"i won't say it again, Yeonjun" Soobin rolled his doe eyes
"oh, come on, Soobinnie!" i cooed, pinching his fluffy cheeks "it's been weeks now, i can't take it off from my head!"
we both walked slowly into the school hallway, hand in hand, and of course gaining some glances here and there. Soobin tightens the grip on our interlocked fingers, and blushed at the people's stares.
it wasn't like we were together as a couple officially, but we were spending a lot of time alone and getting to know each other more and more.
being honest, it felt like i knew Soobin my entire life and it was natural and smooth as if our connection was meant to be. in other words, it was oddly comfortable.
"o-oh, yeah? then you better try harder" he rebated
"when you became such a party popper, baby?" i pouted at him, which only get the boy to widen his eyes, and well, surely not the reaction i was expecting
"b-baby?" he stared at me, flustered "hm, i-i..."
"that's right, you're my baby" i smirked at him, making the boy grimace at my words "then be a good baby and do as i say, huh?"
"hum, s-stop it" he demanded, not leaving his eyes off the ground
"stop what, baby?" i brushed my hair back with the free hand and looked over the blushing mess walking beside me "you have to say it..." i clicked my tongue and he gasped
Soobin's trembling lips showed me he was really trying to speak, but the red color on his face showed off otherwise, like he was dealing with so much of an embarrassment.
"i feel like i released a beast. a very flirtatious beast, actually" he breathed deeply before staring at me "would you please stop calling me baby, Yeonjunnie hyung?" he pouted, showing me his pleading like eyes, i coughed still unable to turn away from the sight
oh shit, this can't be aegyo... it's 8 o'clock in the morning, how dare him?
"oh, fuck" i cussed, stepping back "y-you see, i gotta go, i got this... this, um... important geometry report to finish!"
"oh, is that so?" he tilted his head, not buying none of my words "well, you better get moving then, Yeonjunnie!"
"you little-" i narrowed my eyes at his smirk, does he even knows who he's playing with? "ugh, i'll see you at lunch" i rapidly pecked his lips, and started to walk away from the boy who stood there, chuckles escaping his mouth lowly
what are we now? i thought while making my way to the first lecture of the day
✶✶✶
"saying you're taking Soobin hyung away it's an understatement," Kai glanced at us while munching on his burger "i can't believe you did this to me!" he yelled, getting me to groan
"damn, are you trying to fuck up my eardrums?" i growled, as caressing Soobin's hand with my thumb "Soobinnie, tell your child to calm down, or i'll make him" the said boy giggled, rolling his eyes afterwards.
"are you guys seeing what's happening here? i mean, is he allowed to do this with me?" the youngest of us yelped, while tugging at my poor friend's sleeve "Beomgyu hyung, tell him he's not!"
"and there we go again..." Beomgyu muttered, annoyed "stop it Yeonjun hyung, you know how much of a spoiled brat Huening can be at times"
"all of you are truly hurting my feelings this morning," he gestured towards his chest, dramatically "except for you, Taehyun, you're not"
"hum, w-what?" the brunette quirked an eyebrow at Hueningkai, being snapped out of his daze "were you talking to me?"
we all laugh loudly at the two youngsters whose bickering seemed as funny as their pissed off expressions.
a lot of things had changed ever since Soobin entered into our lives, not forgetting to bring Huening and his dolphin like voice along with him, and may i add: none of us expected that shy and adorable kid to actually be this chaotic loud brat.
but even so, by that time of the month i was already getting used to their friendship and understanding how much of a good effect it had on Soobin. it finally had sink in that he was not a menace at all.
there were moments where i couldn't help but roll my eyes till the back of my head at how annoying Huening would be, but it was kinda funny yet necessary somehow, and it was actually amusing how he was pretty serious when needed or when talking about stuff only he would have the knowledge of.
back in our table, i couldn't contain a chuckle while watching how Soobin unsuccessfully tried to stop both his best friend and Taehyun to argue with each other.
"thank you, Soobin" Beomgyu blurted out
"uh? Taehyun and Hyuka haven't really stop fighting yet, i am-" the male was cut off by my friend shaking his head "then what?"
"it's been a month since you came around," Beomgyu started, playing nonchalantly with his hoodie strings "i'm very thankful to be able to see Yeonjun hyung smiling this often, and happy to know it's because of you"
"w-woah, where all of this came from?" i scratched the back of my neck, smiling awkwardly before noticing Soobin's panicked eyes
"this was just begging to be taken off my chest," he shrugged, looking at us sweetly "besides, i bet everyone in this table can relate"
"speak for yourself, he's stealing away my best frien-ouch!" Hueningkai whimpered after being elbowed by Taehyun, who gave him a glare
"we're all happy for you, hyungs!" the boy said between his teeth, while gripping onto Kai's shoulders, who forced a smile towards us
"h-hum... i should be the one thanking you guys" Soobin said, smiling heartily at the youngest, with his dimples popping up "come to think of it, Yeonjunnie have been helping me a lot since we met, and so did all of you"
"look at my Soobinnie being so cute!" i cooed while interlocking our fingers
"ew, are you guys really doing this? in front of my sandwich?" Kai rolled his eyes, playfully this time.
"you just need to find yourself someone to date and it shows" Taehyun said bluntly, getting all of us to laugh, well, except from Huening who started to argue with him once more
but it all felt right, even if it wasn't exactly what i was expecting when i first started the year. if someone told me the pain i was experiencing some time ago would bring me to this place, with a boy i'm helplessly in love with and a table of friends who like me for me, i would've probably laughed at them.
and to me, back in that time, it didn't matter how and why it all happened so suddenly, all that matters was Soobin, and even now, it still is.
