i glare at the boy in front of me.
the iced americano in my hand is going to explode if i squeeze it any tighter.
ryujin had always said i looked like i could kill when i was mad.
i finally believe her when hyunjin begins avoiding my gaze, looking everywhere but at me, a worried expression glazing his face.
maybe he's scared i'll murder him.
good.
because i will.
everything i had ever found attractive about the guy has disapparated. i'm too pissed at him to find him pretty.
he gives me an awkward half-smile while he fidgets with his fingers, revealing dimples.
ok, maybe not everything...
but i still hate him.
"so, uh..."
"are you fucking nuts?!" i explode.
he flinches then turns to the now-staring cafe customers, nodding apologies.
"c'mon, let's not freak out in a public cafe, deiji."
he doesn't even deserve to call me by my name.
"why? you afraid people'll think you and your girlfriend are fighting?" i say coldly, then something hits me and i realize something.
he had asked me to meet him at a cafe...just the two of us...drinking and talking...in this public place...
"is that why you brought me here?!" i shriek.
he face-palms.
"ok, why don't we talk outside?"
"explain your behaviour before i swing at you, you creep." i ball up my fists to show him i meant it.
i do mean it.
i'm just about ready to punch hwang hyunjin a good one. and i don't care if i permanently eliminate that stupid mole under his eye in doing so.
"alright, look." he treads slowly and carefully, eyeing my fists, or more specifically, the metals on my fingers.
i'm wearing rings - oh, you better explain the hell up, hwang hyunjin.
"so, i don't know how else to say this but, uh...i'm gonna need you to date me."
i raise my fist and he jumps quick.
"no, no, no, wait!" he is wide-eyed. "fake date, okay? i just need it for publicity!"
and there it is. the reveal.
"you wanna use me." i scoffed. "for publicity?"
"i'm not really using you though, i'm just..." he bites his lip nervously. "using the advantage of the public attention i would get with you..."
