Loving you from a distance

Chapter 26

"You've got the wheel of fortune, too?" I looked at him
"eem yes" he scratched his head he looked so nervous
"That just proves it!" I yelled at Donghae
He looked surprised "proves what?"
"That it's just a bunch of lies fortune telling is not real"
He chuckled "well to you I guess"
"I think we made a big mistake coming here" I told Donghae
"What makes you say that? Its fun here" he smiled
"Well I only see couples here it makes me feel awkward" I told him
He laughed "we ARE a couple according to the old teethless lady"
"Oh you're right about that" I laughed

I heard a loud noise and I looked at the sky I saw fireworks "wow beautiful look Donghae" I pointed at the sky
"Yes it is beautiful" Donghae looked at the sky
"Thank you for bringing me here Donghae I had a lot of fun today"
Donghae looked at me "you're welcome" his face turned bright red
I looked around and saw the couples around us kissing; oh my God we're totally in the wrong place
Donghae put his hands on my face and kissed me!

What is he doing? I thought, I pushed his hands away and slapped his cheek hard
I ran away and left him there he's so stupid
My heart was beating so fast I thought it was going to jump out, I stopped running to catch my breath
Donghae came and pulled my wrist "let's go home"
"I'm not going home with you"
"Stop being childish you'll get lost if I left you alone"
"Just stop it stop hurting me I really hate you " I told him while my tears were rolling down my cheeks, Donghae looked at me silently

I sat in the bus stop's bench I was still crying I always thought that my first kiss would be with Siwon but that jerk Donghae just ruined it I will never forgive him
The bus came I went in and sat in front while Donghae sat in the back, after 2 long hours the bus stopped and I got off quickly I didn't want to see Donghae at all
I really hated him he went too far with his acting this time
I reached home I was so tired I slept as soon as I lied on my bed

I woke up in the morning feeling good but as soon as I remembered Donghae's kiss my mood just got gloomy that stupid jerk I hate him
I looked at my phone I had a text message

Hey all,
Don't forget my birthday party today
I love you all
Jihoon :)

"How can I forget!" I threw my phone on the bed
Things just can't get any worse!
Oh wait they can! How am I supposed to write 5 good things about Donghae for my project?
I could think of many bad things about him but I can't think of one good thing about him, he's never been nice to me, has he?
I started thinking and writing some stuff on a paper

The next day, I came to the classroom and saw Donghae sitting back on his usual seat away from me, and Eunhyuk was back in his seat next to me
"Hi Sungra did you have a nice weekend?" Eunhyuk smiled
"It was horrible" I glared at Donghae who was looking at a book
"Why? What happened?" Eunhyuk looked surprised
"Long story" I sighed "did you finish your project?" I asked him
"Yes" he took out a paper from his folder
"Oh let me see" I looked at his paper
"5 good things about Hara:
1.She is beautiful
2.She never gets mad
3.She is sensitive
4.She cares about animals
5.She is so gorgeous"
"Oh my God Eunhyuk do you like her?" I stared at him
"em….i…oh…am…"
"Oh you really like her don’t you?" I smiled "that's so sweet"

Jihoon and Siwon came in together I looked at them but they seem kind of different, they would normally hold hands but each one went to their place without looking at each other, did something happen between them?
Jihoon went outside the classroom but Siwon didn't follow her, these two used to be inseparable! I looked at Siwon and wondered
"Oh Sungra" Eunhyuk whispered "Sungmin was at Jihoon's party last night he told me that Siwon and Jihoon had a big fight yesterday"
"Oh omo really?" my eyes twinkled
"Yea he says that Jihoon was really mad because Siwon didn't get her a gift"
"He…he didn't get her a gift?" I asked
"Siwon thought that she wasn't a materialistic girl that cared about gifts he thought that she was really deep that she only wanted him to be there with her but she was so mad at him she said that he embarrassed her in public and she called him cheap"

I couldn't believe what I just heard!
Siwon actually did what I told him to that night!
You don't have to get her any present just having you there by her side having you there with her…smiling at her is the greatest gift!

I don't know how to feel right now, should I feel happy that they broke up?
Should I feel guilty that they broke up because of me?
All the students were gathered in the classroom and our teacher came in, he asked each pair to read their papers in front of everyone, Heechul and Jihoon were first,
Heechul started reading his paper " 5 things I like about Kim Jihoon by Kim Heechul, first, I like her hot temper, second I like her big feet, third I like-"
The teacher stopped Heechul "stop! I think we heard enough!" the teacher glared at Heechul
"Oh you didn't hear the good parts sir!" Heechul told the teacher
But the teacher asked Heechul to sit in his place
Jihoon held her paper and the teacher glared at her " I hope you wrote something better than Heechul"
"Oh sir mine cannot be compared to Kim Heechul's" she chuckled
Heechul gave her a death glare
"5 good things about Kim Heechul
1.Heechul is so brave he's not afraid of anything
2.Heechul likes to help others who are in need
3.He knows the true meaning of friendship"

Heechul's eyes got teary "that's so true"
"That's enough, excellent thank you Jihoon, and now leeteuk and Kangin" the teacher announced
I wasn't paying much attention as I was still thinking about Siwon, should I apologize to him? After all I'm the one who told him to do that but I can't apologize to him because I can barely speak when he's around and he never really spoke to me after that incident when I slapped Jihoon so I think he hates me now for sure, tears almost rolled down my eyes but the teacher interrupted my thoughts

"Sungra and Donghae " my heart beated faster I was so nervous I didn't know what to write about Donghae and he probably wrote something embarrassing about me.

The teacher asked me to read my paper first so I breathed deeply and started reading " 5 good things about Donghae
1.Donghae is a great guy who really cares about his friends
2.He always protects his friends
3.He is a cheerful guy who makes everyone smile when he's around
4.He always helps anyone in need
5.He has a good sense of direction"

"Ok that's good" the teacher smiled "and now Donghae let's hear what you have to say" the teacher looked at Donghae

It was Donghae's turn and he had a really tiny paper in his hand!
Is that his project? Is going to make fun of me?

Donghae looked at his tiny paper and started reading "the project was about finding 5 good things about your project partner, I thought a lot about it but I couldn't find only 5 good things about Sungra, because she had way more than 5 things that are good about her that they can't fit any page and they can't even be mentioned because I will forget some of them and that wouldn't be fair for her so I'd rather fail this project than write only 5 good things about her"

I was so shocked at Donghae that I couldn't fully comprehend what just happened! Why did he act that way? He is failing an easy project!
He never once got a grade lower than an A and now he wants to flunk an easy project on purpose has he gone insane?

The bell rang as soon as Donghae finished talking, Donghae left the classroom

He couldn't possibly mean all that could he? He went overboard with his acting this time!
I heard all the girls whispering about Donghae
"Has he gone mad?"
"Was that a confession?"
"He flunked a project just to prove his love"
That can't be true! Donghae doesn't love me! I went out looking for him I wanted to know why he did that
I looked around the hallways but I couldn't find him, the bell rang for the 2nd period to start, but then I saw him talking to 2 tall scary guys they looked like they were from the basketball team, I wanted to go straight and talk to him but I suddenly stopped when I heard my name
"So is it true Donghae that you're going out with that girl Sungra?" one of the guys asked him
"No it can't be true Donghae has a better taste in girls" the other guy laughed
"So tell me what do you see in her? She is just plain ugly"
Donghae punched the guy so hard in the face, the other guy ran away
Then Donghae grabbed the guy by his collar and pinned him to a classroom door to punch him again in the face but the guy ducked and Donghae punched the glass with his hand, glass shattered everywhere and landed on the ground Donghae's hand was bleeding, the guy looked at Donghae
"You're crazy" and he ran away

Donghae looked at his bleeding hand with despair, my heart just stopped when I saw him bleeding if anyone saw him like that he'd get in trouble
I ran to him "Donghae you should go to the nurse"
Donghae looked shocked he didn't expect me to see him
"I don't want to" he looked away
"Are you crazy? Your hand is bleeding too much"
"I don't care it doesn't matter to me anymore"
"But I care" I grabbed his other hand and dragged him to the nurse's office
The nurse wasn't there at the moment I'm sure if I left Donghae alone he'll just leave so I took out a first aid kit and I started taking off the glass pieces that were buried in his hand and wrist
As I looked at how badly his injury was tears just kept falling on my cheeks
"Why did you do this? You should've told them that we weren't a couple, why did you have to go through it?"
Donghae sat there looking at me silently; I wrapped his hands with bandages
"I don't think you can play basketball until you're hand fully recovers" I looked at his face and he had a small cut on his cheek " you have a cut on your face too" I touched his cheek but he removed my hand " I don’t care" He stood up

"what's wrong with you? Why are you acting so weird?" i looked at him

"I don't want to be your fake boyfriend anymore you should find yourself another guy because my heart can't take it I'm madly in love with you Sungra"

My eyes were open wide " W-what?"

"I love you I really love you I've loved you from the beginning Sungra couldn't you tell?"

I was too shocked to say a word

"Funny how everyone in school knows that I love you except you" Donghae looked away " I tried to show you my feelings a million times before but you never took them seriously "

"I…i…don't know what to say" my heart was pounding hard and I felt that it was going to explode
"You don't have to say anything I already know your answer" Donghae looked at his wounded hand and left me alone standing at the nurse's room.
