That night, I couldn't control my feelings. Everything was coming out and since I didn't want to show anyone the state I was in, I locked myself in my room, refusing to talk to anyone. My parents and Jawahir were worried when I wouldn't talk to anyone and had missed a few days of school, but I couldn't go back yet.

I decided to work on some school work if I was going to be absence for who knew how long. Jawahir would come by my house everyday with news of what happened at school and whatever homework I had. I could tell Jawahir was curious of why I was acting this way, but I always gave her an excuse because if I had told her the truth, who knows what would've happened to Seungwoo.

And then there was Seungwoo. He was blowing up my phone with messages and was trying his best to talk to me, but I couldn't face him yet. Deep down I knew it was childish to let something as simple as this affect me: we weren't even dating. He was just a crush and like any other person, he has the right to his own feelings, even if they weren't towards me. That night, once I had made sure I was okay, prepared to head to school the next day.

The next morning, I woke up and changed into my uniform, heading down the stairs with my bag to grab a quick breakfast. My parents noticed my cheerful expression and both let out a sigh of relief as I waved goodbye to them. I headed out the door and locked it only to turn around and see Seungwoo waiting by my front yard. Once our eyes met, he ran up the steps towards me and pulled me into a tight hug.

"Are you insane!? I've been calling and texting and trying my best to get a hold of you and what do you do? Ignore me for a week!" I let out a small laugh as I hugged him tighter as an apology. "I'm sorry. I was sick and I couldn't really talk to anyone. But I'm better now." Seungwoo pulled away and eyed me suspiciously. "You sure? Like 100% sure?" I smiled brightly and nodded. "I'm sure. Besides, I have something I need to tell you."

Seungwoo's eyebrows furrowed in confusion as I gestured for us to start walking to school. As we began walking, I took a deep breath in and let everything out.  "Seungwoo, I like you. Well, to be more frank, I liked you. For a long time, I thought of you as the ideal boyfriend for me since we knew everything about each other. But then, I saw you kiss Hayoung and that's when I realized that you couldn't have those same feelings for me."

Seungwoo's eyes widened when he heard me speak those words. I could see a look of disappointment in his eyes and I reassured him. "It's not your fault Seungwoo. I can't control who I like and neither can you. I can promise you now though that those romantic feelings are pretty much gone. You're still my annoying best friend. No matter what."

By the time I had finished talking, we both had reached the school gate. Seungwoo smiled and hugged me again as I returned the gesture. "I'm sorry I couldn't return your feelings. But, I'm pretty sure there's someone we both know who is dying to take you out on a date."

We both made our way inside the school and headed towards Seungwoo's class as I looked at him, confused about his statement. "Wait, what? Who?" We stopped in front of Seungwoo's class as he put on a mishevious smile and pointed at someone. I followed his finger as it landed on Jinhyuk. My eyes widened as I looked back at Seungwoo, demanding an explanation.

Seungwoo laughed as he began to explain. "He's has a crush on you for a while. The day when you told us you had a crush, he was sad the entire day. But the same night, he texted me this long paragraph about how you joked about it and how he was so happy he still had a chance."

I stood there for a while, stunned that Jinhyuk liked someone like me. "But How could be like me? He's so charismatic and popular and not to mention, really good looking!" Seungwoo smirked as he walked towards his desk as I followed him. "So you think he's good looking, huh?" I rolled my eyes as I hit him behind his head. "Anyone with working eyes can tell you that, genius!"

"Tell you what?" I heard Jinhyuk's voice and slowly began to regret walking into the class. A mischievous glint shone in Seungwoo's eyes as he looked at Jinhyuk. "She thinks you're hot. And that anyone with working eyeballs could tell you that." Jinhyuk and I stood there frozen, both of our faces becoming extremely red. Seungwoo began to laugh as I glared at him and stormed out of the classroom.

"This is what I get for having a friend like Seungwoo! Why did I even like him?" I began to mutter under my breath when I heard someone call me. I turned around and saw Jinhyuk. He pulled me aside and smiled softly. "I wanted to here it from you since I don't trust that big idiot back there. Is what Seungwoo said true? Do you really think that?"

I suddenly became flustered , not knowing what to say. Jinhyuk could see I was hesitating and was soon starting to regret his question. I took a deep breath in and decided to tell the truth. "Yes. It's true. I wouldn't use the words Seungwoo used but I do think that you're handsome and so much more."

Jinhyuk's eyes lit up as he began to smile uncontrollably. "Seriously!? Oh my gosh, this is the best day ever! You have know idea how long I've liked you. I always thought you would go for someone else and not me but I'm so happy it is me." I laughed as I saw Jinhyuk ramble on and on as the morning bell rung.

Jinhyuk groaned when he heard the sound as he turned to face me. "Listen, I have to head to class but do you want to have lunch together? Without Seungwoo? I feel like everything I know about you is through him but I'd like to know everything about you from you."

I smiled brightly and nodded, agreeing to the lunch date. Jinhyuk returned my smile and waved goodbye as I walked into my class. I sat in my seat as the teacher began class, not like I could much pay attention after what happened.

This technically isn't an X1 imagine, BUT, I really needed to write a second part in Jinhyuk's favour.
