The Flower Boy

I knock hesitantly, wondering why i’m here and blaming Seokjin for this all. After a few seconds, the door opens and it’s Seokjin, smiling at me. I cross my arms, hoping he doesn’t think i’m here cause I want to be. “You actually came…” He said surprised, still smiling at me.
“You think i’d risk my school grades for you?”
“Well other girls would.” At this I sigh and rolled my eyes, leaning into one hip, wondering when he’d finally let me in. As if he understood, he stepped back and gestured into his house. I stepped in slowly and cautiously, looking around the entrance hallway. “Who is it Seokjin-ah?” I hear a voice approaching from another room. A smiling woman appears from around the corner. Immediately I meet her eyes and see they are like Seokjin’s. I bow while saying, “Hello.” As much as I hate Seokjin, respect comes first.
“Ooh a girl! Seokjin has never brought a girl over before!” His mother said happily looking at me. Before I can make out what she meant Seokjin appears at my side holding onto my arm softly.
“Okay Mum, well we’re going to be in my room okay?” Seokjin says guiding my arm along behind him, dragging me further into the house.

After a blur of the house, we make it into his room, where he closes the door after I enter the room. As I look around his room is actually kinda plain. Like he’d just moved in or something, with only a few possessions here and there. “Sorry about my mother. She’s a bit weird sometimes,” Seokjin says falling onto his bed.
“Be glad she’s here,” I say walking over to the seat next to his desk. "You’d probably be helpless without her,” I say under my breath.
“Huh?”
“Nothing… we should start our project,” I say with a little sigh bringing papers out of my bag. As I sort them out I see Seokjin out of the corner of my eye sitting himself into the seat next to me. Before I know it he’s cupping his head with his hands, and staring at me.
“Can you organise the utensils and these chemicals-,” I say looking at the conditions of the project.
“You know Wonah, it’s just me here. You can act normal now.” I slowly turn to my head to look at him, seeing him smiling softly at me. Already my temper is being tested. He’s beginning his ‘player’ stuff again, making me dislike him even more.
“I am acting normal…” I say looking back at the list in front of me on the desk. A long silence follows, as my temper gets tested more. “So can you organise these things or not?” I say sighing as I look back at him again.
“You have a really nice mark here on your face, did you know? It’s really pretty,” he touches my cheek where a small mole lies. Our eyes meet and I move away instinctively when I feel his hand touch me. Although I do notice that his hands are surprisingly warm.
‘You know what just get the utensils, i’ll get the rest.”
“What’s wrong with you?” My temper grows it seems like every time he talks.
“What’s wrong with you?!” I set my pen down loudly on the desk and raise my voice at him slightly.
“I called you pretty…”
“So…?!
“Arn’t you flattered? Because it’s me?” I close my eyes slowly, standing up. I loudly sigh, letting him know how freaking annoying he’s being right now.
“I need to go to the bathroom. Where is it?” I say monotoned, opening my eyes again. This afternoon is going to feel like forever.

“You can do this Wonah. It’s only a boy. How complicated can he get?” I say to my reflection. I look myself deep in the eyes, trying to convince myself to not go stomping out Seokjin’s house furiously. As i’ve felt the anger subside, I open the door out of the bathroom. As I take my first step I see a slightly smaller girl in front of me, and we almost collide. “Oh, i’m sorry.” She says stepping back a bit.
“No, i’m sorry. This isn’t even my house,” I say walking out the door. She’s quite short… she must be pretty young. Around 10?
“Hey, you’re Oppa’s Chemistry partner right?” She says shyly fumbling with her hands.
“Umm, yeah that’s me."
“Can I ask you a favour?”
“A favour?”
“My brother has never brought a girl over before… or for that fact, had a girlfriend. Please treat him nicely,” she confesses before she escapes into the bathroom. Leaving me confused and bewildered. What did she just say? Seokjin hasn’t had a girlfriend? That player? No way...
