'Tae, do you like someone ?'
Do I ?
Do I like her ?
Taehyung thought of how much he cared for her. He thought of how he nearly lost his mind when he thought Hana was mad at him, when she refused to talk to him. How much he wanted to protect her. How his heart dropped when he saw her scars, virtual and physical scars.
His thoughts went to all those times they spent together. He admitted, he was a reserved person. He had never get as close with anyone else as he was with Hana, especially in just a couple of months. He had walls so secured around him but it went crumbling down with just her existence.
He thought about her laughter, how euphoric it made him feel when he was the reason behind it. He thought about how strong she was and those clever mind of hers.
He remembered her eyes. Those warm brown orbs, how sunlight makes it gold. How he would drop everything and anything for her smile.
He went against his rule for her. He broke his promises with himself for her. He crossed lines for her.
Taehyung realised that he would do so much more for this girl.
'Yes.' He said confidently. 'Yes, I do.'
Everyone gasped, they have seen how closed Taehyung was with Hana but they would never thought he'd admit it to himself since they all know how he never like attachments with people.
But a particular person saw it a different way. Hana's mind went numb. She can't believe what she just heard. When Sehun had asked Taehyung if he liked someone, Hana had thought it was a joke. Hana had thought he would laughed it off and said no.
She didn't think he'd paused, pondering the questions as if they were other answer options other than 'no'. Turn out there was.
He likes someone ?
Hana didn't know why she felt a twisted, sick feeling in her stomach. She didn't know why she was so sad and troubled by his answer.
Who is it ?
Hana thought of all the possible girls Taehyung could have feelings for but no one came to mind. She wondered if he had liked this girl even before he knew Hana so maybe she didn't know about the girl. Maybe they were childhood friends. Or a girl he met at the hospital. Or maybe they went to school together.
Hana glanced at Taehyung. She noticed Soora whispering something to him and he laughed before smiling at her.
Oh.
It can't be.
Hana wondered why haven't she noticed it. She was his closest friends. He even said she was his favourite girl. How could he not tell her ?
He nudged Taehyung's shoulder, 'How could you not tell me ! Who is she ? I thought we're best friends ?'
Taehyung looked at Hana and smiled.
It's you, dummy.
'Who is this lucky girl ?' Sehun asked. Everyone looked confused since it was pretty obvious who it was but then they saw what the situation was, everyone hid their smiles. Soojung rolled her eyes.
How can two clueless people fall in love with each other ?
Taehyung smirked, 'One question per round.'
Minho threw crackers at him. Apparently, crackers were weapon instead of food that night. 'Just say it, idiot or I will.'
Taehyung threw back some of the crackers at him, 'Don't you dare !'
