Seventeen Imagines III

#19 "Hey Buddy"

  Mingyu and I are both working for a romance melo-drama project. He's the male lead while I play the female lead.

  Mingyu is a good actor and he's very dedicated. The only challenge for me is the fact that we have to act as lovers when in reality, we're great buddies.

  "Can we do the scene on number 35?" Mingyu suggested.

  I flipped my manuscript then nodded my head. "Sure dude."

  We are inside his condominium to practice our lines. I am used to hang out to his place together with our other friends. Now that I remembered them, I realized this is the first I came here all alone.

  "You ready?" I asked as I sat properly beside him on a couch.

  "Yup yup."

  I cleared my throat first before setting my expression into my character. "Action."

  "How long will you ignore me?" He acted the line with teary eyes.

  "Until the day that I die," I replied.

  Mingyu skimmed his lines for a moment and stared back at me. "You said that you'll die without me. Isn't it today?"

  "What are you saying?" I forgot my next line so I re-read my manuscript. Once again, my eyes cocked at him. "Did you just say that you wanted me to die?"

  "I never wanted to see you die, Marie. But I guess dying in the name of love is not bad at all."

  Geez. I really wanted to laugh right now.

  "Then, do you love me?" My voice cracked in the middle.

  Mingyu held my hand and put it on his chest. "I love you."

  A moment of silence swept the space. Under the light where his eyes are dimmer, we stared at each other before....

  "Wahahhahahahahahhaha!" The two of us laughed so hard.

  "Omg! This is so creepy!" He shouted while curling his fingers.

  "Damn! I have goosebumps all over my skin!" I said after throwing my manuscript on the floor.

  "We're doomed, (Y/n). How will we act like a lovers if we're like this?"
