TWO HOURS LATER

I had no idea that such a party would be so boring. Normally the one's Eunmi dragged me to would always be fun, but here, I'm sat drinking like a loser.

I suppose it was just one bad party, that Niki motherfucker agitated me so much that I couldn't enjoy myself any further.

I stepped outside for like the third time, the guy welcoming people in probably was too familiar with my face by now.

But anyways, I stood outside, it was quite chilly, and rather late too. I'm probably not going to go to the next party Eunmi invites me to unless I actually have friends here, because this is just a waste of my time.

I opened my shoulder bag, a little hazy due to the alcohol, but I managed, and inside, it sort of took me aback, but I finally remembered that I left the envelope to my penpal in here.

"Oops." I laughed to myself, closing it back up.

I rubbed my arms, the wind was blowing a little more than I'd like it to, if I could, I'd walk home right now, but first of all; my sister was still in there somewhere, and second of all, I had no idea where the hell I was.

But fortunately for me, Eunmi came flying out of the door, along with Niki following behind her with her little boy friend.

"Ah, Eunmi, you're so pretty." Seonho said, holding Eunmi's cheeks as she giggled like an absolute idiot.

"Oh stop it Seonho~ everybody knows my sister is the prettier one. She's such a loser though, always writing to this penpal of hers." She giggled childishly, then turned to look at me, "Oops! She's right there, shhhh."

Niki turned his head directly to Eunmi as she mentioned my penpal, then he glanced over at me, observing my face and then my outfit for a brief second. He cleared his throat and proceeded to look at his car keys swinging in his hands.

"No, you are! You are prettiest." Seonho and Eunmi turned into the most obnoxious couple ever after alcohol, and I just gave a sigh, having enough of this and dragging Eunmi off Seonho by her arm.

"Jesus, Eunmi, can you relax." I rolled my eyes as Niki gave a low chuckle.

The four of us walked towards Niki's car, and I have no idea why I even got in, this guy probably could've kidnapped me or something like that, who knows, but I still got in anyways.

Even worse, I was forced to sit in the passenger's seat, only because Eunmi and Seonho wanted to continue their little drunken lovey-dovey couple antics in the backseat.

I leant my head on the headrest, giving a quiet groan as I closed my eyes. My mother is going to beat my ass over this lame ass party. Seriously, I knew I shouldn't of came.

Mid drive, I turned my head to look at Niki. We stopped at a red light, and he looked over at me, then at the front, and then turned his head straight away towards me again.

He swallowed hard, staring into my eyes as I did the same.

"What?" His voice was still cold and rude as fuck, I rolled my eyes, looking forward.

"I need to post a letter, so drop me off somewhere where I can post one." I opened my bag again, taking out the letter and holding it in my hands, on my lap.

Niki glanced at me, and then the letter, he read the name on the front of the letter, and then looked back at the front, driving off as the light turned green.

Eunmi and Seonho seemed to be literally off planet earth right now, I had no idea what the two were talking about - matter of fact - doing behind me, but I don't even want to know.

Niki suddenly held his hand out, driving with one hand. I looked at him, confused as to what he wanted.

"Uh, what. I can't deduce what you want with your hand." I scoffed, shaking my head in disbelief at his pure arrogance.

"The letter." Niki simply stated, and I shot my head to look back at him.

"Are you kidding me? Hell no-" I furrowed my brows, the audacity of this guy?

"I'll post it for you, it'll save me time driving around with drunken maniacs in the backseat." He still had his hand held out, and I was reluctant at first, staring at him with suspicion.

Who knows what he might do with my letter, read it? Throw it away? I don't know what his intentions were, or even if he had intentions, but this letter was to my penpal and my penpal solely.

"As if I'd trust you with something important." I scoffed, and Niki turned his head to look at me, giving a smirk before looking back at the front.

"What? To your boyfriend?" He inquired, and I rolled my eyes.

"Believe it or not, my penpal." I responded, he leant one hand behind his head, resting it on his neck.
