KS9 - Love, Lyrics

Chapter 29

Lyrics's POV

Am I drunk? I forgot how I reached the third floor. Who am I? I feel like I am floating and I can't feel anything. My hands are still cold. I think I am going to have a fever. I rolled in my bed. Aaaaahhhhhh!

"I hope it made you happy. I love you so much ♥♥♥" Hunter sent me a message.

I was busy catching my breath when my phone rang. I panicked real bad. What do I do? My boyfriend is calling me. BOYFRIEND! aaaaaahhhh!

Trembling, I picked up my phone. "Y-yes?"

"I can't see your face. Look at me." Hunter said.

Stupid me. So this is a video call? Focus, Lyrics.

"Hi!" What an awkward way to greet your new boyfriend. "Hehe. Hello!"

"I am at the headquarters. Are you going to sleep now?"

"Y-yeah! Night."

"What a cold response from my boyfriend! You don't like me calling? Do you want to have a meal with me tomorrow?" Hunter is so talkative tonight.

"Well, we were just together minutes ago. Why are you so clingy?"
Is this how boyfriends should be?

"Watch out for a clingier Hunter. Sleep early. I love you, eighteen-year-old boy. I will meet you when you wake up."

I am here lying on my stomach with my face buried in the pillow, trying not to squeal but failing big time.

How can he shake my whole system like this? It is unfair. I should make it quits.

"Iloveyounightbye." I pressed the end button right away.

Woah. That felt so good.

I always say that I will never have a boyfriend. I swallowed my words. This your fault, Hunter! This is truly your fault.

I woke up around noon. I had the best sleep ever. Probably, my mom just let me sleep more because it is my birthday.

Happy Birthday, self. I greeted myself in front of the mirror. You look so happy indeed. There is no room for regrets. You can do this!

It is too obvious. Frown! Act normally. I reminded myself

I went out of my room.

"We saw the clip. Happy Birthday, my baby." It was mom. He kissed me and handed me a small box.

Dad greeted me too. But the way he looked at me is quite different. "Sit down, Lyrics."

He is sitting on the couch with my grandfather Aki.

Hehehehehe...I am nervously smiling.

Everyone is staring at me as if they are waiting for me to say something.

"Well, I am eighteen already. It is normal." I initiated the conversation. I know, they are aware of it already. No secrets will be hidden from them.

"What is normal?" My dad asked.

Why am I shy to talk about it now?

Giggling, I answered. "Hunter is my boyfriend. Hahahaha." I laughed because saying that Hunter is my boyfriend now is a bit ticklish.

Riley appeared in front of me.

He was staring at me when...

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!

...we screamed together.

"Our baby has a boyfriend now? Wow!" Riley held both of my hands and shook them.
