Beautiful Pain (True Beauty Fanfiction)

Chapter 30

School, the most dreaded thing in the universe. After hiding my face I start to feel out of place at school. I was glad the stares was getting lesser and nobody was paying attention to me.

"Did you hear about the news?!" Soo-A approached my desk once I enter the class. I shook my head before she opens her phone.

A video of Nara being exposed of drugging me. Lots of comment poured out which I don't feel any sympathy for. She deserves every bit of it.

"I heard she transferred school. Along with Sang-Hoon." Soo-Jin spoke which makes me happy. This is what I needed to brighten my day. Sitting on the chair, I smile that everything was finally over.

Or so I thought.

I was walking until I saw Joo-Kyung inside the classroom. She placed her head down with eyes closed. I made my way inside and turn the light on. Which got her attention.

"You know this isn't the most comfortable place to sleep." I said before making my way towards her. She smiles, but I felt nothing but bitterness.

She was the one who took Suho from me.

"Must be nice getting Suho attention on you. I'm jealous. I thought when I came back we would get back together. It was a selfish dream." I confessed truthfully. The amount of time Suho told me he would break up with her was a lie. He didn't do it. Joo-Kyung looks uncomfortable with the way I talked. Glancing at the window, I finally stood up. The chair makes a screech that can be heard in the room.

"And for that I will never forgive you Joo-Kyung. Because I will always believe Suho should be with me." My tone was sharp, and it meant I was serious. Leaving the girl alone, I hope she realized I could never be her friends.

"Wait Chae-Rin!" My path was blocked when somebody stood in front of me. He grips my wrist making our eyes meet.

"What Suho?" Even if we are friends, the feeling of our skin touches makes my heart thumped. I watched the expression of his face, nervous and afraid. 

"This Sunday, let's go out." I was about to speak before he ran away. Leaving me once again. His action makes me confused, like a little kid he speaks one sentence that makes me question what it is.

The whole week I never speak with Suho. Due to him being around Joo-Kyung at school. Which make me notice how stray our relationship is. But Sunday came by and he actually keeps his words. He arrived at my apartment, and we drive off to an unknown destination.

"Can you please tell me where we are going at least?" The silence was bugging me off, and I had to ask him something. Holding on to the seatbelt he chuckles to my question.

"Is a surprise." It's rare to see Suho driving but on special occasion like this, it must be somewhere far. I wonder why he wanted to hang out with me, does Joo-Kyung even know about this?

So many question so little answer.

We arrived no more than half an hour later. I was the first to open the car to see where we are. My mouth hangs open as memory flooded in. He took me to an amusement park. When we were dating, I begged Suho to take me here twice. 

"Stop standing there and let's go!" Suho shake me out of dazed and went to the entrance. He was prepared because he pulled out two tickets from his back pocket. No wonder why we go here on the weekend. There's so much thing to explore. The enormous place to roam and play. Eat and even enjoy the day. This is an escape from reality.

"I want to ride that!" I pointed at the wooden rollercoaster. I didn't get on it last time and I wanted to make this a thrilling ride for both of us.

"That...?" Suho gulped his saliva. He fears height but seeing the starry eyes I gave was enough to oblige. We were queuing and next we were sitting down.

"God please don't let me die here..." Suho whispered to hisself as we buckle our seat. His face turned pale as if he saw a ghost.

"Don't worry, I'm here." I reassure before clutching on his hand. Once the ride started, I scream my lung out. Feeling the wind and speed of the ride, I could feel my adrenaline rush. Suho, on the other hand, hold my hand as if his life depends on it. I could hear the terrified scream escape from his mouth until the finishing ride. I wanted to laugh at it, but I shouldn't. He conquers his fear of heights  just to ride with me.

"Is alright now. You're on the ground." I rubbed his back when I could tell his head was spinning. He was dizzy, and it took him a couple of minutes to gather his soul.

"I don't know why you like dangerous rides." I giggle when he still can make comment on it. As my sorry I treat him for an ice cream. Licking the chocolate ice cream his eyes stare at me.

"What?"

"You have ice cream on the corner of your lip." He spoke, my finger try to wipe it off but he shakes his head.

"Here." Instead, his finger brushes it off. His head was close to mine but he back away once it's done. I could feel my heart ready to jump out from my body and be connected with his.

"Let's go on the next rides!" I spoke too enthusiastically. It was a shame that the rides I wanted was crazier than this. Suho looks drained due to the activities and I felt bad about it.

So we switched to see animals, where we get to see them eating and playing. With this Suho looks calmer and his cool sides came back. We saw giraffes eating and monkey swinging left to right. I laugh when one of them fell down. 

The day turned into night and before we leave we stay to watch the night parade. Plus the firework shows.

"Chae-Rin..." Suho spoke my name. I turned my head and look at him, despite people crowding our space.

"I'm really glad that we met and dated."

"What are you saying?" I laugh trying my best to know what he means.

"I'm sorry I have to do this?" With a confused look, Suho pulled me away from the crowded area.

"Suho what are -"

I couldn't finish my sentence when he crashed his lip to mine. My eyes widened in realization. At the same time firework soar across the sky spreading it's colorful color. My attention should have been on that but instead I focus on us. Our lip that molded into one, makes me melt in second compare to the ice cream we ate. Suho wrapped his hand around my waist, and I hold his arm feeling my leg weakening. I have been dying to kiss him, to feel him close. I was touch by heaven once again.

And heaven is Lee Suho.
