Taehyung's POV :-
"Uhh!!!" I groaned in frustration before slamming the door of my bedroom. Why did she have to bring up my father's topic? And why on earth does he want to meet me now? He is faking his concern for me but where was he when I needed him the most?
"Sshhh!" A painful hiss escaped my lips as I kicked the bed in anger. Gosh! Calm down! You didn't recover yet! "That girl! She pretends to know everything but in reality she knows nothing. Nothing!" I sat on the bed, huffing out furious breaths while the incident that happened downstairs started flashing before my mind.
"I wish I could."
My mind played her faint voice from before. What did she mean? Letting an exhausted sigh escape my lips, I held my forehead in my palm before rubbing my face a little to ease out another breath. "What's wrong with me? Why do I have to speak beyond required and then regret it?" I kicked the air in frustration before laying down on the bed.
A few hours rolled down and I didn't even realise when I fell asleep. I squirmed around the bed, wanting to squish myself inside the covers but my slumber grew thin and I woke up. Wait! I just slept like that only, then who covered me with this blanket?
I looked beside me and found her sleeping on the left side of the bed, her back facing me. I frowned when I saw a line of cushions between us kept just the way I used to put them before. It's been quite a few days that I stopped doing that, well aware of my sleeping habits as I knew that I was gonna end up on her side anyways but today….today she put that herself.
"Oh! Okay…" I was dejected. I really was. "You want to stay away from me…" I was talking to….her sleeping figure!? I really am going crazy. "It's better for me anyways...I didn't have to put any extra effort to keep you away.." I directed towards her but got no reply.
Of course I won't! She was fast asleep.
"I hate you…" I pointed my finger at her this time. I don't know why but this act of hers really hurt me. Screw you Kim Taehyung….you are growing sensitive day by day. "Did you hear me? I hate-" "Sleep and let me sleep!" I stopped abruptly after hearing her. She is awake and she was listening to me! Her voice was calm yet cold and straightforward.
She never talks to me with that tone!
"I hate you." I hailed again. Hear me out lady and face the truth. Me, Kim Taehyung, hates you, Lee Y/n. I sighed after failing to get any reply from her. She didn't even bother to look at me, leave alone replying. I fisted my hand before laying down again, wanting to sleep the night away but whom am I kidding to?
I ain't getting any sleep. Not when her thoughts keep dancing around my cerebrum and cerebellum. I moved my hand beside me before holding a cushion tightly and then yetted it away at a far corner of the room. There were four to five cushions and I did the same with each one of them, making them land in different corners of the room.
Gone! No more cushions in between!
Craning my neck towards her side, I saw her not making even any slight movement also. Did she sleep this time? Already? I raised my head a little from the pillow, trying to look over her shoulder. Ahh! She is quite far. I sighed before waddling towards her through my back.
Okay! A little more. But why am I doing this?
No reason! Absolutely none!
I dragged my body through the bedsheets and now I was lying close to her. "You have slept for some hours already but I didn't...go get some fresh air if you aren't sleepy but let me sleep!" I shivered unknowingly hearing her ice cold voice all of a sudden. It felt like she had no emotions left to convey through her voice.
Stop talking to me like that!
"Are you somehow mad at me?" I couldn't help but ask her that. She rarely talks to me this way. Damn! She has never talked to me this way! "Even if you are mad, still for you to know that you actually do not stand in a place to be mad...I am the one who should be angry and not the other way round!"
Good job! Self respect not down and ego up!
I waited but got no reply. What the hell?! "You butted into my matters...how can you be the one to show me any attitude?" I was growing frustrated because of her silence. This is too much! I sat up on the bed, looking at her directly. Her body was unmoving, her back still turned towards me.
"Yaah!" I shook her shoulder from behind. No reply! Again! "I didn't want to say things to you…. it just... slipped out of my mouth…" I faltered while making any statement. Dude, why are you even trying? What do you want?
I don't know!
Maybe I want her to talk?! To me…..like she used to!
"Y/nnnn…." I dragged the last word of her name, wanting to grab her attention but failed again. Not getting any more ideas, I laid down, my leg winding around her leg and my left hand went under her waist, holding her close to me. She jolted a little in my embrace and I grinned in happiness, finally getting a reaction from her.
You thought that you can try and be a stone in my vicinity? Sorry, that doesn't work here.
"What are you doing?" She didn't protest to set herself free but didn't give me much access too. Her voice was still the same, cold and rude. "What? Sleeping. You told me to do so." I shrugged my shoulders with nonchalance. "Sleep on your side….not on me!" She sighed.
"I am anyways gonna end up here in the morning…" What the hell am I speaking? I want to slap myself right now but anything to make her talk to me. Yes! It's a fair and square game. She let out another breath of frustration, still not jerking me away as I thought she might do.
Of course she won't! I am still injured.
My chin rested on her shoulder as I looked down at her face. Her eyes were closed and her body was stiff. She wasn't reacting to anything that I was doing. "Y/n…" My voice came out mellow. Not something that I expected! She was breathing softly in my arms but was not responding to me.
"Sorry." My fingers drew patterns on the side of her waist as I talked in a low voice. I know that she was upset with me because of whatever I said to her earlier but what I didn't understand was, why was it affecting me? First I felt guilty and now I am feeling sad because she wasn't talking to me.
Dude! How about seeing a doctor?
She was still silent. What? Now? Cummon reply…. please. "Y/nn…" I shook her again, gently. "Are you really not gonna talk to me?" I pushed my head into her neck. Her skin always feels so soft. "Really?" I rocked her in my arms but she really turned into a stone. She wasn't responding only.
"Yaah! I am getting angry now!" I spoke in a stern voice. "Please talk to me." At this point I was more than desperate to get her into her talking form. Though she never talks much but she never ignores me too.
"Y/NNNNNNN" I yelled in her ear and she jerked away from me. "Aissh! Why are you so irritating? Can't you let me sleep?" She sat up in the bed, glaring at me while poking and stirring her affected ear.
Finally! A reaction!
"Then why were you ignoring me?" "You didn't want me to butt into your matters, right? So I was just minding my own business and sleeping!" She gritted her teeths angrily. My face fell immediately as she kept on throwing angry looks at me.
Y/n's POV :-
Aiiisshhh! This boy! He is again sulking and pouting as if he wasn't just yelling at my face angrily a few hours ago because I was siding his dad. His lips puckered and formed a pout when I yelled at him. I guess he doesn't like it when I behave differently to him but it's completely fine if he yells at me. Wow!
"Now, will you let me sleep or shall I go to some other room?" I wasn't giving in that easily. Not after he hurled stuff at me which really hurt me. He was looking down all this while before locking his gaze with mine. Aiissh! Those eyes. Seems to be so innocent but all that's inside is a devil. A little devil!
"If you had to go to another room only…" His lips quivered as he started speaking. "...then why didn't you do that on the first day? It's not like I told you to choose this room." He twisted his lips, folding his arms in front of his chest. My heart was again fluttering. He is just….so….uggghhhhh!
Stop that already!
He moved to his side of the bed and laid down, turning his back towards me. Good! Stay like that only. I also slept on my side, a smile tugging on my lips as I took a glance of him. "If I accept to meet my father, will everything go back to normal?" I sighed. Just when I thought that he was seriously going to sleep.
"Why do you want things to go back to normal?" This time I questioned him, turning to look at his quizzical face. I seriously wanted to pull his puffed up bread cheeks but somehow controlled myself. "Why not? You don't want?" His eyebrows raised with curiosity.
"You hate me, don't you?" "No." He replied faster than I expected. "I just dislike you." He added. "Both are same." I couldn't help but chuckle. How can someone be this idiotically cute? "No. Both aren't the same." He raised his head and rested it on his left arm.
"When I hated you, I felt like choking you to death….I really hated you that much." I listened to him keenly as he started speaking. "When I started disliking you, which is less than hating you, then I felt like…" His eyes turned big while explaining. "...you are fine...not that bad." I wanted to smile but I didn't. Some times, it's difficult to keep a straight face.
"You started disliking me….then what about now? You like me…?" I dared to put him in an uncomfortable position. "N-No No No…" He replied hastily, flustered by my sudden question. "Then? You love me now?" I tilted my head, smirking to myself.
"What are you? Insane? W-Why would I l-l-love you?" I chuckled when he moved back while stuttering. "That's for you to find out that why you l-l-love me.." I imitated his stuttering before turning back to sleep while leaving him to dwell in his confusion.
I looked at him from the corner of my eyes and saw him sitting with a confused and red face, biting his lips and thinking deeply. Good! Now spend the night overthinking. Serves you right! Idiot!
