Yoohyeon's POV

When our ride finally ended I quickly got outside and untangled our hands with Minji. I went to stand beside Dami and I was trying to talk to her or Gahyeon. I was trying to avoid Minji. I just wanted to cry. Alone. Why love hurts so much?

Minji could only look at me confused. Yet she didn't say anything. When the limousine came to pick us up I sat beside Dami. She couldn't understand what was wrong with me. She didn't mind me sitting beside her. It was just... That she expected me to sit with Minji. I wasn't leaving her side the last few weeks. Or should I say month?

"What happened?" She whispered to me.

"She doesn't love me. I'll tell you later." I whispered back. Dami could only nod and held my hand feeling my pain. I squeezed it trying to ease my pain.

When we finally arrived home I didn't want to stay at the same room with Minji. Yet... I couldn't say to Handong to change rooms with me. Even if it would be for a night only. It would sound weird. And Minji would understand that something was wrong in an instant. I just texted Dami what had happened and lay down to bed trying to sleep. I wasn't in the mood to do anything. Minji lay down too. But like yesterday I wasn't looking at her way. This time, she rested her hands on my waist trying to came closer to me like she always does at nights. This time though, I tried to pull myself away. I tried to not make it obvious. But this time, her touch could only burn me, could only burn my skin and hurt me pretty badly.

"Yoohyeon,... is there something wrong?" Minji asked a bit hesitant. She also used my full name without a pet name or something. Which meant that it was serious.

"No, nothing. I'm just tired."

"But... Even if you are tired. You always want me to hug you to sleep." She said. She sounded a bit hurt. How could I hurt her? How could I be harsh to her? How could I resist her? I couldn't. And even if it hurt me, I just... Ended up giving in. I turned around and hugged her. She was the only person I wanted to hug and cry in her arms. Even if she was the one hurting me...

"Are you satisfied now unnie?" I asked her.

"Is it about satisfying me? I thought you wanted it. I thought it helped you sleep easier." She said. She sounded even more hurt now. Great! Just great!

"No! I didn't mean it like that. I'm just saying. Do you feel fine now?" I wasn't looking at her.

"No. I'm not. If you don't feel fine with it then I'm not either."

"I'm fine with it unnie. I just asked cause you were the one grumbling about it. So are you fine?"

"No. I'll be fine if you look at me straight in my eyes and tell me what's wrong. I'm observing you since the roller coaster ride was ended and you weren't talking to me that much, not holding my hand either. Is there something wrong? Did I do something wrong?" She asked worriedly.

"No! You did nothing wrong. I'm fine. It's just... I think I ate too much. And the ride made my stomach hurt. I'm tired unnie. Let's talk about it tomorrow, ok?" I lied to her. It wasn't actually a lie. But it wasn't the truth either.

"Is it really just this? Just a simple stomach ache?" I nodded looking at her in the eyes. How could I lie to the most important person in my life? The one I loved so much? More than anyone else? How could I stare at her in the eyes and lie? I was cruel!! But... It was for the best... cause I couldn't just tell her that she was the one that was hurting me.

She smiled at me and hugged me.

"Did you take a medicine or something?" She asked me.

"No. I felt a little better so I thought it was over and didn't take any pill. I'll be fine. I just have to rest and I'll be fine. Goodnight unnie." I said softly and closed my eyes trying to avoid her once again and end this conversation as fast as I could. She kissed my forehead and said,

"Goodnight my puppy." But I couldn't fall asleep. Even if I was in her arms. I was a liar. And I was also hurt too. I hugged her tightly trying to feel the warmth I always felt with her. And I felt it. But it also hurt so much more than it should be. When she was finally asleep I cried silently in her arms till I fell asleep too...

Next morning I woke up feeling numb. I was feeling dead. My body was on fire and I was feeling so lonely suddenly. Even if Minji was beside me. She was still sleeping so I just stood up as quietly as I could. I went to the kitchen and cooked something to eat. I was lost in my thoughts when...

"Morning Yoo. Are you ok?" Siyeon asked me and observed my face.

"You look tired."

"Why are you up?" I asked her avoiding to answer her.

"I had to drink some water. You didn't answer me though. Are you fine?"

"Yeah..." I lied once again. It wasn't necessary for her to know. She had already too much on her mind. She was already hurt by me. It would be too much to talk to her about my pain. It would be best for me to carry it on my own. Like I always do.

She nodded, drank a glass of water and headed back to her room. It was early still. Around half past eight. No one was awake. No one except me and my broken heart. I went to the living room and opened the TV. It might distract my mind. It didn't though... It just made my eyes hurt and I fell asleep on the couch without realizing it.

"Hey! Yooh! Wake up! It's twelve o'clock. How many more hours are you going to sleep?" Someone shook me and woke me up. I opened my tired eyes and rubbed them. My vision was a bit blurry and my eyes still hurt. But I could see that Handong was the one trying to wake me up. At least she seemed like Handong.

"Good morning. Why are you sleeping here?" She asked me and headed to the kitchen. I followed her, still sleepy. In the kitchen there was no one except Minji who was cooking something.

"Morning. I fell asleep." I simply said. I was too weak to look over to Minji or even greet her. Handong already knew. Dami had told her. So she gave me an understanding look.

"Eat something. Minji is cooking for you. The rest of us are in the swimming pool. Come there to find us later, ok?" She said and left me alone with Minji. I pleaded her with my eyes to not leave. But she signaled me that I should move on and not held my pain in and let things get even more weird with Minji.

I was quiet. Minji put my plate with food in front of me and sat beside me. I was eating silently till...

"Why were you sleeping on the couch?" She asked me seriously without looking at me. Great. I was feeling awful again. My body was already feeling too weak and too drained and out of energy. It was burning too. I couldn't feel my legs and arms too. And all I could feel was my heart that was in pain. Yet... I couldn't just tell her.

"I fell asleep watching TV." I simply said.

"And why were you there watching TV on your own?"

"I woke up. It was still early. I was hungry. I didn't want to wake you up. You were sleeping so peacefully so I didn't want to disturb you. I cooked something to eat. But after I ate, I still wasn't feeling sleepy. So I just went to the living room to watch some TV. And then I fell asleep. Is this enough of explanation?" I said and took my plate that was empty now to clean it.

"Wait, what? Enough of explanation? What's wrong with you? You seem weird since yesterday night. What happened? You were never that pissed talking to me. Is that bad that I care for you?" She was hurt and angry too. I don't want you to care in that way. In that friendly way, Minji...

"I'm sorry." I just said. I hugged her trying to show her that it was ok. I couldn't find any words to tell her actually.

"I... I can't find the right words to tell you. I'll be fine though. No need to worry." I said and smiled slightly to her. She smiled back. A small one. Mayde it was enough for us to stay as friends... It wasn't enough for my broken heart at the moment but I knew that I couldn't bear living with her at all in my life.

"Let's go change. The girls are waiting for us." I said. I wasn't in the mood for anything and my body was aching too much. Maybe some hot water would make it relax a little and stop hurting so much. I hoped at least. As for my broken heart... I really didn't know...

We both changed and went to the swimming pool at the back of the living room. It was a big one and the water was hot. Bora was having so much fun. Everyone had. I shouldn't be like this. Heartbroken. I should bury it deep down in my heart and pretend like everything was fine. Everything was fine anyway...

I went in the water and my body immediately responded to the hot water. My muscles immediately started to relax and I felt a lot better. I buried my head under the water and stayed there for some seconds. Till I got up to take a breath. And as I did, I saw Minji in front of me. I froze...

(Of course she is wearing just a bikini and not that clothes lol😂 I just wanted the expression and the wet hair, which are blonde in this story by the way!)

She had that unreadable expression in her face, her eyes piercing through mine. She was looking at me so intensely I thought I was going to die! She was so close to me. And as if the water wasn't already hot suddenly I felt even more hot. Her blonde hair were wet and all over her face and shoulders. I didn't even want to mention for the rest of her wet, sexy, exercised, toned body. She smiled to me and splashed me some water. She then ran off laughing like an innocent child. I was speechless. Till Gahyeon's splashes to me brought me back to reality.

"Someone is SO in love! And it's SO obvious!" Bora shouted to me and that was enough to triggered my senses. I started running towards her and splashing her as much water as I could.

"Bora you're SO DEAD!" I shouted. She was running and laughing at the same time. I rushed to her and started splashing her all over till she couldn't breath either from water or laughing so hard.

"Enough! Enough!!! Can't breathe!" She shouted even if she was struggling to breathe. I let her breathe and went to splash my new victim. Gahyeon. The poor kid was running so scared shouting for help. And of course the girls run to help their beloved maknae!

"Yah! No one touches the maknae! You have to come over me first!" Handong said protectively. Dami agreed. I smiled and started splashing them too. Minji splashed me from behind. But I didn't splash her back. I wanted to have fun with my friends. And I wasn't sure if I was still fine with her around me.

"Aish! We are two Dong-ah! We can't let her win this over!" Dami struggled. I laughed. Siyeon came beside me and started splashing them too. I smiled victoriously.

"Traitor!" Bora shouted and came beside Handong and Dami to help them over. Gahyeon and Yeri were hiding behind them. And with all this mess I didn't pay attention to Minji. And that's when she made her move of course! She dragged me by my shoulders down in the water with her. All I saw was her blurred face under the water. She was so close and she looked so ethereal. Her blond hair everywhere in the water. This felt so surreal. I leaned in and kissed her on the lips and then everything became black...
