Chapter 8
Just Keep Swimming (Old Version)Nicole fell asleep for the rest of practice. She used one of Kris's jackets and his duffel bag as a pillow and blanket. He offered to take her home, but she refused, saying she wanted to go home with Chanyeol.
When it came time for them to leave, Chanyeol was too worn out to carry her, seeing as though he didn't want to wake her up. He asked Kai to carry ehr, knowing he wouldn't try to pull a flirty move because he already has a girlfriend. Kai lifted her as if she were as light as his jacket and carried her to the van waiting for them. He put her in the back stretched out so she wouldn't get too bad of a backache, before he, Chanyeol, and Sehun got in.
In a few short minutes, Kai and Sehun were dropped off. Chanyeol and Nicole lived about 15 minutes away from them, so Chanyeol was able to build up enough energy to carry her in once they arrived.
When he got out with Nicole in his arms, he somehow managed to get inside, seeing as though the door was unlocked. He walked in and immediately went to place her in her room. He knew she was a light sleeper, which surprised him that she hadn't woken up yet, so he very carefully put her blanket over her and tucked her in. Because she was already asleep, he took a chance at his gut instinct and kissed her lightly on the forehead. He felt a spark that made him shoot up again, quickly getting up to leave, his fingers touching his lips.
He shut her door and let her be taken in a dream land.

"Oh hey Nicole. What's up?" He asked.
"Nothing. You know, just the usual."
"Of course. So listen, I've been meaning to ask you....uh...ummm.."
"Yes?" Nicole got curious, knowing he got shy with this sort of thing.
"Um...well...what do you think of...her? Do you like her? Is she nice?"
Nicole's heart dropped. She had been waiting for the moment he would confess to her...but it seemed like it wouldn't come. Not with 'her' around.
"Oh. Um, I don't really know her. She's not in my particular friend group, so I don't know...sorry."
He just sighed.
"It's okay. She is different from you and your friends. Doesn't surprise me. Well anyway, sorry for bugging you. Bye!~"
She looked at him as he walked away, feeling that familiar heartbreak. Although this time, she wasn't so sure why. Last time, it was obvious. But not with him.
