Chapter 09

I think I was starting to fall for Taeyong, but I wasn't going to make any assumptions just yet. Our walk was nice and peaceful, we decided to sit by a cherry blossom tree, I looked up at the tree, it's more beautiful then the books say. I continued to stare until I was interrupted, "beautiful isn't it?" I looked over to see Taeyong staring up into the tree, smiling. "It's wonderful."

"This is my favorite place. I can be totally free with absolute beauty in front of me. I don't really take people here, I like being here, so I can be alone.-"

Taeyong looked over and me, giving me a huge warm smile, "you're the first person I've taken here." Another blush made its way into my cheeks. Looking back up into the sky I felt an arm wrap around my shoulders, I looked over to see Taeyong looking at me. "Let's consider this a date." All I could do was agree, being on a date with him sounded nice, and I wouldn't mind, but I'm way to underdressed for a proper date. "Taeyong, I'm underdressed. If we went on a date I'd be the laughing stock right now." Taeyong let out a small laugh, and laid his head onto my shoulder, "Jagi, you're beautiful no matter what you wear, underdressed or overdressed. You're gorgeous." How many times can this boy make me blush in a day!? All I could do was nod and put on a huge smile.

When Taeyong dropped me off at home I was kind of sad, but relieved to take this flats off, I might have irritated my heel in these. I walked in and saw Johnny on the couch, with popcorn and sodas, along with three different movies. He noticed I walked in and ran up to me, "movie night! I got three different genres of movies here we can watch." I laughed and sat on the couch with him. After the first movie I started getting really cold, but Johnny quickly noticed and wrapped a blanket around me, then tucking me into his chest. "I'm sorry it's so cold." After all the movies I went upstairs to my room. I had three different notifications, a text from mom, Mark, and Taeyong.

Mom — How are you doing?
(Y/n — I'm fine.
Mom — Any exciting news?
(Y/n) — Mom how do you know when you like someone?
Mom — You'll figure it out one day, sweetie. Love doesn't really have a guide, you just figure it out on your way through life.
(Y/n) — Thanks mom, it's really late here so I'm going to bed. Goodnight.
Mom — Goodnight, good luck!

Closing her text I went to Taeyong's next.
Taeyong — I had fun today.
(Y/n) — Me too. I'll catch you at work tomorrow?
Taeyong — Yeah, totally!
(Y/n) — Bye.
Taeyong — Sweet dreams, (Y/n).

Now last but not least, Mark. I feel kind of bad because we haven't talked in a while, he's still my best friend though.

Mark — Oi, (Y/n), why'd you stop talking to me?
(Y/n) — Sorry, I've been busy and had a lot on my mind lately.
Mark — Penny for your thoughts?
(Y/n) — I think Johnny and Taeyong are fighting over me, and I can't tell if I like either of them. It's so complicated.
Mark — What do you mean fighting over you?
(Y/n) — Today, when Taeyong was taking me out for a walk Johnny gave me a hug...
Mark — And?
(Y/n) — Taeyong jerked Johnny's arms away from me and pulled me into a hug...
Mark — Come on! Just get to the huge details!
(Y/n) — Johnny told Taeyong that I wasn't his property, so Taeyong told him that if he had to make me his property to keep his hands off me then he will. While we were walking he held my hand and told me he'd work on making him mine.
Mark — Ah, I see.
(Y/n) — Weird isn't it?
Mark — No not really. He's known for being like that to people he likes.
(Y/n) — That he likes?
Mark — SORRY I GOT TO GO NOW! VERY TIRED!
(Y/n) — MARK!! Come back here and explain!!!
