#3_Busy Boyfriend

"Okay I'm leaving!" I shouted down the hallway as I slipped on my sneakers.

"Oh wait HyeJin," I stopped on my tracks and turned around. "Come back home by 8, we have guests for dinner." Jin said as he wiped his hands on his white apron.

"Guests? Who?" I asked as I lowered my bag.

"TXT"

I closed the door behind me as the cool breeze hit my face. I let out a sigh as I went forwards. I quickly pulled up my mask, so people won't recognize me. I looked around as I kept moving forwards. I reached my destination as I looked around. He's late, I thought.

Just as I thought I've waited long, I turned and let out a scream.

"Ahhh-"

He covered my mouth with his hand as he smiled. "Woah is this how you greet your boyfriend?" Jaemin asked as he took his hand away from my mouth. I clutched my chest as I breath heavily. I looked around if people were watching. "Is this how you greet your girlfriend?" I asked back as he cutely laughed. I hit his hand playfully as he chuckled.

"Wah you're still the baby HyeJin you know." He stated as we sat down. "Ani I'm not a baby because remember the last time we watched a horror movie, You were the one who was clutching my hand throughout the movie and I'm pretty sure you were the one responsible for that high pitched scream at the end." I said as he pretended to be hurt by my words. "When will you forget it? So I can live my life in peace." He asked. I laughed. "I wanted to te-"

My words were cut by his notification tone as he excused himself. I waited patiently. He ended this call as he looked at me. "HyeJin I'm, I'm sorry but I have to go. Our choreographer is calling us. I'm so sorry." H apologized as I pecked his cheeks which made him silent. He turned a shade of crimson. I chuckled as he stood up. I did the same. He took one last look on me as he muttered "bye" and left. I let out a sigh as I picked up my bag.

I turned back to go home. I let out another sigh as I walked. I looked afar as the wind blew. A lot of couples were sitting. They didn't had to wear masks or be extra protective of onlookers.

Just as I was thinking of these this I accidentally bumped into something no, someone. I quickly fixed my mask as I looked up. "I'm so sorry s- I have seen you somewhere.." I asked the masked stranger as I looked into his eyes. those eyes, they looked so familiar. "Well you must have seen me, a lot." He added. His voice, it was so familiar, so sweet. Admiring his features, it just hit me. It's Beomgyu

I lowered my mask as I hit his hand, lightly. "You idiot!" I exclaimed. His eyes widened as he lowered his mask and said it in a very low, fast whisper. "HyeJin it was you! gosh I thought you looked familiar too gosh ,I am so stupid your hair is also recognizable, gosh..." he ranted as he put his hands in his pockets. The wind blow strong again as his hair is messed. I admired his features, the way he laughs when he fixes his hair but the wind mess it again, his hands, his cute face, the look of innocence plastered all over. I kept starring at him and I didn't notice him looking at me.

He laughed as I regained my conscious. "What, what is itt?" I asked him. Whenever I'm trying to act angry, when I'm not, my voice goes really high and It kinda sounds like I'm doing aegyo, but I'm not. because of this, I'm often associated with aegyo by many of my fans.

"Shouldn't I ask that question? You were the one staring at me.." He said as he crossed his arms and looked straight at me, or should I say my soul?

"I was not." I tried to reason but it came out as that high pitched, aegyo voice. He laughed at my voice and expression. "Fine I give up. I can't act like I'm angry when I'm not without looking like an idol doing aegyo." I huffed out. I puff my cheeks as I sat down on the nearest bench. He came to join me, chuckling.

"Any particular reason why I met you here?" he asked. "I came here for my boyfriend but he had work and he had to go back." I replayed the events as I played with my hands. My voice automatically goes lower whenever I am sad or guilty about things. He chuckled again and I looked at him. "It's funny, you voice was all Mariah Carey before and now it's like Stray Kids Felix." I laughed.

"Hey," I said as I remembered. "Weren't you and TXT having a dinner with us?" I asked. "Oh yes thanks for reminding. I better go home." he said as he stood up.

We strolled along on the side walks as we both parted ways and went for our homes.
