Misunderstandings.
X-Marks The Spot!
“I need to talk to you.” Nana said as she pulled me aside the second we set foot in the reception hall.
I frowned at her “What? But I was just about to go find Sehun –”
“That’s what I want to talk to you about.” Nana shook her head “Listen, Krystal told me that you’re going to give him another chance but I really –”
“There you are!” Chanyeol came over to us and pulled Nana to his side “I missed you, let’s go dance.” He took her hand and pulled her towards the dance floor.
“Chanyeol!” Nana hissed.
I rolled my eyes and turned around; I regretted it the second I saw the sight of Sehun walking in alongside Joonmyun but he wasn’t just with Joonmyun. He was linked arms with a tall blonde and now I understood what Nana was trying to tell me.
Eunji suddenly ran up to them and pulled Joonmyun aside, I don’t know how long I was stood there frozen for but Joonmyun immediately looked at me and his eyes went wide.
I turned around and heaved a sigh “Not today.” I shook my head, I would not be crying today.
“Here she is!” Luhan said raising his arms up as he came towards me “My dance partner!”
“Good timing Lu.” I smiled at him.
He frowned at me “Uh oh. I know that look. What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” I shook my head and grabbed his hand “Let’s get a drink.”
“Now you’re talking!” Luhan chuckled “You look beautiful, by the way. Seriously, I think half of our old classmates didn’t recognise you.”
“Ah times change.” I chuckled as I dragged him towards the bar and I was happy to see the bartender set out two glasses of champagne for us “Oh, quick service.”
“For you it will be.” The bartender winked at me before moving off to serve someone else.
Luhan snorted “Well, he just confirmed how beautiful you are this evening.”
“Just this evening?” I .
He rolled his eyes “You know what I meant.” He lifted up the glass and held it towards me “Cheers.”
“Cheers.” I clinked my glass against his.
“Oh, Sehun is coming over!” Luhan beamed “I’m so glad that black-eye went.”
I almost spat out the champagne, I had to really force myself to swallow it “H-Holy hell.”
“Easy.” Luhan patted me on the back.
Sehun stopped next to me and gave me a smile “Jaera, could I have a word?”
“Ah.” I gave him a soft smile “I just promised Luhan that I’d tour the building with him.”
“You did?” Luhan whispered to me.
Sehun frowned “Jaera, please.”
“Sorry.” I linked arms with Luhan “Maybe later.” I yanked Luhan away from the bar.
Luhan looked at me once we were at a safe enough distance “Well I do love being used as an awkward escape route Jaera but I’d really like to know why.”
“I was going to give him another chance.” I explained as we moved towards the glass doors “But he came here with a date. I feel pretty stupid. Let’s not dwell on it.”
“Hold up!” Luhan came to a standstill, forcing me to at the same time “This is big; you know he probably doesn’t like her as much as he loves you right?”
“It’s not the point. He’s moving on.” I nodded firmly “I was just too stubborn. It’s fine.”
“No, it is not fine Jaera.” Luhan shook his head “I didn’t even know he was bringin
