The Things I Couldn't Say...[Editing]

Your Smile

Hana's P. O. V.
++++++++++++++++

To be honest, this was the first time I've sung in front of anyone. Not that I was shy about it. It's just that people never asked me to and I liked playing classical instruments more than singing. Jungkook is a singer, so I know his voice will be way better than mine. That made me a bit nervous.

"You'll be fine," Jungkook said with a smile, "I'm sure you sing perfectly."

That compliment made my heart flutter. What is wrong with me? Why was I even nervous about singing in front of the class? All the students were going to anyways. There was nothing to be nervous about. While all the other students performed their song, I fiddled with my small violin necklace. That necklace was my good luck charm. I've had it since I first started playing the violin. Hyerin gave it to me before my first performance. I remember it like it was yesterday.

+Flashback+

I was nine years old and really nervous about messing up. I had a violin solo in the middle of the song and I was afraid I'd mess up.

"Hana, you'll do just fine," Hyerin said patting my head, "You practiced hard for this."  She was only a little older than me and I looked up to her. 

"Are you sure? What if I make a mistake?" I said holding my violin close to me. 

"Here I got something for you." Hyerin dug into her pocket and pulled out a silver charm necklace that had a small violin as the charm. It was so pretty. She put it around my neck with a smile on her face.

"If you ever feel nervous, remember that this violin will bring you luck," She said. I smiled and hugged her. Thanks to that, I no longer felt nervous. The lights on the stage were turning on and it was time for me to perform.

"I'll do my best!" I said as Hyerin left to go back to her seat. The curtains opened, revealing all the kids on stage. I took a deep breath and thought about the necklace. The performance was going well and it was getting closer and closer to my violin solo. When it was time for my solo, I looked at the crowd as I played. Hyerin was smiling at me in the audience. Her thumbs were up, giving me proud looks. That day was the day I realized that I loved music. I wanted to continue playing the violin.

+Present+

It was our turn to perform our song. The whole class was looking forward to this because Jungkook wrote it. We went to the front of the classroom and Jungkook introduced the song. I was so nervous, my hands were shaking. So I kept them clenched at my sides. Jungkook must have noticed because he held my hand. My heart jumped when his hand touched mine. His hand was warm and it assured me for some reason.

Now it was time to sing. With Jungkook's reassurance, I wasn't nervous anymore and we performed the song well. When we finished, the whole class applauded us. Jungkook and I went back to our seats.

After class, a random student came up to us. "You and your girlfriend are so cute," She said to Jungkook.

We both glanced at each other and then looked back at the girl. "She's not my girlfriend... We're just friends," Jungkook said.

For some reason, it hurt when he said that, but why? I knew we were just friends. He probably still had feelings for Hyerin. I couldn't help but be jealous. Hyerin is such a great person, that I couldn't compete.

After school, Jungkook and I went to the park. We were on the swings, only moving a little.

"Your voice was amazing," Jungkook said.

"It's wasn't that great," I said, feeling my face heat up. Who would've known that a compliment could make my heart beat like this? 

"No, I've never heard anything like it. You should become a singer," Jungkook said swinging a little.

I smiled. I never thought I was that great, but Jungkook apparently thought so. It got quiet. I didn't know what else to say. My mind wandered back to when he held my hand. Did he do that to calm my nerves or was there another reason?  I wanted to ask, but I didn't want to at the same time. Why was Jungkook on my mind this way?

All these questions made me realize something; I had feelings for Jungkook.

Hyerin's P.O.V.
+++++++++++++

I got a message from Jimin saying that he was coming back to Busan to film the music video with Surani. I didn't like the idea that Surani was going to be with Jimin. It wasn't too long ago when she said I was her competition. It didn't help that she was much prettier than me. I know Jimin told me that I'm pretty and I shouldn't worry about Surani, but I couldn't help it.

Jimin wanted me to meet him at the cafe so we could spend some time together. At the cafe, Jimin was so happy to see me that he hugged me tightly.

"Ahhh, I missed you so much," Jimin said pulling away from the hug.

"I'm glad you're finally back. It wasn't as fun here without you," I said as we found a table to sit at.

Jimin and I talked about many things. It was great getting to see him again. Suddenly, Jimin's Phone started to ring. Jimin took it out of his pocket and answered it.

"Come to the set right now?" He said, "Okay, I'll be there in five minutes."

Jimin then hung up. He sighed and stood up. "The director wants to start making the video right now," Jimin said, "You can come with me if you want."

"Sure, this will be fun," I said standing up. Jimin and I walked to the video set holding hands.  

When we got there, Surani greeted us. I frowned at her, but she kept her little fake smile. "Oh Jimin, I see you brought your girlfriend with you," Surani said, "We should start filming."

Jimin nodded and Surani left. "Here just wait for me over there," Jimin said kissing my cheek. He then left to start working. I went over to the snack table and watched Jimin and Surani. Surani was too close to Jimin. I didn't help that the song was a romance collab. 

"They would be a cute couple, don't you think?" Someone said to me. She must have been one of the set designers. 

"Actually, he's my boyfriend...," I said awkwardly. 

"Oh, I didn't know," She said, "Surani seems to like him. You better be careful."

She walked away with a plate of fruit. She was right. If I don't do something, Surani could steal away Jimin's heart. She was definitely pretty enough and Jimin probably doesn't know about her evil side. I waited and after a few hours or so, they were finished filming for the day. I approached Surani when she was away from Jimin. Then I pulled her aside.

"I see what you're trying to do and It won't work," I said crossing my arms. 

Surani smirked. "I'm just trying to get what I want. I told you this before, I want Jimin," She replied.

"You may be spoiled and rich, but you can't have Jimin," I said. 

"What makes you think Jimin will stay with you?"

Before I could respond to that, Jimin came over to us. "Hyerin there you are," He said grabbing my arm, "We should go home. See you tomorrow, Surani."

Jimin took me away from the video set. I was confused. Why did he suddenly grab my arm and drag me away? Did he hear the conversation? We stopped walking when we got near the park. Jimin sighed and sat down on the bench. I hesitantly sat down next to him. 

"Jimin, I don't really like Surani," I said. Maybe it was best for me to tell him the truth. Jimin looked at me. 

"Why do you say that?" Jimin asked. 

"Well, Surani really likes you. She's pretty, talented, and perfect," I said, "You'd probably be better off dating her." 

It hurt to say it out loud. "Hyerin, what are you talking about?" Jimin said standing up, "I don't like Surani, I love you."

I looked up at him with wide eyes. What did he just say? "D-did you just say you love me?" I asked.

Jimin leaned down closer to me and our lips were almost touching. "I love you, Hyerin," He said once more before kissing me. My heart leaped from those words. It felt great to have Jimin return my feelings. I knew he liked me as a girlfriend, but I didn't know he was in love with me. I ran my fingers through Jimin's hair as we kissed. I've never been this happy in my life.
