The Hoodie Boy || Yang Jungwon

#20

~ In Y/n's room ~

Y/n couldn't help but admire Jungwon's appearance as he stepped out of the shower. His wet hair was slightly sticking to his forehead, and his pajamas were loose-fitting, making him look even more adorable.

"Feeling better after the shower?" Y/n asked with a smile.

Jungwon nodded and let out a small yawn. "Yeah, it helped me relax a bit."

Y/n chuckled softly and gestured to her bed. "You can go ahead and get some rest, I'll stay up for a bit and do some homework."

Jungwon hesitated for a moment before asking, "Can I sleep with you again? I feel safer when you're around."

Y/n's heart swelled with affection for Jungwon. She nodded and patted the spot next to her on the bed. "Of course, come on."

Jungwon climbed onto the bed and snuggled up next to Y/n, resting his head on her chest. Y/n wrapped her arms around him, and they both closed their eyes, enjoying the comfort of each other's presence.

As Y/n drifted off to sleep, she couldn't help but feel grateful for having Jungwon in her life. She knew she wanted to do everything in her power to make sure he felt loved and supported, no matter what challenges they may face in the future.

~ The next day ~

Jungwon and Y/n groggily opened their eyes as Jaehyun crawled between them, announcing that it was time to go to school. Y/n rubbed the sleep from her eyes and glanced over at Jungwon, who was still half asleep.

"Come on, you two, get up!" Jaehyun giggled, bouncing on the bed.

Y/n chuckled and sat up, gently nudging Jungwon. "Wake up, sleepyhead. We've got to get ready for school."

Jungwon groaned but eventually sat up, rubbing his eyes. Y/n got up from the bed and helped Jaehyun out of the room so they could get ready for school.

As Y/n changed into her school uniform, she glanced over at Jungwon, who was still half asleep. She couldn't help but feel a pang of worry for him - he seemed exhausted and worn out from everything he was dealing with.

"Jungwon, are you okay?" Y/n asked softly, sitting down next to him on the bed.

Jungwon rubbed his eyes again and looked up at her with a small smile. "Yeah, I'm okay. I'm just tired, I guess."

Y/n nodded sympathetically. "I understand. But I'm here for you, okay? If you ever need to talk or if anything's bothering you, just let me know."

Jungwon's smile grew wider, and he leaned his head on Y/n's shoulder. "Thanks, Y/n. You're the best."

Y/n smiled and wrapped her arm around him, holding him close. She knew that Jungwon had a lot on his plate, but she was determined to be there for him every step of the way.

As the two walked side by side, Y/n couldn't help but notice the way Jungwon seemed to shrink into himself, his hood pulled up over his head and a mask covering the lower half of his face. She knew that he was self-conscious about his appearance, but she also knew that he was incredibly handsome and had nothing to be ashamed of.

"Jungwon," Y/n said, nudging him with her elbow. "You don't have to wear the hood and mask if you don't want to. You look great just the way you are."

Jungwon shook his head, his eyes still hidden behind the dark lenses of his sunglasses. "I'm not ready yet," he said quietly. "I don't want everyone staring at me."

Y/n nodded in understanding. She knew what it was like to feel self-conscious, especially in a place like high school where appearances seemed to be everything. But she also knew that Jungwon was more than his appearance and that he had a kind and caring heart that made him all the more attractive.

"Okay," she said softly. "I won't push you. Just know that I'm here for you, no matter what."

Jungwon smiled gratefully, and Y/n felt her heart flutter in her chest. She had been crushing on him for months now, and she couldn't help but hope that someday he would see her as more than just a friend.

As they arrived at school, Y/n watched as Jungwon pulled his hood even tighter around his face, as if trying to disappear into it. She couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness, knowing that he was hiding his true self from the world.

But she also knew that with time and patience, Jungwon would find the confidence to be himself and that when he did, he would shine brighter than anyone else in the school. And she would be there to cheer him on every step of the way.

Y/n and Jungwon walked through the crowded hallway, chatting and laughing as they made their way to their lockers. Suddenly, Y/n felt a tap on her shoulder and turned around to see Kyujin and Eunchae standing behind them, smirks on their faces.

"Boo!" they yelled, jumping out and trying to scare the two friends.

Jungwon let out a startled scream, his body tensing up and his grip on Y/n tightening as he jumped and hugged her tightly. Y/n could feel his heart racing, his breath hot against her ear as he tried to catch his breath.

"It's okay, it's just Kyujin and Eunchae," Y/n said, rubbing Jungwon's back gently. "They were just trying to scare us."

Jungwon slowly relaxed his hold on Y/n, his face turning red with embarrassment. "Sorry," he mumbled, looking down at his feet.

Y/n smiled understandingly. She knew that Jungwon was easily frightened, but she also knew that he was brave in his own way, facing his fears and working to overcome them every day.

"It's okay," she said again, squeezing his hand. "Let's go get our books and head to class."

As they walked to their lockers, Y/n couldn't help but feel a warmth in her chest as she thought about the way Jungwon had clung to her. She knew that he saw her as a friend, but she couldn't help but hope that someday he would see her as something more.

For now, though, she was content just to be by his side, helping him face his fears and supporting him in whatever way he needed. And maybe, just maybe, one day he would realize that she was the one he had been looking for all along.

Y/n and Jungwon made their way to their seats in their first-period class. As they settled in, Y/n couldn't help but notice the way Jungwon seemed to shrink into himself, his hood pulled up over his head and his mask covering his face.

She could see the embarrassment written all over his body language and couldn't help but find it cute and adorable.

Trying to ease the tension, Y/n whispered, "Don't worry about it, Jungwon. You can't help it if you get scared easily. We all have our fears."

Jungwon nodded, but Y/n could still see the anxiety in his eyes.

The teacher began the lesson, and Y/n tried to focus on the material, but her attention kept drifting back to Jungwon. She watched as he fidgeted with his pencil, his eyes darting nervously around the room.

Finally, Y/n couldn't take it anymore. She reached over and tugged on Jungwon's hood, pulling it back to reveal his face.

Jungwon jumped in surprise, but Y/n just laughed. "There, that's better. Now I can see your cute face."

Jungwon's face turned bright red, and he quickly pulled his hood back up. But Y/n just smiled, enjoying the way she could tease him and make him feel more comfortable.
