Glass Heart//2Jae

Youngjae's POV

Today's the day. Today's the day I'm going to officially tell Kai the feelings I've had for him since sophomore year. We've been friends since even before then so I definitely have the courage to tell him.

I've told him things before. My shitty past, my shitty present life, everything. This should be nothing, but why am I shaking as much as I am?

There he is. Oh gosh.

"Kai? Can I please talk to you for a moment?" I say making sure not to stumble over my words.

I take a deep breath before finally speaking, "I just want to tell you something I've been keeping a secret for a while now. Uhm, Kai I really like you. I've liked you since sophomore year and it's been killing me inside to not say this but I finally got the courage to tell you now."

I bring the bouquet of flowers from behind my back and put them between us for him to see and take.

He looked annoyed and embarassed.

"Youngjae," Kai said quietly, "I'm not gay."

"I'm sorry I didn't hear you. Could you speak a little lou-"

"I'M NOT GAY YOUNGJAE! I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU WOULD THINK THAT!" Kai yelled bringing attention to the both of us.

I stuttered, "I-I'm sorry Kai I-"

"You're ridiculous Youngjae! I'm not a faggot like you!"

Those were the last words out of Kai's mouth before he threw the flowers in the trash and shoved past me hard enough to push me to the ground.

I look around and see everyone's eyes on me. Some laughing, some whispering to each other, some giving the dirtiest looks they could.

I could hear my heartbeat in my ears as my breathing quickened and my whole body started shaking uncontrollably.

Don't cry in front of everyone Youngjae. You're stronger than this.

I quickly stood up after what felt like an eternity and ran to my school hideout, the school rooftop garden (Hello hsm stans).

When I reached the top I finally started crying.

I trusted Kai. He was my best friend. How could he do that to me? He called me a faggot.

Kai's words lingered in my head as I looked over and saw another student.

"Oh shit. I'm so sorry. I didn't realize another person was up here." I quickly apologize.

The student shakes his head, "No you're totally fine."

I look at him and notice his features.

Auburn hair, dark brown orbs, semi tight black shirt.

Wow.

"Are you okay? You look like you've been crying. And you're shaking really bad. Here come sit."

I slowly walked to the open bench as the memory of what happened not even ten minutes ago makes its way back into my mind.

"Are you alright?" He asks again.

"Yeah, other than the fact I just lost my best friend and embarrassed myself in front of the whole school."

He wrapped his arm around me and I felt chills go throughout my body as he pulled me closer to him, "If it helps you didn't embarrass yourself in front of me."

He chuckled and I gave a small smile, "I really am sorry to hear that. Anything I can do to help?"

I just shrugged my shoulders and looked at him to see him staring back at me.

"So what's your name?" I asked trying to change the topic.

"Im Jaebum. But you can just call Jb."

"Okay Jb. Well my name is Youngjae."

"It was a pleasure to meet you Youngjae." Jb said giving off a really cute smile.

I looked down at my hands before looking back to see Jb with my phone in his hand, "Woah when did you get that?"

"It was just in your jacket pocket. Easy access. You know you really should put a passcode on your phone."

I rolled my eyes before he gave me back my phone and his phone went off, "Well now we have each other's numbers."

"Isn't that fun." I said sarcastically.

"Hey no sarcasm. But I have to go. I'll see you around Youngjae." He said getting up and leaving without giving me a chance to respond.

"See ya. Jb."

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

Okay y'all that was really bad but I promise the chapters will get better as the book goes. But I am gonna make a few changes to this chapter later so I say don't get too stuck on this first draft. I'm not sure if I'll only change minor things or if I'll change the whole thing yet but we'll see.

Anyway, thank you for reading :)
