*** Submitted by carolinazombie. Guy’s this story is so beautiful and fluffly. I hope all of you enjoy it as much as I did :)***
You were as usual behind the counter at the coffee shop where you worked for some three months now, and as always, you were daydreaming, this was already a well-known routine of you, every time one of the regular customers showed, your mood increased incredibly and all you could do was following him with your gaze.
You were a shy person, so you couldn’t even speak to him, actually it was hard for you to talk with the people, it took you 2 weeks to start talking properly to your co-workers, that’s how you are, that’s all you could do. And you were happy with that.
Your co-workers knew how you feel because of Jinyoung, and they always tried to make you see that you needed to start talking to him but you always told them that it was something “impossible”, and that you were happy with just watching him come and go, every day.
You always thought that it was love at first sight. Every time that he entered the front door of the coffee shop, your heart started beating like a crazy machine, and your checks become red. He would always come with a smile, the smile that has always made you feel like you were melting, but as fast as he came, he walked away, leaving you with a huge depression, and you couldn’t help but make it obvious when your smile became a sad smile, and your eyes do nothing but look at the front door, waiting…
That day wasn’t different from the rest; you were in your usual spot just waiting, with a happy smile, always looking at the front door, every time the bell announced that someone had enter the shop, you would look as fast as you could just to see if it was Jinyoung with his magnificent smile, but every time ended with a sad smile, you spend almost 3 hours like that, feeling every time more and more sad, at the end you got to give up on it, thinking that he would not come today. Almost five minutes after that, you hear the bell of the front door, turned to see who your next client was, your eyes met with his, and his lips turned into that well-know smile of his, that always drove you crazy.
Your face became as red as a tomato, and your body acted on its own, hiding yourself behind the counter like a little kid that was caught doing something wrong. Jinyoung chuckled at your sudden action, walking to the casher to ask for his usual order. When you realized your own actions, your face blushed a lot more, if that was even possible, you scolded yourself for being that obvious, once you finally came out of the counter, you find yourself looking for Jinyoung who walked to one of the tables that were in the other side of the shop with his friends behind, that was the first time that you actually saw his friends, once that they finally sat at the table, Jinyoung again made his way to the casher to pick up his order, once he was ready to again walk to his table, he turned to see you and give you one of his charming smiles that made your heart stop beating, then he continued walking to the table. Once you stop watching him, you could feel how your heart started beating again.
You recharged your head on the desk feeling exhausted and ashamed - “This is going to end up killing me …” you sighed closing your eyes.
“What is going to end up killing you?” - You froze feeling how your face turned red again, that voice was unmistakable, at least for you, but…that couldn’t be him…right?, he was in the table with his friends… you looked up just to reaffirm your worst expectative, there was him with that curiosity in his eyes, smiling while trying to find out who you where talking about.
-I…I…hm…y-yo…u….nothing…”- as fast as you looked up to see him, you turned your face away, trying to hide your gaze.-
-“is that so? “- His gaze was fixed on your face, and his smile widened when he saw you blushing because of his presence.
It was the first time that you actually feel like punching his face, so he would not have that smile, trying to control yourself, you breathed deep as you could, trying to think in one phrase that actually would make sense, for your bad luck, your mind always became blank when he was near you – “D-do you need anything?”-
His eyes widen for your sudden question, his smile disappeared and became a fine line, while his expression changed showing how he was starting to think on what he was about to answer. You kept looking at his face, ending day dreaming about, how his other expressions where, and how would he be with his friends… a smile appeared in your face as you started thinking about how would he be with his girlfriend…
Jinyoung P.O.V
She looked so beautiful day dreaming, she didn’t even realize when I started looking at her, I was so spaced out thinking in how to ask her out. From the past 3 months I have been coming to this cafeteria, and ask for the same order over and over again, it was something pretty normal in me before, but now I was so decided in going every day, just to see her face, every day was the same, I’ll go and ask for the same as always, looking for the perfect chance to ask her out, but every time that the chance came up, I ended up talking to the cashier, I even end up asking her for the name of _____.
This day wasn’t different at all, well…just a little because of the guys who insisted a lot in coming up with me, saying that they wanted to “support” me but they were actually, just teasing me. This was finally my chance to do it, just a simple question and everything will be fine…or awkward…I rather think it would be fine…at least I’ll have her answer, knowing if she likes me or not, I just need to ask her.
-I looked at the boys in the table, Sandeul was eating as always not paying a lot of attention in what was going on, Gonchan was just smiling at me and moving his head in approval, But Dongwoo and Baro were hiding behind their chairs looking directly at me, pretending to be spies or something, when they realized that I was looking at them, they smiled and gave me a thumbs up to support me, but actually they just were making me more nervous and embarrassing me. I sighed a little turning again to face _____, I was ready to do it, I would finally do it, I have to do it, or then Baro would come and ask her out or maybe they would just make me feel more embarrassed, I shacked my head trying to concentrated – “Let’s do it Jinyoung, it’s now or never, she just asked if you needed something, you just have to say “yeah…your number for example…DAMN BARO! You and your stupid pick up line would never work!, she probably thinks that I am so full of myself or something, no, I can’t say that, I will just ask her out in my own way…oh god, what is that way?…”-
I took a deep breath, ready to ask her out, my mouth opened making ____ to look at me, I was ready, it was coming, finally I would ask her out…”Would you…Would you give me that strawberry cake?, I love strawberries, they are the best. Do you like strawberries? You can’t hate them; they are just the best thing in the world…”-
Her face became indescribable, like if she was trying to actually understand what I just said to her, my commentary and order were just answered with an awkward smile in her face, that actually make me feel so ashamed of me, did I seriously say that?, she just handed me the cake, and I just smiled a bit, trying to run to my table as fast as I could, this time I seriously messed up.-
When I arrived the table I gave the cake to Sandeul saying something like “Eat that”, I sat at the table hiding my face in my hands, this time I seriously messed it up.
-Baro tried to comfort me, putting one of his hands in my shoulder –“Come on Jinyoung…you seriously hit on her with that strawberries comment.”- He teased me laughing a bit, making me actually growl, he obviously wasn’t making me feel any better.-
-“come on Baro, don’t you see that the poor Jinyoung is hurt?”- Sandeul stop eating, trying to stop Baro of making fun of me. – But I actually admit that I love strawberries, who wouldn’t love strawberries?- Sandeul made fun of me, causing that everyone started laughing at what I said. Seriously, this really were my friends?-
-Dongwoo looked at me, and then turned to see ____ working – “she is actually pretty”- Baro turned also turned his face to look at her – “yeah, she Is pretty. Yah!, Jinyoung if you don’t ask her out, I’ll” – saying that he was just about to ahead to the counter, until I stopped him pulling him by the arm. – “YAH!, stop teasing me!”- I just walked to the counter with new motivation-
Your P.O.V
You just keep looking at the same stop since Jinyoung actually walked away, that was pretty random, but maybe that was how he was with every one, right? UGH he was so difficult! – Frustrated all of sudden you sighed, trying to calm down a bit, you were exhausted with the only idea of him in the coffee shop, but now!…you actually had a “conversation” with him, your heart almost stopped working when he talked to you. – You dropped yourself in the nearest chair, trying to recover yourself from all the emotions.-
-Just then your co-workers walked out of the kitchen with a creepy smile on their faces, you were actually a little scared of them – “so…”-
-“so…What?”- You looked at them a little confused-
-“oh…nothing…we were just curious about…you know…DID HE ASKED YOU OUT? – both of them looked at you with an excited smile, you looked at them as if they were crazy, but then you just chuckled smiling, making them a lot more excited than they were, if that was even possible, when you were about to open your mouth to talk, you can almost hear their excited screams – “YAH! Are you both on drugs or something?”-
-They looked at you a little offended –“aish this girls always saying no sense…”-you whispered to yourself before giving at them a compressive smile, ready to explain them everything- Nothing happened, he just asked me for that strawberries cake that we had, did you guys seriously thought that he would just ask me out?, come on!, he is perfect, I am just an employed, he would never like me, as much as I wish he would – you sighed to your self – I just have an unrequited love ok?- you looked at them again, but they were having that creepy smile again, you looked confused now, what was going on?, before you could actually ask anything they just walked away letting you saw one little Jinyoung a little bit shocked because of what he just heard.
-your face became deep red, as you tried to keep on calm, but when you saw that Jinyoung was about to talk, you just walked, well, you actually started running to the kitchen hiding yourself next to the refrigerator that was next to the back door, you would be there until your shift ended, and maybe you would switch your place with someone at the kitchen so that, you wouldn’t have to saw Jinyoung for a while.
After what it felt like years, your shift was over, and you were able to go home, you changed your uniform and headed to the back door of the coffee shop, with a lot of caution you opened the door looking at the sides of the street trying to see if someone was there waiting for you. Finally you started walking a little fast just in case, you were praying that Jinyoung would not be waiting for you, he wouldn’t, right? It was mean less, why would he be waiting for you if he was going to turn off your confession, you started mentally scolding yourself, you were making a illusion in your head, a Illusion that would never happen.
-“Yah!, _____, wait!”- Jinyoung voice made you snap out of your thoughts and froze were you were, you didn’t want to face him so you keep your head down, he walked as fast as he could just to catch you up, he was looking at your back, trying to think and how to ask the next question. You were terrified, your worst nightmare was becoming truth, and you were just preparing yourself to hear him up, he would probably tell you about his gorgeous girlfriend or something like that.
Again you were snapped out of your thoughts because Jinyoung catch your arm trying to make you look at him, he turned you around so now you were face to face, you close your eyes feeling so embarrassed, you thanked that it was too dark so he wouldn’t see how red was your face now.
-“W-why did you run away like that?”- he was looking at you with worried eyes, you didn’t want to look at him directly, all you wanted to do was run away again and hide yourself under a huge rock, again the voice of Jinyoung made you look at him –“is…is it true?…you…you like me?”-
-Your eyes winded as you processed the question, did you seriously needed to answer that? You were getting frustrated with yourself as you felt how you couldn’t even speak, your eyes started to feel how your eyes started to burn a little, making you feel how little tears where fighting to go out, you breathed deeper trying to fight the tears, and making a little move with your head doing a affirmation nod.
-you saw how his body took a deep breath and let go your arm, the next think you knew was that you were in Jinyoung embrace, his heart was beating as fast as yours, you could feel his warm and damn it felt so good, you wished that time would stop and let you stay like that forever, you felt how his body vibrate at the sound of his voice coming up. – “I…”- you snapped out again back to reality, maybe the worst part was coming up, and you were about to be rejected, you close your eyes again trying to ignore the thing that Jinyoung would say, even known that it would be impossible –“the reason why I come to the coffee shop that often…”- he took a deep breath again, for some reason this time he was having a lack of air. –that…you…you are that reason…- he sighed as he let it go, finally he could say it, it felt as if a big pressure was gone.
-as if you were told something super crazy, you looked at him all confused, was he talking seriously? His eyes and smile that always melted you confirmed it, he actually liked you, you lost your internal fight with the tears that now were falling from your eyes, you tried to calm down yourself breathing, waiting for Jinyoung ending what he was saying.-
-Jinyoung hugged you tightly as he saw your little tears falling, he was trying to comfort you while he tried to calm his heart beat that was about to burst out of his chest, that day was actually a total madness.-
After what it look like a lifetime, you finally stop crying and Jinyoung was a lot more relaxed, he took your hand in his, and started walking to your house, he insisted a lot in walking you home, saying that it was too dangerous for a pretty girl to walk alone at night, after a little while, Jinyoung stop walking all of sudden making you stop a little after him, you turned to face him, and he was looking you with that well-known smile of his, you looked at him confused of his sudden action, and he just chuckled still looking at you. – “So…”-
-“what?” – You smiled a little at his sudden nervous-
-Jinyoung cleared his throat before he started speaking –“would you like to…I don’t know…go for a walk one of those days?” –
-“Are you asking me out?” – Now you were teasing him with a big smile –
-“m-maybe…” - you chuckled – “Hm…I don’t know…the guy I like may end up getting jealous…” – you looked at him with a playful smile, that he returned, just then you started walking away to your home-
-YAAH!, what did I told you?!, and you didn’t even answer my question!, YAH!, _____ , I am talking to you!- he screamed as he tried to catch you- “YAAH!, date me!”- He laughed as he ran after you.
That was the start of everything…
