Neighbors...

 

Doyeon had somehow gotten to the weekend. The week had been full of little remarks by her seatmates, mainly Jaemin. But it was finally Saturday. With that being said, Doyeon thought she'd be able to sleep in...but the sound of the piano flittered into her dream, then slowly started waking her. When she was awake enough to sit up, she turned her head every which way, looking for the cause of her disturbance. As she approached the doors to her balcony, it got louder and louder. Doyeon opened one of the doors and walked out. As soon as she did, she caught sight of her seatmate and neighbor. He looked up at the sound of her door opening, and seemed just as shocked. 

"That's your room?" He asked loudly. For the first time Doyeon realized how close her balcony went to the neighboring house. "Yeah," she was convinced that room was for storage since she'd yet to have seen anyone in it. "Is that your room?" She asked. Jaemin shook his head, standing up and walking to the window. "It's the music room." He leaned his head out of the window, craning his neck so he could get a better look behind Doyeon. "Your room looks nice, I haven't been in there in ages." His smile seemed almost wistful. Which caused her forehead to crease. He's been in here? "Why are you playing so early?" She asked, any form of curiosity leaving her voice as annoyance took over. "Because, I need to practice." A mischievous smile took over his lips, "I was actually thinking of taking a break, care to join me?"  

She immediately shook her head, "Nope, I'm good." His face fell into a pout. "Oh, come on! Have you even seen the town at all?" Doyeon twisted her lips, "No..." she wasn't going to cave so quickly though, "But that doesn't mean I want to see it with you." He rolled his eyes, "You know you aren't a very friendly person, but I'm sure we can get past that." This time it was Doyeon's turn to roll her eyes, "I'm going back to bed." She turned to leave but stopped when he spoke, "Come on! Just let me be a good neighbor and show you around." He told her, she noticed for the first time how pleading his voice sounded. She had absolutely no idea why he wanted to show her around town. And she still had half a mind to tell him to buzz off...but the other half of her did want to see the town. "Fine." She said begrudgingly, "Give me ten minutes." With that, she went into her room, slamming the door behind her.

Jaemin stood happily outside of his house, waiting for his neighbors arrival. She didn't even realize how big of a favor she was doing him. In all honesty, he didn't feel like walking around town, he was already drained from his argument with his parents this morning. But, anything sounded better than practicing the piano. And, he genuinely wanted to show his neighbor around. She seemed rather rough around the edges, but he had a feeling she was nice once you got to know her. She had a comfortable air about her, from the second he spoke to her he didn't feel like he had to be anything. Gosh, my own thoughts sound stupid. He chided. 

The sound of his neighbors front door drew his attention. A smile graced his lips as he pushed himself off of the wall, walking out to the sidewalk. Doyeon met him halfway, "Where are we going?" She asked, raking a hand through her messy hair. She had on a pair of

Chapter 41: Omg such a sweet update!! It’s so cute to see them go from liking each other to officially dating, the way the chapter started was so cute, and Jeno being happy for them <3 I really liked how you focused on the other characters too, especially Haechan whose my fave and Jisung (why is it so easy to picture him in the kind of dilemma) :P. One more chapter omg can’t wait hope it’s an epic ending <3

Chapter 40: Omg how can I be late to such a monumental chapter!! Honestly it wasn’t abrupt at all I was wondering when they would finally talk but this chapter was so sweet!! So glad that Doyeon realised her feelings and admitted them to herself as well as to Jaemin - and when they kissed *swoon* love the fluff. Also have I not payed attention all this time I had no idea Doyeon had a mother and sister - how bad of me if I forgot that detail. And 2 more chapters left omg sad but can’t wait <3

Chapter 39: Glad to know there are still a few more chapters until the end of the story - I’m not ready for it to end yet. They’ve all come so far now talking about university plans and whatnot. Also I love that Jeno is such a good friend still to both Doyeon and Jaemin. As for those two, they need to talk ASAP. “But Doyeon, she was what he needed. He couldn’t imagine not liking her now that he did” I love this line omg <3

Chapter 38: Omg I’m late but catching but up now your 2 latest chapters~~ I think you should definitely make a bonus chapter with the interviews because I love that Chenle is doing that. It fits into the story’s youthful vibe so well. As for other highlights of this chapter, Soeun is such an interesting character. Also Doyeon omg!! I’m glad Chenle asked her straight out, even if she denied it she was still put on the spot and it will make her realise her feelings quicker. Poor Jaemin who overheard though!!

Chapter 37: Yep, I definitely don’t see Jaemin getting jealous and walking away like his character. So glad you added the extra thousand words and made it turn out like this. Omg the emotions are so real, I really felt for Doyeon in this chapter. The poor girl doesn’t want to hurt Jeno but I’m glad he confessed and made her realise that she doesn’t see him that way - now she just needs to realise what she feels for Jaemin. And Jaemin needs to confess soon but not yet. Can’t wait for the next chapter, not enough Jaemin and Doyeon moments here so I need more hehe~ And I’m so sad that we’re in the final stages of the story :( I love this story so much what am I gonna do without your updates

Chapter 36: Omg it finally happened!! I feel so sorry for Jeno but wow I was really impressed by how he confessed he made it so genuine and impactful the poor boy, even though I’m team Jaemin I love how you portray Jeno. Hmmm that Soeun girl was interesting, that little moment between her and Jeno makes me think she could potentially heal his broken heart? And I am very much looking forward to the next chapter as I need more Jaemin and Doyeon moments - I wonder if he knew they went to the treehouse together? Thanks for your update and can’t wait for the next one!!! <3

Chapter 35: Omg I was thinking about your story earlier in the day how funny - and then you updated!! Just wanted to say again this is one of the best stories I’m curently reading; I love the positive and youthful vibe of the story, it really ignites a sense of hope and purity which is rare to find in fan fiction honestly. Omg I hope you can upload chapter 29 before the end of the week, that would really top my weekend hehe. Awww Mark and Mira are so cute - as soon as I saw her name I thought of Gugudan’s Kang Mina whom Mark is actually close with in real life~ not sure if there was any correlation but cute nonetheless. Poor Jaemin for not getting a seat next to Doyeon but he seems to have more game than Jeno anyway - glad to see that she’s starting to like him more. Looking forward to the school trip and more moments between them, and that upcoming scene you hinted at earlier that had to do with rejection :O Thanks for the update :)

Chapter 7: Omg skimming through past chapters because they feel so long ago compared to how much the story’s progressed!! I love the last line in this chapter intimating how Jaemin would fall for her in the future

Chapter 33: Thank you for your regular updates, always nice to read them ~ omg she finally read the letter!! Glad she found closure, also I love the dinner scene with the grandparents. Jaemin is so cute honestly, I love how you portray him here and how enamoured he is by Doyeon. Outside of this story I’d pick Jeno over Jaemin but within this story I’m Team Jaemin all the way hehehe I feel like he cares about her so much~ can’t wait for the senior trip <3
