Tough Girl's Sweetheart 23

Haeul POV
I roll the pen in between my fingers as I jad my eyes set on my half done essay. Much catching up is needed since I've not been to school for almost a week now. I bite my lips and frown my brows as I thought hard. But... it wasn't for the essay questions in front of me. Those questions are easily answered if I had my full attention to it but a certain strong stare on the back of my head by Joonmyun is making me think if I had done something to make him be all weird since dinner time.

I casually pretend to stretch and turn around to look. Joonmyun ,who was sitting in bed reading a book or more like using the book as a cover, duck his initial gaze on me and held his sight onto the book. I chuckle as I saw what most cliché movies would have, his book is upside down. I stood up and abandon the table filled with papers. I walk towards his side of the bed and sat directly in front of him. He looks up and just gave a puzzled look.

"Your book is upside down oppa. Tell me. What's on your mind?" I giggle as I took the book away from his grasp and sat cross legged infront of him.

"Ah really?!" He blush a pink hue as I nod in confirmation. 

"Actually I noticed that everyone has been weird since dinner. Like as if you guys are hiding something from me. Tell me oppa before I dig it out myself," I jokingly threatened him.

"Aniya! It's just..." Joonmyun struggles to relay his thoughts. 

"It's okay. Just tell me. I won't be sad, angry or anything. I'll listen to your whole story," I assured him, thinking that maybe what he is going to tell me is a very shocking fact or something. 

"No! It's nothing like that. I just want to ask... you a question," he said and sigh.

"Okay," I straighten up and lean closer, interested in what he is going to ask," Ask away~"

"Umm...," Joonmyun fidget and squirm as he looks into my eyes," Will you go out on a date with me?"

I was frozen and speechless for a second. Did he just really asked me that? I then realised that he did asked me that and laugh. He still looks nervous as hell as I held onto his arm as our knees touch. I calm down and smile as he tilt his head questionably. 

"Of course silly! You don't even have to ask. Anything with you is a yes," I giggle as he breathes out a breath of relief. 

"O-okay. Thank you," Joonmyun pulled me in suddenly for a hug.

I squeal as I came crashing into his chest and his arms are around me tightly. I hook my hands behind his neck to prevent my full body weight onto him. I guess he realised what he did as I can feel his whole body literally tensed up and frozen. I pull back a bit and sat myself onto his lap. He laughs nervously as he had his gaze anywhere else other than me.

"S-sorry," Joonmyun whispers.

"It's okay. I'm yours to play with," I teased him.

He snap his head towards me so quickly that I thought he might have sprained his neck. I chuckle and gave him a tongue out. He laughs in embarrassment. I got up and tried to move away from him but ended up tumbling back onto him, this time straddling him. Damn you fluffy sheets! I tried again but it ended up worst as I had Joonmyun under me totally now and legs tangled into the sheets. I just made this worst. The door bursts open and I turn around to see Xiumin who had his eyes on a book, walking in.

"Hyung, how to do this question?" Xiumin was still unaware of our awkward position and I was too taken back to do anything.

Finally Xiumin look up after Joonmyun's lack of response. Xiumin blinked a few times and so did I. He cursed under his breath and rushed back out with a blushing face. He close the door with a bang.

"Next time lock the door will you?!" The muffled shout from Xiumin could be heard.

I blink a couple of times at the door and look back down to Joonmyun who is as shocked as me. I laugh and just roll over onto my back to get off him. I'm laughing so hard that tears are threatening to fall. I breathe in and out as I calm myself down. I was still laying down so I turn to see Joonmyun looking at me with a wide smile.

"We are bad with timing aren't we?" Joonmyun asked.

"Yupp. And circumstances hate us," I chuckle as we both laid on the bed in silence.

I close my eyes as the silence comfort me. It's not usually for someone like me to have silent moments for myself and to just appreciate it. I heard a sigh and turn to Joonmyun.  He too had his eyes closed. I turn my whole body to face him and hug onto his arm.

"I'm tired," I mumbled with eyes closed. 

"Then sleep," Joonmyun replied. 

"It's just not physically," I sigh.

"Then lean onto me. I can't take it away but I'm sure I'll be of some help," he confidently said," Don't bag it alone."

"You already did help me," I mumble back as sleepiness is lingering.

"Sleep," Joonmyun firmly states," I'm here."

"I know," I mumble back the last answer before I lost the battle to sleep.

"Saranghae Haeul ah..."


School had been a bitch. I got to know that from the period of my absence, Joonmyun's fanbase got bigger and no guy dared to touch him since Byungjae too. I was half happy and half pissed off too. I sigh irritatingly as I heard what the girls are talking about from the back of the girl's changing room.

"Have you seen him?"
"He cut his hair I noticed!"
"His skin is so smooth!"
"I want to kidnap him and make him do things~"
"He had gotten muscular too!"
"Ah~ Suho is so prince like"
"Hey I call dips on Suho first!"

I shut my locker door loudly and the group of girls instantly shut up. I can feel my own black aura as I exit the changing room and joined Xiumin, Chanyeol, Kai and Sehun by the bleachers. After the awkward incident with Xiumin, you could say we received just more teasings from everyone.  I kick a loose ball and it flew all the way across the court, hitting the metal door, making a loud satisfactory banging sound. I sigh and plop down beside Sehun who had his eyebrow up questionably and so was the rest.

"What made you so... unhappy noona?" Kai asked cautiously. 

I didn't answer him as I just stare at Joonmyun playing basketball with Tao and Chen at the other end of the court happily. My eyes scan his surroundings and sure enough, there will be a group of girls looking his way with those heart like eyes. I curse under my breath as I caught him smiling towards them as a gesture of manner. Doesn't he know that smiling like that would just end up making him more lovable?!

"Why are they calling him Suho?" I ask as I glare at the fangirls who are squealing over him sweating. I know girls, he's hot when he sweats.

"Noona, are you by chance..... jealous?" Kai asked with an amused expression. 

"No!" I deny in embarrassment," Just curious. "

"Okay~" Kai didn't sound like he believed me," They got to know his nickname and had been calling him that. Suho sounded nicer than Joonmyun I guess."

"I don't think so," I mumble under my breath.

"What did you said?" Kai asked amusingly. 

"Nothing," I sigh as I just watch the the guys gang up on poor Baekhyun.

They were passing the ball around and it flew out of Joonmyun's hands, hitting a girl by the bleachers on her head. I just watch as she dramatically fell to the ground while her minions put an act of panicking but their wide smiles on their faces gave it away. I scoff as she leans onto Joonmyun while Joonmyun was being his usual naive self and kept on asking if she is alright. I laugh darkly when I saw her wrapping her arms around Joonmyun's neck. This girl needs to know what can be touched and what cannot be touched. Especially my man.

"Uh noona?" Kai call out," I think you should calm down."

"Oh Jongin," I turn to Kai with a dark smile," I am calm."

I stood up and stroll across the court to where that bimbo is clinging onto my man. String of curses could be heard as Kai and Chanyeol kept up with me. Oh I am calm alright. I stood in front of them while Joonmyun look at me with a signal for help except he thought the girl was dying. Well... I should help shouldn't I?

"Oh my!" I fake a gasp," What happened to you?"

The girl turn around and became wide eye when she saw who I am. She quietly let go of her hands around him and look at the ground.  I squat down her level and pat her head. 

"Injured?" I ask in fake nice tone," Let's go to the nurse's room."

"Noona-" Kai wanted to calm me down but he got cut off.

"It's okay sunbaenim. I can help HeeJin to the nurse's," One of her minions tried to cover up for her. If you are a girl, you would know that I am calling her out for a confrontation. 

"Nope. I'm taking her. I feel bad cause my husband made you like this," I sarcastically said and glare at that girl.

"Get up now and follow me," I whisper in her ears as I help her up.

This HeeJin girl didn't struggle and just stood up soundlessly. I smirk as I saw Kai's worried look. I put up a finger to my lips and gave him a hush signal. I turn back to HeeJin to see her staggering a bit in fear. How pathetic...

"Need me to piggyback you HeeJin-sshi?" I smile as she looks up with fear in her eyes.

"Aniyo s-sunbaenim. I can walk fine," HeeJin deny and stood straight beside me.

"HeeJin-sshi, I'm so sorry for hitting you on the head," Joonmyun apologize in guilt.

"Aniyo s-sunbaenim," she didn't even dare to look at him.

I walk as she followed silently. We both got out of the hall and I instantly face her. She step back and I already have her trapped between the wall and me. I smile as she looks to the ground while shaking in fear.

"I-I'm s-sorry," HeeJin apologize while stuttering badly.

"Oh hun," I caress her long hair," Why are you apologizing?"

"For touching your husband?" HeeJin answered unsurely. 

"Wrong," I smile and grab her collar to pin her to the wall," That wasn't your mistake."

"P-please d-don't h-h-hurt me," HeeJin stuttered with tears brimming down her eyes. I barely did anything and she's a mess already. 

"I don't mind girls like you ogling him, fantasizing about him, strip him naked with your shameless eyes or including him in those dirty fanfics of yours. But there is one thing I really don't appreciate girls like you doing, which is touching what is not yours. Know what is the limit before I beat up that pretty little face of yours," I threatened lowly," Do I make myself clear HeeJin-sshi?"

"Y-y-yes," HeeJin nods her head furiously as tears continue brimming down her fear filled eyes.

"Good," I let go of her collar and she went down sliding to the floor.

"Get your head check for concussion," I said as I turn back into the sports hall.

I look around to see Exo all gathered up by the bleachers, joking around as usual. I walk up to them and sat beside Kai who was eyeing me suspiciously. I turn to him and ruffle his hair. He flick my hand away and glare at me. But his glare resume back to worried eyes.

"Don't worry kid. I didn't kill her," I assured him.

"Well I didn't think up till that but what did you do to that poor girl," Kai chuckle. 

"Just talk. She's a nice girl. I'm sure she got my message," I said and sigh as the bell rang indicating the end of physical education period.

"Haeul- " Joonmyun call me out but I was already walking away.


Joonmyun POV
I watch as Haeul walks away without even turning around. Unknowingly i pout in disappointment as I felt like I was being ignored.

"What have you done hyung..." Kai shook his head and chuckle.

"What did I do?" i point to myself.

"Wait, is noona angry at hyung? Cause she didn't even face him just now," D.O asks.

"It's women's nature i guess," Chanyeol said.

"What are you guys talking about? What did I do?" I am more confused now.

"Our innocent and naive hyung ~ Don't you know?" Chen cooed.

"Know what?" I ask, getting more irritated.

"Noona is jealous and angry at you," Sehun said.

"Jealous?! Of what? And what did I do? And why is she angry at me?" I gushed out of confusion.

"Hyung, if you hadn't noticed, your fanbase has been getting bigger and bigger. Of course noona would be jealous. Girls are literally looking at you with those 'eyes'. Hyung, do you really not know?" Kai points out.

I look around and he was right, people were looking at me differently. How ignorant was I? I turn back to Exo who is looking at me amusedly while I was still confused.

"Stills doesn't explain why she is angry with me," I muttered, making Exo facepalm themselves.

"Hyung!" Sehun whine while Kai sigh beside him.

" Hyung, noona is angry because did you see how that girl was clinging onto you while you were totally not pushing her away," Chen finally explains.

"Oh... That..." I frown while thinking," She was faking her pain?"

"Yupp, that girl could perfectly walk alright," Xiumin commented.

"Then why Haeul brought her to the nurse's if she knew that girl was fine?!" I ask, finding it absurb.

"Oh you know how guys confront other guys, I'm sure girls do the same too. Except theirs are so discreet though," Chanyeol chuckle.

"She beat her up?" I squeaked.

" I don't think so. Saw the girl just now, looks okay maybe just shaken cause her friends were crowding around her asking her questions but she didn't answer. Just stood there," Lay informed.

"Wow noona is awesome!" Baekhyun cheered.

I left Exo talking to themselves to get change before heading out to find Haeul. I went to the cafeteria, library, classroom and around school before a place came to mind. Rushing up the stairs and pushing the metal door, I was greeted by the blinding light from the afternoon sun. I blink a few times before my eyes adjusted to the light. I look around and smile when I saw her lay down on the couch, hair flowing in the wind as she had eyes closed while listening to music. What a beautiful sight. Walking up to her, I can see her smiling to herself. She knew.... I stop walking the same time she sat up to turn to me. She threw me a brief smile before her gaze was fixed to the blue skies above. I sigh and took a seat next to her.

"Haeul ah~" I hesitated to hold her hand but i did it. I made her angry.

"Oh oppa, you okay with PDA now?" Haeul teased but didn't made any movement to pull her hand away from mine.

"Mianhae," I bravely apologize.

Haeul turn to me and look at me confusingly,"Huh? Why?"

"Cause I was being ignorant. Um... I didn't know that girl was faking it. I really thought she had like an injury or something-" And I was caught off guard by Haeul's hysterical laughter.

I blink as I watch her wither in laughter. After a while she calm down and sat up. She saw my confused face and starts giggling. I can't help but to smile too.

"Why are you laughing?" I chuckle and tuck away a loose strand of hair behind her ear.

"That's because you're funny!" Haeul exclaimed.

"But Exo told me that you were angry at me,"I look down in guilt," And jealous."

"Well... I must admit I was jealous," Haeul laugh nervously," But i wasn't angry at you. Just at that stupid girl."

"Really?" I smile in relief.

"Yeah, I don't get why Exo told you that I was angry at you though. I just went up here to cool off," Haeul lean back into the couch.

"But I didn't know you would feel jealous," I teased her," I would only look at you."

"T-That's because you became more handsome now so girls are now attracted to you," Haeul stutter with a faint blush covering her cheeks,"Why do you have to become more handsome?"

"It's for you of course. Only for you," I admit as Haeul became more flushed.

"Since when did you become a smooth talker huh oppa," Haeul joked as she fans her face.

"I was like this all the time," I gloated.

"Pfft... As if," Haeul playfully scoff.

I laugh and lightly pat her head. She dive towards me and lean onto my chest while clinging her her hands around my waist. GRRRRRRR~ A growl from my stomach made me  blush harder than I already am. Haeul sat up instantly and roll onto her side laughing. I scratch my head in embarrassment as I watch her have her fun. Why must you growl now stomach.....

"Mianhae oppa. Let's go to the cafeteria," Haeul pull me up and I just follow her.


UNKNOWN POV
So this who you are Kwon Haeul...... I watch as the two figure move towards the exit door at the rooftop. We're going to meet soon for sure.
