Hyewon// Don't Delete The Kisses

Chapter Five

It's like midnight rn and I should be sleeping but I'm in the mood for writing so let's go I guess lmao. Also, keep streaming paint the town we're doing well orbits. Getting Haseul her first win no matter what. Anyways, let's get back to my story.

P.S From now on the events will be happening after a time skip (two months) because I think it will help the story develop better.

Time passed by very quickly and before I had noticed it, two months had ended. At this point, I had pretty much gotten used to everything. College life wasn't easy and my performance wasn't getting any better either, but, I was more energetic than ever. And that was because of a certain someone I had recently been spending a lot of time with.

Chaewon.

Chaewon is like a happy pill. No matter how tired I feel, just seeing her smile is enough to light up my heart and make my day. At this point, I'm not even trying to deny my feelings for her. I've accepted the fact that I have a crush. A BIG one. But, there is no way I would be able to confess to her. Our friendship is too precious to be ruined by something that trivial and, also, just as Haseul once said to me, I don't think I'd be able to hear her say no to me. It would be too painful. So, I keep the feelings for myself in hopes that she wouldn't notice the stares I try to steal away every time she's not looking at me, or the fact that I'd never do this amount of favors for anyone else, or the fact that I'm willing to go anywhere, anytime, just to be able to spend more time with her. To be honest, if I were her, I'd probably have noticed such behavior by now. She just doesn't seem attentive enough to do so. In any case, I'm fine with her not noticing. If she were to confront me out of the blue, I'd just get scared out of my mind.

Speaking of spending as much time with her as possible, I was once again doing that after classes. I honestly had no one else to spend time with, as Yeojin and Yerim had their daily studying sessions (which probably evolved into something else every time but I don't want to know what/think about it) and also actively denied their relationship which just pissed me off. So, because of this, I had no other choice but to spend breaks with Chaewon and, sometimes, her friends. This time it was me, Chaewon, Heejin, and Hyunjin. Heejin and Hyunjin were once again acting like the married couple that they truly are, while I and Chaewon were basically third-wheeling. But, when you do it a lot of times, you get used to it. We were talking about something when I saw Jungeun in the distance. She saw me too and I signed her to get closer to us. She seemed alone, so I didn't think that she would mind spending time with us. At last, she did come up to where we were sitting:

"Hey Hyunjin, Heejin, Chaewon"

"Hello there, Jungeun. I haven't really been seeing you around lately. What have you been up to?"- asked Heejin.

"Eh, nothing much, I just have a lot of work. Professors don't understand that I don't have all the time in the world".

"I think all of us relate to that. By the way, I don't know if this is too private or not but I just have to ask. A while ago, Sooyoung told us about how you received a confession from someone and that you hadn't yet made a decision. I was expecting to find out what your decision was but the news died out as quickly as they appeared. So, I just wanna ask, what did you say? Are you dating the dude or no?"- asked Hyunjin who is no stranger to confrontational questions.

Jungeun stood in silence for a moment and then replied: "Well, to be honest, I never met him that day. I decided not to at the end and he didn't try to confess to me anymore either. I suppose he decided to accept his defeat. In any case, I have no regrets. I'm not down to date a dude at this point anyway".
