The Boy Next Door

The end.

After that, we started dating. It doesn't feel real or like we are actually dating since I've basically been "with" him for 13 years. 

But now, there's a lot more benefits. 

"Can we go tell my parents? I want them to know they finally have you as a son in law." I say while feeling embarrassed. 

"Hm? Of course." he says with a small laugh behind his words. That's suspicious...

We go over to my parents house, and Heeseung helps me carry all the boxes, aka, he's carrying them all. I swear I didn't force him, he just kept persisting. 

"Hi sweetie- oh my!" my mom says, seeing all the boxes Heeseung is holding. She helps him put them down on the counter where my dad is sitting. 

"Kim Chaewon! You went shopping? I didn't know you had so much on the- wait." my dad says but he sees Heeseung next to me and stops. Oh boy. They are going to yell aren't they?

"I did it!" Heeseung yells while smiling at them. They grin widely and jump up and down. 

"Did what?" I ask Heeseung being extremely confused. 

"Oh honey, you are so clueless. We've been planning this proposal for weeks now. Heeseung can to us for approval, and we were ecstatic of course. We knew this would happen with you two, it was only a matter of time!" they say while laughing at me. 

"What?? When did all of this happen??" I say while laughing with them. 

"Never mind that. Lee Heeseung!! How much did you spend on our clumsy daughter??" they scream. 

"It didn't make a dent on my bank account, I promise. I'll do anything for the girl I love." he says making me blush like a tomato.

"I'm so excited!! I've always wanted to shop for a boy, and Chaewon's father isn't so young anymore." her mom says while laughing. 

"It's amazing, how life turns out, huh? You two were meant to be ever since you guys were little." my dad says and behind his plain face, I know he's secretly excited to play golf, and build things with Heeseung.

We go to school the next day, holding hands and almost everyone isn't phased. Did we really act like a couple before. 

"Should we use nicknames? Honey? Sweetie? Lovebug?" Heeseung suggests making me laugh. 

"Let's stick to our names, shall we? Jay!!" I scream while running towards him, unlocking my hand with Heeseung's.

"Hey Chaewon! I totally forgot to tell you, but we should definitely go to the club around the corner of Gangnam. I heard they play the music we-" before he can continue he sees Heeseung next to me, smiling fondly at me. 

"Huh. Anyway." before Jay can continue, Jake approaches us while laughing. He wraps his arm around Jay and shakes his head. 

"Your clueless ass- Jay they are dating now." Jake says referring to me and Heeseung. I lock eyes with Jake and he smiles ever so brightly at me. 

"Thank you." I whisper to Jake. Namjin and Boram eventually arrive and we tell them the news and of course, they knew as well. 

"So everyone knew except me??" I say while pulling out my books.

"Yup." everyone says in unison. I pout and Heeseung holds my hand under the table. 

"I hate you guys." I say while leaning back in my chair.

7 years later: (Heeseung's POV:)

"Heeseung-sshi?" I hear my secretary say from the corner of the room. I nod in response, not taking my eyes off the computer.
