If You And Me (JoyHope)

"Thank you for waiting, oppa!"

All dressed up in white shirt under red checkered overall skirt, white socks, red shoes, and hair done in pigtails, little Sooyoung flashes her 10.000 Watt smile to her 2 years older best friend, Hoseok. Hoseok almost snorts when he notices something's missing from Sooyoung's school look.

"Is that all, Sooyoung-ah? Are you sure you're not forgetting something?"

Sooyoung starts scanning her clothes, hands, and feet. What could it be, something that she forgets? Sooyoung turns only to find her mother holding up her school bag and 2 lunch boxes. She shyly giggles.

"Sooyoung was really excited to see you again, Hoseok. Here, Aunty made you a special lunch, I hope you'll like it."

"Ah, thank you, Aunty. I'll eat well." In his head, he's trying to guess what's inside the lunch box. But in his heart, he knows he will eat delicious food this afternoon. He's all giddy as he imagines the jealous face of his soccer team everytime Sooyoung's mom packs him lunch.

"Then, we'll be off to school." Hoseok bows, while Sooyoung happily waves her hand. "Bye mom!"

With one hand holding a soccer ball, Hoseok holds Sooyoung's hand in his other hand. Their school is not far away from where they live. Sooyoung won't get any trouble going to school on her own, but for Hoseok, it's his duty to make sure his little Sooyoung is safe. As for Sooyoung, spending time with her favorite oppa is like the first bite of strawberry cheesecake after a long day at school. Simply the best.

"Soo, oppa is going to play soccer for a while after school. It's just one game, it won't be long. Will you wait for me?"

"Of course!" After three seconds she decides to add, "Oppa fighting!"

"If we win, I'll buy you strawberry milk, okay?"

"Promise?" "Promise."

Later that afternoon, from the side of the field, Sooyoung catches a sight of Hoseok warming up. Hoseok throws his gaze around until he meets Sooyoung's eyes. He waves and Sooyoung does the same. His friends see a chance to tease him.

"Wifey, wish me luck."

"Hubby, I'll be waiting."

Jongin and Jackson talk in high pitched voice. They hug each other and pretend to kiss with loud smooching sound, until they earn a smack from Hoseok.

"Ah seriously, Hoseok," Jackson says in between his laugh, "you and Sooyoung look cute together."

"I think you two will get married one day," Jongin adds, "Mark my words. If Sooyoung is really your future wife, you'll have to invite us to your wedding."

Hoseok's ears turn red. "You both better worry about next week's history exam more than whom I'll marry in the future. Also, I'll invite you anyway. Aren't we best friends?"

Jongin and Jackson look at each other and say, "Naaaah, only invite us when you marry Sooyoung."

"Aish these kids..."

The game is exciting. Though Sooyoung doesn't understand soccer at all, she cheers when Hoseok gets the ball. She jumps when Hoseok scores a goal. She concludes that Hoseok's team wins from their loud screaming and chaotic group hug. Drenched in sweat, Hoseok approaches Sooyoung who's smiling like she's the winner.

"Oppa wins! Yay!"

"Thank you for cheering for us, Soo. Oppa needs to change clothes, Sooyoung will wait, right?"

Sooyoung nods obediently. She watches Hoseok running toward Jongin and Jackson who, again, are teasing him. She's wondering if Hoseok is sick since his face is all red. Or is it because he runs a lot? She shrugs.
