"When two people really care about each other, they will always look for a way to make it work, no matter how hard it is."
Summary: Being someone's little sister is hard.... especially when you have an older brother who has a best friend you have a huge crush on and you can't-do anything about it... But little do you know he has a crush on you as well. What will happen?
~~~
"Lesson number one, don't leave me alone at home," Jackson says out of his own mouth and you nodded.
"That's for sure." You agreed and you looked at the tv screen. Everything was fun till suddenly Jackson asks you something catching you completely off guard.
"Hey... Where did you get that sweater?" Jackson asks and you looked down and realized you still had Jaebum's sweater on...
SHIT!
"Why?" You asked him turning the question back at him.
"I swear Jaebum has the same sweater...."
~
As soon as you heard those words leave Jackson's mouth, that's when you felt your heart stop and you felt guilty. Shit, you completely forgot that you even had Jaebum's sweater on in the first place. Damn it! You already screwed up and it hasn't been a full week yet having Jaebum as your boyfriend.
Jackson is about to find out that you are going out with his best friend... This should be interesting... But maybe you could get away with a lie... Just maybe... Only if you are lucky.
"Really... I mean this is Yugyeom's sweater. He let me borrow it during our little date." You smiled even though you knew Jackson probably wasn't convinced... Oh well, it was nice while it lasted with Jaebum...
"Hm, that's funny. Yugyeom and Jaebum should become best friends since they have the same taste in clothes," Jackson says facing back at the tv and you put did a fake laugh.
"Yeah, they should.." Wait did Jackson really just fall for your lie? Did you really just get away with it? Oh, my....
You looked back at the tv and every now and then you would glance at Jackson waiting for him to question you even more. But surprisingly he looked convinced. He even seemed distracted with the tv till...
"Oh yeah, I forgot to ask how was your date with Yugyeom?"
Why does he keep bringing his name up? The more you heard Yugyeom's name the more it made your stomach turn at the fact that your lying to your brother. You hate lying... You guys used to tell each other everything and never kept anything from each other but sometimes the truth hurts... And right now if you were to tell Jackson about Jaebum and you... He would probably kill Jaebum...
"It was pretty good." You lied and Jackson looks over at you and smiles.
"Does that mean you guys are a couple?"
Shit. This lie was going to end up bad... You had that gut feeling...
"Yeah." You said and Jackson got up and smiled. You only said yes because you thought this was the only way Jackson could possibly stop talking about it.... But you spoke too soon.
"Great! I had an idea!" Jackson says excitedly and your eyes widen.
Oh, no... This can not be good...
"What is your idea?" You asked awkwardly... yet scared.
"So I was thinking about going to a road trip to a water park, You, me, Yugyeom, Jaebum, his new girlfriend and a girl I've been talking to name Lisa."
His new girlfriend? What? Wait Jackson has a girl?
"Jaebum has a girlfriend?" You asked and Jackson looks at you. Shit, you didn't want your jealousy to show but you couldn't help yourself.
"Yeah, he has a date today with her. Ah, young love." Jackson says smiling and you cringed at the idea of Jaebum being with someone else who wasn't you. Wait did Jaebum cancel his date with the girl anyway??
"Oh.." Was all you could say and you looked at the tv.
"Call Yugyeom and tell me what he thinks." Well, now you couldn't ignore it...
"Sure..." You awkwardly nodded.
You got up with your phone in your hand and looked down at your phone. This was not going to work at all... This trip was going to go downhill before anything good happens.

"Jackson what!" Jaebum asks in complete shock and you looked at him.
"Well, Jackson wants to go on a road trip to a waterpark with Yugyeom, with your so-called girlfriend, Jackson, a new girl he's talking to, you and me." The moment you mentioned Yugyeom, you looked at Jaebum's face reaction and he looked rather bothered.
"New girlfriend? Who's my new girlfriend? Last time I check you're my girlfriend." Jaebum says now realizing what you said and you shook your head.
"Not me, the girl you were supposed to go on a date with in the first place." You reminded him as you rolled your eyes and Jaebum walks up to you and lifts up your chin to make you face him.
"Why don't we just tell Jackson about us?" Jaebum asks and you quickly looked at him dumbfounded and shoved him.
"Are you crazy! He would kill you and then me," Jaebum should know this by now. Plus you were pretty sure that Jackson has told Jaebum that you were off limits.
"True..." Jaebum mumbles and then there the both of you stood there in complete silence till you suddenly felt your phone vibrating.
"So what do we do?" Jaebum asks you and there was only option the two of you had.... It was to go along with Jackson's plan and just act normal...
"I guess we have to call up our so-called dates and invite them to the water park...." You said and there you noticed Jaebum looking rather uncomfortable probably with the thought that Yugyeom was going to be your date.
"Well, what choice do we have?" Jaebum says finally agreeing and you nodded.
"As much as I hate the idea of you being with someone else, I will swallow my jealousy for a day." You said and Jaebum smiles and gives a quick peck on your lips.
You felt your phone vibrate again and it was a text from Jackson.
Since you're at the store. Do you mind getting more milk, please?
You sighed and looked at Jaebum.
"Pretend you don't know anything about this. Jackson is obviously going to tell you about the road trip idea himself." You said looking at Jaebum and he nods. He gives you one last peck on your lips and you both left off your separate ways.
It sucks sneaking around just to talk to your own freaking boyfriend but it had to be done just for the sake of your relationship.
~
You felt super guilty using Yugyeom as your new little boyfriend but what else were you suppose to do? Yugyeom was your original date but then Jaebum confessed and you couldn't help but accept Jaebum's feelings... Yugyeom is a sweet guy but Jaebum has been your crush for a while now. You didn't want to use Yugyeom but you didn't have much of a choice. If you didn't invite Yugyeom, Jaebum would still probably invite that girl he was supposed to go on a date with and then it would've been awkward... It would be Jaebum, his date, your brother and your brother's date...
"Are you ready?!" Jackson asks as you continue to apply sun lotion on your legs.
"Yeah, yeah yeah." You mumbled as you tried to hid that you were a bit unhappy that you were using a really nice guy...
"Is Yugyeom on his way?" Jackson asks you and at that moment on, you stopped applying sun lotion and grabbed a hold of your phone.
"He should be here any min-" before you could finish your sentence, you hear the doorbell ring.
"That must be him." Wow, Yugyeom has great timing.
You walked over to the door smiling thinking Yugyeom was right behind that door... However the moment you opened that door you didn't see your date, instead, you saw your boyfriend and his date...The girl was beautiful... She could be a model if she wanted to be... She had things you could never compete against.. Her long brown hair reaching down below her shoulder, her long eyelashes curved up like it should, her dimples were popping out making her look like a cute innocent girl and her fashion was just on point...
And on top of all of that.... Just looking at Jaebum and his date stand side by side... They looked like they could make a really cute couple...
"Jaebum... and Jaebum's date... come in!" You smiled even though you hated seeing Jaebum standing next to another girl. You had to act like you weren't bothered... Like this was okay... But clearly, this isn't freaking okay.
"You must be Jackson's little sister! I'm Wendy," she says pulling out her hand for a proper handshake and you looked down at her hand. Not only was she pretty but on top of that.... She was incredibly nice... It was going to be hard to hate a girl like her.
Jaebum is probably going to fall for her today... and leave you by tomorrow... You wouldn't be surprised if it ends that way.
"Nice to meet you, Wendy, I'm Y/N." You smiled and she walks away with Jaebum after the two of you exchanged names and there you were standing there alone and abandoned.
You need Yugyeom now! Not because you wanted to make Jaebum jealous, but because you need to distraction from Jaebum and Wendy. You hated feeling jealous... It's so unlike you. As you were lost in your thoughts the bell rings again and you walked to the door. You opened it and found Yugyeom standing right in front of you with a huge smile. Finally...
"Yugyeom!" You said excitedly and you two pulled each other into a hug. Yugyeom being the cute charming guy he is, he kissed your cheek making your cheeks heat up and you couldn't help but smile.
You weren't going to yell at him for kissing your cheek because there wasn't a reason to. But you could feel certain eyes on you. You glanced at Jaebum and could see him observing you from a distance... With Wendy by his side.
~
She was everywhere he was! In the car you had Jackson as the driver, of course, then you had Jackson date Lisa on the passenger seat. To be honest Lisa was a sweetheart and you're glad that Jackson was talking to her. If anything you were waiting for the two to be much more. Anyways then you had Jaebum and Wendy on the seats behind them and then Yugyeom and you in the seat behind Jaebum and Wendy...You didn't mind at first because you were the back of the car but the problem was Jaebum and Wendy were right in front of you. Everything they did you could see them do and hear them laugh and it just made you extremely jealous.
Why does it have to be so hard to act like Jaebum and you are nothing... Why couldn't Jackson just be accepting? If Jackson was the type of brother to be understanding, you wouldn't have to lie to your brother and feel guilty for using Yugyeom... You looked over at Wendy at the way she got super close to Jaebum and whispered in his ears having her lips touch his ear. Oh my god how were you going to survive trying to hold your anger in?
You tried your hardest to pretend they didn't even exist however you took one glance at Jaebum and noticed him laughing and then whispering something to Wendy. What are they whispering about? What could Jaebum possibly tell her? Oh my god... Why are you so jealous?
"Y/N, are you okay?" Yugyeom asks interrupting your thoughts and you looked over at him and smiled.
"Yeah, sorry." You were not okay, right now you were watching your boyfriend be with someone else...
"It's okay, but are you excited for the water slides?" Okay, Yugyeom is here trying to talk. You need to pay attention to him and forget Jaebum and Wendy even exist.
"Of course, I sometimes feel like I'm a low key fish." You said glancing over at Yugyeom and he smiled.
"Maybe you are," You glanced at Yugyeom and you both couldn't help but laugh.
"The world makes sense once again." You nodded and the both of you laughed.
You both continued to laugh and you felt your phone vibrate. You pulled out your phone from your pocket and received a text from the one and only Jaebum. Why is he texting you?
"Must you flirt right behind of me? You're mine. Don't forget that" Is this boy serious right now?
You were about to text something right back but instead, you decided to keep the comment to yourself and let it go. You rolled your eyes, left him on seen and put your attention back to Yugyeom. If Jaebum can put all his attention to Wendy, you can do the same right back to Yugyeom.
"You know what we should play!" You said and Yugyeom had his attention focused on you.
"And what game do you have in mind?"
"There is an app I actually downloaded. You put the phone on your forehead and it tells you what to act and without saying what you're doing and you make the person holding the phone guess the word or the action." You explained to Yugyeom and he instantly smiled.
"Let's play!"
Might as well do something during this long ass car ride.
~
The car ride wasn't getting so bad at this point. You were minding your own business in the back of the car with Yugyeom playing charades. But you felt your phone constantly vibrating receiving a text from Jaebum of course. What did he possibly want? You were having fun and clearly so was he. You ignored his texts causing him probably to get jealous but who cares right? He clearly has all his attention on Wendy.
"We are here!" Jackson says as you felt the car stop and at last you stopped playing the game and stared out the window. From the window, you could see water slides and so many water rides from a distant.
"Ready for a day of fun?" Yugyeom asks you and you smiled.
"Of course." Right now all you wanted to do was have fun. After seeing Jaebum and Wendy be extra close in the car ride... You wanted nothing to do with the two of them at least through this trip.
At last, you all got out of the car and you were standing next to Yugyeom talking about what water slides you were going on first. You had to find some way to distract yourself from this damn madness. But the moment you took one glance at Jaebum... You completely regretted that decision.
Wendy was really close to Jaebum. They were inches apart from one another and you noticed Jaebum holding on to Wendy's hand....
What the fuck is this?
Two can play this game...
