Perfectly Wrong (Chanyeol × Reader)

25. It Ain't Me

                       YOUR   P.O.V.

I took a shower & felt awfully fresh, my tiredness was gone. All I wanted now was some food & my bed. Then I can sleep peacefully for I don't know how long. But right now, I have something more important to do. I have to clear things with Chanyeol. I don't want him to misunderstand me & form an opinion about me. I run my fingers through my wet hair & put on my night suit & pajama.

Before I could leave the room, I felt my phone buzz a couple of times. I open it to see if there are any important messages.

I opened my Twitter & all I could see was people talking about Chanyeol & Daisy.

What..? Chanyeol is here with me then what happened suddenly? What's there about him & Daisy?

I scrolled down & down to find an official statement made by Chanyeol's agency about his dating rumour with Daisy.

"Chanyeol of EXO & Daisy of Mystics have good feelings towards each other."

My heart hammered inside of me.

So they're really dating each other.

I read some other tweets from fans. Many were supporting it & were happy about an official statement being released. While others were hating on the couple & talking shit. 

I couldn't find courage to read anymore about this issue so I turned off my phone.

With emotions running high, I steadied myself as I headed towards the living room.

As I came out of my room, I already spotted Chanyeol sitting on the couch.

I made my way towards him & perched on the couch.   

His eyes were cold & his hands were knotted in his lap.

I felt him take a deep sigh as he turned to me.

My heart pounded relentlessly against my rib cage as Chanyeol's gaze turned serious.

I sucked in a breath & held it, not knowing what was going to come out of his mouth.

"I need to tell you something.." he said with a serious tone in his voice.

Without saying a word, I nod.

"I.. um, I'm dating Daisy. It's been 2 months that we've been dating. You know there were pictures of us hanging out together but there was no confirmation of us dating but my agency just released an official statement confirming the news. I hope you still trust me & we can be friends. I hope it doesn't change anything between us. I still wanna visit you & spend time with you." He says

I shifted my eyes from the floor & tried to smile at Chanyeol, but my lips weren't listening.

I got up from my place & came in my bedroom. I take out the house keys from my bag & return to the living room.

I wanted to reach out & comfort him, but my feet remained glued to the floor.

I take out my hand towards chanyeol with keys placed in my palm.

"Here.." I say with a smile on my face to look as convincing as I could.

"What is this?" Chanyeol says with his eyebrows knitted in confusion.

"The keys to my house. You can use them to come here anytime you want." I say

"I don't understand?" Chanyeol responds

"See, you said you hope you dating Daisy doesn't affect our friendship that's why I'm giving you the keys. As a proof that it hasn't changed anything between us. You can still come here, hang out with me or rest here in the house. You're still the same Chanyeol to me. I still respect you the same & my feelings for you are still the same. Yeah?" I explained

"But you'll be here then why give me the keys?" Chanyeol asks

"Um I was thinking of looking for a job that's why. Incase I get one & you visit me at a time when I'm at work then you can come inside & make yourself feel like home." I exclaimed

"Oh.. I understand. All the best! I hope you find a good job." He smiles

"Thank you Chanyeol." I nod as I get seated next to him on the couch.

"You know everytime I come here, it makes me feel good. Everytime I'm with you it makes my heart feel peaceful. Being with you makes all my worries & discomforts go away. And I don't want to lose you or our friendship.  I know it might sound weird coming from me because we haven't known each other for long or talked much about us but I can tell you're a nice person & you'd never hurt anyone on purpose. I really like you & respect you. I always want you in my life. And I hope you want me in yours too." Chanyeol says as he took my hand & gave it a little squeeze.

I flinched as Chanyeol took my hand & gave it a little squeeze.

"I do want you in my life. And you don't have to explain me anything. If you feel good by being here then you're always welcome. You can think of this place as your own home & come here anytime you want." I felt an urge to look up at him. I wanted to look at him closely, I wanted to count the colours in his eyes; study him.

Chanyeol licked his lips, I could tell he was nervous.

He clearly noticed me staring at the lips as he cleared his throat, smiling into the ground.
