Seduce Me {GNCD (Golden Child) Joochan}

<26>

Surprised to see the two together, both Joochan and I held our breaths to listen to the conversation Bomin and Y were having. I was so focussed on listening to the two that I didn't notice the incredible small distance between Joochan and I. 

"What are you talking about?" Y asked Bomin as he, while fixing his hair, scoffed a bit at the other. "You know right well what I mean," Bomin pushed Y to the side, while grabbing his collar, "I told you not to catch feelings." Y looked a bit uncomfortable and a small panic in his eyes. What were the two talking about? 

"I don't have feelings for him," Y let out as Bomin was still holding him in a position that was close to chocking him, "And I won't." Bomin dropped Y to the ground and kicked his leg, "Well, it's better that you don't, because if you do, our plan will be screwed up and you know he's not gonna be delighted to hear that it was because of your weak heart." Bomin sighed and walked away quickly, as Joochan and I shared a look. We both had some idea what it was about.

Joochan pulled me away and dragged me to the cafeteria, where the loud sound of people was overruling the sound of silence we just experienced in the hallway. "Joochan," I said, "Do you think it's about--" "Seungmin?" he finished my sentence and he grabbed my shoulders. "I knew Y had something up his sleeves but this?" Joochan sighed and looked into my eyes, "I know you two are friends. It's going to be fine, okay?" He patted my head a bit and sighed. "But we need to find out more about this," he concluded and I agreed, because I didn't want anyone to do harm to my friends. 

"come, sit down," Joochan said as he sat down somewhere and cleared a spot next to him. I sat down as he told me to and he grabbed a paper. "Is there any information you know about them?" he asked and I nodded slightly, although I wasn't hundred percent sure if I could fully trust him yet. "Seungmin and Y started dating suddenly. I don't know exactly why and when, but it's been a few weeks now." I told him, leaving out personal information and details I didn't trust him with yet. "I noticed that too. Y had been distancing himself from us for a while, but we weren't sure why. Since he started dating Seungmin, he had gotten back to us like nothing happened." Joochan told me and I nodded, looking at some words he wrote down on a paper.

"Oh, and at Jibeoms party, Jaehyun and I overheard a phonecall that Bomin was having. it was quite similar to this conversation. I think that phonecall could have been with Y too," I decided to tell him and he looked as if he was thinking deeply. "It looks like, however, a third party might be involved. They seem to be working together for something or rather someone." Joochan concluded as he wrote down a bunch of names. "Truthfully, I have no idea who it might be, but I'm not surprised by any of these." he showed me a list of people, some familliar names and some unfamilliar ones.

"What should we do?" I asked him and he grabbed my hand. "Don't worry," he said, "it will be fine. I'll be by your side." he smiled and his smile slightly enchanted me, but I tried not to show it. After a few seconds of silence, Joochan stood up and smiled again, "Call me if you need me," he said and walked away, leaving me in my seat alone, staring at the people in the cafeteria. Was one of these people really bad? What were they trying to do? And why were they after Seungmin? 

"Rosa, there you are," I looked around to see Daeyeol taking a seat next to me. "I was looking for you," he smiled and put down a big plate of food, at which I chuckled. "You really love food, don't you?" I commented and he nodded proudly before eating his dish. "Right," he said as he had remembered something, "I wanted to talk to you," he finished his bite and turned around to look at me. "I found a note on your locker this morning," he said and he grabbed something out of his back, which looked like the note he was talking about. "I have no idea who wrote this, but, look," Daeyeol handed me a folded note and I hestitantaly opened it, my eyes falling over the text over it.

"When you showed up, I was really - - - - - - - - 432154"

I stared at the node blanky. Was this some kind of joke?

"I think it's some kind of code," Daeyeol explained his thoughts, "Look, it's supposed to be a blank. I think this person tries to tell you something. Maybe it's a love confession, you never know." I started to think and looked at the note. If someone wanted to confess to me, why bother to set a code for it?

"Oh, by the way, Daeyin wanted to talk to you," Daeyeol said, "Could you meet up with her today? She's worried about something."

And with that, Daeyeol left suddenly.
