Y/N's PoV

What the hell did I just saw!? instead of helping me there because I got locked in the stock room, he's there in the library playing tricks with Amkae!?

"Sis, I think you're holding too tight on the soda can hehe" Beomgyu interrupted me from spacing out when he snapped his fingers infront of me.


I blinked, my eyebrows rose up when I realized he's right. So I looked down to my soda can, only to find out it's now all flat because I'm holding it too tightly earlier.


I put it down, since it's now all wasted, the soda even spilled on my hands.


"What made you so mad like that? Earlier when we went home, you didn't even talked to me nor Soobin." My brother asked, which just made my blood even more boiled again when I heard Soobin's name.

My eyes diverted to Beomgyu, as I tried to calm down before asking,


"Why do guys hug girls?" I asked out of nowhere, while anticipating for what nonsense answer my brother will about to say.


I know he's dumb and everything, but I do trust my brother when it comes to these things. Besides, he's a guy, so he must know.


"Why are you asking things like that frequently? You're getting more weirder than your normal weird." He said while pushing my face away from him, I guess it made him uncomfortable but whatever.

"Pshh. Just answer it!"


"I don't know. Maybe he likes her? Something like that" Beomgyu answered which made me stopped, and my shoulders automatically went down.


Soobin likes Amkae?


Wait. But why do I care!?


"Pshh. Nonsense" I rolled my eyes on him as I crossed my arms, diverting my eyes to nothing in particular.


"Then why did you even asked me!?" I heard my brother scoffed, then threw a pillow on me. Walking upstairs to his room while stomping his feet.


But in any case, my brother might be right. People hug each other, either because of happiness or sadness. Soobin and Amkae are not relatives, they don't even treat each other as friends.... perhaps, does he really likes her?


Speaking of the demon, here he is, walking towards the kitchen to grab some food, not even paying attention that I'm still mad at him, or maybe he doesn't really care at all.


"Ei~~ look at him, he doesn't even realized that I'm mad"  I mumbled while giving him a death glare while he's turning his back on me.


My eyes widened when he suddenly turned his back to face me, and started walking towards me instead of walking towards the kitchen.


Wah! Why is he walking towards me? Did he already realized what he have done wrong?


I gulped when he finally reached me and sat on the empty space beside me.


"I think the cellphone Mom gave me is not working" he asked innocently, while taking out the cellphone inside his pocket and gave it to me.


My eyes squinted as I reached out for the cellphone and looked at it. And it's honestly working perfectly fine.

"What do you mean? It's working!"

"It's not! You texted me you're locked inside the library! But when I went there, I saw Amkae instead of you!" I got even more puzzled because of what Soobin said.


I looked down at the cellphone, and clicked the message app, and saw an unknown number texted Soobin and was pretending that it was me.

My hand started molding into a fist while thinking that was all a set up.


"You see? Amkae is bad! She's a crazy bitch leeching in every boys inside the school! So don't go near her, you got that?" I told him, even pointing at him as if I was lecturing him.


But I stopped, the moment I realized what I just said.

Did I just backstabbed Amkae?


As expected, he nodded politely without even giving me any expression.


I heave a deep sigh of relief as I heard him calling my name, "y/n"


"Hmm?"


"She hugged me... I-i didn't hugged her back" he uttered out of nowhere which made me looked at him and back off for a moment.


I cleared my throat before saying, "Y-yah! Do you think I care? I don't care at all if you hug her back or not! Do you think I'm jealous!? Hah----


"I never said you were"


And with that, silence filled the atmosphere when my cheeks get heated up in embarrassment. And my talkative mouth suddenly went shut because of what he said.


but because I don't want to end this conversation embarrassing myself, I tried opening up another topic....

"Did you have butterflies in your stomach when Amkae hugged you?" I asked nervously, changing the subject to him.


"No. Not at all. Am I supposed to?"


"N-no... but usually, when the person you like hugs you, butterflies in your stomach occurs. Cheesy right?" I explained, while a small chuckle came out from my lips.


"But I don't like Amkae." He mumbled innocently, which made me shifted my eyes to him.


This heart, is racing so fast that I think it can even win a marathon.


"Y-yeah ha-ha." I awkwardly laughed at him. But at some point, I knew that what he said made me heave a deep sigh of relief.


But my eyes could never get any bigger when he suddenly pulled me into a warm hug, I'm afraid that he might feel my heart beat.



"Y-yah! What are you doing? Let go---"



"y/n, there's something circling inside my stomach....."


I blinked when I heard what he whispered to me, I cleared my throat nervously as I asked him,



"H-huh? W-what are you saying?"



"Is this the butterflies in my stomach you're saying a while ago or...." he stopped.


"Or?"



"Am I just hungry?"




And with that, he broke the hug and without even uttering a word, he walked towards the kitchen to find some food.

leaving me here all assuming and hopeful.
