after jungwon pushed areum into the pool we all laughed at her. jake came towards me as we were kinda far from the others.

"so when you gonna make your move bro" jake said whispering and i looked at him confused.

"you know what i mean, i've seen the way you look at her" jake said whispering. i was looking at areum and she was with heeseung. he kept holding onto her, and i felt my heart clutching.

"i don't know, what if she doesn't feel the same way?" i quietly said and jake laughed at me.

"bro y'all are practically soulmates what do you mean" he said smacking me playfully and i guess that was somewhat true. jake left to go back to joohee and i was standing there watching areum. heeseung was being very touchy and i felt anger building up. i tried to calm it down. my heart was beating fast.

"why is my heart beating so dam fast" areum said as she stopped splashing water at heeseung.

"you're like burning up" heeseung said as he touched her forehead. i got even more jealous, was that the right term? jealous?

"calm down sunghoon, i think you're affecting it to her too" niki said and i was finally calming down.

"it's gone now" areum said.

"why don't we get out of the pool now" heeseung said and we all got out of the pool. i thanked niki, but i was confused. why did her heart start beating fast as mine was. i catched up to her.

"areummmm" i said as i put my arms around her. she looked at me with her cute face.

"what" she said chuckling and i didn't say anything.

"well if you're not gonna say anything i'm gonna go shower" she said and i stopped her just to look at her face once more.

"what are you doing?" she said.

"nothing nothing go shower" i said and she left with a confused face, i chuckled. i thought about what jake said and maybe it was time to say something but i was scared. i went to find jake.

"jakeee" i said and he was sitting on the couch.

"yeah?" he said and i sat next to him.

"so how did you tell joohee you liked her" i asked trying to get advice. he immediately started smiling. should i had even asked?

"well i wasn't scared if she felt the same way or not because i knew i loved her no matter what. she's the one for me. if she didn't love me i would still love her. i took her outside to the grassy field by the garden and i told her how i felt. she said she felt the same way, and ever since that day we became the lovebirds" he said chuckling. him and joohee were literal soulmates too.

"are you thinking about confessing to you know" jake said and i nodded.

"just do what comes from your heart. something that you'll both love" jake said and i nodded and thanked him.

i finally got done showering and changed. i headed downstairs to find sunghoon to tell him he could go shower now. he was downstairs trying to play pool but he looked funny.

"that's not how you play" i said chuckling and he stopped.

"well then help me" he said and i went over to him.

"you hold it like this" i said putting my hands over his to help his position. i didn't notice until now sunghoon was looking at me. his face was leaning in towards mine. i really wanted to kiss him for some reason.

"hey" heeseung said out of nowhere and we moved away from each other quickly.

"sunghoon you can go shower now" i said and he dragged me with him.

"why'd you bring me with" i said confused.

"i was gonna hang with heeseung" i said and he looked at me shocked. my heart started beating fast again for no reason.

"oh nothing i'm gonna go shower now" sunghoon said and i thought he was being weird. the heartbeat stopped again. was it sunghoon's heartbeat?

"areummmmm" joohee said skipping over to me. i snorted at her.

"let's go play games downstairs" she said and i nodded. we went back downstairs but heeseung was gone.

"you suck joohee" i said chuckling as we were playing darts. her darts kept hitting the wall instead of the actual target.

"shut up" she said laughing. sunghoon came downstairs as he was drying his hair with his towel. he looked so good, my heart was beating fast. sunghoon held onto his heart and smirked at me.

"why you smirking at me" i said and he just laughed. joohee left to go find jake as she saw me with sunghoon.

"i know that's your heartbeat" he said chuckling and i was right about it earlier.

"so we're you mad about heeseung earlier then" i said chuckling and he stopped smiling cause i caught him.

"oh shut uppp and follow me" he said grabbing my wrist and we went outside.

"let's sit on the hammock" he said and he went in first and had his arms opened for me to lay with him. i went into his arms, and he was warm.

"why you doing this all of a sudden" i asked and my heart was beating fast again. something felt different or off about sunghoon.

"i wanna tell you something" he said and i looked at him while i was in his arms.

"you know ever since i came here, you caught my attention from the beginning. that's why i sat next to you instead of joohee. you've made me feel so happy that i've never felt in my past life. i don't want you to think it's all because of our connection that we already have because of ari and sangwoo. i genuinely feel this way for you before we even found out about this. even if you don't feel the same way. you're always gonna be my forever love. even if we reincarnated, i'll never forget you lee areum. you're the one for me and always will be. and so i wanted to tell you that i love you" sunghoon said as his heart was beating fast and i could feel it too. i sat up and looked at him.

"sooo" he said nervously and i cupped his face and kissed him passionately. it was like our lips were waiting for this and it needed this. a tear dropped and sunghoon opened his eyes. our bodies were lighting up a bit, like our veins.

"why are you crying" he asked as he wiped my tears.

"cause i love you too park sunghoon" i said smiling at him and he kissed me again as our bodies lit up.
