TRUTH OR DARE? - l.dh

ix. day 11

Three days left. Youre not so sure how to feel about it. Relieved? Disappointed? Youve never felt so many feelings at once, and youre scared of it, which adds yet another emotion in the pile of mixed ones. And for that, you want to beat Donghyuck up as he pulls you closer just as you say something about wanting to get up for a glass of water.

Nooo, dont leave!

Donghyuck, I dont think I can even physically leave. At least not with his arms and legs trapping you against him. Mentally, though, you dont really want to. His presence is far too warm and comforting for you to want to leave, but your thirst for water is causing you to want to leave.

Just for a second please, do you really want your girlfriend to die of thirst?!

There you go again, calling yourself his girlfriend even if nobody is home. Donghyucks parents and Sungmin have gone out shopping for her birthday coming up soon, and apparently she didnt want you to come. Something about surprising you with her pretty outfits. Or it could be something about getting with Donghyuck, and it could be confirmed as she threw a wink at you and finger guns as she closed the door behind her.

Just a few more minutes please,

You give in eventually. Its not like you could actually get him to let go. And its not like you really wanted to let go either. Youve gone longer without water, right? Exam week is a bitch when you forget to bring a water bottle with you to the library.

Donghyucks embrace is warm, youre shocked at how warm it can be. His heartbeat is your favorite song, and the sight of him smiling lightly into his sleep is much better than your favorite movie. And the sensation of his fingers running lightly against your back feels almost heavenly, and youre sure to combust of adoration when he pulls you closer and complains about it being cold despite the AC being off.

It feels all too real.

Just the thought of what you two are doing is fake, that its going to come to an end in just 2 days, is almost haunting to you. Whats going to happen to the both of you after this?

The question is itching in your throat, right on the tip of your tongue, but you cant get yourself to say it. You were simply scared of whats to come.

You should probably ask.

Youre about to ask. Your mouth is open, your heart ready for the response, and you sit up. But the moment you sit up, Donghyuck doesnt even ask, and flops right on top of you.

A few more minutes, I swear.

And a few minutes later, your confidence has faded away, and all you can do is nervously play with Donghyucks hoodie strings.
