"You were the one who opened the chocolate milk in the first place! Besides how was I supposed to know she was on her period?!" Jisung said.

At this point they had forgotten that the others were still in the room.

"Well I'm not psychic! Did you think I knew?!"

"You're both idiots." Renjun finally said. "Absolute idiots." Haechan added.

So she was on her period, that explains the emotions, Jeno and Mark thought at the same time.

Jaemin frowned and looked in the direction of the kitchen. The boys noticed his sudden quiet behaviour, at first they were a little confused but eventually they understood.

Jaemin has been the last one to finally want to be with Jieun, even though he had already made the decision earlier.

That meant that he hadn't really gotten to spend any time with her.

The others looked at each other. Renjun, Jeno and Mark nodded but the other three didn't move.

Mark narrowed his eyes at them, Haechan rolled his eyes before nodding while Jisung and Chenle reluctantly nodded a while after.

They all stood up, causing Jaemin to look at them in confusion. Mark smiled at him before patting his shoulder.

"Stuff came up, we have to go. Keep Jieun company, we better not start crying out of nowhere." He said, though the last part sounded more like a threat than a warning.

"Don't eat any of her chocolate!" Chenle warned him.

"Try not to make her upset, or sad! But if you do then just kiss her!" Jisung said, earning a slap in the back of the head from Jeno.

"Dumbass." Jeno muttered, "Don't stress her out Jaem." He said to Jaemin as he dragged the two youngest out with him.

"Good luck dude." Haechan said, before making his way to the kitchen.

Mark rolled his eyes before quickly grabbing Haechan's hoodie.

"Awww! At least let me say goodbye! I missed her today!" He whined. Mark sighed, "Fine." He said as a small smile appeared on his face.

Haechan cheered as he ran to the kitchen. Leaving behind a smiling Mark and utterly confused Jaemin.

...

"Hey." Haechan said as he gently hugged the girl from the back. Jieun flinched but relaxed and smiled.

"Hey Hyuck." She replied softly. Haechan smiled at the mention of his nickname, he would never get tired of it.

"We have to go, something came up." He said with a pout, mentally rolling his eyes at Marks lame excuse.

"Oh."

Haechan tightened the hug and rested his chin on her shoulder. "Jaemin's going to stay here, but we'll see you later." He said in an attempt to make her feel better.

Jieun smiled and nodded, understanding that they all wanted her and Jaemin to spend some time together.

Without saying anything else, Haechan turned Jieun around so that she was facing him. The girl looked at the older boy in confusion.

He stared at her fondly before taking a strand of her hair and tucking it behind her ear.

"Jieun," He started softly, "I want you to know that we all care about you and love you very much. If anyone ever says otherwise, just give them a hard slap in the face and then find one of us and give us big hug, and we'll hug you back." He said seriously.

Jieun's eyes widened. What was it with these boys and slapping people?!

She slowly nodded and she wrapped her head around what he said. Haechan chuckled seeing her confused state at his sudden request.

He pulled her into a hug, "I love you." He whispered as he hugged her.

For a second, his insecurities came back. Would she love them like she said she would? Would she leave them alone and heartbroken? Did she even love them?

However all of them were broken the moment Jieun wrapped her arms around him, returning the hug.

"I love you too." She whispered to the boy, causing him to hug her tighter.


Awww, my heart.

SORRY!

I have to apologize for two things.

One, I'm sorry that it took so long to put out this update. I took an unexpected hiatus and didn't update any of my books which I am sorry about.

Two, I'm sorry for making broken promises. I always tell you guys that I'll update soon or there is an update coming soon but then it never comes. It makes me feel really guilty because I feel like I'm letting you guys down.

Thus, I will not be making anymore promises. My updates will speak for themselves. Thank you so much for supporting this book even after I took so long to update.

Don't forget, if you have any thing you want to see happen between Jieun and the boys then please let me know and I'll try my best to make it happen!

Also if you feel like a certain character is not being mentioned enough please let me know.

Hope you guys liked this chapter! Please stay safe and healthy!!!
❤️❤️❤️
