"So, do you?"

"So, do you?"

His question took her aback. She almost couldn't tell if he was being serious or not. Hyesoo's hair fell in front of her face, but it wasn't enough, so she could still see him. She brushed her hair out of her face to look at Jeno in much more detail. His eyes were opened wide, a small glimmer from the moonlight made them shine. Her smile had faded with her mouth agape.

Oh my gosh. He was serious.

"Well," Jeno began to speak again. He stepped closer towards the girl, careful to not hurt her. "Do you, Hyesoo? Do you like me too?"

Hyesoo couldn't help but almost melt at his presence. His eyes that gazed upon her couldn't help but make her heart flutter. Any last movement from Jeno and the girl would've probably been at the boy's beck and calling from then onwards. But, Hyesoo had to salvage her last bit of dignity left and be confident.

She took a step forward closer to Jeno. This startled the boy as he took a step back. But she wasn't done there, she continued to step closer and closer to Jeno, which made him stumble backwards. "Maybe I do. Perhaps I still like you. Or maybe, my feelings... never went away," She said, a sly smile on her face.

Jeno took a little gulp, surprised at the sudden confidence Hyesoo had got, "R-really?" He stuttered.

"Maybe so," She said, a smile that was as great as the moon shining plastered upon her face.

"G-good. Good to know," Jeno sputtered out. If he had the bravery he had five minutes ago perhaps he would've said something else, but alas, his confidence had disappeared. The atmosphere was silent, it was comfortable for Hyesoo, but Jeno; Jeno felt suffocated, unsure of what to say. He stood back up, recomposing himself, "I- I'm just gonna go now. Bye, Hye, love you," He said as he walked off. Jeno paused for a second as he heard what he said, he turned around, facing the girl again and gave her a small smile before running off back home. Hyesoo couldn't help but just laugh at the boy. "Cute," She thought, walking back inside her house.

"Is there a word for the way I'm feeling right now?" Jeno asked, plopping down into the seat.

"What? Are you sick? Do we need to take you to the doctor?" His hyung, Doyoung, asked, worried.

"Take it a little easier, Doyoung. You didn't even let the kid tell us what was wrong," Taeyong said. Jeno rolled his eyes at his older friends. He had called them to ask for advice, but it almost seemed like they were teasing him just a tad bit. "Firstly, I'm not a kid. I'm sixteen. Secondly, it's about Hyesoo."

Doyoung and Taeyong's eyes opened wide, "Hyesoo?" They asked simultaneously. Jeno nodded. "As in Ryu Hyesoo? That girl you and Sungchan hang out with a lot?" Doyoung asked. Again, Jeno nodded. "What's wrong with her? She seems like a nice girl," Taeyong said.

"That's the problem! There's nothing wrong with her! But how come everytime I see her my stomach does that weird thing," Jeno exclaimed.

"... What weird thing?" Doyoung inquired. Jeno sighed and proceeded to do some weird movement with his hands, flailing them around. Doyoung let out an 'o' while Taeyong rolled his eyes. "I believe the term for what you're feeling is butterflies," Taeyong said.
