Yeonwoo's POV
Everything that's happening right now feels like a dream. Holding hands with him and walking on the shore while hearing the loud splashes from the waves. What i'm feeling for Hyunjae...It isn't the same as what I was feeling for Juyeon nor Chan. With Hyunjae, my heart beats faster but I feel comfort and warmth when I'm with him. I found out today that it was more than a crush, thanks to him.

"What should I call you? Jagi? Babe?", I asked through aegyo and he laughed so loud, cringing.

"HAHAHAHA! It's too cringy!", he said while holding his stomach as he laughs. I stand there, clueless as to why he's laughing that hard. I find it funny too but now THAT funny. He stopped laughing and looked at me.

"Then what should I call you?", I asked.

"Hm...To be honest, I'm with you calling me Oppa like you always do but when you call me by my name, my heart skips a beat.", he said with his hands on his chest with sparkling eyes.

Hyunjae's POV

"Hyunjae-yah~~~", she said cutely and I couldn't help but smile at her.

"Aigoo!! How cutee!!", I said as I pinched her cheek.

"But don't you have class?", she stopped walking and asked.

"Tsk..Says the one who skipped class first. It's you're fault. You're the reason why I skipped class!!", I said.

"It's not like I told you to come here!", she crossed her arms and scoffed, continues walking, leaving me behind, sulking.

I then ran to catch up with her. "Are you upset?", I said and smiled as she was so cute with her sulky side. I suddenly heard a gurgling sound beside me so I bended down to reach her eye level.

"You haven't eaten, right?", I said and she held her stomach.

"There's a restaurant over there! Let's eat.", I held her hand and we started walking towards the restaurant near the shore.

Yeonwoo's POV
He's so considerate. I thought as we were walking to the restaurant, hand in hand. I then looked at him and he smiled at me and I smiled back. We were about to enter just until I heard a familiar voice.

"Kim...Yeonwoo?", I turned back to see a group of tall handsome boys standing right beside a friend that I haven't seen in a long time.

"Bae Hoyoung?!", my eyes widened as I walked closer to the guy with whitish blonde hair and bro-hugged him.

"It's been such a long time! Last time I saw you was during our fansign last year.", Hoyoung said and I looked at the guys beside him and hugged each of them.

"Yeonwoo Noona~~~"

"Kangmin-ahh~ How've you been?", I asked him excitedly and hugged him.

"I haven't seen you in our events so I felt sad.", he said while pouting,I laughed as he was so cute.

"I'm sorry~ I've been busy with school. I promise to go next time!", I said and broke the hug.

"But why are you guys here?", I asked.

"We had something to filming for our-", Kangmin was about to say but his mouth was covered by Hoyoung.

"Kangmin-ah, you can't spoil!", Dongheon said.

"We had work nearby and we were going to eat. But Hyunjae hyung's here too. It's been a while, hyung!", Hoyoung said while raising his hand.

"Yeah...It's been a while.", Hyunjae said and pretended to high five Hoyoung but instead gestured a scissor with his fingers.

"You're all here to eat, right? I'll buy you guys food!", I said.

"Eii~ You're a student, we work. I'll pay since i'm the oldest.", Dongheon said.

"Wah Hyung, REALLY?!?", Kangmin said excitingly.

"Wahhh~ Hyung Thank You!!", Hoyoung teased.

"Noona, he rarely treats us. You have to seize the opportunity.", Yongseung whispered and I chuckled softly.

"Okay...Dongheon Oppa, thank you~", I said as I went to Hyunjae who was at the back, just staring at me, sweetly.

"Let's go", I mouthed as I pointed the door to the restaurant and he just nodded.

We got a table for 9 people which consisted of me, Hyunjae, and VERIVERY. I sat in between Hyunjae and Yongseung. Hoyoung and Hyunjae were conversing, catching up while reminiscing the past as the last time they saw each other was at Hyunjae and Younghoon's graduation while I was just there listening to their conversation.

"Noona, who's the guy sitting next to you?", Yongseung, the one with the darker shade of blonde, leaned closer to ask me.

"My brother's best friend who went to school with me and Hoyoung. He's also my boyfriend", I said confidently.

"He's handsome.", Yongseung said which made me chuckle. I then felt Hyunjae hold my hand and squeeze it under the table. I looked at him, confused, but he just continued talking to Hoyoung.

"Yeonwoo Noona!", I looked at the owner of the voice and it was Gyehyeon, the red head.

"Who's your favorite in VERIVERY??", Yeonho asked. It looked like they were debating on who was my favorite in the group so they had to ask me.

"Eii~~ Of course it's me, I'm her best friend.", Hoyoung said.

"What do you mean?! It's me! Noona smiles a lot when she sees me, right Noona??", Kangmin said and I just chuckled.

"Yeonwoo-yah who is it?", Minchan, the guy my aged with a bandana in his forehead to match his outfit, asked and they all turned their heads to me.

"You're all my favorite. I don't really have a bias.", I said.

"No! If you had to pick one to hang out with the whole day, who would you picked? Me right?", Hoyoung asked.

"I'd hangout with all of you but if I were to pick one...",I said and looked at them one by one until my eyes reached Yongseung, who was beside me.

"Yongseung-ie!!", I said while pointing at him.

"Why?", Yongseung said with an innocent smile.

"Just because... I think we get along well.", I said.

"That's right...Only geniuses could understand each other.", Hoyoung said.

"Right!! You two look good together!", Yeonho said, still unaware of the fact that the guy beside me is my boyfriend.

"I agree with Yeonho! You two have been in your own little world since a while ago.", Gyehyeon said. I looked at Hyunjae who was smirking and clenching his jaw while sipping a drink from his cup.

"I'll go to the wash room for a while.", he excused himself and went to the wash room.

"Is he jealous?", I accidentally said out loud while looking at Hyunjae.

"Who??", Hoyoung asked and gasped after looking at me and Hyunjae back and forth.

"Are you dating?!", Hoyoung asked while pointing at me and Hyunjae who was walking to the wash room. I nodded and response and he asked.

"Does Younghoon hyung know?"

~To Be Continued~

Anyways, hope you enjoyed the chapter!! See you on the next one^^
