Just Like How We Met

Only Tears

written by nihkchar


Chunji's POV

"Can you explain to me why you have a box of blocks?" L.Joe's eyes landed on the block box I took out of the trunk. We were headed up to Raerim and Seulmi's apartment.

As we walked up the steps, I explained it to him. "I read online that some things you can do to help a person with amnesia is to help jog their memory by either repeating or reinacting a significant event in their life. So I was thinking if I reinact how Seulmi and I met in the first grade, she'll remember." I smiled widely, proud of my new found knowledge. Although, L.Joe just looked at me weirdly. "Do you believe everything on the internet?"

I frowned a bit as I stopped in front of Seulmi and Raerim's door. "You should at least try it or Raerim will completely forget everything you two had and will move on to that Changjo guy." I looked at him to see his upper lip twitch. I mentally shook my head. L.Joe, you gotta realize your feelings for Raerim sooner or later, or you'll regret it~

I knocked on their door and waited for someone to open it. Once we heard the click, the door opened to reveal Seulmi. I smiled at her. "Annyeong~" She smiled back at me. Just you wait, Seulmi~ You shall remember me when we pick up these blocks.

"Oh Chunji... L.Joe... You're here," her gaze dropped down to the box of blocks in my hands. "With blocks...?" She looked back up at me. "Wae?"

I smiled wider due to my over excitement. "I am determined to help you remember me. So let's start by building blocks!" 

As Seulmi stepped aside to let us in, we took off our shoes and headed to the living room. "How is building blocks going to help me remember?" She asked. I turned around to face her. "It's how we first met. Now here, take this." I handed her the box and she took it. "Now, spill it."

She looked up at me. "Mwo?"

"Spill it," I repeated. "Dump it all over the floor."

"Ohk...?" She hesitantly turned the box over and all the blocks fell to the floor, scattering everywhere. I smiled bigger as I clasped my hands together. "Perfect. Now pick them up."

"E-excuse me? You told me to drop them and now you want me to pick them up?" Seulmi asked. I nodded my head. "Neh. Just trust me." I watched as she puffed up her cheeks and bent down to pick up the blocks.

 

L.Joe's POV

I watched as Chunji instructed Seulmi to pick up the blocks. Way to treat a lady, hyung~ My head turned as I heard a bedroom door open and close. Raerim stepped into the living room. "What's with the mess?" She asked as her eyes scanned the floor of blocks. "Why are there blocks all over the floor? Aren't you guys a little too old to play with blocks?"

Chunji looked back at Raerim. "Well aren't you a little too old to still be watching Pokemon?"

Raerim's eyebrows furrowed. "Hey. Pokemon is forever! You can never be too old to watch Pokemon." 

I laughed at her response. Even if she doesn't remember, she's still the same old Raerim. I then followed her as she walked over to their fridge and opened it. I saw one jello cup and the shelf and decided I should give Chunji's strange method a try. I ran up and snatched the last jello cup before she could even reach out to it.

When I grabbed it, she quickly stood up. "Ya! Give it back. That was the last one." I stuck my tongue out at her like I did in first grade. "Mehrong~" I watched as she blankly stared back at me and blink a couple of times before saying, "whoa... Deja vu..."

My eyes grew wide. "Mwo? Deja vu?" I looked at Raerim and then to Chunji. "Hyung!" I called at and ran to him. "Hyung, did you hear that? Raerim had deja vu when I stole the last jello cup again."

Raerim followed me to the living room. "Again? When have you ever stole my jello cups?"

"He's stolen your jello cups countless of times, but the first time was in first grade," Chunji said. 

"First grade?" Raerim asked. "What happened in first grade?" She turned around to face me and I explained it to her.

 

*flashback*

It was just an ordinary day at school and right now it was my favorite subject. Lunch. I stood in line as I waited with my tray to get my lunch. As I slid my tray across the silver bar, scanning the table to see what was for lunch. They were giving out some kind of pork. I looked down the table more and met with some salad. I made a face. Seriously, who serves vegetables to first graders? I continued going downt the table when my face brightened at the sight of a jello cup.

I reached my hand out and at the same time another hand reached out and touched mine. I looked up to see a girl with long brown hair and big eyes, staring at me. Even if you're cute, this is my jello cup. I grabbed the jello cup and walked away.

"Ya!" I heard her shout at the back of my head. Then I heard footsteps and someone put their hand on my shoulder and spun me around. I was met with that girl again. "What do you want?" I asked. She pointed down at my hand that was holding the jello cup. "Ani," I said. "I got this first." She puffed up her cheeks and crossed her arms. "Didn't your mother ever teach you 'ladies first?'"

"Well you're not a lady. You're a girl." I turned around and walked over to my best friend, Chanhee at the lunch table. To my surprise, she followed me. "You could at least share, you know."

"Why would I? You have cooties~"

Chanhee looked at her and then back at me, trying to hold back his laughter. "Who's your new friend, Byunghun?"

I opened my mouth to tell him to ignore her, but she spoke up.

"I'm Raerim. What's your name?"

"Chanhee."

"Ya~" I said and turned to her. "You ask for his name, but not mine? Don't you wanna know the name of the guy who stole your beloved jello cup? What's wrong with you?"

She scowled at me. "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you? Stealing things that rightfully belongs to me. You're lucky I'm not going to sue you!"

*end of flashback*

 

Chunji started laughing. "And that was the start of a beautiful friendship."

Raerim stared at me in disbelief. "That is just pure evil!" She held a hand over her heart. "My heart breaks just hearing about that." I rolled my eyes at her.

Seulmi then stood up with the box now full of its contents. "Ya, Chunji. Here~" She said as she handed him the box. Chunji looked down at the box and then up at Seulmi again, starting to panic. "Wait. What? No! Why'd you pick them up?!" 

"You told me to!"

"I was supposed to help you pick it up," he shoved the box back at her. "Do it again. Spill it."

Seulmi's mouth hung open. I tried hard not to laugh. She puffed her cheeks up and took the box. "You know what?" She turned the box upside down and all the blocks fell out. "You pick them up!" She handed him the empty box and made her way to the couch, carefully avoiding the mine field of blocks.

"But Seulmi," Chunji pouted. "We're supposed to pick them up together. Like in first grade. Seulmi-ah~" Seulmi crossed her arms and ignored Chunji. "C'mon, Seulmi. Help me out." She still ignored him. "Please, Seulmi?" He bent down in front of Seulmi and mustered up all his aegyo as he clasped his hands under his chin.

She turned to him and bit down on her lip before sighing. "Fine! Help you." She went to pick up the blocks with Chunji. Raerim from the side, frowned at Seulmi. "How come when I pout you don't do what I say?"

 


nihkchar: so who else saw L.Joe's abs from Teen Top's Rising 100%? did you cry like I did? ;w; ahaha~ ohk, I didn't actually cry, but I still died... and then revived to stare at the picture again... (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ /flips table ... cannot handle the hotness!

cheesebloo: I honestly thought he wouldnt have abs because he's really skinny & I'm like 8 pounds heavier then he is... makes me wonder who a skinny guy like him can have abs like those... makes me cry because I stared at it for... a long while... ahhh... yeah ~
