사랑 참 어렵다 (Love is hard)

Chapter Seventeen

Heesoo's POV

"Bye oppa," I said quietly as Kai pulled me into his arms and hugged me tightly. I buried my face in his neck, letting out a sigh.

"Bye Heesooah," Kai replied, kissing my cheek. He pulled away and looked into my eyes before speaking again, "What are you doing tomorrow night?"

"Mmm," I pursed my lips in thought, "Nothing...homework."

"Well, I want to take you on a date," Kai smiled, "How does 6 sound?"

"Sounds perfect," I smiled back. I quickly kissed Kai's cheek before pulling completely out of his embrace and opening the door, "Bye oppa."

"Bye jagi," Kai said as I closed the door. I leaned against the door, fanning my blushing face. How did I get so lucky? Is this even real? I mean...how did I manage to capture the interest of my bias? It's kinda mind blowing. I huffed out a breath and walked over to sit on my bed, waiting for Dohee.

Dohee's POV

We finally made it to my dorm and Kris pulled me in for a hug. He pulled away after a moment and his piercing gaze met mine.

"Are we still doing this friend thing?" Kris rose an eyebrow at him.

"Uh, well," I blushed, looking down. Kris placed a finger under my chin and pulled my face up.

"Let me take you on a date, please?" Kris asked.

"Umm," I took a deep breath, "Um, yeah ok."

"Perfect," Kris flashed me a perfect smile, "Tomorrow at 7?"

"Such a cliché time," I snickered, "But yeah that works."

"I'll see you tomorrow dork," Kris ruffled my hair before walking away. I shook my head and entered my dorm.

"Tell. Me. Everything," Heesoo said immediately.

"Ugh," I flopped onto my bed, "Where do I start?"

"Um at the beginning," Heesoo laughed, "Start from talking outside after the concert."

"Wow, I can't believe that all happened today," I sighed. I took a deep breath and then began to tell Heesoo everything that had happened. She was a great listener; her facial expressions were priceless and for once she was silent. I finished talking and waited with baited breath for Heesoo to reply with a hailstorm of excitement or something.

"So....do you like him?" Heesoo rose an eyebrow at me.

"Heesooah...I just told you-" I started.

"No, you told me what happened," Heesoo interrupted, "You didn't tell me how you felt about it. Start talking. About your feelings this time."

"I don't like to talk about my feelings," I pouted.

"Talk," Heesoo said seriously.

"I-I don't know how I feel yet," I finally spoke, "I mean yes, there's something there. I do feel something when I'm with him. But....Heesoo I'm scared."

"Scared of what?" Heesoo asked, a genuine look of concern on her face.

"I just....may not have had the best experiences in the past..." I said vaguely.

"I see," Heesoo nodded knowingly, "Ok, well you have a date tomorrow. Go on that and then we can talk more."

"Yeah ok," I sighed in relief.

"Alright, I'm going to bed, I need my beauty sleep for tomorrow," Heesoo joked, "You ok?"

"I'm ok, go to sleep," I smiled. Heesoo quickly got ready for bed and seemed to fall asleep quickly. I got ready much slower and took a lot longer to fall asleep, my thoughts filled with worries about Kris. And about my past.
