The Dare

Busted

Junhyung sighs heavily.

"Are you okay?" Jihyun asked tapping his shoulder.

"I'm not okay Ji. I know that by this time, they were suspecting us." He muttered.

"I know. All I want is to keep Hyuna safe in Hyunseung's arms." Jihyun mumbled smiling fakely.

"You still love him, don't you?"

She nodded still smiling, but the tears didn't lie and fell down her eyes.

"I still love him. So much."

"But why did you let go?" Junhyung asked frowning.

"Because I love him."

"What?"

"There are times that even if you love someone, that doesn't mean you need to be with them. Because, letting go is not about being bored out of love. It's about being completely in love but you know what's the best for the both of you."

"But, letting go isn't the best thing Jihyun. It's about fighting for him." Junhyung groaned.

Jihyun shook her head, "I want the best for them." while wiping her tears away.

"You should rest. It's been a few days of your stay in this hospital. Hyunseung's been texting me about you, asking where are we. I told him don't worry."

She nodded and lay down the hospital bed, "Thank you."

-

"I wonder where Jihyun and Junhyung is." Hyuna mumbled walking to the canteen.

"That's what I've been suspecting." Hyunseung muttered.

"You shouldn't doubt the one you love." Hyuna retorted.

That's why I don't doubt you! Hyunseung groaned.

"What?" Hyuna raised an eyebrow.

"We'll be eating recess." He spoke grabbing her hand.

"But I want to visit Jihyun!" Hyuna yelled.

He looked at her sharply, then sighed-

"Let's go."

Hyuna dialed Jihyun's number;

"Hello?"
"JIHYUN! I missed you! Where are you?"
"Hyuna?"
"Yes!"
"I'm in the house."

Hyuna hanged up and drag Hyunseung outside the school.

"Hey! We have classes!" He retorted.

"Oh c'mon. Don't be a gay and go with Jihyun!" She smiled jumping like a kid.

"I don't care." He yelled.

"Jihyun. You love her, right?"

"I'm already falling for you, Hyuna."

Her eyes widen, but then she broke out a huge grin,

"What a great joke! Now c'mon!"

"I'm not shitting with you." He spoke in a cold tone.

She stopped her laugh and look at him directly in the eyes.

"How can you love someone that you're just using?"

This wasn't part of the plan.

Damn it, Hyunseung.

He smiled fakely and nodded.

"Figured you will said that." He started to walk away.

"You aren't gonna come with me?" She asked.

"You can go." He muttered hiding his teary voice.

"I will." She mumbled walking away.

Hyunseung silently walked along the school canteen.

"Hyunseung?" Sohyun asked waving her hand in his face.

Finally, a tear started to fall in his eyes.

"Hyunseung!" Sohyun shook his shoulders.

"I messed up, Sohyun. I fucking messed up." He smiled fakely.

"To what?!" Sohyun panicked.

"Hyuna... She doesn't believe me anymore."

Sohyun's eyes soften.

"Where is she?"

"Jihyun's house."

Sohyun sighed and mumbled, "You should've told her the truth."

"How can I fight for her when she won't fight for me?"

"Are you sure?"

He looked up,

"it's not about begging for
Her to fight back for you. It's not about that. It's all about fighting for what you love. As long as you know you did more than enough, then that's how you prove how much you love a person."

Hyunseung smiled and ruffled Her hair,

"I'll chase her. And fight for her."

-

"Are you there?" Hyuna asked knocking multiple times on the door.

"Come in." A male voice spoke.

Junhyung?

She opened the door and saw Junhyung sitting on the couch while Jihyun is laying on the bed.

"Junhyung?"

Junhyung shrugged smiling and exchanged a glance with Jihyun.

"Hyuna." He spoke standing.

"Ne?"

He sighed heavily and said, "What's your relationship with Hyunseung?"

She raised an eyebrow, "haven't we talked about this?"

He sighed once again, "You don't understand at all."

"Isn't he using me?" She snapped.

Junhyung dragged her hand outside the house,

"I was supposed to ask if she's okay. I'm not here to determine my relationship with someone."

"He's sacrificing. You know that?"

"Sacrificing? Yes, For her. Not for me. So it's not my business anymore. If there's someone who is worth fighting for, I guess it's her. Because-"

"He fucking loves you." He snapped.

"He doesn't!"

Junhyung groaned and shook her shoulders,

"Look at his eyes and tell him you don't love him."

"Hyuna?" A voice came from behind.

She turned around and saw-

Hyunseung.
