hayeonNO???

"come in," hayeon sniffled, quickly rubbing her tear stained face one more time to try and erase any trace of the fact that she had been crying.

she wasn't entirely sure why she was trying to pretend she hadn't cried, sunghoon had seen it happen himself. but something about it made her feel incredibly vulnerable and that was the last thing hayeon wanted to feel in that moment.

sunghoon poked his head in her room timidly, as if his mere presence could send her bursting into tears yet again.

"you can come in hoon," hayeon laughed, attempting to lighten the clearly heavy mood.

"i'm really sorry hayeon," sunghoon blurted out the second he stepped foot in her room, his head hanging low.

"why?" hayeon titled her head in confusion. he had done nothing wrong but be nice and considerate towards to her, she was the one with the fucked up emotional issues.

"i don't know," the boy sighed, "jake told me some things and it just made me realize that i haven't been fair to you in the way i've acted."

"what the fuck did jake say," hayeon panicked, already mentally preparing herself to beat jake's ass the minute he stepped back into the house.

"nothing bad!" sunghoon reassured her, although he wasn't planning on telling her the full truth anyways. jake had finally told him the whole story, most importantly about how hayeon felt.

or, how she used to feel.

it was clear to sunghoon that she no longer held those same feelings, she was literally dating someone else. however, he couldn't help but mentally kick himself for not doing or saying something before then.

hayeon was one of the best people he had ever met, and sunghoon envied anyone who had the opportunity to call her their girlfriend. he knew junseo was a nice guy, and that he treated her incredibly well, but he would never be able to let go of the small bit of resentment towards hayeon's boyfriend that stayed in the back of his head. even though he was the one who messed up, a part of sunghoon couldn't push away the feeling like it still should be him she was dating, him she was kissing.

"jake just knocked some sense into me finally," sunghoon continued, trying to give hayeon an explanation in the vaguest way possible. "i promise i'll be a better friend to you from now on."

friend. hayeon tried her hardest not to cringe at the word coming out of the boy's mouth. but that's all that they were, and she needed to accept that.

"i really appreciate you being there for me hoon," hayeon sighed, too emotionally exhausted to leave her guard up. "i'm sorry if i freaked you out."

"my first impression of you was a drunk girl texting the wrong number and rambling about her night to me, you could never scare me off," sunghoon playfully shoved the girl, sending her a grin after thinking about that night.

things were so much simpler between them back then, a part of him wished it could've stayed like that.

throwing her arms around him impulsively, hayeon squeezed sunghoon tight as she hugged him, not wanting to let go. no matter what bullshit situation they may be in he still found a way to cheer her up, to make her laugh. he would always understand her on a level that very few other people did.

and it was in that moment, as hayeon sat in her bed with her arms wrapped around him, that she realized she didn't think she could ever get over sunghoon.

she was fucked.
