Nuh-uh, don't blame the boy, y'all.
_
"Hey!" This voice startled me. I had been minding my own business, and suddenly, a stranger was standing in front of me.
As I glanced up to see who it was, I was surprised to see it was a boy. "Can we be friends?" he asked, and I was immediately taken aback by his sudden eagerness.
To his delight, I enthusiastically accepted his invitation and quickly agreed to his request. After all, I only had two other friends, Minji and Danielle, so an opportunity to make a new one was an instant "yes" from me.
Well, to be honest, I only have two close friends, which are Minji and Danielle. I don't mind making new friends, so it's okay for me to accept this boy's proposal. However, I guess I was a bit surprised by how easily and quickly he asked me to be his friend. I mean, after all, we just barely know each other.
Me and the boy I just met got the chance to hangout together. He seems really nice and fun to hangout with, which was quite unexpected. I didn't expect this to happen due to my previous experiences where the people I first met were so shy and reluctant to make a move or hangout with me, but that's okay as I can understand their perspective.
I'm more of an extrovert myself, so I had no issues in initiating and engaging in conversations with new people.

"So, tell me about yourself," the boy, whom I met recently and goes by the name Jay, spoke. Even his name fits him perfectly, as he is not only handsome but also extremely attractive. Nevertheless, he is nowhere close to being as attractive as Minji, and she will always remain in my heart.
"Umh, I'm 20 years old. What about you?" I replied, smiling widely at him. However, he just kept staring at me directly in the eyes, which became awkward.
So, I waved my hand in order to get his attention, prompting him to respond.
"I guess you're right, I'm just staring at you, because I'm so in awe of how beautiful you are," Jay finally replied.
"Oh stop it," I giggled, although deep down I was flattered by his compliment.
"What? Don't you see yourself? Your beauty is unsurpassed, and your personality is truly attractive," Jay replied, smiling warmly at me.
"Well, you're not so bad yourself," I chuckled, feeling flattered by how he was making me blush.
Jay smirked at my comment and then replied, "Good to know."
Jay and I continued conversing for a while, and I was enjoying myself despite my nerves and butterflies in my stomach. It seemed like he was genuinely interested in getting to know more about me.
Minutes passed....
"May I ask you something?" Jay inquired, tilting his head curiously towards me.
"Sure, ask away," I replied, intrigued by his question.
"Do you have a boyfriend or a partner?" It seems like he wanted to know more about my personal life, and I wondered where this was going.
"Ah, no I don't have but I have a crush which is a girl." I replied.
"Ah, I see. You mind if I ask who that special someone is? I won't tell a soul. I promise," Jay said, looking at me patiently, awaiting my response.
"Secret."
Mhm, I still don't trust him enough so I don't believe him.
"Okay... I respect your privacy!" Such a gentleman like him. Okay, I like him, no like as a friend. Of course I love his personality!
┆ 6 days passed ┆
It's been 6 days and this boy is making me fall in love with him, yeah. No lie, he's walking greenflag and he's my standards.
"Hey, Hanni. Wanna hangout?" Yeah, we kept hanging out with each other and I accepted it because there's no reason to say 'No' to the greenest flag man like him.
I spotted Minji in the vicinity. She looked like she was quite sad and despondent, so I walked over to her and asked, "Is everything okay?" She approached me and gently embraced me from behind.
"Why haven't you been hanging out with me for the past six days?" Minji inquired with pouty lips. "So you could hang out with that someone you met? Just because you met someone doesn't mean you should forget me."
I felt a tingle in my stomach as I glanced at her pouty lips. Although we're just friends, I admit that her pouty lips are so tempting and alluring that I wanted to kiss them. However, I remembered that we were just friends and remained calm and composed.
Yeah, the day I met Jay. I stopped hanging out with Minji and we barely talked.
"I'm sorry," is all I can say to Minji, feeling unsure if my apology was sufficient after six days of silence between us
On one hand, I began to feel that my feelings for her were fading. But on the other hand, I weren't sure whether I still had strong feelings for her or not.
"Sorry?" she asked, irritated, "Do you expect me to forgive you only for that? You used to talk to me everyday, and now you're silent. You only stopped talking to me because you met the guy named Jay, right?" But it wasn't his fault; I were starting to develop feelings for him. So it wasn't easy to deal with all these conflicting emotions at once.
"So you like the guy because he's your 'type?' No consideration for his character or personality, just because you think he fits some stereotype? And you forgot all about me, our friendship, and relationship just like that? I don't believe what I'm hearing." She said.
I began to have suspicions about Minji's behavior. Why was she suddenly behaving like this?
Jealous..? jeal..-
Could it be that she was jealous? Of course! It makes sense that she would be jealous of Jay, as he had taken so much of my attention since we first met. I knew she felt like that, as a friend would.
But hey, I can finally give up.
I'm losing interest in you, Minji...
I don't know if I'm still in love with you because you don't even love me more than a friend.
it's been 2 years, 2 years having a crush on you! I have been giving you a big hint that I love you.
Are you numb...?
I guess we're just gonna stay friends, forever.
"I'm sorry, Minji."
"Minji?" my thoughts were flooding with different emotions as she spoke. "You called me 'min' or 'baby bear'. Are you mad at me?" She questioned.
She leaned her head against my shoulder, and I felt butterflies in my stomach.
However, I quickly shook those feelings of excitement away as I remembered that we were only friends.
Afterwards, I responded, "No. And I've got to go now because Jay is waiting for me."
She sighed when I pulled away, but I had to set my feelings aside. I'm just friends with her, right? And Jay was waiting for me. I was beginning to like him and enjoy our time together.
I smiled at her as I turned away and walked towards Jay, who was standing a little ways away.
Minji's pov
Her last word before leaving me alone was "Goodbye, Minji." Her tone was cold, and I was now alone, feeling broken and betrayed. She was with Jay.
I didn't know what to make of the situation. I was confused and angry. I didn't understand why Hanni was avoiding me suddenly, and I couldn't help but feel jealous because she had chosen Jay.
I didn't know what to do to make things right between us, but I was determined to do my best to fix this mess.
Did I do something wrong?? Maybe I did. But I didn't think she'd see it that way. She's acting all strange with me and being all cold. She didn't even want to have a chance to talk or hang out in private.
I've had some suspicions, but I didn't want to believe it was true until now. That Jay kid has stolen her heart right under my nose without me even realizing it!
As I stared into my thoughts, I realized that it was too late. She was already attracted to Jay and had her in mind with him. She was so swept away by his charms and personality that she wouldn't even give me a chance to talk about what happened between us.
I couldn't blame her for being attracted to Jay; he was indeed quite charming and attractive to anyone. But still, I couldn't help but feel betrayed and jealous that she had chosen him over me so easily.
Hours passed
I thought to myself, as I sat outside the school, near the gate. I wanted her to hug me, kiss me in the cheeks, or... maybe lips? Nah, we were just friends. Cheeks only. But I think I l-
Someone interrupted me.
That's when Heeseung arrived - he sat beside me and started patting my shoulder softly as he asked what was wrong.
I explained the reason for my sadness which was the matter of her and Jay. He was listening to it carefully, assuring me that it was okay and that I should cheer up.
"Perfect timing, I guess," he said to me, "A lot of the people are going to a party, like our friends, Felix, Danielle, and Haerin. Do you wanna come with me, Minji? I think you'd forgotten your problem and sadness there."
"Yeah, I'm in," I responded, feeling a little better. I believed that attending the party would definitely help me to forget my problem and sadness.
---[ At party ]---
As I arrived at the party, I could see all our friends already there. Felix was hosting a game called "Truth or dare" and we just nodded at it, since it was fun and the dares were not that serious.
The game was simple. We would spin the bottle if it's our turn and whoever it pointed out would do the dare or pay at least 5 dollars. And guess what, it landed right on me.
Heeseung, with his devilish smile on his face, told me that I have to drink a medium glass filled with beer. "Do it, or you'll have to pay," he told me.
Since I didn't have money on me, I didn't have any choice but to drink the glass of beer.
I started to drink it slowly, as I felt its bitter taste and smell. I couldn't believe it that I had to do this, but what else could I do other than drink it?
As I kept drinking and drinking, I could feel the alcohol rushing inside me. I started to feel so dizzy and my sight was getting blurry. I couldn't believe that I had let myself drink this much alcohol for a stupid dare.
"Minji, wake up!" Danielle was persistently calling to me, trying to wake me up.
I didn't want to leave the party because I was having fun. I wanted to forget about the past and the person I had been thinking about.
"If I can't wake you up, then I will call Hanni..." she whispered to herself, but I was too drunk to completely hear what she had been saying.
Her phone was ringing. I was so out of it, that I couldn't care less about the noises going on around me.
After a few minutes, a soft voice was waking me up. I tried to open my eyes to see who it is and it's... Hanni.
She's like an angel to my eyes.
I smiled like an idiot because of my drunkenness, not even realizing that she was there to pick me up from the party.
"Minji, you idiot! Why did you drink this much?" Hanni said to me with an angry and concerned look on her face. "Do you want to make yourself drunk? It's not good for you."
"Don't be mad, Han-i...." I mumbled as I tried to get up to my feet. My head was spinning, and my vision was blurry, but the sight of her made me feel something.
As I stood up shaking, then pinned her against the wall, not caring about the people at the party.
My eyes were locked on her lips, which were so kissable. Could their softness and smoothness actually be true? I intended to find out.
I leaned closer, our breath mixing, our lips inching closer to each other.
"Min--" she said before I abruptly covered her lips with mine. Our kiss was surprising but pleasurable, and I couldn't help but close my eyes to savor every moment.
Our lips remained pressed together, and I was getting lost in the sweetness of it all. Her lips were delicious but would only be more so if they were still connected to mine.
I pulled away eventually, breaking the kiss, but I couldn't take my eyes off her lips. The sensation of kissing her was too alluring, and I wanted more from her delicious lips.
I leaned back in for another kiss, my lips finding hers as our tongue tangled together. As our kiss deepened, I pulled her closer, our bodies pressing closely together as I caressed her from neck down to her waist.

I'm kinda lazy to fix something-
