Till i reach your star
Ellie POV
I wish i could hide behind my sandwich or something. I grabbed hwan's shirt and said: let's leave!
" huh? Leave? Why? " he asked sheepishly.
I didn't know what to say. I didn't want him to get weird ideas. I took a fast look at their direction and due to my good luck they seemed to be heading to the bar. I sighed.
Hwan was staring at me with worried eyes.
I smiled at him and said: nothing... i just saw jongin there and i thought it would be awkward.
Hwan turned to look at where i pointed and then looked back at me and said: heol! Nina is with him.
I blinked: who is nina???
Hwan took a sip of his drink and said: she is one of the sm dancers. Well the best one..she is half korean.
I murmured: i see...
Hwan didn't say anything else and i hated him for that! I mean who's gonna feed my curiosity if you are not giving me more information??? Well whoever she was.she was a dancer so practically she was his type.Good for him.
I looked at hwan and said: so can i have that drink now???
Hwan's eyes sparkled: wooow you changed your mind! Don't worry I'm not gonna get you drunk and i will carry you home if needed.
I chuckled: why do i find that even scarier?
Hwan glared at me: stop thinking of me as such a jackass.
I smiled: i was only joking idiot.
Hwan passed me my drink and said: yeah you better cause i have a fragile heart.
I chuckled again trying to ignore the fact that jongin and his friend were just a few steps away and in a second or two some one's gonna say ...
-"hey there "
Hwan turned to look at her.as i smiled ear to ear and followed his actions.
Nina shook hwan's hand and said: what you doing here??? Date or something??? She wiggled her eyebrows playfully.
Then she looked at me.
-hey i know you! You are jongin's manager.
I smiled at her and said: yeah...
She had a cute accent.And a perfect body...everything was just perfect!
I looked at kai who was standing next to her with his arms crossed on his chest. It was weird that he hasn't spoke a word yet.
Hwan put his hand on my back and said: yaaa kim jongin! You can't leave me alone with your manager ,can you?
Jongin shrugged: i had no idea you guys will be here.
Nina nodded: yeah it was my idea to come here! Although it's my first time here.somebody recommended it.
I stared at my hands. I was feeling extra awkward and self conscious. Comparing to her i looked like a ...what the ellie why are you even comparing yourself???? i shouted at my inner self for this stupidity.
"So you okay with it??" Hwan asked me.
I stared at him with a confused expression. I had no idea what they talked about.
I said: about what??
Hwan chuckled and hit me gently on the forehead. "Going upstairs and sitting on the tables all together " he said.
Oh hell no. I don't wanna come.please don't make me. But i couldn't say that out loud! Could i? So i smiled again and said: yeah! Why not? I was putting quite a show tonight!
Hwan stood up and chanted: then let's go!
I grabbed my purse just before hwan grabbed my wrist dragging me along. Nina and kai followed us. Hwan pulled me closer and murmured: let's pretend we are lovey dovey tonight.
My eyes went wide. I pinched his arm and said: don't start it again!
Hwan rolled his eyes and said: "i mean what's the harm? You know nina has the hugest mouth this will help me alot.People would think I have a girlfriend and finally let me be. No one will steal me away from you! We both win! " He winked at me.
I chuckled: " god please somebody come and steal him away."
"yaaa you are breaking my heart." He pouted.
I laughed: as if you have a heart!
Hwan put his arm around my shoulder and said: so what you say princess???
I took a deep breath.well everyone already thought this is date.And for some unknown reasons i felt like having hwan clinging to me right now is not the worst idea...i mean he liked me for who i was. Although i didn't even like myself.
I smiled at him: ok then...but let's not go over board.
He winked: deal!
For a second i felt so bad casue it was like i was using him to distract myself.But well it's not like I'm gonna the life out of him or anything and he suggested this himself. I calmed myself down and smiled at hwan as he pulled a chair out for me.we all sat down and now kai was in front of me. I grabbed my purse and brought my phone out. Heol! Baek has called me like 3 times. I texted him under the table.
-what is it? Sorry it's really loud in here i didn't hear my phone-
Then put my phone on the table and looked at others. It was an awkward silence and no body seemed to be willing to break it. I sighed and leaned back looking at hwan. I really hoped he would say something.
-hey guys! Let's play something.
I turned to look at nina who was looking at us suggestively waiting for a response.
"Play what?" Jongin asked.
Nina paused for a sec and then said: how about " i never" ??? I love that game.
I sighed. Games like this always made me feel uncomfortable especially when i was with people who i am not that close with.
Hwan: yeah i agree let's play.you ok with it? He asked me.
I didn't want to seem uptight so i just nodded.
Nina looked at jongin and said: what about you? You ok?
Jongin shrugged and murmured: whatever... let's just go with it.
Nina: cool! So we need to order something....
Then she waved for a waiter and a few seconds later a bottle was placed on out table with four small cups. N
