[08: YOUR EYES WILL GET STUCK : TRUTH]

Cheonsa walked out of the bathroom and screamed when she saw Sunghoon. "I need to end a contract." He said. "Let's do it." Cheonsa said, holding out her hand. Sunghoon grabbed her hand and pulled her into a hug. "I thought you had to make a deal-" "I lied." Sunghoon said. "Why are we hugging?" Cheonsa asked.

"Because I wanted to hug you." Sunghoon replied. "Why?" Cheonsa asked. "Because I like you." Sunghoon said. "Why... what?" Cheonsa asked, completely shocked. "I like you. At least I think. So a hug feels nice." Sunghoon replied.

Cheonsa just stared at him with wide eyes, "I..." "Sunghoon-ah!" Yunjin yelled, walking through the door. Sunghoon pulled away, "What's the matter?" "My rehearsal is starting." Yunjin replied. Sunghoon looked at Cheonsa. She smiled and waved her hand, "You can go. I'll head home." "You can... come with me." Sunghoon said, scratching the back of his neck. "I don't think Yunjin would like that." Cheonsa whispered, grabbing her purse.

"You can come." Yunjin smiled, looking her up and down. "See, she doesn't mind." Sunghoon said. Cheonsa nodded and hesitantly followed.

"Cheonsa," Sunghoon whispered. "Yeah?" Cheonsa whispered back, looking at him. "What I said earlier didn't make you uncomfortable, did it?" Sunghoon asked. "No," Cheonsa said honestly, "I'm flattered actually. I would like you back but..." Sunghoon looked at her, "But?" "You're obnoxious." Cheonsa teased. "Ya, whats the real reason?" Sunghoon asked.

Cheonsa looked at him and sighed. 'I have a fear of abandonment.' She thought. "You okay?" Sunghoon asked. "That is the reason." Cheonsa said, smiling. Sunghoon rolled his eyes and Cheonsa pat his arm. "If you keep doing that your eyes will get stuck." She said. "Nuh uh." Sunghoon scoffed. "Yeah huh." Cheonsa teased. Yunjin watched them, trying to read their lips, but she failed miserably.

Yunjin started to glide across the rink and Cheonsa watched in awe. Sunghoon watched as well but instead of awe, it was annoyance. 'She drags me here everyday against my will." Sunghoon thought.

"She's good." Cheonsa whispered. Sunghoon nodded in agreement. "What made you start ice skating?" Sunghoon asked suddenly. "My parents used too." Cheonsa replied. "Do they still skate?" Sunghoon asked. "I don't know." Cheonsa replied. "What do you-" "How was that?" Yunjin asked, walking up the steps and sitting next to Sunghoon.

"It was good, same as every other performance." Sunghoon replied. "I think it was beautiful." Cheonsa added. "Did I ask you?" Yunjin asked. "I just wanted to give my input." Cheonsa said softly. "Sunghoon-ah, come skate with me." Yunjin whined. "I'm tired." Sunghoon replied, "Come on Cheonsa let's make a deal so I can "charge up"." Cheonsa nodded and followed him out.

Cheonsa walked down the sidewalk with her arms folded and looked down. "What's wrong? I know you don't like me making deals and stuff but-" "It's not that. The person you just made a deal with was a scumbag after all." Cheonsa said. "Then what's wrong?" Sunghoon asked.

Cheonsa sighed and looked at him. "When you get your powers back... will everything go back to normal?" She asked. "Yeah pretty much." Sunghoon shrugged. "Meaning we'll both go back to our old lives without each other?" Cheonsa asked. "I didn't mean it like that." Sunghoon assured, "I can go back to making deals without having to wait for you and you can go back to doing what you do."

"But we can still hang out of course. I like you." Sunghoon smiled, nudging her shoulder. Cheonsa smiled slightly and nodded. "Is that's what's bothering you? You think I'll just forget about you?" Sunghoon asked. "I mean you wouldn't need me around." Cheonsa said. Sunghoon walked backwards to see her, "I would."
