All Thanks To a Piece Of Paper (ForthBeam)

-18-

         "Tae, who's here?" I ask as I roll his chest, covering my naked body with the blanket.

          Before any reply coming from Tae, the door bursts open. I shriek and hide under the blankets. Why could possibly by here, yelling for Tae?

         "Dude, I need your half of m - who's hiding under the sheets? And why are you naked?" I hear the girl ask. it doesn't sound like Melon, so who could this girl be? I'm too afraid to even look because of the humiliation.

         "Oh, Prae, this is Tee," Tae answer her first question nonchalantly and pulls down the blanket away from me. "And we're naked because you came in ruining a very romantic moment."

         I feel my face burn and my muscles begin to shake the embarrassment since a girl who just walked in on me and Tae, I feel pretty terrified. My heart heart keeps pounding harder and harder. Why did the exact moment have to happen now?

          "Oh! You're Tee?" I nod. "You are so much cuter than how Tae describe you!" The girl - Prae - squeaks while jumping up and down. And then, almost right after she started jumping, she stopped. "Wait, you two about to have sex?"

         "No, we just had sex, then you had to come in." Tae mumbled while relaxing on the bed.

         I lightly slap him on the chest and pull the blankets over my head. I can't believe Tae would be talking about our sex life with some girl I don't even know or if I should know her.

         I look over at her and she's actually pretty beautiful. She has light brown, almost black hair, bright hazel eyes that really suits her, and she's actually pretty short. She seems like a pretty nice person by just looking at her.

        Wait, the only question going through my head is 'why is she here?'

        The heartache fills my chest, along with displeasure, just the thoughts this girl why this girl could be here are heartbreaking. Maybe Tae could be cheating on me with her, or something like that. But, why would she be so cherry meeting me? Maybe she isn't even that kind of girl, maybe she's just a roommate of Tae.

        But, why would he have a girl as roommate?

       "Well, I'm sorry , but the landlord is coming soon to collect this month's rent. And I need your half," she said, looking in the drawers for something, mostly like money.

       "My wallet is in the kitchen, you can get the check from there," Tae replied wrapping an arm around my shoulders, still comfortable with showing his torso - close to his lower half - to Prae.

       She tanked him happily and skipped out the room. Just hearing them talk to each other made me feel like I was in a room full of adults. I felt so out ordinary just sitting and listening to them. It feels like I'm holding Tae back, and I don't want to. Why do I feel so bad for letting my feelings for him slip out so much?

       "I think I'm going to go home," I say and slip out of his hand who hold on me, going to the edge of his bed.

       "What? Why? I'm sorry, but I didn't know that Prae was coming so soon. Please don't go," Tae pleads while grabbing my waist, pulling me towards him.

       "No, I need to go home and do my assignment," I say, struggling to get my boxer on.

       "You can do it here."

       "I need help on it."

       "I can help you."

        A frustrated sigh leaves my mouth as I pull up my pants and pull my shirt over my head. "I just have to go, okay?"

       "But, I don't see why you have to..." Tae trails off and he wraps his arm around my waist, keeping me close to him. "If you think something is going on with me and Prae, you're wrong. She's lesbian."

       I widen my eyes and look over at him. He nods with a sly grin present on his face. "How do you know?"

      "She told me," He said and pulled me closer to him, and I don't resist. "Besides, I think sh might have a girlfriend anyway."

      "Then why would't she live with her?" I ask, still inching closer to Tae each second.

     The same reason why we don't live together yet," He comments and places his free hand on my thigh. I feel my face heat up again as butterflies flutter around in my stomach. "Please, stay here a little longer would you?"

      He closes his eyes half way, while looking up at me as I look down at him. I let out at breath and kiss him for a second, then pull away. "Fine, but I will leave soon. And I have one more question."

      "Which one?"

      "Why do you have a girl for a roommate instead of a guy?"

      "Because I knew you would get jealous."

      I huff and roll my eyes, causing hm to smirk and pull me down, making me lie down as he gets on top of me. All of the feelings I have for him felt like they just exploded inside of me. I can never stop feeling like this around Tae, and I actually like it. It gets in the way from school work or just simple conversation I just zone out, only thinking about Tae and everything we've done or been through together.

      "I know that," he smirks, and leans close to me, barely having out lips brush against each other. "And I have all the time in the world when I'm with you."

       I giggle slightly, placing my hands on his bare back, pulling him down to me. "What is that supposed to me?"

      "You know what I mean," He winks and presses his lips against mine before I could try to egg him on with him telling me by what he said.

      Oh well, figuring that out doesn't even matter. All that matters is that Tae and I are together and nothing bad is going on for once. I actually quite surprised. But, I never knew this would happen in my life.
