Troublemakers

Chapter 20

Jinhwan's POV

"You did what?!" I looked shocked at Yunhyeong. He just told us he was fucking dating Chanwoo for a God damn month without telling us. Jiwon looked shocked as well.
When the hell did that happen? How did this happen?
Why were we not aware of this?

"I'm sorry!" He apologizes, "it... It just happened.. I'm giving him a chance..." Yungyeong looked down, looking guilty.
He better feel guilty. Hiding this fact from us for such a long time. Seein Chanwoo behind our backs...
I know he was forced to spend time with him because of the drama he was in, but when did that turn into something he actually wanted to do?

"Giving him.. - he doesn't deserve a fucking chance!" I protested. This is Chanwoo we're talking about. Did Yungyeong already forget all the teasing and abuse he went through because of this guy? All the times we found him crying in an empty classroom or the bathroom?

"He does!" Yunhyeong insisted. "Listen... for the past month he tried his best, really..."

"How you allowed it to happen?!" I looked at Donghyuk annoyed. This guy should know better than anyone that having Yungyeong be with Chanwoo could end terribly.

"Hey, I found out just yesterday" Donghyuk raised his hands in defense. "We talked about it-"

"More like you yelled at me..." Yunhyeong mumbled.

"-and I decided to let it be. We'll plan Chanwoo's death and funeral together later."

I sighed deeply. "I just can't believe it, what's next? Junhoe is also a misunderstood guy?"

"Well..." Jiwon sighed, "apparently he is."

"No. You don't get to start with this shit again." I said annoyed.

"Wait, what did we miss?" Donghyuk asked as he and Yunhyeong frowned.

"Before Junhoe's Halloween party, Jiwon talked with Hanbin who said that 'Junhoe is not a bad guy' and that 'he actually cares for me' and... What else was there?"

"That he simply wants your attention." Jiwon sighed.

"Yeah, this shit."

"Jay, Hanbin isn't a liar. I'm telling you, with the painful look he had, something surely happened to Junhoe."

"I don't fucking care. I only see the jerk side of him. The side which won't stop harassing me and even went as far as blackmail me to come to a stupid party. This guy can't be good! He can't be trusted!"
He just can't be. I'll never forget how broken and pathetic I felt when I found out about his real personality.
I simply was a fucking amusement in his eyes. A new guy that was amusing to hang around with.

"Did he really tell someone even though you didn't come to the party? Has he ever tried to force himself on you? C'mon Jay, you simply jumped to conclusions without giving him even one chance!"

Not giving him a chance?
I gave him a chance, and he ruined his fucking chance.
I don't understand why he deserves another one.
I trusted him, I actually started to like him, I felt comfortable around him and all I wanted was to see the way he smiles at me...

God, just remembering my pathetic and naive self back at 9th grade made me feel sick.
To think once all I cared about is to see his smile.

"Okay, just because Hanbin is fucking you now, it doesn't mean the world is rainbows and fucking butterflies. Chanwoo might still be a dick, Minho is still an asshole, and Junhoe isn't any better. If he's such a 'good guy' why won't you fucking date him?!"

Jiwon gave me a pissed look before walking away.

"That was harsh, man." Donghyuk said. "He's your best friend and you just talked shit about him like he's nothing but a stranger. Even I didn't yell like this at Yunhyeong. If Jiwon is trying so hard to make you think about it, it means he really has a point and you simply too stubborn to see it. You need to get your shit together and fast. Let's go Yoyo."
