I tried so hard to ignore seeing Dohwa for a few days but it was inevitable..I got invited to a party and my 'friends' were all going, I couldn't just let it be- For sure I'd see Dohwa there..


I don't even know who's house is this I went into but it was the address they sent on the groupchat so I assume I'm in the right place..


There were already a lot of people when I got inside. It's a bit loud with all the music and chattering around the area. There's also alcohol. For highschoolers, these kids are quite bold..


I sighed out as I found myself a seat, sitting by the corner where no one pays attention to. I roamed my eyes around to look for faces I knew but I really couldn't tell with the bad lighting in the room.


One person did stick out though.


Baek Dohwa.


He's just wearing a sweatshirt and some denim pants but he seems to be the spot light of the night. Even from the distance, I can see him clearly. His hair was glowing with how the lights trickled upon the strands of his blonde hair. Even his face looks like it's glowing..is this the face of someone the heavens adore?


I felt my stomach tingle inside as our eyes met. I wasn't sure how long he caught me staring at him but I'm sure he saw me- He's even making his way over here-

Wait what?! He's coming over here??


I got up from my seat but before I could run off, a hand held my wrist tightly-

"Do-"


"Hey, care for a drink?" The guy before me said as he smiled at me. It's not Dohwa..


"No..please excuse me I have to go-" I was yanking my hand away but he just held it tighter, it hurts.


"Oh come on, just one dri-"


"Seems like someone doesn't know the meaning of the word 'no' " Dohwa appeared in front of me, pulling my hand away from the dude, his back towering over my frame.



Why are you doing this? You've been acting weird Dohwa..I might think you like me instead of Su-ae..this is not good..



"Dohwa? Dude, you already have plenty of girls can't you just give me this one-"


"What did you say?" I felt how cold Dohwa's tone was, it was as if he was dragging his words out of his mouth. This is dangerous, he might end up fighting someone at this point-


I noticed how lingering eyes turned over to us, a crowd is forming. I have to pull Dohwa out of this mess!


I watched how he clenched his fists and I immediately held his hand, pulling him over to me. "Dohwa we have to go, this doesn't look good" I whispered and I saw his eyes glance over at me before he looked back at the guy.


He didn't say anything and took my hand that was holding him, walking outside and making our way out of the party. "Dohwa you could've caused a scene and rumors about you might spread-"


"Is that really the first thing you'll say to me as soon as we got out of there? That guy was harassing you Iseah" Dohwa said, his back turned against me. I couldn't see his face..


"Yes I kno-" I tried to answer but he cut me off.


"You know? And you let it happen? Iseah..you're a girl and that's a guy! You were ignoring me but you weren't ignoring that guy!" Why is he raising his voice at me? 


"I don't understand what you're trying to say Do-" I was cut off yet again.



"Dohwa..?"


Both our heads turned over to the voice who called out, it was Su-ae. It looks like she just got out of a cab and was about to head over to the party..I didn't expect I'd see her here.


"Oh you're with Iseah, did I interrupt something?" She asked, awkwardly scratching the side of her neck as she looked at Dohwa then at me.


"No no we were just talking. Are you gonna head inside?" Dohwa immediately answered and went closer to her.


"Yeah I was worrying I have no one to go with, so I'm happy to see you two here!" Oh not with Eunhyeok huh.


I watched them as they began to make their way inside, Dohwa glanced behind, our eyes meeting. He mouthed, 'Come, follow us'


Do I really have to? My gut tells me not to..


Dohwa looked like he was going to drag me inside if I didn't follow them though..I sighed and just followed along even though I felt like I'd regret it.


And once again, my ears were filled with loud music and chattering. The party didn't die out at all and continued as if nothing happened earlier. 


I sat by a couch as Dohwa and Su-ae excused themselves to retrieve some food for us. He sure is acting like nothing happened earlier.

It's pissing me off- 

It's pissing me off? 

What's pissing me off..

Why-


"Iseah! Look at what we got" I turned my attention over at Su-ae as she called out to me. She and Dohwa were carrying some food, setting it down at the coffee table in front.


I showed her a smile as I looked down at the food, I didn't feel like eating though.


"You two go ahead, I'm still quite full" I excused and smiled wider at her as the both sat down on the couch with me.


It didn't take long before they chattered as if I wasn't there. Their laughter seemed to echo in my head as I closed my eyes. Well atleast they're having fun.



I don't know why but..I want to go home already..

There's something that's bothering me and I don't know what it is.


It's making me anxious.
