Next day~
I had just finished getting ready for our outing. Everyone had made plans, and I was excited to finally get out for a bit. As I adjusted the last strand of my hair, a knock echoed from the door.
"Ready to go?" Sieun asked."Yes, let me grab my phone." I quickly got my stuff, locked the house, and turned back to him. "Let's go?" I asked."Wait." He grabbed my wrist, and I paused, confused. "You look really pretty," he said, smiling at me.When we reached the café, I quickly noticed Younhi and Sooho sitting in a booth while Boemseok stood by the billing counter."Yeah, Jiaa! Come here!" Sooho yelled. Has this boy got no social anxiety?I just waved back at him before heading to Boemseok. "Did those idiots make you pay again?" I asked, pulling out my purse. "It's fine," he said quickly, noticing what I was doing. But I was faster, swiping my card before he could stop me. "You didn't have to do that, you know," he muttered, sounding a bit annoyed."Shut up and enjoy the treat, boi," I shot back, grinning.While I was scrolling through my phone, waiting for the order, I noticed Boemseok staring at the trio sitting at the booth. I was about to ask him what was up, but the order arrived before I could. I slid into the seat beside Sieun, directly across from Sooho and Youngyi, leaving Boemseok to sit at the side. "What's with you two?" Youngyi asked suddenly, her tone teasing. It took me a second, but soon I realized everyone was staring at me and Sieun. "What do you mean?" I asked, trying to sound nonchalant. "You're both wearing blue," Sooho pointed out, raising an eyebrow dramatically while loudly slurping his drink.
I hadn’t noticed it before, but we were both wearing blue. (Okay, maybe I had asked him to send a picture of what he was wearing earlier… but that’s beside the point.)
"You don’t make any sense," I said, trying to control my smile as I sipped my drink, pretending to brush off Sooho’s observation.

The Previous Day
"Please... say something," he whispered, his voice barely audible, laced with vulnerability.
I felt my heart pounding as I looked into his eyes. "Yes," I whispered, my voice soft but steady. "I'd love to be your girlfriend."
His eyes widened for a moment before a small smile tugged at his lips.
I smirked, leaning in closer until our faces were just inches apart. "Took you long enough," I murmured, my voice low.
Before he could respond, I closed the gap, pressing my lips to his in a confident kiss.
Back to now
"Wait, are you two a thing now?" Sooho gasped. I just smiled and gave him a casual nod.
"Wow, and you didn’t even tell me?" he asked, dramatic as ever.
"Since when?" Boemsoek asked, like he was interrogating us.
"Yesterday," Sieun replied with a straight face.
"Wow, you actually stole my boyfriend?" Youngyi said, making me almost choke on my drink. What is she even talking about?
"He was never yours to begin with, darling,"
