"Hey." Beomgyu said as he found Kai waiting outside the mall.

"Hey, Beoms." 

"Kai, why did you use that caption for the picture of me and Soobin yesterday???"

"Because that's what I think about it." Kai said simply. "Oh, look, here come the others now." 

Beomgyu turned around to see Taehyun and Soobin coming towards them. 

"Fine. We'll talk later."


*Beomgyu's pov (First person)*


I wandered off from the others to look around. I walked around the clothes section, stopping to look at something sometimes. But then something else caught my attention. I felt my lips twist into a slow smile.

"Yeonjun!" I said, rushing over to where the older boy stood. He turned towards me with a raised eyebrow.

"Are you following me?" He asked. "I feel like everywhere I go now, I see your annoying face."

"I'm here with my friends. It also wasn't my idea to come in the first place," I shrugged with a grin. "Talk about coincidences, huh?"

Yeonjun just sighed and turned away, but I grabbed his arm.

"Want to look around with me?" I asked.

"No."

"Please?"

"No." Yeonjun tried jerking his arm away, but I clinged on.

"Please?"

"No!"

"Please, please, please, plea-"

"Oh my god. Fine!" Yeonjun said, fully jerking his arm away now. I grinned.

"Come, come." I grabbed his hand and led him around. At first he tried pulling his hand away, but I wouldn't let go so eventually he gave up.



"So, which one do you think looks better?" I asked, holding up two shirts.

Yeonjun shrugged. "Why are you asking me?"

"I always ask my boyfriend's opinion." I said simply with a shrug.

"But I'm not your boyfriend." Yeonjun said with an annoyed look.

"Not yet." I grinned. Yeonjun cursed me under his breath and walked away. I grinned and followed.

After a bit of walking around, we sat down at one of the tables that were scattered around the food court.

"What do you want?" I asked, looking at Yeonjun.

"Why the hell are you doing this?" Yeonjun asked. "I still think it's to prove something."

"It's not." I assured him for the second time. "I really do like you."

"Why?" Yeonjun demanded.

"It's hard to explain..." I said, my voice trailing off. "But I just need you to understand I do care, okay?"

"I can't understand and I fucking won't." Yeonjun snapped.

"Why? Is it so hard to believe that someone might actually love you?" I asked quietly.

Yeonjun sighed. "It's not that easy, alright? I suggest you go find someone who actually likes you."

"Why can't it be you? I want it to be you." I insisted, not meeting his gaze.

"Don't waste your time."

"I am and I will." I looked up at him. "I can't just give up."

"Why not?! Is it so hard to believe that I don't love you?" Yeonjun demanded. I sighed, my heart aching slightly.

"Why don't you? Am I a horrible person?"

"It's not that." Yeonjun insisted. "I can't love you and I fucking don't. I have a role to play in life, and it doesn't include you."

"But it can!" I sighed. "Is this because of who your father is?"

"Yes. It is, okay?" Yeonjun snapped. "How do you think he would feel if I dated you, hm?"

"Isn't it okay for you to love?" I asked. "The reason you're here today is because he loved someone."

"It's not that. He wants me to date a girl. He wants me to keep the line going, okay?! I. can't. love. you."

"But I love you. And I'll continue to until you see that. Please, just give me a chance."

Yeonjun tore his hands through his hair with a loud sigh. "I'm not giving you a chance."

I nodded. "Alright. But I'm not giving up."

Yeonjun stood. "You're just wasting your time."

He walked away and I watched him go, laying my head on my arms, closing my eyes.



A couple minutes later someone tapped my shoulder, and I raised my head to see Soobin standing over me.

"There you are." Soobin said. "Why did you wander off?"

I plastered on a fake smile. "Just looking around."

Soobin sat down on the seat Yeonjun had been sitting at. "You need to save me. Taehyun and Kai have been flirting and I think I'm going to kill myself if I have to deal with any more of it alone."

I grinned. "Flirting, huh? Did they admit they like each other?"

Soobin shook his head. "Nope. And I don't want to be there alone to have to deal with it if they do!"

Soobin grabbed my arm and I let him lead me away.
