Fitting in - J. Soorim / reader

~2~

        I was hanging out in Hooni's apartment room reading my favorite manga until someone knocked on the door. Hooni went to go check who it was. The door opened and revealed a boy around our age with yellow-blonde hair and a pretty casual outfit.

"Hey, Hooni! I brought snacks-!" He stops halfway through his sentence and his eyes roll over to me. "... is this your sister?" Do we really look that alike? Nahhhh- "No, this is my friend..." He looks confused for a moment, but then a bright smile replaces it. "Nice to meet you! I'm Jeong Soorim." He holds out his hand. Ok, he's kind of hot ngl "I'm Y/n L/n..." I say awkwardly and shake his hand. Well, he can't be that bad, right? We both hold eye contact, and I swear I saw a slight dust of pink on his face before he turned away. "Well, anyway, why are you here again?" "right! I brought snacks for us to share."

Hooni's face lit up like a star. I've never seen him so happy before... they must be really good friends! Oooor, he just wants food lol. We talk for a bit and get to know each other, I think we're friends, or at least acquaintances now!

"Oh! Y/n, I think I have seen you before! At room ### right??" "Huh? Oh, yeah. How'd you know?" "Well, you and Hooni were the only ones around my age at the resident commitee, haha." "Completeley forgot about that...!" I mumble. While hes conversing with Hooni about something, I sneak a glance at him... and again, and again and again- he caught me! He just smiles... So perfect!

Time passes by so quickly when I'm with him, before I know it, he has to leave. "Uh, Soorim, it was nice talking with you!" "Haha, yeah! I'll see you next time!" After he leaves, I turn to my bestie. "Hooni, you have to help me get closer to him!" "Uhm, but why? And what about your keys?" "I'll take care of that later!"
