2nd Chances // Park Jihoon FF

027

Seoyoon's POV.

The little conversation I had with Jihoon the other day turned out to be the last one. Earlier today Mr.Kim announced the deprature of Jihoon to China which made me a little upset because he never tried to even say goodbye. I thought for a while that he and I were becoming good friends but it turned out that he didnt care as much as I did to just go off and leave without a word.

Was it something I said?
Is there anything I did wrong?

I couldnt help but think that way considering his reaction to what I told him then. He didnt look happy and the fact that he walked out on me like that, it made me overthink. Maybe I was being to open to him and maybe he didnt feel confortable about that but then again, I thought we were close enough after spending almost the night in Han River. Maybe I thought wrong, maybe I expected too much.

"You okay?" Jinyoung asked, concerned.

"Yeah, im fine" I lied with a sad smile. Although he didnt notice it much since I've been giving him that smile ever since my feelings for him became stronger.

I never thought that the day I would appreciate Jihoon as my friend, would come. I remember exactly how I felt so terrified whenever he's around and how much I would try to avoid him but his forceful-self wouldnt quit until I finally felt comfortable around him. Its been a month since him and I became closer to eachother, maybe that's why its affecting me so much that he's gone and I didnt have any idea when he'd be back.

Why do I keep thinking about Jihoon, though?
I strangely asked myself.

8 months later.
December 31, 2018.

It was the night of New Year's eve and I was preparing for dinner that me and my family decided on doing to celebrate. I was a little excited since Jinyoung would be celebrating it with us, my dad invited him. For the past 3 months, things has been going on between Jinyoung and I. No we haven't confessed to eachother, but we both knew.

*flashback.

"Seems like something's bothering you." Jinyoung concernly remarked as he sat beside me.

"Its nothing.." I continued to pretend everything was fine even if I wanted to tell him how much its been bothering me to feel this way towards him.

"Right" he simply said. The next action he took completely got me off-guard and flustered. He abruptly pulled me into a long embrace as he pushed my head deeper into his chest. Leaving me confused, I tried to pull back but he would pull me back into his chest.

"You know I care about you, right? So much."
He whispered into my ears. The words he said made my heart flutter and I finally allowed myself to feel comfortable with his touch and hugged him tight.

"I dont want anything to ever break us apart." He added, burrying his head into my neck. A stupid smile appeared on my lips and I was loving every second having him in my arms like how i've been wanting it to be. Though, I couldnt comprehend what he meant by breaking us apart but all I knew is the feeling was mutual. These past few days i've been thinking about how upset I was with Jihoon leaving and I had to admit, I was trying to avoid Jinyoung as much as I could to get rid of all the feelings I had for him.

But now, I no longer wanna get rid of it.

Ever since that day, Jinyoung had become extra sweeter to me and at times, he would hold my hand on public and walk along the roads like a normal couple. My feelings for him got even more deeper and im more than happy with what we both have right now. We may not have a label but we both know that there's only one person right for the two of us and that's eachother.
