I make my way to the school gate quickly buttoning up my blazer, covering the coffee stain. I throw away my empty cup and finally walk into the school. I walk up two flights of stairs and turn right into a hallway walking to my class. I always get to my class early before everyone else so that it's dark and silent in the class. I take my seat at the back, near the window, and pull out my sketchbook.

The bell rings and Yena comes into class and sits beside me. "Hey." she says and snatched my sketchbook out of my hands. She's one of my only friends but she's rude. She examines the drawing carefully and looks at me. "He's handsome, who is it?" she asks, smiling at me while pointing to the biggest drawing on the page.

"Just someone I know." I answer, looking down and fiddling with my pen. I feel her eyes burning a hole through me and I look up to her side eyeing me.

"You? Out of all people? Are friends with someone this handsome?" she scoffs and throws my sketchbook back at me. I lean back and stare at the sketchbook before flipping to the page I was previously drawing on. Soon enough the teacher walks in and class starts.

"Hey, are you even listening?!" Yena yells at me, finally snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Oh sorry. What were you saying?" I ask, looking up at the angry girl while she rolls her eyes.

"Are you deaf?" She scoffs before continuing; "I said did you see the new hot guys? The 7 of them over there." she says, pointing at a table behind us with her fork. I look behind me and see 7 different colored-haired boys.

"No? Who are they?" I ask, turning back to look at Yena while she's staring at them.

"I don't know but they're already popular when they've just arrived here. And they're hot." she laughs, almost drooling on herself.

I secretly make a disgusted face before replying; "All the mean people are popular." I say, when she cocks her head at me while she rolls her eyes before finally finishing her food.

As I walk out of school, I receive a text message from an unknown number. Automatically knowing that it's Chan, I search for the address on google maps and follow it. Not long after, I arrive at a two-story white house with lots of windows. I walk up the pathway at the front and knock on the black door in front of me. Almost automatically, I hear someone scream "Someone answer that!" and a "I got it!" not long after. The door opens to a Chan with wet hair, instantly we both smile at each other.

"Hi Y/N! Come in!" he says, moving behind the door, leaving me space to come in. As I walk in, I see a purple-haired boy sitting on the couch and a black-haired boy next to him. I turn and look up at Chan beside me who closes the door.

"You really weren't kidding when you said you lived with seven other boys..." I sigh, looking at the absolute mess on the floor, as well as in the kitchen. Chan laughs and rubs the back of his neck, examining the mess in front of him.

"Han, how many times do I have to say to clean up your mess!" he yells and the black-haired boy sitting on the couch turns behind him, eyes going wide when he sees me. He immediately stands up and bows to me.

"Hello!" he says and the purpled-haired boy looks at me and stands up and bows as well.

"Lee know, how many times do I have to say to clean up the mess in the kitchen..." Chan says again, scolding them just like how a parent would scold their child. He turns to me and laughs. "Sorry..." I giggle while he pulls out his phone and sends a short text. Just then, I hear multiple people. Five familiar boys emerge from the hallway and start walking down the stairs, immediately bowing and greeting me once they see me. All seven boys get in a line just as they are instructed to do so by Chan who stands beside me.

"This is Lee Know, Han, Changbin, Felix, Jeongin, Hyunjin, and Seungmin. And guys, this is Y/N." Chan introduces me and I bow to them, smiling.

"Hello! You're that girl from the coffee shop!" the pink-haired boy named Jeongin runs up to me, eyes sparkling and I smile back at him.

"How did you know?" I ask him while nodding.

"Yesterday was my first day and I made the toast you got! Did you like it?!" he asks, his eyebrows shooting up and his eyes sparkling.

I giggle at his question. "Yes, I loved it!" I reply and Jeongin leads me to the couch where I get asked millions of questions by the seven boys, Chan just watching and listening.

"Did you know Chan has never brought a girl over? You're the only one." Felix laughs, looking at the older as he looks down, laughing in defeat.

"I thought he would kidnap me." I laugh and they all look at me.

"He could still do that, he's weird." Lee know says glaring at Chan while everyone else laughs.

"Y/N." Chan says to me, grabbing my attention immediately. "I won't be working in the morning anymore since I'm going to a new school." He adds on, making eye contact with me.

"Yeah! He's finally going to be going to the same school as the rest of us!" Jeongin excitedly claps while turning to me.

"I think it's your school too. They all have the same uniform." Chan says, smiling at me. Everyone else immediately snaps their head toward me, eyes wide.

"Stalker much..." I say to Chan, laughing.

"It's fate." He says, his eyes making moon-crescents. I turn around, looking a little flushed at the sudden flirting.

"You should sit at our table." Hyunjin suggests, looking at me with an unbothered expression.

"I suppose so, but only for a few days. I'm sitting with someone currently." I say, smiling sadly while thinking about Yena.

"Oh! Give me a second, I'll be back!" Chan says before getting up and running upstairs. Not long after, he returns with a gift bag in hand. He walks up to me and hands me the bag. "It's the shirt I owe you." He says smiling.

"Thank you." I say, smiling at him. Suddenly I freeze and quickly check the time. "Oh my God, I have to go!" I push my phone back into my skirt pocket and stand up quickly. "Thank you again Chan! See you tomorrow morning- Oh, I mean at school I guess." I yell while running out of the door and shutting it behind me.

I run all the way home and pause in front of my house. I quietly open the door and close it behind me. I turn around just to see my father there, arms crossed. But before I can explain or apologize, I feel my cheek stinging and I fall back against the door with a thud. "Where the hell were you?! You tried to run away huh?!" He says, immediately jumping to conclusions.

I stand up and lower my head, shaking it. My father grabs the bag from my hands and looks at it. "And what is this?!" He screams at me before throwing it to the side, making the box fall out onto the floor.

"It's school supplies." I lie, bringing my head back down after looking at the bag.

"Get out of my sight!" My father screams at me, pointing to my bedroom. I run to the bag, pick it up and run to my bedroom, shutting the door behind me. I lean against the door and slide down it before looking at the bag in my hands.

I open the bag and pull out the box, tossing the bag to the side. The bottom of the box is green and the top is white, I take off the top of the box and place it beside me. I take out the shirt and unfold it to see a beautiful dress shirt with shiny pearls around the collar of the shirt. It looks very expensive... Not a single loose threat in sight, something I'm not used to.
