The picture to the right bellow is one i made myself especially for this book! i also made the cover for this story

After school I was so tired I fell onto the couch as soon as we got home, Minho’s mother rushed into the room asking me how my day was and I replied with “Difficult” it was hard for me, most of the teachers couldn’t speak English and the English teacher could barely speak it himself! After my reply Minho’s mother went straight over to him and slapped him behind the head and I tried to hold in a laugh as I wondered why she did that. “What was that for?” Minho bellowed as his mother yelled back at him saying “It was you wasn’t it? The one who made Kiara’s day so difficult! When I asked you to look after her I didn’t mean drag her around and tell her what to do!” before Minho could say anything all the band members came flying through the front door. As soon as they saw that Minho and his mother were arguing they quickly went to sit down near me quietly, I then got up and went over to them to clear things up “Minho was not the reason I had a difficult day! I mean if it wasn’t for him I would most likely still be there lost!” Minho and the others almost laughed but they managed to hold it in. “then what was so difficult?” she questioned me “Hardly anyone could speak English” I stated as though it was the most obvious thing in the world, she just laughed and then gave Minho an apologetic hug.

Then Jong and Taemin jumped up from their spots on the couch and said together “Well come on Minho!” his mother then gave him a look and said in a firm voice “You will not be going anywhere tonight! Your father and I are going out and will not be back till tomorrow and for your sister she is always staying at Go Hye Mi’s house on these days as they have dance practice and it is too far away to come back here straight after! You will look after Kiara, make dinner and make sure she feels comfortable!” I stepped in and said “that isn’t necessary” with a nervous laugh but she just gave us all a look saying she wasn’t negotiating. “The boys can stay though” she said with a grin while nodding over at the other band members.

I was practicing my Korean in my room when I smelt something burning, I ran out of the room and into the kitchen to see Minho cooking (trying to cook) and the others laughing at him. I shook my head and said “What are you doing? If you needed someone to cook you could have just asked!” Minho looked up from what he was doing and almost yelled at me “I am cooking! What my mother told me to do; you are the guest are you not?” I just stared blankly “I may be a guest but I am also going to be family while I am here! I also don’t want you burning the house down so I will cook tonight” I walked over next to him and bumped him out of the way as I looked at what he was trying to cook and saw it wasn’t that bad. When they all saw me using what he cooked to make a meal they all spoke up and said “What are you doing?” I just stared at them like they were stupid and said “I’m cooking” this time Minho spoke up and said “But why are you using the crap I made?” “It isn’t that bad, I can make it edible!” I answered.

We all sat down for dinner and everyone looked at their plate with their facial expressions showing they weren’t sure about this. I looked down at the meal and wondered whether it would taste alright. “Come on let’s eat I’m sure it will taste great” Minho said enthusiastically and smiled at me, this gave me courage to try it and it didn’t taste too bad. Everyone at the table was telling me I was an amazing cook but I knew I could do better than this so I didn’t take their praises to heart too much.

After dinner we started to watch a movie, it was in Korean and had no subtitles so everyone chose certain characters to translate which caused them to do a play instead of us all watching the movie. Once we all calmed down again we just sat down and talked, they started to talk about their upcoming schedule for their band. As they were talking about their schedule they slowly changed from speaking English to Korean (It must have been easier for them!). As I listened to them I started to get sleepy and felt my head drooping and my eyes getting heavier, I liked being able to hang out with all of them so I tried to fight it but soon I gave in and fell asleep.

I slowly wakeup feeling a nice warmth around my shoulders, I open my eyes and realise I was sleeping on Minho’s shoulder with his arm around me, what shocked me was that we were still sitting up, usually I need to lay down when I sleep and my body usually moves me to a lying down position if I don’t fall asleep that way. I went to get out of Minho’s hold on me, but as I moved it caused him to lean on me. In this position I couldn’t hold him up and it caused me to be crushed by Minho’s weight. I tried to slide out from underneath him but that just caused him to move causing me to become more squished. I tried once more to move his body off me when he moved in his sleep which caused his hand to rest on my left breast; that was when i snapped and punched him in the face causing him to jump back off me in pain. I looked at him angrily and saw his shocked face. I felt so stupid; of course he didn’t mean to do it on purpose.  I ran into my room and jumped onto my bed hiding my face and my embarrassment in the pillow.

I could hear the others laughing at him, I felt so bad. Why did I get so embarrassed? I hear footsteps of someone coming to my room; I clenched the pillow and pushed my face into it harder. The door opened and I felt someone sit on the bed beside me, they put their hand on my shoulder and said “Why did you punch me?” I just laughed, I couldn’t help it. I looked up at him and he replied by saying “You shouldn’t stuff your head in your pillow so hard, your face is red!” I was glad he didn’t realise it was from me being embarrassed. I sat up and told him what happened and he quickly stood up and said “Of course I didn’t do it on purpose! Who would? You have no figure at all!” I jumped of the bed and kicked him in the gut; I then walked out to get my breakfast leaving him on the ground.
