Moira (Ateez AU)

Chapter Three

It was finally lunch time, my body ready to shut down in exhaustion. Today has been the worse day of school so far, we had partner time in many classes and it got annoyingly loud. Sighing out I lean back in my chair and tilt my head back. I brought one hand up to cup my forehead as I rubbed at my temples. This caught the male's attention around me.

"You okay?" You heard Seonghwa ask from beside you. You've come to learn that he's a huge softie and only looks intimidating at first. He was having a bad day the first time you met but he's a lot like Jongho in the way of being polite and friendly to everyone. No wonder so many girls swoon over him and give you glares, you're where they wanna be.

"Oh, I'm fine. Just a headache forming from the way all the classes have been noisy today." I mumbled in response. Nodding his head slowly, he takes the answer. The other two look between each other before looking at Seonghwa. I grabbed my stuff when I saw the last few students exit the classroom in the minute you've had your mini talk. I stand up and turn to walk towards the door. Once at the door I jumped not expecting the rest of the males to be waiting there, accidentally knocking myself back into a chest. Looking up I see its HongJoong and quickly move forward and away from him, muttering apologies.

I escape through the door and between the group of boys, beginning my walk to put my stuff up from class. The boys all followed behind me, causing my brows to furrow some but I assumed their just going that way to hang out again. Once I reached the hallway to my locker I saw a male waiting near it. I tilt my head, slowing my walk down a bit as I approach him.

"Uh hey? May I help you? You're standing in front of my locker." You say once you approach him. He seems to have been in a daze as he shakes his head before glimpsing behind you at the boys who are all looking between each other confused. Aside from San and HongJoong who looked like pouty babies after being scolded. You slowly unlock the locker and put your things inside before closing it, turning to the male near you. Puzzled on why he's here you go to open your mouth just for him to grip your wrist and pull you further down the hall, making it so the others can't see you as his frame blocks them. Now you were being cautious, your brain working in overdrive at the sudden action he took.

"I was just wondering, are you friends with Ateez?" He asked. You could get a pinch of an annoyed undertone from his voice. The way he glared at you every time you were with the boys didn't help your conclusion that he disliked you for something you didn't know you did. You slowly shook your head, your eyes narrowing slightly.

"No, I'm not really friends with the boys, I'm more so classmates and acquaintances of them. Why? What does it matter to you anyway?" Your tone was clipped. You could smell the amusement rolling off Wooyoung and Yunho from here, almost making you roll your eyes. Your focus went back to the male in front of you, what was the reasoning he had to even do this?

He simply nodded before turning and walking down the hall towards the cafeteria. You looked towards the boys and shrugged your shoulders before walking towards them. Stopping in front of them you see a mischievous glint in Wooyoung's eyes as he clings to Yeosang's arms. He was practically vibrating on the spot in excitement as he jumped forward and clung onto your arm. You jumped in shock as you looked up at the male. Your other hand quickly grabbing his in response.

"Nira, do you not know who that is? What did the schools golden boy and number one jock want with you, hm?" He had his eyebrow quirked and his lips splayed a smirk across his face. You rolled your eyes and just pulled him with you to walk. You wanted to at least find the cafeteria for some water or a vending machine so you figured one of the boys would be your best bet at that.

"He questioned why I talk to you lot. Anyways, is there a vending machine or something? I want a water." You reply to him and the others questioning looks. Nodding to himself, Wooyoung drags you to the cafeteria. You could smell the chaos about to begin from a mile away so it was no surprise to you when he smirked confidently to himself as he wrapped an arm around your shoulder, walking into the large dining hall. You groaned internally and fidgeted with your fingers as you walked to the back counters with him. You could hear some of the other males giggling with each other while everyone else in the room watched you like a hawk.
