~~~~~~~

You sighed putting the last book in your locker before walking to your next class and sitting down on your usual seat. The teacher soon entered the class too and started collecting the assignments that were due today. You took the paper out of your bag and handed it to him, your mind drifting back to the same person once again. You couldn't focus in class. Not when the only thing you could think of was him.

Soon, it was lunch break and you followed your friends to a random table. Instead of engaging in the conversation your friends had, you decided to scan the area of the cafeteria looking for him.

You spotted him walking in, along with his group of friends. He laughed at something he said, he probably had just teased them, because one of them pretended to pull his ear, while another one pinched his arm causing him to let out an 'ow', but to laugh afterwards. They sat down on a table far from yours, meaning you couldn’t look at him clearly without making it obvious that you did, so you looked back at your food.

Your friend sitting next to you, nudged you softly with a knowing look and you shyly smiled before looking away. Your crush was so obvious, you never really felt the need to hide it.

However, despite your crush on the boy, you had never really talked with him. You were close with his friend Winwin though. You were paired for a project in the past and you got an A. He was a great partner. You continued to be friends after that, greeting each other when you bump in the hallways.

After getting that A, you went out to celebrate and you paid for the both of you, even if he refused, so he offered to go out again and paid that time instead. But your friendship with Winwin didn’t stop you from developing a small crush on his friend.

When you and Winwin went out, he had talked about his friends and from what he said about Yangyang, he seemed like a very nice guy. Your friends always told you to try and become closer to Winwin, so that you could talk with Yangyang more, but you refused to do that.

You felt like you’d use Winwin if you hid your crush from him, but also didn’t want to tell him in fear that he'd tell Yangyang. Winwin seems trustworthy, but he is closer to Yangyang, so it would make sense if he told him about your crush. In any case you ignored your friends and decided to let your crush only be a crush from afar.

Lunch break would soon be over, so you and your friends collected your things, walking towards the exit of the cafeteria along with a few other groups of students. Coincidentally, the group right behind yours was Yangyang's friend group.

You felt a tap on your shoulder and turned around to meet Winwin’s eyes. You smiled at him letting out a small 'hi', suddenly feeling shy being around his whole group of friends and especially Yangyang.

"Hey, how have you been?" He politely asked. "Good. Well... a little stressed, because of homework, but other than that I've been doing okay. How about you?" You asked and he sighed. "I'm stressed too, especially with the exams coming up. I'm also preparing for a dance competition, which adds up to my stress." He said and you nodded in understanding. "You shouldn't worry about any of these. You're a great student and you dance so well. I'm sure you'll do great." You complimented and he shyly smiled. "Thank you." He said and avoided your gaze. "I have to run to my locker before class, so I'll see you around?" You asked and he nodded. "Yeah, see you around" he said and both of your groups parted ways.

Your friends all looked at you with raised eyebrows and you scolded them because 'Stop, Winwin might see you'.

"Uh, who was that?" Hendery asked Winwin. "(Y/n). We worked on a group project in the past." He replied.

"Is it just me or were you guys flirting?" Ten said with a teasing smile. "Ah no, we are just friends." He said and Ten laughed. "That's was they all say". But they all failed to notice how Yangyang reacted seeing Winwin talk to you.

He had stopped paying attention to what the others said as soon as he heard you and Winwin talk. Unlike Hendery, Yangyang remembered exactly who you were. He remembered the day Winwin told them he couldn’t meet them, because he was working on that project with you. When they texted later, the way Winwin talked about you made you seem like an amazing person, so he looked up your profile. He remembers thinking ‘Wow I wish my project partner was this pretty. No scratch that. I wish my project partner was her.’

However Yangyang hid his crush on you from everyone, preferring to just admire you from afar when you weren't looking. He was pretty sure you liked Winwin anyways. When he heard you compliment him on his grades and his dancing he felt his heart clenching.

He could always just ask Winwin to bring you and your friends to hang out with them so that he would get to talk with you but 1) his friends would tease him for his crush 2) you’d probably only talk with Winwin.

He sighed, walking into class and daydreamed about talking to you, going out with you, maybe even holding your hand

He tried to think of a way to get to talk to you. First he had to make sure you didn’t have a crush on Winwin. And once he was sure, then he could plan out his move of asking you out.

At the same time, your friends were convinced you had lied about your crush on Yangyang and had a crush on Winwin instead, but were too shy to tell them.

"You are a great student and you dance so well, oh my god Winwin you're so dreamy" one of them mocked you and you sighed. "I don’t have a crush on Winwin. I like Yangyang." You said and they scoffed.

"Well then don’t expect him to like you back, if you flirt with Winwin in front of him," they said and they were right. It did look like you were flirting with him. But you weren't. And Winwin knows it. And he will tell them. Right?

"You have to ask him out". "Woah are you crazy? I can’t just ask him out, out of the blue" you said. "Yes you can. Or just ask Winwin for help." Another one said and you sighed. "Noo, Winwin will tell Yangyang." You whined.

"This is good. Because if Yangyang likes you back then Winwin will urge you to ask him out too. If he doesn’t he will seem hesitant, which will be good because you won’t get rejected directly. So in any case it's a good thing to ask Winwin for help." They reasoned.

Well, they did have a point.

"Okay, I'll ask Winwin for help. I'll text him to meet today and I'll tell him. Because, if I text him, he will have proof, whilst if I tell him face to face, I can just deny it and he will have no proof." You said making your friends facepalm, but to you, your plan was perfect.

You texted Winwin, asking him if he was up for a coffee today and he agreed, since he didn’t have dance classes that day.

"Where are you going?" Kun asked when Winwin started collecting his things. "(Y/n) texted me and asked me to meet, so we will go out." He replied. "And then you say you guys aren’t flirting. I'm sure she will confess today." Ten said and Winwin sighed.

"No, she won’t." He said putting his phone in his pocket. "Let's bet!" Hendery said and Winwin shook his head. "Okay, 20 bucks. If she confesses you gotta pay up. If she doesn’t.... well she will so we don’t even have to consider this an option" Ten said. "Fine." Winwin said knowing that if you really wanted to confess you would have done it a long time ago. He wasn’t an idiot to turn down 20 bucks from Ten, plus the annoyed look on his face after losing.

 Winwin and you sat down on the table. You luckily managed to find one near the window. The conversation flowed naturally, like it always did, until you decided it was time to ask him what you were meant to ask him all along.

“So… I kinda wanted to ask you something today” You said and Winwin’s breath hitched. ‘Oh no. Does she really want to confess? Do I have to pay Ten now? What do I do?’ he thought.

“Sure, ask ahead” he said and you sighed before saying. “I kinda like… Yangyang…” which made Winwin widen his eyes. ‘So she didn’t want to confess? So I don’t have to pay Ten? SHE LIKES YANGYANG?’ He was relieved on one hand but on the other hand he panicked.

“Oh… Wow...” he trailed off making you look down at your coffee, playing around with the straw.

“Yeah, I mean, I don’t really know him that well, but he seems nice and from what you said he probably is very nice indeed, so I kinda like him and my friends are telling me to ask him out, but I’m pretty sure he barely knows I exist and then they suggested I ask for your help, so here I am.” You rambled but Winwin’s expression didn’t change one bit.

“I… I don’t really know, he hasn’t mentioned you before. But I could indirectly ask him about you?” He added quickly seeing your expression form to one of disappointment.

“No, it will make it too obvious. Just forget what I said, okay?” You said and he shook his head.

“They know we met up and they will definitely ask me about you later. So I could somehow ask about their opinions on you in general and will tell you what Yangyang said.” He said and you sighed.

“I don’t know, Winwin…” you trailed off. “I will do this and I’ll tell you. I know Yangyang well.” He said and then tried to change the subject, feeling bad for making you feel disappointed.  

 The next time Winwin met up with his friends, which was the next day at school, he decided to tease Ten about the bet. He walked up to his group of friends, with a 20 in his hand. Ten screeched loudly, making a few people turn to look at him, but he didn’t care.

“(Y/n) confessed something when we met up.” He said, his eyes flickering momentarily to Yangyang to catch his reaction. He was surprised to see him look down as soon as the words left Winwin’s mouth.

“I KNEW IT” Ten screeched again but Winwin raised his hand up to stop him. “She confessed that in fact she doesn’t see me that way, as she likes someone else. Too bad, now I’ll have to have double the amount of my money.” He said, pushing the 20 in front of Ten’s dropped jaw.

“No. We didn’t agree on that. We said you pay me if you lose and didn’t talk about what happens if you win, because I didn’t think you’d actually win.” He said, but Kun shook his head at him.

“Ten, you have to be fair. Now pay up.” He said making Winwin smile. He looked at Yangyang who seemed to be deep in thought.

“You seem to be disappointed. Did you also think (y/n) liked me?” Winwin said to Yangyang, when the two of them walked to their shared class. “No, don’t worry, I’m fine.” He said but it was obvious he lied.

“What do you think about (y/n)?” Winwin asked making Yangyang pause. “She seems nice, I guess.” He said and avoided Winwin’s gaze. “Do you perhaps… like her a little bit?” He carefully asked, making Yangyang snap his head to look at him. “Who told you that? That’s a lie.” He said a little too quickly.

“Yangyang, it’s okay if you like her. You can ask her out. I promise she doesn’t like me.” He said and Yangyang shook his head. “But you told Ten she said she likes someone.” He said, making Winwin smile because he practically admitted to liking you.

“Yeah, but what if that someone is you. She was reluctant to tell me, so what if it’s because she knows we are friends and is afraid I’ll tell you?” he said, laughing internally at the irony of his words.

“I don’t want to get my hopes up, Winwin. She barely knows me, how could she like me?” he said and Winwin shook his head. “The same way you like her. You barely know her too.” He reasoned and Yangyang sighed. “I don’t know…” he trailed off and the conversation died, because their teacher walked in class.

Winwin texted you to meet him at lunch, but discretely, so that Yangyang didn’t see the two of you talking. You anxiously waited until lunch break and met him at your locker, which was far from the cafeteria.

“Ask him out.” He simply said making you let out a sound of surprise and cover his mouth. “Dude, could you be any louder?” You said looking around to see if someone was around. Thankfully no one was.

“Does that mean he likes me?” You whispered, but wasn’t able to reply as your hand was still covering his mouth. He raised his hand to remove your own from his face, making you apologise. “I think he’ll say yes.” He said making you frown. “You think? So you’re not sure?” you said making him whine.

“I can’t tell you because Yangyang is my friend and I have to keep secrets, but yes, he does like you. But he won’t ask you out because he isn’t confident either and this would go on forever because both of you are cowards, so just get the balls and ask him out.” He said childishly stomping his foot, making you giggle.

You engulfed him in your arms and squeezed him, giving him a kiss on the cheek. “Thank you, thank you, thank you” you said running to tell your friends, before stopping in your tracks.

“Try to get him to stay behind after school. I’ll come up to the two of you and you will then leave and I’ll ask him out then, okay?” You said to Winwin, but didn’t wait for an answer, seeing him stand there in shock holding the cheek you kissed.

Classes seemed to go by way faster now, as you were so excited about asking Yangyang out.

You spotted the two of them on your way out and walked up to them to greet them. “Hi guys.” You said making Yangyang jump. “Oh sorry didn’t mean to scare you” you said placing a hand on his shoulder, making him melt. “It’s fine” he said avoiding your gaze.

“Hey, can I talk to you for a second? Alone?” You asked Yangyang but he didn’t reply. He then raised his head in confusion. “Were you talking to me?” he asked making you and Winwin chuckle. “Yes” you confirmed and he gulped. “Uh, sure” he said glaring at Winwin who waved at him and left with a knowing smile.

“So, Yangyang…. I’ve been meaning to tell you something.” You said and he sighed afraid that Winwin told you about his crush and that you’d turn him down. “I kinda like you and I was wondering if you would wanna go out sometime?” you said hopefully making him choke on nothing.

“Wait, seriously?” he said in disbelief. “Yeah, I’ve liked you for a while now.” You said your confidence level dropping the more it took him to answer.

“I’ve liked you for quite some time too. And I’d love to go out with you. Ugh I can’t believe you asked me out first. I wanted to ask you out too, but I was too afraid you’d reject me.” He confessed and you chuckled.

“It’s okay. I was afraid too. But turns out I had no reason to worry” you said and he smiled. “Yeah. You had absolutely no reason to worry.” He said, wrapping an arm around your shoulders walking towards the exit.

Do you remember that day?

Han Jisung x reader

Summary: To my older self, holding hands with a best friend doesn't necessarily mean something. But for my 14 year old self it meant a lot more.

Warnings: None

Genre: fluff & angst

Word count: 605 words

~~~~~~~~

I can remember it like it was yesterday. The way I felt that day. It might have not meant much to you, but it did to me. Though, I like to think it meant something to you too.

I think our problem was always our bad timing. When these thoughts crossed your mind, they didn't cross mine and the other way around.

Changbin had told me, that six months before that day, you had admitted something to him. You had been feeling a way about me that a best friend isn’t supposed to feel. It was about a week before I admitted to him that I’ve been feeling those kinds of feelings for you too. I don't know why he didn't tell me right away, but it's understandable. He was supposed to keep our secrets like a good friend.

So, yeah. I think our problem was our bad timing. There is one day though, that felt like the only day we were in tune. The only day we both felt something about each other at the same time.

But we were so cowards. We acted as if nothing happened. We never talked about it again. I'm guessing you've probably forgotten about it. I haven't. Many years later and I still remember it like it was yesterday.

We were just two teenagers. Two teenagers watching a movie together.

You had come with my family and I on our vacation because I had begged you to do so. I really didn’t want to leave, knowing I’d be bored to death and you agreed to come with us easily, to keep me company. You woke up early, even though you never do that, just to prepare your things and come with me. I was so thankful for that.

At night, we sat on the couch and watched TV. After the first movie was over, we watched another one. It must have been about 2am. Everyone else was sleeping.

Somehow, our hands found their way towards each other. My left hand comfortably resting in your right hand. I secretly glanced at our hands and pretended I was putting some stray hair away. But I was also too immersed in the movie to see if you glanced at our hands too.

When the second movie was over, approximately 2 hours later, we let go of each other’s hands and turned off the TV. I don't know who let go first. But we did it without a word. Acting as if we weren't two best friends holding hands.

We collected our things, half empty glasses of water and our empty dinner plates, put them in the sink and headed to the room, where we exchanged a soft ‘good night’ and laid on our beds.

To my older self, holding hands with a best friend doesn't necessarily mean something. But for my 14 year old self it meant a lot more.

I still wonder how you felt. If you felt the same way. I wonder if you really remember it, or chose to forget it and replace the memory with new memories with other people.

We've now grown apart. We never contact each other anymore. But I still wonder. However I know I'll never get my answers.

I honestly don't think you remember any of this and if I ever told you, you'd probably just raise your eyebrow at me in confusion. I think I prefer not knowing the answer, than hating the answer.

But if you ever see this (even though I hope you never do) then tell me; Do you remember that day, Jisung? Did you feel the same way?
