How it Goes

Chapter 11: A match

Kai's POV-

I woke up after who knows how long we've been flying. Kyungsoo was next to me fast asleep on my shoulder. I looked around the plane and saw the couple was sitting next to us. I can't bring myself to believe they actually are together. And no body knows? I don't know. Why didn't he tell me though? In some ways I get it. I mean he's probably scared that if the word gets out he'll get hate and our managers might say something. But I wouldn't say anything! It really is complicated. I bent down to grab my phone from my back pack and accidentally elbowed him in the face. He awoke and I heard a grunt.
" Oh I'm so sorry!" I whispered.
" No no it's fine. Are you up?" He said rubbing his nose.
" Yeah I feel better now too."
" Good good."
" Hey did u get stuff from the fans yesterday?" He asked me.
" Yeah lots but I haven't looked at it yet- why?"
" I think we got like a matching letter from these two girls or something."
" What?" I said reaching down in my back pack to grab the bag of cards and notes I got yesterday.
" Ok well here's the bag so you see if you recognize something that looked similar to yours. And uh- Kyungsoo you might want to turn on the overhead light." I said.
" Oh ha right." He giggled.
" Oh your nose!" I said noticing how red it was from my elbow. " It's all red did it hurt bad?"
" Only a little. It's fine. He said looking through the bag. I think this is it."
I looked at what he was holding and read the outside of the card.
" Oh I remember them! They told me about Kaisoo. Kinda funny." I said.
" Yeah I thought it was cute. I bet there's a ton for the other members too."
" Open the card."
" You do I'll get mine." He said reaching into his backpack.
I opened it and it had a picture on the right side of me feeding Kyungsoo pepero sticks but it was cut off. I read the note:

Dear Kai,
This is my favorite picture of you and someone else too!
I hope you find the right match for this picture and for you!
You bring warmth into my heart every day. I love you so much.
~ Nia

That was really sweet. I smiled big.
" Perfect! I knew you had the other match! And look our notes are similar too." Kyungsoo said as he took
I could tell this made him happy he was smiling and blushing.
" Aww that's so cute. I said putting my hand on his shoulder. But why us?"
" I don't know maybe we look cute when we're together I don't know."
I blushed. I wonder if Baekhyun and Chanyeol are shipped together by the fans. My gaze shifted to them. They were both asleep. Baekhyun was curled up on Chanyeol' s lap. I remember liking a boy once. Back when I was a trainee. His name was Samjin. I had a couple classes with him. I barely had any friends but he was one of them. We both loved dancing and was really talented too. Sometimes after class we would go to a studio and turn on random songs for each other and we had to make up a routine on the spot. He was beautiful and I admired how confident he was as I was not so much. I thought for sure he would debut soon but then one day he didn't come to classes and I never saw him after that. It made me really depressed because he was the only real big crush I've ever had. I mean I've had crushes on a few girls before and I thought they were pretty but I wasn't as deeply attracted to them. Samjin made my heart hurt and gave me this crazy feeling I've never felt before.
In a way it sort of reminds me how Ive been feeling about Kyungsoo latley. Although it's still different. I only think of Kyungsoo as a friend. I think. I don't know. I mean he's cute but I've never had a crush on anyone since Samjin so this feeling feels a little weird. I'm also older so maybe that has something to do with it.
" Jongin?" I heard Kyungsoo say. I turned around.
" Huh? Oh sorry I started to doze off."
" I might go back to sleep but I just wanted to tell you Taemin called while you were sleeping on the bus."
" What? Why didn't he tell me?!?!? Kyungsoo! Why didn't you wake me up? It could've been important!" I was so angry at him.
" Calm down I answered it. And I just wanted to say he was cheerful sounding!"
" What really?" No he could've been faking since you answered."
" I don't think so. He answered cheerfully when he thought I was you and he asked me if you were happy."
" Really? I smiled. What did he say?"
" He said to tell u to call him once we get in Seoul. He has some news."
" Well I'm happy you answered then. Thank you." I put my hand on his thigh. I don't know why I did but in this moment it felt right. I was so happy. Kyungsoo blushed and looked at my hand and then back to my eyes. He was smiling.
" No problem I'm always here." He put his hand on my thigh too. I felt all tingly inside. We looked in eachothers ' eyes for a while.
"We should try and go back asleep." I said breaking the silent moment.
" Ok. Goodnight." I rested my head on his shoulder, closing my eyes and dozing off with a slight smile on my face.

Kyungsoo's POV-
He feel asleep and I just couldn't. I felt so tingly all over my body. When he touched my thigh I felt so many butterflies in my stomach I could explode. I just wanted right there to say to him how many feelings I have for him. I did. I truly did. I knew now for sure that I liked him. I really did. He makes me feel so happy just when I talk to him.i could feel how red my cheeks were. They were probably really red when he touched my thigh but I don't care. I'm not embarrassed at all. I want to try to fall asleep so I rested my head on his and even though I knew I wouldn't hear me I said: " I really like you Kim Jongin."
