Have we met? ∰

Sunghoon POV:

Chapter: have we met?

I sat at my usual spot in the school library, my gaze fixated on the pages of my book, but my mind wandering to someone entirely different. Minkyu. The new kid with an aura of mystery and rebellion that both intrigued and intimidated me. From the moment he walked through those doors, he became an enigma I couldn't resist.

As I stole glances across the room, Minkyu sat at a table surrounded by his newfound friends. His dark hair fell effortlessly over his eyes, adding to the air of mystery that surrounded him. There was something magnetic about his presence, something that drew me in like a moth to a flame. But as much as I yearned to approach him, my fear held me back.

"You okay, Sunghoon?" Jake's voice brought me back to reality, and I quickly closed my book, hiding my thoughts.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I replied, my voice betraying a hint of distraction.

Jake raised an eyebrow, his eyes scanning the library before settling on me.

"You've been acting strange lately. Anything on your mind?"

I hesitated for a moment, my gaze shifting towards Minkyu once again before I sighed softly.

"It's... it's nothing. Just some... teenage nonsense."

Sunoo, who had been listening silently, leaned closer, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"Come on, Sunghoon. You can tell us. We're your friends."

I swallowed the lump in my throat, a mixture of nervousness and vulnerability bubbling within me.

"Fine, but promise not to judge me. I... I have this... secret admiration for Minkyu."

Jake's eyes widened, a smirk playing on his lips.

"Ah, the bad boy got under your skin, huh?"

I blushed, my cheeks turning a shade of pink.

"It's not like that. I mean, yes, he's intriguing, but I'm just... scared to approach him. I don't know how he'll react."

Sunoo placed a comforting hand on my shoulder.

"We understand, Sunghoon. It can be intimidating to approach someone who gives off such a strong presence. But if it's something you desire, maybe it's worth taking a chance."

I nodded, their words offering a glimmer of hope amidst my insecurities. Maybe it was time to step out of my comfort zone and face my fears. Minkyu was worth the risk.

Days turned into weeks, and the secret flame within me burned brighter. I found myself mustering up the courage to steal glances, exchanging fleeting smiles, and occasionally finding myself in the same vicinity as Minkyu. The thought of striking up a conversation still sent jitters down my spine, but I knew I had to take that leap.

One afternoon, as I walked down the hallway lost in my thoughts, fate intervened. Minkyu turned the corner and our eyes met, an unspoken connection forming between us. I saw a flicker of recognition in his gaze, a hint of curiosity that mirrored my own.

Summoning all my bravery, I approached him slowly.

"Hey, Minkyu. I'm Sunghoon. We haven't officially met yet."

Minkyu's lips curled into a slight smile, his eyes gleaming with intrigue.

"Sunghoon. I've noticed you around. What's on your mind?"

With each word, my nervousness faded away, replaced by a newfound confidence. The conversation flowed effortlessly, revealing shared interests, dreams, and aspirations. I discovered that beneath his tough exterior, Minkyu carried a vulnerability that mirrored my own.

As we talked, I realized that our connection went beyond mere admiration. There was a spark between us, an unspoken understanding that transcended words. We were two souls drawn to each other, navigating the uncharted territory of unspoken desires.

And in that moment, I realized that sometimes, the things we fear the most hold the key to our truest desires. It was through taking that leap of faith, opening my heart to possibilities, that I found the courage to explore the depths of my feelings for Minkyu.

Little did I know, this newfound connection would pave the way for a journey of self-discovery, love, and the realization that sometimes, the most extraordinary things come from embracing our deepest desires.
