Eighteen (Namjoon x Reader)

Chapter Twelve

I reach for the handle of the door and turn. I walk into the room to see Namjoon, bent over a desk, writing. His eyes followed the pen in his hand. his hand was moving at the speed of light. I shut the door behind me. He turned his head to me as the sound of the door closing made him aware of me. "Hi, I need to talk to you about something." I said.

His back straightened and he looked like he knew what i was going to say. But he doesn't. "Yes?" He says, raising his eyebrow.

"I know you think Yoongi and I are dating behind your back. We're just friends, nothing like that is going on." I say, taking in a breath.

He looked confused. "I never said that...." he said.

"Yoongi said that you two had a big argument last night." I said, perplexed.

"We did fight but, no, I never said I thought you are dating." He said. I take a seat next to him. my mind racing at the thought of my friend lying to me. "What did he tell you about our argument?" He asks.

"Well, he said that you told him that you were going to ask me out and he told you to hold off. He said that you took it the wrong way and that you thought that he said that because we are dating but that's not the case..." I sum up.

"Oh, he told you that..." He trails off, avoiding eye contact.

"But the reason that he told you to hold off is because I knew you like me." I say. I want to make things clear. It can be hard for me to talk freely about feelings, I become a stone and freeze up. But this time was different because if I freeze up I could ruin a friendship.

"When did he tell you!" He looked a bit angry.

"He didn't have to tell me," I say "I already knew and I talked to him about it a week ago. I told him my mind, that I don't know my feelings for you yet, and we agreed that if you told him you would ask me out and I still don't know he would tell you to wait."

It was difficult talking about this. I felt something strange. "What happened is that after he told me to wait he said it's because I take things away from him." he says, bringing his eyes up to mine.

Him too? He likes me too? "What? He likes me?" I say, surprised.

"He does, we didn't fight about whether or not you two were dating, we fight about who you would chose and who is better for you..." He explains.

He was quite, soft, and gentle with his words. This was a side that I have never seen out of him. He was always aware and secure. "I have to chose?" I say.

"If you want to. If you don't want a relationship with either of us that is different." He reassures.

"I don't want to hurt you, either of you." I say, I can't handle this. "I have to go"

"Wait!"

I leave the room and get home as quickly as possible. As soon as I get home I go straight to sleep. I don't have to think about it if I sleep.

Writers note: Hi! Just to let you know I read every single comment and I am beyond thankful for your support. I had this chapter written a while ago but to be honest I kind of forgot to post it. I also have like 4 other stories I have written in the past few years that I might look over and publish, would you like more stories? I would really like to know who you want the stories to have in them. I have less then 2 months until I go on summer break and I'm not doing much then so I will definitely be able to update then. I think I might end this one at chapter 20 or so but idk, lets see what happens. Have a beautiful day!
