The next day at school there were whispers going around as Yeongeun walked through the halls of the school, she hated it so much. "Are you okay?" Felix asked from beside her, she shook her head. "No, I hate the whispers." She said quietly, the whispers suddenly stopped, Yeongeun then noticed a boy with blue hair passing by, he didn't look at her nor talked to her which she secretly thanked him for, she didn't need for there to be more rumors going around, but it seemed like the ignoring her made it worse, she heard things like: 'did they fight?', 'ooo trouble in heaven?' And such, she hated them even more

"I swear they're dating, I saw them at the arcade yesterday and he kept on calling her love." Yeongeun heard from outside the classroom, she entered the classroom angrily. "How about you shut your mouth? Having fun spreading rumors about people you know nothing about?" She recognized that voice, it was of the girl which asked why she had colored hair.

The girl rolled her eyes. "Its so obvious you're dating, why would he call you love?"

"Hell if I know, he just randomly started calling me that." Yeongeun said, getting annoyed. "Maybe he's just flirty."

"Only flirty with you, love." Minho suddenly came into the classroom, he was smiling. "What happened to ignoring me?" She quietly asked as he was now next to her, she considered him ignoring her better than noticing her. "Got bored of it." He answered.

"There! You see! He's calling her love!" The girl said, pointing at Minho. "Got a problem with that?" Minho raised an eyebrow, the girl went quiet and shook her head. "Thought so." He then took Yeongeun's hand and took her to their table.

"Great! Now everyone will think we're dating." Yeongeun said as she sat down, Minho sat down as well and looked at her with a smile. "Its not that bad, let them think whatever they want."

"I don't like attention." Yeongeun sighed, she then looked at Minho and got confused by why he was smiling. "Why are you smiling?"

"Cause everyone thinks you're mine." He answered, the smile still on his face, Yeongeun slapped him on the arm. "Its not a good thing dumbass."

"It is for me." Yeongeun was about to answer but the teacher entered the classroom.

While they were studying Yeongeun could feel Minho's eyes on her, she didn't understand why of course, she found it very odd and uncomfortable.

As lunch came, Yeongeun turned towards Minho. "Why did you keep on looking at me during the lesson?" Her gaze followed him as he stood up, she did as well following him. "Because I wanted to."

"People will think you're in love or something." Yeongeun snorted, Minho smiled. "I am in love."

"With who?" Minho shook his head, chuckling. "With you, dummy." Yeongeun shook her head. "How? We barely know each other, we met yesterday."

"I've been watching you." He said, Yeongeun shuddered. "Creepy."

"It wasn't in a creepy way I swear, you just always got my interest and seemed cool." Minho said as he scratched his neck, seeming nervous about admitting it. Yeongeun was surprised by his sudden confession, one of the most popular guys at school liked her, something every girl wished for, but yeonegun wasn't sure what she wanted, what she liked, who she liked, she just knows she likes being unique.

And then, she tripped. Some guy thought it would be funny to put his leg in her way, luckily for her Minho had good reflexes and caught her before she would kiss the ground. "Thank you." She said, straightening up. "Are you ok?" He asked, still having his arms around her, she nodded. "Yeah yeah, I'm ok. You can let go now."

Minho let her go and they kept on walking, Yeongeun flipping off the dude which tripped her, she was annoyed to say the least. "God, I hate people they can be such assholes sometimes." Minho nodded in agreement. "Yeah they can be, but some are cool. Like you."

"Oh shut up." Yeongeun rolled her eyes at his comment, finding it too cheesy for her.

"Who's leaving who now?" Felix caught up to the two now, Yeongeun looked at him with an apologetic look. "So sorry Lix, I just had to speak with Minho."

"Nah its ok, I was planning on ditching you anyways, see you later!" Felix ran away before Yeongeun could say anything. "That jerk! Did you hear that? He was planning on leaving me alone again!"

"What about your other friends?" Minho asked, he was sure he saw her with other people at the lunch table and they seemed pretty close. "Oh... uh... you mean the people who were at the lunch table?" Minho nodded. "They aren't really my friends, they're Felix's, I mean we get along don't get me wrong but its kinda awkward without Felix there."

"Oh. You can sit with us if you want to." Minho suggested, he was hoping she would say yes to sitting with them, he wouldn't mind more of her company. "Um.. sure I guess, its not like I have something better to do." Minho smiled and took her hand, leading her over to the lunch table he and his friends sit at.

There at the table sat two guys, Chan and Hyunjin. "Where's Changbin?" Minho asked as they sat at the table, putting down their food. "He's out with Felix." Hyunjin answered while taking a bite out of his food.

"So you're telling me, Felix ditched me for a guy?" Yeongeun said, scoffing. The two guys at the table nodded.

Yeongeun crossed her arms, annoyed at a certin Mr. Lee Felix. "Why would he ditch me for a guy? I'm his best friend!"

"Aren't you ditching him too, for Minho?" Chan asked, raising his eyebrow. "No." The girl said, there was a moment of silence before she continued. "Ok yeah, but he has friends, I don't."

"You have Minho." Hyunjin said, taking a bite out of his food. "Yeah but Minho is annoying."

"I'm hurt." Minho said, pouting. Yeongeun chuckled at the look on his face. "What's funny?" Minho furrowed his eyebrows, he didn't tell any jokes and he sees no reason to laugh. "Your pouting face is funny, don't do that again." The girl said, chuckling again.

"I'm hurt again... what is it with you and hurting me? Maybe I shouldn't have invited you here." Minho said jokingly, Yeongeun was the one to pout this time, she didn't like Minho's joke. "Oh come on love, I was only joking."

"I know, but it wasn't funny." Yeongeun said, Minho nodded. "Ok, I'll tell a funnier joke next time."

"Please don't, your jokes are horrible." Hyunjin said, shuddering at the thought of Minho's jokes. "Are they really that horrible?" Yeongeun asked, Hyunjin and Chan nodded. The rest of lunch went like that, Yeongeun took quite a liking to the popular boys, they seemed nice and chill and not at all the assholes the rummors said they were.
