Yoora's POV
"This will be my first trip with you, and I am quite excited. We're going to have a great time together." He said, his fingers entwined with mine.

"But Woohyun Sunbae, I'm not so sure, because my father isn't the sort to let me go on vacations."

"SUNBAE? Ahhh!! You have got to be kidding me, I'm your boyfriend now you can call me Oppa" He grins. "And, please, you must come; just ask your father; perhaps he will change his mind."

I chuckle, "Arasso Oppa. My mother would agree, but I have my doubts about my father."

He stops walking and takes my hands in his, "Just try for me. Besides, it'll be our first trip together, and I want to spend more time with you."

"All right, let me see what I can do," I give in to his gesture and genuine look.

"Thank you," he says, beaming and hugging me.

"Can I ask you a question, by the way?"

"Of course, I can even do a rapid fire round right now, I am so happy." He laughs and I laugh along with him.

"My parents haven't even said yes" I shake my head, "You'll find a way I know" He winks at me. "So what did you want to ask about?"

"How come Hoya doesn't live with his parents?"

"When we first formed the band, we had only six members; after watching us perform, he decided to join us; Hoya was the last to join; and he moved to Seoul two years ago to follow his passion for music." Woohyun explained.

"Oh!! So, who does he live with now?"

"He stays at Dongwoo's place; they've known each other since they were kids. They belong to the same hometown." He stated this while smiling and looked at me.

"Does he get to see his parents on a regular basis?" I inquire.

"Not really; his parents are too busy managing the hotel, and Hoya is too busy with school, practise, and concerts."

"That's sad, I have seen how drenched Jia gets staying away from her parents, and Hoya must also feel the same, one way or the other."

"That's why we always invite him over to our houses to make him feel at home, and don't even get me started on his shopping addiction, which we have to put up with simply to see him happy."

"Yeah I heard about it" I chuckle.

Authors POV
Yoora and Woohyun are walking ahead of Myungsoo and Jia. They're extremely slow, or they certainly want some alone time. Myungsoo and Jia have gone on a few casual dates in the past, and each time she sees him, he brings her new reasons to admire him, not just because he is famous and handsome, but also because he is more than a handsome face. Being with him makes Jia feel like it is the best thing that has ever happened to her. However she knows that if she wasn't careful she might risk everything like she was about to today.

"Jia?" calls Myungsoo, who has been unusually quiet since the incident in the canteen, and Jia has noticed it but can't put her finger on it. Her attention shifts from the road to Myungsoo as she hums.

"Ummm..." He stutters his words, and she looks at him puzzled; he has never stuttered before, and he is behaving strangely timid, and this is new.

Myungsoo has been thinking about his feelings for Jia since the incident in the canteen. He knows he needs to reveal his feelings to Jia soon, but he just can't gather the guts. But today's encounter taught him that he, too, should be brave like Woohyun, because he couldn't be the wimp who let go of his crush.

She inquires, "Yeah, what is it?"

"Ummm do like our songs?" He asked, mentally slapping himself for asking one of the obvious questions.

"Of course, Stupid, I like your tunes." She laughs out loud. After that, he laughed and rubbed the back of his neck.

They arrived outside Yoora's house after a few more random conversations, and they waited for them for a while.

"Ahhh!! You're all so slow "Leaning against the gate and checking his watch, Myungsoo remarks.

"So what, you jealous?" Woohyun smirked leaning his head on Yoora's shoulder.

"Yeah right!!" Myungsoo reacted sarcastically, but he meant it and that surprised him as well.

What Myungsoo said why does it feel like he really mean it. Gosh! This feeling I must forget about him.* Yoora thought.

"It's getting late we better be going" Yoora said looking towards Jia. "I'll call you tonight" Woohyun said slowly leaving Yoora's hand and kissed her forehead.

Yoora happily leaned closer; a smile appeared on her face; and Myungsoo looks away, again, he doesn't know why he his acting so strange.

"I'll make an effort to persuade my parents." Woohyun nods his head.

"Bye Myungsoo," she said as she turned to face me.

"Bye!! We will pick you girls up around 1:00 k." Myungsoo informs waving at Jia.

"Okay bye, bye cya tomorrow" Jia beams.

Myungsoo's POV
Me and Woohyun headed back home but something kept bothering me, as the days passed by I'm starting to get more confused between Jia and Yoora. I've noticed that Yoora constantly refers to me as Myungsoo, whilst Jia refers to me as L. However, I have expected Jia to refer to me as Myungsoo, but since I learned that she was my mystery girl, she has started referring to me as L rather than Myungsoo. Why is it always Yoora who calls me Myungsoo? Why? Is Yoora My Mystery Girl? This is very puzzling. That's not possible, and Jia can't possibly lie to me. But why does seeing Yoora with Woohyun bother me?

Woohyun began. "Ah!! Isn't Yoora a wonderful girl? It's still hard to believe she didn't reject my proposal. Gosh!! She's such a sweetheart; she's preety and adorable, and she's always willing to lend a helping hand to everybody." He gave a warm smile. "I'm head over heels for her." He grins. "Yeah!! You are extremely fortunate!! You are quite lucky.

"Yeah!! She is!! Lucky you got the one you like." He agreed with a sheepish grin, how is wish to wipe that off. What am I saying?

I nudged his head and said, "Stop smiling like an idiot."

"I can't help myself, I've had a crush on her for so long man, it still feels like a dream, I'm whipped guy" He turned to me still smiling from ear to ear.

"What about you, by the way? Have you told Jia about your feelings or not?"

"Oh!! So, how did you find out about that? I mean, I haven't told anyone yet? You mentioned that at the canteen as well."

"It's pointless to attempt to hide, dude; we've known each other for a long time. It's very dumb of you to believe you can keep it hidden from us." He stated his case.

"Really? I'm curious if she is aware "I stated.

Woohyun nudges my head, "How will she know if you don't confess it to her, phabo (Stupid)?"

"Has anyone else heard of it?"

He said nothing but shrug his shoulders.

Attempt one failed, but I guess today wasn't meant to be THE day, besides I better confess her in a romantic way, rather than somewhere on the streets. Maybe I'll plan during the trip.
