Park Jihoon - Girlfriend

This is for lilblanktae
Hope you like it~

I walked out of my house and locked the door. I checked the time real quick before running down the street to Jihoon's house. '7:30. Good we still have half and hour'

I knocked on his door and out came Jihoon with his usual smile. He locked his door before looking at me "You ready?" I nodded and we both started walking to school.

Jihoon and I have been best friends since before we were born. Our fathers were best friends in university who married their high school sweethearts and ended up settling down near each other.

They've always hoped that their children would get along, and they were happy to see how close Jihoon and I are. And since then, we've done everything and told everything to each other.

We were nearing the gate when a couple of Jihoon's friends came by. They saw me with him and waved. I smiled and waved back before heading towards my classroom.

On my way, I saw my friend Jawahir. She saw me and walked over after finishing her last conversation. "Hey Connie, what's up?" I smiled back and walked with her to class.

"Nothing much. The whole Jihoon thing is still there.."  Jawahir sighed and grabbed my shoulders. "Listen Connie, you and Jihoon have been friends for literally your entire lives. I doubt that the person that you hung out with while in diapers would break your heart like that.."

I played with my fingers as I looked back to Jawahir. "Really?" She nodded and I let out a sigh of relief as we walked into our class. We went to our seats and just as I was about to take my stuff out, my phone buzzed.

I picked it up and saw a text message from Jihoon

From:~Jihoonie~
To: ~Connie~

  Hey Connie, I need to tell you something important.. do you mind meeting me at the school's garden when the bell rings for lunch?

I showed the text to Jawahir, who started smiling after she read it. "That could be a sign! Maybe he wants to confess. I mean, our school's garden is considered a place for couples.." I nodded as I replied back.

From: ~Connie~
To: ~ Jihoonie~

Yeah, sure! I'll be there

Now, as each class passed, all I could think about was Jihoon's text. 'Would he really want to confess? Should confess to him first? Ugh, I don't know! When will the stupid bell ring??'

After what felt like days, the bell for lunch finally rang. I packed my stuff away and ran down the stairs to the school's garden. I saw Jihoon and smiled to myself. I walked up behind him and tapped his shoulder. Jihoon turned around and smiled once he saw it was me.

"Hey Connie, I'm glad you made it.." I nodded as I looked down for a bit. "Of course I would make it. What are best friends for? Listen, Jihoon..I wanted to say something to you for a while now."

Jihoon nodded but stopped me for a while. "Can I go first? It's a bit important.." I nodded again as he continued

"Listen, Connie.. I just wanted you to be the first person to meet my new girlfriend. Come on out Jisoo" I felt my heart break as the girl, walked out from behind a tree and smiled at me. "Hello, you must be Jihoon's best friend, Connie right?" I slowly nodded as her smile grew bigger.

"It's nice to meet you! I'm Jisoo. Jihoon and I have been dating for a couple of months now... we wanted people to know a bit later, but knowing Jihoon, he wanted to tell you first." I looked at Jihoon who was smiling at Jisoo. He looked back at me. "Right, Connie. Didn't you say you wanted to tell me something?"

I shook my head and put on a fake smile. "It's fine. It's nothing important. I got to head back to class now. I still need to hand in something to the teacher." I ran back into the school, wiping the tears that kept falling down..

•••

Weeks have past since Jihoon told me about Jisoo and so far, she's been nothing but horrible to me. She puts garbage in my locker, accused me of taking her necklace and much more. But my limit was reached when today, she threw my bag in the dumpster while I went to the washroom.

I had to skip class to find it and once I saw the traces of my work near the dumpster, I went in trying to find it.
"Look at this. I thought you were trashy Connie, but this is just disgusting"

I turned around and saw Jisoo smirking at me as I went through the garbage. I stood up and went towards her. "What did I even do to you? You're the one making my life a living hell!"

Jisoo rolled her eyes and scoffed. "You know what you did. You're the one who's still best friends with my boyfriend. I'm just here to teach you a lesson. I told you to stay away from Jihoon. And since you didn't listen, I had to punish you. But all this could go away if you just agree to not be around Jihoon... So, what do you say Connie?"

"She won't be needing to do that.." we both looked in the direction of the voice and saw Jihoon holding his phone up. Jisoo's eyes widened as she ran over to him. "Jihoon, it's not what you think. She threw my bag in the dumpster, so I told her to go get it."

Jihoon just walked away from Jisoo "I know what really happened. So don't try and lie to me. You don't deserve to even fall in love. Now apologize to Connie before this video is sent to every student in this school."

Jisoo mumbled and apology and walked away. I looked down at my state and felt my cheeks turn hot out of embarrassment. Jihoon saw and laughed a bit. He found my bag from in dumpster and handed it to me. I gave him a small thank you as I tried to walk away. But he had a grip on my wrist and he wouldn't let go.

"Connie, I'm sorry for breaking you heart. Jawahir told me everything and I felt terrible. The truth is... I really do like you, but I thought you wouldn't feel the same way. I only dated Jisoo in order to forget my feelings for you. But it didn't work.  I'm sorry.."

I smiled and pecked Jihoon on his cheek. "I really do like you too. I've never stopped." Jihoon smiled and started waking off campus. I looked at him confused "Jihoon, where are we going.?"

Jihoon looked back at me and smiled. "Well first you're taking a shower. Then, we're going on a date. Anywhere you want"
