He hated Jungkook.

I could just tell from the way he frowned to the bitterness that flashed in his eyes.
I swallowed hard.

I wanted to stay, wanted to leave, wanted to pull Jungkook out and tell him to not come back to my workplace and to just stick to the plan...

Yet a part of me wanted to hurt Namjoon just as much as he hurt me.
I fought the guilt and bitterness that festered in my soul.

He didn't know, didn't deserve to be treated harshly.
It was my own fault for thinking he felt the same way and waited on him to make the first move instead of just telling him how I truly felt.

I honestly didn't know what I wanted.

"I'll just wait outside-"

I managed to say but Jungkoom turned and looked at me with eyes that I couldn't discern.

"I'd liked you to stay, Bee."

Jungkook's deep and scruffy voice asked.

It was so much deeper than Namjoon's I realized.
Namjoon still had a soft yet confident voice.

Jungkook's voice boomed with authority and roughness.

I took in his plea, and nodded slowly in agreement.

As I looked over to Namjoon, his eyes showed confusion and... frustration?

Did I really cause that?

I stood back away from them both towards the door of the office.

Jungkook turned his attention back to Namjoon, and he cleared his throat.

"I have a question to ask you, Kim."

Namjoon seemed to be battling something inside.
He tried not to glare at Jungkook as he leaned against the front of his desk.

"Go on, Jeon."

I felt sick to my stomach.

Jungkook's voice radiated through the room without effort and even made my chest vibrate with anxiety.

"Would you like it if your fiance worked for me as my personal assistant?"

Namjoon's eyebrows rose in shock of his question.

Honestly, I was shocked too.
The way he phrased it made it sound horrible and as if Eugene had been cheating on Namjoon with Jungkook.

Where was this coming from?

"You disgusting, son of a bi-"

Jungkook instantly held his hands up in surrender.

"It was more of a hypothetical question, I should have mentioned. I'm in no way asking such a thing."

"Then what the hell are you asking?!"

Sighing, Jungkook rubbed the back of his neck.

"You heard that I just recently got married."

I froze.

Oh god.

Here it was.

"Yes, actually."

Namjoon chuckled and stood to his full height, matching with jungkook's eye level.

"I feel bad for the woman desperate enough to agree
to marry such an asshole."

"Namjoon!"

I gasped, not used to him saying such things!
What the hell was getting into him!?

Did he hate Jungkook that much that he would forget that it was totally unprofessional!?
