Forgotten Rules • Haechan

3

Me and Haechan got our ice cream and we walked around the mall looking for a place to sit. I have to admit, he was a gentlemen. He gets annoying but he is still very respectful.

"How is it" He spoke as I took another bite of my ice cream. "It's the best ice cream I had" He laughed at my response. "Yeah I can tell, your shirt is eating too"

I looked down at my shirt and yes it was eating too. The ice cream was dripping onto my shirt. "NAUR" Haechan handed me a napkin as I aggressively tried to wipe it off. Great, first Jaemin now this. What's next?

There was a huge stain on my shirt and I couldn't help but just stare at it. While Haechan laughed he handed me his jacket. I looked up at him but he pushed his hand closer insisting that I take it.

"Here, it'll hide the stain" I took it and put it on.

It smells like him

He laughed at me and turned away. "Cute"

"Huh?"

"OH Lina I was going to ask you something." Now he was fully facing me as we sat down. He locked his eyes on mine. What's up with him?

"What is it?" He fixed his posture and cleared his throat. "Cmon get to the point dude"

"Okok...well it's kinda random." He looked away and looked somewhere else.

"Mhm, and what is it?" I noticed his hands fidgeting even more now. What's so important that he had to tell me for him to be this nervous.

"Well... wait first you don't have to do this if you don't want to ok?" He locked his eyes with mine again. He was serious.

"Um"

"Ok. Just tell me already" I rolled my eyes. This guy is really knows how to annoy me. He chuckled a bit but then his smile faded. He did it again.

"I know you still love Jaemin"

My heart dropped. The feelings that I pushed away these years are coming back. I never heard those words.

"Are you kidding me?" I stood up. Is this all it was? He was just trying to talk about my love life?

"Lina listen-" He stood up as well.

"No, you already know I don't-" He grabbed my hand. He held tight. It was the same way he would hold my hand.

"Listen ok?" His eyes were pleading as he looked into mine. I didn't want to listen but I had to face reality. I tried to run away from it so many times but now I'm stopped.

He lead me to sit down with his hand still holding on to mine. He let out a sigh and ran his fingers through his hair. "I still love Lily"

He looked down at his hands then back at me."Lina I can help you" I pulled away from his hands. I scoffed and rolled my eyes at him. Is he serious?

"Why would I need your help?" I looked back at him and his eyes were still on mine. His look on his face changed. He was pleading for something. Why is he looking at me like that?

"Because I know you want him" His eyes were stern. He was serious. Why is he doing this to me? Of course I still love Jaemin. But do I want to? No. So why would I do anything that envied my feelings with him.

Haechan knew what got to me. As much as I hated that he knew he used it against me.

I looked down at my shoes and thought. How bad can it be? I let out a sigh. Then looked back at him.

"Then what do I have to do"

He looked up at me and smiled a bit.

"Be my girlfriend"
