The bell rang and all the students ran out of the classroom. Yookyung looked at her schedule and it was time for lunch. She stood up but before she could leave the room, Niel yelled out, "Yookyung-ah! Wanna eat lunch with us?"
She turned around with a puzzled look, "Yookyung-ah? Us?" He scratched the back of his head, "Sorry if you feel uncomfortable with me calling you that. I thought we could drop the honorifics and get close to each other. And by us, I mean Teen Top."
She smiled and nodded. He gave her a bright smile and he walked up. Changjo, Chunji and L.joe walked up to them as well. "Who's she?" L.joe asked while staring at Yooykung.
It was as if his cold eyes were piercing through her and could see everything. She squirmed a bit feeling uncomfortable but Chunji slung his arm around her shoulders once again, "She's the girl you almost hit this morning with your motorocycle. She's a friend now!"
He blinked and made his way to the cafeteria. The rest of them trailed behind and girls were screaming. "L.joe oppa! Sit with us at lunch!" "Niel oppa! You're so good looking!" "Chunji oppa! Why are you so handsome! You blind my eyes!" "Changjo oppa! Go out with me!"
Yookyung was startled by their popularity. She looked around and girls were constantly glaring at her. She cowered into Chunji's arm and just followed them.
They walked into the cafeteria and made their way to Teen Top's usual table. "Noona!" Ricky yelled. He got up and ran to give Yookyung a bear hug. She patted his back and coughed, "Ricky. C-can't b-breathe." He let her go and he took a deep breath. "Mian. How was class so far?" She smiled and said, "It's not bad. I'm in the same class as Niel, Changjo, Chunji and L.joe."
His eyes widened and he screamed, "Same class?! Wow, you sure are lucky!" She blinked and tilted her head to the side, "Why am I lucky?" CAP stood up and said, "I'll explain everything to you after we get lunch." Yookyung nodded and they went on line.
All the male students let them skip and the females were trying to flirt. What seemed like flirting to Yookyung was actually fan service that Teen Top was giving back. Yookyung was the last one to get food and walked to their table.
Before she reached there, some girls blocked her way. Their faces were full of make up and the way they wore their uniforms made them look like sluts. The one in the middle walked up to Yookyung and grabbed her chin examining her face.
She was a dyed blonde, wore too much make up, made her skirt barely cover her butt, her shirt was unbuttoned so much that is was showing too much cleavage and was chewing gum in the most obnoxious way. She scoffed and hissed, "I don't see anything good about you. You better stay away from Teen Top or you'll pay." She popped her gum and walked away while bumping into Yookyung's shoulder on purpose.
Yookyung pouted and walked back to their table. She ended up in between Ricky and L.joe. "Noona! What took you so long?" Ricky asked with a pout. She giggled and said, "Nothing. Some blonde girl just said something to me." He nodded and Yookyung looked towards CAP and asked, "So, are you gonna explain?"
He nodded and started, "Well, like what Ricky said you sure are lucky. Girls would die to sit with us or be in the same class. We're the kingkas of the school and everyone either fears us or respects us. We're the strongest gang in the neighborhood."
Her eyes widened and looked around the table. Niel, Ricky and Chunji were smiling at her as if nothing was wrong. Changjo had a blank look, CAP continued eating and L.joe had a poker face.
*Why is she sitting here?* L.joe thought. He looked at her and examined her face. Her brown hair shone in the sunlight, her cheeks were rosy, her eyes were a nice deep brown and her lips were plump. He looked away and smirked. *This'll be fun.*
"You guys are a gang?!" she exclaimed. Niel nodded, "Yup! CAP hyung is the leader but L.joe is the strongest fighter out of all of us." She looked towards L.joe and his head was in his arms sleeping. She looked back up and ate her food in silence.
*What the heck? My new friends are a gang?! Did I make the right decision?* Changjo could sense her puzzlement and whispered to Niel, "Niel, I think she's a bit confused about being our friend." Niel took a glance at Yookyung and he was right.
He stared at her and spoke up, "Yookyung-ah, are you scared about being our friends?" Her ears perked up and shook her hands, "It's not that I'm scared! It's more like I can't get used to this new environment."
Before Niel could speak, Chunji interrupted asking, "You didn't tell us what school you came from." Yookyung stiffened up and quietly said, "Seoul Elite Prep."
L.joe heard her and thought, *Why is a rich girl in this dump?* Chunji moved closed and asked, "Where?" She sighed and said, "Seoul Elite Prep." Ricky spit out his milk and Changjo choked on his rice. "BWOH?!" they yelled.
She put her finger to her mouth asking them to be quiet. Yookyung looked around and all eyes were on them. She did a small bow but that didn't make the girls stop glaring at her.
Yookyung turned back around to be greeted by L.joe's poker face. She jumped a bit and put a hand over her beating heart. She stared at his face. His eyes were a nice brown but they looked cold. He had no expression whatsoever and that scared Yookyung a bit.
Niel asked, "Why are you in this dump if you used to go to Seoul El-" "Shhhh!!!!" she shushed. He pressed his lips together and didn't say another word. "Long story short, my father's company went bankrupt, we sold the house, we couldn't pay tuition, moved to an apartment near the school and I had to transfer."
L.joe stared at the table and thought, *Wow, must've been rough.* Everyone nodded in understanding. Yookyung then said, "Wait, if you're a gang, then why do you even go to school? I thought gang members would have tattoos, drink, play around with girls and ditch school all the time."
Changjo snickered, "That's just a stereotype. We want to graduate high school, we ocassionally drink, we don't play with girls and we don't have any tattoos as far as I know." She nodded and continued eating.
Lunch went by quickly and they all left. When Teen Top and Yookyung walked out, someone was watching her. She balled her hand into a fist and hissed, "Looks like she didn't listen properly."
