55 | i love you, you love me, but not in the same way

Start from the beginning
                                    

《No, I think it's very sweet.》 Her full lips curl up into a smile, she looks at me with shining eyes and looks back at the photo.

I nervously move my bend leg, I'm embarrassed, my face is burning and the sweat does not help.

《Have you got a fever?》

Chaerin worriedly approaches me.

《You have cheeks that look like two red traffic lights!》

《No-I'm not-》

Her palm presses on my forehead to feel my temperature. I freeze.

《Hmm ...》

How do I explain that I'm burning with embarrassment ... and the desire to kiss her?

She folds her arms and says authoritatively.

《Go lie in your bed.》

《What? But I'm ok...》

《You have a fever, it's better if you rest.》

《Yes, I have a little bit of fever but there is no need to-》 it's been two days since I have it, but it's not serious.

She pulls me by the wrist forcing me to get up from the chair, she brings me to my bed by raising the covers. I feel like a child being forcefully put to bed by one's mom.

I let myself get carried away even though I actually hate being treated like this by Chaerin. When will she understand that she shouldn't treat me like a child? She tucks me in and smiles at me satisfied.

《Ok, now I'll get you something warm to drink.》

《Noona wait.》

I manage to free my arm from the blanket and grab her wrist before she leaves the room.

《Can you lie down a little with me?》

Since she only treats me like a kid, I will take advantage of this in my favor.

《Kook, it's not a good idea.》

《But I'm cold ...》 I pout my lips.

《That's why I want to prepare you something warm.》

I shake my head. 《My stomach is closed, I prefer to get warm in other ways.》

《I'll bring you more blankets.》

《No, I'll end up sweating.》 I tell her to come closer with her finger.

Chaerin scratches her head indecisive, frowning. Raises her arms in surrender.

《OK, whatever.》

She raises the covers to get inside and I spread my arms to welcome her into my arms.

《Uh-uh no physical contact.》

《But this way I won't warm up ...》

Chaerin rolls her eyes but eventually gives up and lies down in my arms, I completely wrap her body. I smile like an idiot. A sense of peace and warmth expands all over my body, I feel so good.

Her head is between my arm and my neck, both of her hands are between us, towards my chest. I squeeze her shoulder to me, but she puts up resistance, so I don't try again.

For moments no one speaks, I can hear our breaths and my heart beating wildly. I am more than sure she hears it.

《You smell good.》 I hear her sniffing softly towards my neck.

《Th-thanks.》 I'm not indifferent to her closeness.

《How do you always smell so good?》

《Well, I have a secret.》 I get close to her ear. 《But when I use soap and hot water together I create a particular substance that washes me.》
