EIGHTEEN || 2YEON

CHAPTER TWENTY

3rd Person's POV

They were now sitting on the grass while facing the small built stage infront of them. The surroundings were filled by fairy lights and you can see the moon shining brightly upon them. The surroundings was filled with the sounds of the soft guitar playing as a student volunteered to play the guitar. They were just jamming to the song. Jeongyeon was just straight up staring at Nayeon, watching her sing along to the song. Jeongyeon's thoughts were cut off when someone tapped her from the back.

"Can we talk?" A tall girl asked. Jeongyeon thought for a second before nodding and standing up to talk to the girl.

"I'll be back soon." Jeongyeon told Jihyo who was beside him. Nayeon's eyes followed Jeongyeon and the tall girl, which she clearly knows who, to where they are going.

"Let's go straight to the point. I know you're aware about the marriage right. I just want to get to know you and uhm I guess start things slowly." The tall girl said

"Sooyoung, we can be friends that's it but just that. I know enough of this marriage and I don't want you to regret any of it. The both of us to regret about the possibility of we will do." Jeongyeon already told the girl.

"What do you mean." Joy was confused to what Jeongyeon just said.

"Look, just spend your time with Sungjae. You love him right? Then show him that." Jeongyeon said which shocked the girl.

"H-How did you know about him?" Joy asked

"That's not what's important right now. Just listen to me huh." Jeongyeon said and was about to leave when Joy grabbed his wrist.

"I'm scared Jeong, I don't want dad to hurt him just for his business shit." Joy said. Jeongyeon smiled at her as she knows the girl's worry.

"Nothing will happen to him. Trust me. Just tell me if you need anything." Jeongyeon said which reassured the tall girl. Joy showed her signature smile before nodding. Jeongyeon went towards one of the teachers whose handling the mini concert they're having.

"Oh Jeongyeon-ah, what brought you here?" Ms. Jung asked

"Can I sing?" Jeongyeon asked with a chuckle.

"All of a sudden? Sure though, after that student from Saebom." Ms. Jung said. The girl from the other school finished her performance as Jeongyeon went up to the stage, grabbing a guitar with him.

"Uhm hello, I'm Yoo Jeongyeon from Seoul University." He said with a small chuckle. "You probably haven't heard this song but yeah, I hope you'll like it." Jeongyeon added He started to strum the guitar to the tune of the song. All ears are on him.

"I got a heart, and I got a soul
Believe me, I will use them both
We made a start
Be it a false one, I know
Baby, I don't want to feel alone"

Jeongyeon smiled as he started singing. Looking at the guitar while he strums it.

"So kiss me where I lay down
My hands pressed to your cheeks
A long way from the playground"

Jeongyeon looked up to Nayeon and since then they can't take out their stare at each other.

"I have loved you since we were 18
Long before we both thought the same thing
To be loved and to be in love
All I can do is say that these arms
Are made for holding you, oh-oh
I wanna love like you made me feel
When we were 18~"

Nayeon's lips carved a smile as Jeongyeon sang. Nayeon remembered the old days with Jeongyeon. Jeongyeon continued the rest of the song without breaking eye contact with Nayeon.

" When we were 18~"

All the students clapped at him. They were all amazed at how good Jeongyeon's voice was. Jeongyeon smiled very sweetly at the crowd as he looks away from Nayeon.

"Thank you!" He said as he stood up and bowed

"What a great performance to wrap up the night and that ends our first day in this camping! You can do anything now." Ms. Jung said as she pats Jeongyeon's back.

Jeongyeon's POV

I placed the guitar down on its stand before going down the stage. I was welcomed by the boys.

"Looks like our Jeongyeonie is inlove." Byul teased me as he placed his arms around my shoulders.

"Oh shut up." I said rolling my eyes.

"Who wrote that song?" Seulgi asked me as we walked towards where the bonfire is.

"Oh a friend of mine." I said

"Didn't know you have a songwriter as a friend." Dahyun said. We were just joking around while sitting by the bonfire. Some of the students are on their tents and some of them are just roaming around the camp site. I think the teachers are having a meeting at the bus.

"Yoo Jeongyeon, nice show earlier." Kyungsoo walked towards us while clapping his hands. "Attention seeker aren't we?"

"Where's the attention seeker there? I just sang? What's such a big deal to that?" I asked sarcastically.

"Clearly trying to get Nayeon's attention. Can't you just take it that she really likes me?" Kyungsoo said that made me laugh. Is he kidding me right now?

"I didn't know that pets are allowed here in the camp site." Tzuyu said crossing his hands.

"Excuse me?" Suho asked from Kyungsoo's behind

"Oh I thought pets weren't allowed here. Clearly barking dogs suddenly got here. Want some dog food and stop your nonsense shit?" Tzuyu said savagely.

"Stop ruining the night ugly fuckers." Lisa said and threw a small rock at Kai's head. "Oops sorry, I accidentally hit you." Lisa said with an annoying smile.

"You bitch." Kai was about to punch Lisa when Kyungsoo stopped him.

"Listen to me Kyungwan, Nayeon is mine. She won't be yours understand?" Kyungsoo said which made me reach my limit.

"Dream all you want, but just a reminder she will never be yours." I spat at him. I stood up from my sitting and was about to walk away when he punched me making me fall to the ground.

"You bastard." Byul was about to punch Kyungsoo when I signalled him to don't. I held my lips which was busted because of his punch.

"Nayeon is easily to fool so I'll get her in no time and once I have her you'll never get to touch her again." Kyungsoo said. I stood up and grabbed on his collar. I was about to punch him but I refrained myself from doing so.

"Go on punch me." He said with his annoying ass face.

"Listen here your little shit." I started. "Don't you dare play on Nayeon again or you will not receive just a punch from me."

"And what if I did?" He chuckled. I punched him back and just held onto his collar so he wont fall. Chaeyoung and Dahyun are trying to pull me off him. While Kyungsoo's friends are just watching us.

"Let him be." I heard Tzuyu said.

"I won't let you. I won't let you hurt her." I said sternly. "Damn Kyung! All the people and things that I have you stole it already! You stole my dad! You stole my family! You stole my life! And I'm not letting you steal my everything from me! I know I don't own her, but Nayeon is my everything. She's everything I would wish the world for and I'm not letting you just toy with her around. I regretted everything that I did before to her or the things I would do to her so don't treat her like a piece of shit." I breathed out for a second while trying hard not to let my tears fall. I loosened my grip on him. "I'll let you have my life but not Nayeon."

I pushed him down to the floor. I looked at my surroundings. The students who witnessed what happened has their eyes on us, whispering with what they just witnessed. A certain person caught my eyes. Her tears rolling down her cheeks with mouth open.

"I'm going." I said. "I've warned you." I said with a glare at Kyungsoo who was still at the ground. I walked away and pass Nayeon.

"Jeong." I heard her whisper as I passed by. She called me a multiple times louder but I didn't mind looking back. I just ran towards the river not minding the other students.
