SOPA: '00 Liners [NCT DREAM + SR17G]

Confession

At School
Lucy's POV
I was sitting at my desk, trying not to fall asleep until I suddenly heard someone run into the classroom and drop their bag next to me.

"Today's the day! I've been waiting two years for this!" Jeno exclaimed grinning at me.

I've never seen him so excited before... "What's up? Are you debuting or something?" I asked, before yawning.

"Nope, although that would he great. Jaemin's confessing to Hina today!" Jeno said excitedly.

Ah now I see why he's so happy...
"Omg really?? " I asked surprised.
He nodded and I couldn't help but smile.

As Jaena's best friends and number one shippers, Jeno and I proceeded to celebrate by dancing until we got some weird looks from the other students.

We decided to contain our excitement and sit down at our desks. "So when is he doing it?" I asked him.

"At lunch, in the library" He said.
"Why the library?" I asked.
"Jaemin said it's the only quiet place and it's away from other people" Jeno explained.

"Okay, but we have to sneak in there to watch" I said smirking.
"Of course, like I said, I've been waiting two years for this" Jeno said smirking back at me.

"Good, and at least I have something to keep me awake" I mumbled, resting my head on my hand.

"Why are you so tired anyway?" He asked.

"I have this thing called homework that I kinda have to do every night" I said sarcastically.

"Oh yeah... I forgot you have to do that" Jeno laughed.

"And you don't?" I asked him.

"Since I'm supposed to be training in my spare time, teachers are more relaxed with me" Jeno told me, which made me gasp.

"You're so lucky, I literally did like 5 essays over the weekend." I complained.

"Maybe you should become a trainee too" Jeno said.

"Me?! Like that's ever gonna happen" I started laughing, but when I saw Jeno's face I stopped. "Wait you were serious?"

"Yeah, you're pretty talented Lucy." He said, and I could tell he was being sincere.

"You're forgetting that I can't dance" I pointed out.

"That's what all the training is for!" He argued back.

"Okay, but I don't want to be an idol anyway" I said.

"Then what do you want to be?" He asked.

I couldn't think of anything to say. "I don't know, but being an idol doesn't seem right for me. I should just be realistic and be an accountant or something" I said.

Jeno gave me an 'are you being serious' look. "Ok but when you tell me you regret having such a boring life, I'll be here to say 'I told you so' alright?"

"Ok ok I'll think about it" I said sighing.

Lunch
Jaemin's POV
So many thoughts went through my head, my heart was beating twice as fast and I couldn't keep still.

You can do this Jaemin.

I was waiting in the library as I stared at my phone.

You: hi Hina, can you
meet me in the library?

Hina: ok I'll be
there in 5 mins

Longest 5 minutes of my life...

I was doing some last minute checks on my hair and my face, when I saw Hina walk through the door.

I quickly stood up, but knocked my chair down at the same time. Wow, why am I so clumsy today?

"Uh...h-hi Hina!!" I said way too awkwardly as I walked over to her.
"Err hi?" She replied giving me a weird look.
"Oh you better sit down" I said as I pulled out a chair for her and held her crutches as she sat down.

"Thanks, but why are we here?" She asked.

"Umm well you see..." I started off but couldn't find the right words to finish the sentence.
"What do I see?" Hina asked jokingly.
"I was wondering if- no that's not it. I wanted to know- no that's not it either..." I mumbled to myself.
"Just spit it out Jaemin" Hina said.

My face burned red as I avoided her eye contact. "Do you wanna go ice skating with me on Friday?" I finally managed to say.

"Huh? I mean it was nice of you to ask but I don't think I can, sorry. Maybe if you asked me in the future?" Hina said still unsure about what was happening.

Did she just reject me? I knew I shouldn't have trusted Jeno and Mark hyung. I'm so embarrassed.

"I knew it, you like more mature guys right? Someone who's not like me?" I mumbled.

"What are you talking about?" Hina asked me confused.

"I thought we liked each other so I wanted to ask you on a date" I said quietly.

"That was your confession??" Hina said surprised.
"Yeah, but it's ok. I understand if you just want to be friends." I said sadly.

"Wait, I wasn't rejecting you though." Hina explained.
"But you said you can't go out with me" I said confused.

"Yeah, I meant I physically can't go ice skating because of my ankle, pabo..." Hina said as she pointed to her crutches.

"Oh... but what about when you were talking about the future?" I asked.

"Yeah I meant in the future, when my ankle's healed" Hina said.

"So if you're not rejecting me then..." I trailed off.

"Then it means I'd like to go out with you pabo" Hina said shyly.

"Really?" I asked grinning.
"Yeah I like you too Jaemin" Hina said smiling back.

Suddenly we heard clapping and cheering from behind one of the bookcases.

Lucy's POV
"Congratulations! Jaena is finally official. The ship has sailed!" Jeno and I shouted as we all moved out of our hiding spot.

"Seriously? You had to bring everyone to watch?" Jaemin asked, raising his eyebrows at Jeno.

"It was a special moment for me, okay?" Jeno replied, pretending to wipe away his tears.

"Aww you guys are so cute though" I joined in.

"But seriously ice skating?" Donghyuck asked laughing.

"Hey, I panicked and couldn't think of anything else" Jaemin said.

"So where are you going to go on your date?" Koeun asked.

"I don't mind as long as I'm with Hina" Jaemin said, making her blush and the rest of us cringe.

Luckily for them, the bell went off so they managed to escape the rest of our teasing.
