Everyone was laughing and her eyes were on him. His laughter sounded like a melody to her. As soon as his eyes caught her looking at him, she winked at him and he immediately looked away.
"Hyung, I have to leave early.." Sehun stood up.
"What's wrong? Stay till dinner. Eid made dinner for all. She would be really hurt if you leave without eating.." Chanyeol stopped Sehun. Sehun hesitated at first but he gave in soon enough. He looked down at her again.
"Rae, can you come here for a minute?" Eid called out for her from the kitchen.
Sehun sat down besides Yeol again taking the same seat. She smiled to herself. She stood up and passed them to go to kitchen but not before she intentionally touched Sehun's knees with her hands. Sehun shifted away to her touch.
"Coming Eid.." She ran to the kitchen.
"Were you again making that poor guy uncomfortable?" Eid got the hint looking at Rae's face. A big smile plastered on her face.
Rae sat on the counter and picked up nuts from the jar and stuffed them in her mouth.
"He's such a cutie Eid. Why doesn't he like me?" She pouted.
"Well if you are a little decent around him then maybe. You know that it's that hard.." Eid took the jar away from Rae which made her pout again.
"I don't think so it ever gonna happen. You know it kills me more the disgusting looks he gives to me. It kills me to get his attention more ughh"
Eid just glared at her.
"Thanks for staying. Otherwise I had to eat the food Eid made for you." Chanyeol joked.
"I will tell Eid that you are mocking her cooking.." Sehun laughed with Yeol.
Sehun let out a sigh when he saw the girls came out the kitchen. Eid smiled seeing Sehun. Sehun is like a baby to her. She loves babying this grown ass man. Rae just made a face when Eid went to hug Sehun.
"Aww you haven't been eating! Look how skinny you have become" Rae had been mumbling the exact words Eid always says seeing Sehun.
"Ouch" Rae looked around, Chanyeol just hit her on the head slightly.
"Yah stop!"
"You tell me why your gf baby your friend more than your own sister?" Rae pouted.
"Well if you stop mocking my gf, I will just let it slide that you were trying to seduce my dear friend." Chanyeol raised an eyebrow.
"Yeol! I swear I no.. Ughh Eid told you?" Rae looked at Eid and Sehun smiling and talking to each other.
"That's not the point sis." Yeol rested his palm's on Rae's shoulder. She looked down. "Do you like him? You can tell anything to your brother, you know that, right?"
She nodded. "I am not his type at all, right?"
Before Yeol could answer, they came up to the brother and sister. Yeol ruffled Rae's hair before he walked to Eid. Yeol is such a family man. He back hugged Eid resting his chin on her shoulder.
"Thanks for cooking.." He whispered to her ears before taking seat.
They all sat down. Rae was sitting across Sehun. It was hard not to notice how Sehun kept ignoring her as if she wasn't there. He wouldn't even laugh at her jokes. It made her sad but she was stubborn. It's in her genes. She learned from Yeol that they get whatever they want.
Well if Sehun was ignoring her, she was on the other hand staring at him all the while. If staring could make holes in bodies, Sehun already had a few.
It was just one incident. It's like that. Rae never missed a chance to hit on Sehun. Sehun wouldn't come to their house if he didn't have to.
"Eid, is it because I am his friend's sister? They say guys don't fuck their friends's sisters.."
Chanyeol covered his ears. At this point she had no filter.
"I guess it's girls talk. I am taking my leave.." Yeol laughed to himself before leaving the room.
"Let him come next time. I will see how he ignores me.." Rae mumbled.
"No Rae, you won't do anything.." Eid ran her fingers through Rae's hair.
____
One night Sehun just showed up at their house. Yeol wasn't at home, Sehun knew. Yeol went to Japan with Kyungsoo for a project. Sehun didn't look like he was okay.
"What's wrong?" Eid asked opening the door. Rae ran outside of her room. She stopped on her way seeing his face and something sank inside her seeing that sad face.
"Nothing much. I just had a bad fight with Suho. Can I stay here tonight? I know hyung isn't at home. I called him and he said I can stay.." He really talks in such a soft tone.
"You crazy? Obviously you can stay. You didn't have to call Yeol." Eid let him come in.
Rae wasn't sure if she should approach them or not. She just stood there. She knew he didn't like her and she didn't wanna make everything even worse for him.
"You can stay in Rae's room, she will stay with me" Eid smiled weakly. Sehun nodded.
Rae was silent the whole time but hearing her name, she walked to them.
"No he can't stay in my room! I can't sleep anywhere except my room." She explained.
"Rae...." Eid was cut by Sehun on her mid sentence.
"It's ok. I will stay at some hotel for tonight. Thanks tho.." Sehun was about to stand up.
"Rae! What's wrong! It's just for one night.. "
"Why why? Why would I sacrifice my room for him? He hates me.." Rae couldn't help but broke down in front of him. Sehun stared at her before speaking up. He somewhat feltguilty.
"You don't have to.." He stood up.
"I guess I should leave this situation to you two. You both are adults but none is leaving the house. I locked the door. Yeol wants you to stay here Sehun, not in some hotel. And Rae my room is open, so if you change your mind.. " Eid walked away from them. She smiled to herself in front of her room looking at the two. They two were just standing looking down. This reminded of the time when she used to be so stubborn like Rae and used to dislike Chanyeol and now she keeps his shirt besides her because she can't sleep without him.
"I really can't sleep anywhere else. I wasn't lying" Rae broke the silence.
"No I believe you. I also can't sleep without hugging Sisi"
"Your gf?" Rae looked up at him.
He chuckled. He knew she liked him.
He shook his head "No, my plushie"
"Ohh. My room just has one bed"
"What's that supposed to mean?" He asked confused. More like he tried to act confused. He knew so well what she meant. He's after all an adult.
"Umm you can sleep in my room" She looked away.
"You sure?" He stopped himself from smiling.
She looked at him with big eyes. Did he just consider that as an option?
"Umm hmm. You can sleep." That's Rae so she obviously winked which made him chuckle.
"You sure you won't wake up crying tomorrow morning telling lies that I did something to you?" He raised an eyebrow.
"That's my reputation to you?"
He simply nodded.
"Well you know me so well then" She walked to her room with him following her from behind.
They both lied down and it was really awkward for a while until Rae couldn't help but touch his feet with hers intentionally.
"Sorry umm. It's dark so.." She mumbled.
Sehun was already lying by the edge of the bed. He shifted away more from her everytime her feet touched his. He closed his eyes trying to ignore that.
Eventually Rae felt him stop moving and his breath also became more calm. She looked at his direction and smiled seeing him sleeping. She always liked him and couldn't kill the attraction she felt towards him. Now the tension was too high. She moved closer to him very carefully.
"Why do you hate me so much?" She whispered as she stared at his peaceful face.
All of a sudden he turned around and took her in his embrace. She at first didn't realize that he was still in sleep. She smiled to herself thinking that she was being hold by Sehun. She remembered he just said he has a plushie so maybe he's into cuddling.
"What a cutie. I must take a pic" She thought to herself. She was literally in his arms and she couldn't miss this chance to take a pic to later on bully him. She picked her phone carefully trying not to move too much and make no noise. She didn't want him to wake up.
She smiled as she looked at them on the phone's screen but she immediately bit on her tongue when the phone made clicking sound. He shifted closer to her making her breathing faster. His face was buried in the nook of her neck. His grip on her stomach got tightened.
"Are you having nightmare! What a cutie" She mumbled to herself. She could feel his breathing falling on her skin giving goosebumps down to her figure. He shifted again and she bit on her lower lip because she could feel him against her body. She turned on her phone again and the flash light fell on their faces making Sehun move again and his hand moved up her chest which made her flinch to his touch and she dropped the phone.
"Will you please sleep?" He said in annoyance.
She froze.
"You... Yo.. uou...."
"Hmmm?" He hummed as his lips touched the skin of her neck.
She gulped. "You.. Your hand..."
"Sssh. Sleep. Don't tell anyone about this? I thought you wanted this?"
She mentally cursed. She wasn't in any situation to form a word.
"I don't hate you. I freaking like you but why are you Yeol's sister!"
"YEOL DOESN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT.."
Sehun chuckled.
"Fine, sleep babe.." Sehun kissed the spot his lips were resting on.
She arched her back closing her eyes. She held his hand and moved it again down to her stomach from her chest. He chuckled again.
"Cute.." He whispered.
She bit on her lower lip.
___
She didn't remember when she felt asleep last night but she found herself in the same position from last night, still in his embrace and he still sleeping peacefully. Is it real or a dream? She tried to move away..
"Stay close.." He mumbled in his sleepy voice.
"Oh wow! It's real... Sehun.. Wake up. What if Eid walks on us?"
"So?"
"Wake up?"
"Stay close.." He held her tightly.
