Chances - Kim Yugyeom

Together (10)

---------
Yugyeoms POV
----------

I turned to face her, both of us looking at each other...I couldn't stop staring,
our faces were only inches apart...
I like her...so much

Tell her.
Just spit it out already Yugyeom.

"I think I like you"

I said it
I finally admitted it,
it felt like a weight lifted off my shoulders
But she...she likes someone else...she said it herself

As those words escaped my mouth, her expression changed, her eyes widened and she looked at me without blinking for a few seconds, surprised at my few words

Then she sighed, turned her head to the side, took a deep breath and looked back to me
"Don't joke around"

Hearing her say that hurt, why doesn't she believe me?..

"I'm not..."

"Why did you say sorry..?"
She quietly mumbled looking down

I thought you didn't like me in that way...what else could I have done..

I slowly lifted my head up from the couch to respond to her question
"Because"
"Because..."

I tried to say it...but I couldn't get the words out...
I know what's going to happen if I admit it ...
she'll just leave me for someone else.

------

She looked at me and sighed again, then turned to face forward toward the door, leaning back against the couch
"Exactl-"

"Beca...
"because I thought you didn't like me."
I cut her off and mumbled, looking down, although it was loud enough for her to hear

A minute passed,
her face slowly turning  slightly pink,
as her eyes and mouth widen once again, in shock, turning slowly to face me

Diana's POV
------

I lifted my head up from the couch and faced yugyeom, I stared at him, his blushy cheeks, his fluffy hair and replayed those words in my head continuously...
Realising what had just happened.

My heart thumping from the realisation

"Yugyeom..." A smile slowly escaped my face, without me realising
As I felt a single tear drip down my face...

"Diana, you're crying"
Yugyeom lifted his head up and came closer, wiping my tear away with his thumb with a look of concern and worry

My smile widened at his actions, our faces getting closer, as my heart started to race even more...
I looked back at him as I found myself staring
whilst some words escaped my mouth

"I like you too"

He stopped moving at the sound of my words..
As his gaze moved from my face and moved upward to my eyes, his warm hand still on my face...a familiar feeling,
his face turning red by the second...
We sat in the same position for a few seconds until I leaned in and pecked his cheek, then hugged him with my arms wrapped around his neck
