《Mr. Kim | [A Jinayeon Story]》Chapter 5
Advertisement
Jin walks to his house with all smiles. Still remembering the taste and touch of her lips, he skips inside his house. He hears Jungkook screaming and yelling as he plays his video games and smells Yoongi's cooking from the entrance.
Jin shares a 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom house with two younger guys. Yoongi and Jungkook are still studying in college. They pay the rent and they're age gap isn't that big so they're very casual. Yoongi notices Jin walking in with a big smile and says, "What happened to you?" Jin replies, "I was visited by an angel."
Yoongi looks at him with an unamused face as Jungkook's screaming dialed down. The maknae walks to the kitchen and says, "Smells great! Is it done yet?" Yoongi replies coldly, "No. I told you, I'll call you when it's done."
Jungkook just smiles and turns to Jin. He says, "What's with you?" Jin replies, "I'm just happy, am I not allowed to be happy?" Jungkook says, "You're happier than usual. Something happened and you have to tell us. You're obliged to as an official house-mate."
Jin says, "I kissed my student." Yoongi stops cooking as Jungkook's jaw drops. Jungkook stares at him in horror and says, "I'm calling the cops." Jin chuckles and says, "What?" Jungkook points at him and says, "How can you say that with so much pride?" Jin looks at him confused while Yoongi says, "Kook, he doesn't work at the elementary school anymore."
Jungkook then looks at Yoongi confused and says, "What? When did you quit?" Jin then breaks into laughter and pulls out his phone. He says, "No pabo, I work at the university my dad works at. I'm subbing until he comes back and that elementary school thing was cuz one of the teachers were pretty." Jungkook says, "What happened to... what was her name? Aeri? Mirae? Hyunae? Seoyeon? Eunjung?"
Jin says, "Those were just flings and not my students. This was the girl I kept telling you about. You know, the reason why I cut all my connections with every other girl." He shows a picture to the two and they stare at the girl interestedly. Jungkook says, "Wow, that's a pretty noona." Yoongi replies, "And she likes you?"

Jin glares at the two and says, "And what if she doesn't?" The two reply at the same time, "Then I call dibs!" Yoongi and Jungkook then turn to meet each other's eyes with intense glares. Jin says, "Well too bad, she likes me and I already made my move on her."
Yoongi turns the stove off and says, "Doesn't the university have a rule on dating students?" Jin rolls his eyes and says, "She's barely my student. I'm leaving at the end of the semester so I just have to wait a bit." Jungkook says, "That's kind of creepy. She's still your student."
Jin scoffs and says, "I'm, what, 4 years older? My parents were 4 years apart and they still love each other." Yoongi says, "Do whatever you want dude but you should think about what she's going to go through because of you."
Jin raises an eyebrow as Yoongi says, "Student and a teacher relationship? In college? Just think of the rumors, you should wait until after the semester. Plus, she has to focus on school too."
Jin smiles sincerely and says, "I can wait."
...
Nayeon lays on her bed restless. There's 2 reasons he can't sleep.
First, the memory of Jin's kiss lingers in her mind. She starts giving herself hope and blushes even more just thinking about the possibility of the two dating. Nayeon smiles brightly as her one-sided crush might not be so one-sided.
She closes her eyes trying to remember the feeling his lips left on her. How his hand gently cupped her cheeks and how his face looked so up close. His confidence and straightforwardness is so attractive and the charisma he has is too strong. How can no one else fall in love with him?
She then remembers how he just broke up with that girl in the park. Nayeon starts to blush even more as he imagination soars.
"Did he break up with her because of me?" Her heart starts to flutter remembering his caring voice and how perfect of a guy he is.
The other reason she couldn't sleep was more annoying.

"Hehehe, stop. My roommate is here."
Nayeon grabs a pillow to cover her ears. Jimin laughs and says, "Why don't we go to my dorm? My roommates aren't there." Mina giggles and says, "Never. I still remember that time they walked in and ruined the mood."
The couple suddenly hear the door shut as Nayeon left. She couldn't stand the two being so lovey dovey and chose to just take a long walk until the two fall asleep. She opens her door to see Jisoo opposite of her. They stare at each other awkwardly.
Nayeon whispers, "Hey." Jisoo repeats, "Hey." They continue to stare at each other in awkward silence. Jisoo says, "I was going to take a walk, do you want to... come with me?" Nayeon just nods as they walk outside the building.
Jisoo says, "Jennie keeps ranting about some guy, it was annoying." Nayeon says, "Mina has her boyfriend over and it's disgusting." Jisoo cracks a small smile as she imagine Nayeon just being there awkwardly.
Nayeon says, "I haven't seen you around lately..." Jisoo says, "Ahh, yeah..." Nayeon says, "Even Jinyoung too, it's like you two are avoiding me."
Jisoo then says awkwardly, "I heard he confessed to you." Nayeon is taken aback for a while but quickly replies, "A-ah, yeah he did." After a long pause, she continues, "But I rejected him." Jisoo replies with an unsurprised, "Yeah, he told me."
Another silence arrives but Jisoo suddenly breaks it as she says, "Nayeon..." Nayeon turns her head to make eye contact with her friend and Jisoo says, "I-I like Jinyoung."
Nayeon then looks away with a smile and says, "I know, there was two reason why I rejected him. One is that I like someone else. Two is because you like him." Jisoo blushes and says, "W-what? Am I that obvious?" Nayeon shakes her head and says, "You told me that one day you got drunk when we hung out with Jeongyeon." Jisoo looks away embarrassed and says, "Ahh, so I told you..."
Awkward silence fills the air once again but it's Nayeon who breaks it this time. She says, "Jin kissed me." Jisoo stops walking and quickly turns to Nayeon in shock. She stutters, "J-jin? As in the lecturer Jin? Mr. Kim? Professor Kim's son?" Nayeon nods shyly as Jisoo covers her mouth with one hand.
Nayeon blushes and says, "And I like him." Jisoo gasps again as she brings her other hand to her mouth not believing anything. Jisoo says, "He's the guy you like? So what are you going to do?" Nayeon shrugs her shoulder and says, "What can I do?" Jisoo says, "Well, the guy you like just kissed you so he should have the same feelings. But... isn't it weird?"
Nayeon nods and says, "Should I just wait? You know, until the semester ends where he's just a regular adult and not our teacher." Jisoo says, "Can you really wait that long? If you both like each other right now then what's holding you two back?" Nayeon says, "It's complicated. You know what people would say..."
Jisoo then says, "But you know what they say, love is love. What's a 4 year gap going to do anyway? What's a teacher student relationship anyway?" Nayeon nods and says, "Hey Jisoo, you should confess to Jinyoung." Jisoo gets shy and says, "I did."
Nayeon turns to her eagerly and says, "You did? What did he say?" Jisoo looks away and Nayeon starts to feel bad. She says, "Look Jisoo, it's oka-" Jisoo turns back to her with a big smile and says, "He said he'll try."
Nayeon then switches to a happier mood and says, "Whaaa, congratulations!" Jisoo just blushes and says, "Now it's your turn." Nayeon raises an eyebrow as Jisoo says, "Go tell Jin you like him."

Chimera
Eleanor meant the world to Titus. So when an opportunity to bring her murderer to justice appears, Titus jumps on the chance. His quest, however, would mean traversing the dangerous world of Nivandor, a land infested with monsters, night hunters, and corrupt kings–nothing he and his lord, Lady Priscilla, couldn't handle. Their plans change, however, when both of them are dragged into a nightmare realm, a dimension filled with strange and powerful terrors unlike any they've ever faced. Titus's skill as a kinetic mage is put to the ultimate test as he must work with his lord to fight off the increasingly dangerous monsters that hunt them as they hunt down the three remaining Seraph lords sustaining the Nightmare. For only when the final Seraph lord is slain will the Nightmare truly end. --- Happy Holidays! I tried to get a chapter out this month, but there was just too much stuff to do and I got sick. There will also be more stuff to do come the month of December to the point that I don't think I will have a chance to finish the current story arc on a strong note. So, as of today, I will be going on hiatus until the holidays are over. I will hopefully return with the last few chapters of book 2 as well as the DLC chapters to help clarify Titus and Priscilla's powers as well as a look into their lives before the story gets crazy (maybe 6-7 chapters). These chapters are planned to take place in the day between Chapter 1.4 & Chapter 1.5, detailing the day they had before going to Nivandor. How the DLC chapters will be titled is to be decided. The DLC chapters will be posted here free as usual. Really excited to get a break so I can catch up on chapters. Even more excited to be able to start book 3 once the current story arc is finished. Warmly, Daniel --- Disclamer: This story is not a finished product and will be undergoing changes, sometimes significant changes, as the story develops. Think of it as an early access story where nothing is fully set in stone. If I change a part of the story that you really love, I'm sorry, but changing one part of the story will affect the other parts I try to avoid major changes, especially in older chapters, but for the newer ones there will probably be more fine tuning. As for anyone invested in the story who is not happy with the way the story is going, feel free to DM me so I can get feedback. I want to know how you guys feel about the story, what changes I can make, at what point in the story I may have lost you. But until I get specific feedback, I won't know what changes might need to be made. There are about 14 chapters left for Part 2 of Chimera, give or take. I don't have a time frame for when they will be up but know I am chipping away at the chapters as I can. Warm Regards, Daniel --- Cover art credit goes to Brosedesignz, who has an awesome selection of both premade and custom book covers at great prices on her website. She can also be found at thebookcoverdesigner.com, which is where I found my cover.
