I get back home to be greeted by Changmin’s arm. I didn’t push him away nor hug him back either. He smile through his bruised face which seems to hurt because he was smiling too widely.

“Sorry I didn’t come and pick you up”, he says pouting a little and I shook my head telling him that it was not a big deal.

“So how’s extra class with Kevin?”

There he go again. I roll my eyes and walk my way to my room but he held my hand and I sigh.

“Nothing! Its just a class Changmin. Why are you so worried whether I meet Kevin or not?”

“Because he’s your friend”

I look at him and he was not having any of those killer eyes in his. I sigh again and pull away my hand slowly as he follow me inside my room. He jump on my bed while I gather my clothes and towel to take a bath.

“Don’t you dare take a peek at me!”, I threaten knowing he have all the keys to the house. He widen his eyes and put both his hands in the air.

“I would never!”

He was so cute when he deny it that I laugh a little and went in. I took a bath for half an hour and change into my comfortable clothes and see him asleep in my bed.

I wanted to sleep and rest too but with him sleeping on my bed, I would never. I walk towards him and shook his body.

“Changmin go to your own room”

He open his eyes and smile at me before making a room in front of him and pat the space without saying any words.

I was tired and in no position to fight him so I just sleep next to him and he immediately hug me. And there goes me and breaking my promise in just a minute that I would never sleep next to him.

“Did you ever wanted him gone from your life?”

Juyeon’s voice keep replaying in my head. I wanted him to stop controlling me never once want him gone from my life. I slowly started to understand my own feelings.

Maybe all I want is an open relationship. A relationship where he don’t control me but instead we trust each other. I drift off to sleep knowing that I actually thought about having a normal relationship with him. Maybe I do like him, just maybe.

We get stares on the road as we are on our way to University. They stare because of Changmin who is wearing a sunglasses and face mask in the middle of summer because it is so damn hot and his mask looks like its suffocating him.

“At least lose the mask”, I told him quietly since he insisted on coming back to the class with his bruised face. He sigh and pull down his mask which shows a slight cut on the corner of his eyes and the dark bruise peek out from his sunglasses.

We enter the café since we didn’t eat breakfast at home and order some pastry and drinks. The owner look at us funnily and whisper to me, “Is that your boyfriend?”

I don’t know how to answer her but Changmin heard since he was standing next to me and fold his arms.

“Yes I am her boyfriend”, telling the old woman angrily he glare at her and I hit him in the arm telling him not to be rude.

I smile sheepishly at the owner and she whisper quieter this time, “he’s weird”

I snorted a laugh and replied, “I know”

Changmin look at us judgingly knowing we were talking about him and intertwine our hands after getting our order and pull us out. Sulking the whole time on the way which I find it cute.

I’m the weird one now aren’t I?
