"I'm sorry about yesterday." Hyunjin said.

"It's o-okay." Elle replied quietly.

"Listen, I was drunk and acted really rude after. I probably shouldn't have just kissed you the first time we met, but it happened and I'm sorry. Can I try to make it up to you?"

"W-what do you mean? I told you that I like you and you kissed me, now you are saying sorry?" Ella questioned.

"Technically, I figured it out, you didn't tell me." Hyunjin chuckled.

"Hyunjin." I entered the room.

"So can I make it up to you?" Hyunjin repeated, ignoring me.

"How?" Ella looked at him.

"Let me take you on a date." He smiled at her.

"Date??" I repeated after him, but neither one of them seemed to pay attention to me.

"We can start over as friends and see what happens." He said looking slightly awkward.

"S-sure." She blushed and smiled cutely.

'Is she stupid-'

"Will you guys acknowledge my presence or no?" I leaned on the doorframe.

"Yes, hyung. Thanks for trying to interrupt." Hyunjin looked at me with a bored expression.

I raised my brow and looked at Ella who still didn't seem to acknowledge my presence.

'I had to baby sit this girl yesterday to be treated like this? Unbelievable, Kim Ella.'

"Then maybe tonight at seven? I'll pick you up." Hyunjin looked at her again.

"Sounds good. I'll get going I guess." She smiled and waved at him while leaving the room.

'Did she just ignore me!?'

"Don't play with the girl." I sighed and shook my head.

"Who said I'm playing? I kinda like her." Hyunjin smirked and looked down.

"Hwang Hyunjin likes a girl? You've got to be kidding me." I chuckled.

"Why? Do you have a problem with that?" He got up and walked towards me.

"Oh no, not at all. Just don't forget to tell Seungmin about your sweet date." I grinned at him as he rolled his eyes and walked out of the room.

Ellas pov:

The car ride with Seungmin, Chan, and Jeongin was rather quiet. The two cousins seemed to notice the tension between Seungmin and I and stayed quiet.

Chan dropped us off at home and drove to his with Jeongin. We entered the house, still in silence, and as I was about to head up to my room Seungmin called me.

"Ella."

"What?" I looked at him.

"What's with Hyunjin?" He sighed.

"I like him." I sat on the couch in the living room.

Seungmin sighed again and sat beside me.

"Ella, let me tell you, he's not serious about relationships. And you realize you met him yesterday, right? And on top of that you kisse-"

"He kissed me." I cut him off.

"Even better." Seungmin shook his head in disappointment, "Listen, I don't want you to get hurt, so please think before you do something." He said and looked at me with concern.

My brother really cared for me and I knew it, but sometimes he cares too much. It's my life and I can make my own decisions.

"Minnie listen-"

"It's your decision, but don't make a stupid one. Hyunjin is a great guy when it comes to friendship, but please, stay away from him when it comes to love." He gave me a small smile.

I sighed and shook my head signaling that I understand what he said and started making my way to my room.

'How am I supposed to tell him I'm going on a date with Hyunjin tonight, even if its as friends..'
