Present time.

I quickly ran from where I just embarrassed myself right in front of him. Couldn't I just tell him how much I've been craving for him? Dreaming about him every single night?

What just happened there was not something I've been dreaming of confessing. Romantic, flowers, and...kiss? Meh, and it supposed to be the boy who confessed to the girl. It wasn't like I confessed, though. I must be looked really desperate.

Embarrassing.

I just couldn't help it that he lectured him and he did the opposite thing.

I knew I wasn't attractive like most of girls in my school. Long blonde or auburn hair, cute face, creamy skin with long legs. I was just plain. My hair only reached a few inches below my shoulder, and definitely not cute, dark black hair, and a little bit tanned. And yeah, about 163 cm. Short, wasn't I?

And him. Oh in' Sehun. How did you define perfection anyway? If you asked me, Sehun was my only answer. He was the god amongst boys in my school. Every girl wanted him to be their lover. Most of them wanted him because he was from a wealthy family, in other terms, they wanted his money. Geez, I would break their nails if they were trying to mess with me. Yes, he was my best friend. They messed with him, they messed with me. Boys liked him too. Not like falling in love or something. It was because he was nice to everyone. He was kind to his boy friends. They don't want his money fortunately. His friends took care of him well too. Not to boys only, though. That's why many girls thought he liked them. Who would like clowns anyway? But it wasn't like he would like me too.

Why was it so unfair for me? We began being best friends since he and his family moved to the house right beside mine. It was when I just attended 1st year in high school. We were inseparable since then. We attended many of same classes this year; the one thing which I felt so grateful.

We had gone through hard times together, included his hard times with his past girlfriend and now present girlfriend, Hyojin. Kind of most popular girl in school. She was kind, even to me too. Yeah, it shocked me at the beginning. Since we got into a fight before. Who wouldn't? She teased me everyday. But her behaviors were getting better after Sehun confessing.

But sometimes she was cocky to have Sehun in her arms. And once, I saw her acted rude to her friends. I knew it's bad having bad thoughts about other person. But I just couldn't think the opposite of her. Something was wrong.

She was such a skeleton, though. But I thought Sehun liked that kind of girls. He kept teasing me. Calling me names like pig. I hated that. But it was Sehun. So, yeah, I didn't mind. He was joking anyway.

And now was 1 year until the graduation. And times went slowly. But fast enough in fact that I still kept the same feeling for Sehun. Big yes, I loved him. What else I could do? Hey, I worshipped him.

And now after the incident, I just wanted to jump from a high cliff and buried myself in a deep hole. I was kidding. But no. I ashamed myself right in the face of my crush. I mentally facepalmed myself for that. I did remember how he looked like after the confessing. He was...surprised? And maybe made a disgust face towards my back when I was running away. He didn't catch me up or at least call me back. Of course he did not. He never had his heart for me. What would I expect from him? He was too perfect for me.

I buried my face in my pillow and started sobbing. And crying hard like a babyㅡpigㅡin the end. God, this would be the most hard time I'd ever had. I didn't dare to show up tomorrow. Not in front of him.

Trying to recall our memories. I couldn't help but screaming out the pain I had been carrying for the past years. Just if he would like me back.

 

Throwback.

"Roger. Sehun to Y/n on Saturn. Can you hear me? Do you need air? You're breathing hard. Ya! Are you okay, Y/n?!" he tapped my face lightly.

"Eh, what? Did you say something? Sorry," I paused "Umm, sorry." I hung my head low.

"Seriously? What is with you lately? Daydreaming? Not again, please. I know something's up. You know you could tell me everything," he shifted in his seat and turned me to face him. "Now," hold my hands in his. Damn, how could I even think if he acted like this. "Spill."

"Spill what?" I snorted and tried acting confused to hide the heat creeping on my face.

"You know what I mean. Don't hide it. I know how bad you are at hiding secrets from me," he had the point. I kept my mouth shut for a few minutes.

He exhaled deeply. "Okay. I won't help you in math anymore." he started getting up from my bed. He knew I couldn't solve math without him.

"," I muttered under my breath.

"What? Hey, don't curse! I won't let you borrow my DVDs. Not anymore." no! Not his DVDs, please! He stood. Crossing his hands on his chest, eyeing me in anger and...

"Now. Or never." grabbing his bag from my desk, ready to go out from my room.

"Okay!" I pleaded him to stay with my eyes. He dropped his bag on the floor and walked fast to me. And all of sudden, embracing me tightly.

He carressed my hair and whispered to my ear, "I won't let you suffer alone in whatever that is, Y/n."

Liar.

He withdrew and grasped my shoulders, "Now, tell me."

Okay then, I would spill it now. But what if he rejected me? What if he would never come back after hearing what I said? What if he hated me?

I just collected my thoughts when his phone rang.

"Damn!" he exclaimed. "Give me a minute," he smiled apologetically.

"Yes? Hyojin?" his face lightened up a bit suddenly. What did I expect from him now? "Okay. I'll be in... 15 minutes. 10 minutes? 12, okay? Is that a deal? Alright then. Bye, Hyobae."

Hyobae? For real? Big EW.

He closed his eyes, "Y/n, I'm so-"

"No need to apologize," I continued, "Go to her, Sehun." I smiled to hide my sadness.

He hugged me again. For God's sake I would explode if he kept doing that.

"I will cancel every event I have to hear you later. I promise. It will be our time. Only you and me. No girlfriend, no boyfriend, no-" I cut him off and slapped his arm playfully, "Don't you even try to remind me that I'm not dating!" Yet. I hated 'single'. So yeah.

He let out a chuckle which was an eargasm. He cupped my face and squeezed it, "It's about the time," he smiled reassuringly.

"I knooow. Now get your off my bed and go to your Hyobae!" I pushed him away.

"Heyyy, don't be so jealous, woman. I know you are- damn, you're right I'm late 3 minutes." He grabbed his bag and jacket quickly.

"Seriously? Why is she so crazy about the time? Can't she wait for a few-"

"I don't know. Because she can't wait to see my gorgeous face?" He wiggled his eyebrows and I rolled my eyes while smiling over his too much confidence behavior, even though I 100% agreed with him.

"Thanks for today, Y/n," he smiled like an angle, I would faint rightway if he did it again. "And most of all, the food." He laughed.

"Yeah, yeah, you made it by yourself so, thank you for not asking me to." I grinned and opened the front door for him.

"Later, make me lots of food. Now, bye bae!" He kissed my forehead and jogged to his car.

"Ya! Sehun!" I giggled as he waved at me and drove off with his car to God knows where.

What kind of best friends were we? But it was normal right to kiss his best friend's forehead? Was it just me overreacting? Sigh, Hyojin would kill me if she saw it. But who cared? He was mine first...okay, maybe not. But I knew him first!

 

-GIT-

 

The week passed in blur. Sehun and I hadn't met since our last encounter.

Oh! And the night after he had gone to his Hyobaeㅡewㅡhe arrived at almost midnight and from what I saw, he was so so sooo in a really bad mood.

I knew that face. The last I saw it, when he broke up with his previous girlfriend. Could it be tha-

"Thanks for your attention, Ms. Park! Meet me after school for a detention."

. Mr. Moon was my math teacher. No one wanted to mess with him. Sigh. I didn't even care about the detention, though. What I was worried more that Sehun was in the same class.

I had never been like this in class, ever. I had always been a good student, paying attention and absolutely not daydreaming in the midday. I was sure that Sehun would ask me tons of questions after this.

"O-okay, sir." I answered quietly.

After 40 minutes wasting my minutes of life forㅡthat trashㅡmath, I was gathering my stuff, ready for the damn detention. When someone tapped my shoulder, "After detention." Sehun eyed me with a stern look.

"Bu-"

"No buts!"

"Alright, alright."

He kept eyeing me before he grabbed me by the neck to meet his chest, "Just don't hide anything, will ya?!" And he squeezed me.

I broke the scene, "I won't! Just let me go, Mr. Moon will give me more punishment if I was late."

"Kayyy, see you, Y/n! I'll be at the front gate!"

I answered him by waving at him.

Hell, I don't care about Mr. Moon. I just didn't want blushing more if I was with him for a little longer.

 

-GIT-

 

I jogged to where Sehun was waiting me. And what I saw there, broke my heart apart.

He was hugging her and kissing her crown trailing down to her lips. Closing his eyes as he carressing her cheek.

Tears started forming in my eyes. I couldn't take it anymore. I took a step backward and ready to leave school through another gate.

I was walking so fast that I didn't want to look back anymore. That proved everything. There was no way he would like me back. I was being delusional when he kissed me on the forehead. , it wasn't like he kissed me on the lips.

Keep dreaming, you fool. He is your best friend. He won't like you back. Nothing changes our relationship. That's a final, we're best friend until sun rises on west.

"Y/n!!"

What now?! No need to chase me, moron.

I roughly shed my tears and kept walking.

"Hey, hey! Stop!" He grabbed my wrist tightly and turned me around, "Hey, why in such a hur- God! Y/n, are you crying?!"

"N-no, actually yeah. Not a big deal anyway." I said while sobbing, avoiding his eyes.

"And what exactly make my bae cry?" He asked sweetly while searching my eyes.

"Don't bae me, Sehun," I rolled my eyes to hide my blush. "It's just... about the detention." I faintly smiled.

"Big liar," he shook his head. "Now, I'll treat you ice cream, cotton candy, or sweets you like and explain everything." He made sure I clearly heard the last word. "Come on!"

It had been so long since I was in his car. Every morning he always insisted me to go to school together. But my answer was always the same, big no. I knew it was faster to reach the school, but I'd rather went on my foot. It was healthier and I had never been late by the way. Walking for 10 minutes wouldn't hurt, right?

Sometimes, he gave up on insisting me. So he accompanied me walking. But it was a long time ago before he always picked up Hyojin to school. She even lived in the opposite part of this town. And it never bothered him. Too kind for a cocky girl like her.

"How does the water taste, bae?" He teased me.

"It tastes more than good if you shut your mouth and stop teasing me with that 'bae'!" I stuck my tongue out, "You usually call me 'pig' and such names, what happened? Now you call Hyojin 'pig' instead?" I chuckled.

He didn't answer until I swallowed my drink and looked up to see pain in his eyes.

"Uh, Sehun? Sorry, I didn't kno-"

"It's getting late now, let me buy you something and go home." He forced a smile, tried to lighten up the mood. His mood exactly.

"No, stop!" My both hands quickly grabbed his forearm.

"We," he started. I hate to see him like this. "I didn't want to," no, please. "I broke up with her. I didn't want to, but she-" I cut him off by embracing his body from the right side.

"It's okay. Don't tell if you don't want to. Everything happens for reason. Maybe it's the best way for you. Don't worry, I'm here, Sehun. I'll always be. Comforting and supporting you." I mumbled on his right arm.

I really hated to see him suffering like this. I wanted him to be happy, even it had to be without me. But another side of me cheered in a delight. I didn't like her because she only acted kindly in front of him but she often demanded her friends without Sehun knowing the fact. The power of money absolutely. I felt sorry for their friends.

"She had been using me." It clenched my heart so hurt.

"She did what?!" I pulled away and furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

"It's not me. She doesn't love me. She used me to get her ex back," Bxtch! "I didn't know that she had heart to do that to me." No she didn't have any!

"But I saw you kissed her after-"

"We were acting. So her ex would be jealous. And... he is," he sighed. "It's a goodbye for me but nothing for her. I will never want to see her face anymore."

"Sehun," I just wanted him to be happy. I didn't want to let him down.

"Yeah?"

"You're a great guy. You deserve a great one. She doesn't deserve you. Not a single piece of you. I know you don't know something about her that I've known for so long. That she-"

"Haha. I know how she behaves behind me, Y/n. I just pretended not to. I wanted her to be a better person. But she never will be maybe," he smiled. I smiled too. Then he put his signature playful smirk on his face, "Aaand, who's the 'one' you're talking about here?"

"W-what? O-of course it's-"

"Hey! Why are you stuttering, huh? Do you hide something? , why are you hiding everything from me? Hey, don't laugh!" I couldn't help but laughed at him.

He's indeed a great guy, "So how's your plan? No girlfriend, no boyfriend?" I chuckled.

He stopped walking, facepalmed himself, "What a moron! Sorry I almost forgot. Okay then,"

"Sehun! What are you doing?!" He lifted me, piggybacked me.

"What? Can't I do it for my bestie?" Ugh, that word. Just don't expect anything from him.

"Y/n," he said and walked while carrying me.

"Hm?"

"Let me treat you something, please. It doesn't feel right to see you only drink water, geez it wasn't even counted as a treat."

I giggled. Wrapped my arms around his neck tightly but not the way to choke him. I loved his scent. He smelled manly and gentle.

"I haven't had a drink since the detention. But why?"

"Why what?"

"Why do you really need to treat me? It's not like I'm starving."

"Hmm, I just wanted to. Lately I've been thinking about everything has happened between us. I don't feel I treat you well. I think dating is not good at our age, I just want someone like you."

"You always do, Sehun. You're just overthinking. Aww, I know that. You have me already!" I tried to play along. I knew what he meant anyway. None other than best friend.

"Hahaha. I love you, Y/n," he turned to the side to show his angelic smile.

I LOVE YOU TOO. Nah, it's not what he meant.

"I love you too, Sehun."

"So, here we are!" He dropped me. Cheered happily.

"Where are we? Bubble tea?" His favorite.

"Yeah! Unless you want other food?" I caught his tone saddened. Haha. He really wanted it. No, loved it.

"No! It's perfect." I intertwined our hands, "Come on!"

 

-GIT-

 

I just sat on my bed ready to sleep when there was a notification.

LINE!

From Sehun:

How's today? I was so having fun with you. Thanks, bae!❤

To Sehun:

Me either! Of course I was too. Don't bae me.

From Sehun:

Heyyy, I know you like it, don't ya? Haha. Let's do it again tomorrow. I need to refresh myself and I guess you need it too? Sleep well, Y/n~

To Sehun:

Yeah, yeah whatever. Big yes! I need it more lately. Okay then, have a good rest, bae!❤

 

DAMN WHAT DID I DO?!

Minutes passed. Ugh, forget it. He wouldn't reply anyway.

Seconds before I wanted to shut my phone, there was a message again.

 

LINE!

From Sehun:

I love you.

 

I was blushing as hell. Glad that I hadn't opened it. Smiling like an idiot over three words that had lots of meaning. I just pretended that I didn't read it. Afraid I would reply something more. When he didn't mean more.

Sigh. Sleep is a good choice for now. I smiled to myself before drifted off.

What a wonderful day.

 

-GIT-

 

"You're it!" I poked his sides. Half panting after running from my locker.

"Hey, Y/n!" He said cheerfully. "Ready to go?" His smile wider.

"More than ready."

"Okay, let Edward take you." Edward was his car. 

"Wait! The park is not that far from here, so just let Edward stay at the parking lot for a while."

"I'm not taking you there. Just get in. Hop!" He pushed me lightly to the passenger seat.

We didn't talk much on the car. Actually, we were listening to his new playlist.

"Wait, it's Call Me Baby by EXO! You like them?" I exclaimed in excitement.

"Nah, I just found this song yesterday. And I thought it's a nice song. And kinda my song lately." He answered while nodding his head to the beat.

"Huh? 'Call me baby'? Which part is?"

"The title of course." He turned to me and smiled.

I still didn't get it. Hey, I wasn't pretending. I was such an airhead, so you know. I kept thinking and didn't realize,

"Earth to the moon, earth to the moon. Can you hear me?"

"Wh-what?" I gasped. He was so close. Too close to make me faint.

"We're here! Come on come on come on!" He was more excited than ever. I hopped off the car and followed him.

 

-GIT-

 

The sun was almost set. It's beautiful. I hadn't realized that we almost had all the rides. My feet were sore but it was more than worth it. Sehun was here.

"Let's ride ferris wheel!" He said. Pointing to the ride in front of us.

"But I want rollercoaster again!"

Rollercoaster was thrilling. And ferris wheel was kinda a boring ride, that's why it was the last ride we hadn't have.

"No. Buts," he grabbed my face and turned it to face him, "I have something to show you." He whispered while carressing my cheek.

I stunned. I would have a heart attack if he did it for the second time, fortunately, he didn't.

"Sehun, this is so boring." I whined.

"Just relax. Just wait for a few seconds," he patted my head, "I bet you will like it."

"Geez, what are you trying to sho-"

"Look!" He said turning me to face the beautiful scenery. Seoul, sunset. What's more beautiful than this?

I was too enjoying myself, "You like it?" He asked behind me hugging me slightly on the shoulders.

"No," I turned to face him, "I love it."

Damn my heart. It's beating faster than ever. The sun shone making his face more beautiful. Handsome. Perfection.

He was smiling almost reaching his ears. Gosh, it was the time when usually the guy kiss her girl. But I wasn't his. Not even close.

I only had the guts to hug him that time. But to my surprise, he held my neck and brought me closer to his face. Our lips almost touching. I didn't know what to do instead grabbing a fistful of his uniform.

Man. You're gonna be the death of me.

"Sehun,"

"Shh," he closed his eyes. And our lips met.

I. Must. Be. Dreaming.

This was so unreal. But I knew it wasn't. His lips were soft and undeniable. Carressing mine softly. I would cry over the scene, but I couldn't. I was lost in his kiss.

He pulled off, catching breath. It was a breathtaking kiss. My first kiss.

He was about to say something. But I was afraid that he regretted it. From what I saw, I didn't see a glint of happiness in his eyes.

I knew it was a mistake

"Hey, come on." I said. I tapped his arm, signaling to get off the ride.

"Oh."

It was so awkward.

"Y/n, about the-"

"Let's go home, Sehun. I'm so tired." I felt bad for ignoring him. But I just couldn't take the rejection right now. I could never take it. At least not now.

"Okay." Was all he said.

It took several minutes to reach our houses. But he pulled over somewhere.

"It's not our houses, Sehun."

"I haven't heard your story yet. It's still early anyway," he tried his best to make a cheerful face. He was just sad that I had to face his rejection.

Sigh. This park. This swing. I used to play here with him years ago. He didn't have much time for me after dating many times.

I sat on the swing. He sat on right beside me.

He swung it back and forth, mimicking me.

"I'm a straightforward. So begin."

"What do you want to know? The most?"

"Well, lately you've been daydreaming. Even got a detention from Mr. Moon. Why? Something bother you?

"Actually, someone."

He faced me, "You have a crush don't ya? Ah, I knew it."

I looked up at him to see a hint of something? But no. There was nothing.

"Yeah," I exhaled, "Kind of."

"What is he like?"

"Charming. An angel."

"You must be really having a big crush on him." Playful tone in his words.

I snorted, "And one-sided." I tried cheering up myself.

"Did he say that?"

"No. But I knew it."

"Heyyy, you can't be like that. Don't make a conclusion. You have to know it from himself."

"I don't know. He was too kind for me. I don't deserve him."

He stopped my swing, "Hey look," tears started building in my eyes. Glad it was night so he couldn't see it.

"You deserve a good one. Don't talk like that. Someone told me, I'm a good person. Now I thought, she was better than good."

I giggled, "She was right, though," I was facing forward, even I saw into space. "He didn't notice me. Never. He was looking everywhere, and not me."

He scoffed, "Really? He really has to realize that you are there. What a stupid, to look everywhere and not seeing you in front of his damn face. Why doesn't he realize it anyway?"

"Why don't you?"

"W-what?"

"Have you even tried to do it?"

He tilted his face in confusion. His eyebrows furrowed while eyeing me.

"Lecture him to do such a thing? Really, Sehun?"

"What a-are you trying to say here?"

That's enough. I lost my patience.

"Dammit, Oh Sehun! The person we've been talking about is you!" Tears were streaming down my face.

"Y/n, I...I-"

"I know, Sehun. I knew it from the start. You don't love me back. Even you won't like me that way. You never will. That's why I was so sure that it was one-sided. When you kissed me there, I felt that you finally love me. Realizing I was there. And not searching for other girls. But when you pulled away, I saw regret in your eyes. And it makes me realize. I'm nothing more than your best friend." I finished my confession and ready to run. 

"Goodnight, Sehun." Then I ran away as fast as I could.

 

Present time.

I was still sobbing. I didn't want to look at my face in the mirror. Puffy eyes and red face. Uglier than pigs. I knew now why Sehun did call me that.

My head was aching so badly. I cried too much for him. I knew, nothing could change all of this. But I just wanted to let out my frustration right now.

Knock knock.

"Honey, someone want to see you." My mom said from the other side of the door.

Don't tell me it's him.

I really didn't want to see him now. I didn't answer her. I turned to face the window with my back facing the door.

The door was opened. I shut my eyes immediately. And it was closed quietly.

I heard footsteps approaching me and,

"Y/n..."

Sehun.

"Hey, bae." He whispered in my ear. I shivered from head to toes.

"Asleep, huh? Alright," he shifted on my bed, I thought he was about to leave but he did the opposite.

He crawled behind me and hugged me on the waist securely. He breathed, "Goodnight," he kissed my cheek, "Love you."

5 minutes.

10 minutes passed.

30 minutes. He hadn't left. I couldn't breathe if he kept this position until morning.

I gave up.

"Sehun," trying to get out of his embrace.

"I'm sorry," he didn't budge and hugged me tighter than before.

"What are you doing? It's late. You should go home," I changed the subject.

"No. Hear me out. Please, just a-"

"Thanks." I turned to face him and smiled.

His mouth was slightly agape.

"Thanks for today. You make me so happy today," I got up. "We haven't eaten. Do you want some? I'll go get it." I stood up.

"Y/n," he pleaded. "Don't ignore me ple-"

"Ah! I just remembered that you want me to cook for you. A lot. I'll make then. Come on, I have-"

He grabbed me by shoulders, just a moment before I turned the door knob.

"Listen!" Anger was written all over his face.

"WHAT?!" I shouted back. "I don't need to listen to you!"

He softened, "Y/n, sorry. I just- just-" he heavily sighed and cupped my face, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"What do you expect me to say?" I paused when my tears started to building, "What are you gonna say after I spill my idiot confession?"

I loosened his hands from my face, "I knew, Sehun. And I know. That you will never return my feelings. You always say we're best friends. You never say other than that. What do I expect from you then?" My voice cracked, "That you will never set your eyes on me forever? I can't think about it when I always want you to stay by my side."

He led me to the bed and sat me down. When he was about to say something, I cut off.

"I'm not done yet. Let me finish it," I straightened up my position. "I made this mistake. Big mistake between us. So let me fix it. I won't let my feelings break our friendship apart. So, I will put it aside. But I need some times."

"No, you don't."

"Okay," my cheeks are now wet from the tears. "I- I'll try as soon as I ca-"

"You know what?" He said half shouting, I flinched and looked up to him.

"Huh?" I bluntly said.

"You talk to much." With that, he pulled my face and kissed me forcefully but the sweetness was there.

I'm so dead.

I didn't want it to end. I pulled him by the neck, kissing back. He shoved his hands around my waist.

Didn't care if it was a mistake for him, for me, or us. I just wanted to feel his lips more and prolonging the scene.

I pulled back. Not that I wanted, I needed air.

He placed his forehead on mine.

"Let me talk."

"No." I was still afraid.

"Bae..." he whined.

"Fine." I closed my eyes, ready for the painful rejection.

"When I kissed you at the amusement park,"

"You regret it, don't you?"

"Damn, woman. Let me finish it," he curled his index finger on my hair, played with it.

"I've been wanting to take you there. Show you how beautiful the scenery from there. Then I kissed you," he exhaled, "That was the most part I've wanted to do for so long."

"With your.. girlfriend?"

"No. With you."

I'm so dead. (2)

More than dead.

"I don't get it." I said, afraid he meant other thing.

"You've been my best friend. We've been together since our first year. I was looking around to find my Ms. Right and claim her as mine. But, I'm so stupid. I didn't take a look at someone who always by my side. Taking care of me, comforting me. Loving me."

He held both of my hands.

"I'm sorry for making you suffer in this alone. I'm sorry that I haven't realized it sooner. I'm sorry for making you think that I don't like you," he sighed. "It's been you."

My heart is going to explode.

"I've found the one I want and need. It's not Hyojin or else. It's you. I like you," he held my chin, "I love you."

I was lost in his eyes. I couldn't say anything.

"Slap me." I thought too loud.

He chuckled, "You're not dreaming."

"Don't wake me up. Mommy, please, don't wake me up."

"Haha. You're so adorable." He pulled me into a hug. "Let's sleep."

"Huh?!" I quickly sat when he was laying me down.

"I asked your mom for me to sleepover cause I said we've already planned it. And she said yes."

"What?! You! How dare you, Sehun!" Slapping his arm playfully. I laughed when he crossed his arms to defend himself from my attack.

"Kids, don't be too loud!" My mom shouted from downstairs.

"Stop it, stop it!" He tried stopping me to slap him.

I giggled over the fact like I was the happiest person in the universe. We sat there for a while, staring at each other, smiling to each other before he pecked me all of sudden.

"Goodnight!" He quickly said and pulled up the blanket to cover his body until the top of his head.

"Goodnight," I crawled beside him under the blanket, "Sehun." I pecked him in return before staring at the ceiling.

"Come here~"

"Hm?" Snuggled on his chest was the best thing that ever happened.

"Since when?" He asked huskily.

Dang it, it echoed straight to my...

"Answer me~"

"Well," I pulled away to face-to-face with him, "When Mrs. Oh and her husband moved with their lovely son to beside my house?" I paused, "You?" Back to the previous position.

"Once I brought cupcakes to greet Mrs. Park's and her family?"

"Wow, so you-" I widened my eyes, "Since what?! That was a long time ago!"

"Yeah," he kissed my crown, "And I've been a real moron for not realizing it earlier. You've gone through tough times without me."

"Hey, it's okay. We're-" I don't know how to say it.

"We?"

"We're... fine now?" I said uncertainly. Were we still best friends now? Or more?

He hummed, "What do you want us to be?"

"Huh? I- I don't quite know."

"Let's try something new."

I sighed, "I don't know, Sehun."

"You don't believe me then?" He quite disappointed maybe, I blushed.

"No! Not at all. I do believe you. But I'm still afraid that someday you will realize that I'm not who you want. Not what you expect like what you said. Only thinking about it, frightens me." I tried my best not to give him a hint of sadness, but maybe I failed.

"Shhh," he carressed my soft hair, "Don't you ever think about it again. Being with you for years is enough for me to know what kind of girl you are. And I'd like to be with you for the rest of my life to know you more and more. Give it a try with me. Please?" He pleaded.

"How could I refuse your plea? Tell me." I mentally put my hands up.

"I only know one thing," he leaned over to my ear and whispered, "You couldn't."

"Be mine, Y/n? I know I couldn't be more romantic than this. This isn't even romantic anyway," he said the last sentence under his breath. "But I truly believe that this is from the bottom of my heart. And-"

"You know what?" I looked up.

 

Silence.

 

"You talk too much." And I shut his mouth with mine.

"It's a yes, then?" He grinned widely.

"Unless you don't-"

"Big no!" He hugged me like a pillow, "Now sleep."

"I love you, Sehun."

"I do love you more, Y/n. More than you ever think."
