"okay so I'll go first, truth or dare, Hyun? ", issabell said.
"truth"
"Lee Hyun.... Do you have a secret girlfriend?"
"yeah, and 5 kids too", he said sarcastically
"then how come you are always on your phone?", maple asked.
"a kid does not need to know", he said patting her head to which she whined, a frown forming on her face.
her bond with my freinds makes my heart melt. They continued to quarell for a few minutes. Then it was Jin hyungs turn.
"truth or dare?", Lee Hyun asked.
"dare, obviously"
"give me your phone"
"waeee?! "
" u have been smiling at the screen too much lately, and I wanna know why"
"yaah!! , did you forget I am older than you - you punk"
"so?", Hyun said boldly.
All of us hooted.
Hyun and I scrolled through his chats and sns, but nothing suspicious was found.
"seee, my oppa is innocent!", maple said, siding with him.
" then what was all the smirking for? ", I asked.
"I probably saw a joke or a meme"
"and why have you been talking too eunaa recently?", Hyun said.
"eunaa!?", I yelled in shock.
"yeah see", Hyun showed me their chats.
"hyung why are you asking her if she had dinner, wth... And u fuking sent you hearts!!?", I half Screamed, feeling betrayed.
Wth eunaa. U are dead.
"who is eunnaa???", maple asked. Even a blind person could tell she was jealous. I smiled at her cruosity.
'Cute'
'snap out of it Tae, ur sister and your best friend have been texting behind your back'
"Tae Jun, calm down!! I can explain..... I like your sister and she likes me too and well - I love her. I didn't mean to hide from you. I was scared of how you'll react", he spoke.
" let's talk about this later", I said and gave him a death glare. He gulped.
A few more cans of beer and I felt the alcohol taking over.
"okay so may, your turn", issabell said "- truth or dare".
"truth"
"that night... when you met the guys for the first time, you reached here drenched and your eyes were all red and puffy like you had been crying for days..... What happened then, you never told me"
"whatt, she was crying!! ", I said. The members gave me odd looks.
"ummm.. That day, Noah had made plans with me for dinner but some work came up.... I got stood up basically for a millionth time and aaahhh.... That's embarrassing to say out loud. U know, that night I finally had gotten over him..... That - It was a relief and then that night, I spent it with these handsome men and you... Hehehehe... It was fun ",she said smiling at the memory.
'that jerk'
" - and then..... I slept with another guy that night", she said.
I froze.
What the hellllll
"a guy who I officially met for the first time that day...."
"may, are you serious!!!, what do you mean, who ??? ", issabell Screamed in shock.
It felt like the earth had shifted from underneath my feet. I was heartbroken.
"Tae Jun!", maple called my name out of nowhere.
I turned my head in her direction.
Everyone was waiting for her to say something. The anticipation had no limits.
A shy smile crossed her lips and she said, "I slept next to you that night"
"what!", I said my eyes wide. She didn't break our eye contact and bit her lower lip.
Everyone was gasping, while Hyun laughed like an idiot.
" don't judge me okayyyy, I was drunk and I just fell asleep trying to get him to sleep", she spoke in a whining tone.
During all this, I think I forgot how to breathe.
Issabell started gently slaping and punching maple's arm.
"my turnn", she squeled.
"OK so Tae, truth or dare"
"dare"
" OK..... Ummmmm.. Kiss the person who you love the most in this room", she said boldly.
"on the cheek, though", she added, giggling.
" it's obviously me, I practically raised these kids", Jin Hyun said confidently. He brought his cheek closer to me.
"nahhh, what are you talking about, I am his best friend after all ", Lee Hyun argued.
Giddily maple clapped her hands together in amusement , enjoying every second of the argument.
'fuck it'
By now, my brain was completely intoxicated. In lightening speed, I crawled up to my lady, cupped her face. Staring dead into her glowing orbs for a second, I captured her soft cherry lips. The second I felt her lips on mine, the whole world went into a blur.
The warm long kiss left us both short of breath.
Our friends were left speechless. Every one was silent.
"I don't know if you are acting dumb or something, but I like you Tae.I really really really like you, and I don't know how to stop it", she said.
I placed a finger on her lips.
"sssshhhh"
"don't stop.....Don't stop liking me
I like you too maple willow. I also really really really like you - even the thought of not seeing you suffocates me. I can't imagine my life without you"
She looked at me stunned , her cheeks a deep shade of Crimson. Taking her hand in mine, I placed it in my lap.
"let's date ", I said
"are we srsly invisible to these mfs", Jin hyung said.
