No Strings Attached (Jungkook x OC)

Part 5: Letting Go

He was just too blind.. and stupid.

Present Time

(Jungkook's POV)

I reached out and grabbed another photo from the clip. It was a picture of me, standing in front of the pier in the city of Seoul. I was looking straight ahead at the oceans, completely oblivient of Seoyeon who was taking a picture of me.

I chuckled to myself. She was really a cute one. How did I not realize that I fell in love with her? Was I that blind to think that I was still in love with Haeun?

I placed the picture back onto its clip, right beside Seoyeon's picture of her sleeping.

"I was I could go back in time and fix everything."

Past - A year ago... (11 months into the fake relationship)

(Seoyeon's POV)

I chased him down the streets of Seoul, his camera in hand. It was already the end of November, and it was already starting to snow. I managed to sneak into his house and wake him up as soon as I saw the first snowflake fall from the sky.

The two of us knew that we couldn't just waste the first day of Winter. We headed to Seoul and started to walk around the busy streets and take some pictures.

To add some fun into this day, I stole his camera and started to take different pictures of him whenever I could. Whether he liked it or not.

"You're going to take up all the space in the memory card!" He yelled as he ran away from me.

I giggled, holding onto the camera with my dear life and continued to run after him. He was like a cheetah, so fast that I couldn't keep up with his pace. "You can delete them right after! Just the ugly ones!"

"You're not good at taking pictures!" He exclaimed, a low chuckle escaping his lips.

We bumped into a few people on the sidewalk but we managed to stop in front of the pier. The waters weren't frozen just yet, since it was still the first day of Winter. But the breeze coming from the oceans were chilly and cold as ever.

I smiled, stopping a few metres before him. He breathed heavily, placing his arms onto the platform as he looked far off into the sea. I brought the camera up to my eye and quickly took a picture.

Bringing the camera down, our eyes met and I felt my heart stop. His stare was intense, and I couldn't help myself but look away just in time.

I cleared my throat, "uh.. take a look at the pictures I took."

I handed him his camera, avoiding eye contact. I felt his fingers under my chin as he forced me to look at him. I stared at him as he smiled beautifully. My knees started to go weak at how perfect he looked in my own eyes.

He let go of my chin and looked down at his camera, taking a look at my pictures. He nodded his head, looking amused and impressed. Looking up at me, he gave me a two thumbs up.

I felt his arms wrap around my waist, pulling me into a back hug. I closed my eyes, savoring the feeling of him so close to me. I was definitely going to miss this, especially him.

I was going to miss him when I let go of him.

And I started to frown. This didn't really feel as fake anymore. This fake relationship felt real to me, and that was starting to frighten me to death. Was this still all pretend?

"What's wrong?" He asked, and I looked at him, shaking me head.

"It's nothing, just thinking." I whispered, smiling. I placed my hands on top of his. "Mind sending me those pictures I took of you?"
