사랑 참 어렵다 (Love is hard)

Chapter Thirty.

[ Dohee pov ]

"That was amazing work you guys!" I said, smiling brightly as me and two other girls embraced. We had finished doing our group piece of hip hop dancing to rihanna's song - better have my money. A piece that took me awhile to put together but enjoyed every single minute of doing it.

I quickly congratulate them one more time before moving away to go and find a seat in the crowd, ready to watch Heesoo's performance.
I knew without a doubt that she was going to blow my mind and I was super excited for it!

I walked out to see a waving Namjoon. Smiling, I walked over to him and sat in the empty chair between him and Kris. As I sat, Namjoon patted my back congratulating me on my performance and dance piece.

"You were amazing" whispered Kris.

His sudden whisper caught me off guard, that I whipped my face too quickly in his direction, causing our heads to bump each other.

"Owh" I say softly holding my head "I'm sorry" I say with a chuckle as I look up at Kris.

He smiles and grabs my face in his hands and smiles as he moves one to place on my forehead.

"Are you ok?" He says with a smile.

Looking at him now, I never realised how handsome he was. I mean, I did before....but now, right now.....it's something else.

"What? Is there something on my face?" Kris says teasingly

Realising that I was staring at him, I chuckle and shake my head moving out of his grasp. Silly boy. Pointing towards the stage, I smile "focus on the show." I say.

Kris smirks and leans towards me, whispering in my ear "with you beside me? You're cruel."

Rolling my eyes, I chuckle and smile looking back onto the stage, just as Heesoo walks out onto the stage.

She looks so beautiful. Getting up, I clap my hands together loudly and whoop for her as loud as I could. "That's my girl!" I scream.

Namjoon hits my hips and motions me to sit down. Smiling, I give her one last shout before sitting down.

"Weirdo" Namjoon says with a chuckle.

I poke out my tongue at him and then look back to Heesoo. The gentle sound of the piano keys being played.
Calmness and peace settlea over the auditorium.

Smiling, I continue to watch. Feeling all the emotion in her voice. I turned to look behind, watching Kai's face. They were so precious and their love for each other was special. I felt a tear form at the corner of my eye as I continued to watch Kai's reaction and facials for the girl that he loved and cherished. Ah, so beautiful. I loved these two so much and I knew from this moment that I wanted to protect them both and what they have.

Facing back to the front, I smile thinking of all the possible new memories that they will have in the future.

Still watching Heesoo's amazing performance, I feel the warmth of someones hand interlace with mine. Looking down at my hand, I look back up at Kris who was smiling at me softly. He reaches over and wipes away the tear and smiles at me again.

Danggit, Heesoo and her performance just has everyone feeling feels. Smiling back at Kris, I look back at Heesoo.
Kris smiles and leans towards me whispering "oh did you know...we are guard free now?"

I look back at him, wide eye. "No!?" I whisper. Kris just smiles and nods! Oh, Heesoo is gong to love this! We should totally go out and eat after this and catch up!!! I smile looking back at Heesoo, giving Kris's hand a tight squeeze. I hear him chuckle and he returns the squeeze.
