IF. My Boyfriend is Too Good to Me (Gender-Swapped TS Edition)

Han Yeonha. 18 years old. High school girl.

For 18 years, I've lived a life of moderate studying and hanging out with friends. Today, after secretly chatting with friends on KakaoTalk during evening self-study, I was on my way home.

On that familiar path, I encountered an unbelievable moment.

It was a dimly lit alley, but not too narrow, with plenty of streetlights and a few passersby in the distance.

Right in the middle stood a figure, clearly waiting for me.

Though I couldn't be sure, he seemed at least 15cm taller than me. Under his neat crew cut, I glimpsed fair skin that seemed to glow and distinct features.

Even from that brief glance as I walked, I could tell. His looks rivaled those of the male idols my friends and I had been squealing about earlier today.

I tried to sneak a peek at that captivating face as I passed, but I couldn't. Those eyes were unmistakably fixed on me.

What's going on?! Is he lost? Trying to mug me? Or just checking if he knows me?

Honestly, I, Han Yeonha, was considered a pretty cute girl. I'd even received a few confessions back in middle school when it was co-ed.

But I didn't think I was attractive enough for a guy like him to fall for me.

So why on earth was he staring at me...?

As I was slowly trying to sidle past him, bewildered by his warm gaze, suddenly, he strode confidently towards me.

While I was still flustered and stammering, he uttered an unbelievable sentence.

"Will you go out with me?"

His smile seemed somewhat melancholic yet brimming with joy as he confessed to me.

Only one thought crossed my mind.

This must be a scam. Either friends were hiding somewhere, or it was some prankster YouTuber, or maybe even a cult member sent to recruit new followers.

I should have rejected him. I needed to get out of there fast.

But.

When the guy in front of me took another step closer and said,

"Will you... be my girlfriend?"

The moment he confessed to me again,

"...Yes."

I found myself accepting before I knew it.

His looks were simply too irresistible to turn down.

---

A month later.

"Back then, I really thought it was a scam..."

"Hm? What did you say?"

"Oh, nothing. This is delicious. Heeyun, let me pay for this."

"No way. I said I'm treating you."

"I said I'll pay! Put your wallet away right now!"

Despite a 99% chance of it being a scam, I had no choice but to accept that confession.

After many conversations, I learned it wasn't a lie or a joke. Honestly, I remained suspicious for about two or three weeks after we started dating, but seeing how devoted my boyfriend Heeyun was to me, I felt too guilty to keep doubting him.

No, even now that I believe him, I always feel guilty.

Why, you ask?

Because he's just too good to me!

Heeyun was the perfect boyfriend. Even setting aside his height and good looks, he was smart, incredibly kind, always planned our dates before I could even mention anything, and even insisted on paying!

Of course, I stubbornly made sure we split costs as evenly as possible when it came to money, but still, Heeyun did so much for me on a daily basis.

God, shit. I want to shout to the world, "This guy is my boyfriend!!" Of course, I didn't. I was already getting cussed out by my friends for dating such a handsome boyfriend, so there was no need to brag about all these details.

They might be a bit crazy, but they're still my close friends, so I didn't want to rub it in unnecessarily.

"Yeonha, wait a sec."

"Hm?"

As we were about to get up after finishing our meal, Heeyun stopped me.

Then, leaning over the table, he cupped my cheek and—

*lick*

"......!!"

He pressed his lips close to my cheek, not quite on my lips. At the same time, I felt something slightly rough and moist brush against my skin—he'd definitely licked that area with his tongue!

*clatter!*

"...! H-hey! W-what are you doing?!"

I jumped up from my seat at the sudden skinship. We hadn't even progressed to kissing yet, so I was even more flustered.

But this jerk of a boyfriend, despite his outrageous act, just smiled innocently and said,

"You had something on your face. Did you not like it?"

"...I-I didn't hate it... but doing that so suddenly..."

"I'm sorry. Should I ask first next time?"

"......"

"Yeonha, you're so cute."

"Shut up."

This innocent smile and smooth talking made me suspicious all over again.

This bastard, I bet he lied about me being his first girlfriend.

The way he smirked and spoke so smoothly definitely wasn't something he'd picked up overnight. For all I knew, I could be his second or third girlfriend.

Of course, it seemed unlikely he was two-timing, given that he came to meet me right after school every day. There was no way he could be cheating. But maybe he'd had a girlfriend before?

"Hm? Yeonha."

"D-do whatever you want!"

Anyway, all I could do was blush and play along with this guy who seemed to be toying with me.

Honestly, I didn't hate it that much. Even if he was a bit mischievous at times, it made me feel loved by my boyfriend.

---

As our relationship progressed smoothly, Heeyun started tutoring me. Of course, I was thrilled. After all, we could be together while studying, which to me was no different from a date.

Some days we'd study at a cafe, other days in a study room. Of course, our regular dates didn't decrease even with the added study sessions. One day, I was even invited to Heeyun's house.

For days leading up to my visit to his place, I agonized over what to wear.

Dressing up as prettily as possible? That was a given. The issue was to what extent. Should I put effort into my underwear too, just in case?

When I consulted my friends, they said:

"At the very least, make sure your underwear matches, you know that, right?"

"Do you think I'm an idiot?!"

"Just checking~ Oh, and condoms?"

"Wh-what are you... Why would I need to prepare those...!"

"What's with you, girl? Isn't that why you're freaking out and asking us about this?"

"Seriously. More importantly, if you really do it, you better give us all the details, okay? I'll be glued to my phone that day."

"Me too, me too!"

"Thanks for the 'advice,' you crazy bitches."

All I got was useless chatter. Well, they weren't entirely wrong, but still.

In the end, I chose the best outfit I had and visited Heeyun's house. His empty house, with no family members around.

Honestly, isn't it natural for me to have all sorts of fantasies in this situation?

But on the day of my visit, nothing remotely close to that happened. My boyfriend was, thankfully, a perfect gentleman.

"What do you think of this? I made it into a frame with our photos."

"Wow~ It's beautiful! I didn't know you did things like this."

"Of course. They're all memories of us. It'd be a shame to keep them just on our phones."

He showed me around his room, decorated with photos and small frames of us.

"W-wait, wait, wait! This pose is a bit...!"

"Why? Are you embarrassed?"

"You know I am!"

"Just bear with it a little. Didn't you say you wanted more photos together?"

"That's true, but...!"

"Okay, say cheese~"

"Ugh!"

He shamelessly sat me on his lap, wrapping his large hands around my waist as we took a photo together.

"You were really..."

"Really what?"

"...handsome even when you were young."

"Not as cute as you were though."

"......"

"Yeonha's so cute, right?"

"Shut up."

We leisurely browsed through my boyfriend's childhood photo albums.

And finally.

"......"

"......"

*ring ring*

"...! Ah!"

"Hah... Of all times."

Just as we were about to share our first kiss while watching a movie in the living room, during that golden opportunity—

We even got to meet Heeyun's parents, who returned home earlier than expected.

"Hehe~ You're Yeonha, right? Please continue to get along well with our Heeyun~"

"Y-yes!"

"You're not hungry, are you? Honey, since Heeyun brought his girlfriend, should we go out for dinner?"

"It's okay! That would be too much..."

"Nonsense."

It was a shame to miss the perfect chance for our first kiss, but I was glad to greet Heeyun's parents, who seemed to like me and treated me warmly.

"Huff..."

Heeyun looked a bit sulky, probably because we missed our chance. Seeing my boyfriend, who usually greeted me with a gentle smile, show such a childish side because we couldn't kiss.

Somehow, it was incredibly cute.

---

Next came our first summer vacation together.

We went on a day trip to the beach. We took an early morning train there and planned to return on a late-night bus. Heeyun didn't seem too fond of taking the bus, but it was the only transportation available for our late return journey.

"Yeonha, are your legs tired? Sit on this."

"Is it okay to sit on your suitcase? I'm heavy, won't it break?"

"What do you mean heavy? I'm more worried you're so light you might blow away."

"Hey, you know that's a total exaggeration, right?"

We cuddled close together at the train station, dressed in matching couple outfits, cooing over each other from the start of our trip.

After arriving in Sokcho, having lunch, and finally reaching the beach—

"Aren't you staring a bit too intensely?"

"You're so beautiful, I'm speechless. The swimsuit really suits you. Truly."

"...Thanks."

I had mustered up the courage to wear a pareo-style swimsuit that showed quite a bit of skin, though not quite a bikini, and my boyfriend was staring at me without hesitation.

Feeling both satisfied and a little embarrassed by his intense reaction, I also snuck glances at various parts of Heeyun's body.

After a brief awkward moment, we played in the water and sand, enjoying ourselves thoroughly. We also bought snacks from nearby food stalls, making the most of our day.

A couple of hours before catching the bus back home, as we were walking hand in hand along the darkening beach—

"Yeonha."

"Yeah?"

"Thank you."

"For what?"

"For dating me. For accepting my confession."

"......"

What followed was Heeyun's long confession in a wistful voice. While it made my heart flutter, I felt it didn't make sense for him to thank me for this relationship when I should be the one thanking him a hundred, no, a thousand times over.

"Hey, Lee Heeyun."

"Huh? Mmph!"

I grabbed his collar, pulled him towards me, and silenced him with my lips. It might not have been the most romantic first kiss, but—

A moment later, as Heeyun gently embraced me and deepened the kiss—

We managed to end it quite romantically.

Our relationship had started with a sudden confession, and we had been gradually closing the strange distance between us.

From that day on, we began to spend even happier days together.

"...But this guy, he talks big but never actually makes a move."

"Did you want me to?"

"?!?! Y-you! When did you get here?!"

"Just now. But if you want it that badly... I won't hold back, you know?"

"......"

"Hm? Yeonha."

"D-do whatever you want..."

While doing this and that, of course.

Author's Note:

This TS edition ends here. I just wrote it as a taste of an "if" scenario... I thought about how their personalities and situations would naturally change if the two became men or women, but it feels a bit subtle...!

By the way, writing this makes me want to start my next work. I wonder when I'll be able to begin.
