Looks Can Be Deceptive

a/n: I know its been forever, but I’m writing this one because it was requested. This one’s for you bub! Hope you enjoy it :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was the first day of college and you were nervous. After being in the same school for so long, you wondered if you could even make new friends anymore. You wiped the sweat off your hands and grabbed your satchel tightly. Your parents had helped you settle in to your dorm room the previous night, and the only person you had spoken to far was the warden. Your roommate was yet to arrive.

You walked toward your first class hoping things would be alright. It took some time to find the right lecture hall, but with some help, you located it easily. Unfortunately, you were late to the class. The professor excused you but it didn’t mean that your new classmates didn’t take the opportunity to snicker at you. You took a seat at the back of the hall and wished to disappear. A tall boy made way for you to sit down, You took a peep into his notebook and he already seemed to have taken down a lot of notes. This experience was going to be difficult if you didn’t keep up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The library soon became your safe place. All the time you weren’t at class, you spent there, in hopes of catching up with the curriculum. It seemed like a big jump from the kind of studies you were used to, and the assignments were endless.

You tried to reach the top shelf for one of the books you needed to complete your latest Computers assignment. Unfortunately, you couldn’t reach, even though you stood on your toes.

“Do you need help with that? I can get that for you.”, you heard a deep voice behind you. You lost your balance in fright, and had to grab the bookshelf to steady yourself. Shutting your eyes in embarrassment, you turned around to find the source of this voice. It was the tall boy from your class! He had black spectacles on today, something he didn’t have earlier. You often sat beside him in class, since the other students didn’t really leave place for you. In spite of your sort of poor eyesight, you always felt at home with all the tall folks at the back of the class However, the two of you never talked, except for the occasional ‘Excuse me’ when you needed to get to your place, or a ‘Thank you’ when you borrowed anything from each other.

You stepped aside and told him the name of the book you needed. He fetched it for you and stared at it for two seconds.

“Oh no. OH NO. We have an assignment due right? Oh no I haven’t even started on it.” he said, his eyes widening in realisation.

“Yeah we do, but don’t worry, it’s not due until next week!”, you said, in attempt to calm and quiet him. A couple of students had looked up from their books when he started rambling.

“Yes but I won’t be free this weekend to finish it.” he said.

You didn’t want to pry, you barely knew the guy, but you figured, this could be a chance to get to know him. You hadn’t made many friends. They were more like ‘people who are in my classes’. Spending time outside of class was not something you did, since you were in the library all the time.

“I could help you... Uh... I mean if you want, we can work on it together so that’ll cut down the time we need to finish it.” you said, unsure of what his response would be.

He stared at you for a few seconds, as if trying to process a couple of things all at once. You fiddled with the edge of the book as you waited, each second filling you with growing regret for suggesting it in the first place.

“That would be really great. That would be wonderful really. Thank you so much! I’m Chanyeol, by the way.” he said, smiling and extending his hand for a shake. You took it and introduced yourself as well.

Every evening for the rest of the week, you and Chanyeol spent your evenings in a corner of the library, away from the other students, as you realised that he was sort of excitable and had very little control over the volume of his voice. You managed to finish the assignment before the weekend, and for once, had nothing to do on Saturday and Sunday. Normally, other kids would spend it with their friends. So naturally, when Chanyeol asked you what your plans for the weekend were, you fumbled over your words and tried to come up with something.

“Hey, its okay. I know you don’t have many friends here, I’ve noticed. And that’s okay. I thought you were a really quiet kid, and was surprised that you offered to work together on the assignment. I’m really glad that you did, because now I know just how talkative you can be!” he said, cheekily.

You punched his arm in retaliation and he pretended to be hurt. That made you burst into laughter, because he was a lot taller than you, and his arms felt solid under your punch.

“Damn, Chanyeol, you work a lot huh?” you said, feeling his arm.

“A guy needs his gains. We need to be able to protect ourselves from friends who punch you. Self defense.” he said

You smiled at him, a funny feeling washing over you. He called you his friend, and it made your heart flutter.

“Okay so now I know you have no plan for the weekend, so do you want to come see my band ?”

“Wait, you’re in a band?” you asked, in disbelief.

“Why, do I not look like someone who’s in a band?”

“No it’s just that..... Never mind, we’ve hardly known each other, so it makes sense I’d love to come watch you guys practice.”

He immediately perked up on hearing your reply. After giving you the details, he walked you to your dorm room and waved goodbye.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Shit, Chan, you’re brilliant! I didn’t know you played guitar so well! And the rest of the band is amazing too !” you said in delight. It was one of the best Saturday mornings you’ve had since you joined this university. Chanyeol introduced you to his band mates and friends - Baekhyun, Jongdae and MInseok. They were super friendly and welcomed you warmly.

“Oh he does much more than play guitar, dear. He also plays the piano, the drums and he sings pretty well. Oh and how can I forget, he can rap too!” Baekhyun said cheekily.

“Okay mom, are you done showing off about me?” Chanyeol retorted, rolling his eyes. You giggled at their antics, but were also impressed.

“I did not take you for such talented guy! Insane. If you will allow me, I would like to come see you play all those instruments!” you said.

“What about you, do you play any instrument?” Jongdae asked, joining the conversation.

“Well... “ you trailed off. You were sort of shy to say, but you were pretty darn good at singing. However, you could hardly compare to Jongdae and Baekhyun. They were brilliant in their own right.

“I’m guessing she sings.” Minseok said, not looking up.

“How did you guess?” you asked, stunned.

“I saw you trying to sing along. That’s the sort of I see Baek do more often that I like.”

Chanyeol almost turned into a puppy on hearing this. Baekhyun, however, turned into a pouting puppy. It was quite a sight.

“YOU NEED TO SING FOR US!!” Chanyeol yelled, in his unintentionally loud voice.

“I don’t think you want that I mean like hahaha you guys sing so well and..” you tried explaining, but it was futile. Chanyeol was already setting up a mic and grabbed his acoustic.

“I know you like that song, Shut Up And Dance, I think I can play it. Come, sing.” Chanyeol called you.

You knew there was no winning this battle. You did as you were asked and sang for them, They clapped for you at the end, and you couldn’t help but blush.

“I can’t believe you were hiding those pipes from me!” Chanyeol said, as he put down his guitar. “I think we can all agree that with a bit of help and practice, she can actually utilize her voice to the maximum extent.”

Baekhyun and Jongdae agreed enthusiastically. Minseok however, looked a bit reluctant, but shrugged in agreement.

“Thanks guys, but I really do not want to detract from the main agenda, which is your practice. So I guess, help me out only when you have spare time.” you tried to reason.

“Ah no, we can spare sometime on the weekends. It’ll be like a mini project!” Baekhyun said.

So, a deal was made. You and Chanyeol would work together to complete all the assignments during the week, and rehearse on the weekends.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As the days passed, you found yourself spending more time with Chanyeol You’d find yourself laughing at his antics quite often, and the other students wondered what changed you. At lunch, the other boys would sit with the two of you and cause quite a fuss, most of it started by Baekhyun. They also introduced to their other friends, Junmyeon, Yixing, Sehun, Jongin and Kyungsoo. They were part of the dance and theatre courses at the university, and soon, you became part of their friends circle. It surprised you, how quickly they took to you, and all your initial worry of being friendless through your time at university faded away.

You also found yourself getting specially close to Chanyeol. Baekyun seemed to catch on and would tease you endlessly, but in secret.

“I know you like him, why don’t you just tell him?” he asked you seriously, one day.

“Well, I don’t want to ruin our friendship. Right now, my friends circle consists of mainly you guys. If he doesn’t feel the same way, then I’m back to square one. I’m so terrified.” you admitted.

“Hey, I don’t think you have to worry about that. We’re friends with you because you’re cool and we enjoy your company. That’s what I’ve discussed with the other boys. And also, I think Chan is mature enough to not screw up a great friendship, no, a symbiosis like yours.” Baekhyun said.

“Symbiosis?” you asked, surprised.

“Yeah! You guys work really well together, it’s nuts. I think you should just tell him how you feel.” Baekyun said, knowing all too well that his tall friend had indeed fallen for you already. He didn’t bring a lot of girls to band practice, and he knew that you were special to him at the very least.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

The minute you stepped in to the party, you realised you should have trusted your gut and stayed at home. It had been two months since you had that conversation with Baekhyun, and you finally worked up the courage to ask Chanyeol out. Although he was being a little distant off late, you though you might as well clear the air and confess.

But the minute you entered, you spotted Chanyeol by the bar, chatting up a pretty girl. You felt sick in the stomach, but before you could turn away, Jongdae came up to you and pulled you in.

“Hey ! Someone cleans up really well !” he said, gesturing to your outfit. You could barely register what he was saying, as hot tears filled your eyes. His kitten like smile quickly disappeared as he hurriedly led you to a side room. Baekhyun stood there, his hands on his hips, looking tense. The minute he saw your face, the frown grew.

“Did you see him already?” he asked, in a serious tone.

“Yep. I couldn’t steal her away soon enough.” Jongdae replied, his voice quiet.

You were surprised. They were the most energetic people you knew, and yet here they were, their mood sullen. Letting out a breath you didn’t know you were holding in, you quickly wiped your tears away.

“I should just go home, guys.” you said.

“No way! You’re not going to miss Sehun’s party just because Chan decided to be an ass.” Baekhyun said, his frustration showing.

“In his defense, he didn’t know I was going to ask him out today.” you said.

“Wait, what? Is that why you dressed up so fancy?” Jongdae asked in surprise.

“Yep.” you laughed incredulously.

“Oh God no. Good God. Holy crap.” Baekyun huffed.

The door suddenly opened, surprising you.

“Hey guys! What’s up? We were looking for y’all all over, the party is really getting started now, hurry up!” Jongin gushed, clearly already inebriated. He didn’t seem to catch on to the tension in the air. The four of you stood in silence for a few moments. You didn’t want to ruin Sehun’s birthday for him, so you made up your mind. Survive the night and then get away.

Clearing your throat, you tried your best to smile. Taking a deep breath, you said, “Lead the way!” and followed Jongin out the door.

You spent the rest of the evening with the boys, dancing and laughing, and drinking, and actively trying to avoid Chanyeol. You tried to have fun, after all, no one should stop you from enjoying your life. The news however, seemed to have spread to the other boys. They were taking turns trying to cheer you up - everything from a shot contest against Jongin, a dance contest against the birthday boy, and a singing contest against Jongdae. It was no surprise that they did badly on purpose, making you laugh at their antics. Chanyeol was however, clueless. You noticed,however, the girl from earlier wasn’t anywhere around. It didn’t bother you though, because you finally understood Baekhyun’s words. The boys did care for you, and that meant that you had real friends.

By the time everyone left, you were too drunk to even stand. Chanyeol came up to you, and offered to take you home. You began to protest, your bottled emotions rising to the surface.

“I haven’t got a chance to talk to you at all today, what is up with you?” he asked.

“Why don’t you ask that pretty girl who was all over you earlier?” you spat back.

“Who? Oh her. Okay look, it’s complicated. I doubt I can explain it to you right now.” he said, sighing.

“Am I dumb? Chan, we don’t hide things from each other, so how come I’ve never heard of this girl before” you said, your sadness taking over.

“Because she doesn’t matter and I’m stupid. C’mon let me take you back. I’ll explain everything, I promise. No secrets.”

You conceded defeat. As he helped you up to leave, Baekhyun came upto him and said “You better take her home safe and take care of her or I’ll beat you up so bad. You made her cry, Chan, I hope you’re happy.”

Chanyeol looked between the two of you, not knowing what to say. Finally, he spoke up, “Yes. I’ll take her home safe. Thank you for being a good friend Baek.” he said, sincerely.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When you got home and got changed, with Chanyeol’s help, you sat him down on your couch. Sipping water slowly from a cup helped you sober up slightly. “Care to explain ?” you said.

“Yes. I’m sorry I made you cry, I’m sorry I ruined your mood and hurt your feelings, that was not my intention. I just wanted to make you feel jealous and that backfired. I should’ve been more sensitive to your feelings- ” he said, before you cut him off.

“Jealous?” you asked in a quiet voice.

“Yeah. If it wasn’t obvious...” he trailed off, trying to steel himself before he continued, “I really like you. Like, a lot a lot. And I didn’t know how to go about tell you I should’ve just straight up told you. I was so immature, now that I look back at the evening. I’m sorry, love. If you chose not to forgive me, I understand. If you don’t feel the same, I understand that as well.” he finished, his eyes trained on you.

You were stunned to say the least. You had planned so much to say to him when you were going to confess, but now your mind was blank.

“You idiot.” you managed to croak out, before reaching forward and placing your lips on his. You’d imagined your first kiss with him in a lot of different ways, but never like this. He was surprised initially, but gave in and pulled you close. Your hand slowly sneaked around his neck and into his hair. He grabbed your legs and helped you straddle him, as your lips moved over his. Pulling away, your chest heaved as you tried to decipher his expression.

“Wha- What does that mean?” he asked softly, searching your face for answers.

“I like you like a lot a lot, you damn fool. I was going to confess to you tonight, but then you had to go and bring that girl. “ you said, red rising in your cheeks.

His mouth went from an ‘O’ shape to a full blown smile when your words sunk in. He pulled you close to him and buried his face in your neck, laughter rising from his throat.

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” he asked.

“Why didn’t YOU tell me earlier, instead of resorting to silly measures to make me jealous?” you retorted.

He pulled away and held your face in his hands. “I’m sorry, love. I truly am. But I’m so grateful that you like me back. So let me ask, will you go out with me?”

“Yes, a thousand times yes!” you said and he pulled you in for another kiss. He didn’t hesitate this time, tasting you with a curiosity you had never imagined. His warm breath fanned over your face, as you continued to kiss, sending shivers down your spine. He moaned as his mouth moved over yours, which drove you wild. Pulling apart, he began trailing kisses down your chin and down to your neck, where he continued to taste your skin. The way he nibbled at your neck caused you to moan and tug at his hair. Satisfied with this mini adventure, he pulled away.

“Are we, I mean, did I move too fast? I’m so sorry if that was not what you wanted, I will just stop-” he said, realising what he had just done.

“Babe, Chan, relax. I wanted this. I’ve been wanting this, and more for a while now. I’ll tell you if we’re going too fast, okay?” you said, trailing your fingers through his hair.

“How long have you liked me? If you’ve been wanting ‘more’ ” he asked, cheekily.

“Remember that time when you helped me stack the paper cups for Baekhyun’s birthday, and it kept falling over, so you carried me so I could reach the top? From then. That entire party planning experience basically had me whipped for you. Weird, I know.” you said shyly.

“Did Baekyun hire cupid or something because that’s around when I fell for you too! This is crazy. He even told me to confess to you after that party.”

“He told me to confess too! Baekhyun didn’t hire cupid, he is cupid.”

“Well, we have one friend to thank tomorrow morning, provided we can get out of bed.”

“Oooh what did you have in mind?” you asked, wiggling your eyebrows.

“I thought we could watch Ghibli movies” he said, faking innocence.

“Chanyeolllll !”

Surf and Sand

a/n: Kang Seulgi is a queen and here is just something I’ve been wanting to write for a while. It’s a bit indulgent, so bear with me.

Also shout-out to @gummydoesstuff for this marvelous mood board, it’s simply stunning ! <3

We could never stay apart, for even the tide returns the shore, washing it anew and leaving behind presents of shells and animals - a declaration of love for the unchanging sand. We build castles in the air, but at the end of the day, you are the home I return to.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If someone told you three years ago that you were going to date Kang Seulgi, you would've laughed in their face.

She was your good friend, although you wanted it to be something more, you knew, she was way out of your league. The day she secretly revealed that she was going to join SM Entertainment as a trainee, your heart sank. You were headed to college soon, and you hoped that she would be at least one friend you would take into the new phase of your life.

On the last day of high school, the two of your parted ways, fulling knowing that sustaining the friendship would be hard to do, between you moving to another city to study, and her busy training schedule.

Seulgi, however, didn't let you feel like much had changed. Every time something exciting happened to her, she would call you and in a rush of words, describe in great detail the events that had occurred. She met the idols she looked up to and respected, and shared her daily struggles. You admired her strength to endure it all, and in a way, she was a sort of inspiration for you to deal with your own difficulties of being away from your family and dealing with tests and assignments.

Irene, Wendy, Joy and Yeri soon became close to you as well, and would send you snaps of Seulgi being a cute dork. It made you miss her terribly, but you were grateful that she had such great friends to support her on her journey.

Post debut, and during comebacks, the calls and snaps would cease, as she was thrown into busy schedules. You watched her group rise the ranks with pride, although it hurt to be away from her.

To put it simply - you were confused about your feelings.

Is this what a friendship is like?

Or were you too scared to admit to yourself that you did indeed love Kang Seulgi and you didn't know what to do with the feelings?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In your third year of college, you got a chance to intern at a company in Seoul over the holidays.

You were over the moon in excitement! It was a chance to be reunited with Seulgi after three long years, and to finally meet her friends in person.

A part of you was reluctant, hesitant even. Would your feelings be revealed? Would you tell her the truth you've now come to accept? Or would you continue to watch her grow and go on without you?

There were a lot of things that you worried about - what if she didn't like you the same way? What would her company do if they found out? What were the rules on dating idols? How would the two of you work around your schedules? To top it all, you were still unsure about what you were going to do after college study further or work?

Your head began to ache with all the questions. You unlocked your phone to see a snap from Seulgi, of her holding a bear toy you had gifted her on her 18th birthday. The caption read - "I can't wait for you to come here!" Your smile grew so wide when you realised that she kept the stuffed bear even after all this time.

It was time you told her the truth. As her best friend, you owed her that much.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When you arrived in Seoul, you obviously didn't expect Seulgi to be there to pick you up. Thats not what idols do, you had to remind yourself.

You checked your phone two missed calls - one from Seulgi and one from your parents.

A text notification revealed one from Seulgi - "Hey! I'm really sorry about not meeting you at the airport, something urgent came up. We might have our comeback sooner than expected so I won't be free the whole day today :( I promise I'll make it up to you when we meet. Take care <3"

Well you couldn't blame her for the decisions her company took. You quickly found your parents in the crowd and all other thoughts vanished as your were squished into a group hug.

Your mother took it upon herself to cook your favourite dishes as she thought you were underweight. It was quite the contrary, but you weren't going to say no to home food, after being away for so long.

Your dad on the other hand decided to be a total dad and slyly asked you if after all this time, you found someone you liked. You choked on the hot soup you were having, and it took a whole five minutes to say "Well there is someone..."

"I knew it!" shouted your father, as her turned his head in glee, wiggling his eyebrows at your mother.

"Honey, let her finish her sentence, then we'll settle the bet." you mother said.

"You guys bet on me? What the hell?" you asked, your voice coated with pretend anger.

"Yeah, you were away from us for three whole years, we assumed you'd finally get some one. So who is this lucky person?" you mother replied.

"Uh, its nobody. I just like someone and I don't know if they like me back." you said, your eyes trained on your bowl.

"Well then baby girl I think its time you told them and found out?" you father gently said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That evening, right around dinner time, your doorbell rang. Your family was puzzled as you weren't expecting any guests.

when you opened the door, Seulgi pulled you into her arms, while screaming "SURPRISE!" in your ear.

The sudden ambush surprised you and the two of you toppled over to the floor, along with the bags Seulgi was carrying. Your parents came out to inspect the noise only to see a giggling mess of two girls surrounded by bags.

"What's all this? How come you're here I thought you might have practice until late night? Are you hungry?" you asked, as you voiced your thoughts as they occurred.

Seulgi helped you to your feet before collecting the stuff that had fallen. "I can't believe you're here after all this time! I left practice early because I didn't want to let your first day back here go without meeting you!"

"What's all this?" you asked curiously.

"Great things come to those who wait." She said cheekily. "I'm super hungry, have you had dinner yet?"

"We were just about to, c'mon." you said, leading her to the dinning room.

The four of you sat down to eat and Seulgi and you chatted your heads off. She kept complimenting the food, and you realised that home cooked food must be pretty rare for her too.

After eating to your hearts content, you went to your room to finally uncover the mystery of the bags.

"Okay, here we go." she said, handing you one bag after another. You found books, chocolate, jewelry and even a Red Velvet light stick.

"Seul, whats all this for?"

"These are just things I've been wanting to give you for a while now. Whenever I saw something you might like, I picked up and kept it with me to give it to you when we meet. I hope you like them?” she asked, her voice soft.

“Of course I do, they’re all such thoughtful gifts, Seul, thank you so much.” you said as you pulled her in for a hug. Your eyes welled with tears, and you sniffled into her shoulder.

“Hey cry baby! I just wanted to get these for you okay now just use them nicely.” She said, wiping your tears.

“I didn’t get you anything great, except this book I read. It’s really nice. I also made you a playlist for the holidays, and uhhh.....” you trailed off.

“Hmm?”

“Yeah that’s... that’s all. Here.” you said, your heart thumping in your chest as you handed her a book and a CD. You couldn’t bring yourself to give her the last gift yet.

“Thank you much! I was actually looking for a good book and I seriously missed your playlists. You mind reader. Never fails to surprise me.”

She giggled and put the CD into the player and pulled you to dance with her. You spent the rest of the evening talking, singing, dancing and eating the chocolates she brought.

Closer to 12 am, however, you had to say your goodbyes. You were lucky that her manager had let her out so long.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

You spent the rest of your time buried in your internship and your weekends with Seulgi. It was never a one on one though, the other girls from Red Velvet joined in, or some of your friends from high school. You went to their practices and performances on occasion. She was a force to reckon with when on stage and a total sweetheart off stage.

You thought that being with her and having to adjust your schedules might knock some sense into you, but that failed as well.

You just fell for her, harder.

How on earth could you contain your feelings any longer? You had do something about it before the holidays ended.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Seul, I really want to get away for this weekend. It’ll be my last one here and the weather is perfect, I want to go to the beach.” you said to her, on an evening shopping spree.

“The beach? That actually sounds like a good idea. Now that all the comeback promotions are over, I might get some free time. We could go on a little road trip!” she said.

The two of you planned out the logistics before heading home. You couldn’t wait for the weekend.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ride to the beach was fun, you sang on the top of your lungs and ate a lot of junk food. You missed how organic it was - a weird way to put it - but hanging out with Seulgi like this reminded you of the days you would sneak out to the lake near the end of town to watch the sunset after school.

Back then you were worried about your hopes and dreams and future, and she was worried about hers. Not once did you think that maybe your futures had a chance of reuniting.

You got her ice cream, played volleyball with a few other people and took lots of photos on the polaroid camera you got for her. The sky was clear and you could not have picked a better day. The two of you built sand castles, and watched the tide take it away in its clutches, leaving behind beautiful shells in exchange. A fair transaction, you thought.

Settling on a towel on the shore, Seulgi handed you your ukulele. It had been ages since you had played, but once you saw the excitement on her face, you knew you couldn’t say no.

So slowly and surely, you began signing the one song you still remembered the chords to - Don’t U Wait No More. You were feeling a bit bold, but when Seulgi joined in, you couldn’t help the thumping in your chest.

“Wow I didn’t think you would’ve known that song!” Seulgi said, once you finished.

“Well how could I call myself your best friend if I didn’t know all of your discography?” you replied.

Seulgi’s smile faltered a bit but she covered it up with a cute giggle.

Pulling you on your feet she called out, “Last one to the food shack is a loser!”, as she took off toward the other end of the beach.

The setting sun graced the horizon, as you chased behind her, struggling to keep up. “Seulgi, wait!! I can’t run that fast!”

“C’mon slow poke!”

She lessened her pace as she turned to face the sea. Her mouth was open in surprise and as you caught up, she pointed out, “Hey, isn’t that so beautiful?”

You couldn’t tear your eyes off her, however, and merely replied a simple, “Yeah”.

The only sounds that were heard were your panting and the ocean waves meeting the shore. You wanted to stay in this moment forever, knowing fully that this was your last chance to do something.

“Seul..” you said, quietly.

“Hmm?”

“Seul I wanted to tell you something.”

She turned to look at you, her face washed over with a sense of calm.

The sight made all the words that collected in your throat go back to the pit of your stomach, as you held your breath.

“Go on.” she said.

“I uh.. I don’t know how to say this but, I really I’ve just been wanting to tell you this and I don’t know how to..”

She closed the distance between the two of you and held your hand.

“It’s okay, you can tell me anything.”

“Kang Seulgi. I’ve known you for so long, and I don’t when it all started but I can’t keep it in anymore. You know that song by Day6 ? I Like You? This is exactly that.

I like you. More than I can say. I don’t know if you feel the same but I had to let you know.” you finished, your cheeks aflame like the setting sun.

You looked down at the sand, not daring to see her reaction.

She lifted your chin up gently with her fingers and looked at you with such emotion, before pulling you in for a kiss.

It was soft, like she was, and you tasted the vanilla of the ice cream she had earlier. You mind buzzed with a million thoughts and at the same time you couldn’t process any of it. You wanted to be in that moment.

Kang Seulgi was kissing you.

When she pulled away, she tucked a stray lock of hair behind your ear, before smiling fondly at you.

“Does that take away your worries? I can’t believe it took you so long to tell me. I was about to confess, myself, but I wanted to see just how far you would go with those bottled up emotions.” she teased.

You pulled into a hug as the two of you giggled. “Wait, you liked me too?” you asked.

“Right from the day you choked on your chocolate milk back in high school, and it came out through your nose.”

“Whaaat why- why would that make you like me?”

“You’re my best friend, you’re funny and cute and smart and you take care of me well, how could I not like you?”

You took a moment to process the information.

“Also, I’m pretty sure the girls were fed up about me pining after you, they came close to telling you so many times! Now they can finally shut up.” she said, as she interlinked your arms and led you toward the food stalls.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“.... and then she handed me a book of poems she had written in our years away. It was almost like the sonnets from Shakespeare’s plays, if I must say.” Seulgi finished.

“Oh my god that is so cute unnie! You guys are adorable I’m just so glad we don’t have to deal with Seulgi’s whining anymore.” Yeri commented after you told her the events that had transpired on the beach.

“Oh no, if you think that was bad, wait till you have to deal with her for the next year.” Irene replied sharply.
