"Hey, Hyerin! What's up?"

The said girl pried her attention away from the textbook she was reading and looked up. She raised a brow as she came face to face with the tall boy. "Sehun? Again? What are you doing here?"

"What? Am I not allowed in the school library?" He pouted. "I was just going to borrow something for class."

She rolled her eyes. "I never said you weren't allowed," she scoffed, turning back to the book again. "Now go do whatever you have to do. No offense, but I need to study for an exam and you're kind of a distraction."

"Huh. I didn't know there was going to be a big test to study for."

An arm dropped on her shoulder, making her jump in surprise. Thinking it was Sehun, she shrugged the hand away. "Sehun, go aw–Chanyeol?"

"That's because you never pay attention in class, Yeol. Why are you even surprised?" Kai sat beside Hyerin, winking at her. "Hello, beautiful."

"Says the one who failed his English test." Lay, along with Suho, appeared behind her.

"What are you studying?" the president asked, smiling brightly at Hyerin.

"Uh, Alge-"

"Screw Algebra! We should all go party tonight!" Xiumin sauntered towards their table. "What's up, Hyerin?"

"What in the world is happening-"

"Or maybe no, don't screw Algebra. I know how deadly Mr. Hwang's tests are and you better study," Chen said, looking at her pointedly.

"Yeah, he gives the worst exams ever," Luhan added, plopping down on a chair.

"Psh. I don't think anyone has ever passed that idiot teacher's exams. It's like he makes sure each and every one of his students fail," Kyungsoo snorted, grumpily making his way next to Chen.

"Can anyone please explain to me why D.O. always seems to act like a little bitch? I mean, no offense, bro." Tao raised his arms in defense as he approached their table. Kyungsoo rolled his eyes.

Kris' tall stature towered over their seated positions. "I still don't get why we have to come out one by one when we can just-"

"Fucking Kris! Shut up! You're ruining it!" Xiumin exclaimed. The boy rolled his eyes.

Silence.

"Oh. Is it my turn already?" Baekhyun's innocent face peeked behind one of the tall shelves as the others groaned. He shrugged, seeing that there was no point in going along with their plan. He sat himself next to Kyungsoo.

Hyerin had her mouth open in shock the whole time. "Uh, what is this supposed to be?"

"They have something very important to tell you, Hyerin. They hope that you would listen to what they have to say," Sehun explained, looking at the boys pointedly. "Well?"

Chanyeol cleared his throat. "We're here to say that...say that we're, you, we-" he stammered, rubbing the back of his neck. "We're, you know, that, well-"

"Oh for fuck's sake," Tao groaned, burying his head in his hands.

"What? I'm not good at these things, okay!?" Chanyeol hissed in defense.

"Yeah, 'cause all you're ever good at is being a pretty boy," Kai teased, propping his head on top of his knuckles.

"Oh, shut up."

"Just do it."

"Can we get this over with!?"

"Jesus, can't we all just get something done peacefully for once?" Luhan murmured, leaning back on his seat wearily.
