Jinyoung's POV
I shouldn't have agreed.
I was supposed to push him away.
Stupid mouth,
Stupid heart,
Stupid me for giving consent.
On our way back to their house, Mark has this wide smile plastered on his face as he drove. The guy was so happy he was even whistling! And me? Sitting with a blabbering toddler, awkward as ever! It didn't help that Mark kept on glancing my way and I, my body betraying me like hell, glances back to meet his eyes. He would smile at me when it happens. Do you know that smile that shows a lot of warmth and genuine happiness? It was weird, it had my heart beating like crazy.
When we got back to their house, I fled at lightning speed. I was obviously avoiding any confrontations with what had happened in the lake and I know that he can read it through my actions. He said nothing though and let me be.
Storming into my room, I quickly locked the door and slumped on the floor, dropping my bag beside me and not caring even when my laptop made a loud thud as it reached the floor.
"Shit, this is bad... oh my god, I can still feel his warm hands on my skin, his strong arms on my waist! I... I need to distract myself, what the hell should I do? Yeah, work, I'm gonna work," I blabbered to myself like a lunatic. I grabbed my things on the floor, placed them on my table, and proceeded to the bathroom. I need to freshen up first. Geez, I can still feel that spark of electricity from where he touched me.
I took a quick shower and hurriedly opened my laptop so I can start distracting myself from these feelings I thought I would never feel after shutting myself from the rest of the world. For the next hour, I busied myself typing and editing my work. I groaned as I massaged the aching shoulder and I could feel the stiffness up to my fingers. I made a quick stretch on my sore muscles before resuming my work. Not ten minutes later I heard a knock on my door.
"Jinyoung?" Mark called from the outside. "Can I come in?"
I squeaked and scrambled out of my chair, almost tripping myself in the process. I hurried towards the door to make sure he won't open it. "I uh, I can't open the door, I'm changing my uhm... my clothes... yeah," I stammered, mentally slapping myself for the lame excuse. I prayed hard that he won't insist on coming in.
"Oh, okay then." He said and I hoped he didn't catch up on my lie. "I just came to say that dinner is ready downstairs," he continued. I bit my lip. I actually don't want to face him now, I don't think my poor heart can handle the confrontation.
"I'm not yet hungry," I chirped instantly. "Y-you guys go ahead and eat. I'll have dinner later."
"You sure? I can bring up something for you," he offered, and again, something fluttered in my stomach and it made me blush.
"N-no it's okay, like I said I don't feel like eating yet," I replied.
