Heart Me | A DoWoo fanfic ✔

chapter 4

The next day came, to Doyoung's surprise Jeongwoo arrived in the class before him.

He saw the younger talking with his best friend, Haruto. So putting his bag in his seat, Doyoung approached them and said a ‘hi'. He was pretty close with Haruto too thanks to Jeongwoo. So before Jeongwoo could say anything, Haruto spoke, “You look so pretty without much makeup, Doyoung-ah!”
Doyoung tilted his head downwards in shyness and smiled.

Jeongwoo who didn't get the chance to notice how Doyoung came to school applying just powder and lip-gloss. He had some slightly brown spots on his cheeks and some pimples too, but the said boy became confident enough to show people his perfect imperfections.
Jeongwoo was in awe. He felt so damn happy that he embraced the elder boy’s small frame.

“I feel so happy that you gained some confidence. You don't know but you look really beautiful like this, Doyoungie!” He complimented, after letting go off that hug.

“It's all thanks to you.” Saying so Doyoung smiled cutely. Haruto eyed how Jeongwoo was cooing at Doyoung's cuteness.

And after the three had some small talks, the teacher arrived which made them get to studying.

After one boring lesson of history, they were told to go to the science lab to do some experiments. Most of the students were excited to do something fun after a whole boring 45 minutes.

The students got out of the classroom and were walking in the school corridor. Haruto was talking to his other friends while Doyoung and Jeongwoo were walking together, holding hands. They both liked this small skin ships, that made their heart flutter with a giddy feeling inside.
But as they were walking peacefully, some whispers were heard behind them. And Jeongwoo noticed how the whispers included his and Doyoung's names about the small rumour that spread around them. Doyoung became aware of the gossiping of some girls’ behind them and bit his lips.

Jeongwoo rolled his eyes in a visible manner but an idea popped inside his head. He walked close to Doyoung and grabbed the elder by his slim waist in a flirty and protective manner at the same time.

He could feel more students watching them keenly now.

“Do you feel uncomfortable?” He whispered into Doyoung's ears, sending shivers to his spine. The latter shook his head slightly. Jeongwoo noticed the small smile curved in Doyoung's beautiful lips. So without any second doubt, he smirked and touched Doyoung's earlobe with his lips.

Many gasps and squeals were heard from the students, specially from the group of girls. Jeongwoo turned to look at them, “Satisfied?” He asked in a sassy manner. The girls were dumb-founded and shut their mouths. Doyoung had a fantastic smile on his face seeing how Jeongwoo isn't a bit affected by the rumours.

The younger smiled at him and intertwined their hands again on their way to the science lab.

After some other classes were done, the boys finally headed to lunch. Doyoung was a new member added to the friend-group of four. He genuinely liked the people he got along with lately. Jaehyuk was a bit too open but he was a nice guy, Asahi was quiet but Doyoung knew he never minded his company, Haruto was an understanding friend of Doyoung who always made sure the elder didn't feel out of place ; and Jeongwoo, Doyoung couldn't be any happier than this that he met someone like Park Jeongwoo.

The said boy helped the latter in many ways from the very first. From making sure that Doyoung ate well to helping him regain a lot of confidence to come to school almost barefaced.

They all looked at Doyoung fondly with genuine smiles drawn on their faces. It's the first day Doyoung talked to them after the rumours.

“I'm really sorry guys for not talking it out and ignoring all of you.” Doyoung spoke sincerely, specially looking at Jeongwoo. “It's fine, we understand your situation.” Asahi replied making Doyoung to grin. The quiet Asahi was saying this, so it really was fine by them.

“But really there's nothing wrong in liking each other.” Jaehyuk said, chewing his lunch.

“We don't like each other.” Doyoung spoke casually, his eyes not holding any particular emotion. Jeongwoo's smile dropped a bit hearing Doyoung's straight confession.

“No I’m just stating a normal fact. Like look at me and Asahi.” Saying so Jaehyuk put his arm around the younger's shoulder and kissed his cheek playfully.

Doyoung blinked twice and looked at Jeongwoo,  trying to know if they're a thing.

Haruto sighed softly and looked at Doyoung. “He likes Asahi hyung but Asahi hyung doesn't say yes or no like literally anything related to it.” He spoke as Doyoung let out an ‘oh' and nodded.

“Yeah Asahi if you don’t like me then at least reject me! Don’t keep me hanging.” Jaehyuk whined and pouted, now hugging the said boy's small frame.

Asahi sighed. “Have you ever directly asked me out?” Jaehyuk was dumb-founded at that and let go off the younger. Doyoung, Haruto and Jeongwoo straightened their backs at that and now paid keen attention the duo sitting in front of them.

“Like have you ever directly proposed me? I just know that you like me, what am I supposed to do after knowing that?”

Jaehyuk only blinked. A sigh escaped from Asahi's delicate lips. As he was about to focus on his food again, Jaehyuk blurted out.

“Sahi-ya, will you be my boyfriend?”
Silence prevailed in the air. Doyoung, Jeongwoo and Haruto all felt the tension between the two boys sitting in front of them. A few seconds later, Asahi's face showed a beautiful smile playing on his lips.

“Gladly.” He shortly answered.
Before anyone could say anything, a teardrop rolled down to Jaehyuk’s cheeks as he side-hugged the younger boy. “I'm so happy, Sahi-ya. Thank you.”

Haruto and Doyoung screamed hard and almost hugged each other while cheering.

Jeongwoo was clapping and cheering on his own with a fantastic smile on his face. As he wanted to celebrate the moment with Doyoung, he witnessed something hurtful. As immature as it sounded but he felt jealous seeing Doyoung giving all his attention to Jeongwoo's best friend and them sharing smiles and words.
But shaking that feeling away, Jeongwoo cheered again for his two close friends who just got together.

“Who even gives you a detention if you get the homework answers wrong ?? That doesn't make any sense!” Jeongwoo whined.

Doyoung sighed and sat back down in his seat. “I don't know what Mrs. Park even thought. But nkw I have to sit another 1 hour here." Jeongwoo pouted as Haruto yawned.

“Yah aren't you gonna be late? Jihoon hyung said he needs that copy in an hour.” Haruto spoke to Jeongwoo who sighed again. “I'm so sorry Doyoungie, I can't accompany you today." Doyoung just laughed and patted the taller boy's broad shoulder.

“It's okay just go." He said.

“But what if someone comes and makes fun of you?” Jeongwoo asked with worry in his eyes. “I'm not a child, Jeongwoo-ya. I’ll be fine.” Doyoung replied. “Still !” The latter whined.
“You know what? I'll stay with Doyoung.” Haruto spoke.

“Really? You will?” Doyoung questioned and received a nod from the latter. “I have nothing to do at home anyways. I'll just sit here and spend some time with you.” Haruto said and smiled softly in which Doyoung smiled back.

Jeongwoo's face dropped seeing this small interaction between them.
He fist-bumped Haruto and lightly hugged Doyoung before taking his leave from there to reach a specific notebook to his brother. But on his way home, Jeongwoo's mind was clouded with the small interactions he witnessed between Doyoung and Haruto the whole day.
