Secret (Stray Kids Jisung)

[16]

"Really? Your going to go to a... College?? In Korea?" Jisung spits out in Korean, probably not knowing how to say it in English. "For real?"

You nod, then realize the Jisung couldn't see you over a phone call. "Yeah. It's called 'Seoul Institute of the Arts.' Pretty cool, am I right?"

"How come you never told me that your were trying to go to that school?" Jisung says, again in Korean. "I could've helped you get a scholarship or something."

You let out a breathy laugh. "Well- I kind of got a scholarship. Not really good one, but it's still a scholarship." You tilt your head to the side and pop your neck. "It's way better than paying full price, though. Could you imagine how much money that would be?"

"Colleges these days are way too much money, I couldn't imagine how much it would cost." He sighs out. You had assumed that he stopped trying to speak in English by now. "And what was that cracking sound just now? It was super loud."

"That was my neck."

"Did you, like... break it? I think your neighbors across the street probably heard that too."

"I don't think I broke it..."

"You don't know?" Jisung says in amazement. "Wow," he starts laughing. "' I think I might of broken my neck. I can't really tell though,'" he mimics you.

"Hey! I don't know about you, but the boat loads of books my teachers gave me in grade school ruined me," you try defending your self. "It's insane! You can't run in the hallways, but the the teachers have this huge paper cutting thingies in the back of their classrooms. You could cut off a cows head with those things," you sigh. " It's funny because we can't run with safety scissors, but yet they give you a heap load of books, so that you have back problems before the age of twenty-five."

"Well. I think just about every country gives kids one too many books-" Jisung pauses, as if he's listening to something very closely. "Is he..." You can hear Jisung cover his mic with his hand. "Yah! Yongbok!" He screams, muffled, but still eligible. "Is someone singing in the bathroom?"

"Yeah, it's Jeongin." You hear another muffled voice on the other side of the line. "He's probably taking a sh-" the person on the other line coughs. "Fat poop."

"I really wanted to know that didn't I." Jisung says sarcastically.

"You asked."

"No, I didn't. Why would I-"

"You asked," the voice on the other line chuckles out.

"No-"

"Yeah, you did-"

"I'm still here, just in case you forgot guys," You say, trying to speak loud enough so that the other person could hear you.

"OMG, is Jisung talking to his girlfri-"

"Yeah, sorry about that Y/N."

There a short awkward silence, for no reason at all. You thought it was because neither of you knew what to say next.

The awkward silence really bothered Jisung, though. He knew exactly what he needed to say, but he just didn't want to say it. He would do anything, just for those words not to come out of his mouth.

Felix coughs, because the fact that it was so quiet probably bothered him too.

"...So..." Jisung says in a small voice.

"So... um... Do you enjoy watching horror movies at all?" 

"Horror movies?" The boy shudders at the thought of horror movies. He loathes them, with every ounce of blood in his body. Most people knew the he hated them, but he always claimed otherwise. "They're okay. Why ask?"

"I wanna whatch IT:Chapter Two."

'Are you crazy,' is what Jisung really wanted to say, but he stops himself before the words can spill out of his mouth. "Um... With me, I'm assuming... Right?"

"Yes."

"Aw, is it because your scared the of the big, scary, clown?" 

You paused for a second before answering, knowing that anything you say would probably go against you. So, you decided to say something that he didn't expect you to say, in the tiniest voice that you could use: "Um... Yeah..."

"I'm not surprised. You seem like the kind of person that would get scared-"

"You'll protect me, right?"

"Y-yeah... Wait, do y-you mean.."

One more point for me, Jisung.
