"Hyun-ki...", I turn away from him to fight back tears. Hyun-ki realizes something is wrong, and gets up to embrace me.
"Hey. What's wrong?" He rubs the back of my head.
"Hyun-ki...I was hoping that this wouldn't come up. At least not so soon, but I should be honest with you. William was murdered a few years ago, and Cameron is mentally unstable. I don't keep in contact with Cameron anymore", I pour out a few tears, holding most of them in.
"I'm sorry I asked", he apologizes still rubbing my head.
"No. It's good that you asked. I had to tell you sooner or later", I grasp onto the back of Hyun-ki's shirt.
Eventually, we let go of each other. I close my scrapbook.
"Death is not easy to get over", Hyun-ki hangs his head down.
"I know. I just wish I didn't have any kind of feeling about that", I admit to wanting to feel numb sometimes.
"Do you...", Hyun-ki hesitates. I patiently wait for his words to come out.
"Do you want me to stay over for the night?" He asks.
"I'd like that. I should text Kallie", I grin at Hyun-ki who seems to have gotten his cheerfulness back.
I text Kallie that Hyun-ki is staying over for the night. She then texts me back to tell me that she's going to stay with her boyfriend for the night, since she isn't ready to meet Hyun-ki yet.
"Hey Hyun-ki?" I walk over to him as I tug my hair behind my ear.
"Yeah?" He swivels around on the barstool towards me.
"Wanna watch a movie?" I wrap my arms around his neck.
"Sounds like fun. Let's do it", he pats my back.
We sit on the couch, before turning on the TV.
"So what do you wanna watch?" I turn on the TV and scroll the Netflix.
"Something scary", Hyun-ki suggests which isn't a bad suggestion.
"Okay", I select the first horror movie I see.
The movie starts. 10 minutes into the movie, Hyun-ki and I are playing a game. Basically, he'll look at me, but when I catch him then he'll look away, or I'll look at him and he'll catch me, then I'll look away. There is no winner nor a loser, just awkwardness. I face palm, and give into his cuteness. I stand up from the cushioned seat, walk in front of Hyun-ki, and place my hands on my hips with a dubious facial expression.
"What?" He looks up at me in concern.
Without another word, I sit sideways on his lap. He cuddles my circumference.
"You were looking at me, I looked at you looking at me, you stopped looking at me, then I started looking at you, you caught me looking at you, so I stopped looking at you. It was relentless, so I decide to make the first move", I babble while Hyun-ki appears to have a blank facial expression.
"Mhmm. I didn't get any of that, but I did. You know what I mean?" Hyun-ki tries to make sense of everything.
"I am confusion", I widen my eyes and Hyun-ki starts laughing.
"Hyun-ki, I've never been in this kind of relationship before. I don't know where it's gonna go, or what's going to happen, but I think that's what the point of relationships are. To take a risk or chance even though you're scared of los-", Hyun-ki shuts me up by gluing his mouth to mine.
The next day, I wake up into the next morning with a heavy, tall man holding me. I look under the covers to see that I have an oversized shirt and undergarments on. The man, however, just had jeans on.
Oh my gosh, did something happen? Why is this happening? I'm a VIRGIN still, right? Well.....I don't remember! NOOOO, IT WAS TOO SOON INTO THE RELATIONSHIP!
I slowly twist my head to be certain of who's in bed with me. Thank God it's Hyun-ki. He's so cute when he's sleeping. He looks peaceful. Let's ruin that shall we?
"Wake up." All of a sudden, he wakes up from his pretend sleep, and does some kind of ninja move. I end up under the covers with him clutching me tight.
"I need air", I beat his chest.
"Naw, you're fine. Air is for people who don't wake me up in the middle of my sleep", an evil grin spreads across his face.
"You're so mean, and you were barely sleeping", I tickle him and he starts to giggle, which results in my release.
"Finally. Freedom!" I remove the covers from me, but as soon as I get out, Hyun-ki just lays on top of me.
"You're so dead!" I threaten trying to climb out from under his body.
"You have to say please, if you wanna get free", he bargains.
"Please get your heavy, spine collapsing, evil, muscular body off of me", I rant. Hyun-ki rolls off of me 5 seconds later.
"Do you want me to die? You're as evil as Yong-sun on the inside", I punch his arm.
"Aaaand your personality is literally half Yong-sun. I know you *breathes* inside out by now", he winks devilishly at me.
"You're disgusting. Get your butt off the bed, so I can fix it back up", I slap his foot.
"Ouch! You're so mean", he mocks me and I roll my eyes.
"I'm gonna meet you at school." He waves goodbye.
"Wait! What do you mean at school?" I question him.
"You'll see", he answers.
"What do you mean we'll see?" I pout, because he doesn't answer my second question.
What have I gotten myself into?
