Chapter 2

"That was the best party ever!!!" Himchan shouted, clearly drunk. Everyone laughed at the silly hyung. It was already way past midnight when the party ended. Slowly, they headed towards the parking lot, hoping that they were all sober enough to drive. Dré started walking straight towards her bike, well, okay I lied She barely walked straight considering the amount of alcohol circulating in her body, it was no surprise. She was not sober, not sober at all to drive and that didn’t remained unnoticed by Zelo. "Hey! Dré why don't you just ride with us?" "Can't leave my bike here." She answered, declining his offer. "But it's already late...it's not safe for you to drive considering how drunk you are.” He stated the obvious. But she ignored his reasoning. “I’m not drunk… I’ll be fine.” She stated urging him back to his hyungs. “I don’t think so I’m not letting you go alone especially wearing that...” He stated pointing out what she was wearing. Zelo regretted having her wear that dress. If only he knew that she would get hit on so many times, he would have let her come in with her sneakers and jeans. “You're a magnet for bad guys." He stated. She smirked. 'Oh you have no idea' she thought. "I'm not going to leave my bike here, Zelo...you can't make me change my mind." She answered back, now seated on her bike. Zelo ran towards her and pulled her down. "What the he--" "I'm not going to let you leave alone...I'm coming with you." He said stubbornly and rode her bike. "I'll drive." he stated stubbornly, taking her keys. "Suit yourself." She said hopping on, and wearing her helmet. "Hyung, I'm going to send Dré home, okay? Bye~" he said waving goodbye. His hyungs nodded and drove off. Dré slowly wrapped her arms around his waist and casually let her head rest on his back that caught Zelo off guard, he blushed. "Well....what are you waiting for?? Go." she stated with an annoyed tone. She had to admit she had fun tonight but nothing feels better than sleeping on her queen sized bed. She went through a lot tonight and all she wanted to do was to take her beauty sleep. "A-ah... neh" he stuttered, awkwardly starting the engine to life and soon drove off.

It took them an hour and a half to get to Dré's place, so Zelo wasn't surprise that Dré decided to doze off. After several minutes of driving, Zelo finally saw a familiar white penthouse apartment, Dré's "humble" abode. How she can afford it still baffles his mind.

Zelo took Dré's helmet off and saw that she was still asleep. He started to shake her, hoping to wake her up. "Dré...wake up....wake up Dré..". Her eyes fluttered open. Dré stood there just staring at Zelo. He looked at her weirdly and said, "Go up and sleep on your bed already." "Carry me" she said cutely extending her arms towards him. Zelo's eyes widen at her weird behavior. "Come on please~ please~" she cooed. That was when it hit him, "It's the alcohol talking....fine". He slowly picked her up and carried her until they were inside.

He dropped her down the living room, and she pouted. "Yah… why didn't you carry me all the way to my room?" she whined. 'Great....She's having a tantrum' he thought. "I have to go home too Dré..." he explained. Her eyebrows knitted together. "Don't leave… just stay for the night… pleeeeaaase..." she begged. Zelo looked at her shocked but thought that it was just the alcohol talking. "I can't, okay?" He said firmly. "But Jello~" she whined. "I want you to stay." she said giving him a hug. Zelo blushed. 'It's just the alcohol...it's just the alcohol, Zelo... just the alcohol' he thought trying his best to not give in to her. "Please Jello~ please~" she said bringing her head closer to him. Close enough to feel each other's breath. Zelo gulped. She was staring right into his eyes, he couldn't help but melt, so long story short....Dré won.  Zelo stayed for the night.

Zelo finally convinced Dré to go to her room. 'Dré you're so tiring' he thought. "Go change your clothes Dré". She nodded and started ping her dress. "Not here!!?!?!" He shouted. Dré laughed at his outburst. "Okay...okay...I'll go to the bathroom." She said grabbing a set of clothes. Once she was in, Zelo plopped down on the bed, thinking what he deserve to be teased like this. He sat up and ruffled his hair. 'Get your head straight Zelo, she's drunk, just drunk' he thought.

"Hey Dré do you have some clothes I could change into? I reek." He asked. "I think so..." she said turning the knob."Great! Why don't yo--" he stopped when she saw what she was wearing. It was his shirt that he left when he crashed at her house. The shirt was clearly too big for her. The sleeves were almost at her elbows and was long enough to be a dress. Well, a dress that barely covers her milky white thighs.  'What the !?!?! Really!?! Really!? Haven't you teased me enough!?! Why would you just wear a shirt!?! My shirt!!' His mind screamed. He couldn't help but gawked at the girl who was now bent over her closet looking for clothes for him to wear. He had a clear view of her flawless legs as the shirt started to inch higher from her position. His mind was starting to create lewd thoughts until she spoke. "This is the biggest shirt and sweatpants that I own. Will this suffice?" She said giving it to him innocently. Unaware of what her actions had done to him. Zelo stared. And stared. And stared. "" he said unconsciously. "Sorry... I'm not a plus size that's all I could offer." she answered ruffling her hair, making her shirt inch higher. Zelo gulped. "A-ani this is fine... I'll just… I'll just uhmm...I..." he stuttered not knowing where to look. "Shower?" She continued. "Yeah, yeah, shower" he said walking away awkwardly, trying to hide the bulge slowly forming in his pants.

'What the heck!! Does she want me to go mental!?!? Arggh... can't she understand how bad a tease she could really be argh....' Zelo thought while the water continued to pour down his head. 'I swear! If she continues this....arghhh... I don't know if I could still control myself' his mind continued. Zelo know that Dré acts weird when she's drunk but this was beyond what he was used to. She was like a different person. She never acted that way before, she was never the cute type, heck she hated being told cute. She was more of the silly yet serious, smart yet hot, a fighter yet caring type of girl and that was what he loved about her. Behind that cold stare was a lovable little girl that everybody would love once you get to know her. She was perfect in his eyes, and always have been since he first saw her smile. To him, she was his everything... the only problem now is... if she feels the same.

Zelo got out of the shower after relieving himself as quietly as he could and wore the clothes that she gave him. He prepared himself for the constant teases he would have to suffer from her before he turned the knob and opened the door. When he got out, he saw her, already asleep. ‘Thank goodness.’ He sighed. "Can't believe how much trouble you've put me through, Dré" he said, moving towards her. "Can't believe you’re capable of teasing me to the extent that I thought was going to lose my mind." He continued. He caressed her hair and slowly whispered, "You've got to be careful next time I don't know how far I can take control, Dré...." He leaned in closer.

"...you can be really mean sometimes... I don't know if you’re blind or just dense... why can't you see that I love you?" He tucked some of the hair that hid her face behind her ear.

"... I hated how every guy looked at you tonight... you know I regretted making you wear that... now everybody knows how hot you really can be....” he continued as he stared at her lovingly.

“I hated how you flirted with that guy, but I guess he wasn't really that important because you didn't even bother to ask his name...” he stated with a small smile.

“....but in a way I kind of want to thank him…for without him I wouldn't have gotten that hug....”

“…….also, I hated the way you would always have me do what you want....”

“I hate how I always can't say no to you... how your words can bring me to…my knees... I guess what I'm trying to say is…”

“...... I hate how much you made me love you…" he confessed.

"...but most of all Dré, I hate how I'm not man enough to tell you what I feel when you're not asleep."

He said as he felt a tear ran down his cheek. Zelo couldn't help the tears falling from his eyes. He knew he was a coward for not telling you this in person but he feared that he would lose you when he did.
