Happier (DahMin) [Completed]

Chapter 7

Dahyun's Point of View

Jimin is currently taking care of me. I am observing and watching him as he softly and carefully wipes my arm with a wet towel. I felt something inside me, as I watch him. As always everything he does makes my cheek red, resulting in me feeling hotter. Good thing he thinks that my cheeks are hot because of my fever. Afterward, he called Jin Oppa to cook seaweed soup for me and asked him to take care of me before he decides to buy medicine for me.

Why is he like this? He just makes me fall deeper.  I don't want to assume, my mind doesn't want to. But my heart always assumes.

I looked at the door as someone knocks at it, the door opened and I saw Jin, peeking his head at the door like some gossiper.

As he saw me, he enters fully "Here is your soup Dahyun" he put the soup on the bedside table and sits at the side of the bed. 

He and I just stared at each other like we're communicating telepathically."Your lucky Dahyun" I motioned myself, asking why. He shrugs his broad shoulders "Because I know Jimin. He will really take care of you" he said proudly as if it's his son. I smiled at that. Yeah, I am lucky enough to be taken care of by my crush. That's a rare thing, right?

"And, I really smell something fishy between the two of you," Jin teasingly said while stirring the seaweed soup and blowing it lightly.

"The fishes are outside, swimming" I sarcastically said while glaring at him. While he is just smiling like a fool.

"You know what I mean," he said, gone the teasing look and his tone was embraced by the seriousness."Dahyun can I ask you something?"

"Sure" I answered. I waited for a few seconds before he asked...

"Do you like Jimin?"

I was astounded at his question. Am I that obvious? I thought. Why does everyone seem to know about how I feel towards him?

If almost everyone knew...Does he know?

I slowly nodded "It started in my training days"

"Do you still love him even when he was with Seulgi?" he asked, dumbfounded.

I nodded again "I still love him then. It doesn't mean that if he's with someone, this feeling will go away." If you can't dictate your heart to love someone, you also can't tell it to unlove.

"Wow" it sounded like he was really amazed. He looks silly and cute as he made that expression if his. "You know Dahyun, you're so brave, so every time that you---" He cut off when someone abruptly came in.

I do love him but he needs to know how to knock or else I'll die from a heart attack.

"Oh Hyung" Jimin greeted. "Thanks for the seaweed soup, and for looking after her" he dropped some small paper bag, maybe its what he bought. Jin only nodded and patted Jimin's shoulder as if saying 'It's alright bud' " By the way, you can go now they are looking for you," Jimin said. He was thanking and letting Jin go but why does it sound as if he was getting rid of him? Or is it just me?

Jin immediately left the room but before he left he smiled at me meaningfully, so I smiled back.

Jimin loudly grabbed a chair for him to sit on and reaches the soup then he blew it. "Here," he said. I open my mouth then I ate the soup. Why does he look pissed or something? Or maybe again, it's just me?

"So what did Jin Hyung said?" he asked while still feeding me the soup.

"Nothing" I instantly answered. I don't like him, knowing about this nonsense feeling of mine. He and I will never happen. Being in a relationship with your long time crush is just near to impossible. It only happens in movies and stories. So what is the point of me confessing this hidden feeling, right?

He was silently feeding me and did not ask anything after that. His actions towards me were caring yet it seemed like he's pissed. I have been observing him since he arrived and he looked annoyed. I tried ignoring it but I just can't take it anymore.

"What's wrong?" I asked. His jaw clenched and his brows knitted more than it could earlier. Why does he look so hot and dashing even though he's pissed? That's supposed to be illegal Mister.

"Nothing" gradually, he put down the empty bowl and proceeded to give me the medicine. Hesitatingly, I swallowed it with water. Still bothered as to why his expression is like that.

"Rest Dahyun" he mumbled and left.

Jimin's Point of View

I'm staring at her for a long time now. Even though she's sick, she still holds the beauty in her. Those lashes and soft cheeks of hers, I admire. The only chance I can get to stare at her, was now, that she's asleep, cuz' maybe she'll find me weird and uncomfortable if I stare at her when she's awake. I sighed and looked at the time, it's already evening. I put my hand in her forehead to check her temperature and I felt a relief when she's already fine.

I decided to leave her room for a bit to have some fresh air at the beach. I don't know where the others are and what they are doing but I am glad they're not out here.

I don't know. But... these days I really am not into talking to someone. It's like it exhausts me.

I breathed out, as the wind blew right onto me. I will admit that I miss Seulgi a little bit. Her smile and presence, I miss. For years, I have been with her. It's normal to miss her like this, right?

My mind suddenly thought of Dahyun.

Dahyun...

I don't know what I am feeling towards her. All I know is just that she makes me feel something new yet familiar feeling. She's kind, beautiful, soft, and jolly. It's not hard to like her, well, not that I'm saying I like her.

Perhaps, this feeling is—

"So what are you doing here?" I turned my head sideways to look beside me and I see a tall good looking guy, standing near.

"Just...getting some fresh air. You?"

"Hyung, is Dahyun okay?" he asked while gazing at the dark sky filled with small numerous shining stars, ignoring what I just said. I looked to where he was looking.

"She's okay now, she just needs to rest more" I smiled at that. I really am relieved she's okay now. I bet she'll be happy tomorrow, she'll get to continue to enjoy the vacation. Seriously, I didn't understand her with that. She acts as if the island is leaving and she can't go back here anymore. She really wants this vacation badly. Good thing she listened when I said she should rest first.

Peaceful Silence enveloped me and Taehyung as we're stargazing. While looking at the stars, I think... Dahyun is a star. She can light up the dark sky, just like a star, by shining so brightly with her loved ones around her.

And with that thought, I smiled.
