Dating An Idol

Chapter 4

I wake up, realising I had the best sleep ever. I haven't slept this good for a long time.

I look down at the empty bed, did he leave already?

I got up from my bed and step out of my room, "good morning.." Min-Seok comes out of the bathroom, shirtless.

Oh! Daebak.

I put my hand over my eyes, "morning." I heard him chuckle, "I will make breakfast." Min-Seok says. "You can take your hand off now."

I put my hand down and walk into the bathroom. He looks so handsome.

(╥﹏╥)

It feels like a dream.

I tie my black hair up in a ponytail and sat down at the dining table in jeans and a sweater.

I look at the food he cooked, scrambled eggs, fried hotdogs and pancakes.

"Thank you for the food." I shyly said, not looking him in the eyes. The image of his shirtless body is stuck in my head and I can't look at him the same way.

"Did you sleep well?" I ask politely, "no." He ask. I look up at him , surprised.

"Do you know you snore?" I stare at him with a hotdog in my mouth, I do not snore... Do I?

Min-Seok laughs, "I am just joking. I slept well."

I laugh along too, not knowing why.

Min-Seok and I walked towards my school, we try to avoid the crowd as much as possible.

If I was seen around with him, people will wonder why too.

I bid goodbye to him when I arrive opposite of my school. He's coming by after my school so we would eat dinner together.

He's around me a lot, it scares me because what if I just get used to it?

"Chae-Rin ah!" Ji-Hyo runs up to me, panicking. "It's bad, Chan-Yeol ssi said you are a psycho—"

"What?" I furrow my eyebrows at her.

"And you were the one that cheated on him." Ji-Hyo finishes her sentence. "It's really bad."

I took out my phone and realise I have been receiving messages from Chan-Yeol's friends and my teammates.

'How could you do it?'

'Is it true?'

'What a slut.'

"What do I do now...?" I mutter out. "Where is he?" I ask Ji-Hyo, she looks into my eyes. "No, you're not going to find him." Ji-Hyo says sternly.

"Chae-Rin," my teammate, Hani comes up to me. "What is going on, why is he threatening you like that?"

I have told my teammates about him, they don't know the whole story but, they know about him.

"I don't know." I muttered.

"Let's just go to class." Ji-Hyo suggested. I nodded and made my way to class.

The moment I step in, people started whispering and even shouting at me.

"He cheated on me." I stated, "yah, don't say anything." Ji-Hyo frowns at my actions.

"How many guys did you sleep with?" One of Chan-Yeol's friend ask out loud.

"I thought she slept with you." One of the girls say, "over my dead body." I spat.

The whole lecture room went crazy, Ji-Hyo just sigh.

Chan-Yeol steps into the class and sits beside Hye-Yeon.

"What is going on?" Ji-Hyo stares at the two. I stare at the back of their heads.

She wouldn't do it right... To me? Only Ji-Hyo and Hye-Yeon knows the whole story. They were the ones that came over to my house to comfort me.

"She told him." My eyes fill up with tears, "what a bitch." Ji-Hyo says aloud. The lecturer turn to look at her, giving her a stern look.

During lunch, I barely ate. I gave my food to Hani who's accompanying me for the day.

"What's up!" Hye-Yeon sits down next to me, "are you an idiot?" Ji-Hyo glares at her.

"What?" Hye-Yeon looks around the table innocently. "You can't sit with us." Hani says as she sucks in her cheek.

"What's wrong...?" Hye-Yeon looks taken aback.

"You." I answered her question, "I see where our friendship stands... Boys over friends."

Hye-Yeon just laugh, "what are you talking about?"

"Is the new guy you were talking about the other day... Chan-Yeol?" Ji-Hyo starts to realise.

"What a bitch!" Ji-Hyo slams her chopsticks on the table. I stare at her confused, "she told me she met this guy at the bar and she gave him a hickey." Ji-Hyo explains.

The next day I met Chan-Yeol, he has a big hickey on his neck. "Yah—"

"What? Don't you have any shame? How can you do this to your friend who knew you for years?!" Hani got so agitated that she stood up.

People in the cafeteria turns to look at us, "who do you think you are? How can you come to this table and ask what's wrong?! What's wrong with you?" Hani screams at her.

Hye-Yeon runs off crying, Chan-Yeol quickly running after her.

Looks like he didn't cheat on me with one girl, it was two. Maybe more.

Min-Seok appears at the same spot where we said goodbye. This time he has a car.

I walk over to him, "you don't have to get out of the car." I say to him, rushing to get into his car.

"Why? You don't want to be seen around with me?" Min-Seok buckles his seatbelt in.

"You're an idol." I reminded him, Min-Seok simply smile and drove off.

I didn't ask him where we are going but it's far from the city and far from my home.

"Umin ssi—"

"Did you just call me Umin?" Min-Seok cuts me off, "is there a problem?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Yes, call me Oppa." I chuckled lightly, "what did you wanted to say?" Min-Seok ask, stopping the car outside a restaurant.

"Have you ever fallen in love before?"

"Of course." Min-Seok answers, "how was it like?"

"Just like first love should be... Painful." Min-Seok sighs. "You gave everything and you want it to last forever but... They expect the same." Min-Seok's voice suddenly went lower.

"It makes you wonder if you could ever fall in love again... Right?" I ask, there was a moment of silence in the car.

"You will fall in love again." Min-Seok nods his head, "have you?" I ask.

"Yes." Min-Seok briefly answers and step out of the car.

"Who is it?" I ask when he open the passenger seat door.

Min-Seok looks down at me, waiting for me to get out while I am waiting for his answer.

"You won't know her." He simply answer.
