"Look, Eunha, I swear to god, if you embarrass yourself with him again, it's the end," Eunji huffed dramatically, pushing through the crowded university gates with a side-eye aimed directly at her.

Eunha groaned, tugging her hoodie up a little higher.

"Relax, it's not like I plan to embarrass myself." Eunha muttered.

The air was cool, but her face was already heating up just thinking about the possibility of running into him again.

Eunji scoffed. "You don't plan it, but it happens. I'm still not over the coffee incident."

"Neither is she," Hana chimed in, adjusting the strap of her bag as she strolled beside them, barely containing a grin. "But honestly, who spills coffee all over a guy?"

Eunha shot her a glare. "Thanks for the reminder."

"Just saying," Hana giggled, clearly enjoying the teasing.

As they approached the entrance to one of the university buildings, someone suddenly bumped hard into Eunha's shoulder, almost knocking her over.

"Hey!" Eunha yelped, regaining her balance. She turned around to see a tall girl with long hair and an annoyed expression on her face.

"Oh, great," Eunha muttered under her breath as she locked eyes with the girl, Eunseo, the pick me girl who was with her crush last time.

"Watch where you're going," Eunseo snapped.

"I was watching," Eunha shot back. She wasn't in the mood to deal with anyone's attitude, especially not Eunseo's. "Maybe you should try not walking into people next time."

Eunseo scoffed, stepping closer to Eunha, clearly not liking her tone. "Who do you think you are?"

"Someone who doesn't have time for this." Eunha retorted, squaring her shoulders. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm kind of in a hurry."

"Excuse you?" Eunseo snapped, her voice getting louder. "You think you can just walk away after—"

Eunha's temper flared hotter. "I didn't bump into you. You bumped into me."

"Are you serious right now?" Eunseo scoffed, stepping even closer, her face twisted in annoyance. "You've got a lot of nerve—"

"Eunha, let's just go," Eunji whispered from beside her, tugging lightly on her arm, but Eunha wasn't about to walk away from this.

"No," Eunha snapped, pulling her arm free. "She's being ridiculous! She ran into me and now she's acting like I'm the one who did something wrong."

Eunseo scoffed loudly. "Oh, please, don't act like you're innocent."

That was it. Eunha could feel the anger boiling over. Her fists clenched at her sides, her nails digging into her palms as she took a step forward. "If you don't shut up, I swear—"

"What are you gonna do, huh?" Eunseo scoffed, folding her arms.

Eunha's didn't loose one second as she lunged for Eunseo, ready to yank her by the hair. But before she could reach her, a strong hand grabbed her waist, pulling her back. She blinked, barely registering who it was, her focus still on Eunseo's annoying smirk.

"Let go of me!" Eunha shouted, wriggling in his grip, trying to break free. She didn't care who it was; she just needed to get to her.

But then, that sickly sweet voice of Eunseo's cut through the air. "Oppa, she's acting so crazy! I didn't even do anything," she said, batting her eyes as if she wasn't the one who'd started it. She stepped closer to Niki, trying to look all innocent.

Eunha hadn't even realized it was her crush holding her back, too focused on the annoying girl in front of her.

"Eunha, stop." he said, his voice calm but firm as he kept her from lunging again. "You're not doing this."

Eunha's hands clenched into fists, ready to swing, but Niki's grip on her waist stayed firm yet gentle, holding her in place. She twisted a little, trying to get free. "Let go of me. I'm not gonna hit her, okay?" she muttered, her voice shaky with anger. "I'm stopping, I swear."

Niki hesitated, looking down at her, unsure. "Are you sure?"

"Yes!" Eunha snapped, though her chest was still heaving from the rage, eyes never leaving Eunseo. "I'm done. I'm calm. I'm not gonna hit her."

Finally, Niki sighed and released his grip on Eunha's waist. "Alright, alright, but seriously, don't do anything stupid."

Eunha stood still for a beat, nodding as if she'd really calmed down. "Okay, okay, I won't." she said, her voice quieter, but her chest was still rising and falling like she was barely keeping it together.

But then, just as Niki turned his attention away, Eunha shot forward, grabbing Eunseo's hair in one quick motion. "That's for bumping into me!" she shouted.

"Eunha, no!" Eunji gasped, her hand flying to her mouth as she watched in shock. "Oh my God, she's actually doing it!"

"Oh, she's dead." Hana whispered, wide-eyed, grabbing Eunji's arm. "I thought she was done."

"But Hana, how does he know her name?" Eunji asked.

"Honestly, I have no idea," she replied, glancing back at the scene. "It's kinda weird though, right?"

Behind them, Niki's friends were watching the whole scene unfold, eyes wide with amusement.

"OHHHHHHHH!" Heeseung practically howled, doubling over with laughter. "She did it! She actually did it!"

"Bro, she's not playing around!" Jay exclaimed, slapping Sunghoon's arm as they all watched the chaos unfold. "She's gonna kill her."

"She deserves it." Sunoo said, and all the boys nodded their heads in affirmation.

Eunseo yelped, hands flailing as she tried to escape Eunha's grip, but she had her good, her fist tangled in Eunseo's long hair.

"OMG! Eunha!" Niki's voice rang out, but she wasn't listening anymore.
