EXO - undercover

3 - Introduction and Cookies

Okay, don't panic. Start from the beginning, Choon Hee. I took a deep breath and thought about it logically:

1) I had planned this for such a long time

2) My best friend who was supposed to go with me hadn't been able to, but I went because I had promised

3) I really needed this break after the accident with my now dead parents, my best friend and after all the hard work I had done until now – I was a straight A-student and had been offered a lot of scholarships. But I needed a break from my hectic life

4) Boys turn up and say they also have to be here

5) There were two options now: go home and return to your hectic life or stay with these boys and make the best out of it.

I must have looked like an idiot as I was standing there pondering about what to do as I weighted the options and the cons and pros that came with each of thembn.

In the end, I looked up at their expecting faces and sighed. I hoped I wouldn't regret this

"Okay, I have decided to stay."

Their faces broke into smiles and the one with the slightly bigger ears punched the air, all of them probably relieved because I didn't cause any problems.

"I guess we have to introduce ourselves, I'm Kai" the tallest guy with the bronze skin said and gave me a gorgeous smirk. I nodded.

"I'm Chanyeol – Argh, get off me, Baekhyun!" the guy with the cute ears said while struggling with Baekhyun who had hopped up on his back.

The boy with the blonde hair and sharp jaw laughed at them, clapping his hands.

"Don't laugh, Sehun, get off me, Baek. Not fair, why do I have to give you a piggy ride, you are such a child", Chanyeol complained, but Baek stayed where he was. Chanyeol shot a glance towards Sehun who nodded with a twinkle in his eyes. With the help of Sehun, they threw Baekhyun down on the sand.

"Kkaebsong. You are such killjoys" He got up and brushed the sand of his clothes. "I'm Baekhyun" he said to me, still smiling. I nodded, not knowing what else to do. "Oh, and I'm Sehun" the blonde-haired one said after high-fiving Chanyeol for throwing Baekhyun down on the sand.

Then the last boy stepped a bit forward and muttered: "My name is D.O.". He briefly made eye contact with me, and I couldn't help but notice how big and intense his eyes were. Then he looked down again, and I nodded politely.

"Ehm, my name is Choon Hee", I said to them awkwardly. Before they could do or say anything else, I turned around and began to walk back to my hut. It wasn't often I talked to boys – especially because I focused so much on studying – let alone 5 of them at once. I didn't care if it was rude, I needed to go.

*****

I stretched my back and rolled her neck, hearing the small satisfying clicks. I surveyed the room and smiled at how it looked now. The place had been quite dusty so I had cleaned a bit and then rearranged the furniture to make the rooms look bigger and more comfortable. I couldn't cope with for example my bedroom (where I spent most of my time) or in this case: this hut to be messy or unorganized. I just couldn't not clean and organize it.

I glanced out of the window and was shocked to realize it was a lot darker outside than it had been before. My wristwatch told me I had used about 4 hours on cleaning the hut. Wow, I hadn't even realized. When my stomach growled I remembered that I hadn't eaten anything either.

A smile lit up my face and I hurried over to my duffel bag, which sat on the kitchen table. I opened the zipper and immediately the scent of homemade goods hit me. I eagerly opened the large box and took out three homemade Twix-cookies, which I devoured in a few minutes. Wow, they were really delicious. Even though I made them in a hurry they still turned out great.

I put the box inside the bag again, not wanting to eat all of it at once even though I probably had enough baked goods for a big family. Nah, I thought and took a few more before resolutely closing the bag. I had to keep them for later when I was craving something sweet and didn't feel like baking something.

A thought occurred to me. I was always told to be nice to my neighbors and whenever I had made too much of anything or just made something really delicious I would give a plate of it to my neighbors.

I bit my lips. My neighbors had never consisted of boys, especially not ones around my age. But manners and politeness were still important and... I was going to see them around if I liked it or not because we were going to be here together for a month. Although I couldn't help but think that they weren't the types to stay cooped up inside a hut in the middle of nature instead of going to the town and stuff.

I sighed, got a plate, and filled it with lots of cookies and small rice cakes. Then I opened the door and went towards their hut, which was bigger than the one, in which I was staying. I hesitated a few seconds before I knocked on the door.

No answer.

I knocked again.

No answer.

I listened closely but couldn't hear anything from inside the house. Maybe they went to the nearby town?

"D.O.! Go open the door – you are closest to it", someone shouted from inside. Sounded like Sehun.

"But I'm changing my clothes right now!" he shouted in reply.

"Don't be such a girl, D.O., and just hurry up", Baekhyun said. D.O. grumbled something unintelligible. A few seconds passed before I heard footsteps approach the door.
"Who is it?"

"Ehm, Choon Hee"

The door opened and from looking at D.O. I knew that he had been sleeping. Oh, that's probably why they had been so quiet all day. His hair was all messy and he rubbed his eyes. When he saw me, he looked a bit taken aback.

"Uhm, can I help you?" he asked politely, but for some reason didn't look directly into my eyes.

I held the plate out for him to take. Curiously he took it.

"I baked these before coming here and I thought I would give some of them to you", I explained. Then I quickly bowed my head and was about to turn around to leave.

Before I could step forward a hand gently grabbed my arm. "I guess... thank you?" D.O. said and looked me in the eye. Once again I was struck with how intense his eyes were.

Then Chanyeol appeared in the doorway.

"What is taking so lon- Oh, hey Choon Hee, what's u- is that COOKIES?!" his eyes widened.

Sehun popped up. "Did someone say cookies? Homemade?"

I couldn't help but chuckle at their eagerness. "There are lots of cookies and cakes for all of you – all homemade. Happy eating!"

I went back to my hut with a smile on my face.
