TAEHYUNG'S POV
Loriel and I walked side by side, few inches away from each other. I know we aren't doing anything suspicious, but somehow I felt nervous.
"Hey Taehyung-ah!" Loriel suddenly spoke up. I flinched and looked at her, seeing how she didn't even spare me a glance when she call my name.
"N-ne?" I replied.
"Do you hate me?" She bit her lip and looked down. My eyes widened.
"W-What? No! W-Why would you t-thought I wo-would? I asked hastily, not wanting her to have such idea in her mind.
"Well," She sighed before looking at me with a small smile. "I kind of noticed that everytime that we are together you tend to get all awkward and flinch away. Even now, you just did." She says in all honesty, while kicking a small pebble on the sidewalk in the process. I mentally slapped myself for making her interpret my actions in a wrong way. Taehyung-ah Pabo!
"A-Ani! I d-don't hate yo-you! I like you a-a lot!" I told her, not realizing the meaning it held after I blurted it out so carelessly.
Loriel froze on her tracks and her cheeks got flushed. I am panicking on the otherhand.
"Wa-Wait t-that's not-- n-no-- yes! B-But I ahh--" My stuttering got worse the more I wanted to explain myself. Loriel looked at me confused, but still looked a bit more red than earlier.
"I-It's okay... I uhmm... I like you too!" She bit her lip and played with her hands. Now it my turn to blush, as my jaw went slacked. HOLY SHI-
Before I can reply, she walked past me, but stop to glance at me and ask me to follow her. I guess she also can't take the awkwardness in the situation that she decided that we should just leave it alone for a while. I closed my mouth, tripping on my feet and followed her.
We are even closer than we have been earlier. Our hands kept brushing each other as it swayed on our sides. For the second time Loriel stopped and sighed. She faced me a bit and laid out her hand.
"Give me your hand." She says. My eyes almost bulged out of their sockets. Is she serious???!
Too caught up in my thoughts, her next move caught me off guard. She took my hand in hers and intertwined it together, before putting it back down between us.
"There. At least we don't have to bump each others knuckles from time to time, it hurts you know." She told me. I wanted to look at her, but my eyes were stuck looking at our hands. They fit each other perfectly. WHAT IF MY PALM GET SWEATY OML!!! HELP!
"Besides, we're on our date right? I see nothing wrong with that." She blurted out. I scold myself in the back of my mind. SHE'S SMOOTHER THAN A BABY'S BUMP OMG!!! AM I EVEN A MAN ANYMORE?! I SHOULD BE DOING THIS!
"Oh y-yeah. C-Cool." I replied.
"Oh wait! I kind of remebered some place that we can come into!" She squealed in excitement. I smiled at her adorable attempt to lighten up our situation.
"W-Where?" I asked curiously.
"There's an arcade a few blocks from here. They don't have much people on a school day, so we'll probably have the place to ourselves for a while." She grinned. I cocked an eyebrow at this, thinking that might have been the best suggestion so far. I nodded immediately.
