E-mails

Narration

She didn't come. Namjoon felt like an idiot. There are many people out there that could be the person e-mailing him and he wasn't even sure if the hints were really true.

He waited till 7 for the girl but saw no sign of her so he stood up and turned to walk home. Feeling a little bit sad until a hand held unto his jacket to stop him. "Wait, don't go." His head swiftly turned around to lock eyes on the person holding unto him.

Shocked he asked, "Are you IAmThomas?" He couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Wendy. The girl he had been dreaming to be with these past weeks.

"No, that's my friend she asked me to come here. Are you IDestroy?" When he heard this he got sad but his smile came back at the thought that his crush was talking to him.

"Yeah, I'm IDestroy. Did she ask you to come here?"

"She had lots of thing to do, especially with their move and all so she asked me for a favor to come here in her place," Wendy said as she gestured to the place they were standing on. Awkward. That was the only word he could describe their conversation. "Sorry I arrived late. She messaged me just a few moments ago as I was walking home so I hurriedly went here."

"Have you eaten dinner?"

"Actually, no."

"Then let's go then I'll send you home." He held her hand and tugged her to the nearest restaurant selling meat.

"Wow! This is nice!" Wendy exclaimed as they ate their food. "Opps. Sorry about that." She was now covering her mouth using hands indicating that she was a bit embarrassed.

"Are you really friends with Jihyo?" Namjoon asked his crush. He knows that this was not the time but he was dying of curiosity at the moment that he forgot that this should be the time to learn more about his crush and to improve her impression of him.

"Why did you assume that it's her? It could be anyone but her?"

"Yeah, so who's this friend of your anyway?"

"I won't tell. I promised her. Can I ask a question?" She placed her chopsticks down and faced him, a serious look on her face.

"Yeah, sure." He also placed his chopsticks down and faced her.

"I heard you had a crush on me. Is that true?" Namjoon's face heated up.

"How did you get a hold of that information?"

"My friend told me. Why? Is it true."

"No comment." The air around them felt even more awkward than before.

After eating they left the shop in silence and Namjoon hailed a cab for Wendy.

"Bye. Thanks for accompanying me," he said as he held the door for her to enter in.

"Yeah, thanks for the meal. I hope to treat you next time." Wendy closed the door of the cab and it took off. 

Namjoon stood there for a moment, thinking. Maybe she set me up with Wendy so we could get to know each other more. That thought ran in his head as he watched the cab drive out. If she did then this should not be what happens. "WAIT!" Ran with all his might.

Wendy turned her head to see Namjoon running up to the cab so she told the driver to stop. The cab pulled over and Namjoon opened the door huffing. Who wouldn't? He ran 2 blocks chasing the cab.

"About earlier." he said between breaths. "I like you." He ran after he kissed her forehead and closed the door.

"Kids..." the driver commented as he shook his head when he looked at the stunned, blushing girl using his mirror. He started his cab up again and continued on his way while Wendy was still shocked until the driver informed her that they had arrived. She thanked the driver as she paid.

"Welcome home," Joohyun greeted her from the coach.

"What are you watching?" 

"The Notebook, wanna join me?" Joohyun paused the movie and looked at Wendy. 

"No thanks."

"Why are you cheeks flushed?" As Wendy heard this she automatically covered her cheeks.

"Where are the others?"

"Karaoke." Joohyun turned her attention to the T.V. and continued watching the movie.

"OK, if you need me I'll just be in my room."
