Lovely Boxer- LeeKnow

14: Love is so not real.

︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶

Jeongin POV:

By the time the two came back, we fixed the living room, which was now turned into a cozy lounge. It helped that one of the couches was a pull-out bed, and we brought out the blankets, 4 to be exact. As for snacks, we used the rice crispies that Hana told me were from Minho.

When we switched on the TV, Hana handed me the remote, and I gave her a funny look, but she shoved the remote towards me again.

"What happened to 'Tune in for love'? Don't want to watch it anymore?"
I asked as she settled under the blankets at the corner on my left side.

"I changed my mind; I want to watch what everyone wants to-"

"We were joking, of course we'd watch it again with you."

"But it's boring too, you know"

"Hana, that's a lie. We know, better than anyone how much you love that angsty movie."

"Okay but still, I want to watch something else"

"You'll watch whatever I watch?"

"Sure, I would"

I dint say anything and just put on Tune in for Love. We never got bored of it even though it was concerningly watched repeatedly.

If it meant we were all watching something that was close to our heart, we should, shouldn't we?

Of course, the reason why it was so close to our heart could be different, for me and Seungmin it was how we instantly relaxed once that movie started, how Hana would make the same funny remarks at same scenes, and we'd laugh again.

Earlier, we used to hang out all the time, all though all the time wasn't a lot because considering that she was still living with her parents, that couldn't happen. Sleepovers weren't often either, only rarely when her parents would be out on a business trip or something alike. We'd hang out at mine or Seungmin's house, and rarely at Hana's because her parents would be home.
Once when we were at her place, we had to switch off the TV, take our books out all in record time and pretend we were studying, but it turned out to be just one of the maids coming in. When we asked her why she made us do that, she said her dad would scold her for wasting her time instead of studying.

It was like that when were still in school. It was the same after college.
Her parents were just as strict.

Reason why we always give in to what she wants most of the time is that she's always buried in work, and we understand how much she needs this small escape. Sure, we're busy too, she knows that, and we know she cares because she'd apologize like a million times with a genuinely sad face when she realized we went out of our way, out of our schedules to do something together. But it meant so much to us, to her, to spend time together.

And of course, this wasn't just an 'us' thing, she would often do it too. She'd show up at the company, well only till the reception because they wouldn't let her in, with bags of food and drinks. Sometimes homemade, but usually take-out.
But we appreciated it, nonetheless.

"Hey, I told you to watch what you wanted!"
She said looking up from her phone when the intro on the TV played.

"Yes, and this is exactly what I want to watch."
I looked at her as I made a cheeky remark.
