Ch. 22
SinnersBefore I knew it, Saturday evening had already came. The week had gone by in a blur, I was either taking care of things that Taehyung needed done, or I was with Jungkook. Secretly talking about what the plan was an anything that could come up. But no amount of prep work I was still nervous. I hadn't eaten much, every time I tried my stomach turned.
A knock at my door startled me. I turned away from my reflection in the mirror towards the door. "Come in!" I called. The door opened, Jungkook stepping inside, closing the door quietly behind him. "Oh, Jungkook, hello what's up?" I asked.
"I'm just checking on you, seeing how you're doing." He said, his hands disappearing into his trouser pockets.
"I'm fine." I lied. Ever since the other night, things with Jungkook had been a little awkward, I wasn't quite sure how to act around him anymore, I felt stiff an on edge.
