Sweet but a Psycho (Showki Fanfiction)

Chapter 22

Hoseok POV

"Kihyun-ah I...I l---"

"You like me. Don't you?" He said not letting to finish my sentence.

"Wait...h..how did you know?" I asked in shock. Did he know all these time and pretended to be don't know anything nor did he guessed it?

Third Person POV

"Guess I'm right this time" Kihyun said while smiling slightly. "It's just... you know we can tell it when someone act awkwardly suddenly around the person and not the comfortable self they used to be." Kihyun realized his best friend kinda act awkwardly at him since a few days ago. How the older male acts around him and try to get dinner with him unusually expensive places unlike in the past, and now how the older keep looking at him when Kihyun watch the night view outside the large glass window. The reflection of the older on the glass window got him feels that the strange feeling that had between them might be because of this. That he likes Kihyun in a romantic way.

"Hyung I...honestly I..." Kihyun spoke up to tell the truth but somehow he couldn't.

"It's okay Kihyun-ah. You can take time. I can wait. All I needed to say today was that I like you. Since a long time ago. I didn't think then it will turn out like this. But now I thought at least I should try confessing to you even though I know I have no chance with you. I know for you I am a brother like friend. I'm sorry but I can't think of you like that. And also I know you are gonna reject me but at least think of this for a little long before giving me an answer. I'll wait till then." Hoseok looked down at his lap and then he realized the tears on his face. He mentally cursed himself for being over sensitive and cry on a situation like this. Tears rolled down from his cheeks to his lap making his dark blue jeans even darker.

Kihyun took a deep heavy breath before starting to talk to the male before him.

"I actually liked you hyung." with that Hoseok raised his head to look at the younger.

"But it was long time ago when we were kids. I liked you so much and wanted to tell you that but somehow I didn't. And after growing up I realized it wasn't like what I thought then. I just liked you for being my older brother and best friend. Nothing more. I was dumb to think like that but now I grew up and know things about feelings more than before. So I need this to be cleared right here and now."

"I'm sorry" Kihyun said to the older and with that it's Kihyun's time for looked at his lap. He can't stare at his best friend's eyes. Not after seeing his tears on his face.

With that Hoseok started to sob unknowingly. He knows he needed to stop but he couldn't. It's hurt so much that he can't no don't want to stop. He also needed to stop this stupid crush on his best friend now if he can. Both of them earned few glances from customers out there but none of them cared look at them for more than 5 seconds. They have business after all. Tears started to form on Kihyun's eyes but he stopped it forcefully and moved his head up to look at the older. Only to be presented by a sobbing older while looking down. Guilty roamed through him suddenly. He knows certainly it's not his fault for not having mutual feelings but somehow the person he cared and also care for him most crying in front of him. The reason he was crying also was him. That was not easy thing to handle.

"H..hyung..I'm sorry I didn't wanted to make you wait for another useless days only to be in a situation like this again I wanted to things to be cleared right now. I know hyung is a good person and I am so lucky to have hyung's interest in me in both ways. But I don't want to lie to you in any way. I also didn't think things will turn out like this. But trust me hyung you will find someone who love you more than anything. But for now I'm so sorry I just..."
