Eight is Fate (Stray Kids Soulmate & School AU)

They're Exposed

Hana's POV

"Changbin!" I shout, but it reaches empty ears as he is no longer in earshot. "What's up with him?" I question the two boys in front of me, their expressions wavering on the side of knowing something.

"He's... Jealous," Chan mutters, his voice barely hitting my ears.

"Jealous?" I burst. "What could he be jealous of?"
"Hana, My Love, I know you're not that dense," Chan commented, perking a brow at me. "Think about it."

And thought about it I did. I sat back down in my chair and attempted to recollect my memories.

"He likes...me?" I ask, peering up at my two soulmates. "And the whole soulmate conversation was...too hard for him?"

Jisung and Chan nodded, both of them had their heads down in shame, knowing this would happen.

"Why would you do that to him?" I continue. However, I don't let them reply, as I run out of the room, in search of the man I hurt.

"Hana, wait!" I hear them call, but I don't care. I have to make it right with him.

Any means necessary.

Changbin's POV

I ran with nowhere in mind, just out of the torture I had let myself be conceived with. I like Hana and everyone knows, so when is it going to be my turn with her? Where is my happy ending? I know she and I are bound by the depths of soulmates, but when will it be my time to prove it?

Therefore, I ran; Making a fool out of myself in the process, of course. Cause what's a sad love story without some embarrassing angst.

I ended up in the small park right behind the school. There are a lot of people studying or doing their own thing, adding to my own hysteria.

Hiding behind a tree, I dig my face into my knees and begin to sob.

Even if Hana isn't my soulmate, it would be nice to kiss her to find out. I just want to feel her warm touch one last time before...it's too late.

"Changbin!" I hear her soft voice call. I thought I was hallucinating at first, but when she suddenly appeared in front of me, she kneeled down in front of me, I could tell she was real.

"Go away," I murmur, placing my head further in my knees. I hate dismissing her, but I don't need her pity right now.

Hana moved suddenly, instead of kneeling in front of me, she positioned herself to be sitting right next to me. She then placed her head on my shoulder, as if we were on the bus.

"Chan and Jisung told me you were jealous," Hana begins after a few moments of silence. "Why?"

I didn't speak for a few moments and Hana took it upon herself to talk once more.

"Please Changbin, I want to make it right with you."

"I love you," I confess suddenly. The words just flew out of my mouth before I could filter them to be more my style. "I love you so much. But you won't give me the chance."

"Who said I won't give you the chance?" Hana teased, making me snap my head towards her, my eyes flashing in pure anticipation.

Hana, with sudden confidence, leaned in, pressing my lips to mine. A passionate kiss emerged: Hana tangled her fingers in my hair, pulling gently. A soft gasp erupted from my being and she took the chance to tangle her tongue with mine.

I never expected Hana to be like this...This bold side. I honestly loved it.

Our not-so-subtle makeout continued for another minute or so. I'm not sure how long it lasted if I'm being honest; Time slowed and went ridiculously fast at the same time with her.
