Christmas
Four's A Love StorySohye was glancing at the time every second she could. It was Christmas Eve and Daehyun and her had decided to meet up in the evening and have a sleepover like the old times. It was going to be great. And it would be even better if Sohye could just stop working on the company Christmas project and get ready.
She sighed, brushing back her hair, *just this one last analysis and I'll be done...* Her eyes widened as she realised there was a file missing. *Argh, it must be with Myungsoo...* It was four-thirty and they had agreed to meet at six-thirty, so it was okay to go and get that last file from Myungsoo first, right?
After making a quick call to Myungsoo, she hurriedly got dressed and remembered to grab Myungsoo's Christmas presents too.
Sohye turned up the radio and the heating in the car, it was getting seriously cold. There had been snow a few days ago too. "Warnings issued: a possible snow storm approaching. Stay inside!" The woman on the radio announced, but Sohye barely noticed.
As she pulled up in front of Myungsoo's apartment complex, she gaped at how grand and luxurious it looked. *I wonder how gorgeous this is on the inside...* She thought, getting out and rubbing her arms for warmth.
It was nearing five when Sohye reached his door, she suddenly felt slightly nervous. *Why am I nervous? I-* Her thoughts were cut off when Myungsoo opened the door with a huge grin.
"Hi!" He moved over for her to come in.
Sohye looked around, taking in her surroundings. There was a modern glass coffee table and a black sectional sofa sitting behind it. She watched her own reflection in the wide television screen and then glanced at the classy wall decorations.
"So erm, the file-" Sohye began but was cut off.
"Here", Myungsoo handed it to her, smiling.
Sohye grabbed it, "uh, I'll be going then", she began to head to the door.
"Stay", Myungsoo's voice stopped her, and she turned around. "I mean, just for some coffee?" He smiled gently.
Around twenty minutes later, the two of them were sat at the table watching tv, a cup of black coffee each in their hands. They both watched the drama series with concentration, sighing and shouting at the characters.
"Argh! Is she stupid? She's starting to like the other guy and she doesn't even know it!" Sohye shouted at the girl on the screen who was in tears.
"I know right!" Myungsoo added, "the other guy is so perfect for her and she's all teary over this guy, ugh..." He took a sip of his hot coffee and rolled his eyes, turning the volume down at the same time to help mute the hysterical sobbing.
"Shall I switch channels?" He suggested, and Sohye nodded.
Myungsoo switched to the news channel where the weather forecast was being broadcasted. His eyes widened as did Sohye's.
"Snow storm?" Sohye gaped, as Myungsoo walked over to draw open his curtains and she followed. The entire street was paved with thick white snow, and massive lumps were still falling. "Myungsoo, I think I should go before it gets too bad", she said, hurrying to grab her coat.
"Don't you think it's already too late? Even the forecast says it's rapidly getting worse", he frowned with genuine concern and she hesitated, staring at the clock and then out the big windows.
"I-I don't know, I was going to spend today with Daehyun..." She trailed off as she saw Myungsoo's worried frown turn into a look of disappointment. Just then, her phone rang and she picked it up quickly to avoid the awkwardness.
"Hello?"
"Sohye-ah! Are you on your way yet? The snow's getting really heavy", Daehyun asked, worried.
Sohye glanced up at Myungsoo who looked on curiously, "uh, actually, I'm not. The weather's getting really bad, do you wanna just hang out another time?" She suggested, avoiding eye contact with Myungsoo, who beamed.
"Huh? O-Oh, yeah, sure..." The disappointment was obvious in his voice and Sohye suddenly felt guilty. "Bye..."
"Bye, oppa", she ended the call and put her phone back into her pocket. "Well, looks like I'll be spending Christmas with you then, Myungsoo", she said, cracking a smile.
Two hours later, Myungsoo and Sohye had already watched a ton of shows on the television, drank some wine, and ch
