Empty (Punch sequel)

Part 5

"Then are we good?" I asked, holding my hands to him. He wasn't that bad to be around with.

Bambam took my hand and gave it a shake "Of course." Letting go of my hand, he raised an eyebrow at me. "Hey, your boyfriend is kind of cool though. No wonder I got rejected."

Jimin wasn't my boyfriend, but I couldn't say anything but apologize again, feeling bad. "I'm sorry."

Bambam laughed nervously, but his laughter was cut when a bag slapped over the desk beside Bambam. The both of us looked at Jungkook, who took his seat without even greeting us.

"What's with being noisy in the morning?" Bambam snapped at him and Jungkook gave him an empty look.

"I see that you are making friends." His eyes shifted from his friend to me and I felt chills creeping down my arms. That look made me freeze in my place and made my heart beat increase.

Those eyes felt so familiar to me.

Why did Jungkook always seemed like someone I had always known? Someone, I needed to know.

"You don't have to be jealous, Jungkook." Bambam said, nudging Jungkook. "I'm still your friend."

Jungkook rolled his eyes and I couldn't help but chuckle. Bambam stood and wrapped his arm around my shoulder, taking me by surprise. He put a hand over his chest as he said, "Even though she has a boyfriend, she is still my beautiful girl."

"Who are you calling your beautiful girl?" I snapped, removing his arm from around me. He chuckled and took steps backward as I tried to hit his arms.

Strangely, I found myself comfortable around him. He was a funny guy with high spirit and a friendly aura, it wasn't hard to talk to him. Plus, he was a friend with Jungkook.

"Okay, okay. I'm sorry." He said, laughing and I chuckled too.

"Bambam..." Jina called and Bambam smiled, last time at me before approaching her. I caught Jina's hard look at me and then my suspicion had been confirmed.

I glanced back at where Jungkook was sitting, only not to find him there anymore. I jogged toward the door to behold the sight of him taking a turn to one of the corridors and I felt disappointed that he just left like this.

Strangely, I found my legs work before my mind as I ran after him. Something about him attract me like a magnet. He had a mysterious aura, he smiled, but a sad one. His eyes kind of dark and sad whenever they looked at me.

He seemed to always have uneasy eyes around me. Does he hate me? I wondered, but at the same time, I didn't feel that he hated me.

I followed him. There were still a few minutes till the start of the class and I couldn't stop my curiosity about him. Had I always been this curious person?

He walked to the library and I was on his heels. I was surprised actually, the library was one of my favorite places. I loved books so much and Jimin used to bring me books when I was in the hospital. And even I had a small shelf in my new room.

Jungkook greeted the librarian and walked between the shelves. Without greeting the librarian, I made my way behind him afraid that I would lose the sight of him.

Was Jungkook a good student along with a good boxer? Could he get any more perfect? I thought to myself, slapping myself inwardly. Now, I looked like some sasaeng fans following their idol.

Drowning in my thoughts, I didn't notice that Jungkook was no longer in front of me. He disappeared in the thin air. I jogged and looked in the alley between the bookshelves, but he was nowhere to be found.

Where the hell did he go? I thought as I turned to leave. A gasp skipped my mouth when I found a school uniform at my eyesight level, I didn't notice anyone behind me. Looking up, my cheeks turned bright red as the heat crept into them when I found Jungkook in front of me, looking at me with a little frown.

I have been caught. I gulped, taking a step backward. How long did he know I was following him?

"What are you doing here?" He asked and I smiled awkwardly, still taking steps backward. The space between me and him made my heart go crazy and my throat dry. I never understood that feeling around him.

"I was looking for a book of course." I said, looking behind me, giving him my back. I grabbed a random book from the shelf before turning to look at him. "See! A book. What are you doing here?"

He grabbed a book from the shelf beside him as he said, "Reading!" But his words also sounded like a lie and I couldn't help but chuckle.

Jungkook's shoulder relaxed as he smiled at me. I didn't know what the both of us were doing. But he made me more curious about him.

"Do you want to skip classes, today?" Jungkook said, taking me by surprise. Without waiting for my reply, I found myself being dragged out of the library. An electric shock was felt in my hand when Jungkook hands made contact with mine. Such a strange familiar feeling.
