CHAPTER 27

[Dara’s POV]






‘I think he likes you’






‘Don’t you feel something for him…?’






Ghaaa…! Thinking about these things is more exhausting than solving a bunch of math problems…! Why..?!! oh God why…?! Do I really have to bother myself with these things…?!






And why do I have to face that jerk again…?







Speaking of the devil… the jerk entered the room as soon as the bell stopped from ringing.






And just then, our eyes suddenly met…. Slowly my cheeks began to warm as I remembered the things CL and Minji told me earlier… those girls…! What did they get me into…?!!







He continuously looked at me and as if everything around me silenced… I couldn’t look away from his eyes…. Everything began to still… just him standing in front of me… this feels so surreal… why is this happening….?






Have I finally reached my breaking point…?







Until I realized… he’s now standing in front of me… with still our eyes locked with each other, he didn’t spoke a word… and just then I also realized that my heart wont stop from beating so fast… since when did it race like this…?







“Meet me after class…”







Finally I heard him say… his voice is calm… not his usual demanding tone… Those words that started everything… hearing it again somehow tells me that something’s going to start again….







I just then I snapped from my thoughts when the teacher called me to recite… how long have I been out of my consciousness…?







Huh…? Did he really told me that earlier…? Gosh Dara…! You’re even hallucinating things now…!







--






After the class… I was about to pack my things when CL called me.






“Dara-ah… Minji and I will go first… I think you two need to talk…”






But before I could stop her… she already sped off giggling… aisht…! So much for being my friend…!







He’s not here anymore… as soon as the teacher dismissed us, he quickly went out the room… I guess I really just daydreamed about him telling me that.







After I finished packing, I then made my way out… and suddenly out of nowhere, someone just pulled me by my wrist.







“Kyaaa…!”






I yelled a bit but quickly shut my mouth when I saw the person who pulled me.







“You really took your time packing eh…?”







He then took my hand and intertwined it with his… did I miss something here…? As far as I can remember, we hated each other since yesterday.






I quickly pulled my hand only to be grab it back and locked it with his again.







“Did you wait…?”







I asked him… I saw his brow raised… here he go again with his mood swing.







“I told you to meet me after class…”







He said as he grabbed my bag from me and carried it with his.






“Ah…. So I was not daydreaming about it after all…”







I said while rubbing my chin with my free hand… grinning like a mad person… I really thought I already lost my mind…






“What are you talking about…?”







He asked me… I turned to him and just smiled at him… he just rolled his eyes and started to walk, dragging me with him.







“Yah… wait…. What do you want…? Where are you taking me now…?”







I asked him after failing to pull my hand from him again… omo…! Is he planning to take me to that place again…?! Kyaaa…! I really don’t want to go back in there…!







“Listen… I know I was a jerk last night…”







Woah…! Am I hearing the this correctly…?!!!! Did Kwon Jiyong aka G-Dragon aka Mr opportunist aka perverted jerk just admitted that he was a JERK…?!! Kyaaaa…! I should’ve recorded that one…! Aigoo…!







“Huh…! You finally realized it huh…!”








I cut him off only to receive a deadly glare from him… I paused and gave him the chance to speak again… why am I feeling so giddy about this…?!! ha-ha…!








He sighed and slightly bowed his head… omo…! What’s happening to him…?!! I know I should freak out but seeing him like this really makes me want to capture it and use it against him…! waaaah….! Calm down Dara…! You don’t want to be like an opportunist like him..!








“Well… that was all because you pissed the hell out of me..! I told you to stay and wait for me but you chose to go with that mean-spirited fellow --“







I then cut him off again







“Yah…! I didn’t go with him…! I did wait for you but I didn’t expect him to drag me away…--“








He then cut me off… I raised a brow







“Could you just let me finish first…? I really don’t want to argue right now but you’re really starting to piss me off again.”






His voice sounded pissed… I could see his forehead creasing… I then pouted and stayed quiet… how could this jerk order me around…







We continued our way heading out the campus







“I never did anything with those sluts at the bar after you left…”







He said in a serious tone… I just rolled my eyes







“Pffft… as if I care…”







I hissed under my breath but he still heard it clear… he stopped from his tracks which caused me to stop too…







“Do you want me to shut that little mouth of yours…? I know you wouldn’t like it the way I’ll do it…”






He said teasingly… so I quickly pressed my lips together and shook my head… he smirked… aisht…! He looked ahead and then walking again.






“I went to your house last night…”







That made me gasp… my eyes widen… omo… did he saw Jaejoong coming over to our house…?






“Wha-what time did you came…?”







I put aside the fact that he wanted me to shut up….






I then bowed my head and I felt him turned back at me… I could even feel his brow rising up on me…







“I came just exactly you got home…I left after that…. Why…?”







I felt him tightened a bit of his hold on my hand








“Nothing…”







I said as I shook my head…and just then he stopped from his tracks again







“What…?”







I asked him and finally looked up only to see a blank expression on his face.








“Are you keeping something from me…?”







He said coldly







“Huh…? What do you mean…? Pl- plus what do you care if I have a secret…?”






Ghaaaad…! Why am I feeling so nervous about this…?!! I could even feel my hands sweating..! This guy…!







“Did Jaejoong go to your house last night…?”







Kyaaaa…! How did he knew that…?!! Am I that obvious to keep that from him…?!!







I just stayed stiff… my eyes were now both dry from keeping it wide open for I don’t know how long…







“He really did huh…”







I heard him speak…. And somehow I could feel a tinge of sadness in his voice… omo..! Why…? why is he being like this…?







And just then… I felt the warmth that’s been wrapping my other hand replaced by coldness as he slowly let go of my hand…







No don’t… suddenly I felt emptiness without his hold… everything went slow… I saw my hand went limp and dangled towards me… I looked at him and again…. The sadness from his voice slowly painted his face…







Why is he really acting this way…?







And why am I feeling this way…?







Is he mad again…?







But no… what I am seeing right now is far from what I saw in him yesterday…. There’s no sign of anger in his expression…but instead… pure sadness…??







“What did you two did…?”







I’m not really used to him being this way… he’s scaring me with his calm and sad voice than him being a jerk…







“Nothing…! We did nothing…! He… he just checked on me and of course I invited him in for a tea and after that nothing… he quickly went home after that…!”







I heard myself panicky explaining myself while I waved my hand in front of him… why am I being so defensive…? And why am I bothering to explain myself to him…? Yes…. It’s only because I don’t want his dirty mind to think of something low against me again…. Yes that’s it….







I felt my forehead creasing while waiting for a reaction from him… I saw his eyes shifted to the side and then back at me…







Oh God…! Jiyong don’t look at me like that….! It’s as if I’ve committed a grave sin for just letting Jaejoong inside our house…!







“I’m sure your family is in there right…?”







He said with his still cold voice…. Omo…! Why does he have to ask me that…?







“Uhmmm… well…”







My eyes wandered around… I can’t look straight at him… while I could feel his piercing gaze digging a hole on my body…! Kyaaa…! Stop this torture…!







“They’re not…?”






He finished off my sentence…. I feel like I’m going to pass out… I realized I’ve been holding up my breath for quite a while now…








After a while… I finally managed to nod… I slowly looked at him… and saw his jaw clenched… his brows slowly connecting with each other and his fist curled into a tight ball… ghaaad… I think I should run for my life now…! I think minute by now he’s going to explode from anger… kill the hell out of me and bury my body in this cemented pavement.







I was really planning to run off when suddenly I heard him sighed deeply… the slowly forming monster in him slowly calmed down until his face showed no sign of anger…







I felt my head tilting to the side…I’m confused… is he Kwon Jiyong…? Is this the result of him not taking his lunch earlier…? Coz if it is… I wish he would always not take his lunch even if he starves so that his evil side won’t dominate him ever again…







“Don’t ever let him in to your house again okay…?”






I heard him say… I felt myself quickly nodded… omo… is he for real…? He really wont go ballistic anymore by the mention of Jaejoong’s name…?







And just then I realized Jiyong isn’t in front of me anymore… I turned around and saw his back facing me… he’s now a couple of steps away from me… I saw his free hand stretched towards me…







He slightly turned his head to the side to see me






“Come on… I’ll take you home… I didn’t bring my car so we’ll just have to walk…”







I found myself nodding again and slowly ran to him… I know he’s acting kinda odd… but I can’t help but to comply on everything that he says







Upon reaching him… he quickly got my hand again and locked it with his… I just let him… for honestly… I felt a little happy and contented with the warmth his hand is giving mine… the emptiness that I felt once finally got replaced by his warmth.







We walked silently… our hands swayed a bit as we made our way… my heart started to beat wildly once again… and what’s strange to me is I’m liking the feeling of it…







At the side of my eyes… I could see his calm face… and now, maybe because of my now abused brain… I admit that he’s a bit… a little handsome… omo…! Am I becoming one of his fangirls now…?!







No… of course it’s only natural for a human being to admire another creature right…? Of course that’s it…!







And just then… I felt myself looking at him again… another kick in my heart when suddenly Minji and CL’s statements hit me again…







‘Don’t you feel something for him…?’






No…. it can’t be I am not… no...!







He then looked at me… his eyes caught mine once again… and instantly I felt like I was being sucked towards his orbs… oh god… make this heart stop from beating so fast… what if he hears it and then tease me about it… tell me that I’m falling for him… which is not…. Right…??? Ghaaaaaa…!







I saw his eyes widen… he even stopped from his tracks again… huh…? What’s his problem now…? Omo..! did he hear my heart…?! Kyaaa…! This is so embarrassing…!







I was about to explain myself when he suddenly pulled me towards him causing me to land on his chest…







Oh...! Such a wonderful feeling....







I then felt myself slowly closing my eyes… for I felt the sudden relaxation… my heart fluttered… I sighed…. His chest is so hard… so warm and I could hear his heart beats… slowly my arms with my other hand still locked with his, wrapped around his waist… I felt him stiffened a bit but I didn’t care…. Oh how I love feeling this moment…








Dara… you officially lost your sanity.








Hanging our bags on his shoulder… I felt his other hand caressing the back of my head…







“Yah…. You almost hit yourself with those cars… what were you thinking huh…?”








I heard him scolding me… but I didn’t care… ooh since when his voice felt like music to my ears…?








“Good thing I pulled you before you got hit… are you okay…? Are you crying…? Are you hurt…?”








Huh…? Cars…? Oh…







And just then I finally snapped out… I quickly let go of his waist and cleared my throat… I looked away as I could feel myself blushing with what I just did.







“Yeah…uhmmm… thanks… I’m okay now…. Ha-ha… I didn’t see those cars…. Come on let’s go… ha-ha…”







I stole a quick glance on him and saw a slight smile on his lips… he’s weird… no i think I'm the who's weird....! Gaaaah..! I knew it...! His sickness is really contagious...!








And now we’re back from walking… every now and then I would steal glance on him and would see the curve pasted on his lips… is he making fun of me…? But seeing that expression makes my heart flutter more… this is awkward… the silence between us makes it more awkward and him, acting like this makes me feel so weird…







After a couple of minutes… we finally made it to my house… I was about to pull my hand from him when he suddenly held it tight… I turned to him and saw him looking straight at me.







“What…?”







I asked him as I also tried getting my bag from him… he shifted his shoulder to the side so that I couldn’t get it from him… I raised a brow and he just smirked…







“Is your family home…?”







He asked me…







“No they aren’t…”






It came out to me automatically… I saw him smirked again… now what’s his problem…? Omo…! Is he planning on something…?!








“Why…? Where are they…? When are they coming back…? So your completely alone in there…--“







“Yah… yah…! What’s with the questions…? Are you planning on something huh…?!”







I cut him… he just grinned widely… finally he let go of my hand and gave my bag back to me…







“See you later baby…”







He said as he leaned towards me and pecked on my lips… he winked after he did it and then skipped his way home while waving his hand goodbye…







Huh…? What did he mean by that…?








I unconsciously reached for my lips and a smile crept on my lips… waaaahhh…! Why am I becoming this weird too…?!








--







After an hour since he left… I heard the doorbell rang… suddenly I felt nervous…. What if it’s Jaejoong again… omo…! That jerk will really kill me this time…







I walked slowly towards the door clutching on my chest… and when I opened it… I am more surprised as to who’s standing at the other side…







“Jiyong…! What are you doing here…?!”







And then my eyes shifted downward… my eyes widen as I saw couple of bags resting beside him… I turned to him again and saw him freshly showered… did he also perfumed…?! What’s wrong with this man..?!







“I’ll stay with you until you’re family’s home…”








He casually said… he carried his bags and was about to enter my house but I quickly blocked his way… this man..! How dare him to decide this on himself…!








“Wha- what are you talking about…! You can’t…! Are you crazy…?! You can’t stay here…!”








I yelled at him… he just rolled his eyes… ghaaaa…! He pushed me a bit and quickly made his way inside when he got the chance…







“Jiyong what are you thinking…! You can’t stay here…!”







I pulled one of his bags but he’s a lot stronger than me so he managed to pull it back…







“What…? Jaejoong could stay while I can’t…?”







He pouted… dropping the bags on the wooden floor… crossing his arms over his chest… he looks like a child having a tantrum...! ghaaa..! He’s really going to make me lose my mind…!







“It’s not that…! Plus Jaejoong didn’t insist staying here…! We just took a tea and he left after that…! That’s totally different from what you’re doing right now…! Now leave…!”







He just shrugged and made his way to our sofa… the guts…!!!







“I’m not leaving until you’re family’s home… I won’t let that b@stard come in here again… and you cheating behind my back…”








What…? What did he just said…?!! Cheating…?!!








I touched my forehead with my hand while the other supported my back… aigoo… this is so stressful…







“Jiyong leave or I’ll call the police…”







I told him in my most serious tone hoping he will believe me… he looked at me and then smirked.







“Sure sure… do as you want…”






He then lifted his feet and rested it on the coffee table as he turned on the TV







“Yah…! I’m serious…!”








I kicked his legs but he didn’t budge instead he just chuckled…







I then grabbed his hand and about to pull him up but he pulled me towards him causing me to crash down with him on the couch… my eyes widen again as I felt him snaked his arms around my waist… I struggled from his hold… tried to kick my way out but he locked my legs with his… I heard him continuously chuckling as I wrestled my way out from him…







After a couple of minutes… I grew tired… I felt my arms and legs sore from struggling… I panted in his embrace and felt him tighten his hold…







We were both lying down on the couch… with him behind me… hugging me from behind… my legs still curled with his… I could feel his hot breath tickling my nape… he too is panting…







He released one of his arm from my waist….leaving the other arm securely wrapped along my waist and arms… with his free hand… he began to brush my hair away from my face… wiping the formed sweat on my forehead… and my heart... my freaking heart then started to race once again…!!!







I kept my eyes locked on the TV in front of us…. Distracting myself from this weird feeling… and to what he's doing...








I felt him upped himself a bit and whispered something to my ear… I shivered a bit as his breath landed my ears and neck.







“Let’s just enjoy our time together neh baby…? I’ll TRY to behave...”







My eyes then widen as I felt his wet soft lips landed on the side of my neck…







Oh God… what did I get myself into again…?
