the atmosphere changed in a quick two seconds.

joohyuk's hands landed softly on my shoulders, him stepping forward and his face tilting to the side and leaning in closer to mine.

his narrowed eyes met my lips. and that's when i knew exactly what he was about to do.

my heart pounded in my chest, and unconsciously, my eyes fluttered closed, and i awaited the contact. the move was so sudden, but i didn't have time to think much about it.

i felt the slight touch of his soft lips before-

"nam joohyuk your irresponsibility will be the end of oUr tE-"

i jolted and joohyuk immediately jumped back about a whole meter or two.

i could feel the heat rushing up my face or two reasons: one being that we nearly just kissed, and two being that we got caught in the act.

the man, who was somewhat dressed like a lifeguard, wore a shocked expression. the room grew quiet in immense awkwardness and i swear i wanted to bury my own grave right then and there.

i grimaced and cursed at myself, until i saw something even scarier.

i saw coach han standing behind him with an even more shocked, and half furious, facial expression.

"you!" the man i assumed was joohyuk's coach commanded at him. "come with me. i need to teach you a lesson." he walked over and kicked joohyuk in the butt, making him walk forward.

joohyuk turned around and made a sobbing-face at me, but i couldn't help but laugh. but then i realized i wasn't in a place to laugh right now because i was in deep shit myself.

grimacing, i slowly turned to face coach han.

"ROH HYEONA YOU BETTER COME WITH ME THIS INSTANT!"

"i will not waste practice time horsing around with my boyfriend ever again." i said, whimpering at how sore my arms were from carrying a pole. a voLLeYbaLL nEt pOle, to be exact.

"i will not waste practice time horsing around with my boyfriend ever again." i repeated this one sentence 48 times already. it was so embarrassing because my teammates were watching me in amusement and giggling at me. god i moment i'm finished i'm going to kick all of their asses-

"AGAIN!"

"i will not waste practice time horsing around with my boyfriend again." i said, my face blushing furiously once again.

"i will not waste practice time horsing around with my boyfriend again." i said for the 50th time, finally letting go of the pole and slumping onto the ground. god it was so embarrassing, saying things that weren't even true.

"just...for your information...nam joohyuk...is not my boyfriend...and...we didn't...do, anything." i panted heavily. "so any of you dare to start rumors and i'll beat all of your asses-"

"STOP TALKING LIKE THAT BEFORE I MAKE YOU DO 50 MORE." coach han yelled.

i bowed 90 degrees. "i'm sorry!"

"i will not continue acting irresponsibly and ditch practice for my girlfriend."

"i will not continue acting irresponsibly and ditch practice for my girlfriend."

"i will not continue acting irresponsibly and ditch practice for my girlfriend."

i literally said this one sentence 75 FUCKING TIMES already. i already knew there were going to be rumors the moment i stepped out of this building. taekwon's big ass mouth probably posted it on all of his social media accounts for everyone to see by now.

i said it one more time and did one last squat jump, and then collapsed onto the bench. my legs were so sore, but my pride was even more sore.

i had nearly kissed roh hyeona. am i crazy?? i must be. what has she done to me??

i pouted and crossed my arms. "but the moment was going to be perfect too-"

"what moment would've been perfect?" taekwon asked nosily.

"nothing-"

"what moment would've been perfect? your almost-kiss with that volleyball girl before i barged in on you two?" coach jung suddenly interrupted.

"COACH JUNG!!!"
