Fake Boyfriend || A Taekook Fanfic - Chapter 24: Chapter 24

The next day~
TAEHYUNG'S POV
"Yah Jimin! Why are you acting so weird?"
I and Jimin had gone to a new restaurant that had opened up on Friday and we went to taste the food. The price wasn't so expensive, so we could afford to eat it. However, Jimin kept glancing at a certain male who was sitting on the opposite corner to ours. He kept on biting his nails and kept drinking water. Till now, he had totaled seven glass of water.
"I am not acting weird," he replied back and I groaned in frustration. I looked at the menu and decided to choose something for myself. I called the waiter and told my order.
"Okay sir. And what about him?" the waiter pointed to Jimin who was still staring at that guy. I sighed and said, "He will have a glass of water. Thank you."
The waiter awkwardly smiled and left. I looked back at Jimin and he was still doing his business.
"Do you like him?" I said and he glared at me.
"Why will I like him?" he said back.
"Then stop staring at him." he pouted and peeked at the guy, again. I threw the menu card on his face and he glared at me.
"Okay fine. What if I like him? So what?" he said to me and I grinned.
"Then that means you are jealous," I smirked and he immediately blushed from embarrassment.
"No way," he mumbled.
"Yes way. You are jealous of the girl sitting next to Yoongi, right?" he nodded and I patted his back, "Don't worry. We will see what their relationship is."
And so the whole time we stalked at him and the girl sitting beside him. He was laughing and smiling in front of her and every time he did that, Jimin would growl. My phone buzzed and I picked it up to see a message from Jungkook.
Unknown
Stop staring at Yoongi!
Huh? How in the heck did he know that? I looked around and I couldn't see him. Was there any cameras here? But there was none.
Me
Where are you?
Unknown
At home
Me
Huh?
Then how can you see me?
Unknown
Yoongi just told me that you and
Jimin were staring at him
Me
Huh?
But he didn't take out his phone
Unknown
Which century do you live in?
He texted me through his watch
Watch? Wait...a smart watch? No wonder why he was tapping at the watch. I thought he was trying to get it to work.
"Hey Jimin. Yoongi knows we are staring at him," I whispered to him.
"Yeah I know." I gaped at him and whispered to him, "But how?"
"From that time he has been looking at us from the corner of his eye. That is why I glared at him from time to time," he grinned and I face-palmed myself. Lame ass.
"I am go—"
"Look! He is leaving." Indeed he was. He paid the bill and got up. The girl was arranging her purse and took Yoongi's hand and they both walked out. Jimin gnawed at his tee shirt and slammed the money on the table.
"Keep the change," he said to the surprised waiter. He grabbed hold of my hand and pulled me out from my chair, "Let's go. We have to find out."
But why me? You are the one who is jealous. We raced out of the restaurant and into the crowded streets. We looked around and Yoongi was nowhere to be seen.
"Sheesh!" Jimin pulled at his hair and looked around, "Where did he disappear off to?"
"Who are you looking for?" someone said from behind us. We slowly turned around and came face to face with Yoongi who had his arms crossed in front of his chest. He was glaring at Jimin and so was Jimin at him.
"I was looking for you, old grandpa."
"And why so?"
"Who the heck was that girl who sat next to you?" Jimin asked Yoongi. He sighed and flicked Jimin's head, "Ouch! That hurts, you moron."
"That girl is my cousin," he said and Jimin gasped.
"What the hell?! Why didn't you tell me before?" Jimin yelled and that made Yoongi pissed.
"Why would I tell you every single thing about me? Huh?" Yoongi yelled back and they ended up quarrelling. Luckily I took them to a quiet alley so as to not gain attention on the streets. I sat on a wooden box and looked at them fight. I took out my phone and began to play 'Fruit Ninja'.
"Why are you playing when those two creatures are fighting?" That voice! I turned to my right and saw Jungkook staring at me. He had on a white tee shirt and black, ripped jeans and was wearing a black, leather jacket on top of the tee shirt. As expected from a rich kid to have such a fancy jacket. I was too poor to even afford a proper Gucci shoe. Sad me.
"Don't want to interrupt," I said and went back to playing. He sat beside me and he looked at me playing.
"You seem to be good with this game," he said and I grinned proudly.
"Obviously. I am a Ninja master. Nin-Nin," I said and he laughed.
"You are weird."
"Have you not played it?" I asked him and he shook his head.
"My father doesn't allow me to play video games since he believes them to be a waste of time. That's why I am always surrounded by books and you rarely see me looking at my phone." I  handed him my phone and he looked at it and then at me.
"You can try now." He smiled and he took my phone from my hand and I changed the settings to easy. For a beginner, he was pretty good, but when he loses a match, he gets annoyed and angry. He almost threw my phone down when he lost a mission.
"Aish! Don't ever play with my phone. You can download it on yours," I snatched my phone from his hand and he scowled at me.
"You could have told me that earlier."
"But you were too—"suddenly he shut my mouth with his hand and pointed behind me. I turned around and saw the most amazing and disgusting scene. Yoongi and Jimin were kissing. Like actually. They seem to have forgotten about me and Jungkook. Wait...they were arguing, right? What happened now?
"We got another couple in the gang now," Jungkook whispered and I nodded. Wait another? "Let's go. I am hungry now."
He got up and so did I. But before I left with Jungkook, I took out my phone and snapped a picture of the couple kissing. Hehe. This is for blackmailing Jimin.
"You look creepy with that smile," Jungkook pointed to my face which was giving off evil vibes. I rolled my eyes and we walked out of the alley and into the busy streets.
"Should we put a sign or something that says 'Couple kissing? Enter at your own risk,'?" I asked Jungkook and he chuckled.
"What if they do something else beside kissing?" I tilted my head in confusion and then it dawned on me.
"Why will they do that in the middle of an alley? I mean who does that?"
"You have no clue where all people do that. Want to try?" he smirked at me and I rolled my eyes at him. I am never going to lose my virginity to a guy like him.
"Where do you want to go?" I asked him and he began to look around. He rubbed the back of his neck as he tried to choose from the numerous restaurants.
"How about that?" he pointed to a ramen food stall.
"Really?" I asked him and he nodded. I sighed and we walked towards the stall. A plump and cheerful lady greeted us and asked for our orders. We looked at the menu.
"Which is good according to you?" he asked me.
"I am going to take Shoyu ramen. I recommend miso for you."
"Is it good?" he asked me.
"Don't know."
"Then why did you recommend it."
"I have never tasted it. So it will be fun if we did. And plus we can eat two types today." He rolled his eyes and handed me the menu. I ordered the food for us and we waited for the food to arrive.
We got the food in five minutes. I immediately snatched the bowl and slurped the delicious ramen.
"You have no manners," Jungkook commented and he ate his food. His eyes immediately widened and he smiled, "So good. Thank you for the food, ma'am." The lady smiled and patted Jungkook's head before heading back to cook for the others.
"You like it?" I asked him and he happily nodded and I smiled. I held out my bowl to him and he looked at me with a confused face, "Eat this also. It is good."
He smiled and nodded. He took a huge amount of it and immediately ate it off. I gaped at him and frowned at him. He saw my expression and he chuckled.
"Sorry. Didn't mean to eat so much. This might be the first time I have eaten ramen," he said.
"It's okay. You don't— WAIT, WHAT? THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME?" I asked and he nodded. I gasped, "But why haven't you eaten it before? Right after a baby is a born, ramen is the first food to be eaten."
"Yeah, I know. But my father never allows me to eat these kind of food. He calls it 'The commoner's food'," he said and I sighed. It was pretty sad for him. He was multi-talented and yet, he had no freedom at all. He couldn't even eat junk food! How mean is that!
"Commoner's food? It's just food."
"Yeah," he chuckled, "But my father discriminates everything he sees. I am not allowed to wear ripped jeans too. He says that I look like a beggar."
"You still look like a filthy rich kid."
"Really?" he asked me and I nodded, "Wow! Didn't expect that from you."
"Whatever," I waved my hand and finished my food. He was still savoring the food, while at the same time making me hungry. My stomach growled and he heard it. He chuckled and pushed his bowl towards me.
"You can have some," he insisted and I looked at the bowl. I shook my head and gave it back to him. He looked confused at the sudden refusal.
"My mom will kill me if she gets to know that I am eating junk food," I said and he laughed. I flicked his forehead and he whacked my shoulder. We continued to fight and in that process, his ramen bowl fell down and the contents was splattered all over the floor. Then we continued to blame at each other and the helpless lady cleaned the floor without bothering us. We realized what we had done and apologized to the lady for causing a ruckus. Then we continued to argue.
"Forget it. I am going home now," I ended the argument and left the place. I looked behind and saw Jungkook walking right behind me. What is he doing? Does he want to apologize? No way will he ever do that! I stopped and glared at him, "Why are you following me?"
He scratched his head and sighed, "Because that's the direction to my house."
"Your...house?" I said and he nodded. I wanted to slap myself for thinking something else, "Then...lets uhmm...walk together?" he stared at me and I mentally slapped myself. Now he thinks you are some weird person. What's wrong with asking someone to walk with them? I was feeling lonely and usually Jimin accompanies me halfway, so I am not used to walking alone.
"Fine," he said and he held my hand. I looked at our interlocked hands and at him. Was he blushing? But the weather was hot, so maybe because of the heat he was red?
"Are you feeling hot? Your face is so red" I asked him and he shook his head. I tried to remove my hand from his, but his grip on mine was too strong, "Why are you holding my hand?"
He looked at our hands and gripped mine tightly, "Simply. Now shut up and walk with me." I sighed and walked beside him. People were staring at us and I suddenly felt a cold, tingling feeling running down my back. Was someone glaring at me?
*******
"So that is his boyfriend?" a young girl asked the woman standing beside her. She was wearing a black crop top and white shorts and the woman beside her was wearing the same clothes as her. Twinning!
"Yes," the woman replied, "Leishi. That is your rival."
"Don't worry Mrs. Jeon," she said and softly chuckled, "Nothing will stand in between me and Jungkook."
