Loving You Is A Losing Game • Jakehoon

-Jake, you have to do better.-said his couch while Jake almost collapsed since he's been practising for 5 hours.
-I'm trying. Can we take a break? I'm exhausted.
-Okay, 10 minutes.
Jake sat on the bench and drank all his water. He was trying to catch his breath when he got a message. It was from Sunghoon.
"Hi! How are you?"
Jake was happy that Sunghoon texted him. He thought about it too, but he didn't have the courage.
"Hi! I'm fine but now I'm at practise so I'm kinda dying."
"Oh :(( Me too. Do you wanna get something to eat after your practice?"
Oh my god, does Sunghoon want to meet Jake? Jake was really happy.
"Of course. Only one hour til I'm finished, you?"
"I'm already done. But I can wait for you outside."
"Okay thanks."
Jake was so happy that he will get to have spend time with Sunghoon. It's been a week since they last met, and they were both really busy sadly.

Sunghoon thought there's something wrong with him. He's been thinking about Jake all week, and it's been driving him crazy? And what was the reason? Why? He didn't know. That's why he wanted to meet him, maybe then he'll get answers. And he missed him.
-Jungwon.-said Sunghoon into the phone.
-Where are you?
-Oh I'm in front of the tennis court, I'm waiting for Jake.
-That's great but we talked yesterday. To meet today.
-Oh damn, I forgot sorry.-said Sunghoon but he couldn't felt sorry cause he was so excited to meet Jake.
-No problem. I will meet Jay then. Bye, have a good date.
-It's not a date.-said Sunghoon but Jungwon already hung up. He could be so annoying sometimes.

Sunghoon listened to music while he was waiting for Jake. It felt like an eternity.
-Hi.-shouted a happy Jake.
-Oh hi! -he was so happy to see Jake.
-Why didn't you come in? Are you crazy?-laughed Jake. He couldn't believe Sunghoon was standing in the cold for an hour.
-I didn't even think about that.
-Now let's go eat. I'm starving.
-Where do you want to go?-asked Sunghoon but he saw how cold Jake was so he landed him his coat.
-Oh I don't need it thanks. I'm just cold cause of the sweat. I will warm up in a minute. Let's go to McDonalds.
-Okay.-said Sunghoon smiling.
They were having small talks about school, weather, tennis, skating while walking.

-So, why did you text me suddenly you want to meet?-asked Jake as he was eating his hamburger.
-Oh no reason. I just thought it would be good to meet up you know.-said Sunghoon, but that was only half of the truth. He really missed Jake somehow. -And how was your practice?
-Oh it was the usual. Hours and hours of practice, then I'm at work except today. And then I go home and sleep. And of course I'm homeschooled so I have a lot of homework and everything. And there's a competition coming up which there will be my great enemy Heeseung whom I just injured accidentally...-Jake started ranting unintentionally after a while. It was good to talk to someone who gets you.
-Oh wow. I'm sorry. I didn't know you were this busy. How can you keep up?
-Jay helps me. He has been by my side since I came to Korea. Without him, I couldn't do anything.
-Oh I see and what about that Heeseung guy? What happened?
Jake found it sweet that Sunghoon was this interested in his life. But Sunghoon really was interested, he wanted to know everything about the boy sitting in front of him.
-Well since I've been playing tennis, Heeseung has been my opponent almost everytime, and we just don't like each other, there's hatred towards each other. And last match I accidentally, well hit him with a ball sooo he had to go to the hospital. And now I think he hates me more than ever. So I'm really looking forward to the competition.-said Jake sarcastically.
-Look I'm sure nothing will happen. And I think you play better than him so you will win.
-You haven't seen me play.-laughed Jake. -Oh that reminds me. Would you like to come to my next match?
-Yes of course.-laughed Sunghoon and he couldn't be happier.
Then they talked about Sunghoon, that he's been ice skating since he was a kid and he's family, and these kinds of things.
And the two boys realised something. Is that they really happy when they are with the other. But what does that mean?
