I LIED FOR YOU - Na Jaemin

Chapter four

Seoyeon POV

I was at work, not really wanting to be there. The only reason was because I was afraid of Jaemin showing up.

Diya came over to see me picking at my fingers. "You okay?" She asked.

"Yeah I'm fine, I just don't want to see Jaemin." She sighed.

"You know, you're never gonna get a guy if you don't listen to him." I rolled my eyes.

"I did listen to him! But all he did was lie to me, how can I trust him?!" I asked.

"If he comes, don't ignore him, okay?"

"No promises!" I say with a slight smile. She smiled playfully as she grabbed the dirty rags on the counter and went back to the storage room.

Time passed by and it was already 9 o'clock. And still no sight of Jaemin! (Thankfully)

I was getting more hope about going through the day without seeing him until I saw a car stop by and two men got out.

I closed my eyes and crossed my fingers. Please don't be Jaemin, please don't be Jaemin.. I repeated over and over in my mind.

"Seoyeon?" They spoke, it was him. I opened my eyes to see him staring at me, with another person beside him.

"I don't serve liars." I crossed my arms on my chest, he was holding in his smile but it kept creeping up on his face.

"It wasn't supposed to be funny." I glared at him.

"I'm sorry, but I'm also sorry for what happened. I really didn't want it to end this way."

"Well you obviously did because you lied straight to my face." I was upset.

"Listen, Seoyeon, do you know how some people react when they find out someone's an idol? They turn into a fucking saesang, I wanted to keep it on the lowkey so that you wouldn't find out in public." He was whispering to me so that the customers in the cafe couldn't hear.

"What do you want?" I ask referring to his order, not paying attention to anything he had just said.

His friend looked at him in disappointment. His friend was the same guy I saw on the TV yesterday.

He sighed, "2 Americanos and a talk with you." I looked up at him, it was hard to say no to him.

"Fine, but you have to make it quick." I clicked in the order and started making it.

Once I handed them their drinks, Jaemin went around the counter and pushed me into the storage room.

"Hey! You can't be back here!" I complained but he paid no attention to it.

"Seoyeon, I'm really really really sorry. I realized that lying to you was obviously not a good thing and I would take it back if I could. I was afraid of people hearing my name and connecting the dots.. it's hard being an idol. I hope you can forgive me at some point and we can start over." He was desperate to talk to me again, even though we've only known each other for a few days.

I hesitated, "please give me a few days.." I say.

"Take your time." He walked out of the storage room while I stood there thinking about what I would do with him.

"Was that Jaemin?" Diya came out of nowhere. I jumped when I heard her then nodded to her question.

"What are you thinking about doing?" She asked another question.

"I think I'm gonna let him go."

"LET HIM GO?!" Diya yelled immediately. "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!"

"No?.." I say slowly.

"Come on Seoyeon~ you can do better than that!" I stared blankly at her. "Like actually give him a chance?" She rephrased it.

"I did!" I exclaimed but she crossed her arms in disappointment.

"Another chance?" She raises an eyebrow.

"I'll think about it." She shook her head as she walked away.

Jaemin POV

Me and all the dreamies sat in the living room. They were all talking while I was just spaced out, and Jeno obviously noticed.

"Hey, you okay?" He nudged me which made me look at him.

"Yeah I'm fine." I scratch the back of my head.

He patted my back, "you'll be alright."

All the guys had gone to bed but I decided to drink for an hour or two. I heard walking and making contact with Jeno.

"Why are you drinking?" He asked as he sat on the couch across from me.

"For Seoyeon." I simply say before I take another shot.

"You don't even like alcohol," he sighed.

"I like her though."

Jeno rubbed his face. "Jaemin, this is getting out of hand. Ask her out at this point."

That was a good idea. I immediately got up and stumbled into my room, Jeno had to help me so I didn't crash into something.

I crashed onto a chair in the corner of our room and dialed Seoyeon for a FaceTime.

"Jaemin! It's 2 in the fucking morning!" He exclaimed. Was that stopping me? No.

She eventually answered. "Oh you answered!" I say, surprised."

She rubbed her eyes, "it's 2 AM..." She spoke in a tired tone.

"I didn't expect you to accept my call." I practically repeated what I had just said.

"What do you want?" She asked sternly.

"Well, I wanted to ask... if you wanted to go to the movies tonight." I ask.

She was silent for a good minute, almost like comprehending what I had just asked. "You called me to ask me out?!" She exclaimed.

"You're so noisy.." I complained.

"Why do you sound?... Jaemin, are you drunk?!" She questioned.

"No! I'm fine!" I exaggerated the 'fine.'

"Yeah, goodnight-"

"Hey! Tell me your answer right now!" I forcefully asked.

"I'll tell you once you sober up." She spoke.

"Look, I'm only a little tipsy!" I held up my thumb and pointed finger to show a small space.

I watched her eyes look to the left then she sighed. "Fine, I'll go.."

"Perfect! I'll pick you up at 8!" I exclaimed. "Goodnight Seoyeon." I say.

I watched her inhale slowly then exhale. "Goodnight Jaemin.." She ended the call right away.

I smiled as my eyes shifted to Jeno laying in his bed, watching me. "Did you hear that?" I smirked.

"Good for you man, go to bed though so you're not hungover on your date."

As I got up the door swung open and Chenle stood in the doorway. "Whose going on a date?" He asked.

Me and Jeno looked at each other in shock.
