The weeks have passed quicker than they could've expected, weather was colder than before and the streets were covered with snow so drivers had to be extra careful now, which also meant sometimes classes being cancelled due to the snow and that brings the current situation right now, One Seo Soojin in bed with her current crush, Yeh Shuhua who is sitting behind her as the cheerleader was sitting between her legs with her phone on her hands. 

They were at the Seo Household since Shuhua wanted some sense of privacity away from her mother, and Soojin's house always made her feel welcome no matter what and she enjoyed that, Mrs. Seo had a day off that day and had been nothing but kind to the taiwanesse. 

 

"Oh, Oh! You're in the open field" Shuhua exclaims to Soojin who looked back at her in confusion.

 

"That's a bad thing?" The older girl asked, looking back at the screen while Shuhua moved forward and rested her chin on her shoulder to watch properly.

 

"You don't have a bulletproof vest, keep crouching" She suggested and Soojin blushed once she felt the younger holding her hands to show her how. "Don't go near the gunshots"

 

"Right…" She started to move away while crouching. "Like this?"

 

"Yeah" Shuhua carressed her hair. "Good girl"

 

"What- Am I your dog now?" Soojin mumbled under her breath despite blushing at the praise; Shuhua didn't reply, but the older could hear her giggling behind her.

 

When Shuhua suggested them to play PUBG earlier, Soojin claimed it would be boring and how the game wasn't fun but right now she was on her third match and Shuhua watched with a smile at how passionate she was about the game and how frustrated she was about losing here and there, Shuhua wrapped her arms around Soojin's waist and kept on watching her play, giving tips here and there. 

 

"Geez, I'm glad this is muted," Shuhua said between giggles once she heard Soojin swearing because she died in the game. "I think a lot of 10 year olds would have like 20 brand new swear words added to their vocabulary" She joked, laughing harder when Soojin playfully hits her with her elbow. "Ouch, so mean-"

 

"This ing-"

 

"Language."

 

"Fine! This stupid guy shown up from nowawhere" Soojin mumbled, irritated and felt Shuhua laugh again as she buried her face on her hair to cover it up. "Don't laugh at me, it's frustrating!" 

 

"You'll get better, don't worry" Shuhua said, hugging her tighter and Soojin looked back at her, almost flinching at how close their faces were. "What?" The younger then asked once Soojin just looked at her in silence. "Did my beauty shock you, JinJin?" She then jokes before laughing. 

 

'Yes, it did.' Soojin wanted to say, but instead she leaned forward and pressed their foreheads as she looked into her eyes which made Shuhua stop laughing as she stared back and Soojin couldn't help but notice the way the younger her lips. 

 

"Soojin-'' Shuhua called, more like a whisper, and the other looked back to her eyes again, humming in response. "Do you like-'' There's a knock at the door and the girl quickly moved away from the taiwanesse, at least as most as she could because Shuhua's arms were still wrapped around her waist and if anything she was holding Soojin tighter now; The door opens and Mrs. Seo's head peeks inside the room and she smiles at the pair.

 

"Children, I made some snacks. Are you two hungry?" The woman asked, smiling warmly at them and Shuhua couldn't help but smile back. 

 

"Mom, we're not children!" Soojin mumbled, face still red from what just happened. The woman arched an eyebrow.

 

"So you don't want any brownies then?"

 

"I didn't say that" Soojin replied before they quickly got up from the bed and made their way downstairs, Soojin dragging Shuhua by the hand and if Mrs. Seo noticed them basically cuddling in bed, she didn't mention or seemed to mind.

 

Mrs. Seo's cooking was almost as good as Soojin's. Somehow, for Shuhua, the girl's food just tasted a lot better to her, maybe she did it different or maybe it was the knowledge that Soojin cooked for her specifically, and that pleased the rather possessive side of her but it's not one of the things she would say out loud and definitely not to Soojin, The older girl was currently sitting next to her eating her mom's brownies while Shuhua did the same, both answering questions about everyday and school life to the woman who was sitting in front of them.

 

"Soojin dyed her hair without permission, actually," Mrs. Seo said and Shuhua gasps before turning to the older one who was casually eating. "Her father was furious" 

 

"Unnie, You're such a rebel" Soojin heard Shuhua said and chuckled before playfully pushing her; Shuhua still called her unnie in front of her mom and Soojin has the feeling she likes to play the good girl role in front of others, it's how she gets what she wants and gets away with so many things.

 

"Dad was really happy when I dyed my hair back to black" Soojin said, remembering how wide his smile was when he saw her. 

 

"He really was'' Mrs. Seo laughed and Soojin watched as Shuhua smirked at her, knowing that the older had dyed her hair back to the natural color because of her and not because of her dad, and knowing that the taiwanesse was aware of it made Soojin even more shy so she just focused on eating again. "What about you, Shuhua? Never done anything to your hair?" The woman asked. "I thought kids these days went crazy with the hair dye"

 

Shuhua shaked her hair with wide eyes and Soojin couldn't stop herself from laughing as the you

Oh, it's been a while! After what had happened, I stop reading anything related to SooShu or any (G) I-DLE pairings. My heart was too heartbroken by it but I miss them. I miss reading fictions about them, and I'll start once again.

Thank you for writing! I just hope you're always healthy and happy 😊

Chapter 60: Like one of the chapter said, not everything ends with a happy ending since sad ending is more realistic.
