The Fake Date x Goo Kim

11

You continue to look at Goo but this time it's with confusion. You both stare at each other for what feels like hours, but you know it's only been about 20 seconds. Goo then breaks the silence first.

"Don't look at me like that"

"Don't look at you like what. Like you didn't just say that you've never hated me? Also, what do you even mean by that? You mean you've never hated me ever, even when I was a bitch to you or you've never hated me because you..."

You stall with the last thing that you're about to say because you're not sure if you want to know the answer to it. Goo looks at you as if forming his answer, but then he just starts to speak his mind. Or at least what you think is him speaking his mind, but then again this is Goo, he always says what he's thinking.

"What I mean when I say I've never hated you is that, well, I've never hated you. I can't explain it, I just never have. I think it's because you're so easy to rile up that even when you are a bitch, it's fun. You speak the truth, try and hit me, obviously I dodge with ease and you just gradually get more and more pissy, which in turn makes it even more fun. It's a constant cycle you see" Goo says this with so much conviction and pleasure in his voice that you think he's getting a kick out of it. Almost as if at this very moment he's trying to piss you off.

You just continue to look at Goo with a little less confusion now, but more annoyance rather than anything else. Goo just looks at you and starts to laugh because he knows that he's got you annoyed. Which makes you even more annoyed.

"You know it really is easy to piss you off" Goo says while trying to stifle his laughter.

"Oh fuck off" You say as you're gradually getting more angry.

"What, it is. It's not my fault it's easy, that part is kinda on you"

"You know how you just said that you've never hated me?" You say lacing it with a hint of snarkiness.

"Yes?" Goo says confused.

"Well I can't say the same thing about you" You say this with all the snarkiness and pettiness you can muster.

"Oh come on, don't be like that" Goo says sarcastically.

"Oh yeah and why shouldn't I be like this?" You say, snapping back at him.

"Because you're just proving my point"

You know that you can't argue with him anymore because he's right. You will be proving his point if you continue to argue with him and get even more snappier. But the thing is that right now you are proving his point. Even the way that you just spoke to him proves his point and you hate that he's right.

"Also what were you going to say?" Goo asks you.

"What was I going to say, when?" You ask.

"When you were asking me what I mean when I said I didn't hate you"

You just look at Goo confused because you've already forgotten the conversation with Goo being such a pain. Goo then sighs and speaks again.

"Y'know, the part where you trailed off. "Or you've never hated me because you...". Y'know that part?" Goo questions, but the only thing you can think of is how he just tried to mimic your voice. You're slightly annoyed but at the same time you also try not to laugh at him. But then you remember what you were going to say after that last part.

"OH, that was nothing, just ignore that last part" You say now getting slightly flustered by what you thought.

Goo just looks at you, his brows furrowed as if he's saying that's bullshit and you know it. But you're not about to tell him the truth and you're sure as hell not going to tell him that you were thinking that he might...like you. That thought has to be burned out of your brain immediately. Goo just nods his head and then doesn't speak of it again.

You both finish your glasses of wine, not saying a word to one another. Eventually Goo gets up and you think he's going to pour you both another glass, but instead he walks upstairs. You assume he's going to bed and that he's leaving you to fend for yourself. Selfish asshole. But then Goo emerges with a blanket and a few pillows.

"I'm tired so I'm going to bed. You take the bed, it's upstairs, first door on the left. I'll take the sofa" Goo says.

You're not entirely sure what to make of it. He's letting you take the bed and he's the one taking the sofa, after you show up unannounced. That doesn't seem right.

"No it's ok. I'll take the sofa, I mean I am the one who just turned up" You say sarcastically. Goo laughs at your statement, but then proceeds to usher you off the sofa as he lays down the pillows and the blanket and lays down.

"I did just say that I would take the couch. I mean I'm pretty sure you heard me say it right?" You question Goo because his actions are surprising you even more now.

"Yup I heard you. But I just didn't care enough to go back upstairs. Anyway, off you go, go to bed" The way that Goo says this makes you feel little. Not little as if you feel beneath him, but little as if you're a little kid again and you don't like it.

"Goo seriously. You're really annoying me now. I told you I'll take the sofa, you go back up to bed. It's your apartment so I'm fine with it, just go" Your words come off frosty, which is what you were intending. But as you're walking towards him getting ready to yank the blanket back and push him off the sofa if need be, he turns, just as your about to do so.

"I told you take the bed"

"And I told you no"

You're standing over Goo now, arms folded over your chest. You do feel as if you're being a little child at this moment. But in all honesty, you're not letting Goo have the couch because you would feel bad.

"Fine" Goo says after about 10 seconds or so of you standing in front of him.

"Good" You say somewhat feeling accomplished that you've now won the argument. But Goo doesn't get up.

"Are you getting up?" You question. But before he even gives you an answer, you're pulled down onto the sofa next to Goo.

"What are you doing!" You yell.

"All I said was fine. I never said I was going to go to bed. But you were adamant about having the sofa. So now you've got the sofa" You shiver at his words because he's right behind you, whispering in your ear. Holding onto your waist as he's speaking.

"But..." Is all you can say before Goo grumbles into the back of your neck. You don't want to move because you wouldn't feel as if you won. And I mean technically you hadn't won, but you still got the sofa, right?.
