Cinderella- Seungjin- Stray Kids

6.

"Good." Hyunjin smiled and looked me straight in the eyes.

Like he was reading every thought I had right then in there.

I couldn't help but avert my gaze.

What was he doing, why is he staring so intensely in my eyes.

"H-Hyunjin?" I couldn't help but stutter from how flustered I was. My stomach was full of butterflies and my face burnt red.

"Yeah?" He kept staring most likely taking in all my features and could totally see my tomato face.

"U-um hi?" I had no words at the moment I was shocked and frozen to where I couldn't even process any words and if I did it would be gibberish.

"Hi there Seungmin." He laughed due to my sudden greeting.

I looked anywhere but in front of me if i did I think I'd melt right there.

"Seungmin look at me please." He gently grabbed my chin and faced me towards him giving a large bright smile.

I felt like I was melting.

"Can you tell me what's happened to you? Why would someone hurt someone as beautiful and sweet as you?" His voice whispered in the dark room.

"Uh, I-I guess I should." I hesitated.

"But can we move so I won't be distracted?" I said shyly making him smile.

"Of course, whatever you say." He swiftly got up and moved to the small table in the corner.

I somewhat already missed his touch.

I sat down on the chair in front of him and intertwined my hands on my lap.

"O-Okay so.." I told him everything, I let everything out. About my orphan life with my sister, to the massive abuse of my step mother, all the things I had to do for them.

I don't know exactly why but I feel as if I could tell everything to him. So I did.

He was left shocked, completely shocked, frozen and his mouth covered by his hand.

"I'm so sorry Seungmin, that seems like the worst life ever. You are incredibly strong." He gently grabbed my hands and stared me in the eyes.

"No it's fine really, I think, I think I'm finished with that life now. My sisters helped me get here. But I don't know where to go from here." I gave a small smile barely lifting the corners of my lips.

Hyunjin returned the smile and stared at me once again.

It seems like he likes to stare at people intensely.

"Seungmin I have an idea." He gave another big smile at his idea.

"What is it?" I questioned and gave a curious look.

"You can stay with me and my family since your house is clearly not safe for you. You can stay with me, it's only common sense for me to help you right?" He grinned and held my hands.

"But I would be a burden to you and your family and I don't want to burden you of all people." I sighed.

"Seungmin listen, you of all people are not a burden, I couldn't hate you if my life depended on it." He gave a serious tone.

"But I don't know how to do anything, being trapped in a house and only going out for groceries and school can't really do anything dont you think?" I sadly smiled.

"Seungmin I always have a solution, I can teach you, guide you through I guess. Don't worry about all the logistics."

He really does always have a solution. He won't let me not go will he?

I smiled.

"Fine if you're fine with it I'll go." I smiled brightly.

He let out a loud cheer and started to jump around the cabin.

"Yes yes yes yes!! Seungmins going to live with me!!" He cheered slightly making my face go red of embarrassment.

"S-stop it Hyunjin you're embarrassing me." I shyly said.

"But no ones here. It's just us everyone else is swimming." He stopped and smiled.

"I-I know but still it's embarrassing." I touched my face to try and stop it from turning more red than it already was.

Hyunjin what are you doing to me? Why do I feel so shy and flustered when you're near me? Why does my heart  skip a beat when you touch me?
