"So Sooyun. What have you been doing since I've been gone?" Niki asked, sipping his juice. "I'm still into photography and journaling. But lately I've taken a new interest." Sooyun replied. "Yeah? What is it?" Niki asked. "Drawing. You should let me draw you." Sooyun said. "I'd love for you to draw me." Niki smiled. 'He's so charming I'm going to faint.' Sooyun thought.

"Hey guys." Danielle said, sitting across from them. "Hey Dani." Sooyun greeted. Niki waved. "He's still only talkative with you huh? Tsk tsk." Danielle said. "I'm special like that." Sooyun said pridefully. Niki raised a brow and chuckled a bit.

"What have you been up to Kiki?" Sooyun asked. "Nothing much. Just studying." Niki replied. "I decided to move in with my sister here." "What made you want to come back to suddenly? Before you finished your studies in Busan?" Sooyun asked. Niki looked at her.

Sooyun waited for him to answer. Niki just took another sip of his juice.

"Sup." Jungwon said, sitting next to Danielle. Danielle made a disgusted face and scooted over. "How long are y'all going to keep this little act up?" Sunoo asked, sitting between the two. "What act?" Jungwon asked. "You two like each other. Admit it!" Sunoo said. "Ew!" Danielle and Jungwon said in unison.

"They still haven't grown out of that?" Niki asked. Sooyun shook her head, "it got worse honestly." She chuckled. Niki chuckled as well. Sooyun sipped her juice and looked out of the window. "You're not as optimistic as I remember." Niki said, "Why is that?" "I guess I just grew up. I don't know." Sooyun shrugged.

"Hey Sooyun." Leehan smiled, "wanna sit with me today?" "I'm catching up with a friend." Sooyun said. Leehan looked at Niki. "You must be Niki." He said. Niki nodded. "Sooyun was right. You are quiet. I'm Leehan, Sooyuns friend." Leehan extended his hand and Niki furrowed his eyebrows a bit.

He shook Leehans hand, "Niki." "Sooyun talked about you a lot in year 10. So it's really nice to meet you." Leehan said. Niki just nodded again.

-

After lunch, Niki caught up with Jungwon. "How long has Sooyun known that Leehan guy?" He asked. "For about 3 years now. They met not too long after you moved. Why?" Jungwon replied. "Do they like each other?" Niki asked. Jungwon looked at him, "who's asking?" "Me." Niki replied.

"Are you jealous?" Jungwon asked raising a brow. "I'm just curious, not jealous. I mean Sooyun is my friend and I just wanna know the things I missed out on." Niki said. Jungwon nodded, "Well he likes Sooyun but Sooyun doesn't like him. Mainly because she liked someone else when he confessed."

"Who did she like? Does she still like them?" Niki asked. Jungwon nodded. "Do I know him?" Niki asked. Jungwon nodded. Niki placed his hand on his chin, "Who could it be?" He thought out loud, walking to his next class.

"He's so dense." Jungwon said.

"Who?" Danielle asked. "Ah!" Jungwon panicked, "you scared me!" "Wuss." Danielle teased. Jungwon rolled his eyes. "Do you have the notes for Mr. Chen?" Danielle asked. "Yeah." Jungwon replied, taking the notes out of his bag. "Thanks." Danielle smiled, running to her next class.

Jungwon rolled his eyes and went to class as well.

"Kiki!" Sooyun said excitedly, as Niki walked in the classroom. Her classmates stared at her like she was the weirdest creature they had ever seen. Sooyun chuckled and apologized before patting the seat next to her. Niki chuckled and sat next to her.

"Thank god you're here. Then class is so boring." Sooyun whined, laying her head down on the desk. Niki laid down as well and stared at her. "What?" Sooyun asked. "Do you have a crush on anyone?" Niki asked suddenly. Sooyuns face turned beat red.

Niki raised an eyebrow, "So Jungwon wasn't messing with me? Tell me who it is. I'm curious now." He said, sitting up. "I don't have a crush on anyone." Sooyun replied. "Oh okay." Niki said. 'Still as blind as Adrien Agreste.' Sooyun thought.

Danielle sat at her desk and tapped her pencil on her desk. She looked out of the window and saw Jungwon walking by... with a girl.

A girl?!

She shifted in her seat to get a clearer view and watched them. "Ms. Marsh." The teacher scolded. Danielle sighed and went back to working.

"Hey Dani." Jungwon smiled, running up to her. "Hey." Danielle replied. "What's wrong?" Jungwon asked. "Nothing." Danielle replied. "It's something." Jungwon said. Danielle looked at him, "Do you like anyone?" "No." Jungwon replied. Danielle's small smile faded completely.

"No one at all?" She asked. Jungwon shook his head. "Alright." She mumbled. "Why?" Jungwon asked. "I.." Danielle looked at him. Jungwon tilted his head. "I saw you and some girl from class 9 talking that's all. You two looked cute." Danielle said.

"Minji? She's just a classmate I'm helping." Jungwon said. Danielle nodded, "Do you think she's pretty?" "Yeah but she's not my type." Jungwon replied. "Who's your type?" Danielle asked. "What are you 21 questions?" Jungwon asked, raising a brow.

Danielle sighed, "I'm going to class." "Oh wait! I got you a lollipop!" Jungwon said, handing her a lollipop from his pocket. Danielle looked at him, "I'm already eating one." Jungwon took the lollipop from her mouth and put it in his, "Now you can eat this one." He said. Danielle stared at him as butterflies erupted in her stomach.

Jungwon handed her the lollipop and smiled before going to his next class.

Danielle stood in the middle of the hallway, dumbfounded. "Did he just..." she turned around to say something but he was already gone.

She looked at the lollipop in her hand and smiled a bit.

Niki waited outside of the school for Sooyun while listening to music. "Hey Kiki! Ready to walk home?" She asked, running up to him. "I have a question." Niki said. "What's up?" Sooyun replied. Before Niki could speak, Leehan appeared.

"Hey Sooyun!" He smiled. "Oh hey Leehan! What's up?" She asked. Niki furrowed his eyebrows. "Wanna go out for dinner tonight?" Leehan asked. "She's busy." Niki replied, hugging Sooyuns waist. Sooyun turned beat red. Leehan looked Niki up and down, "Oh okay. See ya Sooyun!" Sooyun waved goodbye.

Once Leehan left, she turned to Niki. "What was that?" She asked. "It's true. You're busy. You're hanging out with me." Niki said. Before Sooyun could even speak, Niki grabbed her wrist and they began walking to the bus stop.
