3. Cocky
Previously:
Minho enters Taemin's Japanese class and is apparently a new student there now.
Taemin, Key and Jonghyun decide on eating Alfredo for lunch.
________
It ended up being Alfredo. I really wanted steak, but whatever. I ended up ordering an Alfredo with bits of bacon. That should be good.
"What if your family goes bankrupt, what will you do?"
"Yah, are you jinxing me right now?" I frown before slurping on the Alfredo.
Okay, so even though I like expensive stuff like steak and lobster, I still really enjoy normal people food.
I wasn't born into wealth.
"No, but just saying. You need to learn how to live normally too. Or it'll be hard for you if something happens." Key says while Jonghyun isn't paying any kind of attention to our conversation as he eats his life away.
"So would you sell all your clothes for survival?"
"Yah, clothes are my way of surviving. And I'm too gangsta not to find a way. Plus, we're talking about you not me right now."
I chuckle and shake my head. It was true. Although Key seemed feminine and like he couldn't live without his clothes, he knew how to deal with disadvantages. He could survive a whole year with only a nickel.
"Key. Even if something happens, I've saved up money OK? I'll be fine." I smile and take another fork of Alfredo.
I hear him sigh and pick at his plate.
"If you say so..."
For a while we eat in silence but Jonghyun finishes before us and soon starts entertaining us with tones of stupid stories he always tell us when we're at lunch. I mean I swear this guy never runs out of things to tell. Once he told us the story of how he almost slept with this woman (Key didn't like those Jonghyun stories) who ended up being one of his father's mistresses. What surprised us all was that the woman, even though super sexy and pretty, sold fish at the free market. Ew.
I laugh and then notice how Key stopped laughing normally and kept trying to glance at something behind me.
"Yah, Key what are you looking at?"
"Uh? Nothing. What?" he denies And looks at me as though confused.
Me and Jonghyun both look at each other and look behind us towards the direction. A male stood in front of another table, with a bright and genuine smile on his face. I only needed to see his profile to know who it was.
Tall figure.
Thick eye brows.
Dark hair.
Frog eyes.
White button-up.
Black apron and skinny jeans.
Ugh. Why was he everywhere today?
I turn around only to see key drooling (not literally but he seemed damn close). I look at Jonghyun who only chuckles. He snaps fingers in front of Key who snaps out of it.
"E-Eh."
"Dude you're drooling like a dog." Jonghyun chuckles.
"S-Sorry it's just...Choi Minho." he whispers the name and looks down at the Alfredo left on his plate shyly.
Me and Jonghyun look at each other and back at him.
"I knew I saw Amber near the cashier earlier.. Should've know if she was here that he would be here." he notes glancing there quickly and looking back at us.
I had seen a glance of Amber when I came in, but didn't pay no mind and just took a sit in the restaurant.
"What about him? You like him or something?"
"W-WHAT!? No WAY! I don't like him!" he exclaims.
The people near us turn around and look at Key. The place's soft music played in the background. Akdong Musician. Can't remember the song title though.
I try to hold back a chuckle and whisper for Key to quiet down. I can hear Jonghyun trying really hard not to laugh out loud.
"Oh my gosh, hope he didn't hear me. I'm so embarrassed, let me die." he says lowering his head and looking at me.
"So... you like him?" i ask slowly.
We knew Key liked guys. Since like, grade 9. Never actually remember him having a legit boyfriend. But his boy type, did describe frog eyes. I mean, Minho.
Key shakes his head.
"Then why the spazzing?" Jonghyun asks frowning.
"W-Well i did have a crush on him freshman year. But he seems to be straight and totally into Amber right now. His brother, a senior this year, is the one I actually like now. Kimbum, all sports star like Minho? They're both just hot. Like seriously."
I relax slightly as Key says he doesn't like Minho, but frown imagining another frog eyed guy out there.
Ew.
"The fact that you know all of this...Your name is also Kibum, why date another one named that?" Jonghyun asks once his controlled his need to laugh.
"Does it look like I gave birth to him and named him? Plus I can always change my name. And his name is Kimbum not Kibum." Key says the last part dreamily.
"Want his number?" I ask.
"What? What do yo- hey! Tae!"
I stand up and leave our booth. I hear Jonghyun say 'Oh my gosh is he really?' and Key call my name but i just keep walking towards the cashier where the frog eyed now stood with Amber across the counter from him.
"Hi." I smile interrupting Amber and Minho's conversation.
Amber smiles and tells me a small "What's up?" which I nod too returning a quiet 'Hi'.
Minho just raises an eyebrow and looks at me.
"How may I help you?" he asks seeming un-phased by my smile. Or me in general. Seriously this guy is so cocky.
"I want a banana milkshake... please."
I smile staring at Minho who taps something in the cashing machine.
"..and your brother's number."
He freezes, frowns, and looks at me.
"Excuse me?"
"My friend over there," I turn around and point at Key who's looking as nervous as ever trying to act as oblivious as possible.
"He likes your brother or whatever. Think you could share his number?"
Minho looks at Key and back at me. Then he looks at Amber, who I see through the corner of my eye, smirking.
"I have to go to the loo, be right back babe!" Amber sings and goes away.
Babe. Ew.
Minho smiles and nods, then looks back at me.
I look at her walk away. Was this his style?
"I'll have to ask him I guess. How did he know he was even-"
I turn my head back to him and grin.
"Gaydar. That's what it's called."
Minho chuckles and shakes his head.
"The milkshake, to go or to stay?"
I blink. Is he just going to ignore me?
"It goes with the bill for that table I just pointed at."
He looks at me and nods.
He walks to the milkshake machine and makes my delicious drink, completely concentrating on it.
"Whipped cream?" he asks turning his head to me, but body still facing the machine.
I nod and cannot help but lick my lips as I see him perfectly put the whipped cream on my milkshake.
"Thanks... So will you ask?" I smile when he hands me my drink.
He nods and smiles.
"No biggie."
"Cool. Thanks." i nod and grin.
"Need something else?" he asks looking amused.
"N-No. But when or how will you give us the number if he accepts?"
He shrugs.
"I'll find you and give it to you. Or if I see Key, I'll just give it to him."
"But what if we don't see each other?"
"Me and Key don't share classes but.. Me and you share a class, Japanese remember?"
What if i decide not to go to class and Key doesn't either? I mean this guy should know I barely attend class. Unless it's dance class.
He raises an eyebrow and brings his face closer to me. I blink quickly looking into his brown eyes.
"Is this a way for you to get closer to me, Lee Taemin?"
I'm slightly taken aback. Who does this guy think he is?
I smirk and shake my head. "Nope. Got cuter girls to court sweetie." i take a sip off my milkshake.
He grins and winks.
"But not cuter boys."
I have to hold back from chocking. I cough softly and frown at him. Talk about witty.
"I'm just kidding Mr.Lee Taemin. Don't get all creeped out. No 'stranger alert' bell needs to be rung."
"I'm not creeped out.. don't think you should talk like that when you have a girlfriend. She might dump you for flirting with a guy." I clear my throat feeling very embarrassed.
"You mean.. "
He chuckles and gets closer to my ear, which doesn't help how embarrassed I feel, and whispers in my ear very softly.
"It's okay, because I like guys and my little llama Amber is as straight as a toothpick."
___________
I unlock the door and enter the house. The single pair of shoes and my house slippers installed in front of the door indicated that my dad was still on a business trip and my mom probably on one too, or with him. I sigh a little bit relieved I won't have to hear their blabbering and take off my shoes to put on my house slippers. They did say it was a whole month thing. After placing my shoes nicely next to the other female pair I head to my bed room while whistling a song.
"Tae?" I hear as soon as I arrive in front of my bedroom door.
I open the door only to be met with Maki sitting on my bed. Well, our bed.
"Hey Makise." I smile.
"You..." she sits up and pouts.
"How could you just run off and leave me with your parents like that?"
I chuckle and jump on the bed, stomach first.
"I'm sorry Maki. Just needed an escape."
"You always just need an escape. Who's house did you sleep at this time? I called Jonghyun and Key. They both sounded weird."
I chuckle. I'm not sure if Maki actually had any feelings towards me, but i do admit that i liked the fact that she was worried about me.
"Neither. Jongin's" i lie, turning my head to the side so I can see her. Kai and i hadn't talked in a while. But she didn't have to know that. We should though. I miss my look-alike friend.
She nods suspicion showing a bit in her eyes.
"So what'd you do while i was gone?" I say trying to change the subject.
"Nothing. Church by myself. Your parents came and literally went back the same day. They said they were busy and that they had to get ready for the business trip anyways. Then I went out a bit. Places are closed so didn't' have much to do." she shrugs.
"Aww. I'm sorry. Don't worry I'll make it up to you okay babe."
I watch as she nods doubtfully. I grin and grab her arm dragging her down with me so we both lay on the bed. I use my elbow to lift my head up a bit so I can look down at her.
"Don't be mad, OK?" I whisper.
She shyly looks up at me and nods.
"A-Are you hungry?"
I look down at her and brush her shoulder length raven hair.
"Just a little bit." I smile before bringing my lips to her's slowly.
________
I sit up and look at Maki sleeping next to me. Her breathing is soft and constant. I sigh and get out of bed grabbing my pajama pants and a random shirt. I carefully and quietly head out the door and head to the garage.
Ah. My Baby.
Thank God Key had his own car which enabled us to go grab gas, or if not, my poor baby would've been parked on that random street for i don't know how long. I open the door and get in getting comfortable. I turn on the heat and the radio lowly. OK by 4Men fills my car.
"It's okay, because I'm gay and my little llama Amber is straight." his voice echoes in my head.
Lies.
Why would he tell me that anyways. Ugh.
Him gay? Her straight? And what am i, ugly? Ha! I mean who are you kidding Mr.Choi Minho? I bet he likes to frickle frackle with girls every night.
I bite my lip and get my phone out of my pocket. I go to my contacts and look at a certain name.
'Choi Minho.'
"Alright give me your phone." he had smiled softly, seeming to think the other would comply, which in the end, he did.
After his previous confession of him being gay, my mind honestly went blank. I take out my phone unconsciously and hand it to him.
"Wh-What are you doing?"
He chuckles and picks up my phone unlocking it.
"Mm..you don't even have a password. Me either." he chuckles again.
I could only watch him press buttons on my phone. I hear an app open and close. Then he hands me back the phone with a smile.
"There. Now you have my phone number. So if you want to remind me go right ahead."
I sigh for the 100th time today and sink in my sit, throwing my phone in the passenger seat. I think I need to eat something, my stomach is calling to me. But I can't help but think, if Key starts going out with the frog-eye's brother, does that mean he'll hang out with us, meaning we'll be together most of the time?
Ugh. I feel a headache building up. I can't believe how sassy the guy is seriously. His one of those guys who look nice and genuine but secretly break people's hearts.
Right.
Who am I to speak.
I relax a bit and feel my eyes getting heavy. Darkness than fills the car and 4Men mutes away as the warmth brings me to sleep.
