The Trap I Fell For [Under Reconstruction]

[4]

I don't even care as to what they do. As I thought, it's dangerous to interact/talk to popular people. It will clearly pull my secret out the bag and I don't want that. I don't want fake friends, fake followers, fake admirers that only wants to get in my pants and most of all, jealous bitches that will make my life as dramatic as possible.

Class hours were long over and students were already scattered in the hallways. I walked to my locker and looked around me. It was the usual scenery. Group of girls gossiping and talking about the hot basketball and football players, guys whistling to girls that passes them, couples making out and so much more I don't want to elaborate. I might be in a private school and you'd think that people here will have class and would be preppy and snobby and sophisticated and stuff but no. You're way off! Even though we are in a private school every student here (except for the smart and nerdy ones) acts like out of control teenagers or what I call them- Animals.

After I put all my books inside my locker, I slammed it as I saw the three idiots... I mean Tao and his monkeys. They strutted in the middle of the hallway, people backing to the side to let them pass. When they walked past me, I saw Tao glance at me and smirked. What's his problem? I ignored it and went straight to the library.

When I opened the door, there were a several people there. A club to be precise. "I'm sorry, I didn't know someone was here." I apologized. How can I be so stupid as to forget that some club is borrowing this room? Seriously, what is happening to me? "It's okay." a tall guy with glasses and disheveled chestnut hair said pulling me out of my thoughts.

Wait! Is he supposed to be a nerd? I don't mean this in a rude way but he has got to be kidding, right? He looks too good to be a nerd. "Can I stay here for a while? I'm going to read books in a corner. Only if it's not a bother." I asked politely while looking down at the floor. Please say yes...

"Sure, we still haven't started yet so don't worry about interrupting something. We're still waiting for the telescope to be brought here. I sent two members to get it." He said smiling brightly at me. "Is that so? Well, I'm relieved I didn't interrupt something." I said. "You're only ten in the club right? Why are there only few members?" I continued. He sighed and just shrugged. "I don't know. I guess students here think it's boring and nerdy or some shit like that." I nodded. I can relate to what he's saying. I mean, just because they're wealthy doesn't mean they'll be rich and cool forever.

"Yeah, they're one of those typical spoiled brats who think they can lead a good life with just money. They don't even care about their studies." I muttered selflessly. "Can I sit near the window?" I continued, jerking a thumb towards my favorite spot. He smiled "Yeah, sure. By the way I'm Choi Jaehyun, club president. What's your name?"

"Oh, uhm... I'm Luhan." I replied holding out a hand which he took. I can't believe I almost forgot to introduce myself, rude much? "Seriously? You're Luhan, the school's student rank no. one?" he asked sounding so shocked. "Yeah. Why? Is there something wrong with that?" I asked, not getting what's the big deal about that. "You are most remarkable student here in West Ridge Academy! You're the only one who can beat that arrogant playboy Oh Sehun." he said admiringly. I chuckled "Thank you."

I could talk to this boy all day. I mean, who wouldn't want to be praised so much while insulting that playboy at the same time.

"Come on. I'll introduce you to our members." he said going near the people at the table. I nodded and followed him. "That is Hansol," He said pointing to a boy with curly brown hair that is staring at his laptop. "And that is Yonghwa, Jungshin and Jonghyun. They're brothers," He said pointing to the people at the end of the table.

Whoa! Wait. Pause. Rewind. Are they seriously supposed to be geeks? Not to be rude. But, damn those boys look hot. What the hell is happening to this school? The populars are the not-so-attrctive ones now and the nerdy ones are?

"That red head with glasses is Jia and that brunnet with braces is Eunji." Jae said pulling me out of my thoughts. I greeted all of them. I chatted with Jae for a while. In the midst of our conversation, the door suddenly opened and someone entered. To my surprise it was Chanyeol.

When he saw me, he immediately placed the telescope down and went over to where I was. "Luhan!" He shouted and hugged me tightly. "C-Chanyeol, I c-can't breathe!" I struggled. "Oh I'm sorry." he said letting me go. "Are you two dating?" one of the members asked who I believe is Hansol.

"No! We're just acquaintances." I quickly opposed the idea. He arched his brows at me with doubt. "Is that so? You just seem so close." he said voicing his thoughts. "Luhan is my new best friend!" Chanyeol said with a huge grin on his face. "Best friend? We technically just met." I stated, raising a brow. He pouted "Come on. Be my best friend. You know you want to." I rolled my eyes and sat near the window. "Aww Luhan, be my best friend." he said pleadingly. I sighed and simply said "Okay, fine."

"What are you doing here anyway?" he asked. "Just reading some book." I replied as I opened the book I was reading and started where I left off. "But why here?" he asked looking at the book I'm reading. "Why not? I consider this place as my oasis anyway." I said not bothering to look at him. "Really? This is your oasis? So can I also hang out here?" He asked excitedly. "Do what you want." I said flatly. "Thanks." he chuckled. Realizing I agreed of him hanging out with me.

"No! I'm taking it back, you can't hang out here." I said looking at him. "But you already said to do whatever I want. And besides I'll only annoy you until you say yes." he said winking at me. Sighing, I gave up. I spaced out on the thought of having someone else here. And there's no point in arguing with him. He's as stubborn as hell. "Fine. Whatever. You're so annoying." I said looking down at the book. He laughed and ruffled my hair. "Thanks."

I glared at him and fixed my hair when I saw the other members of the club having a hard time with the telescope. I closed my book and stood up. Chanyeol asked me "Where are you going?" not listening to what he's saying; I went to the others who were having a hard time. "Do you need some help?" I asked them while smiling. "Uh, sure." Jungshin said. "Please move a little." they moved and gave way for me. I noticed that the telescope was brand new. Maybe that was why they were having a hard time. After I set it up I went back to my seat. "I didn't know you can set up telescopes." Chanyeol said. "It's because I have one at home so I know how." I said before I let my imagination take over as I continue reading.

After their club activity they left, except for Chanyeol. "Hey aren't you going home? It's getting dark." he asked getting ready to leave "Maybe a little later." I said. I'm not really excited to go home. "Ok. I'm heading home first. I still have my part time job." He said heading for the door. I suddenly remembered the keys. I stopped him before he got out. "Wait! Do you have the keys?" Surprised he said "Yeah, I have them. Why?" I stared at him.

This is the first time I noticed it but, he is really good looking. His light brown brown hair that you just want to run your fingers through and his green eyes that feels like they see right through you. And his shirt is so fit that the trace of his abs are sho- Stop! Luhan, bad!

Stop thinking about that! What the hell is happening to me? I seriouly have to get my hormones in check.

I mentally slapped myself and shook my head before saying "Uh, I'm in charge of keeping the key. So can I have it back?" he stared at me for a while and smiled "Is that so? Here, Goodbye Luhan."

He leaned down and kissed me on the forehead and left. I stood there for what seems like hours. What just happened? Why did he do that? I shook my head and fixed my things. I checked the time.

6:23 pm.

I hurried and locked the door behind me. It's so late. I didn't notice. Good thing I finished my homeworks earlier. But I still have to finish the company presentation. When I reached home Baekhyun greeted me with a wide grin and a cheery voice "Luhan! Uncle is waiting for you in the living room." I stopped in my tracks as I eyed him and said "Why?"

His grin got wider a mischeivious glint crossed his eyes. "Find out for yourself."
