stepping inside of the house finally after drying her tears up a bit, Chaerin was met with two guys eagerly looking towards the front door.
"I'll uh....give you two some space" Jeno said, quickly understanding that he was not meant to be in the picture at the moment. haechan tensed up his shoulders slightly, seeing her tear stained cheeks, wanting to protect her from everything that was making her sad.
"babe-"
"can I have a hug?"
she didn't have to ask him twice. with softened eyes he got up off the steps that he was seated on and walk towards her body, placing his arms around her carefully, showing her that he was there. and she did the same, clinging onto him, letting her emotions seep through the contact, showing him that he was all she needed.
"what's wrong?" haechan whispered, planting a kiss at the top of her head lovingly.
"I don't....I don't know why I feel g-guilty" she cried, and as much as he wanted to tell her that she didn't need to feel that way, he respected her enough to Express her true emotions
"I know what she did was wrong....really, really wrong....just-I don't know......I just miss her" she said, nuzzling her face into his neck. he hummed in response, not fully knowing what to say
"sorry I know you're angry bu-"
"I'm not angry, I swear" haechan said, with a reassuring smile planted on his face as he looked down at her
"she was your best friend, I should have considered that before I tried to make decisions for you. i will never know the memories you have with her so...I'm sorry if I went a bit overboard" he apologised
"I'm not angry at you either" she said with a small smile, using his white shirt to wipe of her tears which thankfully went unknown by him, but even his he knew he wouldn't mind.
"you feeling any better now that you know why she did it?" haechan asked out of curiosity
"no...not exactly. I thought I would but....just made me wish things were different really. anyway it doesn't matter now, she's gone" chaerin said and haechan hummed, stroking her hair comfortingly
"maybe it's for the best" he said and she smiled
"I'll forgive her but....I won't be friends with her, I think I owe myself that much" Chaerin said, with a final smile, one that didn't meet her eyes but a smile nonetheless. haechan nodded in agreement, allowing them both to bask in a moment of comfortable silence.
"I love you" he said, his lips meeting her forehead and his hands her her tiny fingers, stuffed away beneath the cuffs of the large sweatshirt, his sweatshirt.
"I love you too baby bear" she said, trying to lighten up the mood and he did chuckle at the nickname
"baby bear?" he questioned
"that's what you look like" she said, giggling
"well....sure I guess bears can be big and strong like me" he said, his ego getting the best of him making her roll her eyes
"so what like... a grizzly bear, polar b-"
"a teddy bear"

"hey kids, I'mgoing to have a few friends over tonight and it's probably going to be a bit loud....will I book a dinner reservation for you guys or something" Chaerin's mother said, knocking on the bedroom door where she and haechan looked at the polaroid that he once stuffed into her pillow case
"uh...sure...chaerin?" haechan asked Chaerin who was sighing, not feeling in the mood to go out at the moment
"can't your friends come another time, I just want to stay in tonight" Chaerin whined and haechan chuckled, turning back to her mom
"maybe I can book a hotel? you guys are welcome to stay here but it's going to be a bit loud downstairs" her mother replied
"I think...my house is free for the night chae. we can order in and watch some movies?" haechan offered and Chaerin smiled
"I don't want to bother your parents" she said
"they're on a business trip again so you're not bothering anyone....stay the night if you want- if that's okay with you of course" haechan said, slightly widening his eyes as he turned to her mother who wore a small smirk on her lips
"fine by me, use protection kids" her mum said before walking out of the bedroom as Chaerin groaned
"she seems chill with you spending the night" haechan said
"yeah, until I get pregnant" chaerin replied and haechan rolled his eyes
"what happened to the pills" he asked, shoving the boxes to one side of her room to make more space for her
"I haven't been taking them since the hospital so...if we were to do something we'd need condoms"
"so you want to have sex tonight?"
"no I said if we were to-"
"hmmm sure"
Chaerin glared and Haechan and his constant teasing that followed with everything she said.
"oh hey look, its you" she said pointing to the teddy bear on her bed
"haha so funny omg I'm dying hahaha my lungs-"
"shut up"
haechan walked towards the bed, flopping down on it before taking the small stuffed toy into his hands
"what's his name?" haechan asked
"did you just assume his gender?" she asked, raising an eyebrow
"well you did say his gender so my presumptions are correct...let me guess, his name is teddy" haechan said making her stop her actions
"how did you know that?" she asked with a pout
"I didn't, you're just basic" he said with a cheeky smile
"I watched a lot of mr.bean okay?" she said trying to justify the name of the bear
"his full name is teddy lee since mark gave it to me" she said
"you still have it?" he asked and her hands stopped clearing the shelves
"I-I...I'm sorry I..."
"why are you apologising, I'm not jealous...i think it's kinda cute" he said with a small smile
"then why do you look sad?" she asked, slowly walking over to him
"I don't know...I just...never got you anything" he said, holding onto her hips as she straddled his lap, her arms wrapping around his shoulders
"so what?"
"I just....feel like a bad boyfriend like-"
"you don't need to get me anything though...and you're not a bad boyfriend at all" she said
"I know but...mark raised the standards kinda high and....." his voice trailed off as his eyes met with her confused ones
"forget it" he said and she chuckled
"babe, you don't have any competition...if mark raised my standards then great, they're at their highest now that I have you as my boyfriend who, by the way, never fails to make me happy" she said and he blushed at her compliments
"yeah...I guess I am pretty great"
"I will slap you mr.lee"
"mm say that again...but slower" haechan said, trying to put on an overly sexy voice making her roll her eyes
"you're weird as hell"
