Best Friends? | BaekYeon

06

"That noodle was good."said Taeyeon,rubbing her tummy.Sehun smiled in reply.They just came out from a chinese restaurant which is famous in Hongdae.

"So,where should we go next?"asked Taeyeon.

"Let's walk through this long street."suggested Sehun,pointing at the long street in front of him.A lot of people were also strolling the street,so it was really crowded.

"Ouch."said Taeyeon when she got pushed by a girl.But they can't blame her,it was just too crowded.Sehun wrapped his right arm around Taeyeon's shoulders protectively.

Taeyeon smiled and they continued walking forward side by side.

Taeyeon suddenly spotted a familiar figure in the crowd.

"Baekhyun!!"she shouted,Baekhyun turned his head towards the voice when he heard his name.

"Taeng!!"he shouted back walking towards her way.Taeyeon smiled at him and waved happily at him.

But she frowned when he saw his hand pulling someone with him.

"Oh.Hi,Soojung-ssi."Taeyeon greeted awkwardly.

"Hi."she greeted back.

"So Baek,you guys are on a date?"asked Taeyeon.

"Yeah.Me and Soojung were strolling around Hongdae.You two too?"

"Yes."replied Taeyeon.Baekhyun stared at Sehun's arm which was still around Taeyeon.Sehun realized his stare so he dropped his arm.

Taeyeon stared at Baekhyun's hand which was still holding Soojung's.Baekhyun let it go and looked away awkwardly.

They were like cheating on each other and was caught in the act.Except these two are not together.

"Erm...hey,why don't we four do a double date?"suggested Soojung,breaking the ice.

"Yes.Why not,that is a great idea."agreed Taeyeon.

The four settle down at a coffee shop nearby.Sehun and Taeyeon sitting together and Baekhyun and Soojung sitting opposite them.

Taeyeon wrapped her fingers around the mug nervously,wondering how to let their conversation flow.Baekhyun played with his fingers and was wondering how to start their conversation.Sehun and Soojung were just staring at their own partners nervously.

"So..."started Baekhyun.Taeyeon looked up.

"You two seems to get along quite well recently."said Baekhyun.

"Oh.Really."replied Taeyeon.Because you were spending a lot of time with Soojung recently.

"Are you two already together?"asked Baekhyun.Taeyeon almost choked on her hot cocoa.She put down the mug gently and replied,"No."

"Then why are you two here?And why was his arm around your shoulders just now?"questioned Baekhyun.Taeyeon frowned and replied,"It is none of your business!You and Soojung are here too!"

"We are a couple,so that's why.Aunty will be mad if you go out with any other boy except me!Remember what aunty said?"The word 'couple' triggered Taeyeon's inner dragon.

"Of course I do!But that was three years ago!I am going to graduate this year,so I can date whoever I want!"

"I didn't say anything when you were crushing on other boys.But going out is not accepted."

"Then why can you date Soojung?"

"Because my parents didn't make a rule about my personal life and my love life."

"Oh.Now you are saying that my mum minds too much?You are no different!"shouted Taeyeon.They never had a fight that big for a very long time.And this fight made Taeyeon burned in anger and she was very furious that she ran out of the coffee shop.

Sehun chased after her.She ran as fast as she could because she wanted to be alone.She ran to a street where there was less people.She squatted down and leaned her back against the wall.She buried her face into her arms and bursted out crying.

Kim Taeyeon!You are being too sensitive!Baekhyun just asked you a simple question and you ended up fighting with him!What is wrong with you?!

Taeyeon was mad at herself.She suddenly heard footsteps nearing her.She tried to ignore it by not looking up,hoping the stranger will go away.But she felt a pair of arms suddenly around her.The scent and the warmth was familiar to her.Too familiar.

The person wrapped his arms around her and whispered to her ear,"I am sorry."

Taeyeon cried even harder,because it was never his fault.She hugged him tightly and cried in his arms.

"Baekhyun-a,mianhe.Jeongmal mianhe!"she said while crying.

Sehun and Soojung stared at them from a distance.

"So this was Baekhyun's best friend...huh."said Soojung softly.Sehun replied,"Yes.They are very good friends."

"I finally figured out something."said Soojung,after that she walked away."What does she mean?"Sehun asked himself and followed Soojung.

-

"So,we are okay now?"asked Baekhyun.The two were sitting side by side now on a train back home."Yes.Sorry that I ruined your date."replied Taeyeon.

"Nah,I have hung out with Soojung the whole day.So no biggie."said Baekhyun,smiling brightly to reassure Taeyeon.

"Are you two a couple?"asked a stranger sitting the opposite of them.

"Ani,ahjumma."Taeyeon replied."We are just best friends."said Baekhyun."Oh.Sorry.You two looked like a couple."said the ahjumma.

They always get these kind of questions from friends and strangers.

"This must be your unluckiest Valentines Day in years,right?"asked Taeyeon,feeling bad that she ruined Baekhyun and Soojung's date.

"Yes."replied Baekhyun.Taeyeon sighed.

"Because I didn't spend my Valentines Day with you."added Baekhyun.Taeyeon found her heart fluttering for Baekhyun's statement.She faked a cough to stop herself from fangirling over her best friend.
