Charmed? I'm Not (bbangsaz version)

Chapter 9

"You're glowing."

Hanni looked up from her uneaten lunch and blushed. "What? No, I'm not. It's hot out here." She avoided Danielle's eyes but she could feel them burning a hole.

"Why won't you tell me what happened last night at Minji's house?" Danielle asked as she put her chin in her hand.

"Gee, I don't know Danielle. Maybe because someone wouldn't stop talking about Haerin," Hanni countered and gave her friend a smirk.

Danielle blushed as well. "Well, I'm not talking about her now, so tell me, what happened last night?"

"Nothing." It was mostly the truth. "We just worked on the songs."

"Uh huh, did you give her some private lessons?"

Hanni just shook her head. "No, you freak."

"Fine, ruin my fun. How was music anyways?"

"Very bad," Hanni sighed and looked across the quad to see Haerin coming towards their table. She frowned when she saw that Minji wasn't accompanying her. Mr. Han had asked Minji to stay again after class, but Hanni didn't know whether to wait for her or go on to lunch. Eventually, her hunger got the best of her and she left while Minji was still talking to their music teacher.

"Hey, guys," Haerin greeted when she reached the table. She gave Danielle a kiss on the cheek before sitting down next to her.

"Where's Minji?" Hanni immediately blurted out and received a look from both of the girls. "Um, I mean," she trailed off not really knowing what to say.

"She got held up by her locker," Haerin said smiling. "Don't worry, she'll be here."

"Oh yeah, okay. Just wanted to know what Mr. Han wanted," Hanni rambled.

"Sure, you did," Danielle said.

Hanni just glared at her as she kept looking for Minji. They didn't talk about what almost happened last night at Minji's house. Not that they were avoiding each other, but the only class they had was music, and today was a really bad day. Mr, Han was snapping at everyone for every little mistake. Apparently when concert time approaches, Mr. Han gets all worked up and wants everything to be perfect. No one dared to make a mistake, so that meant Hanni and Minji had to pay attention to their instrument playing. They barely had time to glance at each other.

"There's your girlfriend, Pham unnie," Haerin teased when Minji started to make her way towards them.

Hanni kicked her under the table, but smiled when Minji sat down next to her. "Hey," she greeted exhausted.

"Shit, you look like hell," Haerin commented as she tossed her a brown lunch bag.

"Thanks, Haerin," Minji said sarcastically and opened her lunch.

"Hey, I'm making your lunch until you get your off campus lunch privileges back, so be nice."

Minji rolled her eyes and started eating her sandwich. She could feel Hanni looking at her and her stomach filled with butterflies.

"So what did Mr. Han want?" Hanni asked.

"Well, he basically told me that if I didn't learn all of the songs until the concert, he'd fail me."

"What? He can't do that."

Minji couldn't help but smile. Worried Hanni was a very cute Hanni. And the fact that Hanni was worrying about her made the butterflies flutter even more.

"It's alright, I mean, I pretty much know all the songs. There are just a few that I need to go over," she assured her.

"But we've been only working for one day."
