55 | i love you, you love me, but not in the same way

Start from the beginning
                                    

I laugh at my own joke as she punches me lightly on the chest, laughing. I take this opportunity to bring her closer to me.

《I also wash but I don't smell so much.》 She complains.

《You don't smell it, but your scent is something, something sensational.》

《Sensational?》 Her shoulders move, because of her laughter.

《Yes, your scent, your voice, your laughter ...》 everything about her attracts me.

《Why are you so sweet to me?》

《Can't I?》

《You shouldn't.》

《Because you're with Yoongi.》 I affirm.

She nods.

《Complimenting you is not cheating.》

《However-》

《Noona.》 I detach myself from her to look into her eyes. 《I will continue to do them even if one day you'll get married.》

She doesn't answer me, I don't know what she's thinking, but I seem to see gratitude in her eyes. What is going on in your mind, Chaerin?

She smiles faintly at me, something disturbs her.

《Thanks Jungkook.》

I smile at her and go back to hug her, she no longer puts up resistance and lets herself go into my arms.

Sometimes I think about how it feels to be in your arms or to wake up next to you. Thinking I can kiss and touch you when I want ... it's a desire that will never leave me.

Why wasn't I the one who could receive your love?

Maybe we are not meant to be. We have never been, I always knew it deep down. But I didn't have the courage to admit it to myself, but I couldn't give up, I had to try.

But noona ... the two of us can never be a couple in love. You will never love me as I do.

I love you, you love me, but not in the same way.

This truth creates a knot in my throat, so tight that it hurts. I try to change my thoughts by asking her something.

《Did you decide what you want to do after graduation?》

《Yup, I will go to Seoul University, I want to study theater. You?》

The last time when I asked her, she still didn't know what to do. To tell the truth ... I wanted to know her answer so that I could follow her wherever she decided to go. But now... I can't do it anymore.

《I want to go to Japan.》

《Japan?》

《Yeah, I want to study new techniques for tattooing, with a master in Japan.》

《Wow, I didn't know you were so into tattoos.》

《I like to make my creations eternal, in this case, my art on people's skin.》

《When I'll have the courage, you can make one on me.》

I caress her hair, why does this whole atmosphere seem like a farewell?

《I'm counting on it.》

She takes her head off the pillow and leans on her elbow to look at me. I take this opportunity to lie on my back, placing my arm under my head.

《When will you leave?》

《Immediately after graduation.》

《So soon?》

I nod.

She does not answer but her lips curve into a sad expression for a moment giving me the impression that the idea of me leaving made her sad. Don't fool yourself Jungkook, she doesn't love you, she only did it because ... because I don't know and I don't really want to think about it. She places her head back on the pillow.

Saying goodbye hurts, but it's necessary if I want to move on with my life. I can't hang on to the idea of ​​a fantasy that will never happen.

I look at her from the side, she is strangely silent, but I understand why, she fell asleep. Breathing slowly from her mouth, her parted lips are covered with a light red color, from the faded lipstick she had before.

Her long eyelashes, the small mole under the eye, her relaxed expression of now ... are things that I will miss once I leave Seoul.

I close my eyes and inhale her scent, it's delicate but also decisive. Like her. It smells of shampoo and soap. I smile thinking back to the "scented smell" speech we had before. And it's true, her smell is so intense. Before, I would never have dreamed of being able to smell her or to be able to get closer to her.

But things have changed and as now she is so close to me that I can feel her. But at the same time she's far away, actually, she is moving away from me, more and more.

This is our farewell, it is the end of our chapter. Will there ever be a continue for us, Chaerin?

Probably not.

I raise my chin slightly, aligning our lips, I slowly approach and kiss her on the lips.

I squint, I hang on to her for a couple of seconds because I know that once I get off, it will be the end for us, for real.

I detach and surprised at myself, I feel my eyes moisten.

《This really is our last kiss.》

I love you, Chaerin.

💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

A soft Chaekook moment! Who can refuse a cuddly JK that gives you puppy eyes? (I definitely wouldn't succeed lol)

Someone gave up... 🤔

HOWEVER, should we talk about these photos? It looks on purpose. Did Jk know I was going to post a chapter on him? 🤔 FUCK. i'm a mess for this man.

I purpelo you💜
