Heartbreak Boy~ Moonbae

7

I stood on stage, waiting for the music to start, I relaxed my body and breathed. I heard the guitar start and looked at my friends, specifically Jacob. I gripped the microphone tight and started to sing.

"You call me up,
It's like a broken record
Saying that your heart hurts
That you never get over him getting over you,
And you end up crying
And I end up lying,
'Cause I'm just a sucker for anything that you do" I could see everyone intensely looking at me, some confused by the English lyrics but enjoying the song anyway, others knew this song and just listened.

"And when the phone call finally ends
You say, 'Thanks for being a friend,'
And we're going in circles again and again" Jacob stared back confused as I acted out the song.

"I dedicate this song to you,
The one who never sees the truth,
That I can take away your hurt, heartbreak girl.
Hold you tight straight through the day light,
I'm right here, when you gonna realize
That I'm your cure, heartbreak girl?"

Now comes the second verse, it happened relatively recently so I hope Jacob would connect everything soon.

"I bite my tongue but I wanna scream out
You could be with me now
But I end up telling you what you wanna hear,
But you're not ready and it's so frustrating
He treats you so bad and I'm so good to you it's not fair.
And when the phone call finally ends
You say, 'I'll call you tomorrow at 10,'
And I'm stuck in the friend zone again and again" He looked shocked, and i continued.

"I dedicate this song to you,
The one who never sees the truth,
That I can take away your hurt, heartbreak girl.
Hold you tight straight through the day light,
I'm right here, when you gonna realize
That I'm your cure, heartbreak girl?" I walked around a bit, trying to take my eyes off Jacob.

"I know someday its gonna happen
And you finally forget the day you met him
Sometimes you're so close to your confession,
I gotta get it through your head
That you belong with me instead." I sighed.

Now or Never.

"I dedicate this song to you,
The one who never sees the truth,
That I can take away your hurt, heartbreak girl.
Hold you tight straight through the day light,
I'm right here, when you gonna realize
That I'm your cure, heartbreak girl" I walk down the stairs and make my way to my where friends sit.

"I dedicate this song to you,
the one that never sees the truth,
that I can take away your hurt, heartbreak boy,
hold you straight through the daylight,
I'm right here when you gonna realize,
that I'm your cure, heartbreak boy?"  at this point I'm right in front of Jacob.

"what?"

The music stops and everything is silent, I drop my hands to my side still holding the mic. Then, loud claps and cheers fill my ears and I'm pulled into a group hug, I stand my ground and stare at Jacob whos frozen in his spot.

"Jacob Bae, I've seen you get hurt for months by one person. I've been there for you over those months, It's been years since I realized i liked you, so here I am. Telling you. Asking you to be mine." I broke free from Hyunjoon's (him and Jaehyun came just for the show) death grip as everyone falls silent again.

He stares back at me before looking around and fidgeting with his fingers. His head drops for a while and I started to lose hope until he looks me in the eyes with the brightest smile.

"Kev, remember that walk we took three weeks ago? Remember when I told you I liked someone that's not him? Do you know who that person is?" I shake my head, he sighs before grabbing my face and placing his lips on mine, he pulled away quickly, "It was you"

I smile back and pull him close, putting my head on his shoulder. Eric starts crying and we open our arms to him, he runs in and bawls. Looking at everyone else I whisper a small, "come on".

So there we are, eleven boys crying while piled on top of each other, we must look crazy, but who cares.

It was Monday, the last day of school, and also when the winner of the talent show gets announced by Chanhee. Everyone was in the hallways waiting for him to start.

'BLEEP' speaking of which, "Hello loves, I have with me the name of the winner for this years annual talent show at Creker High, but that has to wait for a bit. Since today is the last day of school, make sure you empty your lockers and such. Seniors Graduation is on the 12th so please be there. Teachers, you have a meeting after classes end. Now the moment y'all have been waiting for...." they're a lot of rustling, "God Haknyeon, how much tape did you put on this thing... Younghoon can you please help me, thanks babe" Then an ear-splitting scream which belongs to Changmin, "Hahaha, the winner is," all three of them yell, "KEVIN, congratulations bub, Mrs. Kim's class please come to the main office to collect your prizes, the rest of you lot can wait for the final bell. See you next year, bye"

I hear some dolphin scream and instantly know who it might be, Chenle jumps on my back and I grab his legs making sure he doesn't fall, the rest of my class gather around me.

"Mrs. K went to get the things from the office" Jae explains, I nod and we all start talking until Jacob walks by and Doyoung grabs his arm and pulls him to me.

My wonderful friends stare at us waiting for something, "Kiss" is whispered in my ear my Lele. I roll my eyes and step towards Cob, giving him a soft peck. He smiles and pats Chenle on the head, whos still on my back.

"Come on guys, let's leave them be, We'll talk in the group chat tonight," Jeonghan softly says, "get off of him Lele"

The youngest is reluctant until he sees Jisung Park and instantly latches onto him.

Ten looks back and winks, "Have fun"

I laugh, "They're crazy, but they're family," I look at the older, "Wanna go get ice cream to celebrate Cobbie"

"I don't think we'll be alone, but that's fine with me" I nod.

He was right, went we met up with the others and all went to the ice cream parlor, we might have gotten threatened to get kicked out but Sunwoo's parents were the ones who owned the place so we didn't care.

I was happy.

I don't know how to do endings so here we are. Love you, miss you, take care. Bye.
