Chapter 10

It was Sunday, almost afternoon time now. We were driving back to school, in the same cars we arrived in.

This whole trip came at an unexpected time and everything that happened on this trip was so unexpected too.

Jin and Joon hyung were already talking about school stuff as Hobi hyung was fast asleep next to me. You know, with the amount of sleep I got last night, I should be knocked out right now but I feel more energetic than usual... strange isn't it?

I had a random flashback as I stared out the window to Hobi hyung coming into our room to wake us up this morning. I heard his voice and Tae hyung telling him he will wake me up, as soon as the door closed I felt him nuzzle up against my neck. I couldn't help but smile because this wasn't weird and I was scared it was gonna be. "Jungkookie! It's time to wake up!" I heard him speak against my neck

I giggled as I further pushed my face in my pillow trying to wake myself up, realizing at the same time that it was way too soon to be snuggled up against a man that I just confessed to and kissed. "Hey Kook!" he said again

"Mhm.." I answered like clock work

"I think it's safe to say we can never be friends again!"

I giggled louder than I should at that, "Oh no, but we were so close!" I said sarcastically slowly lifting my head from my pillow. I was met with his lips on my cheeks

"I think we're even closer now!" he said.

I could feel myself absolutely losing it, the heart skipping beats, the butterflies flying all over the insides of my stomach - the stuff you hear about in movies. This is crazy! Do people really feel stuff like this when they like someone or do I just like him way too much? He must have noticed how much I smiled as I stared at him as he came down to peck me on the lips this time. I laid there, as he took my lips in his, it wasn't long but it was enough. He stared at me lovingly, moving my hair out of my face again.

We really took this moment in of staring at each other soaking in each other because after this we had to go back to reality.

The reality was that we had to hide this from the people we love, the reality was I couldn't even act like he was mine in public, the reality was if people ever found out both our images in the school would be done for, the reality was that our parents reputation would be tarnished, the reality was I couldn't stop thinking of this horrible reality! I wish I could just enjoy moments as they come to me instead of worrying about what it would all lead to.

"What's wrong?" he noticed my long face and kissed me lightly again

"It's nothing hyung!" I forced out a smile as I got up slightly pushing him off me and went to the bathroom - I didn't wanna be caught by hyungs that was gonna walk in the door without thinking either, not today. I didn't want to explain that right now - it would be hard to explain.

"Kook?" he followed to the bathroom locking the door behind him

I was trying to brush my teeth now only to be stopped by him, "Hey no, spill! Now Kook!"

"Hyung! We have to hide it, and- and we can't get caught or let them know!"

"Hey that's okay, it's kinda exciting! Being secretive and all, right? We will tell them eventually Kook! I promise, we will tell everyone!"

"Mhmm!" I smiled trying not to make it too forced, because I didn't want him to know about all that was going on in my head, not now. I do wonder if he is thinking like me though because he's not the best at hiding his emotions, and right now he wasn't showing me anything. "I'll be fine hyung! Just sad we have to go back to reality now.."

"What reality?"

"You know last night was magical and stuff, now this is gonna be reality."

"I'll tell you what reality is.." he stepped in so there was no room between us and held me by the waist, a similar pose from yesterday. I smiled, slightly blushing thinking about it. "... the reality is, we are going to go back to college and we are gonna spend as much time together as we can. We are gonna go to class together, study together, eat together and Kook I'll make sure we get time to snuggle together.." I looked away smiling at that, "and hell I will kiss you when no one is looking, you will not see it coming - no every chance I get I will take!" I was quietly giggling as his lips mine again giving me a peck.. "Kook it wasn't just last night that was magical, it's gonna be every single day from now on - I am with you aren't I? And you are magic, it's why I fell like a crazy person for you!"

"Hyunggg that's so corny oh my god!" I whined as I hid my face on his neck. He moved his hands off my waist as he cupped both my cheeks together with his hands and forced a kiss on me. I was still smiling though it all.

"Yeah I can't believe I said it either, ew! I blame you for it!" he said shyly smiling at me, "But Kook, we'll figure it out- it's not like I met you yesterday. I know you front and back and I know that we will take care of this and of each other!"

I giggled as I leaned in for another kiss.

"I am just relieved you like me too, the fact that that's my reality - that's what I am happy about!" I felt myself blush at that again, if I could blush anymore than I was already.

"Me too, hyung!" I smiled as he leaned in taking my lips again. This was better, I wasn't thinking much of anything else except for being in his arms and holding him tight. It's exactly where I wanted to be right now.

We parked and were getting out to go to dorms. I got my stuff out and was walking towards my apartment with Hobi hyung when I felt someone brush past me, "I'll text you!" he whispered as he sped walked towards his dorm room. I paused to smile and Jimin hyung came and hit me in the back forcing me back to reality.

"Come with me, now!" he gave a grin as he waited for me to walk. As I walked up to him he put his arm around me as a way of locking me up and smirked. "Let's drink some tea... spill I mean! Muhahaha!"

Oh this man!

------------------------

"Tell me, tell me now, tell me literally now! Don't leave nothing out, don't leave a single thing out! Spill it, spill it all! " We were in my room and Jimin hyung closed the door and was doing his little loud whisper screaming thing he always does. Hobi hyung was in his room working on music and with his headphones in he probably wouldn't even notice the world ending.

I filled him in on everything that happened, how I confessed as they were lighting the fireworks, and how he kissed me and how we talked about our feelings for each other. He was over the moon, this man was happier than I was about this. I smiled knowing I really did make an amazing friend in Jimin hyung. You know a friend is right for you when they're literally happier than you when happy things happen in your life.

"So like did I do this Lowkey? Like this was borderline all me basically? The same room? Fireworks? The dramatic lie to make him jealous! Making y'all be aloneee!" he scoffed, "I am Mr. Romantic some may say!" he was very excited

"Sure hyung, you really did help a lot though so thank you! And fireworks was you?"

"Oh come on Kook! Fireworks are fun and all but don't you just wanna kiss someone when fireworks happen?" I raised a questionable eyebrow at him, "I mean I haven't yet I saw it in a kdrama, not the point! I mean I really was just hoping you two had a moment where you looked into each others eyes and in that moment there was nothing and no one.." oh boy he's being dramatic again, I rolled my eyes waiting for him to finish, "in this world that matter except.. except the two of you!" he wiped his fake tears away

I giggled at how silly he was being, "You can say that's what happened... it was a beautiful moment hyung, thank you.

"But you exceeded my expectations... didn't expect for anyone to make out like that was fast, damn Kook get yours boy!"

"Oh god, it wasn't like making out, it was soft very PG!" I smiled

"Ah only PG? Really? But like what else happened... you know... after the kiss?"

"Nothing that was it?"

"You..just kissed? I made sure y'all got the same room together only for you to ONLY kiss?"

"We cuddled too." I looked down to smile

"Oh gross, ewww just ughhh, stop making me feel all single and alone!"

"Hyung! You literally have a girlfriend!"

"Ohhhh crap! Yeah didn't tell ya, that sadly didn't work out!" he said smiling

"What? Why not! And why didn't you tell me earlier?" I asked kinda mad

He let out a soft sigh, "Well you were having your own trouble with love and you would worry about me, I didn't want that! But ah.. well, we both kinda figured out we were better off as friends, and I- erm.... just want her to be happy I guess, I didn't think I was making her happy. She needs a boyfriend, not a friend you know? I told her we still can be friends cause she's a great friend!"

"Mhm I don't know how you guys were just friends when you guys literally were kissing for no reason!"

"Kook please I am only human besides it was a friendly kiss.."

"Oh please hyung, you're such a liar!"

"Nah Kook, I am just a flirty person I guess. It was unfair to her ya know, we weren't really going anywhere. She deserves someone better!"

"Wow, kinda grown up of you hyung!"

"I am always grown up and the romance king duh! Back to what's important.... how is Tae in the kissing area? I must know!"

"Hyung..." I was about to get off bed in shyness, "Don't ask me stuff like that!"

"Ohhh man, he was good wasn't he? I expect nothing more! Does he know that I know? We telling everyone else now? What's the plan?"

"Okay gonna skip past that first statement, but yes he does know that you know! We talked about it but don't know how everyone would react, ya know? Plus, we don't know where this is going!"

"Y'all don't know where it's going? You definetly did last night when..."

"Hyunggg!" I yelled cutting him off,

"I was gonna say cuddled, you guys cuddled! Stupid, got scared!"

I rolled my eyes at that and was about to say something sarcastic to him, but I was feeling tired now, suddenly I heard my phone go off and I hurried to grab it. Jimin hyung watched as I smiled at the screen unlocking my phone.

"Is it him?" he asked smirking

"I don't know what you're talking about!" I smugly said as I walked out the door, I heard him giggling in the background

----------------------------

"Hyung?" I asked slightly opening the door after knocking on it.

"Come here!" I heard his voice call out to me and I followed it.

"Where's Jin hyung?"

"Doing lawyer things with Joon hyung.." he was sitting on the floor, back against the couch. I didn't wanna question why he was on the floor as Tae hyung does stuff I never understand.. "he said something about it but I zone out when he talks about school...." he watched me walk over and sit next to him on the floor, "he said he'll be out for a bit sooo..."

"Soooo..." I mimicked

"Sooo come here!" he didn't even wait for me to go to him as he met his lips with mine

"Okay, you just gonna do that all the time now?" I asked pulling back smiling

"I mean I think my exact words was every chance I get!"

"Ow! My poor lips!"

"I mean I'll just stop then, since you don't want me to!"

"Woah!" I got defensive, "who said I didn't want to?"

He giggled, "You wanna watch tangled again... or did you wanna watch something not so cartoonish?"

"Never! Always cartoons!"

"Well I ordered us some pizza so that will be here soon... we can watch whatever you want." I smiled and looked around the room. The fuzzy gray blanket that's never really used much is on the floor for us to sit on, there are drinks, and the curtains are closed, very few lights were on making the room very dimmed.

"Hyung... is this a date?"

"A what? No, what makes you think.... ah crap, I guess it is.."

I giggled at how awkward and shy he got, "I was trying to take it slow and subtle, in case you suddenly didn't like me anymore... had to make sure we weren't still just friends." he said still unable to fully make eye contact with me

"Really? You thought after I spent all of last night and this morning... never mind ... that I would only see you as a friend? Never had a friend like that I'll tell you that.." I giggled shyly

"So you still like me?"

"Oh god, " I rolled my eyes, "Of course! I like like you remember?"

He exhaled dramatically clasping his hand over his heart, "Thank god! I may need to be reminded of that everyday sooo! Well what the heck are you doing so far away from me then? Come here!"

I scooted even closer to him even though I was sitting right next to him as he had his arm out to me, instead of taking it I slid right into his body and rested my head on his chest. He giggled happily at that as he held me tight.

------------------

We sat back up on the couch as the floor was getting uncomfortable. He was laying on my chest now, we were snuggling up against each other being full from the pizza. We didn't watch a movie that day, correction there was a movie on in the background that we never paid attention to because we were too busy paying attention to each other.

"I can't believe we went with Mulan! You're too funny Kooks!"

"Why is it funny? It's a cute movie, no?"

"No, it's just not a first date movie.." he chuckled, "Well, I guess it is.. kinda wondering how you didn't figure out your sexuality sooner with these movie choices."

"Alright hyung, I am just a sensitive dude, and Shang was definitely not so straight huh? He was ready to risk it all!"

"Mhm, reminds me of someone!"

"Who, you?" he chucked again at me saying that I nuzzled myself against his hair, it sure does smell like him

"No, definitely you!"

"It's you hyung!" He got up off my chest and peck me again "Hyung," I whined at that. I got more giggles from him.

He traced my cheek and jawline with him thumb as I stared at him smiling. He started to lean close to me again taking my lips in his. This position was more intimate than what I was used to as he was laying on top of me.

I heard the door turn open and my horrible reflex decided to push him off me, he landed at the floor looking at me questionably and kinda mad... not kinda nope that was his mad face for sure.

"Kook!" he yelped holding onto his back

Jin hyung was at the door looking at both of us, blank then his eyes widened a bit questionably... "Are y'all fighting?"

I had the most apologetic look on my face, "Hyung? I am sorry" I whispered

"Did.. you just ah-" he yelped out in pain holding his back still lowkey glaring at me, "push me down?"
