Best Friend || NCT x Red Velvet

Prologue

~~~

The little girl was walking inside the old abandoned playground. This is where she always play, but it was unfortunately left to rot. Leaving all the slides and rides to be dirty and break due to oldness.

She remembered the old memories. Playing with her friends like running, skipping the rope, jumping from the hot lava, climbing from the monsters and zombies.

It always makes her happy. Even the memories makes her happy. Even though that she was only 7, she wasn't a dumb person to forget great things that happens once in a lifetime.

Touching the old slides she once rode made her frown. Remembering fighting with her little friends just to be the first one to ride. She chuckled as she remembered her evil words back then, threatening her friends just to take the slide.

She was getting kinda tired of walking around, so she decided to head to her favourite, the swing. As she was getting closer, she heard soft sobs from one of the swings. It seems like she wasn't the only one visiting her favorite place. While getting closer, she saw a little boy who was crying.

She was utterly surprised. The side view of the kid, probably same as her age, was amazing. His jawline was so sharp and his rosy lips were cute. His eyes were sparkling even from crying. She can see the tear stains on his uplifted cheeks.

"Hey..", the little boy jumped and automatically looked at his back. He saw a little girl looking at him with pity written all over her face.

The little girl's face was curious. The boy looked back at the girl, noticing that she wanted some kind of answer. He was... surprised? The girl was pretty after all.

"She's cute..", the boy thought

"Oh, hey.. You scared me..", the little boy let out a soft chuckle. The girl tilted her head slightly on the right, not understanding the boy.

As the boy saw the girl tilting her head, he immediately liked her. She looked like a little puppy that's confused.

"Are you crazy? You're crying but now you're laughing? You okay?", the girl placed her hands on the side of her hips.

"Did she just call me.. Crazy? This girl is plain up sassy", the boy thought. He smiled a bit and answered the girl.

"I'm just sad. Those kids out there are always picking on me. Telling me that I'm ugly and stuffs. I just feel that I won't have any real friend..", the boy chuckled but changed his expression once he noticed that nothing was funny.

"Are those kids blind? You're handsome af!!", Yeri thought. Flustered at her thoughts, she then cleared her throat.

"Hey..", the girl called the boy. The boy looked at her eyes. "What's your name?", she asked.

"Why does she want to know my name? To tell her friends and probably laugh at me? I hope not. Because I'm trusting her."

"My name is Taeyong.. How about you?", the boy looked at the girl.

"Taeyong.. What a nice name.. For a handsome bo--", the girl shook her head slightly letting out a light chuckle.

"My name is Yerim but you can call me Yeri instead", She looked at the boy again.

"Her laugh is music to my ears.." the boy blushed and slowly looked away as he pretended to wipe his tear from his cheeks while he's actually hiding his burning cheeks.

"Hey, do you want to be my BFF?", the boy looked at Yeri with confusion, not understanding the meaning of it.

"What does 'BFF' means?", the girl let out a light chuckle.

"If she doesn't stop laughing like that I might marry her right now", the boy thought

"It means Best Friend Forever silly! We are going to be friends for enternity! Would you like that?", Yeri waited for his response eagerly.

"That's.. my first time to ever hear that..", the boy emotionally thought.

"Yeah, that sounds fun!"

The boy nervously looks at his seatmate that introduces herself. He was next. He nervously looked at the teacher and the girl. He was sweating.

"Wow, I really hate these kind of things..", he wiped his sweat and stood up.

"My name is Jung Yoonoh, 7 years old. You can call me Jaehyun instead", the shy boy sat down quietly.

"Whoo, that was.. awkward but fast but scary.. I hope I die right now..", he nervously thought as all the girls were looking at him.

His other seatmate was now standing up, about to introduce herself.

He glanced at his seatmate, only to see a girl who brightly smiles as she was standing and waiting for her cue to speak.

"Hello everyone!! My name is Kim Yerim but you can call me Yeri instead. I hope to be friends with all of you~", she smiled at everyone before she sat down.

"She is one annoying girl for sure", Jaehyun thought as he saw her seatmate already talking to people.

Jaehyun just lowered his head and tried to read his basic mathematics book as the rest of the students introduce themselves.

"He's handsome that's for sure", Yeri thought while stealing glances at his seatmate, Jaehyun.

She chuckled a bit, "and shy~"
