do you remember our first kiss?

you had asked me to come to school earlier. it meant i couldn't take the bus to school, and i had to walk 30 minutes.

i did, even though i was sure you were about to end our friendship.

but those weren't the words coming from your mouth when i arrived.

'min, look. please don't hate me, but i can't keep stuff like this to myself. i really like you. like, romantically. i will understand if you don't like me back, of course. but .. yeah.'

i had gaped at you. there was no way you could like me. you, the one and only bang chan. perfect in every way. me, lee minho, flawed and broken.

'i like you too.'

your face lit up. you kissed me right there, unable to contain yourself. not that i hadn't wanted it. not that i hadn't craved your touch.

you tasted like strawberries.

but when we pulled back? what happened, chan?

you panicked, and ran for it.

you avoided me all day, sitting through our classes at a different table. i was stuck sitting next to seungmin, who didn't seem to like me one bit. i had never even talked to the guy.

you didn't even sit with me during lunch, joining changbin and jisung instead.

my heart ached when jisung made you laugh.

how could you have betrayed me like this?

the next day you sat with me again, and pretended nothing happened. that afternoon you asked me to be your boyfriend, and i said yes.

all was forgotten. but i remember now.
