she never expected her little silly crush on the bus boy to grow into something so much more, in a world where soulmates could hear what music their other half listens to, he wanted her to play the music he heard in his head.

‧₊˚ ☁️₊˚ෆ ͙ chapter nine: an apology and a thank you ˖ ࣪ ‹ ⁺˖ 𓂃♫♫♫𓈒 ⸝⸝ "we can be friends from now on." ⋆ ⋆
beomgyu awakened; it was yesterday he was with chaesoo, but he checked his phone to see several notifications, all of which were messages from her asking about their next date, he sighed and ran through his hair with his hand. after having breakfast, he decided to inform chaesoo that they would go to a mall, as he needed to do some shopping, and he could refer to it as a date either, two birds with a stone.
as he went downstairs, he couldn't help wonder- how would things be if eunji were truly his soulmate? he sighed, biting his bottom lip. he knew he shouldn't be thinking that. when he reached the front door, min jeong suddenly appeared behind him and asked him where he was going.
"I'm going on a date with chae" he answered, he didn't raise her head as he was busy fixing his jacket. on the other hand—min jeong was grinning widely, glad to see that her brother was finally opening up to chaesoo, even though it was still unbelievable to her that they're soulmates.
once he arrived at the porch of her house, he sent her a quick message, letting her know he arrived. and after a brief moment, the front door opened and he forced a smile, she was wearing a cute and warm outfit, her long hair open as she hugged beomgyu and he briefly hugged back before he pulled away "hi chaesoo" he muttered and she grinned "hi baby" he didn't miss the way a hue of pink tinted her cheeks as he called him the pet name but he only shook his head and asked: "do you want me to call an uber or walk to the mall?" he asked and she shook her head "it's quite near and i like walking"
"are you sure? it's cold" he said but she only clung to his arm and pulled him along. he sighed reluctantly and followed, and then asked: "what do you need to buy?" he asked, looking straight ahead, she hummed "some cosmetics? and maybe jewelry" she answered and he hummed, "we'll buy your things first"

after they were done shopping, they had lunch at a restaurant in the mall, and they were heading outside when chaesoo pointed at a boy dancing on the other side of the street, she goggled at him in awe. he was indeed a great dancer. beomgyu raised his eyebrows as he glanced at the girl.
"i can dance too, " beomgyu confidently spoke. and she glanced at him, a little smirk appeared on her lips as she hummed "oh really? show me" chaesoo responded with a challenging voice, beomgyu smirked and grabbed her wrist and went to the boy he took off his jacket and ran through his hair with his hands.
he told the boy that he would dance, and the boy nodded and played 'hot' by seventeen. beomgyu danced like a professional while everyone cheered for him. his moves were smooth and his facial expressions were on point, chaesoo held her breath as she stared at him, cheering for him along with everyone else.
after he was finished dancing, chaesoo ran to him and hugged him "i didn't know you were so good" she handed him his jacket since it was cold and he was sweaty from dancing, he chuckled and took the jacket, putting it on. some people told chaesoo that she was lucky to have a boyfriend like him, handsome and talented, and chaesoo just blushed at their statements and beomgyu was quite unbothered as he was so used to compliments.

taehyun woke up from his slumber, he went downstairs to have breakfast but was too lazy to make something for himself, so he just drank a glass of milk, when he heard the doorbell ring, the realization slapped him, he had to attend yeonjun's basketball play, he opened the door to see two taller figures smiling at him, and they greeted him. they went inside to wait for taehyun until he'd change into something.
after finally arriving at the stadium, he and soobin took a seat while yeonjun went to warm up and change his clothes. after the game started, the sound of cheering annoyed taehyun a bit, as he looked around, he caught a glimpse of someone familiar, his lips parted and he discreetly glanced at soobin who was invested in the match.
that was definitely a good opportunity to leave unnoticed and thank her, but what made him frown was the girl fretting and didn't seem to enjoy being there. he made his way toward her seat slowly, not letting soobin notice or he would be doomed. he awkwardly tried to tap on her shoulder but couldn't get himself to do it; eventually, after a lots of trying, he managed to tap the girl on her shoulder, and the girl seemed a bit surprised. they did mumble a few words but couldn't understand each other because of the crowd and cheering. so he signaled her to follow him, and she did.
"didn't expect to see you here." aecha finally spoke as they reached the garden outside the stadium. he shook his head "me neither, i am here because yeonjun is my friend, how about you? you seemed quite uninterested in the game." he asked, she hummed and waved her hand dismissively "yeah yeah, my friend's boyfriend plays and she dragged me along" she huffed
"yeah so... i wanted to thank you for bringing me home last time i was wasted" he said, flashing her a small smile, her heart raced at the sight and she shook her head, a little smile appearing on her lips "oh, about that, don't mention it... that's something anyone would do" aecha responded cheerfully, as she gave him an eye smile. and then he learned how ethereal she looked, so he stared at her for a few seconds, enough to make the girl blush.
"and for the night, i hope i didn't offend you, it's just... i still need to move on from someone." he said, she stared at him for a seconds before she smiled "it's okay, i wasn't offended at all, plus neither of us knew about our moms' plotting, it surprised me as well" she chuckled, her eyes looking deep into his before she looked away.
"plus moving on isn't easy, take your time." she added, suddenly remembering how desperately he was saying someone's name that night he was drunk. "i'm glad everything's okay between us, no hard feelings right?" he asked, he didn't know why but he wanted to make sure, she chuckled in response and said "of course not, we can be friends, if you want?" she reached out her hand and he looked at it for a second before smiling and shaking her hand "okay, friends."
