《MY Sweet Interlude》Part 51 - Partners

Aliya suddenly felt like she wanted to be sick. How long had he been there, did he hear what she said? She asks herself.
"I uh, forgot to ask Aliya something." He replies as he walks closer to them.
"Oh ok, ask away." Nari said lightly but keeping her ground in front of Aliya not wanting to leave her.
There was an awkward silence since Yoongi obviously had no intentions of speaking until Nari leaves. Aliya reached out and touched Nari's arm and gives her a reassuring smile.
"We'll talk again later." She tells her. When her friend left, she gave a brief glance at Yoongi before facing the view from the balcony. She fiddles with her fingers as she feels her anxiety building up.
Yoongi clears his throat. "Did I interrupt something?"
Aliya's face is burning at the thought of what she said before he appeared, but she shakes her head. "No, not really. So, what is it you forgot to ask me?" She tries to change the subject immediately.
Yoongi leans his back on the railings so he is facing the opposite direction from Aliya, and crossed his arm in front of him. "Your room preference for the lake house. Color, design, etc."
All her hopes starts crashing. "Honestly, I just want a room that'll make me feel relaxed and have that vacation vibe. Nothing fancy."
He nods his head. "I think I get what you mean." He clears his throat before asking. "You seem to be upset earlier. Is there anything bothering you?"
You. She wanted to say. She wanted to lie very bad but she couldn't. "Yeah, but it's not that important, just don't think about it." She paused before asking. "How are you?"
"I'm good, busy with work I got to have this break. How are you?" It's quite an awkward conversation fot the two of them.
"Mom got married, she's happier now."
"But I'm not asking about your mom, I'm asking about you."
Aliya turns her head and didn't expect him to be looking at her. She stares into his eyes and she just wants to bawl, why does she have to love the wrong men? She wanted to tell him how she feels but she can't, what he has with that girl isn't a casual relationship like what she had with him. What they have is a real serious relationship. He must really love her. She turns her head away from him but to her horror, tears fell from her eyes as she did.
Yoongi sees it and he moves closer to her reaching out to wipe her tears. Aliya shakes her head and steps back from him. "I'm fine, I'm sorry, I just can't help it."
He has a deep scowl on his forehead. "Why?" He lifts her chin up so he could see her face.
"There you are. Time to make the toast guys, I've been looking all over for you." Jin enters with a glass filled with champagne. He looks at the two before noticing Aliya's tears. "Are you two fighting? Did you do this to her?" He asks Yoongi.

"No he didn't." Aliya answers wiping her tears with her hands. Jin offers her his handkerchief which she takes with a smile. "I'm just, I'm just being weird.It's not important anymore."
Jin looks at her again his brows connecting as he frowns. He placed an arm around her before offering her a sip from his glass. "You might need to calm yourself a bit before we get in. The guys will not like to see you like this." He said.
Aliya drinks from his glass then leans towards Jin, taking comfort in the warm embrace her friend gives her. "Thank you." She tells him.
"You're welcome. Now take a deep breath and let's all get inside to make that toast ok?" Jin said quietly.
Jin and Aliya walks ahead while Yoongi follows behind them his gaze not wavering over his friend's arms that is wrapped around Aliya's shoulders.
As soon as the toast was made by Namjoon, the drinking began. Taehyung noticed Jin's arm which didn't leave Aliya's shoulders so he pulls the other man aside and had a talk with him. When they came back, he still looks brooding but didn't say anything more.
Aliya didn't make a big deal out of it. She is used to this with her friends. Jin just never have been touchy since his relationship with Miya, but they were close before that. She finds herself filling her glass more of the sparkling wine. It's making her bubbly by the minute. When Jin finally leaves her, she walks towards Nari.
"Did you think he heard me?" She asks.
"I honestly don't know. What did he ask you out there."
Aliya shrugs with a laugh that is way too much than she wanted to. Damn the alcohol. "About my room in the lake house."
"Are you serious? He doesn't want to ask that in front of me?" Nari asks and that made Aliya laugh over the ridiculousness of it all.
"Are you drunk Aliya?" Namjoon tells her as he approached them.
Nari whispers something to him and when she's done, his eyes went wide as he shifts his gaze at her. "Holy shit, sorry, Aliya did he know you were there?"
"Of course not. That would've wrecked their moment together. They were really going at it you know." She said with a giggle.
"That's just not right." Namjoon said shaking his head.
"Well, it's not right for me to be there either without letting him know first so it's my fault." She takes another sip of her drink before continuing. "So, why didn't he bring her here so that everyone can meet her?"
He shakes his head as if he didn't want to answer her question. But he gets a look from his fiancee that got him talking. "She's with her family. He didn't want everyone to know about her yet."
"But I know, you know, Nari knows." Aliya said before taking another drink from her glass.
Taehyung approaches her. "How many glasses have you had?"
Aliya shrugs in reply. He takes the glass she is holding. "Enough alcohol. That is what got you into trouble in the first place." He tells her before walking away. She didn't get it at first but she realized later on that he's talking about what happened in his wedding with Yoongi. She pouts in response, she doesn't regret it, it gave her bliss until she feels it's effect later on. It's like being drunk, drinking is so much fun until you wake up the next day with a hang over. She turns her head and sees Yoongi watching her, she holds his gaze for a short moment before looking away. Why does he have to do that? Maybe he did hear what she said. It's embarrassing but so what? He'll be here just for a few days and then he's going back with his 'babe'.

Taehyung comes back and hands her a glass of cold water, she wrinkles her nose at it and tries to push it away but he keeps on pushing it to her until it's in front of her lips. She takes a sip then made a face.
"Eeww." She said.
"Water is all you'll be drinking from this time on." Her bestfriend tells her. "What were you guys talking about anyway?" He looks at Namjoon then at Nari.
"We were talking about their wedding." Aliya answers. "After you and Jia, they're next so, who do you think will follow after?"
"I don't know, no one's in a really serious relationship except for Hobi, but their relationship is still new." Taehyung replies.
"Ha, that's what you think." Aliya tells him before realizing her mistake so she bites her lips and shrinks back from the chair.
"What does that mean? Is there something I don't know?" He turns to Aliya who shakes her head. "You're not in a serious relationship are you?"
Aliya can't help laughing in reply. "That's a funny joke."
"Joke? Do you guys need me to tell a joke?"Jin asks as he sits at the empty space next to Aliya.
"Not exactly." Namjoon tells him that made the other man laugh.
Jin reaches out and pulls Aliya's hair back from her face. "You've had enough alcohol haven't you?"
She gives him a naughty smile. "Nope." She reaches out to take his glass and drinks the entire content which made her bestfriend cluck his tongue at her.
Jia comes to join them "Let her be honey." She said winking at Aliya who smiles at her mouthing "thank you".
When their conversation started, they started talking about Namjoon and Nari's wedding, for real this time. Listening about it sounds tiring already, Aliya wonders how would it be like if you're the person who is getting married. Must be stressful. Good thing she isn't getting into that yet. She didn't even have a boyfriend to begin with.
"Why were you crying earlier?" Jin asks her later on.
She's drunk but not drunk enough to be telling things she didn't want to reveal.
"Secret." She answers as she stands up a bit wobbly and he reaches out to steady her. "I have to go bathroom" She said as she walks away from him. When he tries to follow her she shakes her head. "I think I can pee without help. But thanks anyway." She said making both of them laugh.
After washing her hands, she rests her head on the cold wall of the bathroom. She feels awful, not because of her being drunk but because of the pain in her heart. She might be laughing in the outside but she isn't in the inside. It's torture specially when her body is calling out for him. She gives out a loud groan and tries to hit her head on the wall. She needs to wake up, the dream is over.
She opens the door and finds him standing there. She steps aside to give him way nodding at his direction but not looking at him anymore. He nods back at her and when he passed her, Aliya surprised both of them when she lightly touched his arm.
"Thanks for the painting again. It's hanging at my living room. Seems like you already have guessed where I was going to put it." She tells him softly.
He gives her a small smile. "I guess I did."
"Well uh, thanks again. I love it." And I love you too, her mind is screaming.
He nods his head again. "That's good to know."
Good to know that I love you? Aliya thought ridiculously with a silent laughter. Her drunk mind is messing her up.
"If you need to talk about what's upsetting you, I'm just here." Yoongi tells her snapping her out of her thoughts.
Aliya didn't want to look at his direction as she spoke. "But not for long right?"
"Yes, but I'm not leaving until Monday evening." He tells her.
"You're not busy?" Stop asking questions Aliya, she screams at herself.
Yoongi scowls at her. "No, why?"
"Nothing." She replies quickly as she starts walking. "I don't want to hold you back from...the bathroom." She has to leave before her drunk mouth starts talking about something she shouldn't.
"Aliya," He calls out to her. She stops but does not turn to him. "is there something you want to tell me?"
"Uh, not really." Aliya replies. She starts walking away but she feels his hands on her shoulders stirring her to face him.
"Is there something you want to tell me?" He asks again.
"No, I have nothing to tell you." Aliya tells him her eyes focusing on the prints of his shirt.
"Look at me damn it." He tells her angrily.
Aliya takes her time before she looked at him. She had to get herself in control of her feelings. When her eyes meets his, she clenched her hands tightly making her fingernails dig into her palm so that she'd focus more on that pain rather than what she is feeling inside. His eyes drops to her lips and she sees that familiar glint in his eyes. He leans closer to her but Aliya takes a step back.
"No, we shouldn't." She tells him, thinking she cannot have him kiss her when he is in a relationship with someone. It's not right and she is not that type of girl.
"Why?" He asks her.
"You know why." Aliya tells him before turning her back to him before walking away.

Soul Core Online
Soul Core Online was a game that few people were interested in until after it was released, due to its odd way of handling character growth but this soon changed as people started to realise just how different this game was. Unlike many of its predecessors the NPCs in Soul Core Online acted in a way that was indistinguishable from real people and the world felt alive because of this instead of the empty and sterile cities we had come to expect, even walking down the street could give you insights to how these people lived. In my case this was the world that I had always wanted to visit and I soon found myself embroiled in the constantly changing world that is Soul Core Online. This story is currently only available here on Royal Road or on my Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/bkwrm196/posts?filters%5Btag%5D=Soul%20Core%20Online
