The Fake Date x Goo Kim

14

You're sleeping when Goo arrives back at his apartment, so you don't hear him come in or come over to you at all. It isn't until you feel your head being lifted up ever so slightly, that you stir and open your eyes only a fraction.

When you do, you see Goo looking up at the TV while eating his dinner and then you realize that your head is on his lap. You don't want to move or even let on that you're away. So instead you just close your eyes again. Falling asleep.

Once you wake up for the second time, Goo is nowhere to be seen. You think for a moment. Was that a dream?. Was I just dreaming?. No. No, that had to be real. That was real. Only a few moments after reassuring yourself that what happened wasn't a dream, Goo appeared at the top of the stairs.

"Oh, she lives" Goo Says sarcastically.

"Ha ha. What time is it?"

"No need to be so miserable after you wake. I mean you were dead to the world. I was having my doubts you were still alive. Oh and it's...6:08pm"

"Ok, thanks. When did you get back?"

"Abooouut, an hour about"

"Ok. Oh, thanks for leaving the note. I was slightly worried when you weren't here" You say this as you're still in your groggy stage of getting up. So you don't even recognise that you just said you were worried about Goo.

Once you're up and not feeling groggy, you look over at Goo. He's just smiling. He's not looking at the TV or his phone or anything in the apartment. He's just smiling, so sheepishly that you're intrigued to know what's causing him to smile so much. But then Goo looks at you, still smiling.

You raise and eyebrow at him. In response Goo just shrugs his shoulders. You sigh and shake your head back and forth. Then after all the dramatical effects both of you have been doing to one another. You look at each other and just burst out laughing. None of you stop until you start wheezing and Goo starts snorting. But again, you both just look at each and laugh even harder.

This goes on for another 5 minutes, in which time, things only get funnier. Eventually after another few minutes, you stop. Both trying to catch a breath. You hadn't laughed like that in so long, it was nice, this was nice. You think for a minute and discover that you're calling this moment with Goo, nice, fun even. Wow, he's really gotten under your skin these last few days.

Then you think back, back to when you both hated each other. Well, when you just hated Goo. After all, Goo never really hated you. He admitted that. You think back to the night in the study, how he was so close to your face when you first brought up the fake dating idea to him. You think about how your father reacted and how you defended Goo. Then how Goo reacted to you defending him. You think about how he let you in last night, bought you clothes and necessities that you would need. He even bought you extras, 'just incase'.

Then you think about how you fell asleep together. How Goo kissed the back of your neck and wished you goodnight. How he left the note for you. How he was looking at you in the picture at the theme park and eventually your mind fell back to the time where Goo had kissed you. He kissed you to 'prove' your relationship wasn't "fake".

You smile at the thought of the kiss. At the thought that just a few days ago he kissed you and you felt disgusted and angry. Then you look at Goo, who's just now caught his breath. You look at him and just think some more. You watch him. Then you smile. You're smiling at everything that's happened the last couple of days.

But what you're really smiling about is the thought you just had. That thought being that you wouldn't have wanted to go through this with Gun. I mean you hadn't really thought about him at all these last couple of days, even though you're doing all of this to get Gun's attention. The irony. But the one person you were happy to go through this all with, is Goo.
