After a while, you wake up, in your very own room. You were surrounded by your maids and butler, who were wearing worried expressions on their faces.

"Was it all a nightmare?" You ask, hoping it was. No, it couldn't be. The pain of his hits were too realistic.

"No, I'm afraid not. But, Miss (L/n) are you okay?" Seong-Mi asks you, while bandaging up your wounds.

"I'm so stupid.." You sigh, hugging yourself.

"Young mistress, I believe that it wasn't your fault. The police got involved and are speaking to Jin Ho Bin." Kwon says, a smile on his face.

"I don't want to go to school tomorrow.." You say, weakly, before curling up into a ball inside your blanket and falling asleep.

The next day:

You forced yourself to wake up, took a shower and etc. You decided to wash your colourful hair today and the hair colour came off.

You dried your hair and got changed into your uniform and went downstairs for your breakfast. You don't each much for breakfast, and just as you are about to leave, Seong-Mi stops you.

"Miss (L/n), you can't go to school, yet! Allow me to cover the bruises on your face, arms and legs!" She yells, and gets her makeup kit out.

"I don't like makeup. It makes my fave feel heavy.." You sigh, but she starts applying it onto your face, arms and legs. Your driver drives you to school, and as soon as you reach school, you're surrounded by people.

"(F/n), are you okay!?" They yell,

"We saw the videos on Pacebook!"

"Apparently, Jin Ho Bin's going to jail!"

You see Mi Jin, who pushes past the crowd and grabs your hands. She notices a huge cut on your cheek and puts a white plaster on it.

"Mi Jin.. He didn't want to break up.." You whisper, and put your hand over your mouth. "Jae Yeol probably hates me.." You quietly sob, tears rolling down your cheeks.

"(F/n), forget about it. I mean, imagine how I deal with Jin Sung.. Take a deep breath in and breathe out slowly. It wasn't your fault." Mi Jin says, wiping your tears. You breathe in and out, and wipe your tears away.

"Okay, I'm done.." You plaster a fake smile onto your face and go to class with Mi Jin. You noticed that whenever you'd walk past someone, they would gasp, as if you came back from the dead.

"(F/n).. You don't look too well." Yui says, as she checks your temperature and she actually looked worried.

"I'm okay. Seriously." You say, and take your seat. Mi Jin brings her chair to your desk and shows you a Pacebook video. Yeah, you were getting beaten by Jin Ho Bin. Someone decided to record it and put it on Pacebook. You notice in the comments that people were cussing Jin ho Bin.

You see Jae Yeol walk into the classroom and he brings his chair to your desk, too. He silently pulls you close to him and hugs you.

"Jae Yeol.." You whisper, and close your eyes. Your head was next to his chest, and you could hear his heart pounding for your love in his chest. You felt as if someone had stabbed you in the throat and you struggled to speak.

Tears started to fall from your face, soaking his shirt and the sound of your cries travelled through the classroom.

"Jae Yeol.. I'm sorry." You sob, and hold onto his shirt, making him tilt his head in confusion. You close your eyes and put your ear against his chest and listen to the sound of his heart pounding, desperately.

His hands snake past your elbows, to your back and he pulls you closer, making you sit in his lap, while your foot was on your chair. He wipes your tears and tilts his head forward, so he can kiss your head. He strokes your beautiful (h/l) (h/c) hair, which manages to calm you down.

Jae Yeol gently takes your hand and notices the ring you wear wearing.

Flashback:
You and Jae Yeol are dating. He smiles and motions you to close your eyes and hold out your hands. You close your eyes and hold out your hand and feel a soft fabric on your palms. You open your eyes and see a beautifully decorated peach-coloured box with a purple ribbon. You open the box and see a pretty black ring with gold, silver and diamonds on it. Sitting next to the beauty was a matching choker, with a blue gem in the middle. Jae Yeol takes the ring and puts it on your finger, along with the choker on your neck. He shows you his finger, which has the same ring and your hands intertwined.

You smile at Jae Yeol, who takes your hand and puts it together with his, showing that he was wearing the ring, too. His large hand reached for your cheeks and pulled them, for fun.

"Look at (F/n) and Jae Yeol.. Wow, I bet they're Korea's richest couple.."

"They look so perfect together.."

"Look at their rings.."

You hear people talking about the two of you, and feel Jae Yeol smirk. He pulls you closer to him and hugs you from behind. The bell rings and he kisses your cheek, before he makes his way to his own desk.

"(F/n), are you okay?" Hyung Suk asks and you nod, with butterflies in your stomach. You felt relieved that Jin Ho Bin was no longer abusing you, and you could fall for Jae Yeol, without having anyone to give you reasons not to.

However, for the whole day, that one question wandered in your mind. How did Jae Yeol feel for you?

~Time skip~

You were at home, getting ready to leave, so that you could walk Koko, and searched the house for his leash. However, before that, you got changed into a (f/c) tank top and short denim shorts. Along with it, you wear a pair of Nike huaraches, with white socks and tie your hair into a messy bun.

You finally manage to find Koko's leash, and were left with the final mission. Yup, putting the leash on Koko. You run after Koko, who runs pretty fast and chase him outside, to the gates. He slips through the gate, and you have to open the gate and run after her. You see Jae Yeol and Hyung Suk, walking to the door. They see you and chase after the dog, too.

"Come on, Koko! It's just a leash!" You yell, and he runs towards Jae Yeol, who is scared of dogs. He runs between his legs, and you, in order to catch up with him, run past Jae Yeol and catch Koko. "Gotcha!" You yell, and put the leash on Koko, who's giving you puppy eyes.

You turn to Hyung Suk and Jae Yeol, who looks traumatised. "I'm sorry about that.. Ah- were you guys coming over to see me?" You ask, and they nod.

"Sorry, we didn't know you were about to leave." Hyung Suk says, apologetically, but you shake your head.

"It's okay.. Do you guys wanna come with me and Koko?" You ask, kneeling down next to Koko. The two of them nod and you walk Koko to the park. Then, all of a sudden, Koko sees a cat and starts running after it. You were scared of cats.

"N-No, Koko! Stop!" You yell, but Koko keeps running towards your worst fear. You fall back, as Koko chases an old lady's cat. Then, you see Jae Yeol run after Koko and stop him, even though he was scared of dogs.

"(F/n), are you okay?" Hyung Suk asks, as he helps you up. Jae Yeol holds back Koko, while the old lady and her cat sit there, confused.

"I'm very sorry!" You say to the old lady, and bow.

"Ah, it's okay.." She replies, and walks away.

"Bad Koko!" You scold Koko, who ignores you and runs after Hyung Suk. Sigh, how annoying.
