Letting Go: sequel to hunt

4

       On Friday, the last day of school, everyone was so happy, wishing each other merry christmas and talking about Yugyeom's party. Jimin couldn't contain her excitement of course. She rambled on about what she was wearing and how hot Yugyeom was throughout the whole day.

             We arrived at the party slightly late and I saw Younghyun was standing talking to some friends, there was wonpil, Jae and I recognised Bambam too. When Younghyun saw me he winked and smiled at me but didn't come over to say hi as Jimin dragged me around dancing, and chatting to various people. I was surprised, Younghyun was usually the first person to come greet me, but today he seemed almost disinterested. I remembered what Jimin had been talking about, "arm candy" and "rumours I shouldn't take notice of." Suddenly I was very conscious that that's exactly what it seemed like right now as Younghyun stood on the other side of room bopping his head slightly, a red cup in his hand. No, how could I think like this. I decided to forget about it, he seemed to be in deep conversation with Wonpil.

              Firetruck by nct 127 started playing on the speakers Yugyeom had placed around his living room. Jimin squealed and started dancing and I joined. I hardly even noticed Yugyeom nearing until he was dancing with us. I couldn't help but notice how he looked us up and down. I glanced over to Younghyun again. He hadn't seemed to notice. Yugyeom had somehow gotten closer to me and I simply watched as he raised his hand slowly to my waist. I knew it was wrong, to think this way, but I wanted to see if Younghyun would react, if he was watching...

           As Yugyeom pulled me closer I stopped myself. No, why was I thinking like this. Yugyeom's face fell as I took a step back from him. I looked over to see if I could see Younghyun through the crowd of people but he wasn't there.
Suddenly I felt strong hands on my waist from behind, "I'll take it from here Yugyeom." It was Younghyun. Yugyeom nodded and as if they had had a silent conversation through death stares, danced off towards another girl. Younghyun pulled me closer to him as he swayed to the song. "What do you think you're doing dancing with another boy, eh?" he whispered in my ear, his voice low and slightly husky.

          I couldn't help but smile, this moment reminded me of when he was chasing me before we got together. It showed he cared right? And that he was watching me and wanted me, right? But wasn't it bad that he only cared when there was a chance I was being taken from him. Why didn't he care before another boy was involved?
