A few days later, Priya and Hartley made their way to Dae, Q, and Minho's dorm, as they usually did before Hartley stopped last week. They opened the door with Hartley's spare key for their room. Priya went to look for Q and Kitty, while Hartley went to look for either Dae or Minho. Her eyes scanned the room, not finding her boyfriend anywhere. Her thoughts weren't hidden enough for the girl.

"He's been sleeping in the library, if you're wondering." Dae said, coming out of his room, fixing his tie.

"What? Why would he-"

"You two haven't spoken to each other in class, lunch, and after school. He's been missing you like crazy, and you haven't been picking up your phone. You basically've been M.I.A for a week."

"I didn't go M.I.A, I've been with Devyn and Priya." She protested, not meeting Dae's eyes.

He sighed as the door opened and closed, someone walking in. "They weren't in their dorm."

Hartley's breath hitched at the back of her throat. Minho looked in the kitchen and saw his girlfriend sitting at the table.

He then speed-walks over to her, bringher her into his arms. One stroaking her hair, softly. "Jesus, Hartley. Are you safe? Are you hurt?" Hartley shook her head as Minho inspected her face to see if she was okay. "Don't ever do that again. I'll kill you if you do."

Hartley just smiled and kissed her boyfriend's cheek. Q then coughs, making the two seperate from each other. "Where's my hug?" She laughed and walked over to Q, hugging him.

Devyn and Lia start making their way to class.

"What was with you and leaving Outdoor's club meeting last week? You seemed upset."

"It's just another thing between me and Minho. You know how we are."

"What did he do? Do I have to beat someone's ass?"

Hartley laughed at how protective her friend is being. "No, don't beat anyone's ass. We just had a tiny argument. That's all."

Devyn nodded slowly. "If it's okay with me asking, why were you guys arguing?"

Hartley sighed before responding. "He wants me to stay away from Dae, but Dae and I... I don't know. It's like- we're connecting with each other and I really like talking with him. I never ment to hurt Minho, but I also want to have more friends of my own. Sure, you, Lia and Priya are amazing friends, but I also need someone else. Dae and I have been helping each other. I help him with Kitty, and he helps me with Minho."

Devyn smirked. "Hartley, you're crushing on Dae! Minho's jealous."

What! No, I'm not crushing on him. He's Minho's best friend and Kitty's boyfriend. I can't be crushing on him."

Devyn just smiled at the girl. "Hart, long story short, you like Dae, and we really need to get to English. We're gonna be late." He said, throwing away his empty coffee cup and pulling Hartley with him.

"Wait, like really late?!"

"Super late!"
