She spins around and stares at the demon, wide eyed. "I'm what?!" She tilts her head, waiting for him to answer, her praying that she heard him wrong.
Haechan only smirks, finding her reaction cute. "I said you're hot" He walks closer to her and she moves back, her legs hiting the bed and she falls onto it. Haechan walks closer, hovering over her. "W-what are you d-doing?" He hums at her, not answering her question.
"H-Haechan" "Yeah?" He raised his eyebrow, questioning the girl. Aira sighs shakily, not saying anything else which causes Haechan to smirk more. "Oh? Baby, not talking anymore? Cat got your tongue?" He lifts his hand, running it through the girls hair.
Aira looks at him and sighs, questioning his actions. "You're adorable you know that?" Her eyes widen again, not expecting him to say that to her. Haechan chuckles softly at her reaction.
Haechan takes a deep breath and steels himself, mustering up the courage to speak. "Aira, there's something I need to tell you," he begins, his voice quivering slightly. He can feel his heart racing as he shifting his eyes around the room, suddenly feeling nervous and vulnerable. "I...um...I-" he starts, but the words get caught in his throat.
He groans, feeling frustrated with himself for struggling to articulate what he's feeling. "Dammit, why can't I just say it?" he mutters to himself, running his hand through his hair in agitation.
With a sigh of resignation, Haechan finally manages to get the words out. He looks straight into Aira's eyes, his gaze filled with a mix of vulnerability and determination.
"Aira," he says again, his voice soft and laced with emotion. "I like you. I really, really like you."
"You what?" Aira stares at him, wide eyed, questioning her hearing. Haechan sighs in frustration, knowing that he's going to have to repeat himself again. He takes a deep breath and looks at Aira, her eyes wide and questioning. "I like you, Aira." He says firmly this time.
don't think I quite heard you correctly." Haechan rolls his eyes, exasperated. "For fucks sake, Aira! I like you." Aira finally relents, her smile growing wider. "I heard you the first time, Haechan."
"Haechan, I think I like you too" Aira states, still unsure about her true feelings. Haechan's eyes gleam in surprise as Aira admits her feelings for him. But as she continues to speak, he can't help but respond in a slightly disapproving tone.
"Really?" He questions, not meaning to come off as judgy. Aira lets out a frustrated sigh, clearly irritated by his reaction. "Damn, okay. I forget you're a demon sometimes," she mutters, annoyed by his quick judgement.
Haechan felt a pang of guilt as he realised how his question came off. He quickly tried to backtrack, attempting to sound as sincere as possible. "No, I didn't mean it like that, I swear. I'm just surprised that you like me!"
Aira's response was far from reassuring, leaving Haechan feeling even more desperate to fix his mistake. "Okay," she states dryly.
He could tell that she was annoyed, and desperately tried to think of what to say next. "Byeol, do you uh, do you want to be my girlfriend?" he finally asks, feeling shy for the first time.
He cringed as he waited for her response, knowing how awkward and dry his question had sounded. To his surprise, Byeol started laughing, her eyes crinkling as she smiled. "You've never asked anyone out before, have you?" she asked gently, clearly amused by his attempt.
"Just answer the question," Haechan groaned, growing impatient. Aira rolls her eyes, but gives in. "Fine. Yes. Happy now?"
Haechan dramatically gasps, feigning shock at her answer. "What happened to the innocent baby Byeol?" he teases, a wide grin spreading across his face. He leans down and presses a gentle kiss to her forehead, knowing full well that she wouldn't appreciate it if he kissed her lips just yet.
"Haechan?" The said boy looks at her questionably. "Who was that man?" Haechan groans and moves himself off her, sitting next to her instead. "No one important" He says in a monotonous voice. Aira sighs and walks over to the door.
Haechan frowns as he watches Aira stand up and head for the door, confusion evident on his face. "Byeol, where are you going?" Aira doesn't even look back as she responds with a single word. "Cat"
Before Haechan can say anything, she opens the door and walks out, leaving him sitting alone on the bed, feeling bewildered and a little bit concerned.
Haechan groans as he watches Aira walk out the door, leaving him sitting alone on the bed. He couldn't help but wonder what she had meant by 'cat'. It seemed like such a random answer, and the cat was in the bedroom anyway.
He sat there for a few moments, lost in thought, when suddenly a realization struck him. "Wait a minute..." He got up from the bed and headed towards the door, a sense of urgency suddenly filling him.
Haechan's mind raced as he quickly made his way towards the door, a feeling of unease growing within him. He couldn't shake the sensation that something was wrong.
He flung the door open and stepped outside, his eyes immediately scanning his surroundings for any sign of Aira.
