Only You [Dino Seventeen Fanfic]

36

"That's amazing, Jang-mi." Dino smiles as they reach the front of his house. "You're gonna do great. I know it."

"Thanks Chan." She says before looking up at Minjaes house. "Oh my gosh, have I been talking about my presentation the whole time!? I'm so sorry!"

"No, it's okay!"

She sighs. "I guess I've just wanted to tell someone about it all along, I just never got the chance to."

"I'm sure Minjae must've loved to hear about it."

"I actually haven't told him about it." She looks down at her feet. "He's always so stressed from work, I never wanna bug him about my work."

"But isn't it next week? Didn't you say he's your model for the presentation?" He asks. "Since Seojun didn't want to do it?"

"Yeah, but he just has to be there. He doesn't really have to know what it's about."

"That makes no sense." He scratches his head. "Sorry, in my opinion, if I was the one who had to model for you, I'd want to know every detail so that I could do my best and present myself correctly."

"True, true." She lets out a deep breath. "Maybe in my next presentation, I'll have you be my model."

He chuckles. "Deal."

They both awkwardly stand there and look around. "Um, thanks for walking me home." She says before lifting her hand and waving goodbye. She takes a few steps.

"Hey, Jang-mi?" She stops and turns back to him. "About what I said yesterday, I didn't mean to-"

"It's okay." She quickly stops him. "You were drunk, I'm not too worried about it."

"Jang-mi, what are we doing?" He sighs.

She slaps her forehead. "I don't know." They both begin laughing before going back to awkwardly being in eachothers presence.

He holds his breath. "I'm really happy for you."

She looks up at him. "What?"

"Seo told me how hard it was on you after that day, and to be honest I feel really stupid about my choice of words." He squeezes his eyes shut and throws his head back. "I guess what I'm saying is that I blew it and I shouldn't have let you go like that."

"Chan..."

"But I'm glad you found someone and something that works for you." She looks away. "Though it's not with me, I love that you're happy." He rocks back and forth on his heels. "Is he good to you?"

She looks back at him. "Yeah. He treats me well."

"That's good." He smiles and puts out his hand. "Friends?"

She walks back over and shakes it. "Friends."

"Well, uh, I'll probably see you around."

She nods. "Goodnight Chan."

"Night." He nods toward Minjaes house. "I'll wait for you to go inside."

She waves before rushing next door. He watches as she knocks on the door and waits for someone to open it. As soon as she disappeared inside, Chan lets out a long sigh before walking into his house.
He takes off his shoes and heads upstairs to shower.

Meanwhile, Jang-mi takes off her shoes and heads up the stairs and straight to Minjaes room.

"Hey, I thought you were sleeping over at your dads." Minjae says when she walks through the door.

"Uh, I didn't feel like it." She says before looking through his drawers.

"On the chair." He points to one of the chairs that had her pajamas nicely set on it. "You should've told me, I would've met you halfway so you didn't have to walk alone."
