Chapter 3
Hyuna POV
Wow! I didn't realise that we had literally the same classes. Who would have thought? I thought as we neared the end of the day. Being loud was kinda hard for me. I'm not normally an outspoken girl and I did a lot of speaking today. Not fun. I was so tired, but I still wanted to invite Hyunseung over. It would be so weird if we lived next to each other, too.
When class was over Hyunseung walked over to me and asked if he could walk home with me. I complied and we started walking. We walked to the bus and got on. We it was our stop we got off and I lead the way to my house.
"This is so weird!" said Hyunseung.
"What is?"
"This is the exact way to my house!"
"What?!"
"Yeah! That's my house right there!" he said pointing. "Where is yours?" I pointed across the street from where he pointed. Wait we're neighbors?! That is sooo weird! I can't believe this! How did I not find out until now?!
"Hey you wanna come over, since you're here?" I invited. He nodded. He looked curious, like he wanted to see what the inside of my world. I guess if you call it my world. Anyways we walked up to my door and I put in the code for the door. I let him in first and followed him closing the door after me. Automatically he took off his shoes and stepped inside. I did the same and showed him to the living room.
"Feel at home. I'm just gonna go inside and change into something more comfortable." I headed towards my room after he sat down on the couch. I came out a few minutes later dresses in a pink t-shirt and skinny black jeans. He looked up and his jaw dropped. After a few second of awkward staring, he seemed to realise what he was doing and looked down embarrassed. I shrugged it off as a guy thing and then I went and sat in the armchair across from him. We basically just sat and looked at each other, not really sure what to do.
"So... you wanna eat something?" After a few minutes of silence.
"Yeah, sure." Relief spread over his face. I got up to go to the kitchen and Hyunseung followed.
Hyunseung POV
When Hyuna came out of her room, in that moment i realised how stunningly beautiful she is. Her pink t-shirt complimented her platinum blonde hair and her jeans complimented her figure. She was stunning. I couldn't believe it. I mean I thought she was cut before but this was different. She was… what am I doing?
I realised that I was staring and immediately looked away embarrassed. I saw her shrug from the corner of my eyes and she went to sit across from me. We just sat there looking at each other for what felt like a good five minutes. I was just about done with silence when Hyuna spoke up.
"So… You wanna eat something?" Relieved that the silence was broken, I nodded. She got up and I followed her to the kitchen. She opened the fridge and took out a few ingredients.
"So what do you want to eat?" she asked.
"I'm not sure what are my options?"
"Well, lets see. We have pasta, salad, pasta salad, take-out, and pizza. Take your pick."
"Hmm, I'll think I'll go with the pasta salad. Sounds interesting."
"Ohhh, you're in for a treat!" She then began to cut up vegetables.
"Do you want me to do something?" I felt weird just standing there staring.
"Can you get the pasta from the cupboard? That would be helpful." She told me which one and I got it out. Assuming that she wanted me to make the pasta too, I got a pot and filled it halfway with water. I put the pot on stove and waited for the water to boil. I was just about to put in the past when Hyuna stopped me from doing so.
"You can't put it in yet, or else they will turn out really weird. You need to wait until the water comes to a complete boil, then you put it in." She took the pasta from me and asked me to continue cutting the veggies. I complied.
It was a miracle, within twenty minutes, the food was ready and the table was set. We sat to eat. And of course it was silent for the whole eating session.
"Sorry," I jumped when I heard Hyuna speak.
"What for?" I asked confused at her sudden apology.
"I don't do this often and I usually eat in silence. So, im not really sure how to do the whole be a host thing."
"No, thats okay! I actually like eating in silence too. It gives me time to think and enjoy my food more. So yeah I totally get it."
"Yeah, but still this is my first time hosting anything on my own."
"Well you're doing pretty good for the first time. I can give you some tips if you want me to." Her eyes brightened at my words. It was so adorable i could just barely contain myself. She's cute when she's herself.
"Yeah I'd love the help!"
"Well first things first you need to know how do small talk. Like 'How was your day?' or 'Do you like the weather, today?' This like that. And then you need…" We kept talking for the majority of the night. She asked questioned and seemed actually eager to learn. Even so I could slowly see her to get more and more tired. Around midnight, I suggested that we meet at my house the next day after classes and we continue our conversation. She agreed almost immediately and showed me to the door. We bid each other goodnight and I left.
I crossed the street, got into my house, locked it, and changed, brushed my teeth, and plopped onto my bed. I was exhausted. It was a good day. I made up with Hyuna and befriended her. I was able to actually have notes for studying. And I got some answers that had been bugging me. So, yeah today was a good day. I thought back to when she came out of her room and immediately blushed. Why was I acting so strange? I mean it's not like anything happened. I just found out that she was really stunning, not just cute. I mean she still is cute, but like in a want-to-protect kind of way. She's really pretty, I wonder why I only found this out now. That's kinda strange. I drifted to sleep with Hyuna on my mind.
Hyuna POV
After I closed the door, I practically ran to the bathroom and got ready for bed as fast as I could. I flopped on my bed. I was so tired but my mind was kind of in hurricane of thoughts. It was trying to process all that it learned from the talk with Hyunseung. I told it that it would be able to do that while I sleep too. Once my brain was convinced of that, it slowly started to go into sleep mode. But just before I completely went under, a picture of Hyunseung's embarrassed face came into view. It was a strange thing to remember right then, but I put it aside and fell asleep.
