Sunghoon's POV

I'M SO BOOOOOORED UGHHHH

I've been staring at my ceiling for the longest time not knowing what to do. Yeji's getting ready to go over to play games with Jay, my parents are at work and I'm here all alone in the house with nothing to do

Let's see what y/n is doing... I stood up and walked over to my window peeking over her room. Is she crying?! I was about to open my window but I don't think I should intervene. She just kept crying and crying on Jay's shoulder and he was just there comforting her. I hate seeing her cry, seeing y/n cry makes me wanna cry too but I don't even know what she's crying about. Suddenly Jay stood up and he looked really angry but y/n pulled him back down and they talked for a while and it looked like y/n felt better.

What's wrong with her? Should I come over? No she'll think I'm snooping around, and the fact that she's not reaching out to me means she doesn't want me to know, but why? I don't want her to keep anything from me, is she scared I'm gonna judge her? She stood up changed into some clothes and picked up her skates (the ones I gave her) and rushed out. I grabbed my jacket, wore my shoes and rushed out of the house secretly following her.

The ice rink? What is she doing here? She entered the building and I followed quietly behind her. Mr.Choi was there and he opened the place. She wore her skates and got on the ice

Y/N's POV

I pushed myself across the ice and glided to what I felt like. I moved backwards to the sides turned to whichever direction I wanted. The cold breeze against my face, the smooth ice helping me move across one place to another felt like I was in a dream. I stretched open my arms and closed my eyes just feeling the moment. My eyes became watery remembering the names they always call me, the things they do to me. I wiped my tear and did a turn while bending on the ground releasing all my stress. I got up and moved around the rink trying to distract myself from all these worries. I should be mad at Sunghoon saying he's the reason because of this but, he didn't do anything. He can't help that girls like him, he can't help but to look like a curious person to talk to. I smiled knowing that out of all those girls he chose to be comfortable with me. My heart started beating fast with the thought of Sunghoon. This has been happening a lot lately. I held my chest feeling my heart beat faster. I wonder if this means what I think it means. I wiped my tears that continued to fall and the longer I stayed a smile started creeping onto my face.

Sunghoon's POV

She moved across the ice but not in a planned routine way, it looked like she was just doing her own kind of thing. She stretched open her arms closing her eyes while moving around in the middle. You can see the calmness on her face and you could just tell she loved what she was doing. I didn't notice but a smile crept onto my face. She wiped her tears that were streaming down her face and did a turn, but this turn didn't look like a graceful elegant turn. It looked aggressive and angry, is she stressed or something and she's not telling me? She continued to glide across the rink doing her thing but she was continuously crying but after a while a smile went onto her face.

I smiled seeing her relaxed enjoying herself. She stopped for a while and held onto her chest. I didn't know what that meant but I couldn't stop staring at her. She looked so beautiful on the ice. She looked like a princess... an ice princess

I gulped and held onto my chest as I started feeling my heart beat increase. My head started turning dizzy and my heart started beating fast that I could hear it in my head and in my ears. I don't know what I was trying to do but I held onto my chest hoping to calm down my heart but of course there was no point. Why's my heart beating so fast? I suddenly  remembered what Jay said and it increased even more. No... do I... like y/n?

I thought about it and as I looked at y/n smiling while enjoying herself on the ice, I felt calm as well. When I see her happy I feel happy when I see her sad I feel sad and when I see her calm on the ice it makes me calm as well. Y/n stopped and headed for the exit of the rink and removed her skates. I quickly hid somewhere and as she was fixing her stuff Mr.Choi suddenly came up to me

Mr.Choi: "you alright there son?" I quietly gasped as I turn around to see him behind me

Sunghoon: "M-Mr. Ch-Choi! I wasn't- I uhh"

Mr.Choi: "look over there" he pointed towards y/n and she was just putting on her skates wiping a tear. Is she crying again? "Now that's a girl that needs someone to comfort her" I look up at him and frowned

Sunghoon: "but sir, she would've told me if she wanted my comfort, she said she felt like being alone but I saw her with her brother. I mean I know her brother right? That's normal and I'm just a friend but, y/n and I are inseparable. We tell each other everything. I guess I'm just hurt she didn't wanna tell me what's wrong with her this time" after I said that I then heard Mr.Choi chuckle, I look up at him confused

Mr.Choi: "my dear, I think you may have a crush on y/n" I widened my eyes

Sunghoon: "oh, no Mr.Choi you've got it wrong. Y/n is my bestfriend and I just care for her" He smiled

Mr.Choi: "I've seen you guys since you were kids, I know you're not the type of kid to interact with other and to talk but you opened up to her when you guys met and you even showed her your ice skating and got her into it"

Sunghoon: "but sir, I don't think that means anything"

Mr.Choi: "well I've seen girls come over to you here in the ice rink and you'd always ignore them and go right back to y/n. And there are girls who keep trying to talk to you for months but you never gave them a chance" I stayed quiet and looked down realizing everything he's saying "and everytime I see you guys practice, I can see a connection I've seen before" I look up at him

Sunghoon: "where?" He chuckled and smiled warmly

Mr.Choi: "with my wife, we were married for 62 years" he sadly smiled

Sunghoon: "why 'were'?"

Mr.Choi: "she- she passed"

Sunghoon: "I'm sorry" I look down feeling bad for even asking

Mr.Choi: "it's ok dear, these things happen. And anyway it makes me happy seeing the same spark my wife and I had with you and y/n" he patted my shoulder leaving me

I see y/n getting up and I quickly hide as she exited the building thanking Mr.Choi. I stood up and looked back at him and he nodded. I sighed walking out of the ice rink looking for y/n
