dare [h. renjun]

-chapter seventeen-

(kind of not feeling the first part of this chapter, but oh well... just read until the end ^^ )

"why are you so scared to let him know we're dating? you like him, do you?"

"hello (y/n)." a guy standing tall infront of me smiled, showing the dimples on his cheeks as his eyes were barely visible.

i stared at him for awhile with a blank face which made him chuckle. "you look familiar.." i uttered, holding my chin as i thought about a possible person in my mind.

he opened his arms, showing a huge smile as he said, "nice to meet you again, childhood friend."

i froze on my position for awhile, sinking all the informations in like a computer trying to download files---with a slow internet connection. i didn't let him hang in the air, so i ran towards his arms, as his hands wrapping around me.

"sungwon!" i exclaimed, happy to see him again after years of waiting. it also made me glad that he still makes me feel like we're still close friends unlike being shy around me since we haven't seen each other for a very long time.

i broke the hug, as he pouted, "i was trying to contact you for years!" i simply chuckled awkwardly as he uttered those words when i saw him looking like he was disappointed. even though we were close friends back then, it sometimes feels weird now that we've grown up. if we're still kids, we would instantly dive into playing, but right now, it's different.

"woah.. you grew tall." i trailed my eyes up and down, as he chuckled again. i still can't believe sungwon is now way taller than me since i was used on being the tall one before.

"and you look beautiful." (a/n: ohh your boy jeongin being smooth already) he replied, as i suddenly felt awkward, not knowing what to say.

"was i not beautiful back then?" i asked, playing to be annoyed. i decided to reply this way, so it wouldn't come out awkward.. knowing that i, myself is awkward.

"no, you were cute."

i pouted which made him laugh. i was about to head to the door, telling him to come in until i saw the guys peeking through the window, as i signaled them to go back.

i facepalmed mentally to remember the boys are in the house... and the house looks a mess.

i opened the door to see them rushing towards the couch and chairs in the living room, making such noisy footsteps, and ready to see the visitor. i shook my head while sighing.

"come in." i opened the door widely for him, as he kept smiling.

"my parents will be visiting here tomorrow to see mr. and mrs. lee." he said, making me nod.

his eyes caught haechan walking towards us, as they gave each other a hug, and a pat on the back. "thank you for helping us on the plane tickets a month ago."

(a/n: it was when haechan decided not to come to school. read chapter eight to remember.)

i observed the both of them, as i thought, a month ago?! so he knew sungwon's coming back all along? and he didn't bother to tell me?!

"you should just visit us tomorrow, so that you can rest today since you just arrived earlier.. and we're free anytime." my brother said.

"no, it's fine. i just couldn't wait to see your sister." he chuckled, as i bit my lower lip, trying not to smile like an idiot.

freak.

why did i reacted like that?

they chit-chat for awhile until sungwon took a glance at the boys staring at us, as i instantly walked towards him.
