"What are you talking about Jae? Of course I like you!"

"Not the way I want you to." My shoulders slouched and I could feel my throat tighten.

"What-"

"I love you Jun. I'm in love with you and I have been since the day I first saw you. I've been afraid to tell you because... Well look at you! You're perfect and I'm... Well look at me. I'm terrible at being a human being. With you i feel like I can't do anything right. And.... It's obvious you love him.. And not me." Tears started falling down my cheeks and I looked at her.

"J-Jae" she stuttered. "I-" I could see the tears well in her eyes. She cupped my cheeks which stunned me for a second. "I don't have feelings for Daehyun. Not like your implying."

"Y-you don't?" My lips trembled as I waited for her to speak.

"I must be b-blind," the first tear fell from her eyes and my hand immediately raised to wipe it away. "And I guess you are too. Because the moment you said hello," her breath shook as she continued, "I thought 'wow he must be an angel' and from then on the more I knew you the more I loved you. A-and I was too afraid to say anything. I was afraid you'd hate me if you didn't feel the same."

"You're the one person I could never hate," I leaned in my eyes slowly closing.

I could feel her shaky breath against my lip and then she pushed forward closing the nearly non-existent gap. My heart pounded in my ears and in the distance was the gong of a clock striking midnight. I didn't so much care for it. I was enjoying the feel of her lips pressed firmly to mine and her arms wrapping around my neck.

She loved me and I loved her.

After all of the attention on her

How could I not have noticed?

I guess that human saying "love is blind" is certainly a true one.
