Lies (Keo)
31 Days of December DrabblesDecember 2: Lies (Keo)
There he was, tall and handsome. His broad shoulders, his short black hair framing his dark piercing eyes. How he could stand there and smile at her like that was beyond him. Sure she was pretty with her long blonde hair but he thought her makeup was a bit too heavy. Well apparently it was enough to seduce the love of his life. It wasn't fair but it wasn't a surprise, what with all the sneaking around and forced smiles. But that's how Taekwoon was. He avoided anything that made him uncomfortable, especially when it came to Jaehwan. Jaehwan was everything Taekwoon wasn't; energetic, bright, cheery, and open minded. And that was the problem. Taekwoon couldn't let himself be open, to accept himself falling in love with Jaehwan.
So here Jaehwan was, watching the love of his life force himself to fall in love with a girl he barely knew. It just wasn't fair. Jaehwan had given all of himself to Taekwoon, everything. But even though it felt right to Taekwoon, it scared him. He didn't want to be ridiculed by his peers or rejected by his fans and that made Jaehwan mad because he was ready to sacrifice everything for love and Taekwoon just wasn't mature enough to see that so many of their peers were already in love with each other. Taekwoon didn't want to listen to the words of wisdom Hakyeon had for him. He kept poisoning himself with lies and Jaehwan wasn't going to stay around, not when he wasn't going to be heard.
When would the lies stop and the truth some forth? Who knew but Jaehwan wasn't going to wait forever. He stopped caring and turned his back, not wondering if Taekwoon was looking for him.
