Seoho POV.

It was early afternoon when the boys decided to throw a little barbecue party in our Backyard.

They really prepared Meat, Salad, noodles, sausages and other stuff. They even had decorations like party hats, confetti, and balloons with smiling faces!

There was a music box that played some party songs but after some time they put on a Kpop random dance so Hwanwoong could show off his talent until he got tired.

Everything was very funny and there were games we played like:

Charade

Keonhee jumped around in the grass holding both of his hands at the sides of his hands. Everyone was trying to guess but Bunny was wrong since he already shook his head when Dongju yelled it with excitement. We still had 20 seconds to guess. Geonhak mumbled it could be a kangaroo but keonhee didn't hear him so Hwanwoong took the opportunity to yell the word "Kangaroooo" into Keonhees face with a wide grin.  He finally nodded and so Hwanwoong took his turn. We didn't get what he was trying to express as he was just rolling around on the ground. We all had to laugh at the moment he told us with a pout that he was trying to show us a Pangolin. Geonhak was throwing his arms up and down waddling around. It was a bird but he actually wanted to hear the word pigeon. We stopped the game because Dongju accidentally ran against a chair while pretending to be a cheetah. Luckily he didn't hurt himself or Keonhee who was sitting on the chair.

Who/what am i

We all wrote names of celebrities or food or other things on a sticky note and everyone got one to stick on his forehead. I was the third person to get what I was. I was a freaking cucumber. how the hell did I come to this solution? I don't know I was guessing the whole time. Youngjo our genius was the first to guess he's Mickey mouse. Second place was Hwanwoong as Minnie mouse. What a coincidence I thought. Keonhee accidentally cheated by looking at his phone. he wanted to see the time but as the screen went black, he saw the sticky note with the word "puppy" on it. So he got eliminated. Geonhak was the fourth to get it right. His note said "koala". And last but not least, Dongjus note said "squirrel". funny that he didn't understand when I was trying to cheat with him by pointing at myself multiple times since he and the others sometimes call me Squirrel. 

Lastly, they were playing Karaoke but I needed at least a short break after hearing a song I listened to before well under other circumstances.  "Spring day - BTS"

I was staring at the blue sky, thinking about the cloud shapes. One of them looked like a duck! Very cute one but sadly not worth it freezing my ass off in the snow. I was playing in the snow with jiwoo but he got a call so he told me to wait. That was like eight minutes ago and lying on the ground wasn't an option for me anymore so I stood up, looking behind me at the screwed-up snow angel. I smiled hearing the radio playing "Spring day" from the veranda. I started singing the lyrics with closed eyes but screamed as a snowball hit the back of my head leaving a cold feeling in my neck and turning my frozen ears even redder if that's possible.  I turned around seeing my stupid boyfriend giggling to himself. "just wait! I will get my revenge!" I yelled taking some snow as I started to chase him.

I took my phone and my earphones as I sat on the stairs. I put the earphones in my ear tapping on the shuffle symbol. Playing now: Mr. Loverman - Ricky Montgomery didn't really make me feel better but it's a beautiful song and the lyrics kind of fit my situation right now.

I realized that it's already dark and the streetlights were the only reason for the brightness that surrounded me. Well more like the sidewalk. I took a deep breath and close my eyes. The lyrics really hit differently at that moment. "I'm Mister Loverman And I miss my lover, man!" I heard but in a deeper voice than expected. At that moment I realized that one of my earphones was missing so I opened my eyes, expecting it to lay on the ground or hang around my neck but it wasn't. I then noticed a third foot on the side of my own. Those shoes- I looked up to see Geonhak looking at the ground. I turned to him with a slight frown. "are you okay? You don't have to sit alone with me here you know? I'm okay. if the others told you to-" "they didn't... I just wanted to take a deep breath before joining them pretending to be something I'm not. Also, you cant be okay and listen to a song about someone missing their lover after yours left you." he doubted. "okay maybe you're right but- wait what... did you say you're pretending to be something you aren't? with us? you don't have to be something else... just be our geonhak..." He holds his breath for a second and I swear I could see the loading symbol above his head. "Are you the only one who didn't know about my crush on hwanwoong plus my confession to him or are you pretending not to know?" he said in a serious tone "Your what?" I looked at him dumbfounded. " I mean I knew something was going on between you and him but I didn't think you'd like him that way." he looked at me surprised. "didn't think you'd be this slow." "are you here to insult me or do you want us to talk?" I cried out. "okay okay chill my dude" "don't dude me" " You also did that in school!" "I'm surprised you can remember we talked"

We both had to laugh about this. "Okay but for real...we do have at least one thing in common I guess." he pointed out while his lips formed a little smile. Cute I thought to myself.

He took my phone unlocked it- wait.. "why do you...why do you know my password?" I stuttered. "it's not that hard you know? but you should think about changing it. you're not going to forget him if you need him to unlock your phone." he said while changing the song. I just realized that the missing earphone was placed in his ear. The song coming up now kind of surprised me. I really thought I annoyed the shit out of them by playing it over and over again in the dorm.

"We are the lovеsick girls you can't just end this love on your own arе the lovesick girls I'm nothing without this pain."

We are both Lovesick. Both are trapped in the situation of one-sided love... The difference is that I received Love and affection before he broke my heart. Geonhak didn't receive it, to begin with. But... "maybe we can work together... help each other through that time to...fall out of love?" I voiced my thoughts. "that's what I hoped for." he whispered back. We both remained silent. But it was a comfortable silence. We didn't have to talk to understand each other... and With each other... We could finally breathe out. be ourselves without having to pretend to be happy while our hearts are crying.
