"I seriously regret the decision of coming here." I said dragging my feet across the floor, Soomi hurrying me to get out of the apartment at once.

"What kind of school starts at 8am? My classes always started at 10." I complained. "You'll get used to it darling, eventually."

We got into Felix's car, and soon arrived in front of the fashion academy I was going to attend together with the two of them and some of their friends.

"Okay so, first we need to go get your schedule and then we'll figure out what's next." Soomi said, excitedly marching towards the door.

We signed all the paperwork that needed to be done and received my class schedule, which Soomi took out of my hands the second we exited the enrollment room.

"Most of your classes you're spending with us, and the rest will just have people you met last night, so you're never alone." Felix explained, looking at the paper together with his girlfriend.

"I wanna go home." I said, feeling sleepy, emotionally unprepared for school and studying. "And I wanna go to the moon, it's not happening any time soon sweetie." Soomi said, handing me the schedule and casually linking our arms, dragging me down the hallway.

"We have a class together, so let's go take the best seats from people." And we did get the seats. How can we not, when she's friends with the entire damn academy.

"Why are we having literature as a class in a fashion academy?" I asked, trying to get used to all the new things.

"Because they say, poetry, quotes and talk about love can inspire our souls." Soomi explained, making grimaces at the same time.

"I like this class though.." Felix pouted.

"Bro, you like everything that's romantic." a voice spoke from behind us.

Turning around, I met the same brown eyes that sparkled that night; another smirk adorning his face. Soomi's voice was the sound I needed, to get myself together, and turn my attention to my phone.

"Oh, Hyunjin? Why are you here, you never took this class." she asked him.

I kept my gaze on my phone, that was just an acting prompt which made me look like I'm doing anything else instead of listening to their conversation.

"I found something interesting here." he gave her an answer, making a sound which clearly meant that he lowered a chair and settled in it.

It was so quiet, because most of the students didn't arrive yet. It made me feel so sleepy, and if Soomi's hand hasn't met my thigh I would've dozed off into a beautiful world of dreams.

"No sleeping. Drink your coffee." she put a coffee cup into my hands. Before the cups edge met my lips, a can of monster energy drink was being placed into my chairs cup holder.

I looked up and familiar blonde strands of hair gently brushed my cheek. I looked at him, standing there, above me, then exchanging a look between the can and him. "I bought one and got another one for free. You can have it." he said before returning into his seat and continuing his chat with Felix.

I looked at the can for a few seconds before casually opening it and pouring it into my coffee, catching the attention of all three of them. "I'm going to die." I said and drank the whole thing.

Soomi widened her eyes, trying to take away the cup, as Felix and Hyunjin burst out laughing. "This girl is insane." was the only thing he said, between the sounds of his loud laugh.

The class started, all the seats were taken by other unfamiliar faces, and the teacher greeted us the moment he walked into the classroom. And I only had one thing on my mind.

'Be careful. The devil has a pretty face' said by Soomi, just before the bell rang.

"..love is the easiest thing a person can do." the last part of the professors sentence woke me up from my thoughts and before thinking it through; a short but loud 'Tch' escaped my mouth and even though I was sitting in the middle row, kind of far away, he heard me and looked straight at me.

"Anything you would like to add miss..?"

"Y/l/n.." I said my last name. "And I must disagree with you and your thoughts of love. Love is the easiest thing a person can do?" I said, quoting him, and before he was able to answer,

"Maybe. In fictions, in books and all the other fake views of love." I added, making him look at me with more interest.

"But in reality, it is easy to hate and it is difficult to love. This is how the whole scheme of things works. All good things are difficult to achieve; and bad things are very easy to get."

I finished my thoughts and a few minutes of silence later the professor pointed at me with a smile.

"This. This is exactly what I want to do in my class. For you all to express your own thoughts, and not just look at me with those empty eyes waiting for the bell to dismiss you. I want you to fight with me and make me understand what you're saying." he said, the bell ringing right after he finished.

We took our stuff and slowly started heading towards the door. "I look forward to seeing you in my next classes, miss Y/l/n." the professor said, giving me a proud smile and I smiled back, before catching up with Soomi.

"Sometimes I forget that my Y/nnie grew up with her nose in the books." she said once we were in the hallway. "Nothing special about that." I said.

"Hyunjin, what did you think about our little Y/n's statement." she pulled the boy by the collar, making him slow down and look at us.

"They say people who read have an interesting mindset." he said and looked at me "Quite interesting." adding the last two words with a slight change in is voice.

I looked away, breaking the eye contact, to answer something Soomi asked me. "Huh? What?" I needed her to repeat it. "Which class is your next?" she asked. "Um," I took the schedule to check.

"Fashion business." I said, Soomi giving me a sulking face grimace. "This is where we part ways my French baby. See you in the next mutual class, hopefully today." she said, hugging the air out of me before leaving in a different direction from mine.

"Silly girl, you could've at least told me where's the right classroom.." I forgot I would get lost without her, and now I'm just stuck there not knowing where to go next.

"You're in number 16." Hyunjin spoke, after hearing my thought being said out loud.

"Follow me." giving me a smile he started walking, followed by me because he was my only hope right now.

He led me to the door which had number 16 engraved on its middle and opened them, for me to enter. "You're not taking this class?" I asked, seeing how he doesn't have any intentions of walking inside. To my suspicion, he shook his head and pointed down the hall. "I'm on the other side of the building."

I gave an acknowledgeable look, kind of feeling disappointed not gonna lie. As I was about to turn around and walk over to any available seat, "Y/n." he called out my name.

"Hm?"

"I'll pick you up, later." he said, flashing me a smile and heading to his own class.

Dear heart, if you would be so kind to stop fucking around and just sit down. Because if you keep dancing and beating so fast, I might think I'm getting a heart attack, which is very possible.
