Mina POV

"Mina." Someone voice call me.

"What?" I groan rolling over on the bed and burying my arms under the cold underside of the pillow.

"Why is there boy on your bed?" Unnie asked.

"Huh?" I quickly open my eyes and see Sunmi unnie eyeing Chaeyoung, who fast asleep.

"Oh, handsome boy." She said smirk.

"You're lucky dad's not home yet." She add still looking at Chaeyoung.

"Oh shoot! I forgot he was here." I said panic.

"Why is he here exactly?" Unnie asked now look at me.

"He came over to give me something I forgot on the trip. He was looking at my room and accidentally fell asleep." Well, he's not accidentally, but I don't want to tell unnie to make her more curious.

"Then why are you on the bed with him?" Now, she teasing me.

"Whatever, I don't want to know. You better do something before dad gets home." She said.

"You're right." I sit up and inch closer to Chaeyoung who laying on his stomach with the left side of his face pressed on the pillow.

Gently, I poke at his arm. "Hey Chaeyoung. You should get up." I said and he rolls over onto his back but still shut his eyes.

"Chaeyoung—."

I don't know why I should expect this already. Of course, Chaeyoung pulls me into him without knowing Sunmi unnie is in the room. And as always, I struggle to escape but never successful. I keep looking awkwardly at Sunmi unnie, embarrassed. Sunmi unnis didn't said anything and leaves the room laughing under her breath.

"Chaeyoung! You idiot! My sister was in here!" I scold once unnie was gone.

Chaeyoung start to open his eyes and his mouth curls up into playful grin.

"What? Can't I even hug my buddy?" He said smirk.

"I have never seen you hug any of the guys like this." I scoff.

"How you know? You never been at our sleepovers." Chaeyoung jokes.

For a moment I forget that I'm still on the top of Chaeyoung. I quickly sit back up and Chaeyoung doesn't stop me or pull me back down. Instead, he push himself up to sit.

"Chaeyoung, you can't hug me. People will misunderstanding. I would misunderstanding." I said.

"What do you mean misunderstanding? We're buddies." He coos.

"I'm serious Chaeyoung. We don't want people to think our relationship is anything but a simple, friendship." I said again.

He doesn't response and looks closely at me with his eyebrows knit together. Did I say something wrong?

"What am I saying? I mean look at me. No one would think that." I laugh.

There's a long pause before Chaeyoung starts to speak. "Mina, I think you're —." Then my dad voice can be hear.

"Mina! Why there is motorcycle in the front?" In flash he at my door.

He opens his mouth to talk but when he see me. No, when he spot Chaeyoung sitting on my bed with me, he totally shuts his mouth. He look at me and Chaeyoung confused.

"Who's this?" He finally asked.

"This is Chaeyoung. The classmate I told you I'm tutoring." I nervously replied.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Myoui." Chaeyoung greet my dad.

"Nice to meet you too." Dad replies slowly.

"We were just studying for a biology quiz. That's okay with you right? I mean, we just finished." I try to make up excuse.

"Sure." Dad leaves without another word with his eyes on us until he gets too far down the hall.

"Is your dad okay?" Chaeyoung asked.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's just shocked I brought a boy over for the first time." I said.

"I'm the first boy you have had over?" He said curious.

"Yep." I simply replied.

Chaeyoung turns away, smiling to himself. I bet he thinks I'm a loser who never had a guy over. Then, he turn to me and smiling widen.

"I'm relieved." He said smiling and sigh.

"What?" I'm confused.

"Nothing." He quickly replied.

I eye him suspiciously but Chaeyoung avoids my by looking at random things on my desk.

"Mina, did you eat all the food?" Dad calls from down.

"Sorry!" Chaeyoung smiles at the idea of my excessive eating habits.

"Then, order pizza. Oh, and some breadstick with wings." Dad shout and hear tv click on.

"You can stay for food if you want." I suggest.

""Sure." He agree without hesitation.

He slips off somewhere as I go to order pizza. Once I went downstairs, I find him on the couch sitting next to my dad. Ehh? This scene is too bizarre for me too process. So, I quickly went to kitchen to get some water. Usually when Jihyo, Sana and Tzuyu come over, dad just say hi to them and just asked if they already eat or going to spend a night. However, dad seemed so engaged with Chaeyoung and its weird.

Periodically, I would stick my head out of the kitchen to check up on them and they would be watching the game while critiquing the play or players. I didn't understand anything since I don't know the lingo. But they seem to be into the same thing. Weird. The door bell rings and I go to check. Now, even Sunmi unnie is on the couch with them talking. Weird. I pay the delivery guy and juggle two boxes of pizza, three boxes of wings and a bag of breadstick. Chaeyoung went to me to help and I set onto the coffee table in front of the couch. I know my dad, once he gets into the game he's not leaving that couch until its over.

Since the food is in living room, I just sit there with them by forced. Unless I willing to go back and forth. I sit on the floor and Chaeyoung changes his seat from the couch to the next to me. While Sunmi unnie sit the others sides, leaving dad on in the middle of the couch. They throw bunch of football term that I don't know and even shocked Sunmi unnie also know about the term leaving me who the one don't understand anything what's going on.

Quietly I munch on the food while scrolling aimlessly on my phone. I just hoping my friend would text me. But, there is nothing. Yet, I can't help but keep refreshing the page in hopes ones will pop out soon.

"Maybe I should send something? What would I send?" I speak on my mind.

Me : Do we have a biology quiz coming up?

I refresh and refresh and refresh. But, there's nothing. Read. But still there's no reply. I see Jihyo was typing but nothing was send. She must have changed her mind. I sigh.

"Mina." Chaeyoung whisper.

"Huh?" I jerk my head up to see Chaeyoung peering over my shoulder.

"You okay? You've been looking at the same screen for ten minutes now." He said.

"Yeah, I'm just spaced out." I quickly close out of it and set my phone on the table.

I grabbing a breadstick and continue to eat. I keep glance at my phone still hoping there's someone will reply but as the game end, its nothing. Surprising, dad invites Chaeyoung to come again next week to watch the game. I'm even more thrown off when Chaeyoung actually agree. Chaeyoung goes out towards his motorcycle and I follow him out.

"You don't have to come if you don't want to." I said.

"Eh? Of course I will come. That was fun. My family doesn't do stuff like this." He said smiling.

"They don't?" I asked a bit shocked.

Well, its normal thing for us. Watching the game while eating in front of tv. Basically we do this every weekends, even I don't understand at all, but I got to eat.

"My dad always at work. My mom and my sister don't like kind of these stuff. They're usually do their thing. Well, I'm not interested get red nails and getting new skirt. So, I don't come with them." Chaeyoung laugh but his eyes look downcast.

"Well, anyways thanks returning my octopus." I said.

"Thanks for the new wallpaper for my phone." He said smiling.

"Wait, what?" I asked confused.

"Well, you look so cute with your hair messy hair waves draped over your pillow. With your arms elegantly spread across the bed with your neck trying to hold up your dangling head which about to fall of your pillow. And with your cute mouth slightly open with little drool seeping out. Aww, isn't cute." He said teasing me.

"What the heck! Where is it? Delete it now Son Chaeyoung!" I groans to him.

"Nahh, Its will be my favourite." He said pulls out his phone and taps around before putting back on his helmet, hops on his motorcycle and starts the engine. My phone rings and I quickly pull it out hoping my friend finally texting me. But, nope. Its was Chaeyoung who literally two feet away from me. Its a picture of me sleeping.

Chaeyoung :

My sleeping beauty 💕

Chaeyoung pull away laughing as I look at my phone in red. Smile approach at my face as I feel the hammer on my chest starting again.

"Night, sleeping beauty. I will see you tomorrow!" He said give me flying kiss.

Argh, why he has to do this to me? Why Son Chaeyoung? Why?
