Hopes | JiHan (Joshua x Jeonghan FF)

Chapter 13

I woke up with a loud thud on my butt. I apparently fell off the bed. Don't ask me about the crazy dream I got. I'm in a bad mood.

"Ahh! my butt hurts like hell." I groaned. Jeonghan wasn't anywhere to be found. The bright light was entertaining the hotel room through the window. I picked up my phone to see the time. I'm honestly surprised I managed to sleep until 1 in the afternoon.

I got up and lazily looked around for quite some time. Usually, I'd straight away go to brush my teeth but I was curious as to where Jeonghan was. I grabbed my coat and headed out to ask around. I saw our manager on our floor talking to a staff member.

"...Ah! They all went out to look around the city and eat stuff."

"Without me?" I asked, surprised. I never thought they'd ditch me again. It's actually bad. Am I not a part of the group? At least they could've left a note? I checked my phone... They didn't even leave a message...

It's actually fine. I'm actually fine with this... Yeahh... I'm fine. They perhaps don't like me... That must be it... Maybe they forgot, there are many members... They must've forgot that I existed? But why always me? Is my presence really that small?

Why am I acting like a butthurt baby? They probably don't want to be with me.

I dashed towards my room. I took off my coat and straight away went for the bathroom and locked it from inside. The bathroom is the only place where no one can bother me. I can cry my eyes out without even anyone noticing... With eyes full of tears, I sank to the ground.

"I-it h-hurts" I mumbled.

"What hurts?"

I almost immediately turned to see who it was but that voice was too familiar. I can never mistake it to be someone else's. That soft voice only belongs to one person. There he was... Yoon Jeonghan... Standing in the bathroom... Wet...

And umm.. well... naked...

"Uhhh..." I was rendered speechless. I have seen him shirtless and with just his underwear countless times but not like this...

I immediately averted my eyes and started clumsily unlocking the door. I became so flustered that I wasn't able to do even a mere task of unlocking a door. Why am I so hopeless?

"Jisoo... you're crying?"

"I'M NOT!" Which was an obvious lie, by the way. I forgot I had tears streaming down my face. My heart was beating faster by every second. I could feel my cheeks burn.

I finally managed to unlock the door. I dashed out of the bathroom as soon as I can and locked it from outside, because that was the only thing I could do at the moment.

"Jisoo-ah! What happened?" I could hear Jeonghan's voice echo from inside, he was banging the door.

"G-get d-dressed first!"

Why do I sound so flustered? We're both guys. It's not a big deal. Right?

"We're both guys so why do you even care?"

"I didn't see anything. I repeat- I totally didn't just see you naked! I'm sorry." Jisoo said, flustered.

"Holy shit Shua! We're both guys for fuck's sake. Why do you sound so embarrassed?"

Why? I ask myself.

"At least open the door?"

No!

"At least get me my clothes then."

I rushed and picked up the first pair of shirt and jeans I could find from his luggage. I unlocked the door and handed them to him.
