Quinn and Junie sat in Ada's navy blue and gold room, nowhere near her friend's rooms. Junie was sprawled out on the oversized bed while Quinn and Ada sat on the couch facing the bed. Ada sat on the sofa while Quinn lay down, placing her legs over Ada's lap. Quincy and Adora were very touchy with each other, a sign of their physical-touch love languages, while Junie was happy to have a hug maybe once a year. 

"So he just stared into your soul and then was mean?" Quinn asked. Junie had replayed the scene from earlier for her friends, immediately going to them to complain. Juno turned onto her side to face the other two girls and nodded.

"Huh...weird." Adora said, making a puzzled face, "What do you think that was about?" Juno frowned and lay back down on her back, staring at the ceiling in deep thought. It was silent for a moment while all of her emotions and thoughts rushed back into her head. She thought back on the moment he walked away from her and butterflies formed in her stomach and a heat began to come to her face. 

"Juno, your silence is telling me something I feel like it shouldn't be telling me." Adora spoke with a growing smile. Junie's reddening face was becoming apparent to her friend. "You like him you bitch!" 

Quincy sat up from her spot on the couch faster than lightning, "Of course you do!" In return, Junie sat up fast, giving both of the smiling girls a look, which only egged the two girls on to continue to tease. 

The trio's dynamic was becoming glaringly obvious to the couple listening to the groups conversation. Yes Hongjoong and Yeosang were not far from Adora's room, and when the conversation about Junie's run in with Seonghwa began, the two couldn't help but tune in (especially because Seonghwa had not said a word and wouldn't let anyone into his thoughts for the last 3 hours.)

The conversation (and listeners) continued like this only for a short time before the three girls decided it was time to get some rest after their wild day. Ada bid the girls a sweet 'goodbye' and Junie and Quinn left together. It was a short while however before them too had to separate from each other and find their rooms on their own. 

The night was quiet.

A gentle, repetitive knock stirred Adora awake. She sighed and checked the time, 8:00 a.m. Ada swung her feet over the edge of the bed. She took just a second to try and brush through her hair with her fingers before walking to the door.

"What do you want?" She said, pulling the door open fast with a frown, expecting to see Juno or Quincy in front of her. But it was neither of her friends. No, instead, it was the singer of last night's dinner. The handsome man that got her attention, Jongho.  He made a surprised, taken aback face and looked at her, unsure of what to say. 

"Oh my god I am so sorry!" She spoke quickly, her frowning face turning into one of embarrassment. "I thought you were one of my friends!"

Jongho, who was at first majorly confused, now smiled sweetly. It was a simple mistake that he could completely understand. "Oh don't worry about it! I understand the surprise!" He spoke softly, keeping his smile on his face. 

Ada gave an apologetic look and cocked her head to the side. She fixed her eyes on his once again, "Really though, I shouldn't have reacted that way at all, I'm so sorry!" 

Jongho returned her gaze, staring into her eyes while she spoke. He noticed the way she rambled on and his smile grew bigger. He let her ramble for just another moment and cut her off, "Really, it's alright sweetheart. I just stopped by to formally introduce myself."

Ada's mouth hung open. Suddenly, she was feeling a lot. The mix of Jongho's wonderfully handsome smile, his beautiful eyes, the way he cut her off, and his slick use of the word sweetheart made her heart beat faster.
