Torn Between The Stars (Seventeen Fanfic)

Chapter 6: Stuck with Jeon Wonwoo

"Good morning, Aeri." Wonwoo greeted me, but I ignored him.

After everything that happened yesterday, I didn't want to have anything to do with them.

They only brought trouble upon me and I was fed up with it. Never have I ever been so embarrassed in my life. It was horrible and I didn't want to experience that all over again.

He was confused by my lack of reaction. Wondering whether he had done anything wrong, he eyed me confused.

Just go away.

Yet, instead of going away he stood in front of my desk to catch my attention. I just looked away, annoyed.

I expected him to quickly leave me alone as I didn't respond him. But, he didn't. Instead of returning to his seat, he reached out to me and cupped my cheek, making me look him straight in the eyes.

Gasps and sudden murmurs roamed through the class as they noticed our strange position. Even his members looked in our way.

I noticed Seolji and Kyungmi staring at us with a little bit too much interest.

I didn't want them to become suspicious so I slapped his hand away while shooting him a glare. I knew he wasn't going to back away easily, so I gave in. The only thing he wanted was a simple greeting back anyway.

"Good morning." I grumped as I wanted the whole class to turn away from us.

He only chuckled at my reaction as he took his seat.

This guy was seriously getting on my nerves

I groaned as I noticed him glancing my way with a victorious look. I wanted to avoid his look so I looked to my right which wasn't much of a better idea because blondie also decided to give me an amused stare back.

Irritated, I just stared right in front of me. Boring my gaze into his back, I noticed The8 shifting uncomfortably as he felt something behind his back.

I didn't really care as long as I didn't have to see those two at my sides.

Everyone soon lost interest in us again and started talking about their life or their problems. But strangely, the whole class quieted down as a particular person entered the room, Yoon Chorim.

Seventeen was surprised by the sudden silence and looked around confused. Searching for the source of this cause, their looks landed on the girl in front of them.

Jeonghan was the one who broke the silence and was happily waving at her.

"Good morning, Chorim-ah!" He smiled brightly, almost like an angel.

Chorim who had her head hung low, looked up in shock. Her face immediately brightened as she saw him and without a thought she ran towards him, pulling him into a big hug.

As they hugged, Chorim's body suddenly shook in sadness.

By then, soft sobs echoed through the room while everyone's attention was focused on them.

"Huh, why are you crying. Did you miss me that much?" Jeonghan asked her, slightly taken aback. He calmly patted on her back while trying to comfort her.

"Yes..." She whispered loud enough for everyone to hear.

As if, she was just happy that she was not alone for the mean time. This didn't mean she was safe from us.

I could hear Seolji scoff as she looked at Jeonghan in disbelief.

"Are you sure nothing's wrong?" He asked just to be sure.
