Perfect Time | Seventeen Joshua Fanfiction

Y/N's PoV:

Not gonna lie... Being with him often, I realised that he is so handsome, like he is just perfectly handsome, his flawless skin, his small pink lips, cute smile, his eye bags that makes his smile even more cute,his smooth black hair, his straight nose, literally everything. I know that I am here only to assist him in his work, but it is... may be due to my so called HORMONES...

But unlike other days, he is very upset today. He is zoning out often instead of concentrating on his work. He is into some other thoughts but trying hard not to show it.

"Is everything going the way you expected?"

"Uhm..? Yeah. Why do you ask?"

"You seem quite upset"

"No. I'm not upset."

He pulled out a fake smile.

"Okay. But just tell me if something is not okay."

He nodded. I can't force him to tell me everything. We are not that close yet. I completed my side of the work and left the place.

[...]

He is being the same for the last three days and everytime I asked him about it, he just said he is alright and nothing is wrong. It would have not bothered me this much if it didn't affect our work. But it did. He is repeatedly making errors because of his distracted mind.

He will be in the lab after the classes and I will make him answer my questions, no matter what he can't avoid my questions one more time. I won't allow it.

[...]

I reached the lab and he is not here but his belongings are on the table. He might have gone somewhere. I decided to wait for him there.

**SMASH**

It was a glass breaking sound and I looked towards the direction it came from. It was from the apparatus storage room. It might be an intruder. I walked silently towards that room being very conscious not to make a sound. But as I got close to it, I could hear some other weird sounds.

I peeked into the room. There a girl is sitting on the table with a boy standing in front of her and they are kissing and making out. They are wholly in their romance world that they didn't notice my presence. And that boy is none other than Joshua. OMG!

I quickly started running from there to find Chan, who is waiting for me downstairs. They would have heard me but I don't care. I have seen something I shouldn't have. It's so embarassing.

[...]

"Hey I have completed the work you gave me"

I have decided to act like I know nothing.

"When did you go home yesterday?"

"Is this even a question? After the classes only"

"Tsk I know that. Did you come to the lab after classes?"

Ohh fuck. How to handle this now? How will he react if I say yes?

"No. Why should I come here? Did you ask me to come? I couldn't recall something like that."

I spoke in total nervousness. I know, I don't have to get nervous. But I couldn't help it.

"No no. I didn't call you. Just asked. Nevermind. You can go now."

"Uhmm... well... I have something to tell you. But don't get angry please."

"Come on just tell me. I'm in a good mood today. I won't get angry.", he said with one of his sweetest smiles.

"The thing is... I came to the lab yesterday."

His smile faded away within a second.

"What? Are you serious? Ohh GODDD!"

"Yes and I'm sorry. I just came to ask why you were dull and upset these days. I'm really sorry."

"Wait... Did you see something? I mean did you see us kissing?"

"No. I didn't see any kiss. Wait, did you kiss her?"

He let out a huge breath and with that his smile came back.

"Nevermind. Just forget the last one."

He is much relaxed now as he believes that I didn't see their dirty deeds.

"Thank god", he mumbled but it is loud enough for me to hear.

"But I saw you two literally eating each other. Were you starving for days?", I couldn't control my laughter anymore.

"WHAATTT?? I'm going. Bye.", he tried to leave the place but I pulled him by his wrist making him sit again.

"Wait it's not a big deal"

"It IS a big deal FOR ME. You didn't tell anyone else, did you?"

"Only Chan knows. No one else."

"My god! Why did you tell him? Is this even a thing to discuss?"

"He was waiting for me yesterday. When I went back, he asked me why I was running like that and I just told him. Don't your friends know about your relationship?"

"They know. But this is embarassing, you know?"

"Then you shouldn't have done that in school.", I smirked trying to tease him.

"Please let's not talk about this. I wish I could hide somewhere and never come out. God this is damn embarassing."

"Whatever, I'm going to have lunch. Wanna join me?"

"Yeah sure. But I have to tidy up everything. You can go. I will be there in ten minutes."

"I can wait. It's already an hour past lunch time. Let me help you."

"Thank you"

[...]

We had lunch together - only the two of us. Others have already had lunch and went to their classes. After lunch we went to our respective classes and the day ended just like usual.
