Money or Love? (SunghoonXreader)

Part 16 || confess

Sunghoon's POV

Y/n walked in front of me while I stared at her back. Her long hair covering the hood of my jacket and her long arms dangled beside her.

Jake: "aren't you gonna say something?" I breathed deeply not even sure what I would say if I got the chance to talk to her.

Sunghoon: "I'll talk to her later..."

-

Sunghoon: "y/n I'm sorry" I stared down at her small figure while she looked away avoiding my gaze "I wasn't thinking straight and I-"

Y/N: "you know that was my first kiss right?" I felt an instant wave of guilt. That was my first kiss too but I just couldn't say that.

Sunghoon: "I didn't, that's why I'm apologizing-"

Y/N: "apology accepted" I looked at her as if she said something outrageous. That fast?

Sunghoon: "wait really?"

Y/N: "yeah it's fine" she sighed placing her hands in her pockets. She walked past me and I followed walking beside her. The wind against our faces was pleasant and the quiet surroundings made it even better. "Can't believe we're graduating in a month" she said nonchalantly

Sunghoon: "are you hoping for anything to happen?" She pressed her mouth into a thin line and squinted her eyes a bit thinking

Y/N: "I guess I just want something memorable to happen. Something good of course I don't wanna fall on stage in front of everyone. Not that kind of memorable" I laughed at her while some strands of my hair fell on my eyes making me brush my hair back with my fingers

Sunghoon: "don't worry it will be a good memory" I held her hand in mind and she looked up at me waiting for me to say something. I just gave her a smile and continued walking with our hands together.

<time skip>

After school we walked to a cafe and studied. We did our usual stuff just like last time. It's night now and Yeji and I were eating dinner.

Sunghoon: "when's mom and dad coming back?"

Yeji: "they're with the Sim's parents in Japan for a business trip so probably next week or 2 more weeks idrk..." she poked at her food and played with it. I cut a slice of my steak and ate it in my mouth. I look back at Yeji's plate and she hasn't even touched anything. It just moved from one place to another

Sunghoon: "eat, you're gonna get sick if you don't" I may be cold but I still care for my sister

Yeji: "stop exaggerating" she stabbed a carrot and chewed on it lazily. Instead of speaking up again about her weirdly quiet self I'll just stay quiet

A/N's POV

Yeji: "y/n told me something today" she said out loud for her brother to hear. He was listening but didn't look up to see her "she told me she likes you" Sunghoon stopped his movements and looked up at Yeji. He didn't respond but instead continued eating after he processed what his sister said "that's it? You're not gonna say anything or even react?" He placed his utensils down and leaned back on the chair looking at his sister tiredly

Sunghoon: "what do you want me to do?"

Yeji: "I wanted you to think about it again. Your plan worked, you got her to like you. And apparently you still don't" he glared at her waiting for the next thing she was about to say "what's next huh"

Sunghoon: "you already know my plans I don't need to say it twice" she cursed under her breath. "Although," he paused "I'll be confessing to her on graduation day. I trust you still won't tell her anything right... Park Yeji" he said so sternly Yeji was scared to answer

Yeji: "y-yeah I got it..."

Sunghoon: "great, I'll be upstairs if you need me" due to his loss of appetite, he didn't finish his food and stood up to leave her to eat alone. She groaned grabbing her hair in frustration.

Jake: "so" y/n bounced up when Jake sat on the couch. "When are you confessing to Sunghoon?" He threw a biscuit in his mouth waiting for her to respond

Y/N: "what are you talking about?"

Jake: "don't you like Sunghoon" he said a bit muffled. A few biscuit crumbs fell out of his mouth making y/n scrunch her face up in disgust moving away from him. He covered his mouth and chuckled and jokingly bowed to her as a sign of sorry

Y/N: "yeah but I don't wanna confess first. I'd rather keep it to myself than be rejected"

Jake: "woooooow" he said in a disapproving tone which made y/n turn to him with an eyebrow raised "you seriously need to suck it up. If he rejects you then whatever you can pull any guy you want anyway"

Y/N: "but I don't want just any guy and just- shush this is my business"

Jake: "okay but I'm just saying I suggest you confess" He stood up to put back the pack of biscuits he couldn't finish. I'm never doing that. She thought. "And anyway I think he likes you" she stopped and looked at him while he closed the cabinet door

Y/N: "what makes you say that"

Jake: "y/n please" he scoffed "no guys is that nice to a girl for no reason. Didn't you forget he kissed you in front of everyone today? That just shows he's comfortable showing that in public where rumors can spread. And plus, holding hands seriously? Friends don't just 'hold hands'. That hoodie he gave you, yeah that's his favorite hoodie. No one has worn that except for him. He legit hides it from me when I go to his house so I can't borrow it" she stayed quiet but inside she wanted to roll around with how excited she felt "and also I hope you guys aren't doing anything suspicious" she shot her head up afraid of what he meant.

Y/N: "what do you mean suspicious"

Jake: "come on I can hear him climbing into your room at like 12 in the-" she covered his mouth while he was pouring himself a cup of water. He mumbled a few things that sounded like 'get your hand off me!'

Y/N: "you heard him?!" He gripped onto her wrist and put her hand down

Jake: "did I hear him complain while he fell inside your room? Did I hear you guys arguing about which movie to watch? Did I hear him yell at the tv at 1am? Oh yeah I heard you guys" she sighed with a slight groan while moving away from Jake. She leaned on the counter while holding her forehead and the other holding the edge of the marble counter. She covered her face in embarrassment; she heard Jake chuckle in front of her. He was about to speak but y/n pointed a finger up at him to stop

Y/N: "don't! I get it you know you know I'll be up!" She ran upstairs almost tripping on her way. Jake shook his head chuckling and drank the water he previously poured for himself.
