Xiaojun's POV

It's still early but y/n runs in the room and holds my shoulders shaking me. "Why are you shaking me? You scare me." She stops and sits down. "You're sitting next to the new Little Mermaid!" She says excited. "Are you for real? You got the main role? Congratulations!" We both smile. "You deserve it, you worked hard for that role. You'll be amazing on stage!" The last weeks she's been practicing and rehearsing. She always asked me to help her and learn her text. She auditioned last week and finally we know who she's going to be.

"Wait does this mean you'll be always be busy with the musical?" I realised it. Just like every year she'll be rehearsing with the other students. But this time she has the lead role, that means she'll be even busier. I'm not gonna see her the next coming weeks. "I'll always make time for you, but of course I can't skip any practices." I sigh. "Promise you'll make time for your best friend." She laughs and locks her pinky with mine. "I promise. For real."

"Do I see you at lunch?" I asked her before we both went to our classes. "I'm sorry. I can't." I sigh, I knew this'd happen. "Again? I thought you promised me to make time for me." I do have other friends but they're not the same as y/n. I know her since the beginning. We're closer than anyone else! We do everything together, except acting in musicals. "Friday, after school. I'll come with you to whatever you want to do at home." She waves and leaves to her classroom. I walk to mine and sit down on a chair.

"Is it y/n again?" Hendery asks and I just nod. "She promised to come to my place Friday. She either way cancel our plans or she wants me to help her with her texts and singing." I lay my head on the table. "Don't get me wrong, I'm happy she got the role and that she does what she loves the most but." Hendery finishes my sentence. "You miss her. Just hold on for a little while. Before you know the musical is over." I nod my head. "You're right, it's not long anymore."

"Like promised I'm coming with you." Y/n was next to me when we walked to my house. "You're coming to the musical right?" She asked. "Of course! I don't want to miss anything." She was happy to hear it. "Just 1 more question." I nod and listen to her. "Do you please want to rehearse with me, just one time. After that we'll do everything you want." I took a few seconds before answering. "Will you stop talking about it after that?" She nods knowing it starts annoying me. "Okay I'll do it."

"I just need to practice these last scenes." She shows where I have to start. She knows almost everything already. I did the lines of the prince. Y/n was saying one of her lines, I already read what would happen next. After the next line there's a kiss. "And then the kiss." Y/n tried getting out of it but I did it anyway. "I really like you, I hope you know." Our foreheads still touching. I looked into her eyes, my heart going crazy from what I just did. "That's not in the script." Y/n laughs. "I'm writing my own." I wink and she kissed me again. "I like you too."

We laid down on the couch watching some random movie that was playing. "Dejun, I'm home!" Mom yells thinking I'm in my room. "Oh you're here. With y/n, hey how are you?" This was awkward. Mom saw us grow up together and now she sees how y/n is in my arms like this. "I'm great, thank you." She answered. "How is it going with the musical?" Mom please leave us, I thought. She talks to us with her sweet voice, like we're still kids. "It's going amazing!" Y/n answers. "I'm making dinner, you like to stay and eat with us?" Y/n just nods before mom leaves to the kitchen.

"Want to go to my room? I'm sure she's coming back to interrupt us." She shook her head. "It's like always, why'd we go away? Are you embarrassed? After all these years you still get shy, how cute." I shook my head. "Come here already." I take her in my arms again as we continue cuddling on the couch and watch the movie. "Wait a second. You're going to kiss another guy, in front of so many people?" I sit up again. "It's not a real kiss. No feelings, just acting." I shook my head. "Still, some random guy is going to kiss you." Y/n shook her head. "Don't worry too much, I still love you the most." She kissed me again.
