Chapter 17 - Park Hanna

Hanna sat there wondering what she had just witnessed at the BigHit building.

His eyebrows were curled, lines forming in between them, and his lips harshly pursed. Following his gaze, Hanna saw that he was looking at Namjoon and her roommate.

Jungkook was looking at their interlinked hands.

"Did you want some?"

Snapping back from her thoughts, her consciousness fell back into the metal chair she was sitting in at the barbecue restaurant. It was a lower end establishment that the boys liked near their work place. Jimin had said that they visited often enough. The owners knew them by name and always reserved a back room for them to use. Away from the public eye.

She looked towards the direction of the voice and realised Jungkook had a bottle of soju in hand.

"N-no.. That's fine thanks." Hanna forced a smile before continuing to study him.

Y/N and Namjoon were sitting together at one end of the table, giggling at their inside jokes, lost in their own little world. But Jungkook was visibly bothered by this.

Does he have feelings for her?

Hanna clenched her fists as she internally fought with herself.

It must be killing him on the inside. If he's fallen for her... I haven't got a chance. There's no way he'd look at someone like me that way.

It's not fair.

How does she have Jimin, Namjoon AND Jungkook wrapped around her fingers?

No.

She's not like that. She's not doing it on purpose.

"Are you okay?" Again, her thoughts were interrupted by an outside voice. Jimin was looking at her with tense eyebrows and a slight head tilt.

Only then did Hanna realise how hard her face was. She had tears pooling in her eye lids and now she was fighting hard to not let them go.

"Yeah, I'm fine." She lied.

"You don't look-"

"I'm fine okay!" Exasperated she didn't want anyone else to know what she was going through. "And even if I wasn't it's none of your business!"

This silenced the usually chatty Jimin. Hanna could see he was taken aback.

For a split second.

"Oh I don't really care, but a pretty lady like you," Jimin whispered as he ran his fingers along her jaw line. "Shouldn't be crying."

Hanna gasped at his touch and felt her heart skip a beat.

"Stop it," swatting Jimin's hand away, he chuckled at her response. Hanna was determined to not let this player affect her.

In the next hour, rowdiness ensued as more meat and alcohol was served. Hanna sat there uncomfortably, almost like she was looking at herself from above and not being able to say or do much.

There was cheeky Jimin who was trying to flirt his way out of every conversation. There was Namjoon who had his arm around her friend, and then there was Jungkook who other than his occasional glances over at Namjoon and Y/N, didn't give away his true emotions.

"I'm sorry Y/N, I have to go." Hanna quickly pushed herself out of her chair as the rest of the table protested. But she didn't care and their voices were being drowned out by her confliction.

As Hanna entered the hallway that lead to the exit, someone caught her wrist, jerking her to stop.

"Jungkook?" To say she was surprised was an understatement.
