all_rise_red Donghae’s POV
It had been a while since I’ve seen Eunhyuk, two months had now passed and he had stopped dropping Eunmi off, nor did he pick her up anymore. I could see she didn’t like this. She may be a young girl but she knew what was happening around her.
When school was over, Eunmi usually stayed for a bit longer to wait for her dad, so I would always keep her company, even though we barely talked. I didn’t know what to say and I was afraid I’d say something stupid about Eunhyuk.
Today was one of those days; while she nervously played with her hands I looked through some of the things I would be doing with tomorrow’s classes.
“Donghae-ssi?” Eunmi said nervously.
“Yes, Eunmi?”
“Well, erm... Eunhyukkie really does miss you, I think. Whenever the subject of you pops up he always looks sad, please speak with him again.”
I looked at her and noticed her puppy dog eyes staring up at me.
“But, I don’t know Eunmi,” I really didn’t know what to say to her.
“Please, pretty please,” her pleading puppy eyes got bigger.
Before I could answer, the door opened. Both me and Eunmi looked towards the door; I secretly wished it was Eunhyuk. To my surprise a shade of red hair peeped through the doorway and my heart started to pound in my chest.
“Eunmi, seeing as mom and dad had to leave for their business trip earlier than they expected I’m here to pick you up. Uhm hi Donghae-ssi,” Eunhyuk looked away before our eyes could meet.
“Goodbye Donghae-ssi, I’ll see you tomorrow” Eunmi said in a bubbly manner while picking up her bag and heading over towards her brother.
When they were both gone, a sigh left my lips. I just couldn’t believe what Eunmi had just said, he didn’t even dare to look me in the eyes, or was there another reason behind that? Or maybe I’m just paranoid.
Eunhyuk’s POV
I stood in front of the door to Eunmi’s classroom, gathering all my courage before I walked in, I didn’t know why I was so nervous. This wasn’t such a big deal, right? My heart definitely thought it was; it felt like it was going to burst out of my chest. I didn’t like that feeling at all. A deep sigh left my lips while I prepared myself to open the door, but just as I was about to do that, I overheard them talking about me.
Eunmi seemed to be telling Donghae of how I missed him. I detested this, but she wasn’t exactly wrong, was she? I didn’t even know the answer myself. After a little while I finally opened the door, not looking directly at Donghae, because I had a feeling that I would feel much worse if I did.
After Eunmi and I had left the building and we were both seated in the car, I sighed heavily. I looked outside the car window in hope of seeing that similar face coming out of the building, but it didn’t. It felt as if my heart was clenching it’s fist. Why was I even hoping to see him? I’ve made it clear that I didn’t want to see him anymore, right? So why was I secretly hoping he would follow us?
Maybe Eunmi was right, maybe I did miss his presence. But that didn’t stop me from wondering why. The whole ride home I kept thinking about it, I couldn’t get it off my mind and I lost track of everything around me.
“Oppa, we are home, come on let’s get out of the car,” I woke up from my day-dream because Eunmi was poking me.
While Eunmi was watching TV before bed I was in the kitchen staring at my phone, my hands were shaking whilst holding it. I read the message to myself once again.
Donghae, let’s meet tonight at my place. Can you be here in an hour? Eunmi will be sleeping by then so we can talk without being disturbed. I really need to tell you something…
Eunhyuk
My finger moved slowly towards the send button, but before I could press it I changed my mind again. Why on earth did I even plan on talking to him about? I wasn’t even clear on what I was feeling so how could I find anything to talk about. You’re such an idiot, I told myself. You need to clear things up with him. I let one last sigh leave my lips before I finally pushed the send button.
After that I placed my phone in my pocket again and walked over to the living room where Eunmi was already half asleep on the couch.
“Let’s get you to bed dear,” I said.
Eunmi barely nodded and I picked her up to bring her to her bed. Luckily for me she had already changed into her pyjamas soon after dinner so I only had to put her in bed and tuck her in.
“Goodnight Eunmi,” I said, before kissing her forehead.
When I left the room, I could have sworn I heard Eunmi mumbling something about Donghae. I listened carefully to see if I could catch it again, but all I could hear were peaceful snores.
I sat nervously on the couch; I couldn’t help but be nervous. How will Donghae react? What will he do as soon as we are alone in this room? All these thoughts wandered around in my head and I wasn’t able to calm down. I slapped my face with two hands.
Lee Hyukjae, get back to your senses, nothing weird will happen. You guys are only going to talk, I told myself.
The doorbell rang.
I stood up, sighed and then I walked over to the door. My hands shook heavily as I reached for the doorknob, and when I turned it and opened the door, my mouth nearly dropped.
There stood a man in light skinny jeans, a low cut white shirt and a black leather jacket to top it off. Also to my surprise, he was holding a bouquet of flowers, and a bottle of red wine.
“I think I need to apologize, so this is for you,” Lee Donghae handed me the flowers, and when he noticed me looking at the wine he added, “I thought we might be able to have a drink.”
He smiled his sweet smile and my knees felt weak, I attempted to smile back and then let him in. Lee Hyukjae you can do this, I said to myself before closing the door and walking in with Donghae.
