My Secret Lover | HEESEUNG

12- Caught

Y/N'S POV;

"Y/n, is that what I think it is?" Sunghoon asks me. I pursed my lips, looking away from his eyes in silence. Oh god, I was hiding it so good, why did I have to get caught?

"Y/n is that a hickey??" Goddammit. I quickly pulled Sunghoon in to shut the bathroom door. "Y/n you better give me an answer, you didn't get harassed at the party, did you? That's not the reason why you're hiding it right?" I shook my head at his words. He placed his hand on his heart, sighing in relief.

"You know, if Jay knew–" "He would freak out, I know..." I cut Sunghoon off, finishing his sentence. "Right, if a stranger didn't do this to you, who did? I swear I'm going to beat him up–" "It was Jake."

Sunghoon froze in his position. His mouth fell open in utter shock. "As in Shim Jaeyun? Our Shim Jaeyun? Our Jake?" I nodded, biting my lip in embarrassment. "I– How did this even happen??"

I shrugged, "It's kind of complicated, but I just had a lot on my mind and I guess I wanted a distraction? So I may or may not have kissed him..." I admitted. "And from there... this," I point to my hickey, "was made." "Okay, wow, uh, this is a lot. I think I'm going to faint," Sunghoon says, pretending to faint.

I playfully rolled my eyes at his silly action. "But we were tipsy... we weren't in our right state of mind," I explain as I fiddled with my fingers, looking down at my feet. "And you two are okay? No awkwardness?" I nodded again, "Yeah, we are close after all, my relationship with you and Jake are platonic.

"Uh huh... don't come running at me next week telling me you caught feelings for the dude," Sunghoon warns me, crossing his arms. "Pft, as if," I answer, crossing my arm as well, turning my head somewhere else. "Don't lie, you've liked him at least once in your life."

My head slowly turns back, looking at Sunghoon. "Maybe when we were little, BUT that doesn't matter now!!" Sunghoon hummed with his lips curling at the corners of his mouth. "What do you think of him now? He grew up, no way you don't think he's attractive." I took a moment to think, chewing on my bottom lip.

"Okay, well... he is... especially the night of the party, BUT I WAS TIPSY REMEMBER?" I say, trying to prove my statement. Sunghoon didn't seem to buy it though. "Hoonnn, I'm not lyinggg, even if I find him alluring right now, I'll get over it," I whine as I sway his arm back and forth, still trying to convince him.

Sunghoon just hums. "Hey, you better not tell anyone, ESPECIALLY JAY," I warned him, pointing my finger at him. "Sure, you're lucky we're close because I would go tell Jay right now if I wasn't fond of you." "Good, that's what a best friend should do," I say, grinning.

"What should I do with the hoodie? It's so freaking hot I don't want to wear it, but I don't want this showing," I say with worry tied in my voice. Sunghoon took a moment to think. "How about you wear my thinner jacket? I brought it with me to wear when I go home later. Just be quick so no one notices." I thanked him before opening the bathroom door.

"Though if Jay found out, he would get over it quickly since he trusts Jake a lot," Sunghoon adds as we walk out of the bathroom, arms linked. "If I found out about what?" Jay asks, furrowing his eyebrows together. Shit, how did I not notice Jay walking here? "Nothing," I quickly answered and grabbed Sunghoon's wrist, walking away to the living room.

"Park Y/n."

My feet stopped moving and I froze. My heart starts beating fast, afraid of the next words that I'll have to hear. I was afraid to turn around, so I didn't. The boys were still busy doing their things to not turn their heads around to the three of us.

"Yes?" You could hear how nervous I was in my voice. "Are you two hiding something from me?" Jay asks sternly. I just stood there in silence. I saw the boys turn their heads around to look at us out of curiosity. Shit.
