Ch 4: With You (1/1)
Before I could react in time I heard someone scream my name."Chorong! Where the hell are you?" It was Nana's voice.That was when reality finally hit me. I gathered the last bits of my strength and pushed the guy in front of me, making sure he stumbled back a few feet. Then, my blurred vision finally became clear. I looked up at the person that stood across from me -- it was Luhan slash Chanyeol's friend slash creep slash what I would call now, the so-called pervert. I touched my lips, taking in what just happened and then realized my first kiss was stolen by this drunk bastard. Anger began to grow inside of me, I was about ready to burst."WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?" I screamed so loud that the people in the hallway turned around to look in my direction.That jerk began to approach me again, this time with a smirk on his face as if he was satisfied with what he just did. His face was glowing red not from embarrassment but from drinking more than he should've.I opened my mouth ready to yell for help when I heard footsteps running towards me. I turned to my right to see Nana hurrying towards us with a male figure following behind her."What happened Chorong!?" She stopped in front of me, panting, then looked to me then to Luhan who stopped in his steps. Suho came up beside her.I pointed my finger at the guy that stood in front of me."H-h-he.." I tried to find the right words to say but my mind blanked out."He what?? Are you okay Chorong?"Before I could say another word I collasped to the floor.- - -The next morning I woke up feeling sick to my stomach. It was probably one of the worst feelings I had ever experienced in my life.As I slowly opened my eyes and sat up, I realized that I was not in my own bed. "Ugh, where am I.." I scanned my surroundings to see a neatly organized room with dark blue walls and little furnishings. As I tried to make out where I was, my eyes fell on a several neatly ironed dress shirts hanging on the door knob of the room. Male's dress shirts.That was when my mind went on a roller coaster of imaginations and scenarios. I jumped out of the bed I was in and looked down at what I was wearing - striped navy blue boxers and a slightly loose white v-neck.Guilt and anxiety began to creep up over my body. Something just felt so wrong. Just when I was about to go bang my head against the wall, there were knocks on the door. I turned around to see Suho standing there.He gave me a small wave. "Hey, you're awake."I was a millisecond away from a mental breakdown. What I was imagining in that moment couldn't have possibly happened between me and the person that was standing in front of me but I couldn't recall a single thing that happened last night except that I was at a party. "I-I, W-we.." I couldn't get the words out of my mouth. Was I suppose to casually ask, 'Hey why am I in your bed?' or 'Did we sleep together last night?'"Why am I here?" I finally asked."Oh, last night --"Before he could finish his sentence I anxiously cut him off, "We couldn't have possibly…"He looked at me dumbfounded. Sorry?""I mean this just feels so wrong!" I said as I looked at him with guilt-filled eyes.His eyes slowly began to widen as he finally understood what I was trying to say. "It's not like that!" He waved both of his hands in front of him. "You blacked out last night at the party and Nana couldn’t take you back to her house so she asked to borrow my place for you to stay. She didn't want your parents to worry and her parents didn't want guests over so that's why you're here."Oh Nana. Leaving me in the hands of someone I wasn't close to."Oh." I looked down relieved but then remembered what I was wearing. "You didn't change me did you?" I was dying for the answer to be no."No. Nana changed you into my clothes before she left here." He rubbed his neck embarrassed. I let out a sigh of relief and felt a zing of life come back to me."Soo.. are you okay?" He looked at me with concern."I feel a bit unwell." I looked down at my barefeet, ashamed that he was seeing me in my worst state."Do you want to take some medicine?""It's okay, I better get going now."- - -Instead of leaving right away, I ended up in his bathroom fixing my smeared make-up face and disastrous hair before going to the kitchen where Suho was intending to make us breakfast. "So you live alone?" I asked as I looked around the kitchen that was tidily organized."Yeah, I moved out alone about a year ago." He pulled out a pan from a cabinet and began to fix up something.There was moment of silence between us. It was my first time alone with a guy. Alone with a guy in m style="line-height:1.6;">his house. Although there were only two of us, I felt a sense of security being at his place. There was a gut feeling telling me that Suho could be trusted and that nothing wasn't going to happen between us."I'm really sorry for bothering you. For everything from yesterday to today, and now you're making me breakfast.""It's okay," he let out a soft chuckle." I haven't had breakfast with anyone in a really long time. It's nice to have company sometimes you know?"How lonely it must be to live alone, I thought to myself."Yeah.." I trailed off as I looked outside the window of the apartment. "Hmm, doesn't your girlfriend come over often?" Usually I would not dig deeper into other people's personal lives but somehow my mouth found a way of its own."I don't have one," he simply said as he walked to the fridge to pull out some eggs from the drawer.I felt my face getting red but after hearing him say those words my heart strangely felt lighter."Oh sorry," I quietly apologized."It's okay." He turned around to give me a small smile as if he was reassuring me that my sudden question didn't offend him in anyway.I felt myself tense up at his small action.The Suho who I had first met two weeks ago from the party, didn’t seem so cold and distant anymore. After the day I had spent with him, Nana, and Sungjae at the amusement park, I saw a different side to him. He was genuine and a lot more friendly than I had assumed; although he wasn’t expressive with words, there was something that made me want to get to know him more.His smile that was once so foreign to me was beginning to grow on me. As he turned around to walk to the stove with his backside facing me, my heart did something abnormal- it skipped a beat. - - - - -Sorry if this chapter is short and lacking.
