Summary: The phone call
Note: This is written from Hyukjae’s point of view.
When I woke up the next day, my heart still hurt, and I didn’t want to get out of bed. Scratch that, I wasn’t going to get out of bed, screw school, what was the point. Unfortunately Sungmin didn’t share my point of view on school.
“Hyukie, what are you still doing in bed? You have to get ready for school.” Sungmin said
“I’m not going to school” I said monotone.
“EH. Are you sick?” he asked worried.
I paused for a minute to think about it, yes I was sick, love sick, so I answer “Yes.”
“Do you have a fever? Do you need to go to the doctor? I can call Leetuek and Yesung and we can take care of you” Sungmin asked.
“No, it’s not that kind of sickness, I’m suffering from a broken heart” I answer.
“What?” Sungmin asks shocked. Then silence filled the room, and I thought maybe Sungmin had left, that was until he spoke again “The date didn’t go so well” he asked.
“Ha” I said, “not going so well would have been an improvement, he said he never wanted to see me again” voicing it out loud almost brought me to tears.
“I’m sorry Hyukie” Sungmin said “but there are others out there, you just need to find the right one.”
“HE was the right one, he’s the only one”
“Hyuk I don’t think…” and I cut him off because I knew what he was going to say “you just met him, how can you know he’s the one” or something along those lines, and I didn’t need to hear it.
“He’s my soul mate” I say with absolute resolve. Lee Donghae was my soul mate, my one and only, my forever; even if it only lasted 1 date, there would never be anyone else.
Then there was another long silence, and then Sungmin said “Hyukjae I think you need to go to school, you can’t waste your life over some guy” he wasn’t SOME guy, he was THE guy.
“I will tomorrow Min, tomorrow, but for today I have to grieve” I say, and I meant it, tomorrow I would try to move on, but today, today I had to mourn for a great loss.
There was a pause, and I know Sungmin was thinking it over “Okay” he said “do you need anything?”
“No. I just need to be alone” I replied.
“Okay. But if you need ANYTHING just call me, or Leetuek, or even Yesung” Sungmin said as he was leaving, and before he shut my door he said “I know it hurts now Hyuk, but I promise it will get better” and with that he left, and the room got quiet. I was alone; I had nothing, so I closed my eyes and went to sleep, where no dreams reached me, only blackness.
Ring
I was startled awake.
Ring
I look at the clock, 5:30 PM, I was asleep all day.
Ring
I grab my phone; it was probably Leetuek or Sungmin checking on me.
Ring
Unknown Caller. Should I answer? My heart was beating really fast when I pushed the talk button.
“Hello?” I ask the person on the other line.
“……” silence on the other end, and I’m about to hang up.
“Okay, well I’m hanging up” I say.
“Wait” I know that voice “please don’t I…I need to talk to you.”
“Donghae?” could it really be him, or is this just a dream?
“Yeah, it’s me” Donghae says.
“What…what do you want?” and it comes out harsher than I intended.
“…..” crap, why did I say it like that, he’s probably hung up.
“Donghae?” I test.
“Yes…I…Umm…I…I just wanted to know…if you…if you wanted to go on a date with me?” He mumbles than rushes the last part.
“What?” I ask, because I’m really not sure if I heard him right.
“Would you go out with me?” he says in a small voice.
“I…”
“Never mind, this was stupid of me, I shouldn’t have called you, bye Hyukjae” he cuts me off then hangs up the phone.
“Wait” I say, but it’s too late, all I hear as a reply is the dial tone.
Did he really just ask me out?
I think I sat there in a trance for 5 minutes before it hit me “OMG he asked me out” I yell out.
“What am I doing? I have to call him” I scream at myself and reach for my phone to dial his number when my door bangs open.
“Hyukie, what’s wrong are you okay? Why were you screaming?” a frantic Leetuek says, followed by an equally worried Sungmin; there was no Yesung, but we all know where he is, Ryeowook.
“Are you kidding me? I’ve never been happier. He asked me out, he actually asked ME out” I scream while standing on my bed, hands raised in the air like a mad man.
“Who asked you out?” a confused Leetuek asks.
“Donghae” I say “But he hung up before I could answer” I pout “oh god. I have to call him back. GET OUT” I scream.
After Leetuek and Sungmin leave, I grab my phone, sit on my bead and dial your number.
RING
OMG. OMG. OMG.
RING
This is it, a date with Donghae. YES.
RING
He’s certainly taking his time to answer.
RING
ANSWER THE PHONE.
RING
“Hello” Donghae answer quietly.
“YES I WILL GO OUT WITH YOU” I scream into the phone. Yeah, way to keep your cool Hyukjae.
“What?” Donghae asks, he was probably startled by my crazy outburst, but I’m just too excited.
“Yes. I would love to go out with you” I say calmer.
“REALLY?” Now it’s Donghae who is screaming into the phone, and I smile “I mean, really” he says quieter.
“Yes, of course. When and where would we be having this date” I giggle.
“Tomorrow? After school?” he asks.
“Sounds perfect, where are we going?” I ask, and I’m super excited.
“It’s a surprise; I’ll meet you at the university after I get out of school”
“Okay, I’ll be waiting for you” I say.
“Okay. Bye Hyukjae, see you tomorrow”
“Bye Donghae” and I hang up the phone “YEEEESSSS” I yell, but Leetuek and Sungmin don’t come this time, they probably figured it went well.
That night I was almost too excited to sleep, and when I fell asleep it was passed midnight.
That night I fell asleep and dreamed we were back in that field, the one with the tree, and just like before you were standing under it. Only this time when I went to you, you didn’t disappear. When I reached you, you were smiling that smile that I fell for with those eyes I love, but you looked different, older.
“Hey” I say
“Hey” you reply, it was different, the tingle was there but it wasn’t the same, it wasn’t like when I was near you in reality. But I brushed it off, thinking that having you in reality would always be better than in my dreams.
“Why did you decide to ask me out?” I asked, I was curious, yes I realize this is a dream, and the answer would probably just be my mind coming up with something crazy, but I still wanted to know.
“I had a dream” came your answer, and like that you were gone; but it didn’t bother me, for some reason, just being under that tree, with the knowledge that tomorrow I would meet you, was enough.
I laid back and looked up at the sky, thinking about the way you smiled and the way your eyes would light up with such innocents. And there I stayed until I heard the BEEP of my alarm clock, waking me from my dream, with a smile on my face.
