the princess and the pauper
"you know, if you were planning to fuck up the rest of my night, you could've gotten me drunk first," she scoffed at him. “why did i say yes to this again? for all i know, you could be kidnapping me right now or something, ” she tugged at his harsh grip. indeed, why did she agree to this? part of it was probably because she looked at him as a younger brother--or maybe it was because she viewed him as a malignant tumor that she just couldn’t rid herself of no matter how hard she tried. either way, she knew that she was stuck with him whether she liked it or not.
his persistence was admirable, and his effort was beyond compare. this boy could get jihye to rob a bank with him, and take the blame for it. he always played the i’m-practically-your-little-brother card constantly, and shit, jihye was a sucker for his charisma as much as she’d hate to admit it.
“hey, you mind telling me what you’re trying to find? i swear to fucking god. i'm not in the mood to go on an adventure with you at one in the morning. do you think you’re special, ten? knocking at my door at midnight, eating my food like you own the place--wait, how’d you get in? holy shit, did you spy on some baek ho girl and get caught? are you some sort of pervert?” she began scolding him for a non-existent crime that he didn’t commit.
she’s not gonna lie; she’s never had a dull moment with this idiot. every single thing that they’ve done together was fun, but of course, her ego was too big for her to admit this. he knew she valued their friendship (much more than she valued her friendship with anyone else), but didn’t mention this at all. she appreciated him for that. she knew that he was going to do something incredibly stupid, but she followed him anyway--which probably meant that she was the idiot here. he probably knew that too, but kept silent about it.
he had taken her on so many adventures around the school, and they were almost caught too many times for jihye to remember. she should know better by now. if ten knocks at your door after curfew, you’re supposed to ignore it because you know that boy is up to trouble. if you answer it, you’re supposed to tell him to go away--but no, she lets him in, allows him to raid her fridge, and drag her outside for some type of scavenger hunt.
“i’m way too sleepy to be dealing with your annoying ass. i don’t wanna end up in prison for voluntary manslaughter (how ironic.),” the two make their way down the dorm, disdain is obvious in her furrowed brows.
after ten minutes of jihye nagging and tugging at ten’s strong grip on her wrist, they soon made it into the hallway of the classes held for the second years. “shit, ten, are you going to steal a project or something? why are we here?” she questioned the ‘malignant tumor.’
