The Fake Date x Goo Kim

15

You wake up the next morning with a cramp in your neck, probably from lying on the sofa at a weird angle. You slowly wake up and gaze at your surroundings, familiarizing yourself that you are still at Goo's apartment.

You get up and do what can only be described as distracting yourself from thoughts of last night. You kissed Goo. Not because you had to but because you wanted to.

You get a cup of coffee, brush your teeth after and go in the shower. All while you're still thinking about Goo. Goo this, Goo that. Until finally you think that it is Gun that you should be thinking about.

So you try to think about Gun, you think about all the fun times you had with him and how he gets you. Then as if clockwork, Goo jumps straight back into your thoughts as he descends the stairs.

"Hey" You say as casually as you can.

"Hi" Goo says back in a somewhat cold manner.

"How are you?" You ask him, trying to lighten up the conversation but to no avail.

"Mhm" Goo responds back. You can't help but think your lack of 'caring' last night about this kiss and how cold you were after have something to do with this. But again, you try to converse with Goo.

"So, how did you sleep last night?" You ask.

"Good"

"Good, that's...well good!" You say back, AGAIN trying to lighten the mood. But at this point you're hoping that it's just down to Goo waking up.

"Yup"

"Well coffee's ready if you want a cup. I thought I should make you some, show you how thankful I am that you let me stay here these past few nights" You say to Goo.

"Thanks"

"No problem"

The room goes quiet after that. No conversations to be had and none that you wanted to start. So you go and sit down and start drinking your coffee in complete silence.

Goo joins you, but sits far away to the point that you know he is avoiding you in the best way he can. You just continue to drink your coffee and not chat until there's a knock at the door.

You immediately look at the door, then to the clock that is sitting in the living room. 7:46am. Who can be here at 7:46am?. Until you hear the voice. His voice. Gun's voice.

You don't even have enough time to get up and go somewhere, let alone hide. Then Goo, as cool as a cucumber, just says "It's open".

You look at Goo, then look at the door which Gun is now standing in. Gun just looks at you and then to Goo.

"Told you she's here. She's been here for the past 2 nights" Goo says.

Taken aback by what Goo has just said, you look at him. He stares right back at you with a completely straight face. No hint of emotion present on it at all. No anger. No hurt. No surprise...no surprise.

"You called Gun" You say looking at Goo. But he doesn't speak.

"YOU CALLED GUN" You say again this time raising your voice, as well as yourself off the sofa.

"Yes, Goo called me" Gun chimes in.

"I wasn't asking you" You say back to Gun, not taking your eyes off of Goo.

"Yes, I called Gun" Goo eventually says.

You're shocked at how casually this conversation is for him. How..normal it is that he's called Gun to get you. Normal. Huh. You suppose it is normal for Gun to come and get you. But you didn't think it would be Goo to call him first.

All you can do after thinking for a moment is to nod your head. You know what this is about and why it's happened. But wasn't it inevitable?. Wasn't this how it was always going to be?. You would have to go back to your father's house at some point, but you thought you might have had another night.

Another night to stay with Goo. To be around Goo. To sort out what had happened between you both. Your...feelings for Goo. But no. All because of a miscommunication that you caused, this is now a thing that's happening.

Right here, right now - Gun is picking you up from Goo's apartment, after Goo was the one to call him. Great, you think to yourself. Just great.

An hour later you and Gun are leaving Goo's apartment. Goo has just sat, emotionless, while you've gathered the slight part of "your" things that were scattered around. After doing that and leaving the clothes Goo bought you, you go towards Gun.

"You've got everything?" Gun asks.

"Yes, now can we go" You say back to him, while looking at your feet because the fact is you can't look at Goo. Not right now at least.

"Again, thank you for telling me where she was" Gun says back to Goo before leaving. But just as the door was closing you could see the smirk on Gun's face and the slight look of despair on Goo's.
