The school bell rang and I packed my bag in record time.

"Jaekyung! I'll be going first! Bye!" I shouted over to Jaekyung, who was still packing her bag and walked off without waiting for her reply. I brisk walked to the rooftop, and my legs were aching as there were god-knows how many flights of stairs you had to climb before reaching the rooftop. I sat down and waited for the "secret admirer" to arrive.

I sat down for a few minutes before a panting Hakyeon pushed the door open. He chuckled nervously and made his way to me.

"Hey." He casually said it, like he wasn't gonna confess or anything. Not like I was waiting for the confession. I nodded as a sign of acknowledgement and continued to stare at the city.

"So, um, you know what you and I are here for, right?' He nervously asked, and I nodded with a slight smile. He took a deep breath.

"The girl I like is you. I don't know, and I don't care if you don't return the feelings, but this has been bugging me for so long that I need to tell you right now." He took another deep breath, and started singing.

"Even if I’m not a good talker, please understand me

I will tell you all of the truth that I’ve been keeping

Do you remember the day we first met?"

Yes. The coffee shop...

"Your pretty lips smiled at me

After that day, I was determined

That I never want to lose you from my embrace

That I will go till the end

Saying I love you with words might not be enough but

Still I will confess to you today

I wanna be with you, always from a step behind you

Don’t forget there’s a person who will protect you

After I met you, I found something to do

It is to make you smile all day, every single day

There might be times when I’m really busy but

In my head, there are only thoughts of you"

I started to tear up, because I finally realised my own feelings.

"Saying I love you with words might not be enough but

Still I will confess to you today

When you tell me to cheer up

When your eyes are looking at me

Those things make me exist right now

I have nothing else to tell you but I love you

Thank you so much for waiting for me till the end

For looking at me without shaking

Lean on me, believe in my love

Let’s be together for always, forever

I love you, I need you.

I love you, I need you.

It’s only you for always

Stay by my side, I’ll comfort you

Let’s love as if the world stopped like this

Thank you for being you"

By the time he finished the song, I was bawling, like literally bawling.

"H-hey, what's wrong?! Ah, I knew it... The song was bad, and my singing skill is terrible..." He looked disappointed.

"No! It's because I finally realised my own feelings, that I like you too, scratch that, I love you." I said, in between sobs. He smiled the happiest smile I have ever seen and hugged me. 

"Hush, don't cry... I hate seeing you cry!" My face snuggled in his chest, his hands rubbing my back and all I could smell was his sweet scent. I finally calmed down and broke the hug.

"To be honest... I knew that you liked me since the day that girl confessed to you. I was there. Hehe." I told him, and his face became red with embarrassment. I pinched his cheeks and laughed.

"So, we're going out now?' He asked, and I started laughing because he was so dumb, ugh.

"Of course, you kid."

He grinned and hugged me again, this time pecking my lips.

"Your face was freaking hilarious. I should have taken a photo of it!" He exclaimed, and I immediately got up to hit his head. 

"UGHHH I WILL KILL YOU ONE DAY!!!!" I shouted at him in embarrassment.

"You can't, you love me too much to kill me." He smirked and I felt like rubbing his face on the ground.

"After all, I was the first one who's confession made you cry."

"GODDAMN, YOU LITTLE BIT-"

Then he kissed me. And I couldn't help but melt into the kiss. I could feel him smile into the kiss, and he pulled back. We cuddled and he suddenly said, "I'm glad to have you. Thank you for being you. I love you." 

"I love you too." I smiled and kissed him.
