[ Third Person POV ]

She talked.

She trusted him.

She believed that all of these act will lead them to become a good friend.

Though at first it seemed impossible as he's cold as ice while she's warm as the sun but sun melts the ice, don't they?

She told him, how In-Yeop was once her good friend but it all changed when he confessed and she rejected as she didn't felt the same way. In-Yeop started to invade her privacy, he stalked her and even tried to kidnapped her to make her his.

But she was grateful to have a good strong friend like Jungkook who always protects her though she felt bad for being a burden and being the cause of them to cancel their dates just made it worse.

" He's a psycho then," Taehyung commented.

" Yep! He is," Haeun sighed. " Why can't he just respect my decision? If he did, then we would've been friends right now," She added.

" Did you ever try to talk to him about it after you rejected him? " He asked.

" I did! I asked him if he either wanted to lose me or keep me as a friend though he didn't answer the question, he only told me that he can't lose me, he told me that he wanted to fix it. I don't understand, there's nothing to fix," Haeun looked down.

" What he meant by fix, Haeun, is that he wished for the time to get back to before you rejected him. He's trying to win your heart and confess after that...though that was just my opinion," He said.

"  Even if we did go back to time and even if he did try to win my heart, I still wouldn't accept him, I only see him as a friend, nothing else," She sighed.

Taehyung's used to be icy gaze melted at the sight of her. Guilt built up inside him as he now know what she went through.

" Sorry," He sighed.

He started the engine and drove them back to the college.

The ride was silence though it was not awkward to her but it was to him. Usually, he didn't care if she talks or not but this time, he felt worried when she didn't talk, he was afraid if she started to overthink about this whole situation.

As they arrived, they sent the things at the teachers' office and he walked her to her dorm.

" Haeun," He called out.

He handed her his hand though he didn't make an eye contact.

" Take it," He said coldly.

Haeun was confuse but she took it anyway.

" I promise I'll respect you..even though this relationship is fake..." He looked away.

" That's new...especially coming from a guy like you," She smiled.

" Tch, whatever," He pulled his hand away and crossed his arms. " And also, have a good night, dream about me," He added and went away.

" He's so bad at it," She chuckled.

Though she thought that it was cute how he's not that type of person but he still tried to treat her that way.

They went back to their own dorm and Haeun gulped as soon as she met eye contact with her two best friends.

" Where were you? " Seohyun raised her eyebrows.

" Um...I was helping the teacher to buy some things," She answered.

" Until this late? " Jungkook eyes her suspiciously.

" Yeah,"

" Detention! " They exclaimed.

" W-what? What are you talking about? " She laughed nervously.

" He wasn't kidding when he said that he'll be your coach, Haeun," Seohyun said.

" But I have a valid reason, right? " She showed them her puppy eyes.

" Fine! Just this once,"

" Alright! You guys are the best! "

--

Though it was already in the morning, the sun was hiding behind the heavy clouds as they were watering the earth.

Haeun thought that it was the perfect weather to spent her time alone in her dorm while laying on the bed.

She was about to go to the dreamland when someone knocked the door.

" Ugh, clichè," She muttered under her breath.

The door opened revealing none other than the cold blonde guy, Kim Taehyung.

" Yes? " Haeum tilted her head.

" What do you mean yes? It's semester break, you need to learn more from your own best friend, Lee Seohyun. Didn't you see what she did? She's spending her time with her boyfriend, as you should do too," He crossed his arms.

" What? But it's raining," She whined.

" So? "

" Fine, come in," She slammed the door shut as he walked in.

As a guest, Haeun still need to respect him so she served him some snacks and a cup of hot chocolate as it is cold outside.

" Hot chocolate for a hot guy," She complimented as she put the cup on the table.

" Huh, I didn't know you find me attractive," He smirked. " So about that guy, did he still bother you after that post? "

As if fate heard him, her phone buzzed.

" Speaking of the devil," Haeun stated as she opened her phone.

Unknown : Hey there, love.

Unknown : I know it's your semester break this month. Wanna hangout?

" He's annoying," They both said in unison.

" Sometimes, me, myself don't understand why boys didn't listen to girls so I can't really relate much," He shooked his head.

" A good boy wearing a cold mask.." She commented. " You should take it off- "

" Eyy no! " He looked away.

" Wherefore? "

" It's up to me, it's my life," He shrugged his shoulder. " You took english literature don't you? "

" Yeah, how did you know? "

" You do know that adieu and wherefore are not modern english," He raised one of his eyebrows. " Beside, I actually took english literature too but why have I not seen you in that class before? "

" Oh...well..it's because I never attended any of them,"

" You never attended any of them and yet you still manage to get high marks- " He looked at me weirdly.

" Well it's because I study by myself,"

" Hmm...okay," He said as he leaned on the couch.
