Seduce Me {GNCD (Golden Child) Joochan}

<6>

"Rosaline," I heard a voice behind me that greeted me, "Can I join you?"
I turned around to meet eyes with Seungmin, who was standing just a meter apart from me, looking a bit flustered. "I need to tell you something the guys can't know," He stammered as he went to sit down when I nodded he could sit.

"What is it? Is it something bad?" I asked him, as he shrugged but his face looked serious. "I do not know how to start.." He softly told me as he scratched his ear, "I'm sorry I am distracting you, but I really need to get this off my shoulders," He sighed and then spoke up, so I let him without interrupting him. "I like someone," he paused, "but I don't think the guys will like who it is, especially since um- I-It's a guy," His face flushed red and hid behind his hands as I felt very happy that Seungmin decided to tell me about Y. I guess it meant Seungmins feelings were real. 

"That's okay, what's he like?" I smiled as a bright sparkle appeared in his eyes, "He's someone that protects me and I can feel safe with," he said, "I met him a few weeks ago and saved me from some bullies. He then came to check on me everyday since. I guess I fell in love when he showed up like that," Seungmin blushed as I smiled broadly at him. It seemed like nothing wrong so far. "However, his reputation's not the best," Seungmin noted as his eyes lowered, "Jibeom even warned you about him." He looked a little sad but then looked up at me with a small smile, "But it'll be fine. The chance he likes me back is small anyway," He scratched his ear a little flustered and then cleared his throat a little, "so yeah, that was it." I giggled and patted his shoulder.

"I am really happy you told me," I said, "however, there's something you don't know-"
"Seungmin!" A voice interrupted me when my eyes went wide open when I saw who it was. It was actually Y himself, walking up to Seungmin. I could not read his expression, but I was sure it was not a negative one. Y took a seat next to Seungmin and greeted me before making handgestures to someone else, making me realize there was someone else as well.

It was at that moment that someone took a seat to me, and when I peeked through my eye corners who it was, my face flushed as red as Seungmins. Next to me sat Joochan, the one and only. He didn't say anything, he just peeked back at me for a second.

"So, you're Seungmins best friend aren't you?" Y asked and I nodded carefully, while giving him a feeble, but friendly smile. "He's told a lot about you, it's nice to meet you." He put out his hand and I took it to meet him. "Same goes to you," I hestitantally responded as I sat back, noticing Joochans eyes glued on me, making me blush slightly again. Gosh, why was it so hard to control myself when he was around? 

"Seungmin's told us about your other friends too, by the way. Speaking of the devil, we thought it would be nice to invite you to Jacksons party tonight, since he's practically invited the whole school," Y continued as he went to hold Seungmins hand. "Seungmin didn't want to go without you," Y added as he gave Seungmin a soft smile. I could not tell if it was acted or sincere, but I wanted to believe the latter. "And your friends won't let you go alone either," Joochan added on a quite annoyed tone before standing up and after that winking at me. "Be sure to come," He smiled and then left, followed by Y who did the same, but pecked Seungmins cheek before departing.

After a short silence I spoke up: "Seungmin, I have to go, oh and, I'll come, okay?  I know you like him a lot," I said my goodbyes to him as I quickly went to the washrooms to make a call privately. I really needed to get this off my shoulders myself now.

"Jibeom," I hurriedly cried out when he answered the phone, as I nervously walked around in the restoom area. "What is it? Did something happen? Do I need to come to you?" He answered rapidly as I told him 'no' a few times before he was convinced. "I just need you to be a listener for a while," I explained, "because Seungmin's told me about Y." 

Jibeom remained quiet so I figured he was letting me speak. "He came to me in the library and told me everything, after which Y and his friend came to invite us to Jacksons party. Seungmin was scared to go on his own, so I agreed. He really likes Y, he really really does. I've never seen him like this before." I sighed before Jibeom spoke up. "But why didn't he tell us then?" He wondered, as I could hear a little bit of suspicion in his voice. "Because he likes a guy, and a bad one at that," I explained, "He's afraid you guys might judge him." 

Jibeom giggled a little as I could practically hear his eyes roll. "Why would we even judge him. I don't care he's a guy. I just care he's Y. Why does he want us to come? Why would we even go to a party? We never did," Jibeom complained as I agreed, "True, but they really insisted. Plus, it's for Seungmins sake. We're his friends after all." I noted as I leaned against one of the walls in the washroom. "Speaking about that, who even was that friend?" Jibeom continued as I felt a knot in my throat. "Well.." I started, but Jibeom finished it for me: "It was Joochan, right?" He paused for a while.

"I'll come." He stated and asked for the details of the party. "Seriously? You would do that for him?" I happily responded while clapping my free hand against my phone, "Thank you! Could you go and convince Jaehyun? I guess we've got some preparing to do," I smiled and hung up the phone before departing back home, feeling all excited.

Was it so wrong I was secretly looking forward to going to a party with Joochan?
