Serenade || Myung Jaehyun

"... yes."

It's currently three days after the incident, Mei-rin and Sunoo were sitting outside of campus on a bench, Sunoo half asleep while Mei-rin was acting like she had five hundred cups of coffee.

"And then- and then he just walked out of my room like nothing happened-"
Mei rambled on as she looked at Sunoo from the tree they were sitting opposite to.

"Hey hey calm down.. I get it, you like him and he likes you back.. you've been saying the same story for three days now..."
Sunoo said as he ran a hand through his hair, rolling his eyes at his excited the girl was to talk about a certain someone.

"He is like a walking, talking, breathing, living green flag, Kim Sunoo. What do I do???"
She asked as she took hold of the boy's shoulder and shook him back and forth, not expecting anyone to hear even though she was being loud as hell... That is, until she felt a gush of hot air right behind her neck.

"Maybe say yes to me instead of ranting to Sunoo?"
Jaehyun asked, refusing to stand up straight even after the girl had slowly turned around to face him with the most subtle shocked yet awkward expression.

"Wow I'm third-wheeling before they even start dating..."
Sunoo mumbled before getting up and walking away, rolling his eyes for the nth time that day because of his best friend.

"So, Park Mei-rin? It's been three days and you've been taking your time thinking about it.. talking to yourself and screaming into your pillow as if I can't see anything from my window with you always having your curtains open.. Are you done yet? Hold on- don't say no."
The boy spoke as he slid into the seat next to her, one arm sliding behind her shoulder and the other resting on the armrest of the bench, trembling ever so slightly but thankfully going unnoticed by the older... Though it would've bone unnoticed nonetheless because of how flustered she was getting by being called out.

"Wait was I too casual? Should I ask you out again properly? With a bouquet and everything? Do you want it like a cliché in front of the whole school or something else? What do you want our first date to be? In the cafe you like or should I drive us to the beach? Or maybe a drive-in theatre? Just say it Rinnie and I'll make it perfect."
The boy went on as the girl stayed frozen, don't nothing but just stare at him with her lips parted in surprise at how fast he was speaking.

"Wait yeah... You know what-"
Jaehyun started, getting up and patting the now black haired girl's shoulders and stepping back.

"Stay right here, don't go anywhere else. I swear, I'll be here before you know it."
He added before turning around and running off, not giving the other time to think of even register the fact that he had run off somewhere.

Mei-rin sat there, looking around as the second passed, making her heart hammer out of her chest with how the boy had her on the edge of her seat so easily without realising. She looked down, staring at her platform shoes that she got just to look taller around her friends.

"Park Mei-rin."
A voice that was all too familiar called out, making the said girl look up with an excited glint in her eyes.

"I.. really really like you... So much that I wrote five songs about you and helped you around whenever Yeonjun hyung got drunk.. so much that.. whenever I close my eyes and try to focus, all my thoughts get blurry and I can only think about you... You with that stupidly pretty smile and your eyes... Come to think of it,.. You have me wrapped around your finger and... And I love it... I love liking you... And... I'll love loving you.... If you say yes..."
He spoke, coming to a halt when he was standing right in front of her, looking down at what he had in his hands.

"Will you... go out with me?"
Jaehyun asked, holding out a bouquet of pink and white hydrangeas, stepping closer to the girl until he was about a feet away from her, watching as she stood up from her spot on the bench as well.

"... God how can I reject that?"
Mei mumbled in a fake frustrated tone as she let herself be dropped onto his chest, him already wrapping his hands around her.

"Right? How can anyone resist me?.. anyways... yes or no?"
Jaehyun chuckled as he pulled away from the older, handing the bouquet of flowers to her. The girl looked down at them, unable to hold back a smile from forming on her face as she let out a quiet chuckle.

"... yes."

"And just between you and me, I forgot half the things that I had planned to tell you after I saw you."
Jaehyun added, wrapping his arms around the girl once again and burying his face in the crook of her neck, taking in the subtle scent of hers while pulling her as close as he could to him.
The two stayed like that for a while, taking the peace and quiet, letting their thoughts run around and only be filled with the other person.

"Do you remember it now?"
She asked quietly after a few minutes, breaking the silence as she played with the fabric of his jacket, her other hand holding the bouquet of purity and thoughtfulness between them.

"Hmm... Not yet, noona."
He whispered back quietly, closing his eyes and letting the side of his head drop on her shoulder, the corners of his lips twitching up into a smile, knowing what he had just done.

"Noona-? Myung Jaehyun, don't call me that, I swear-"
She started, pulling away from the hug and looking up at jaehyun, ready to throw hands. But before the girl could even continue, she felt his hands wrap around her waist and engulf her back into another warm and fuzzy hug.

"Shut up, don't ruin it."
He said unto her ears, this time resting his chin on her head and taking her hands and wrapping them around his waist, wrapping his own hands around her afterward.

"Anyways-"
He started again, getting cut off by the other.

"Shut up, don't ruin it."
She said in a mocking time as soon as he started speaking, not expecting him to start chuckling when she expected a pouty expression.

"Just hear me out, yeah? I just wanted to tell you that..."
He started, paint the older's back.

"... That those platforms aren't helping you."
He said with a held-back chuckle, pulling away from the hug and stepping back from Mei.

"Hey, I'm taller than of average height!"
She protested as she took a step closer, one hundred and seventy one centimetres of height reducing to only five in the eyes of jaehyun who was staring at her with star eyes.
