Chaeyoung

"T-that.."

They raised their brows at me as they waited for me to speak. I took a deep breath and started to explain.

"He kissed me, yes, but it was only on the cheek. Okay?"

"Hmm.." Lisa smirked. "Why do I feel like you're disappointed?" A scowl etched on my face before deciding to ignore her.

"And I don't know why he did that." I added.

"He did that because he likes you, of course!" Lisa giggled.

"He doesn't like me, okay?"

"Why would he kiss you on the cheek, then?" Jennie asked and I was lost for words. She raised a brow at me. "See?"

My heart suddenly started to beat abnormally.

"Does.. he r-really like me?" I stuttered.

"Do you like him, Chaeyoung?" I was taken aback when I heard what Jisoo said. I looked at her, speechless. A mix of concern and seriousness can be seen on her face.

"Unnie, I.."

"Be honest with us. Okay?" I bit my lip. I can feel my heart beating so fast.

"I-I had a crush on him when I was in sixth grade.." after telling that, an exaggerated gasp escaped Lisa's mouth while the two were just silent.

"And you didn't tell me!"

"And we just learned about it now?" Jennie asked. I sighed, feeling a bit guilty.

"I'm sorry. I didn't tell you guys about it since it was just a mere crush." I told them, looking down and playing with my fingers.

"But we told you about our crushes!" Lisa complained.

"Sorry," I mumbled.

"Well.. how about now?" Jisoo calmly asked. "Do you have feelings for him?"

I got stunned. Do I have feelings for him?

"No."

I looked up to them when none of them responded and found them looking at me like they don't believe what I said, making me sigh.

"It's true, okay? And if I ever start liking him, I'd tell you right away." I told them. A smirk curved on Lisa's lips.

"So you think you would like him?" She said, obviously teasing me. Damn it, this girl doesn't really stop teasing me.

"I want you to be careful, Chaeyoung." A frown appeared on my face when I heard what Jisoo said. She's looking at me seriously before a small sigh escaped her lips.

"I don't want you getting hurt."

"Aish, I'm already tired."

Lisa complained as she breathe heavily with both of her hands on her waist. Seconds later, she raised her right hand to call for Mr. Kim, our P.E teacher.

"Sir, can Chaeyoung and I take a break?" She asked that made our classmates look at her.

"Sure! Everyone, take a short break first. We'll play again in ten minutes." Mr. Kim announced.

"Sir! Make it twenty minutes!" Hyejin said and everyone suddenly convinced Mr. Kim.

"Fifteen minutes." He said before turning his back against us. Lisa and I laughed together before making our way to the bleachers where we left our belongings. But my brows furrowed in curiosity when I saw two familiar guys sitting on the first step of the bleachers.
