Chapter 12

                                    

                                          
"You're one of the most retarded girls I've met in my entire life,"
I stared at Li-na, who crossed her arms over her chest. 
"Well, thank you," she said sarcastically. "You're really making me feel better," 
"You stupid, stupid girl," I grasped her shoulders, shaking her. "Are you stupid? Foolish? Or just simple?"
"You're offending me now," she glared. 
I sighed, resting my forehead against hers with a simple, light drop of my head. 
"Li-na," I breathed. "Can't you just try and stay safe? Why must you out yourself in danger?"
She didn't answer and when I opened my eyes, I saw her tensed up, startled state. 
"What's wrong, darling?" I murmured, dropping my eyes to her lips. 
Half an hour ago, she'd gotten herself some water, and then sat cross legged on my bed. Gesturing for me to sit opposite her, I listened as she told me exactly how she came to be in The Marigold. 
She'd told me that they had tried to force themselves onto both her and Lisa, and would have gotten further than hickeys and kisses if not for Jungkook bursting in. 
I brought my hand up, fingers curling at her jaw and thumb caressing the redness. 
"They kissed you," I muttered. "They stole your- second kiss," 
She flushed light pink, pushing me away harshly. 
"Get away from me," she mumbled, turning to face the other side of the bed. 
"Why?" I teased, face crinkling in amusement. "Are you still embarrassed that you lost your first kiss to me?" 
FLASHBACK
14 year old Li-na crept into Taehyung's bedroom with 15 year old Jungkook, both giggling quietly. 
"Go!" Jungkook whisper-yelled, pushing Li-na to the sleeping boy. 
The girl skipped up to him, ready to fulfil her dare. 
She bent over the bed, face hovering over his, and opened her mouth. 
The girl screamed, loud enough to jolt the boy awake. 
"What the fuck's happening?" The 18 year old gasped, jerking up and very much accidentally locking lips with Li-na.
The two of them froze as Jungkook clapped a hand over his mouth, swivelling round and running out of the room. 
Almost immediately, Li-na sprawled backwards, her hands covering her mouth in horror. 
Taehyung fell back on his sheets, staring at her in bewilderment. 
"Y- you-!" He almost shouted. "You kissed me!" 
"What are you talking about?" She growled. "You kissed me!" 
"What are you doing in my room?" He breathed, propping himself on his elbows and sitting half up. 
"I was supposed to wake you up, as a dare! Not get kissed!" 
"You're so dumb," 
"You're an ignoramus,"
"Get out," he glared. "And don't come back," 
END OF FLASHBACK
LI-NA'S POV
Everything's fucked up. 
Recalling the most embarrassing moment in my life, I cringed vividly and buried my face into a pillow.
