It was another school day. Tomorrow, nobody had school, thanks to you. You felt like today was going to be boring. Like the usual. However, all negative thoughts were lost when you saw Minho down the hall. He was alone, getting his things from out of his locker. You took a deep breath, fixing up your hair and your uniform. You then approached him. "M-Minho." you mumbled. He turned towards your direction.
"Oh? Hey, Maemi. It's been a while since we last spoken." he smiled.
"Y-yeah, it has. I wanted to ask how you were doing." you said.
"I've been doing fine. But I've been worried about you. The first time we met, you seemed chill and comfortable. But now, every time I see you, you're always nervous. Are you okay?" he asked.
"O-of course I'm okay. I'm just... always like this." you lied.
He nodded. "I see. I also wanted to talk about something with you."
"What is it?"
"I wanted to know if you—" The bell started to ring.
"I'm sorry, Minho. But, I have to get to my next class." you said as you bowed.
"Right. Talk later after school?" he asked. You nodded happily. He smiled before leaving. You sighed happily before going to your next class.
You

hwang_jinniesk

You

hwang_jinniesk
No hesitation?
You
YUP!!!😁😁😁
hwang_jinniesk
Oh.
Well then
Congrats for you.😐 Class is starting for me. I'll leave first.
You
Alright then....
During lunch, you sat quietly, staring at Hyunjin's table. Other people would think it was weird, but you were used to it at this point. You noticed that Hyunjin was being more quiet than his usual loud self. You felt a little bad for him. Was he upset? "Maemi! Why aren't you listening?!" Anko's voice cut you off. You looked back at her.
"Hm?" you said.
"What's on your mind?" Naein asked. You gave a fake smile and shook your head.
"N-nothing." you said.
"You're lying." Jemsong caught.
"I... um... I'm hanging out with Minho after school." you stated.
"Really? Minho from third period?" Jemsong asked. You nodded, knowing that she did in fact have that class with him and Chan.
"Girl, he's literally 17 years old. He's leaving this year." Anko said.
"And?" you argued.
"And you're 14. Next year, it won't even be legal." she scolded.
"A girl's gotta do what she's gotta do." you smirked.
"Little girl, don't speak like that." she said, flicking your forehead. You winced. "Why don't you date someone around your age? Like my brother, Tako?"
"Because your 'brother's' an ass." you said.
"That's not... completely true." Jemsong said.
"Look, he's just not on the same page as me. He's not my type."
"And what is your type?" Naein asked.
"I don't know. But, what I do know is that Minho is taking the shine." you said as you clasped your hands together and smiled.
"I hate to break it to you Maemi, but this will most likely fail." Anko stated. You pouted.
After school finally came. You wandered around the front of the school, trying to seem like you weren't waiting for Minho, but you were. You saw him and the guys walking out of the school together. You hid behind the staircase. He soon shooed them away, looking around for you. You took out your phone and scanned yourself. Alright, nothing bad, you thought. After fixing yourself up, you walked casually from the staircase to Minho's view. He waved at you, and you returned it. "Wanna go over to the park area?" he asked when he came up to you. You nodded.
You both strolled talking about interests. "Man, I could use a vacation." you said.
"Me, too. I'd love to go out to eat and take a few walks in some nice forests." he said, smiling. I thought the whole point of a vacation was to sit and sleep?! you thought. You just nodded at his response. He stopped. "Is that a striped bench?" He was looking over at an oddly colored seating area.
"Stripes are hideous—"
"I love stripes."
"..hideously gorgeous. I would dEfInItElY wear stripes eVeRyDaY if I had striped clothing." you lied. Minho gave you a confused look. you played it off with a shy smile. He gestured for you both to sit there. When you did, he sighed.
"It's so hard being a trainee. It adds more pressure being in an eliminating show." he said.
"I can tell. You're the ones who signed up for it." you said. Minho gave you another look. That would have maybe been less offensive if I said that to Hyunjin. "I mean, it must be. Do you at least have any experience?" you asked in a sweeter voice.
"Well, I was a back-up dancer for BTS. I guess that's some experience."
"Oh my Boa, really? That's cool. Do you have any role models?"
"My main role model is Taecyeon, from 2PM. It's one of my favorite groups."
"DOUBLE REALLY?!! He's my cousin."
"Woah. The world seems so small now. He's really your cousin. You're so lucky."
"He can be a pain in the ass at times, always scolding for my dirty mind and my bad language."
"What?"
"I mean, I guess I am pretty lucky, huh?"
"Yes, you are."
You paused for a moment, remembering what happened in the hallway. "Minho. You were going to ask me something this morning. What was it?" you asked. I hope he really DOES ask me out this time.
"Right. I was asking if you knew Hyunjin. He's one of my friends. He's taller than me." he asked.
Dammit. "H-Hyunjin? I... um... I think I might know him. T-then again, I know three Hyunjins. Actually, no. I only know two..." you mumbled.
"Then I assume that you're the girl he's been talking about?"
"I-I, uh..." Suddenly, your phone starting ringing. THANK THE LORD OF HOLY JISOOS!!! You quickly took the call. It was your mother.
"Maemi, where are you right now? I thought we were going to talk about your party." she said.
"M-Ma, I already told you, I'm not having a birthday party. The girls and I just plan on eating our faces off and watching kdramas in my room." you whispered.
"Why not? You have a nice amount of friends. And this is the only time you're having a party and I'm allowing it."
You snuck a look at Minho. "As a matter-of-fact. YeS mA, oF cOuRsE! I'm cOmInG hOmE nOw!" you said loud enough so Minho could hear.
"Okay? Call me when you're close to the house." she said before hanging up on you.
You looked back at Minho. "Oh, what a bummer. Looks like I'll be going home now." you said.
"I'll walk you." he said. As tempting as it was to say yes to his adorable face, you had to decline it. The conversation was already getting awkward.
"No thanks. I'm fine on my own. Bye Minho."
"Stay safe. Bye." he said, waving.
"R-right. Bye." you said waving back.
You
Sigh.
hwang_jinniesk
What is it? Did your DATE go bad?
You
Certainly not what I was hoping for. But I GUESS it wasn't that bad.
It's strange.
hwang_jinniesk
What was so strange about it?
You
No, not the date. Btw, I lied about that. But you were the first person I told about it. So wEiRd!!
hwang_jinniesk
Wait, it WASN'T a date?
You
Were you not paying attention to what I just SAID!
hwang_jinniesk
Sorry. I feel honored that you told me first👍👌
You
Yay for you.
hwang_jinniesk
I can feel the pain of your sarcasm.
You
Also, I kinda stared at you the whole day. Nothing sexual. Why did you look so salty?
hwang_jinniesk
No particular reason. Whatever it was, I'm not upset now. Were you worried about me???☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺😚😚😚😚
You
If I admitted that I was, I know you'd bug me about it. And I have too much pride. So no.
hwang_jinniesk
If you say so.😏
