I will admit this chapter is not the best, only because the original idea I had for this somehow got lost, and I had to come up with a different path for it. Enjoy!
YOUR POV
"The guy you want to ask to prom....." He slowly starts to speak out, your eyes dragging to him at the same rate.
"Don't even start." You say, trying to warn him. He would not like the answer he would get from you.
"Is it me?" He did it. He actually did it. A pinch of hope sparked in your chest at the fact that he cared enough to ask, and for the fact he thought it was him, but he was the one who didn't want the two of you in be in each other's lives if it was beyond platonic. So of course, you had to lie.
"Pft, no. Very cocky of you to assume that." You say then turn your attention back to the road ahead of the two of you. He sighs, a small groan of frustration leaving his lips simultaneously.
"I know you (Y/N), you wouldn't tell me the truth if I was the last person on earth." You scoff then cross your arms in front of your chest. You glance at him again, his eyes already looking in your direction as he tried to read your expression. You avert your eyes once more, eye contact with him was never your strong suit.
"It's. Not. You." You lie again. He comes to a stop light.
"Okay, fine." Silence fills between the two of you for a brief moment before he speaks up again.
"So what, now you have a crush?"
"Drop it Jisung." You say to let him know you were serious. You never really called him Jisung unless you were mad or annoyed at him.
"I'm just curious. I want to know if you're dating someone and if it's okay for me to date someone too." What? This was what all of it was about? Was he asking you permission to go ahead and date other people?
You wanted to say 'no, it's not okay for you to go and date other people. I want you to be with me, and only me', but then you'd sound crazy, so you went with the lather.
"We've been past that .... it's been almost two years..." You kind of whisper at the end, drifting off.
"Okay, good.... Because there's this girl, and I heard that she wants to ask me to prom." Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit! Not what we were going for here Y/N ! You had to keep your composure, maybe he was just bluffing to see your reaction.
"So?" You carefully let out.
"So, I want to know if it's okay that I go with her." No, it is not okay Han! You've got to be joking. You turn you eyes to face him at least, your heart clenches and drops within a moment.
It had been almost two years, but still.... you weren't ready to move on from him, so how was he ready? You couldn't be selfish though, you wanted hm to be happy and even if it meant that that it wasn't with you, you'd be fine....... Would you really? A sigh escapes your mouth and then you avert your eyes back onto the road.
"It's not up to me, if you want to, then do it."
"I'm just making sure that I won't hurt your feelings if I say yes."
"Why would I be hurt?"
"I don't know? Maybe you still have feelings for me and being as stubborn as you are, you won't tell me." You froze for a moment, he does know you better than anyone. But, he was probably trying to call your bluff, and you didn't want to give it away.
"You've got to be joking." At that, the traffic light turned green and he started driving once again. You don't know why it was always like this between you two. Whenever you would get on the topic of someone liking either one of you, it seemed to be a sensitive topic.
You felt it was clear that you both liked each other, but neither was willing to admit it. You'd ran countless ideas in your mind of the amount of girls he was getting texts from and wondered if he replied to any of them. It wasn't your place but could you help it, it was human nature. You just had to find out.
"Are you ready to date again?" You blurt out suddenly. You were dying to know what was going on in his life and if he had truly moved on. He takes a left turn and you knew it wouldn't be long before you were home.
"I'm not sure, are you?" You just shrug.
"I'm not sure either." You admit. You hear him sigh lightly in relief. "Would you tell me if you were?" He doesn't mutter a sound, but nods instead. He comes to a stop, right in front of your house, but you don't rush to go in. He parks the car and leans back in his chair, moving his hands through his hair.
"I would always tell you if I was going to date someone else."
"Why?"
"Because, I just think it's the right thing to do."
"Right thing to do, right...." You mumble and the sit back in the passenger seat.
"I don't get it, why do we have to make things so awkward between us huh? It's been a year, I thought we agreed this was the best thing to do for us?" You shake your head at his comment.
"I agreed to be friends for the sake of the guys, not because it was the best thing for us. I wasn't ready to let you go, but you were." You look at him, his face was soft but there was a hidden anger in his voice.
"I was?"
"It seemed like it. You're the one who dumped me." Your tone softens at the statement. You'd cry soon if you didn't get out of the car.
"Are you sure you're over it?" He asks.
"What? Why would you ask that." Your voice breaks mid sentence.
"You keep missing the part where I know you better than anyone. The way you're acting, it just seems like you didn't get over it."
"I got over it, it's not like I had much of a choice."
"You had a choice." He say through gritted teeth.
"A choice to do what? Continue chasing after you when you lost feelings for me? Yeah, no thanks." You start gathering your stuff from the car, you couldn't be in there a second longer. "Here's a smart idea, maybe things will stop being awkward when you stop bringing this up whenever we're alone, like it's the only thing we can talk about."
"Then maybe don't lie to me, and tell me that you still love me." You freeze at his statement. No way, no way, no way. You had to get out of there. If you even made the slightest contact with him he would know your answer. You finish grabbing your stuff from the car, and place your hand on the door handle.
"Kiss it Jisung." You say before unlocking the door and stepping out onto the sidewalk, walking towards your house. He stayed there for a brief moment, giving you time to get your keeps out and unlock the door, until you walked into your house. Then you heard his engine start and he drove off.
