[Author's POV]

They had been in the car for 5 minutes and neither one of them said a single word to the other.

Jiyun was starting to finally calm down until Jungkook huffed loudly, causing her to focus her attention on him. He glanced over and noticed the annoyance written all over her face, deciding now to push her buttons further. "What's your problem, Jiyun?"

"Right now? You."

"I haven't done a single damn thing to you. Why would I be your problem?"

"You know wh- just forget it. It's not even important anyways."

In an instant, he slammed on the brakes and pulled into the first wide spot he saw, slamming the car in park as he turned to face her. "No. What's not important? Huh? Tell me because I'm curious now."

She said nothing and rolled her eyes as she looked out her window. "Wow, you don't want to talk for once? Good because I do and I have plenty I need to say so just listen."

He took a deep breath and let it all flow freely, not giving a damn anymore. "For someone who accused me of being a liar and a fuck boy, you sure seem awful upset and you know what? That's not my fault. You didn't even ASK me what my true intentions were or my point of view of things at all. You simply took the word of a friend over someone who actually started to feel differently about you, which has NEVER fucking happened to me before in my entire life. You want the truth? Here it is. I WAS a fuck boy. I'd have sex with any girl that would let me and you best believe I didn't treat them like I do you. I left the next morning before they were even able to wake up, not even sparing them an explanation and moved on to the next. I have never even went this long hanging out with a girl without trying to have sex with them, and you want to know why? BECAUSE I HAVE ACTUAL GENUINE FUN WHEN I'M WITH YOU. I enjoy our time together, but you shit all over that the moment you believed him and wouldn't even let me explain myself."

He was so upset, pissed off, and even felt slightly broken inside and she could see all of it written on his face as she stared at him with a heavy heart. A tear slipped down her face and he had the audacity to let out an amused chuckle. "What now Jiyun? Do you feel sorry for me? Why? Because you feel like an ass now for not letting me explain-"

She was quick to interrupt him and defend herself. "DON'T tell me how I feel Jeon, you have no fucking idea."

"Enlighten me then. I have nothing but time and I am not driving this car until this shit is cleared up."

Tears continued to fall down her face as she took a deep breath and looked into his beautiful doe eyes that she was starting to adore so much.

"You're right." She hung her head in defeat and his demeanor changed the second she admitted it.

"W-what?"

"You're right about everything you said. Every fucking part of it was exactly right and I do feel like shit for not letting you explain yourself. For that, I am sorry and will admit that was extremely out of line for me to do. But, you have to understand that coming from my best friend, it was almost impossible not to believe him. He's never steered me wrong before and I thought he just wanted to warn me before I got in too deep. The truth is, I was broken when he told me. I cried actually because I didn't want to believe that it was true. I have been really enjoying our time together and it hurt to think that you could be using me in such a way. I am just so sorry that I didn't let you explain Jungkook. Even if you don't talk to me anymore or if you hate me now, I take full responsibility for all of this mess that I've put us in."

He continued to stare at her in disbelief. He knew this woman was different from the very beginning, but he never expected this. She always seemed too proud to admit when she was wrong, and he couldn't stand to see her cry any longer.

"Jiyun?"

She sniffled as she wiped her tears away and looked up at him, "What?"

Before he could realize what he was doing, his body moved closer and in seconds his lips were on hers, pulling them deeper into a passion filled and fiery kiss.
