Chapter 13

"You're still on your phone?" Jeongyeon asked, looking over Nayeon's shoulder. "What's up? You've been like that all day."

"I can't help it, there's still no reply for the past four hours." Turning off her phone before Jeongyeon could read any messages, she leaned back on her chair and sighed. She was too scared to face Dahyun.

"You're that whipped huh?" Jeongyeon joked making Nayeon smack her on the shoulders. "I mean it's true, you were constantly checking on your phone. Don't think I didn't notice that. Even Jihyo noticed."

"Am I that easy to read?" Nayeon asked, mentally exhausted.

"Yeah, I heard from Tzuyu that you made chocolates, though she didn't say for who. You gonna tell us the special person?"

"I'm not sure if I'm ready to tell you guys." Of course she couldn't, she was afraid if they wouldn't accept her like this. Even if they were her best friends, eve if she think nothing of it, doubt would always reach up to her.

"Is it that embarrassing to tell?" Nayeon didn't answere, biting down her bottom lip making Joengyeon worry. "I'm your friend Nayeon, you can always talk to me if there's something wrong. I promise I won't laugh at you."

"Promise me we'll still be friends?" Nayeon didn't know what she was doing, but though maybe telling others would get the feeling of doubt from her friends go away. It was better to communicate like what others said. Jeongyeon had nodded, eagerly waiting for Nayeon to say the persons name. "It's... Dahyun."

Nayeon covered her face to hide her reddening face. When she didn't hear a single word from Jeongyeon, she prepared herself for the worst. She moved her hands away from her face and saw Jeongyeon thinking, a hand on her chin.

"Dahyun who? There's a lot of Dahyun here at school."

"Oh my god Yoo, it's Kim Dahyun."

"Wait you mean our Dahyun? Eagle Dahyun? Dubu?!" Nayeon nodded slowly, observing Jeongyeon's expressions turned to shock, confused, shock and then... happiness? "I knew there was something going on between the two of you! I always saw how you and Dahyun stare at each other!"

"OH my god if you knew then why did you asked?" Nayeon covered her face.

"I didn't want to jump on conclusions. But oh my god why didn't I see this before. You two actually look cute together."

"Really?"

"Yeah, if you didn't know, I overheard your conversation with Dahyun when we were having a sleep over. I mean who wouldn't? Acting brave is an act of love."

"Please keep it a secret from everyone else okay? For now, I still want it to keep low."

"Got it."

The bell rang, indicating their next subject. Students started flooding the classroom one by one until their teacher entered and started their lection.
