Before Jungkook can move she ducks down to search for her pen. When she gets up, her head hits the table corner. She closes her eyes shut, waiting for the pain to come, but it never does.

Jungkook has put his hand between the  surfaces i.e. the table and her head. She looks at him incredulously as he rubs the back of his hand.

of course his knuckles hurt.

She immediately takes his hand. Pained.

Jungkook's eyes go wide. Heartbeats escalating like an accelerating car, warmth rising to his face and neck and everywhere else. He keeps looking at her worried face.

"You didn't have to. . " Juhi says .

"It doesn't hurt at all. . ." He says and Juhi realizes she's been holding his hand for a really long time. She wants to pull away immediately but he's hurt so she guides his hand to the table gently and puts it there like it's something so fragile.

"Thank you" She says and Jungkook notices how this is the longest she has held eye contact.

He notices how her eyes were so unguarded today. He could almost notice her paying attention to him.

He looks away. His hand flies to his face. 

This is too much.

 He thinks. 

He's embarrassed.
