The Heart's Choosing

After I finished using Chunji as a napkin, we went to the rooftop.
I didn't feel like going to class after what happened.

"Chunji, you don't have to stay here." I finally let out, after a few minutes of silence.
"I don't want you missing class because of me."

He threw his arm around my shoulders, and pulled me in.
"Soojin, what kind of boyfriend would I be if I left my girl out here, all alone, after going through a second heartbreak?"
"And by the same person, at that."

I let out a faint chuckle.
"It wasn't a second heartbreak."

Then I looked down at hands, fiddling with my fingers.
"The first one never healed..."


"Ouch." he said.


I looked over at him.


"I guess that means I haven't been doing my job."

I immediately realized what I said.

"No! That's not what I meant!" I quickly tried to recover.


He chuckled.

"It's okay, Soojin."

He looked down and mumbled.
"I know my place."

Chunji...

"Hm?" I asked, pretending not to hear.

He looked up at me and smiled.

"Nothing." He said, extending his hand out to me.
"Come on, we'll be late for class."

I groaned.

"Do I have to go?"

"If you want to let him win." He said.

Sigh

"You're right." I admitted.
"Plus, I have you with me."

He smiled and grabbed my hand.

"That's right."


And with that, we were off to hell again.

 



On our way to class, I felt... weird.

For some odd reason, I kept making eye contact with everyone I passed in the hallway.


"Uhm.." I mumbled.

Chunji turned his head to me.

"Hm?"

I gave him a puzzled look.
"Is it just me, or is everybody staring?"

He looked around.

"Hmm.. you're right." He said nonchalantly.

Sigh. Of course he wouldn't have noticed.

*DING*

"Mm? It's from L.Joe hyung." Chunji said, looking at his phone.

His expression fell when he opened the text.

"Wha-"

*DING*

I stopped, and reached for my phone in my skirt pocket.

"What the ..." I said, looking at my phone screen.
"How the hell does Ji Yeon have my number?

As I looked up to Chunji, he snatched my phone.

"What the hell?" I said, irritated.
"If you wanted to use it so badly, all you had to do is ask!"

He looked down to me and grabbed my hand.
"Soojin-ah, we should go-"

*SMACK*

My right check had a familiar burning sensation.

"YOU !"

"Ji Yeon!" Chyunji yelled, then cupped my face.
"Soojin, are you okay?"

I pulled his hands away from my face, and furiously turned to Ji Yeon.

"What the hell is your problem?!" 

"What's my problem?" She asked, practically yelling.
"So you're gonna act like you don't know? Do you think I'm ing stupid?"

She paused.

"Don't answer that last part!" She said, saving herself.


"Ji Yeon, what the hell are you talking about?!" I asked, ignoring her stupidity.


By this time, there was a crowd surrounding us.

"What's going on between you and JB?" She asked.
"Huh? You think you can do whatever you want around here?"

I was honestly confused.
What the hell is this chick talking about?


"Soojin!"

I saw JB Making his way through the crowd.

Oh great.

When he finally reached me, he grabbed my shoulders.

"Soojin are you okay??"

Whaa..?

I immediately pull his hands off of me.

"I'm fine." I said, turning to Ji Yeon.
"Her on the other hand, I'm not so sure. I think she's officially gone mad."

I heard her gasp.

"So I guess the rumors are true."

Rumors?

I looked at her questionably.

"What rumors?"

"Nothing." JB said, grabbing my arm, only to be pulled off by Chunji.

"You'll just make things worse." He said, then grabbed my hand.

Am I a toy to everyone today?
What the hell is going on? 


Then I remembered the text message I received.
Chunji didn't want to read it...
That's why he snatched my phone.

I quickly took my phone out Chunji's hand, and finally opened the text.

Someone took a picture of JB cupping my face.

I knew something bad would come out of that damn incident, but damn!
It's been less than an hour, and this has already been blown out of proportion.
Di these people not have a life?


"Seriously?" I finally say.

Jiyeon snickered.

"That's all you have to say!?" She yelled, furiously.

I looked over to her.

"Are you stupid?" I asked.
"Never mind."

"Soojin, I'm sorry.." JB apologized.
"This is my fault."

"Yeah, it is." I replied, coldly
"Now I have to deal with this ."

Why does this always happen to me?
I'm constantly being misunderstood by people, because of him.
No matter what our relationship is, he's stuck to me, dammmit.


"Soojin-" I cut JB off.

"Look, you people need to focus on your own lives." I addressed the crowd.
"Most of you aren't even passing all of your classes, yet you have time to start nonsense like this?"

I felt Ji Yeon trying to cut me off, so I quickly spoke again.

"All this is, is a rumor. Nothing more."

She let out a sarcastic chuckle.

"So then why the hell is he touching your face?"

"Look, Ji Yeon, I don't want your boyfriend." I said, irritated.
"I'm not trying to steal him from you, so don't worry. Just remember, JB and I's friendship is over four years old;
Way longer than the two of you have known each other. It's not uncommon to console a friend."

Thes I let out a small sigh.

"And I will not tell you what we were talking about. I'll leave that up to your imagination."

Hmph.

And with that I turned to Chunji, grabbed his hand, and drug him with me to our next class.

 


OKAY, SO I’M NOT SURE WHO TO END THE STORY WITH!
AT FIRST, IT WAS GOING TO BE JB, OF COURSE.
BUT THEN I DRUG CHUNJI IN HERE, AND NOW I DON’T HIM TO BE THE GUY WHO LOSES THE GIRL!

OMG OMG OMG

&& I DON’T KNOW IF THIS CHAPTER MADE SENSE.
FOR SOME REASON, WHEN I WRITE AND REALLY NEED TO EXPRESS SOMETHING, I FORGET MY ENGLISH.
I NEED TO READ A THESAURUS, DAMMIT. >.>;


P.S. I CHANGED THE TITLE TO THE STORY.
I SAW THAT THERE WAYYYYYY TOO MANY FICS UNDER “HELLO TO MYSELF”,
SO YEA.
I’M NOT ENTIRELY CONTENT WITH IT, BUT EH. LOL
