Stuck in Between (EXO-APink Fan Fiction)

32. Hug

This chapter is for @shawol_exostan_sone └(^o^)┘Yehet!

I didn't have much time to update coz I was trying to finish all the korean dramas I set aside.

By the way, this is chapter 32. My chapter number jumped from 25 to 27. I just realized it now.

--------------

Tao's POV

WHAT THE HELL DID HAPPEN TO ME?!

I don't care about the pain in my hands for continuously punching the wall to release my anger.

I went running just after the game.

There's no person who is a more loser than I am.

Who thought of the ridiculous idea of playing the third-party in Kris's lovelife?

That's me.

Who thought of the ridiculous idea of playing with Chorong's emotions?

That's me.

And who let himself fall for his own trap?

That's me.

So who lost both the school varsity team and the girl he found himself to be in love with?

That's ridiculously ME.

A loser like me does not deserve to even show my face to my friends.. and to her.

Chorong's POV

Tao didn't come to school for three days already. Was he really affected with the result of the game?

"Chorong-ah. Why don't we go to the beach this weekend?" Bomi excitedly suggested.

We were having our lunch in the cafeteria with Chanyeol and Chen after a long time.

"That's a great idea!" agreed Chen. "It has been really exhausting this past weeks. Seeing the sea will be a stress relief."

"What exhausted you? You did not even had the chance to play during the game." Bomi teasingly argued.

Na Eun, Eunji and I giggled. Chen's face looks so funny being teased.

Chanyeol put his arm over Chen's shoulders. "Hajima! Chen really did his best in practice, you know."

"Hmpf!" Eunji exclaimed laughing. "Said the guy who only played for how many seconds was it? And didn't even do anything in the court but run."

But Chanyeol smiled widely. "Yet I saw you cheering for me so loudly~"

"Yah!" Bomi suddenly intervened. She gave the two suspicious looks. "I really think you two have special feelings for each other.."

"MALDO ANDWE!" Both answered in chorus.

Eunji then put her arms around his neck. "Huh! This kid?" pointing at him. "He's like a son that I raised."

I think I saw Yeol had a long face for like half a second but changed his expression to a happy one when he saw Eunji look at him. "Yeah right, eomma." He answered.

Eunji patted his head. "Good boy."

These two... hmmm..

"Hey guys!"

"Hyung!" Both Chen and Chanyeol automatically stood up with delighted faces hearing that person.

My heart started to pound like crazy. I also haven't seen him for three days since that night. Even in the convenient store. Tiffany eonnie said he went to his aunt in China. The sister of his dad. Well, as you all know, their half siblings.

Kris looks like he didn't sleep for days. He has got huge very dark circles. He could beat Tao's inborn ones with these. However, he still looks gorgeous. What happened to him there?

"Kris oppa~ oraenmaniyo (long time no see).." said Bomi.

Even Eunji and Na Eun greeted him. What's up with this? Since when did they become in good terms?

"Yah. Weakling. Aren't you happy seeing me?"

I was caught by surprise with that question. Of course, I am more than happy seeing you. But how do I answer it? I don't even know if we are still the mortal enemies like before after that dinner.

"Well... uhm.. " I couldn't think of an acceptable sentence to say.

"Ara. (I know)." He uttered. "You missed me." and smirked.

MWOYA?! At this moment, I should have contradicted his statement but I could not even open my mouth. I just stood there staring straight at him.

Everyone was silent as well. Looking at us with curiousity in their faces as if asking me why I am acting like this.

"Chorong-ah.." Eunji hissed and moved my arm telling me to answer Kris back.

"Uhm.. Wh---"

But I was cut off.

Igeo mwoya?

I also heard everyone exclaimed in shock.

Is he really hugging me?

"I missed you, too." He whispered but loud enough for my friends to hear and open their mouths in disbelief.

More than hearing my fast beating heart, I heard his. His heart is also racing just like mine.

This moment.. if this is a dream..I don't wanna wake up.

"Kris hyung..." But I was awaken by a call of an unfamiliar voice.

He let go of me.

I couldn't move. I am still standing there looking straight at him.

"By the way guys, this is Jackson. My cousin. He's from Hongkong." He introduced the guy who called his name.

"Hello~ I'm Jackson. What's up?" He greeted us with a wide smile and a gesture like he is rapping.

"Omona~ their genes are gorgeous." I heard Bomi whispered to Na Eun.

Yes, I agree. Jackson is also equally good looking though he's not so tall. But of course, Kris is number one for me. I can't believe I'm saying these stuff.

Jackson waved at me. "So you are Chorong. Kris hyung has been constantly talking about you." and he offered his hand for me to shake.

I was about to reach his hand but Kris reached and held it first.

"Let's go." He said, but more like a demand.

He smiled at me before he left. "See you later!"

Until he left, I could not utter a word.

"Mwoya Chorong-ah?!" Eunji asked in a demanding tone. "Are you in relationship with him? Since when was it and why didn't you tell us?"

Bomi stood in front of me crossing her arms. "I am supposed to get angry with you but since Luhan is my new bias, it's fine."

"No wonder you cheered for him during the game.." Na Eun added.

Chen and Chanyeol looked at me giggling.

"It's magical seeing him do that. Lay and Luhan hyung should have seen it." Chen commented.

Then that's the time I realized, we are in the cafeteria..

..and everyone is staring.

I found myself walking out of the area with head down, hair covering my face..

and when I reached the empty hallway..

Did Kris say he missed me?

Did he just hugged me?

I ran and jump back to our classroom in glee. This day is Jjang!
