Hold My Hand - JOOHEON

Your boyfriend of three years is picking you up for your date. He's really excited because it's your three year anniversary. You, on the other hand, are nervous. You've been meaning to break up with him for a while now but every time you tried, seemed to be the wrong time. Your third anniversary isn't exactly the right time but you needed to do it as soon as possible. Last night you spent it with someone you wish to call more than just a friend, Jooheon. You two have had a thing going on and you wouldn't call it cheating because nothing physical happened but it still felt like cheating. You two have been talking for a month and you have flirted with him and he's done the same with you. You've told him you have a boyfriend but he still tries to get with you. He'd often tell you to break up with your boyfriend but immediately after he'd say he was kidding. You two would just laugh it off but you both knew he wasn't kidding. He'd make it so obvious that he was into you but he never dared to tell you. Your feelings for him have gotten a lot stronger the past week since you two spent every single day together. Yesterday you were freaking out because your third anniversary is today so you went to Jooheon to distract yourself. That idea worked so well that you didn't even leave his place. At some point he whispered your name. You looked away from the TV to put all your attention on him.

"I just wanted to tell you... I know you have a boyfriend but-" Jooheon started.

"Jooheon, don't." You knew exactly what he was going to say but you didn't want him to. You were afraid that if he told you, you were going to need to reject him and that'd ruin whatever relationship it is that you two have.

"I can't hold these feelings in anymore. I'm sorry but I need to tell you. You can reject me and move on with your life but I need these words to leave my mouth. I love you. I love you so much and I know it's stupid because we've only been friends for a month but I can't help it. I love you so much that it's driving me insane. I hate the fact that I can't even do a fucking thing about it because you have a boyfriend. I know I've joked about this a lot but this time I mean it, please break up with your boyfriend. I know it's a lot to ask for but please." You can tell it was hard for him to tell you this and you wish you could just do what he asks of you because the truth is it's what you want to do.

"Jooheon..."

"Please." He begged some more.

"You don't even know how many times I've tried to. Something always interrupts me whether it's his job calling or him stopping me from talking to show me he bought me a new gift and he buys me new things more than once a day! Breaking up with him is absolutely impossible and I've been trying to for you. I really like you too." You frowned as you looked down at your feet. Jooheon pressed a kiss on the side of your head and then rested his forehead against your head and closed his eyes.

"Hearing you say that makes it really hard for me to not kiss you on your lips." He whispered. You looked at him and wanted nothing more than to kiss him but you knew you couldn't. Your conscience wouldn't let you. Jooheon was the same, he would never let himself get involved with someone who was already dating someone else, even if they wanted to cheat on their significant other. You both slowly moved closer to each other. Your lips were inches away from his. The temptation was getting even more hard to handle. He put his hand on your back and pulled you into a hug. You sat there, in his arms as tears roll down your face. After a while, you pulled away and wiped your tears. You both sat back and went back to watching TV. Although your eyes were on the TV, your minds were on each other.

"Jooheon." He always loved the way you said his name but he loved it even more when you said it in such a soft and innocent way.

"Yeah?" He replied quietly.

"Can you please hold my hand?" You asked and he immediately slid his hand into yours. He gripped it tightly as if you were falling and he would never let go. You put your chin on his shoulder and whispered a promise in his ear. His eyes stayed on the TV but his lips curved into a smile. You rested your head on his shoulder and smiled as you closed your eyes.
