Author's Note: We made it! I was watching one of my soap opera couples and had to add one of the cute lines she said to her significant other on the show. It fits nicely. Now for the next challenge...writing Jennie and Jungkook as a couple!

Un-thinkable (I'm Ready) by Alicia Keys always makes me think about Jennie and Jungkook. It's so cute. I like how to lyrics change from "I think I deserve it." to "I know I deserve it.". And it reminds me of Jungkook telling Jennie that she deserves all the love she's getting.

Jungkook was grinning ear to ear when watching Jennie's recent tweet with her manager's daughter. It was pleasing to see her smile but also seeing her face made him think back to that day he told her how he felt.

He felt vulnerable that day, letting all his defenses down as he poured his heart out to her. After standing by, admiring her, he had finally said everything he wanted to tell her. She was the one he wanted to be with and he felt assured that this was the woman he wanted to be in a relationship with.

The Golden Maknae couldn't help but think of how nervous he was before knocking on her door. How sick to his stomach he was as he thought about her feelings and if he was prepared to face the consequences if his confession went south.

Jungkook thought about the conversation he had with Namjoon after letting him know that he finally told her how he felt. Namjoon was proud that he confessed and liked the fact that he was still considerate of her feelings, understanding that he told her on short notice and he would still be friends if she didn't return his feelings. But Namjoon had a strong feeling that she would, so Jungkook did not need to worry.

"Why are you so worried?" Yoongi grumbled from his nap on the couch.

Jungkook turned to him. "What do you mean, hyung?"

"Jeez, stop whining. I'm pretty sure she feels the same. Just relax and wait for her to come back. You kids overthink things too much. It's pretty damn obvious to me that she likes you, anyway."

"I-I'll wait for her to confirm it when she comes back." Jungkook looked down shyly.

Every time he heard his hyungs say that she liked him too, it had given him a lot of butterflies in his stomach.

Yes or No, Jennie? Only time will tell...

The next day, after her photo shoot and interview with Billboard, Jennie felt elated about when it would be released to the public. She decided to go get lunch after the long morning. While walking through the streets of LA alone, she couldn't help but notice two extremely familiar figures and decided to follow them to get a closer look.

Was it who she thought it was?

As soon as she heard one of their voices, it confirmed everything.

"No friggin' way. You gotta be kidding me. I can't believe this. Tony? Nate?" she called out.

The two men turned around and widened their eyes. "Jennie!?" Nate happily yelled.

"Jen!" Tony beamed.

"Yooooooo!" she ran over and hugged them. "It's been forever! I missed you guys!"

"We missed you, too! What brings you back to LA? I thought you were in Seoul." Tony asked.

"I had a few interviews. Gosh, how have you two been!? We need to hang out, like right now! I'm on my way to eat, are you doing anything?"

"Actually we were on our way to grab something to eat, too. Let's go, we'll show you this nice spot that has some good ass food." Nate suggested.
