Jeong | 2Yeon

(• Twelve - Scared •)

Jeongyeon's POV

I chuckled slightly, though it was strained. The only thing I could focus on was what I was about to say.

"You first," I said.

Nayeon smiled. "I just . . . I wanted to tell you about Jeonghyeok."

I tensed. "No."

Nayeon shook her head in shock. "You don't want to know?"

I sighed. "I already know. I know everything."

Nayeon backed away slightly.

"Not like that! Just . . ." I took a deep breathe. "I'm Jeonghyeok."

Nayeon raised an eyebrow. "What? No you're not!" She chuckled slightly, the kind of laugh that comes after someone doesn't understand a joke. "Jeonghyeok was my boyfriend, not girlfriend!"

"I'm trans. My name was Yoo Jeonghyeok, now Yoo Jeongyeon. I met you, Im Nayeon, in 6th grade and we started dating in high school."

"What?" Nayeon shook her head.

"What else do you want to know?" I exclaimed. "Our first date was at a shitty restaurant. I could tell you didn't like the food, but you insisted that you didn't care where we were, as long as we were together."

Nayeon started to tear up. "Then why?"

"Why what?"

"Why did you leave?"

My eyes widened. I felt tears come to my eyes as well.

"I was scared." I whispered.

"Of what?" Nayeon pushed.

"You." I said looking up.

"Me?"

"I love you with all my heart and I was scared."
