*Y/n's POV*
He was still sleeping but he was speaking. "What did you say?" I said to him as I whispered to him. "Y/n.. I have to marry Chorong, I can't. Because I love you." He said as he opened his eyes. "You're awake?" I asked him. "What? I just woke up?" He said. "Why did you say that?" I asked. "Say what?" I didn't say anything?" He gave me a confused look. "You said you had to marry Chorong but-" he ended up interrupting me. "I love you." He looked at my eyes. "I know. I said that." He said as he got up. "Are you for real?" I asked him. "Yeah. I'm not going to do it anyways. Let's get ready for school." He suggested. I got on my uniform and we walked to school. He suddenly held my hands. "You're not afraid to show people you could hang around this nerd anymore?" I asked. "No. I think this 'nerd' is just for me. They'll know to not touch mines." He said as he held my hands tighter. "You're crazy." I said hitting his arm. We laughed and joked around. Until he spoke up. "Y/n? I want to ask something." Eric asked nervously and looking at the ground. "Yeah? What is it?" I asked. "Why aren't we dating yet?" He said as he stopped walking. My heart started beating fast. I didn't know how to respond. "What? 'Yet'? We'll never." I jokingly said letting go of his hands so I could walk on my own. He began laughing and caught on with me. "It's okay. I'll wait." He said as he put his arms around my neck and we walked the entire way there. After school I decided to go back home. Halmoni asked me where I went. I told her the truth but she didn't freak out. "I knew he loved you." She said giving me a wink. 'Loved me'? "What do you mean?" I asked her. "He always speaks about you. If you ever wondered how he knew your name. I gave it to him because he asked." She said giving me a pat. "He's a sweetheart." She said as she put on her shoes. "I'll be at the store. Call me if anything happens." She said as I waved her goodbye and she left. He's a sweetheart? Sure. The SweetHeart Bully.
*Months later(June)*
I decided to work on the garden. I heard the gate door open. Maybe it was Halmoni. I looked and saw no one. I got scared maybe thinking it was the man. He probably followed me back here from school? I stood up searching around. "Guess who?" Someone said as they covered my eyes. "Well this person sounds very old. Maybe a ajusshi (Old Man)" I said crackling up. "Really? Ajusshi??!" The person got mad and screamed. "Gosh I was just playing, Q!"

 "Gosh I was just playing, Q!"

I knew it was Q. I was just playing with him. I bend down to plant the plants in the soil. "Can you wipe my head? I'm sweaty." I asked if he could. He soon brought a little towel and wiped my forehead. "You worked well. Let's go on a date today?" He asked me. "Yeah. Let's wait for my Halmoni to come first." I suggested. I promised to take him out for a bit since we haven't hung out for awhile. "I thought I saw someone." Q said as he looked over the gate. "Really?" I asked. "Maybe it was just in my head?" He said as he helped me up to get ready. We went to the park and played for a bit. "Aren't we a little too old for this?" I asked. "No! It's fine! We'll go to the fast food area later!" Q said as he tagged me and ran away. We soon got some food and he sent me off home. I went inside and saw Eric helping my Halmoni. "Oh! Hi." I said as I greeted them. "We're making cranberry pie!" Halmoni said. "Ouu! That's good! When did you get here Eric?" I asked but he didn't reply. "He's tired from working hard. Go wash up and come back down here." Halmoni suggested me to do and so I went off. I went back down stairs and Eric was gone. "Where did Eric go?" I asked. "He's in the garden." Halmoni said. "Oh. Well. How many more minutes?" I asked. "12 more minutes. Y/n?" She said as she sat by me. "Yes?" I replied. "Are you seeing someone?" She asked me. "No. Why?" I replied.
*Eric's POV*
I went to go surprise Y/n but I saw a boy with her. He covered her eyes and he asked her on a date and she agreed. Maybe she's seeing someone else. I left as I went back and helped Halmoni. "Is Y/n seeing someone else?" I asked..
