Out of my league | Jaehyun x Woonhak

"Hey Jaehyun?" "Yeah?" "Do you maybe like Kim Woonhak?" "What? what do you mean?" "I don't know, you just seem really- entranced by him" "no, no, no way" "I honestly agree with Riwoo" "You always agree with Sungho!" The oldest boy rolled his eyes. He maybe did sometimes agree with Riwoo but this time, he actually did believe that his boyfriend was correct.

"Why'd you think I like him?" "Well, firstly, you're the only person who decided to help him" "that means absolutely nothing" "Why'd you say that?" "Because, you smiled" "I smile?" Jaehyun rolled his eyes and turned around. "Your reasons are stupid, I don't like him ok?" "Right mhm" "We'll leave you alone" Leehan acted like the  oldest here. He was the most mature of all the boys right now despite being the youngest.

"Fine you're right" "I just wanna say Sungho, you're almost eighte-" "I just turned seventeen, I still have time" "Fine, you're seventeen, you should be knowledgeable enough to know when someone doesn't want to talk" Leehan entered the building as the bell rang. "Wait Leehan!" Jaehyun followed him, so did the couple.

"Why are you so excited to go to geography?" "Cause it's cold outside" "it's 10°, it isn't cold" "Wrong way" The second youngest boy grabbed the fish lover from the hood of his hoodie. "Ow!" He rubbed his neck and went up the stairs. "Room 125!" "Stop being so enthusiastic!"

The youngest of the four boys rolled his eyes and went to his seat. "Ok, so what do we do?" "Start working?" "No shit sherlock, but the time that our class arrives, what do we do?" Jaehyun went to the leehan's table and took one of the pieces of paper next to Leehan's copybooks.

He started writing something. "What are you doing hyung?" "Hangman?" "Oh! Sure, O!" "Sungho, you areeeee nothing" "wha-?" "I haven't written the word yet dumbass" "Hey! Don't treat him like this!" "Riwoo, stop defending your boyfriend on whatever happens to him" The shortest boy rolled his eyes and noticed that Jaehyun had finally finished writing. Jaehyun's word was six letters long.

"Ok, can I finally say it?" "Yes hyung" "O!" "Nope" "oh" "Riwoo, a letter?" "Uh- I?" "Yes" On the paper was written _ _ _ i _ _ "What could it be?" "Leehan?" "A?" "No!"

The three boys continued guessing, they had only found half of the words. "Maybe a C?" "Finally!" C_yi_g was the word. "R?" "There you go! Just in time! I hear people coming!" "So the last letter is n?" "Yes!" "Why that word?" "It's kinda depressing" "I mean, Jaehyun does always cry" "Hey!"

A girl had entered the class and greeted the four boys. "Myung Jaehyun?" "Yeah?" "Could you meet me on the roof during lunch?" "I guess?" "Thank you, oh by the way, I'm not sure you know my name, I'm Kim Sooyoung!" "Ok" The girl bowed and left the classroom. "Oh she isn't even in our class"

"Obviously, I think she was  in my brother's class, I think she had to redo a year, I've heard of a Sooyoung once" Jaehyun recalled "I actually forgot you had a brother" "Yeah, well, I don't often talk about him." A couple of seconds afterwards, students from their class entered.

"Wow, you guys seem like you've been here for a while" "I guess?" "I kept getting lost" Taesan and Woonhak went to their seats. "How did you get lost?" "I don't actually know"

Woonhak buried his head on his table. "Oh! No need to feel embarrassed" "I'm not embarrassed, just tired." "Oh ok"

The teacher and the rest of the class came. "oh great, I really don't want to do this" "Understandable"

"Thank you for meeting me up here, I promise I won't make it too long" "Ok, go ahead, say what you need, I'll listen." The older girl took a deep breath before starting her- well, it isn't exactly a rant, but let's just call it a mini rant.

"Ok, Myung Jaehyun, I sometimes see you in the courtyard, when you're with your brother, not always, but you sometimes are with him. And I find you really cute, you have such a nice smile, and you seem like a really fun person, and I realised recently that I've developed feelings for you, so I'm here, confessing to you, confessing my feelings to you."

Most people would be pretty surprised by a confession, even if they didn't like the person.

Not Myung Jaehyun.

He was used to confessions, it did often make him feel more confident, but he knew how everything went. Many many girls had opened up about their feelings towards him. And all of them had been rejected. Of course kindly, but they were still rejected.

He's been confessed by many girls but one he remembered clearly was when one of the most popular, and one of the prettiest girls in the school confessed to him. Last year, in the middle of the cafeteria, she came up to him and just told him that she liked him.

So right there, in front of probably a hundred students. Jaehyun told her "I don't like you"

So her popularity dipped, rapidly. She became an outcast, Jaehyun felt really bad, but what would he tell her? Lie? And be unhappy, no. So he had to tell the truth.

"So, what do you say?" "I'm sorry, I don't like you" "Do you not like anyone? You've rejected everyone who's confessed" "I do, but that is something you don't have to know" "Well, I wish you good luck with her" "Her? Mhm yeah, thank you" The younger boy left and joined his friends.

"Good luck with her" Why did the 'her' disturb him, it isn't like he never liked a girl? Right. He thought about the girls he liked. The number was the amount of people you've pulled (A/n: so sorry, that came out on its own). So zero, he's often found guys extremely attractive, just like girls. But he may have caught feelings sometimes.

Jaehyun gasped audibly. "What's wrong?" "I'm gay" "Welcome to the club" "you've just realised?" "That took you way too long, like- it was written on your forehead" "Right right, stop making fun of me, I've just realised now, so let's not make a big deal of it"
