LOVE EXCUSES [HYUNHO] [COLLEGE AU]

12. Rest

Hyunjin's POV

While I was resting, I had a dream about what had happened earlier.

My bestfriend... seriously, why couldn't it be anyone else ?

Not that it wouldn't hurt any less.

But as that thought crossed my mind, I felt a hand press against my forhead.

My eyes fluttered open and I let out a short sob, seeing Minho was the one who had his hand there, but I felt it trail down to wipe my tears, and I sat up in the bed, pulling Minho into a startlingly fast hug.

"Whoa, what's wrong ? Did something happen while I was gone ? Are you sick ? Do you feel warmer than earlier ? What's wrong ?"

The questions made me cry harder as I felt his concern growing as the questions went on.

"N-No more q-questions..."

I sniffled, stuffing my face into his neck as I cried.

I felt one of his hands running through my hair, and rubbing comforting circles onto my back, and I practically melted into him, trying not to cry harder.

"Okay, alright, that's fine, that's totally fine baby, no more questions."

He held me tighter and I sighed, feeling more tears fall as the sobs subsided.

I pulled away from him and he looked down at me, as I was still sitting on the bed, and he pressed a short kiss to my forhead.

The tears only worsened after that and I curled into his arms again.

"I-I'm sorry, was that to forward, I'm sorry, a-and- oh you have a boyfriend- shit, sorry, sorry, sorry."

The apologies were like rapid fire and I let out a sad giggle before responding.

"He-He's not my boyfriend anymore... h-he left me, f-for my bestfriend."

Minho let out a gasp, and coughed raspily afterwards, as he choked on the harsh gasp he let out.

"O-Oh, uh...sorry, really. I-I kinda suck at comforting people."

I giggled softly, pulling away with a nod and a teary smile.

"Y-Yeah..."

He rufffled my hair and wiped my tears.

"Let's not worry about that, I'm sure you'll find someone good for you."

I think I already have...
