Part 16 || date

Hana's POV

Hana: "Heeseung? Let's go?" I called him over and he walked over to me hesitantly. There's no lying when I say that we both don't know what just happened. As we were lining up he called me

Heeseung: "Hana?" I turned to him and hummed in response "I know we both know what just happened but, let's not become awkward just because of that ok?" I nodded

Hana: "for sure, it can be a funny story we can remember"

Heeseung: "yeah yeah totally" I chuckled and he did too.

We went on throughout the day as if nothing happened. We bought more stuff for ourselves and ate some fast food in the food court while talking and laughing about nonsense things. We connected again.

But I can't lie, I don't feel the same way as before. I think- my feelings towards him feel like when we were kids again...

<time skip next day in school>

During break I was waiting for Heeseung by my lockers since his teacher was dismissing them a bit later than mine. I decided that I should fix my stuff inside my locker during this time. While fixing Sunghoon approached me.

Sunghoon: "hey Han, can I ask you something?" I nodded and closed my locker

Hana: "sure, what's up?" He looked everywhere but me. Is he ok? He fidgeted with his sleeves and tried to speak

Sunghoon: "c-can I be y-your date to prom?" I widened my eyes

Hana: "as in together?" He nodded.

I thought about it. Heeseung and I have been partners in everything before. Interactions with other schools, soirée's, youth groups. We always went as a pair. Maybe I should ask him about it, it'd be good to tell him first. He did say he missed our old times since we started hanging out with other people.

Hana: "can I think about it? I'll let you know soon"

Sunghoon: "no problem, I'll see you around ok?" He kissed my forehead smirking and then left. That sweet talker! I held my forehead and smiled to myself. My cheeks hurt from smiling. Ugh! Why does he have that affect on me. After a few seconds foot steps approached me

Heeseung: "why are you smiling while holding onto your head? Do you feel dizzy? No that can't be because you wouldn't be smiling" he removed my hand and touched my forehead to see if I had a fever.

Heeseung's POV

Hana: "I'm ok really" she let out a laugh and ever since yesterday every time I think of her it's different. I'm excited to see her. "By the way, why do you look so excited?" Right!

Heeseung: "I forgot to tell you, Bianca asked if she could be my date to prom" her happy face fell. She didn't say anything for a few seconds.

Hana: "w-what did you say?"

Hana's POV

Heeseung: "I said yes" my face turned pale and I looked away from him. "Is there something wrong?" He asked. Yes! He didn't ask me. We did everything together. It would've been fine if he asked me about it. But no! That was the least he could do, I would've been fine with it. I wasn't hurt because we weren't going together. I was hurt because he didn't bother asking me.

Heeseung's POV

Hana: "no no its fine"

Heeseung: "really? But how about you? I don't want you to be alone" I didn't wanna leave her out of course.

Hana: "don't worry about me, I'm going with Sunghoon" what?! I looked at her with warning eyes. Him? When did that happen? Why is he getting so close to her. Shit right he likes her.

Heeseung: "why would you go with him" I asked annoyed. Does Hana like him back? Is he better than me? No he's not. I would've been a better date for Hana.

Hana: "why? Is there something wrong?" I wanted to say yes there was something wrong. I don't like you going with him. Picking her up from her house, dancing with her the whole night. I hated the idea. I wanted to be Hana's date.

Heeseung: "n-no... I guess not" she looked at me confused but then brushed it off

Hana: "prom is next week, I have got to start dieting" she laughed jokingly and closed her locker. I laughed with her but honestly she didn't need to diet. She was perfect.
