Angel POV

He suffocates me as we leave the store!! "Babe, let go!" He hasn't let me go since the toy shop incident, which was half an hour ago. He's so close I can taste his scent right now. "Oppa, what's with sudden clinginess?" Yeji asks what I was also thinking.

"People can't seem to take a hint" I roll my eyes before removing myself from him. "Isn't that the point? Didn't we agree on no pda?" He shakes his head. "I only agreed so you wouldn't be angry with me, if not for that I would suffocate you with kisses" he says and I sigh, this is harder for him than I thought but it's still so surreal for me.

It hasn't even been a month yet, I have to take him in small doses but he likes breathing me in all the time it's cute but I don't want him to know that.  I look at my penguin of a boyfriend and rub his head "When we get home you can cuddle with me and Yeji, okay?" He frowns as Yeji perks up from her phone, finally acknowledging us.

"There you are!" I tell her and she smiles "Thought you became deaf by the phone" "I'm not. Come on let's get home faster!" She quickens her pace and I follow until we get outside.

A bunch of people surround us holding big black flashing invasion weapon. Cameras. I immediately panic and cover Yeji from the lights as they bombarded us with questions.

"Is that Park Sunghoon's little sister?"

"Park Sunghoon can we see your matching jewelry?"

"Angel Taylor, when did you guys start dating?"

"Are you guys actually dating?"

"Is it true that you moved out here for Park Sunghoon, Angel Taylor?"

"Is it true your Ice skating days are over because you got third place?"

Sunghoon oppa gets in front of us trying to clear a path. "Let's us through! We won't answer your questions at this time!" Yeji clings to me in fear. "Unnie, I want to go home" I try and move us past the reporters but they keep persisting and Sunghoon oppa has to push through them. The lights, loud talking and my own questions made me a bit nauseous.

"How long do you plan to stay here?"

"Angel Taylor? Did you really leave your mom in the US?"

"What do you plan to do now, Angel Taylor?"

"Are you and Park Sunghoon just dating for publicity?"

I push Yeji into the car as Sunghoon oppa drives off. "You okay, Yeji?" He looks at her through the rear view and she nods leaning on my shoulder. "How did they find us? Who could've done this?" Sunghoon oppa asks frustratedly.

"Angel Taylor? Did you really leave your mom in the US?"

"My mom" I say. It makes sense, terrible sense but sense nonetheless. She had someone follow us the last time but this time she called reporters. So she was purposely ignoring me and spying on me and my boyfriend.

"I don't think your mom would do that"- I cut him off as we enter his driveway.  "I have to go, okay?" He starts to argue but I ignore him "Yeji, I'll see you next time, okay?" She nods in slight confusion before I go to my car.

Sunghoon POV

As soon as I open the door we get smothered by our parents. "Sunghoon-ah! Yeji honey, are you alright?" Mom squeezes us tightly as we nod, she checks all over our faces, arms and hands frantically. "We saw the news" Dad says in a concerned way with a worried expression.

"Where's Angel? Is she okay?" Mom says. "She wanted to go home" "Why would you let her go home alone? You know she has no one but us here" mom scolds me "hurry and go to her" she basically shoos me out. "She wants to be alone though, mom" Her and Yeji roll their eyes at me.

"Do you not know anything, son? Do you want me to beat you?! Go!" And that's how I ended up on the way to my girlfriend's house not knowing if she there or not.

Angel POV

I need fresh air, so I'm at a park near my house kumbaya-ing. I call my dad because he's my only support system right now. "Dad?" "What's wrong? I saw the news" I groan. "You did?!" I ask. "Even if I didn't, I had three of my friends call to tell me" he says. "Dad, I think mom sent them to us" "What makes you say that?"

"She had someone follow us the last time I came out here and a reporter asked me 'Did I really leave my mom in the US?' If that wasn't obvious enough" My dad smacks his teeth. "I'm sorry honey. This is terrible" I sniff. "Dad, she does hate me. I've tried calling her before but she didn't answer and now, people are following me and my boyfriend around" I cry.

"I can't speak for her but just know I'll always love you, okay?" I sniff in reply. "Dad, should I go back to her?" "You should do what's best for you, okay?  You're mom and I have lived our lives and you should be able to live yours too" he says, that doesn't really help though because I'm sad that she's not talking to me.

The sun starts to set lower and I hear my dad yawn "I better go, I have to get up soon" he kisses the phone before hanging up. I realize he never denied that my mom did call the reporters, which he meant even he knew that mom would do something like this.

I walk into my apartment groggily and head straight to my bed shoes on and all until I see a long figure occupying my space already. "You're gonna make me regret giving you a spare key" I say to the sleeping figure that is my boyfriend. He wakes up when I push him over "Where did you go? I waited for you for so"- I kiss him to shut him up, which is effective.
