Rebels At Their Finest (Block B)

11: A Type Life

Taeil led Kyu Ree into the dorm, pointing to each specific room and naming it as one of the members. Zico and P.O. were sitting on the floor playing cards. Both looked up and immediately smiled.

"Hey girl." Zico said, smirking.

"Hey guy," She answered, smiling. "Is this going to be a thing?"

Zico nodded. "As long as you keep coming around, yes."

P.O. waved. "How are you today, Starr?"

Taeil shook his head. "She's Kyu Ree out of work."

Kyu Ree shrugged. "Whatever's fine. I've been better, P.O., but I appreciate you guys letting me come over." She said, smiling.

Taeil spoke first. "We're going to be in my room for a bit. We have some things we need to talk about," This sounded like a warning to Kyu Ree, but P.O. and Zico smiled knowingly. Taeil pressed a hand against the small of her back. "Come get us when the food gets here." He said, steering her towards his room.

He opened the door and gestured for her to go in. There were a few other beds in the room, but he pointed to his, and Kyu Ree strode to it, sitting on his bed. He closed the door, and then turned to her. "What happened?"

"River's terrible cousin keeps showing up at her apartment. She has no respect, and decided to go through all my belongings. She just," Kyu Ree sighed. "She brought up some things that I really wanted to be kept in the past."

Taeil nodded, sitting across from her on his bed. He was dressed in a tee and gray sweatpants, making Kyu Ree feel over dressed, as she wore a flowing shirt with blossom designs on it, paired with tight jeans and she had been wearing gold ballet flats. "So," He started. "You're probably not ready to share that information with me, are you?" She shook her head. "So, you're a doctor, huh?"

"What?" She spat, her heart beginning to race all over again. Had he somehow gained access to her information as well?

He bit his lip. "I noticed that there were some college textbooks for medical courses, and they had your name written inside of them. They were left out that night that you crashed over here." She sighed quietly, relieved that it was just that. "So are you?"

She slowly nodded her head. "I went to college for it, yes."

"But you... aren't?"

She sighed. "I have my doctorate. I have everything I need to be a legal doctor. I apprenticed at this hospital near my old house, and I was all ready to go."

"But?"

"But I just don't want to be a doctor." She frowned. "I mean, I love the idea of helping people but... being a doctor just wasn't for me. It never was. I only did it because my parents wanted me to so badly." She sighed again. "I'm a lot happier as a DJ."

Taeil smiled. "But I bet the money was better before." She shrugged. "So... is there a reason you sleep on the couch?" He asked, leaning over and grabbing some kind of lollipop on the desk beside his bed.

He offered one to Kyu Ree, but she shook her head. "I just like it better than an actual bed." She said, shrugging her shoulders. "River's couch is pretty comfortable."

Taeil laughed. "Liar."

"It is!" Kyu Ree laughed. "I swear, it's nice." She shook her head. "What about you? What's up with you always eating some kind of candy?"

Taeil shrugged. "I like sweets." He said plainly. "So is River with that DJ now?"

"What?"
