-AUTHOR's POV-
Y/N: Jungkook, where are we going?
Jungkook: Oh My God! Y/N, can you just trust me and chill? I'm not gonna murder you.
He said while laughing a little.
Jungkook: God! It's the 13th time you are asking me that.
He took his eyes off her to the road as he continued his driving.
●●Flashback●●
Jungkook: Y/N?...
He shook her by her shoulders softly.
Jungkook: Hey...Y/N?...
She slowly opened her eyes. "Adorable" He smiled at her cute, sleepy face.
Y/N: Jungkook.... Is something wrong?
She asked while rubbing her eyes as sleepiness wasn't helping her at all.
Jungkook: Let's go.
She looked at him confused.
Y/N: Where?...
Jungkook: Secret...
He said grinning widely once again making her confusion bigger.
She looked around, trying to process the situation when her eyes stopped at the clock. "3:14.."
She looked at him saying,
Y/N: Jungkook, it's 3 in the morning. Where will we go? There's no bus available right now. Besides ajumma and others will be worried if we leave without letting them know. And it won't be wise to wake them up at this hour.
Once again her thoughts left him amused. How can she think so deeply when she just woke up? People in general would probably be grumpy for waking them up this early while she's there softly explaining him the situation.
Jungkook: Don't worry. We'll leave a note for them. Now hurry because we need to reach there before its late.
Y/N: H-huh?
●●End of flashback●●
She fell silent. Jungkook looked at her thinking why wasn't she making a sound only to find her fast asleep on her seat. He giggled to himself. "Why do you have to be so cute? Ahh!"
Jungkook: Y/N...?
He called for her softy after reaching their destination. "I hope she'll be happy and enjoy it."
Jungkook: Hey... wake up...Wake up...
He chuckle at her whines.
Jungkook: Come on... We've reached here.
She slowly opened her eyes but closed it again to adjust her eyesight. But when her eye sight adjusted with the light she froze.
Y/N: J-Jungkook...? Where are we...?
She asked looking around making sure what she's seeing is right. She looked at him hoping he would say something positive.
But he only kept grinning from ear to ear.
Y/N: Jungkook...? Please say something. Why in the world we are here!? In front of THIS?!
Jungkook: Calm down, Y/N. It's just a park.
Y/N: That's not what I meant! It's- it's the Cooky Land! Do you even know how expensive the tickets are?! Jungkook... think before you do something...
She sighed while messaging her template.
Jungkook: And how expensive the tickets could be?
Y/N: It- I- I don't know.... I just heard they are quite expensive while working at the cafe... Some group of students were discussing about it...
She said looking down, feeling ashamed. She felt small in his eyes even when he was only looking at her with admiration.
Instead of answering he dragged her behind him out of the car.
Y/N: It's almost 4 in the morning! The park is closed! We can't get in. There's no point in doing this. Let's just head back, okay?
Jungkook: Let's see if we can get in or not. We can always sneak in, can't we?
He gave her his mischievous smile which made her stop on her steps.
Y/N: N-no... We can't... It'll create a lot of problems if we get caught. That's a very bad idea Jungkook. Let's head back. Please... Your reputation will be at risk if we get caught.
Jungkook: Are we seriously talking about my reputation here on your birthday? Just chill, Y/N. It'll be fine. We won't get caught.
And without listening to her anymore protest he started to unlock he door somehow. That's when she realised they were already in front of the giant gate.
Before she can process and stop his, the door has already opened.
Y/N: H-how...?
Jungkook: See? Told ya. I'm not Jungkook for no reason.
Y/N: Let's go--
He was again dragging her along with him inside the largest park of Korea. She stopped feeling scared of getting caught.
Y/N: It's- It's so dark here.. Let's get out..
She whispered to him which he ignored intentionally. Suddenly she got startled at the loud sounds coming from somewhere near.
Y/N: W-what was t-that sound?
Jungkook: I--
???: Sir!
Both of them looked at the direction. Y/N gripped his shirt tightly as she thought they got caught.
Y/N: Shit! Oh god! Oh my god! Oh my god!
She mumbled while he assured her that they were safe.
Man: Sir, is everything fine? I couldn't understand why you asked us to do this all of a sudden but we did our best to make everything perfect.
Jungkook: Yeah, everything's fine. I just wanted to celebrate someone's special day.
Man: Sir, Mam, please come this way.
She was left clueless and lost with a Jungkook and a stange man guiding them the way. She slightly tucked on his sleeves, he bent a little so his ear can reach her mouth.
Y/N: Who is this man? Where is he taking us? Is he talking us to his boss? Are we gonna have to go jail for breaking in?
He just chuckled at her cuteness and assured her that they weren't in a danger.
Y/N: Then wh--
Man: Sir, we are here. Everything is arranged. You can get inside.
Jungkook: Thanks man. And sorry for troubling all of you in the middle of the night.
Man: Please don't say that, sir. It's our duty towards our boss.
Then the man bowed and left.
Jungkook pulled her beside him while still holding her hand tighter.
Y/N: Jungkook, wh--
Jungkook: Come on. Let's get in!
Y/N: For w-wha--
And she again found herself in a different place. Ferries wheel. She was beyond lost. "What are we doing here? Why is he doing this?"
Soon they were at the top of the wheel. He gently looked at her face and said softly,
Jungkook: Turn around and look outside.
And she did, without saying anything. To her surprised, she meet with a beautiful lighting sky.
She gasped and put a hand on her mouth. Jungkook was satisfied with her reaction and praised himself in his mind. "Good job, kookie."
Her beautiful wide eyes look at him.
Y/N: H-how... did...you....?
Jungkook: Happy birthday to the most wonderful girl of the world. Happy birthday, beautiful.
Her heart skipped a bit. "Beautiful...?" She looked everywhere but at him as she was so flustered and unfamiliar with the compliments.
"What are you looking at not doing your work!?"
"I-I... I was jus-"
He followed your gaze and found how you were looking at the girls going to prom. They wore beautiful clothes, they looked like beautiful fairies. It was your prom too. But you didn't had the chance to go.
"Beautiful. Aren't they? That's one of the thing you can never be."
Jungkook: Hey! You there?
She snapped out of imagination.
Y/N: Y-Yeah....
Jungkook: Happy birthday to my favourite girl in the world. I know I sound cringe but it's the truth. You are truly an amazing person about whom I'm grateful I met. I know we didn't really have a good beginning and I really regret my actions which was so immature of me. But what's done is done, we can't turn the time back because believe me if I had the chance then I would be more than happy to turn the back to where we met and change the memories to sweet ones. I know I can't ask for you to forget what I did but I can try to ease the dark ones with the best ones which we'll create from onwards in the future. So let's restart.
He took a breath before continuing,
Jungkook: Hello! I'm Jungkook, Jeon Jungkook. Nice to meet you!
He brought out his hand. She smiled at his gesture.
Y/N: I'm Y/N. Nice to meet you too!
She said ever so softly while taking his hand making him smile.
Jungkook: Let's get out.
Y/N: H-Huh?
She was so engrossed that she didn't notice they were already on the ground again.
Jungkook: Ride whichever ride you want, do whatever you want to do. It's a gift for your birthday.
Y/N: It's fine. Let's just go back or we can walk around if you want.
Jungkook: Why? Ride anything here. What's the problem? Don't you like it here?
He furrowed his eyebrows. "Did ajumma gave me wrong informations?" He clearly remembered her saying to him that 'Cooky Land' was one of the places she wanted to go ever since she was a child.
Y/N: No no no. It's not that. I like it here, really... I just- Let's walk around, okay?
Jungkook: But why? What's the problem?
Y/N: I- It would cost a lot, Kookie. You don't understand it now but later you'll regret it to even bring me here. And I don't want that.
Jungkook: God! You can't be that dense. And haven't you noticed anything?
Y/N: What?
Jungkook: What did you just call me?
She looked puzzled for a second before feeling the bloods rush to her cheeks when she realised what she had just addressed him.
Y/N: I-
Jungkook: I loved it. From now on you are gonna call me Kookie not Jungkook. I really loved it.
He couldn't help but smile cheekily.
Jungkook: Another thing. What's the name of this park?
Y/N: Cooky Land...?
Jungkook: What did you just called me?
Then it hit her as he looked at him with bewildering eyes.
Jungkook: You guessed it right, sweetheart.
Y/N: Y-you... own- You own this place?!
Jungkook: Bingo!
Y/N: B- Th-
Jungkook: Oh! Come on. Let's ride that one!
And that's how she got dragged after the whole time for in ride to another. Whichever she likes.
●●●
Mrs. Jeon: Happy birthday, my little girl. God! My childs are growing so fast!
She engulfed her into a tight yet comfortable embrace.
Y/N: I- Thank you so much, mom.
Mr. Jeon: Happy birthday, sweetheart.
He said lovingly patting her head. She bowed at both of them before saying,
Y/N: Thank you, mom-dad.
Mr. Jeon: Get straight. We are you parents not strangers to whom you should bow.
Mrs. Jeon: Yeah. Instead you should jump into my embrace and claim your hug.
'We are you parents' a sentence she was always dying to hear. Her eyes brimmed with the unknowing tears.
Mrs. Jeon: Omg! D-Don't cry!
And she was yet again engulfed into a warm embrace of a mother, her mother.
●●●
Jungkook: Did you enjoy your day?
She hummed happily. A big smile was plastered on her face the whole day.
"Seems like a managed to make one of your day better. I promise I'll never let anyone take that smile from your face ever again."
Soon he drove to their doorway.
Jungkook: Get inside. I'll come after parking the car in the garage.
Y/N: Okay!
She exclaimed after getting out. But as she reached the door she was met with an unexpected view.
