Rival | Kim Seungmin

Day One

Yeeun pov

I groaned as I tossed and turned in my bed. How did I get here last night? What happened? My brows furrowed and my eyes remained shut as I groggily sat up, holding onto my aching head with one hand.

"Oh, you're awake," Wonhyuk spoke as he walked into the room with a glass of water.

He handed it to me as he took a seat on my bed, taking in how disheveled and scruffy I looked. "You should probably wash up and hurry downstairs. Seungmin brought you some hangover soup. He's waiting for you," he pat me on the shoulder after taking back the empty glass.

"Wait, how did I get home?" I asked as he began to stand.

He turned to me with a raised brow. "You don't remember?"

I shook my head as I wracked my brain, trying to think of what happened last night. "The last thing I remember is taking off my bra and throwing it at him," I mumbled as I buried my face in the palms of my hands.

He chuckled. "Well at least you remember almost everything. I brought you home. That's his jacket, so make sure to give it to him when you head downstairs," he said as he gestured to the outerwear that was hung on the back of my chair.

I nodded before he left the room, throwing myself back onto the bed, not wanting to get up. I stared at the ceiling for a bit before groaning as I rolled out of bed and trudged to the bathroom. I got into the shower and quickly washed my hair and dried it before throwing on an oversized tee and a pair of shorts.

I grabbed his jacket once I got out of the bathroom and headed downstairs. I folded it neatly over my arms as I stepped down the stairs cautiously. I caught a glimpse of him sitting on the couch dozing off. I cleared my throat as I approached him, awkwardly sitting down beside him.

"Here's your jacket," I said softly as I held it out to him. He thanked me before taking it and placing it on his lap.

"Have some of the soup before it gets cold," he said as he pushed it closer to me. I nodded and scooted onto the floor and tried to open the container. I felt his eyes on me as I struggled to open it.

He laughed before scooting beside me and opening the container for me. "Do you need me to feed you too?" He asked with a smirk and one of his brows slightly raised.

I blushed as I tried to avoid his eyes. "You've really changed Seungmin," I mumbled as I grabbed the utensils and began eating.

He tucked my hair behind my ear which was probably bright red. "You've changed too Yeeun."

I didn't respond and kept eating to distract myself. "Don't say a word and just listen to me, okay?" He said before continuing, "Before we met we were both bookworms striving to top the charts. After being paired together I came to notice that there's more to life than just studying. I want to know more about you, and I want to make you happy. I'd never wanted to tease anyone before I met you. Maybe I'm attracted to you because we're so alike but so different. I like you too, Song Yeeun. You're eating the soup I brought so does that mean it's our first day? Will you accept me and let me be your boyfriend?" He finished talking and I didn't know what to do.

This is what I wanted right? I put the utensils down and turned to face him. "Sure, I'll let you be my boyfriend," I smiled. His cheeks turned a bright shade of pink and I chuckled.

He grabbed his jacket and laid it on my lap. "This is yours now. A token of memory so you don't forget about what happened," he laughed.

"I'll wear it everyday so you don't forget either," I smiled as I reached over and ruffled his hair.

He laughed before pulling me into his arms and letting out a sigh. "I've been wanting to do this since yesterday," he whispered as he nuzzled his head into my shoulder.

I closed my eyes as I took in his comforting scent. "You should wash my clothes for me. I like the way your detergent smells," I said as I wrapped my arms around him.

"I'll do anything for you, Yeeun," he mumbled before the sound of someone clearing their throat could be heard.

He quickly pushed me away causing me to fall back. I propped myself on my elbows as I looked at him in disbelief while he pretended as if he wasn't doing anything.

Wonhyuk laughed before squeezing in between us. "So is my lovely couple finally offical?" He grinned.

I nodded my head as I sat up and he immediately turned to Seungmin. "I love you, but Yeeun is my sister so I mean it when I say I'll hunt you down if you ever hurt her."

Seungmin's eyes wavered as he got anxious from Wonhyuk's serious tone. I pulled Wonhyuk back as I spoke. "You're scaring him, chill out." I then looked at Seungmin before adding, "Don't take what he said to heart. I had a messy past relationship so he's a little overprotective when it comes to these things."

He chuckled nervously as he held a hand up. "I, Kim Seungmin, promise to always take care of Somg Yeeun so you'll never have to hunt me down," he nodded firmly and Wonhyuk gave him a pat on the shoulder.

"I sure hope you'll keep your word," he said with a sigh before getting up.

We watched him walk to the kitchen before Seungmin scooted closer to me. "I don't know what happened but I'll always protect you Yeeun," he smiled as he interlocked our hands giving me a tight squeeze.
