"I wanted to ask.. sorry if its a little invasion, but.." Soobin and Beomgyu were sitting together on a hill watching the sunset. "Whats going on between you and Yeonjun?" Soobin asked. "Oh! We are just.. perfect strangers..?" Beomgyu replied, unsure. "Yeah right. I see the way you look at each other, it almost seems like you guys are a couple." Soobin said. "No.. Thats never gonna happen.." Beomgyu sounded very unsure again. "Do you.. like him?" Soobin asked.

Beomgyu chuckled nervously and rubbed his neck. "You know, I have been talking to Wonyoung-" He got interrupted by Soobin groaning. "Listen! We are going on a date today." Beomgyu smiled. "Tell me the truth. Do you really love Wonyoung? Or is she there to get over the feelings you have with Yeonjun." Soobin asked. "N-No! I-It's not like that.." Beomgyu yelled. "The more you hide your feelings for someone.. the more you fall for them." Soobin said. "I-I'm serious.. I don't like Yeonjun.." Beomgyu replied.

"Yeah.. You keep telling yourself that. But I know what I see!" Soobin ran away.

Beomgyu was about to go to sleep until he got text message. "Who's texting me this late..?" Beomgyu asked himself. He saw it was Yeonjun. He said, 'meet me in the cherry blossom garden' Beomgyu was confused on why Yeonjun was asking that, but he listen anyway and walked over there.

Once he did, he saw Yeonjun waiting for him. "Oh hey! You actually showed up." Yeonjun smiled. "This better be important.. I was getting ready to go to bed." Beomgyu sighed. "You know.. This is where most people come to confess their love." Yeonjun said. "W-What? What are you saying?" Beomgyu asked. "Don't get the wrong idea." Yeonjun chuckled. "Why did you want to meet here..?" Beomgyu asked again. "I wanted to return this." Yeonjun replied.

Yeonjun was holding a jacket of Beomgyus. Beomgyu felt extremely disappointed, but he didn't know why. "That's it?! Thats what I came here for?! What a waste of!-" He got cut off by Yeonjun. "What did you expect? What, did you want me to confess my feelings?" Yeonjun asked. "W-What?" Beomgyu asked back, lost at what he was saying. "You want to know how I feel about you, right?" Yeonjun asked again.

"If you just wanted to return this, why did you do it here? Out of all places!" Beomgyu scoffed. "Maybe cause I wanted to? Is that so wrong?" Yeonjun asked. "This is where people find love. You are giving me mixed feelings here!" Beomgyu yelled. "You don't think I like you or anything, do you?" Yeonjun asked. "So you follow me around all the time, want to protect me and call me all these sweet nicknames, but you won't admit you like me?!" Beomgyu shouted. "Just because I follow you doesn't mean I like you." Yeonjun replied.

Beomgyu sighed. "Why do you do this.." Beomgyu mumbled. "Do what?" Yeonjun asked. "You keep playing with my feelings like this.. I'm so sick of this game you are playing!" Beomgyu looked down at the floor. "A game..? Is that what you think it is?" Yeonjun asked. "You find this entertaining, don't you? Well you know what? I'm done." Beomgyu said louder. "What..?" Yeonjun was confused.

Beomgyu turned away. "Leave me alone. I have a date tomorrow and I-" He got cut off once again. "With your ex-girlfriend? Do you even like her..?" Yeonjun asked. "I want to fall in love with her." Beomgyu replied. "You can't be with her? She cheated on you before and-" Beomgyu stopped him. "Shut up! You can't keep controlling who I can and can't be with! Just leave me alone! I don't want to talk to you anymore!" Beomgyu yelled.

Yeonjun looked at Beomgyu shocked, he then changed his expression to something that was a little hard for Beomgyu to understand. "Fine. You want space? I will give you space." Yeonjun shoved the jacket in Beomgyus hands and walked away.

Beomgyu and Wonyoung were walking to see a movie. "Its actually a new movie! I hope you are excited to see it with me." Wonyoung smiled. "Yes! I really am excited." Beomgyu replied. "Whats the movie about?" Beomgyu asked right after. "Some sort of dark fairy falling in love with a angel fairy? Something like that." Wonyoung laughed.

The movie started and they both watched it. "Want any snacks Wonyoung?" Beomgyu asked. "No its fine." She laughed. "If you want anything, let me know." Beomgyu smiled and her.

After the movie finished, they went to the beach and sat on the sand. The water was so clear you could see all the fishes. "That fish is cute." Beomgyu pointed at one. "Like you." Wonyoung laughed and so did Beomgyu.

Yeonjun was in his room, thinking about what had happened with Beomgyu. It kept repeating in his head. He suddenly got a phone call and snapped out of it. He answered and it was his friend Hyunjin. "Hello?" Yeonjun said. "What are you doing?!" Hyunjin yelled. "What do you want." Yeonjun sighed. "Beomgyu is on a date with Wonyoung! They are at the beach!" Hyunjin said.

"So? I don't care." Yeonjun said. "You told me to call you whenever I see him so I-" He got cut off by Yeonjun. "It doesn't matter anymore." Yeonjun hung up.

Beomgyu was watching the sunset with Wonyoung on a tall hill. "And then we went to soccer practice.. but I lost the ball! The coach was so mad.." Wonyoung giggled. Beomgyu laughed as well. "Hey Beomgyu, we have been having such a great time, but I want you to be honest with me about something." Wonyoung said. "What is it?" Beomgyu asked. "Do you.. love me?" Wonyoung asked back.

Beomgyu opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out. "I-It's okay! You don't have to say it yet if you aren't comfortable.." Wonyoung said. "It's not that.. It's just.. I need time." Beomgyu replied. "Take all the time you need." Wonyoung looked away from Beomgyu. "I had a good time." Beomgyu smiled. "So did I." Wonyoung got up slowly. "I can't wait to go on a date with you again." Wonyoung said. "I'll see you in school tomorrow." Beomgyu said back.

Beomgyu said his goodbye and Wonyoung ran off. "I thought she would never leave." Beomgyu jumped, only to see Yeonjun there. "I thought I td you to leave me alone!" Beomgyu yelled. "But, you couldn't stop thinking about me, could you?" Yeonjun asked. "I was not!" Beomgyu turned away. "Why do you blush every time you see me?" Yeonjun asked again.

"I-Its just hot out here okay?" Beomgyu said. "Are you sure? It looks like its about to-" Right as Yeonjun said that, it started raining really hard. "Oh no! Not now!" Beomgyu whined. "You want to know how I feel about you, right?" Yeonjun grabbed an umbrella and put it over them. "I.. W-Well.. I-Isn't it obvious already..?" Yeonjun asked. "What is?" Beomgyu asked back. "How I feel.." Yeonjun replied. "No. You need to say it clearly." Beomgyu crossed his arms.

Yeonjun sighed. "I think about you all the time." He started. "And.. What does that mean?" Beomgyu asked. "It means, you are all I care about." Yeonjun replied. "So in other words?" Beomgyu asked again. "Well.. Some would call it love." Yeonjun sighed. "I.." Beomgyu couldn't say anything.

Suddenly lightning struck and it scared Beomgyu. Beomgyu had jumped into Yeonjuns arms. "We should go inside.. It's not safe to be out here.." Yeonjun grabbed Beomgyu and lead him to a nearby building that was completely empty.

"T-Thanks for the umbrella.." Beomgyu mumbled. "Don't worry about it." Yeonjun said. "Did you mean what you said out there..?" Beomgyu asked. "What?" Yeonjun asked back. "You said.. you love me.." Beomgyu explained, looking up at Yeonjun. "Uh- Yeah I guess I said something like that." Yeonjun said. "Do you mean it..?" Beomgyu asked. "Well.. I wouldn't lie to you." Yeonjun smiled and so did Beomgyu.

"Hey Taehyun.. I don't trust Wonyoung.." Soobin said. They were in their apartment room. "Soobin you have said this so many times.. we have to be happy for Beomgyu." Taehyun said back. "No! But last time.. I saw her going into a classroom with another boy.." Soobin explained. "Wait really?" Taehyun asked. "Yeah.. I know they aren't dating yet.. but thats still wrong!" Soobin yelled.

"But what if its just her friend? Or her cousin or aomething?" Taehyun suggested. "Maybe.. I think you're right.. Maybe I'm just overthinking everything.." Soobin said.
