"We're here to take you out." he said in a serious tone. Hana didn't seem fazed by the announcement and continued to bore holes in the boy's head because to her, he didn't make any sense.

"Let me break this down for you." Baekhyun says as he takes another sip and places in down on the table. He shifts forward a little in his seat before looking at Hana seriously and points at himself and the other two occupants of the sofa and says "We", later pointing at Hana and says "You" before pointing to the door and saying "Out". He lastly clasps his hands together and says "Fun" with a bright grin on his face. He had uttered those words slowly, as if to make sure she understands what he's saying and Hana thinks that maybe Baekhyun took the term a bit too seriously.

Lay mutters something that sounds like 'this idiot' before he decides to matter into his own hands and grabs Hana's attention.

"What he means is, since you didn't agree last night.....we thought we'd be able to change your mind if we came over personally."

Hana's cocked eyebrow was more than enough for Lay to understand that their plan was going to end up in ruins, but that didn't stop him. In fact, it encouraged him to try harder, to make Hana feel comfortable around him. The girl shook her head and Baekhyun whined. Hana didn't miss the disappointment in Lay's eyes neither did she ignore the frustrated groan from Kyungsoo. She'd be lying to herself if she thought their saddened expression didn't bother her, however, she was not entirely convinced that three people that she had no connection with a week ago were so eager to be in her dull company that they went as far as coming to her house.

But she wanted to end it. All of this was unnecessary and if they were already disappointed by her within their first week of acquaintance then there would definitely be more occasions and she wanted to them all a favor and save them from any upcoming troubles. She stood from her seat with three pairs of eyes intently watching her and grabbed a purple marker and the small whiteboard that was placed neatly on the side table next to the sofa and scribbled.

She left it upside down on the coffee table and took her mug along with her upstairs to her bedroom where she decided to stay the rest of the day. Hearing the faint sound f the door clicking, Kyungsoo flipped over the whiteboard and revealed the clear purple words,

'You're wasting your time.

I'm not going anywhere

Goodbye.'

"This.....this is kind of irritating." Kyungsoo said as he put the board back down. Baekhyun was quiet and staring off into space as he hatched various idea of how they could convince the stubborn girl. Kyungsoo got up agitated with their situation and made way for the door, grabbing Baekhyun in the process who followed limply. But before they could pass, Lay clutched onto Baekhyun's free wrist, stopping the two and slowly met their questioning gazes with a toothy mischievous smile.

"Oh I know that look. You're on to something aren't you?" Lay nodded slowly, his dimples still showing, and tugged the duo back to their seats.

"Well? Spill it Guitar Hero!" Baekhyun exclaimed, getting impatient by his friend's behavior. Lay reached over and took the white board, facing it towards Kyungsoo and Baekhyun and pointed towards the second line.

"So? What about it? She made it pretty clear she's not gonna come with us." Kyungsoo deadpanned but Lay quickly shook his head.

"She said she's not going to go anywhere."

"And....?"

"But that doesn't mean we can't stay here."
