Jungkook likes you. A lot. 
Tumblr media
“What do you like about her?”
Graduating highschool with a 4.4 GPA, currently in his third year of college majoring in computer science, a proclaimed genius by his peers and professors, Jungkook is left stumped and speechless by this question. What does he like about you?
He doesn’t know. Actually, he does. The simple answer being, well, everything. But he can’t say that unless he wants another textbook to the head, something about vagueness and, “you have to be specific, asshat!”
He can’t recall when he began to like you. When those smiles you sent his way began to turn his legs to jelly, or when the hugs you gave him had his heart racing so fast it might as well have been on NASCAR. Cupid could strike him with an arrow right now to make him fall in love with another woman and he’s certain his mind wouldn’t linger from you, your name so deeply engraved in his heart no spell or otherworldly power could have him look at another the same way. The urge just to be close to you plagues him every waking minute, his hand itching to be held by yours, his eyes begging to stare at you for hours on end.
It's gross, cheesy enough to give his stomach a problem, but Jungkook can’t help but turn into a sap when it comes to you. You look like a lovestruck puppy, Hoseok told him one day after he dropped you off at your dorm and came back grinning, cheeks flushed and adoration practically oozing out of every crevice of his being. 
“Kook, look at this!” You had cackled like a madman last week after getting your hands on Jungkook’s old highschool yearbook, cooing and baby talking his freshman photo showing him off in all his adolescent glory. He couldn’t have been more embarrassed, swiftly grabbing it from you and snapping it shut, ears red and pout present. But his pout quickly morphed into a tiny smile, watching you giggle and shake with laughter until you could barely sit up straight and almost face planted onto his floor.
He likes your laugh. You think it's obnoxious, but he swears he’s never heard anything more delightful. If he were to record it and put it on Spotify? Boom, instant hit, 200,000 streams the first day at least. 
Jungkook thinks you’re gorgeous, beautiful, a walking angel amongst mere mortals. You would give Aphrodite a run for her money, he thinks, the Greek goddess of love and beauty being no match for the way you glow effortlessly. You’re probably the reason why supreme deities have not physically revealed themselves to the human race. Why bother revealing yourself when a divine being already roams the earth? Embarrassing, really. Eyes wouldn’t spare them a second glance if they were lucky enough to be in the same room as you.
He likes the way you hold the door open for everyone, even when they’re 50 feet away. Or how you give his hand a little squeeze before letting go. The way your fingers feel in his hair is therapeutic, the affectionate little pats you give him leaving him warm and tingly.
Jungkook notices that you often smile at strangers passing by, and tug his arm whenever there's a dog near, wondering if the owner will allow you to pet it. He listens to the small talk you make with the cashiers in cafes you aren’t a regular at, even after they’ve given you your morning coffee, adoring how you make everyone around you at ease with your magnetic and bright personality. 
You do your best in all your classes, the countless all nighters and sleepy mornings he's spent with you a testament to your dedication. Your tenacity and will to continue to try, over and over again is something Jungkook admires and envies about you. You refuse to let up, this trait being advantageous when it comes to academics, as well as friendships. Motivating and supporting those around you, you’re Jungkook’s everyone’s own little cheerleader. 
You were there for him when he was stressed about his Data Analysis midterm, bringing him drinks and food when all he would chew was the back of his pen. Jungkook remembers working on a programming presentation at his desk one night, only to wake up in the comfort of his bed surrounded by blankets and pillows, the odd scent of coffee and noodles making him sleepily trudge out of his room. With ruffled hair and morning breath he stared as you moved around his apartment, humming to yourself as you set his table for two.
Morning sleepy head, you had teased when you noticed him, hope you slept well. How you managed to carry him from his chair to his bed was beyond baffling, but you assured him, giggling into your mug, that you simply rolled his chair to his bed before pushing him off. You looked so peaceful I didn’t want you to keep working. Thank god you’re a heavy sleeper! 
You’re kind, smart, gorgeous, and make Jungkook’s insides turn to mush without doing anything. He just wants to hold you in his arms forever and kiss you, staring at the stars sparkling in your eyes until his heart bursts while he whispers sweet nothings to you, telling you how special you are and how in love with you he is and-
“JK? Hello? Dude, I asked you a question, what do you like about Y/N?”
Jungkook breaks out of his trance, eyes focusing on Jin before he breaks into a smile, goofy and soft. And though his words are directed at the confused, broad shouldered man in front of him, his mind is worlds away, dreaming of you and only you.
“Everything.”
