~Xi Luhan~

Oo na. Ako na ang naghahabol. Eh ano naman ngayon?! Ayaw pa kasing aminin na bakla din siya. Nakaka-asar! Feeling manly, eh ako nga dapat ang nagsasabi nun! Alam ko namang kahit papano, may feelings din sakin tong poker face snowman na to.

"Sehun!" sigaw ko saka lumapit sakanya. "Kumain ka na?"

Binigyan niya ako ng boring na tingin saka umiling. "Hindi pa." sagot niya. "Ililibre mo ba ako? Kasi kung hindi, hindi ako sasama sayo."

"Syempre ililibre kita!" mabilis kong sagot. "Ako pa ba, ha?"

Natawa siya saka umiling. "Konti nalang maniniwala na akong may gusto ka talaga sakin ah." sabi niya. "Nakakadala yang mga pa-sweet mo, Luhan."

Inirapan ko siya saka hinila yung braso niya patayo. "Eh may gusto naman kasi talaga ako sayo, ano ba?" mahina kong sabi. "Ayaw mo talagang maniwala?!"

Tinignan lang niya ako saka tinaasan ng isang kilay. "Sus." sabi niya at natawa ulit. "You can't fool me, you know? And besides... you keep on telling me before that you're 'manly'."

Iniwas ko yung tingin ko habang inis na inis parin. Bakit kasi sinabi ko pa yun noon?! Hindi ko naman kasi akalain na maiinlove ako sa snowman na to!

Hinila ko siya palabas ng room. "Kumain na nga lang tayo!" inis na sabi ko at tinignan siya ng masama. "Halikan kita diyan eh, makikita mo."

Agad naman siyang tumawa ng malakas saka inakbayan ako. "Ano ka ba?" tawa niya. "Lalake tayong dalawa, huwag ka nang magpaka-bading diyan. Maniniwala na talaga ako." warning pa niya sakin.

"Eh maniwala ka na kasi!!!"

Bigla siyang tumigil sa paglalakad saka tumingin sakin ng diretso. "Luhan.." seryoso niyang sabi habang nakatingin sa mga mata ko. "We're friends, right?"

Dahan-dahan akong tumango.

"Don't ruin it." bigla niyang sabi na nagpalaki sa mga mata ko. "I am not falling for a guy. We're friends, yes and we're really close. But... Luhan, i don't... i won't fall for you."

Umiwas ako ng tingin at naramdaman ko ang unti-unting pagbitaw sakin ni Sehun. Nang tignan ko siya ulit,naglalakad na siya palayo. Agad akong tumakbo at hinabol siya.

Psh. Dami mong alam. Maiinlove ka din sakin. Pramis!

~Do Kyungsoo~

"Sabi nila matalino ka daw." mahinang sabi ni Jongin habang gumagawa siya ng assignment sa may desk niya. Nakaupo naman ako dito sa kama ko habang nagbabasa ng libro. I looked down at him and frowned.

"Jongin... kung pick-up line yan, huwag mo nang subukan." i said and rolled my eyes. "Laos na yan. Yung Nae Nae dance na ang sikat ngayon." binalik ko ulit yung tingin ko sa libro ko nang marinig ko siyang tumawa.

"I am not into pick-up lines, okay?" he laughed. "Ano ka, pick-up guy?"

I scoffed and continued reading.

"What i am trying to say is that... it's ironic how you're so intelligent and yet you don't know those simple things." he said and grinned at me. He bit his lip to stifle a laughter and i found it so damn sexy.

I tried to look away. "L-like?" i challenged him. "Like the word 'yadong'?"

"Like love." sagot niya saka ngumiti ng malaki. "Hindi mo manlang namalayan na inlove ka na pala sakin. I wonder how that felt."

I rolled my eyes and glared at him. "Love is not simple, you know?" i said and closed my book. I put it over my lap and crossed my arms over my chest. "Cause if it's simple, then i can say that what i feel for you is so basic."

Jongin laughed and shook his head in amusement. He pointed a finger at me. "Good point you made there, Mr. Do."

Napabuntong hininga ako saka dumapa sa kama habang nakaharap sakanya. I pulled a pillow and rested my head on it. "But it was hard, Kai." i muttered. "Not being able to tell that you're inlove already... it's really hard."

Jongin glanced at me and smiled. "You survived." he said. "And i'm happy that you did."

"Yeah." i whispered. "I am happy, too."

Jongin started to do his assignment and i just watched him. I like watching him like this, during the moments when he's most carefree. Buti nalang nagawa ko na lahat ng dapat gawin. And so right now, i enjoy my time just staring at him.

I like his serious face the most. Because i can remember the very first time i saw him.

A small smile crawled on my face as i remembered something. "Kai." i called and he looked at me while raising both his brows. "Can you still remember what i told you at Taemin's diner?"

Jongin frowned for a few seconds then smirked. "The.. date?" he asked with a small laugh.

I nodded fast. "I know where to go." i said excitedly. "It's not far from here. Are we allowed to use our cars?"

Jongin nodded. "Yes. I have my car." then he frowned and looked at me curiously. "So... where are we going? A park? A diner? A new restaurant?"

I shook my head and grinned. "At the mall."

Nanlaki naman ang mga mata niya. "A mall?" he asked, clearly surprised. "I don't need any clothes, Kyungsoo. And besides, i don't like watching movies. I am also sure that YOU don't like shopping and walking around."

I scoffed. "Sino ba kasi nagsabing mamimili tayo?"

With that, the curiousity on Jongin's face increased. He leaned on his seat and looked at me seriously. "Then... what are we gonna do at the mall?" he asked and i almost laughed at his cuteness. He looks really adorable when he wants to know something.

"Secret." i whispered and sat on my bed. Inayos ko na yung higaan ko pati na din yung unan. I am about to lie down when Jongin is already going up my bed.

"Hey!" i shouted and pushed him back. "What do you think you're doing?!"

Jongin sat on my bed, ignoring me. "Come on. Tell me, Kyung." he begged. "You know i hate this! Nakakabitin ka naman eh." he even pouted lightly and i almost kissed him.

"I said it's a secret for now!" i said and rolled my eyes. "Sasabihin ko kapag aalis na tayo."

"You can't do that!" he objected. "I am your boyfriend and you should tell me! Why are we going to the mall?"

I scoffed and looked away. "I am not telling you anything." i said firmly. "Tanungin mo nalang ako ng kahit ano. Huwag lang yun." then i crossed my arms over my chest and looked seriously at him.

Jongin glared at me. "Well.." he started as he looked at me with that fearsome glare. "I have a question for you then."

I raised an eyebrow. "Okay. What is that?"

"Are you ticklish?" he smirked and wiggled his fingers. I gasped and threw him a pillow.

"NO YOU DON'T!" I shouted and i heard him laughing already. I looked behind me and nothing but the wall is waiting. I threw him another pillow and my eyes went wide as he started to come near me.

"Are you, Kyungsoo?" he grinned.

"KIM JONGIN! YOU BETTER STOP! RIGHT NOW!" I shouted but i tried hard not to laugh. "Kai!!! Don't you dare!"

Then he suddenly threw himself over me, his fingers tickling my sides. I squirmed and laughed trying to push him off but he's laughing so hard that he's gasping for air already.

"Aaaahhh!!!" i screamed between laughs. "Stop!!! I can't breathe!!!"

Jongin laughed and lied beside me, panting. I let out my last laughters and glanced at him. "You jerk!" i panted. "I thought... i thought i'm gonna die."

Jongin grinned and looked back at me. "I can't let that happen." he breathed, still smiling so wide.

I rolled my eyes then looked at him with a stupid smile plastered on my face. "I never knew i had laughed like that before." i grinned. "That was fun."

He took my hand that is lying beside me. "We can do it again." he laughed.

I threw him a deadly glare.

"Or not." he added with a grin.

I stared back at the ceiling and rested my head on his shoulder. "So... you really want to know why we're going to the mall?" i asked and glanced at him.

Jongin nodded. "I really do." he whispered.

"My mom has a boutique." i said and smiled wider. "We'll visit her. She'll love to meet you."
