I thought of my Prince Charming, I'd always be met with a faceless man. But a few days ago, I dreamt about Kim Taehyung riding a horse on the surface of water. And then he stopped by the sea shore, got off his horse and then kissed my hand because I had suddenly appeared there. Maybe it had something to do with my belief that his face is that like the sculptures of Greek Gods.. He's truly perfect.. But the dream left me feeling very fluttery.. So much so, that I almost dreaded going to the French class with him, because he kept flashing beautiful smiles at me. But then the professor scolded him for asking a senseless doubt and the  flipping feeling in my stomach vanished while I laughed with the entire class.

And now, looking at Jungkook, I couldn't help but imagine how perfect his face too would be as my Prince Charming. But I couldn't get rid of the idea of Kim Taehyung either.. So I just mentally made my peace with two faces instead of a faceless man.

"Are you alright? Do you have a fever?" Jungkook touched my forehead, "your cheeks are warm."

"I'm okay" I took his hand away from my face, "do you want me to make you coffee?"

"Nah, I don't wanna trouble you- I didn't even realize when I slept- I'm sorry.. it must've been uncomfortable-"

"Hush" I said, "it must've been uncomfortable for you.. look at this" I touched the zipper imprint on his cheek, "sometimes you take unnecessary care of me.. and stop being so formal with me kookie.. you're not causing any trouble"

"Well, in that case- GO GET ME COFFE, YOU IDIOT"

"You fucker-" I threw an empty packet of chips at him and he laughed, "I'll get you a spare toothbrush, go wash your face too" I got up and threw the clutter in the dustbin.

As I handed him the toothbrush, I told him, "I really had a good time yesterday.. thank you-"

"You asked ME not to be formal and look at you" he shook his head in disapproval and then chortled, "I did too y/n-ie.. the best part is, you weren't even scary last night.. "

"When am I ever scary..."

"Always?"

I raised my eyebrows and he just grinned and hugged me, "be right back" he kissed my forehead.

"Ew why would you kiss me without even brushing your teeth you disgusting asshole-" but he just shut the door on my face and laughed loudly.

Just then, my phone's screen lit up;

Taehyung: be there in 30 ;) can't wait!!

Oh fuck.. I had forgotten that I had called Taehyung to show him the apartment... I HAD to get Jungkook out of the house within 30 minutes.. he would surely freak out if he were to see Taehyung here.. They'd fight no matter where they are. Of course I still had to tell Jungkook that Taehyung was planning to take the other room but not today...

Me: YAY!!
