YuYan One Shots

It's got to be you

"I'm sorry Yan, but I only see you as a Sister." Once those words escaped my mouth, I immediately felt like taking them back. Those doe eyes that looked so lively before, looked so broken and vulnerable now. I reached forward to take Yuyan's hand in mine, but seeing as how she pulled back, made me feel a pang in my heart. Why? I had no idea too. Without another word, Yuyan turned around, and swiftly left the room.

The next few weeks, it felt weird not having to talk to my best friend. There was a drastic change between me and Yuyan's friendship. No more hugs and kisses from her. No more cheesy pickup lines. No more cute nicknames. I never realized how used I was to hearing her call me "Xie Xue" until she started calling me "Shaking". Just hearing that word from her mouth and knowing that it is directed at me felt so strange. To put it simply, I hated it.

Our mutual circle of friends have noticed the change in our relationship and have started questioning us. However, since Yuyan knew that I hated confrontations, she always deliberately directed their attention to another topic. That simple action of hers made my heart skipped a beat.

I've tried ignoring the beating of my heart whenever Yuyan was around by talking to the others, but it never seemed to work. Slowly, me and Yuyan began to be distant from one another. She had found another clique of friends, and I had found mine.

There was this one girl in her clique, Dia Meng, that also liked Yuyan. I would always spot the both of them hanging out together all the time. Be it the weekends, or the holidays. Sometimes, I would envy Dia Meng, but never bothered to watch them for long before leaving, as I could not bear to stomach the sight.

One day, while we were having English class, we were informed that we had a group project to be done in pairs. I used to love group projects as that meant I could spend more time with Yuyan, but seeing as our relationship had changed, it meant that I would be doing it with someone else for once.

Immediately, many girls rushed to my table and started bombarding me with requests. Oh did I forget to mention that I was popular among the girls too?

"Shaking, would you like to be my partner?"

"Keyin, please pick me to be your partner, I'll do anything."

Ugh, I was not interested in any of them, and a certain tall brunette was the only one that I cared to pair up with. Mustering my courage, I took a deep breath and walked over to Yuyan's table. I quietly chuckle to myself as I saw her facing out the window. She never bothered to pick partners as she would always end up doing the work all by herself, hence she would rather use the energy to persuade some random classmate to be her partner on doing something more useful, or in her case, daydreaming.

I stood in front of her table and cleared my throat. "Ahem."

"Sheesh. God, Shaking you gave me a heart attack." She placed her hand in front of her heart, while looking at me from head to toe.

"Yanzi, would you be my partner for the project?" I held my breath while patiently waiting for her answer. She gave me a questioning look, as if deciding if I was playing a prank on her. She wandered her eyes around, and said "Uh, s-sure."

"Great, I'll go over to your house at 5. See you later!" I quickly took my bag and sprinted out of the class as soon as I heard the bell ring when Yuyan gave me her answer. I can't wait!

Uhm, how come no one told me that it would be this awkward when working on a project with your used-to-be Best Friend. Literally, none of us have spoken a word since we agreed on our individual tasks. I was leaning against her bed frame while sitting cross-legged on her bed, while Yuyan was lying on the floor with her laptop. Deciding that it was time to break the silent game, I spoke up, "S-so Yan, how have you been? It's been a while since we last hung out alone hasn't it?" Damn it, why did I stutter?

Yuyan looked at me with an unreadable expression, and said, "oh uhm, y-yeah it has, haha." She awkwardly laughed at the end. Oh alright, that's it!

"Why are you being so awkward around me?" I needed answers and fast. If Yuyan was not going to provide them, I would extract them from her, even if I had to use force.

"Huh? I'm not understanding your question, Shaking." Losing my patience, I stood from the bed and went to squat beside her. I stared at her, while trying to figure out what was going on in her head.

"Why are you giving me your infamous 'Are you serious look'?"

"You know what, forget it. I'll just do the project at my house." I quickly stood up and started stuffing my notes into my bag. Just as I was about to turn the knob to exit, I was suddenly trapped between Yuyan's slender arms. Realizing our positions, my eyes grew wide. Yuyan however, seemed to be oblivious about it.

"Why are you acting like this Shaking? First you say you only see me as a Sister, next you come up to me and ask if you would like to do a project together, but get unhappy the next moment. Can you make your mind up, cause I'm losing my patience." After those words left her lips, I saw how her eyes looked so broken. How badly I wanted to fix the sadness in her eyes. Then, I understood what my heart wanted. I never wanted to see Yuyan sad again, as if it would break me too. I wanted to protect her and shield her from all the pain.

"Yuyan, I don't know why I let you go. I learned it the hard way whenever I saw you together with Dia Meng. I was a fool to have not known how lucky I was, until I saw you with someone else. Yanzi, I like you too, please give me a chance to make it right."

Hearing my confession, Yuyan held my cheek with her hand, and I leaned into her touch. Everything felt right in that moment. Her thumb caressed my cheek while she spoke "When I walked away, my heart tried to replace you, but I could never find it. It's gotta be you, Xie Xue. I don't want nobody else but you. I'll be waiting, take your time, cause I'll be here."

With that, I wrapped my arms around her waist, as if afraid that I'll lose her once I let go. That day, I understood something, that I belonged to Yuyan and no one else, just like how Yuyan belonged to me.
