Sugar & Cream [A Jeong Jaehyun FF]

Chapter 4- My perfect stranger

Everything is fucked up at this moment!
I find out that the guy on whom I have been crushing for over two months... is friends with the guy with whom I had a one-night stand in Paris. I saw Taeyong for the first time at the library and he was someone on whom you can instantly have a crush on. He had these dark brown eyes which were more beautiful when he stood under the sun... just like when he was standing by that window in the library, holding a book and letting rays of sun fall on him. I knew nothing about him at that moment until I found out that we were taking the same biology classes. I've never spoken to him much just a few 'hi and hellos' and smiling at each whenever we run into each other but every time he does something as small as it can be... it makes my heart flutter. 

As for Jaehyun,
I first saw him at the party held by the company for which I had gone to Paris to work a temporary job as a staff. I needed this temporary job as I had to support my brother and myself. It was a three days program and I never saw him before but at the party. I don't even know why he was at the party. Maybe he was also a staff like me? Or he had some other job which I probably wouldn't know because I was only given the job of maintaining the outfits of the models who were there for the photoshoot and I have never been to the set. 

After the photoshoot was over, the company held a party to thank us and we were all invited. I wasn't the type to go to parties nor do I drink alcohol but I had to take a glass of champagne as they wanted to make a toast but I never took a sip of it until... he walked to me. He was wearing a simple yet so attractive black shirt and jeans. He had simple black eyes but something about them was so beautiful... it was just like how the night sky was beautiful even without the stars or moon. He was the one who started the conversation and I saw that every time I smiled... he smiled and it made me smile more. I didn't even know his name but he was like the only person I knew in that room filled with people. I hadn't seen the night view of Paris previously but now I wanted to... I wanted to see it with him. He was like a perfect stranger to me in that unknown city. 

Now that I look back at it, would everything have been a little different if I hadn't asked him to watch the night view with me and we wouldn't have ended up having a one-night stand? But that wasn't the question that bothered me... the question that was in my mind was... why hasn't he asked me anything about that night? Am I the only one who's overthinking it? Because I have a crush on someone else whom I am not even dating? Does he think that what happened was a mistake? Because I won't say that it's a mistake... because something that makes my heart flutter and makes me smile... is not a mistake... at least not for me. 

"Y/n! I have been looking for you everywhere!" It was Ji-eon who wrapped her arms around my neck

"You scared me," I said while she took a seat next to me. Ji-eon noticed Jaehyun and Taeyong sitting in front of me but she wasn't bothered about Taeyong anymore, she was more focused on Jaehyun sitting in front of me which made her give me a teasing look. I haven't told her anything about me meeting Jaehyun in Paris or our one-night-stand yet and had I done so... she'd already have freaked out and fainted by now. 

"You and Y/n seem like best friends" Taeyong questioned 

"Yes, we are! Just like you and him... what was his name again?" Ji-eon whispered the last part into my ears

"Jaehyun" I whispered back

"So you remembered?" She gave me a teasing look making me roll my eyes. I could never forget him... not after our one-night stand. I stood up from my seat and grabbed my bag which I had kept by the side of the table. 

"We're getting late," I said and then turned toward Jaehyun before saying,

"Let's meet on the rooftop during lunch, I'll explain the rest of the notes to you then" 

Jaehyun's POV:

I watched her stand up from her seat and slowly disappear among the students with her friends. We still had 20 minutes before the class yet she left early. 
It was as if she didn't want to stay any longer... and why is it always me who watches her leave and can't do anything about it? I want her to stay and explain me the rest of the notes to me now... but I can't bring myself to do or say anything. 

"I didn't say this previously.... but I think, I have a crush on her" Taeyong whispered into my ears and I wished it isn't whom I think it is

"Who?" I asked gulping down the lump that had formed in my throat

"Ji-eon" He replied smiling making me sigh in relief. Yes, I hate to say this but I am happy that he doesn't like Y/n but at the same time... I feel disappointed because I know... Y/n likes Taeyong. 

End of POV

[Time skip: Lunch]

I opened the door which lead to the rooftop and he was already there, by the railing looking at the view outside. He turned around as if he knew that it was me. He smiled at me and turned back around to look at the view. I took small steps toward him and stood next to him and leaned along the railing. None of us said anything but the silence was comforting. 

"Are we not going to talk about it?" He questioned and I knew what he was talking about. Now, I must say that the silence was better. I took a deep breath but before I could say anything, he asked,

"Do you think... that what happened was a mistake? Are you guilty?" 

"No, it wasn't a mistake... I'm not guilty" I wanted to say but I couldn't. I stayed silent and I don't want him to misunderstand my silence but I guess I was asking for too many things at once. When I didn't answer anything, he just smiled as if he was expecting this but I wanted to say no... but I couldn't... because it felt as if somewhere deep inside me... I felt like it was a mistake. 

"Did you look for me? After I left?" I asked and the answer I expected was a "no" but instead, he said with a smile,

"Yes, I did... I looked for you... a lot"
