"are you nice because you're nice or are you nice because you need something?" jaemin asked me softly with tears in his eyes.
'its not like that jaemin, i promise." i pleaded with watery eyes.
" yes it is y/n, you still love shotaro, i see it every...

" sorry hyejin, i'm going out with jaemin tonight so i won't be able to sleep over, but i'll make sure i can next time." y/n apologized as she closed the front door behind her and waited for her date to pick her up.
"y/n, i'm telling you. don't break jaemins heart. i know you are second guessing this whole thing but don't." y/n heard hyejin say over the phone.
y/n sighed and picked at her nail, "okayyyy," she dragged on, "both you and johnny need stop it's getting kinda annoying. i'm not gonna break up or hurt him." she sternly replied and hung up the phone. she quickly rolled her eyes and whispered to herself, " it's like they think i'm using jaemin to get over shotaro. gimme a break, i don't even think they like me anymore."
the turmoil and tension had grown ever since they had gotten back from japan, y/n felt as though she was losing her two closest friends, they were basically her family.
that was the fifth time hyejin had told her not to hurt jaemin and y/n was getting pretty annoyed and fed up because she felt like they thought she was just using jaemin but she's not...... or maybe she is.
but she'll have to figure that out herself.
"y/n?! i've called your name a couple times now, did something happen?" jaemin interrupted her thought and embraced into a warm hug.
"i-it's nothing just worried about school stuff." she quickly lied and followed jaemin to his car.
"is there anything specific that you have in mind?" jaemin asked as he turned on the car and drove into the main road.
"i'm fine with anything, I just wanna escape reality for a while." y:n responded with a fake smile and glanced outside of the car window, enjoying the sunset.
"look at how pretty the clouds are! it looks like cotton candy" y:n exclaimed and pointed to the sky.
"it's not as pretty as you." jaemin blushed。
"jaeminnnnn," y/n softly hit his arm, "that was the cheesiest thing i have ever heard in my entire 18 years of life!"
"c'mon..... it wasn't that bad." jaemin rolled his eyes, but also kept them on the road.
"i don't know, it was pretty bad." y/n joked back, now holding jaemins soft hand.
"jaemin... you're hand is freezing! i thought i told you to try to keep them warm!" y/n remarked and tried to warm up his hands but it was impossible.
"im sorry, they're only cold when i'm with you! " jaemin replied back and parked the car.
"i hope you like seafood." jaemin sarcastically whispered as he led y/n into a fancy restaurant.
"i hate seafood" y/n quietly thought to herself as she put on a smile and nodded, "i love seafood!" she lied and followed jaemin to a table.
"woah this place is amazing! how did you find it?" y/n held jaemins arm and sat across from him.
the host had seated them right next to a window that showed off the korean nightlife and a beautiful river. the inside of the restaurant was fairly modern with gold and emerald accents. the ceiling was painted to remind you of palaces or maybe even ancient churches in europe.
"jaemin, i feel so out of place here! the view is breathtaking, you can see how everyone is enjoying themselves." y/n pointed to couple, families and just people walking their dogs.
"i want to be like that one day, carefree and happy. not having to worry about anything." jaemin responded back, resting his head on his hand.
he quickly glanced at y/n and then back to the window.
"why can't you do it now? we just graduated all we have to get through is college and we have each other for that!" y/n studied jaemins worried expression.
"jaemin, you have me. you do not have to worry about anything." y/n chided and held his soft hand, which was slowly getting warmer.
-
"y/n, should we go get some ice cream now?" jaemin held y/n's hand and led her to the ice cream shop that was just across the street.
"jaemin, this is an important question," y/n paused and giggled, "chocolate or vanilla? answer carefully!" she warned and waited patiently for an answer.
"hmmmm, i would have to say chocolate!" he raised his eyebrows.
"chocolate? i hâte chocolate! vanilla is way better." y/n answered back with a punch of anger.
"but vanilla is so plain! chocolate is so rich and yummy!" jaemin crossed his arms across his chest waiting for a better response.
"so! vanilla can go with anything. chocolate can only be with chocolate but vanilla can go with anything! i can't believe you don't like vanilla." y/n retorted back with furrowed brows.
"i never said i didn't like vanilla y/n," jaemins took a deep breath, " i just prefer chocolate over vanilla." he calmly announced.
y/n, irritated rolled her eyes at jaemin over this stupid argument, " i can't believe you are arguing over a stupid ice cream flavor," she tsked at jaemin and looked away.
"arguing? i-i just said i liked chocolate! you're right it's just a flavor so why are you getting so heated over it?" jaemin was so confused and wanted to know why she was getting at him!
"because, you're supposed to like everything that i like! if i like vanilla then we will get vanilla!"
"b-but i want chocolate." jaemin pouted and gave aegyo.
but it didn't seem to work on y/n and she looked away and laughed.
"well i wanna go home now." y/n ended their date just like that.
"fine i'll get vanilla." jaemin held onto y/n's arms, not wanting their date to end on a sour note.
"jaemin take me home please, i'm tired. stop acting like a child when you don't get what you want." y/n shot back, her words full of spite.
jaemin, slowly let go of y/n's arm and dragged his feet to his car opening the door for y/n.
without saying thank you she slammed the door and jaemin sighed and questioned this whole date.
"i only said i liked chocolate ice cream though." he fought back tears and smirked to himself, "i'm so pathetic, i should've just gotten vanilla." he remarked to himself and he sat down in his car.
"i'm sorry y/n." jaemin apologized first and glanced at y/n who was busy looking at her phone.
"just take me home jaemin, i'm tired."
the tension in the car was unbearable, jaemin being his self wanted to lighten the mood but y/n was not having it. she avoided his gaze and hand for the rest of the drive home.
"have a good night y/n." jaemin called out as y/n left his car. he was met with his car door closing and a small thank you.
jaemin watched the girl he liked skip to her front door and close it behind her without turning her head to glance at jaemin once.
"i'm sorry y/n, we can do whatever you want next time. i'm really trying though, i saved up some money from my job to buy you a nice dinner. i just really hope you enjoyed and had a fun time, i'm sorry for ruining your night. sleep well." jaemin mumbled to himself wishing y/n was still in his car, "i didn't even have the chance to give you a hug." he puffed out his bottom lip and drove home.
