"Just maybe, creating another reality with you isn't so bad after all, Jaemin."
He's persistent and she's stubborn, add some bumpers on the road and it's already one hell of a life story.

One hour later, all of us are dismissed. Just as i was stepping outside the main entrance of the school, it started raining like crazy. The wind is strong and thunderstorms could be heard everywhere.
"Damn, how are you going to go home? Want me to give you a lift?" Shimizu shuddered. "Its okay. I have an umbrella so I'll just make a run for it." I sighed and opened the transparent umbrella. "But its not safe! Plus I'm sure you're gonna catch a cold!" She scolded me while we stare at the view.
"Don't worry. I don't get sick easily. See you." I bid her farewell and started running even though Shimizu is still yelling for me from behind. I had no choice since I don't want to stay there any longer. There were big puddles of water everywhere which i hardly try to avoid.
A few metres away from my apartment, i spotted someone crouching on the side of the road. What's up with that person? I carefully approached the unknown from behind and noticed that he has the same uniform as me. Judging from the hair and bag there's no mistake.
"Oi, what are you doing here, Jaemin?" I scooted over to him making sure he's also covered with my umbrella. Is he in his right mind? Crouching down here in the middle of the rain?
"I-I'm fine." He answered without looking up to me. Dumbass. Of course he's not fine, how wise of me to ask that. "Well i can't just ignore you in the rain like this." I tugged on shirt to make him budge.
"J-just get inside y-your a-apartment." I rolled my eyes and finally had enough. Being the stubborn person i am, i pulled his right arm up and dragged him with me. "W-wait! What are you doing?!" He asked suddenly.
"Just shut up." I pushed the elevator button and stepped inside bringing him along with me. Water is dripping down from his uniform and hair. Wait-am i bringing him inside my apartment? WHY DID I DO THAT?!
The elevator stopped and opened the door. This time i was hesitant but pulled him with me anyways. Unlocking the door, i slammed it shut and stared at him who was still looking on the ground as he fiddled his fingers.
"So, what's going on with you?" I asked but this time, more gentle. "P-please don't laugh if i s-say this." His words are making me more impatient. "What?" "I'm afraid of thunderstorms."

I made 2 cups of coffee and cooked 2 packets of spicy ramen since I'm starving and of course because i have a guest over. "Thank you for having me over." He got out of the bathroom with my brother's clothes on. A simple white t-shirt and black sweatpants.
"Come here and eat." I snapped the chopsticks into half and started digging in. He sat down in front of me and ate too. The atmosphere is silent but comfortable. I can't believe the person i despise the most is in my apartment. Even Shimizu has never been here.
"You okay now?" I asked, tired. He nodded slowly and washed the dishes. "Then, I'm going in my room cause i want to sleep. You can stay till the rain stops." I closed my door and plopped on my bed. Lulu stared at me in wonder, probably wanting to know who's the boy i brought home.
Just as i was about to close my eyes, he knocked on the door. Ah, you're kidding me. "Come in." I mentally wanted to scream into the pillow at that moment.
He stood in front of me with a scared expression. "What-." Boom! A loud thunderstorms pierced through my ears. It is really loud. Jaemin's face turned more paler.
What am i suppose to do? "C-can i lay down beside you?" He asked shyly. Oh god, what? Should i allow him? He looks so scared and I can't bear to see him like this anymore since I'm getting so sleepy. "Uh, sure. Don't make any funny business." My voice drifted as i snuggle into the blankets.
He nodded and crawled beside me. Boom!Another strike. This time, i could feel him flinch. The blankets are shaking with him too. I wonder what's making him so scared? This is not just a normal fear, maybe trauma?
"U-um c-can i p-please..." He stopped halfway. What did he wanted to say? I turned to face him and our eye were inches away from each other. My eyes slightly widened from out close distance. "I-i need t-to-." I get it now.
Without wasting a millisecond, i pulled his arm and brought him closer to my chest. His head under my chin while i stroke his soft black locks slowly. "You need to be embraced, don't you?" I muttered.
His whole body is still frozen. I can admit, this is one of the most embarrassing thing I've ever done with a stranger. Well, technically not a stranger but someone distant.
"T-thank you." He returned my hug and gripped onto my pajamas tighter. He's no longer shaking and his breathes are stabled now. That's a relief or else I won't be able to sleep well.
A moment of silence. "Why do you avoid me?" His voice sounds muffled. "Why do you seem so close, yet so far away?" He pulled me closer, maybe even close than before if it makes sense.
"Who knows? We're both from two different worlds." I closed my eyes quietly and stopped stroking his hair. Seriously, I've never imagined cuddling with a random boy. No, specifically cuddling with Na Jaemin.
Before i drifted to dreamland, i heard him utter a few words. "But i want to be apart of your world." He said and i knocked out.
Well look at here who's the little spoon now huh?🤠 Did any of you expect Y/N to lowkey be a dom for a bit?🙈
