CHAPTER 23

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃


"Here, you can wear these," you say as you hand Chan some oversized joggers from yourself and a hoodie. Chan thanks you with a slight bow as he takes the clothes from your hands. "I think you'll fit them, they're pretty big on me."

He chuckles. "I think it'll be fine."

You nod at his words. "You can take a shower too if you want to?" you offer, then pointing at the door out of your bedroom. "I think Robin and Minjoo won't be home for a while anyway, maybe Robin will stay with Minho."

He shakes his head. "No, it's fine. I'll just wear these and dry myself. Do you have a towel? To dry my hair and body?"

You nod and lead him to the bathroom. You tell him you'll be in your room waiting for him, then you leave him there. You walk back to your room and grab some clothes as well, also taking off your Padmé costume and drying yourself with the towel that was still in your room from your shower this morning. You put on some grey sweatpants and a dark blue oversized crewneck and plop down on your bed.

You look up at the ceiling and sigh. You can't believe Chris is in your dorm. A few hours ago he was the guy that you hated the most in the entire universe, and now you want nothing more than to kiss him over and over again for the rest of the night. What the hell has changed?

You don't think anything changed. You probably never realised it, but you have always liked him. You were just scared and turned it into hatred.

In reality, you wanted nothing more but to spend time with him. The days he was tutoring you in English were actually the days you were looking towards the most. You always said you weren't and that you hated spending time with him, but you were lying to everyone and most importantly, you were lying to yourself. Because you did want to spend time with him. Even back then, you wanted nothing more than to grab his cheeks and pull him towards you for a kiss and make out on his bed for hours. But of course you never did that, because you didn't even know that you wanted it. Now you do.

Funny enough, you were the only one that didn't realise that you were into him. Everyone else already knew how much you wanted Chan, and everyone else also knew how much he wanted you. Every single one of your and his friends knew it, but the two of you.

How were you two so blind?

You're lost in thought for the majority of the time, until Chan comes back. He hangs his clothes on the drying rack, next to your costume. He moves his head to look at you and smiles when he sees you laying on your bed.

You're stunning, he's always thought that you were. Your beautiful light blue to grey hair, being faded from the dye that you used. He overheard you saying that you wanted to dye it blue again. The blue hair matches your bright blue eyes, the one you got from your Dutch mother. You don't have many Dutch features, but the blue eyes is one that you have, and your eyes stand out a lot. Chan loves them, he can't get enough of staring into them. And then the rest of your beautiful face, your cute nose and those full lips... The lips he wants to kiss so badly over and over again. He has been wanting to kiss you for almost a year, and today it finally happened.

Too bad the first time was just to get back to Soobin, though. You also lied a lot tonight, saying you didn't want to be with him nor wanted to kiss someone like him.

Chan chuckles to himself. He should consider himself lucky that maybe you actually want to be around him now. Maybe not with him... But at least he can actually be your friend.

You lift your head to see what he's doing when you hear his chuckle. When you notice that he was just staring at you, you feel your cheeks heating up. You sit up and move to the edge of your bed. "Why are you staring at me?"
