Love Me Hate Me

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Baek's POV

I'm in my room on a Sunday afternoon. Tomorrow is the first day of school. I'll be a first year in high school. Pretty soon I will be in college. Hell yeah!

Time to celebrate!

You know that song 'Pocket Full Of Sunshine'? I love that song. Okay, I'm gonna play it.

There! Perfect!

This room is awesome by the way. I've already put some of my touches on it. Like the poster of Lee Jung Suk. My mom is okay with it. I love that guy! Wink*

And all the teddy bears I got from P'Kayden, my cousin, I displayed them all over the room. They're huge. It's like I have my own posse. Only, they're bears.

P'Kay is in second year of college now. He's taking industrial engineering and I'm going to enter the same department.

I wanted to be a doctor for my dad but I was too late for that. So I'm going to pursue my true passion-engineering! And Phana can't make me take medicine either. That jerk!

Oh, I love acting but that's like a sideline.

Oh! Chorus! Let's sing!

Take me away

A secret place 

Don't give a s**t! 

Take me away

Take me away

To better days

Take me away 

Oh baby, pleaseeeeee!

I got a pocket, 

got a pocket fu--

"What the hell?! Why did it sto--

"Those were not the right lyrics to that song." P'Ace just entered my room and stopped my holy music. He's wearing a black T-shirt and ripped jeans. And what's with the boots.

Damn! I hate his sexy!

"Um. What are you doing here?" He sat on my bed after grabbing a white teddy bear from the floor next to it.

"I'm here for my cuddles. What else." He's squeezing it! You bastard!

I grabbed my bear and glared at the sexy intruder. Oh yeah. He was gone for like two weeks.

After that morning when I said, 'I thought for sure you were gonna f**k me last night.' I ran out of my room laughing my ass off and down the stairs I went.

I was kind of nervous about what he might do so I made my escape. When I came back, he was gone. Now, here he is.

P'Ace stood up and looked around my room. He noticed a few changes. "Who the hell is this?" He pointed at the giant poster on my wall.

"Um...my future husband?" I murmured.

"Your what?!"

Okay, what's with the overreaction? My mother is okay with it, dillhole!

"I said, my future husband!” I half yelled back at him. His face became unreadable. His fists clenched, his knuckles are turning white. And he has tanned skin!

The next thing I knew the beautiful giant poster has been ripped. No!

"What the hell, P'!" Shia! His fingers are bleeding. I ran to find my first aid kit. It's here somewhere. s**t!

"Which one are you more worried about?" He asked me while standing behind, wiping his hands with the tissue paper he might have found on my desk.

"My boyfriend, of course!" There! I found the kit.

"Me?" P'Ace is pointing at himself as I opened the box. We both sat down on the bed.

"Huh? What, no. I'm talking about Jung Suk hyung." I began to clean the paper cuts on his fingers.

P'Ace suddenly pulled them away. "Hey! I'm not done yet!"

He got up. “I can do it myself." Then he headed for the door and left. Tsk. Ingrate!

At dinner, I glanced at my brother maybe once or twice. Okay, a lot. But he never looked back. Whatever.

'You will come running back to me, watch.'

Mom and dad talked about this and that. Only my mom commented on my brother's hands that were dressed. Of course he lied about what happened to them. Then dad asked me if I was excited for school the next day.

"Yup. I can't even wait to get to college." I said honestly, smiling at my lovely parents.

"How about you, Ace. Have you chosen the university you're going to next year?" His dad asked P'Ace. He is in senior high this year.

"I'm going to Aspen. Civil Engineering. The exams are in three months." He said with a poker face. Isn't he excited at all?

"Baek wants to be an engineer, too." My mom said.

"So, we will have two engineers one day, sweetheart." My stepdad tells my mom while smiling her way.

I glanced at my brother again. Nope. Not looking. Damn you, you cold hearted bastard!

***

After the family was done eating, I excused myself and headed for my room. I didn't see P'Ace because he finished first.

When I got to my room, the lights were off. I turned it on and walked into my closet. I grabbed some change of clothes and headed to take a bath. I will need a soak to relax my body for tomorrow.

After I was done, I put on my buttoned sleeping shirt and pajamas. I got out of the bathroom. When I stepped out, I immediately saw P'Ace reading a book by my bed. Is that my acting journal?

"Hey! That's a crime, you know." I grabbed the book from him and hid it in my drawer on my side table.

P'Ace is already wearing a white comfy t-shirt and pajamas, freshly showered too. "I was just trying to get to know you more." His eyes actually looked softer. He's calm. He patted the space next to him on my bed.

"Let's sleep, baby. We have a big day tomorrow." He pulled my hand gently to make me climb the bed from his side. I had to crawl on his body to get to my spot.

When I finally laid my back on the soft mattress, P'Ace suddenly hovered on top of me.

'I knew you would come running back.'

"Do you hate me, Baek?" What?  Where did that come from? "You've been playing with me this whole time." Ah, that. Well, he kinda did irritate me.

"I'm sorry I hit your head with the ball..." He pressed his forehead on mine. The apology is two weeks late, P'.

"Say something, baby. Anything." He sounds pleading?

"I hate you, P'Ace." Was what came out. Crap!

He raised his head. Looked me in the eyes. He smirked. Ugh. Jerk.

The next thing I know my lips are being devoured by my brother's mouth. f**k! It tastes good.

"You like me don't you, little brother." He said grinning after stopping the kiss. I want more!

"I hate you!" I hissed and pulled his head for another mouthful.

The kiss was soft at first. P'Ace is trying to teach me how to respond. He was my first. The kiss slowly became deeper. I think. Few moments later, I felt his tongue trying to enter my mouth. My lower lip was bit and I automatically gasped.

Before I realized what was happening, my tongue began to move with his. This a French kiss, right? Damn!  I feel so hot. I think I'm burning. Good kind of burning.

I didn't even realize I was moaning until I heard myself when P'Ace grabbed my butt from underneath me. I felt myself shiver from all the butterflies partying in my stomach.

He pulled from the kiss all of a sudden. What?

"Baby...I'll teach you more later. W-when you're ready. Um..I need to use your bathroom real quick." Then he left me.

What the frick?!
