Chapter 3 : Final 

 

“Xander…” Junsu walked in and took a seat in front of Xander. The boy only gave a “what do you want” look and his expression seems to be emotionless.

 

“How are you feeling?” Junsu asked making Xander furrowed his eyebrow in confusion. What the hell is what he’s been thinking. He raised his eyebrow and asked

 

“What feeling?”

 

“I know that you’re jealous to see Ji Eun and Hyunseung so close to each other”

 

“What? Jealous? No way! If she wants to be with that boy, I don’t even give a damn”

 

“Stop acting so cool Xander. I know how you feels. It’s written all over your face. I can read you. You’re my friend Xander”

 

“Aishh! This is annoying!” Xander blurted out and covered his face with a pillow and Junsu just chuckled at Xander’s behaviour

 

******************************

 

I was walking to school with this jerk besides me -,- Or at least he’s not being idiot today and I wondered what’s got into him lately because he’s so quiet and timid. He just gave me that “what the hell” look whenever I was eyeing him. That made me giggled. He somehow looks kinda cute and maybe he’s starting to be nice and throw all the negative side of him. Maybe Poseidon has teached him a lesson that he should respect girls. xD

 

“Neh Ji Eun” he broke the silence

 

“What?” I replied without looking at him

 

“About..umm…Junsu…do you still…..have that slight feeling for him?” what?! he doesn't have another topic to talk about??? -,-

 

“huh?? Why suddenly? I…don’t know…he’s only sees me as his friend. So maybe I should just give up” I laughed nervously

 

“Are you sad?” Xander took my hand and grip it tight in his.. What’s wrong with this boy today?! Talking and behaving so nice towards me.

 

“Err….No….??” I questioned awkwardly.

 

We stayed like that. Xander didn’t let go of my hand. I can feel that there’s something in him when he’s holding me. It’s like some sincere feelings were formed and told me to accept him. What?! Accept who? No way! The devil and angel in my head kept fighting over each other and this cause a chaos in me, I really hate feeling like this.

 

“Ji Eun-noona!” I saw Hyunseung at the school gate, waving at me with a smile formed on his lips. I returned the smile and walked to him, pulling my hand off Xander. 

 

Author’s POV

Xander looked at the figures and fire started to heat in him. The pain once again his chest and thousand of knives being stabbed in his chest. He, without hesitation and twice thinking took his steps to the figures.

 

“We will be late” Xander said and grabbed on Ji Eun’s hand.

 

“Xander, can’t you see I’m talking to him” Ji Eun snapped

 

“Ji Eun, you’re my girlfriend, now let's go.” he pulled on her hand hard and it made her nearly fall

 

“Oh, so Xander-hyung is your boyfriend noona?” Hyunseung flickered his eyebrow

 

“Yes, and you have any problem with it?” Xander interrupted

 

“Haha, chill down hyung. It’s not like I’m going to steal her from you.”

 

“yeah whatever” Xander rolled his eyes and dragged Ji Eun away from that place. The girl who was confused by his sudden action stopped him

 

Normal POV

 

“Xander what the hell?!” I yelled

 

“I hate to see you with other guy!” he yelled back

 

“Why do you care huh?! You’re not even a real boyfriend to me”

 

“Aishh! This is annoying! Just, don’t get close to other guys” Xander can’t pull out the words that he wants to. He just don’t know how to put this. He afraid that I might be in shock like seeing a giant cat or something.

 

“I don’t understand you” with that I stomped to the class and left him there dumbfounded. I really don’t understand what’s with Xander lately. He’s been acting weird and trying to get my attention.

 

Xander’s POV

 

Ji Eun, if only I can pull out this words, If only I can tell you how sincere my feeling for you now. I am so sorry Ji Eun for all my idiot behaviour towards you before. Ji Eun, I don’t know how to say it but I can’t stand this. I can’t stand seeing you with another guy. I want you to be in my embrace. Ji Eun. Please listen to my heart

 

Normal POV

 

“Neh Ji Eun-ah, do you know about tonight right?” Junsu snapped as I was reading a “Harry Potter” book. I gave him a “huh?” look

 

“Oh about tonight? The prom night?” I asked closing the book and put it aside

 

“Yeah. So have you got your partner?”

 

“no I don’t”

 

“Xander can be.” Junsu smiled

 

“What?! No way! I don’t want him” I replied back furiously. Junsu chuckled and Xander appeared out of blue.

 

“Yah! Jerk why are you always appear out of blue like that?! You’re giving me a heart attack you know. Shesssh!”

 

“Shut up missy. It’s not like I’m here to see you anyway”

 

“Stupid moron jerk” I mumbled

 

“What was that missy?” he clenched his teeth

 

“Enough right now you guys. Haishh, still the old Ji Eun and Xander that I know. Can’t be help really. Neh, Xander how about this night?” Junsu changed his sight

 

“The prom night? How boring. I’m not going”

 

“Yahh! No way! You must go Xander!”

 

“what for? Wasting my times there? I rather sleep at home”

 

“useless jerk” I interrupted

 

“be quiet “girlfriend” he emphasized at the girlfriend’s word making me frowned

 

“You must go Xander .. please” Junsu pleaded him with puppy eyes. Xander who got disgusted by the look agreed. He can’t stands seeing his bestfriend pleading like that

 

“Okay, okay. I will go. Just don’t give that disgusting face. I feel like puking” Xander sighed

 

“Yay!” Junsu cheered

 

“I will see you guys tonight okay?”

 

“Wait, I didn’t even agree to go” I said

 

“No you MUST go. I don’t care. I want to see you tonight” Junsu grinned. Like he’s planning an evil plan or something. Junsu why are you so mysterious?

 

The Night

 

“Aishhh what’s taking so long that little missy?” Xander mumbled in frustrated.

 

“Relax she will show up soon” Junsu patted his friend’s shoulder

 

“I really hate waiting for people like this”

 

“Sorry, I’m a bit late” heard a voice of the girl. The both guys turned to look to who it was and by their surprised it was me and their jaw dropped and eyes widen like they just saw a ghost or something.

 

“What the hell with that face guys?” I asked

 

“Omg Ji Eun, you’re so….pretty!” Junsu exclaimed and kissed my cheek. I can felt my cheek burned from the kiss.

 

“Hehe thanks Junsu”

 

Xander’s POV

 

She’s…really…..beautiful. Like an angel with her silky hair fall onto her shoulders and the white dress that she's wearing. Made her looks like a bride. My heart started to thump so fast and this weird feeling once again appeared when I saw her. I shook my head and said

 

“What taking so long missy? I hate waiting people like this you know?”

 

“Shut up jerk. I didn’t ask you to wait for me though” She replied coldly.

 

**********************************

 

Normal POV

 

“Ne guys, I have another request” Junsu said with a cheerful tone making me frowned. I don’t like his whatsoever request

 

“What now Junsu?” Xander asked uninterested 

 

“I wanna se you guys dance together. Neh?? Can?? Please….” He pleaded

 

“No way!” both of us said in unison but Junsu didn’t bother at it. Instead he pushed us to the dance floor where all the couples were dancing. Junsu mouthed “have fun” and chuckled

I really wanna go away from here so my foot took it steps but then a hand pulled on mine and caused me to stop my movement.

 

“What the hell Xander?”

 

He didn’t answer even one word. Instead he just pulled me to the dance floor and started to get into the rhythm. I don’t know why, my body seems like to move by itself and I followed him. I don’t even know that I can dance. Xander didn’t even say a word but he just stared in my eyes. Deep in my eyes. His hand was on my waist and the other held my hand. I was so close to him and I felt that my cheeks started to blush as red as a tomato and so I did. I tried to hide my face from him.

 

“Ji Eun, you are so pretty” I heard him. Wait am I misheard it? He just told me that I am pretty.

 

“What?” I questioned, making sure he’s real with his words

 

“You are so pretty tonight. How come I didn’t notice it before?”

 

Okay now this boy really is weird. His brain being flipped upside down again? Or Junsu gave him some pills that can make him forget about his maniac attitude?

 

“Er…thanks..you’re not bad looking yourself too” I blushed and said with a low voice

 

Xander released my hand and caressed my cheek. He got a soft hand though. He looked straight in my eyes and then….I felt something was on my lips. He’s…kissing me?!! OMG! My first kiss! Being stole my someone who I hate the most! I quicken realized that and push him off me. What the hell is wrong with this boy anyway? He’s seriously have been acting so weird and I kinda feel uncomfortable with him now. Actually I miss the old him. I miss to have a fight with him but now it’s not the same. It’s like he’s trying to hit on me or something.

 

“Sorry Xander…” I bit my lip

 

“I’m the one who should be apologizing. Sorry I shouldn’t do that”

 

Omo! For the first time ever in my whole life, I heard Xander apologizing to me. Is this some kind of dream or what? If it’s a yes please wake up. But it’s not

 

*********************************

 

It’s almost 2 months and I inhaled in relieved because this act going to end soon. But there’s one thing that is not right between me and Xander. After the night, or should I say after the kiss, I’ve been avoiding him and I can’t bear looking at his face for once. I don’t know what’s with my heart. There’s a feeling that tells me to accept him and there’s a feeling that tells me to just ignore him. My feelings were mixed up and I don’t know what should I do. Am I falling for him now? Am I in love with Xander? I let out a sigh and just continued my walk. Didn’t know where the heck I am heading but I don’t give a damn about it. As long as I can tranquil my mind and erase all this nonsense. 

 

But right then, my steps stopped as I saw him. Yes Xander. He was there by his locker. And he somehow noticed me and I turned around. I ran away from him. Why is this? Why am I always doing this? I’m avoiding him again. Xander yelled and ran after me.

 

“Hey Ji Eun! Wait up!”

 

I ignored his call. My body instruct me everything. My feet moved by itself. But Xander somehow managed to catch me up and he pulled on my arm causing me to turn and look at his face. He looks…like there’s a pain in his eyes. Xander are you hurt?

 

“Ji Eun, why you’re always avoiding me?” he asked and I looked away

 

“Nothing” is all I can said

 

“Lie, there must be something. Is it about the kiss? If it’s a yes, I am really sorry Ji Eun, I just..I don’t know why. I can’t control myself. My body moves by itself. And I was shocked too. Sorry Ji Eun”

 

I stayed silent. I didn’t bother myself looking at his face.

 

“It’s okay. All This going to end soon” I snapped. I can’t believe that I said that. Deep in my heart, I don’t want it to end. But this is just a fake anyway. Ughh what is wrong with me?!

 

“sorry I need to go” I felt something in my heart. Sadness? Anger? I don’t know. Tears started to formed in my eyes and I walked a away from him. Why I’m feeling so sad? What has gotten into me?

 

“Don’t go away from me again. Please” I felt someone was behind me. Embracing me from behind. Wait, Xander was hugging me?

 

“Xander…” my voice got lower and I almost choked on it. My tear fell down onto my cheek.

 

“Ji Eun, I can’t stand this anymore. I can’t hold it any longer. I want to say this even after this you will truly hate me but I want to. Ji Eun, I love you. I love you so much. I realized that I can’t be apart from you. I realized that I have a feeling towards you and I want you to know that this feeling is not a lie. I’m sorry for my behaviour before.”

 

Xander blurted out. Wait, was he really serious? His words were said with whole hearted? Or he’s just trying to fool me? It’s Xander anyway. But some parts of me told me to believe him and told that all of his words were sincere but I’m still not sure. Who knows that he’s just playing around. And with him hugging me like this, I felt my tears didn’t want to stop. I was somehow….happy and sad….We’re so close.

He turned me around and held on my shoulders.

 

“I really love you Ji Eun.” He said wiping away my tears.

 

“And I don’t want this to end. Though it’s a fake but I can feel something different through our fake relationship”

 

“stop making me crying Xander. I love you too idiot” I smiled weakly but still teary. Aishh I look awful. I finally realized my feeling. I realized that I am falling for him. I’m in love with him all this time and my heart has opened for him. To accept him. 

 

With that he hugged me tightly and I can felt the joyness in him. I shared the feeling with him. Finally there’s a miracle that changes the both of us. But it’s an unexpected situation.

 

“Xander you jerk, I can’t breath”

 

“Haha, sorry missy” he released me

 

“Stop calling me that” I pouted cutely

 

“No, it’s my nickname for you” he stuck his tongue out

 

“stupid”

 

 “Aww!!! I saw that!!!!” someone appeared out of blue and I exactly know who it was. It was Junsu.

 

“Finally! My plan succeded!” He cheered

 

“What plan?” Both me and Xander asked in unison

 

“I planned on getting you guys together and it's worked out very well" He grinned like a little kid who just got his Christmas present. So this is all his plan? Aishh!

 

“Whatever Junsu, but we’re official now” Xander said making me blush.

 

“Aww my Xander and Ji Eun is now a couple. I am so proud. You guys grow up so fast” he faked cried, wiping his eyes and coughing like an old folk

 

“What are you? My mother?” Xander got pissed off by Junsu’s childish behaviour . ‘

 

************************

 

“Hey! Xander! Give me back that! You don’t have a permission to read my diary.!” I chased him inside the class and the others just shook their head looking at how childiish both of us were

 

“No! I want to!” He grinned and flip on one page and something fell down. He took it and it was a picture of him.

 

“Ahh! No! don’t look at that!” I somehow managed to seize it from him and he just smirked there

 

“What you idiot?!” I asked coldly

 

“Nothing.” Hand in his pocket, still smirking

 

“Aishh. I really hate you Xander” That was said but it’s not what I mean anyway

 

“And I love you too” he said making the whole class cheered and I just blushed. 

 

-End- 

 

Yay! it has ended. *wipe tears* finally . Sorry it's kinda ne? haha XD
