My guardian (Twice ChaeyoungxFemale Reader)

Chapter 17: A Bad Situation

Y/n POV

"So Y/n, what do you think is the best meal here?" Chaeyoung asked me.

"Oh...ummmm.....maybe that curry and some rice balls." I said randomly picking some dishes.

"Thanks." She said cheerfully. "What do the rest of you want to order?"

"We've already ordered Chaeyoung." Momo said raising her eyebrow at her. "We were waiting for you."

"Oh...ummmm....so I guess these are what you ordered?" Alex, our waitor, said.

"Yep." Chaeyoung said grinning.

"Okay then. Your order will be out soon." Alex said and walked away.

I sighed and slumped sightly in my seat.

Momo and Sana looked at me in concern.

"Ummmm....." Nayeon said glancing at me. "I think I need to go to the restroom for a while."

I looked at her in surprise as she got up and left.

"Me too." Sana said getting up and dragging Momo who protested that she didn't need to use the restroom.

"Hey, where did everyone go?" Chaeyoung asked looking up from her phone.

"They wanted to use the restroom." I said shifted a little uncomfortably in my seat.

"Oh! Are you okay?" Chaeyoung said sitting next to me.

"Y-Yeah." I said cursing myself mentally for stuttering.

"I don't mean just the seat Y/n." Chaeyoung said looking at me straight in the eyes.

"Wh-what do you mean?" I asked.

Where did that shy and blushing girl go? I thought as she leaned forward until our faces were inches apart.

"You seemed really sad ever since our conversation earlier at the art store with your friends. Tell me why." She said her eyes hardening.

"I-I......I was remembering s-something troubling from my past." I stammered as I made an excuse.

"What is it? I'm here for you if you need someone to lean on." Chaeyoung said her eyes softening and leaned forward slightly.

I gulped before glancing around the room.

Where are they? I thought to myself.

"Uhhh.....well...I w-was trapped i-in a jar for sometime a-and whenever I s-see a j-jar. I g-get kind of scared." I stammered and I felt my face heating up.

Am I blushing? I thought. I haven't blushed in a long time.

"Really?" Chaeyoung said softly before wrapping her arms around me and snuggling her face in my neck.

I froze.

We've hugged before but this hug seemed a lot more different from the others.

Also, why did I lie?! Why can't I just admit my feelings? I thought as I hugged her back.

"I'm sorry then that I made you see all those jars." Chaeyoung muttered into my neck.

I shivered slightly when I felt her breath hitting my neck.

Truth be told. I do have a slight phobia of jars but I have mostly gotten over that because of the girl hugging me right now. I thought to myself.

You know what. I'm confessing. I can't hold it in anymore. I thought and steeled myself.

"Hey Chaeyoung?" I said.
