vanessa's pov ࿐ྂ ;


it was 7am and i woke up to the sound of jimin's voice but he was calling jungkook's name. i opened my eyes and looked around, i was in my hotel room. i heard jimin's voice again but it was coming from my phone and saw that the call with jungkook from last night was still on-going but we both had our cameras turned off.


"jungkook-ah, wake up"


"yah, why's your phone still on?"


"erhmm" jungkook mumbled


"wow you've been in a call with vanessa for 9 hours?!"


"hello?" jimin said in the call


"oh, hi jimin"


"good morning! when did you wake up?"


"i woke up as soon as i heard you trying to wake jungkook up haha"


"oh oops haha"


"hyung, give me back my phone" jungkook said in his morning voice


"i'm going to give the phone back to jungkookie now, see you soon at dance practice!" jimin said


"okay see you soon~"


"here, talk to your girlfriend" jimin said


"vanessa?" jungkook said before clearing his throat


"yeah?"


"good morning~"


"good morning~"


"how was your sleep?"


"it was fine, how about yours?"


"good not bad"


"how did we not end the call?"


"i guess we both fell asleep around the same time without realising haha"


"really? wow, this is the longest call i've ever had"


"same here haha"


"i have to get ready now but i'll see you soon"


"okay, see you soon~"


we finally ended the call. i got out of bed, charged my phone, ate breakfast with the others, got ready and we all made our way to the dance studio.

once we all arrived at the dance studio, we stretched and practiced the choreography for a few hours. i kept thinking of what i was going to tell vanessa when i confess to her after dance practice. during our breaks, yoongi-hyung would only be with vanessa again. they would joke around but saw the way he was looking into her eyes, i had a feeling that he also had a crush on her.

jungkook has been acting a bit off, i kept seeing him pacing around the room and biting his bottom lip. once he walked out of the dance studio, yoongi wanted to talk privately in the hallway.


"vanessa, i like you" yoongi said while fiddling with his fingers


"y-you like me? what type of like?" i stuttered


"i like you more as a friend"


"i honestly didn't expect that"


"don't you like me?" he asked and pouted


"of course i do! but-"


"but what?"


"i can't accept your feelings for me, it's not that i don't care or anything but i have feelings for jungkook. i'm sorry, i love and admire you as a person and an idol i look up to, yoongi"


"i understand, it's just- i felt like we were getting close and i started liking you even though you've been going out with jungkook. i feel bad now..."


"we're all human, things happen so don't feel bad or anything. we're still close friends, nothing changed between us"


"alright, i'm glad we're still close friend but whenever i need backup vocals for any of my songs, you'll be down to do it right?"


"of course~" i said and hugged him

i went to the bathroom to cool down and prepare myself to confess to vanessa. when i was walking back to the dance studio, i saw yoongi-hyung and vanessa talking in the hallway. i couldn't hear what they were talking about but once they hugged, i called out vanessa's name and she turned around.


"what is it?" she asked


"come with me" i said while lightly grabbing her right hand and we walked outside at the entrance.


"what's wrong?"


"we need to talk" i said while still holding her hand


"okay"


"it looks like yoongi likes you..."


"he does but-"


"vanessa, i like you"


"jungkook- wait what?"


"i really like you. i've had a crush on you once we first met and i didn't realise it after we got to know each other and i would feel hurt or jealous whenever you're close with yoongi. please, tell me how you feel towards me and who your crush is"


"it's you"


"what?"


"you're my crush and i've always liked you"


"really??"


"yes but about yoongi-"


"who are you going to choose? if you choose me, i'll be waiting for you outside lotte world tomorrow at 1pm. if you don't come then i guess you don't want to be with me..." i said and let go of her hand


i then walked back inside the dance studio, everyone asked where vanessa was and i told them. we all packed up and made our way to the front entrance of the dance studio.

once jungkook walked back inside the dance studio, i was speechless and was trying to process what just happened.


"why is yoongi an option when i only have feelings for jungkook? if only jungkook didn't cut through my sentences, he would've known that i'd choose him but i guess he was flustered" i thought to myself


a couple of minutes later, everyone walked out of the dance studio and looked at me. emily handed me my bag and bts had to leave. after they left, we made our way back to the hotel.


12pm


emily and leanne came into my hotel room and i told them what happened.


"guys, yoongi and jungkook confessed to me"


"NO WAY" leanne said in shock


"wow, you're lucky" emily said


"that's not the point" i said and laid on my bed


"yoongi likes you more than a friend?" leanne asked


"yep but i told him that i loved him as a person and an idol i look up to"


"then what did he say?" leanne asked


"he said that he understood but i could tell he was hurt though"


"of course he would be" emily said


"definitely choose jungkook since you both really like each other and you've been going on dates" leanne said


"that's so true! it was so obvious that you guys liked each other but i wonder why yoongi decided to tell you that he likes you when you've been going out with jungkook" emily said


"and it was weird how they both confessed on the same day..." leanne said


"what are you going to wear??" emily asked


"i have no idea"


"let's go shopping to buy you a cute new outfit for your 3rd date tomorrow" leanne said and stood up


"i'll ask mr an" emily said then left the room


when emily came back from asking mr an, we all got ready and made our way to the shopping mall.


3pm


i bought a white shirt with a flower embroidery, black denim shorts, cute socks and earrings. mr an, emily and leanne also bought a few things then we ate at a cafe nearby and went back to the hotel.

after we left the dance studio, we ate lunch and have been in the music studio for a couple of hours now, working on new songs for our upcoming comeback in a few months. i couldn't stop thinking about vanessa and what she told me. i was surprised and happy that she said i was her crush and that she always liked me. i was getting worried about who vanessa was going to choose, it's either me or yoongi. it wouldn't make sense if she chose yoongi over me because they haven't been on dates or anything and most of the time vanessa is spending time with me. i hope she turns up tomorrow when i wait for her outside lotte world. i'm planning to finally have our first kiss in the ferris wheel in the evening when the sun is setting so it's more romantic and memorable.

once we got back to the hotel, i've been bullet journalling while chatting with emily and leanne. we also practiced the choreography for the performance a couple of times.


a few hours later


i came back to my hotel room after eating dinner with mr an, emily and leanne at a korean restaurant nearby. i got ready for bed, video called my parents & friends back in australia to keep them updated and catch up for a bit.

10pm


the hyungs and i just got back to our dorm after dance practice for our concert in australia next month. i was felt so exhausted, i got ready for bed and laid in bed. vanessa was still on my mind and i haven't heard from her all day. i checked if i had any text messages from her but i didn't. i sighed, put my phone away and tried to fall asleep.

10pm


it was getting late and i was feeling sleepy. i put my ipad and phone away, laid in bed and sighed. i couldn't stop thinking about jungkook and i haven't heard from him all day. i got my phone out again and checked if i had any text messages from jungkook but i didn't. i decided to look through the photos and videos of jungkook and i from our dates. it made me happy but seeing and hearing jungkook's voice made me miss him. i finally put my phone away, prayed that tomorrow would be an amazing day then i fell asleep.
