Curses Can Be Gifts

Chapter 8

After breakfast was over, me and Naeun decided to get bubble tea. She's never had it before so I thought I would treat her to it. "Woah there are so many flavors!" Naeun said amazed once she saw the menu. I laughed softly. "What flavor do you get?" She asked me as she lightly tapped my feet under the table. "Oh, I get Strawberry." I pointed to it on the menu, She looked at hers and found strawberry. "I'll get that too, since I have no clue what to get." She smiled. I nodded. When the waiter came around, we ordered. While we were waiting for our order, I noticed a familiar boy in the corner of the store. "Is that.." I looked closer. "Jinyoung?" I said outloud. "Who?" Naeun asked curiously. "Jinyoung, he's in our class." I pointed to him. Next thing I know I see a girl in short shorts and a crop top walk in and go to Jinyoung. I watched them secretly as we waited. Soon after, we got over bubble tea and got up from the bench. Right when we were about to leave, I see Jinyoung stand up with the girl. The girl turns around and IT'S CHAEYOUNG! My jaw drops. "What-" "Oh hey N." Jinyoung waves at me innocently. I waved back. Chaeyoung and I make eye contact. She rolls her eyes. "We would stay and chat but we are busy so excuse us." I say and quickly leave asap. Naeun stood there looking at Chae and Jinyoung talking. I ran and hid in the bathroom because I am a wimp. Naeun smiled at her feet. She saw other feet that weren't mine standing in front of her. She looked up and Chae stood there smiling. I walked out and stood there watching. Chae ripped Naeun's purse out of her hands and poured bubble tea in it. "You helped him cheat.. You shouldn't own nice things. Or at least things that cost more than yourself." She smirked at the bubble tea. Naeun looked up and smiled at me. She gestured me to come here. She also smiled at Jinyoung. He just bowed in confusion. "Chae." I said looking at the purse. "Don't Chae me." She growled. She forcefully handed the purse to Naeun. Naeun still smiled. "What? What are you smiling at? Huh?" Chae shouted. "I was going to return your purse later but I guess you can have it now." Naeun handed her the purse. "Cost more than my self? You can't sell that purse for a penny. Wonder what that tells everyone about how much you are worth. Goodbye." Naeun smiled really big. We started walking to the door when Chae through the purse at us. I scented it and pulled Naeun with me. We slammed into the wall and started laughing as we shared a sip of bubble tea. With two different straws of course. I kissed her forehead and we headed back home. Chaeyoung's heart started beating fast and she passed out. Jinyoung rushed over to her. "Chaeyoung!" He called out.

Naeun and I had a quite walk home. "Sorry about all that." I said as I drug my feet against the concrete. "You shouldn't be sorry. You didn't do anything." She said looking at me. I nodded slowly.  "I'm still in shock that she broke up with me." I said as we walked up to my door. "Yeah.." Naeun said softly. "What's wrong?" I asked her opening the front door to an all black house. I let her inside then closed the door. "You don't still like her right?" She asked with a shaking voice. I laughed. "Naeun." I said. We looked at each other through the little bit of light we had. The light was shining from the kitchen. I slowly approached her and pushed her against the door. "N." She said. "Is it that hard to tell I like you?" I asked her leaning in. I saw her smile slightly. I leaned in and gave her a sweet short peck. "Naeun, I like you." I said to her pressing our foreheads together. She giggled. "Good."She have me a warm hug.
"Let's head to bed." I said grabbing her hand and taking her up the stairs. "Goodnight." I kissed her hand. "Wait, we aren't sleeping together?" She asked sounding confused. I stared at her. "No! We can't do that." I said to her gulping. "Waeee? Aren't we dating now?" She pouted cutely. I shook my head. "No, I didn't ask you out." I said smirking. "Yah!" She complained. "Goodnight~" I said hurrying into my room. I smiled.

The next morning wasn't that good. Naeun and I were both in really bad moods, I think we might have stayed up too late last night. "Are you ready?" I asked Naeun as I walked towards the door. "Yeah." She ran down the stairs and just so happen to trip on the last step. I ran forward and caught her in my arms. We just stared blankly at each other. "Sorry." She said in english. I smiled. I put her down and we left.

When we got to school, I saw a couple making out by the main doors. "Ugh, can't they get a room?" Naeun snapped. I laughed. We got closer and I noticed it was Chaeyoung and Jinyoung. I clenched my fist into a ball and tried to hold my jealously in. Naeun looked up at me and at my hand. She placed her cold hands on my fist and my hand began to open. I looked down at her and she smiled. My heart beat fastened and I smiled back. I held her hand and we passed them. Naeun looked back at them and laughed. "What?" I asked looking at her. "Oh. Nothing." She looked down and giggled. We walked into the room and Yuna glared at Naeun. "You two are dating?" She growled. I nodded hesitantly. Naeun smiled. "Why?" I asked walking to my seat with Naeun. "Because of the picture. Everyone saw it and Chaeyoung making out by the main door. So I just pieced it together." She laughed. "What picture?" I asked confused. "It's just of you two walking together and holding hands." She looked at Naeun and back to me. "Who took it?" Naeun smiled. "I don't know." She shrugged. Jimin walked over to Jiho which is behind Yuna. "Hey." He smirked. "Hi." She sighed. "What's wrong?" He asked stroking her head. "Get off, Jimin." She pushed him lightly. "Come on babe." She glared at him. "You're such a F***boy dude. Go away... I have a boyfriend anyways." She thought what she was going to before she said it. "Really? Who?" Jimin smirked. "Umm, Him." Jiho pointed to Jinyoung next to her. "Really?" Jimin stood up straight. Chae walked to her sit. "Chae aren't you dating Jinyoung?" He smiled. "Ummm.. Yes?" She mumbled. Jimin looked back at Jiho. Jiho gulped and pulled Jinyoung's headphones out of his ear. "Really? You had the nerve to cheat on me?" Jiho pushed him with sorry eyes. He was so lost. Jimin laughed and went to sit down. "What ju-" "I'll explain later." Jiho said. Jinyoung nodded awkwardly and put his headphones back in.
