Let Me In || Jungwon

34 - Together Always...?

- Sunni PoV -

"Hey you..."

I walk out of the bathroom to see Jungwon leaning against the wall next to the girls bathroom. He must've followed me here.

"Somethings up," he says searching my face. 

"Am I not your girlfriend anymore?" I question.

He scrunches up his face in confusion.

"What?" He questions. 

"We're not dating... remember?" I cross my arms looking down at my feet.

He scoffs, "Kim Sunni you're a piece of work you know that?"

I snap up at him, "Ya!"

He steps closer to me. 

"First you tell me not tell anyone we're dating or even look like we're dating so people wouldn't be angry and now you're mad at me for dismissing them when you were getting hurt?" He says making.. total sense...

Why am I like this? God, Kim Sunni...

"I love you," he says.

I meet his eyes... his sincere eyes...

"I said what I said because I saw you getting hurt because of me," he explains. "That's it."

I let out a sigh. I'm so disappointed in myself. How can I just be so stupid to think that?

"I'm sorry, it's just," I pause. "I keep thinking about the future and I just felt like..."

I stop myself. I don't want to put it out in the universe.

"Like we're breaking up?" Jungwon finishes like always.

I nod slowly. I don't want to come to terms with it...

He sighs and starts to slowly stroke my hair.

"Who said we're breaking up?" he questions.

Huh?

"No one said that. Do you want to break up with me?" 

I shake my head no.

"Last time I checked I don't want to breath up with you, so what's up with you thinking that kind of stuff?" He questions.

He pulls me into a warm hug.

"But Jungwon... you know how it is..." I say in his chest.

He looks down at me, "No... I don't actually, so shut up."

My jaw drops. The savagery.

"Did you just... tell me to shut up?" I question glaring at him.

He nods, "And I'll do it again."

I scoff. He has no fear. 

He lets out a giggle as he pinches my cheek.

"We'll get out of here soon," he says. "We should... go to Hanlim."

"Hanlim?" 

He nods, "Once we officially become trainees at SM, we should audition and transfer over there. It'll be better for us."

Should I tell him now? Or?...

Before I can even say anything, he pulls me into another hug.

"We'll stay together for a long time, " he says. "We'll be beside each other... cheering each other on."

Wednesday - Day of auditions

Despite my mom telling me I couldn't audition, I still practiced with Jungwon for hours upon hours.
