Chapter 9

After school I saw Soonyoung talking with some of his friends in the dance club. I debated on weather or not to go and call him out or to just leave. Finally I decided and stormed over to him.

"Hey, Soonyoung," I called causing him to turn towards me. He turned back to his friends and a second later they left, "what the hell was your problem at lunch today?" I asked.

"Can we not talk about this right now? I have to get to practice." He sighed.

"No, I need you to tell me. What did you mean by good? You don't like me do you?" I asked. It had been what I was wondering all day.

"No, I do like you." He replied. "It's just that I don't trust this guy, sure he may be cute or whatever, but he's too nice and it makes me suspicious of him." He snapped.

"What's wrong with being nice?" I asked.

"Nothing. It's just, ugh, you wouldn't understand. I'm sorry I got upset, but I've got to get to practice, so I'll talk to you later." He said before walking away. I sighed and turned around angrily.

I saw Minghao, Mingyu, Wonwoo, Jisoo, and Jeonghan walking towards me. I waved and walked up to them.

"Hey, are you okay?" Jeonghan asked. I sighed and collapsed in his arms.

"I know it's a Monday, but I need a sleepover with you three pronto," I said pointing at Jeonghan, Jisoo, and Wonwoo, "I need to be a girl and gossip and cry and you're the only people I can do it with, and get Seungkwan please." I begged.

"Why not me?" Mingyu asked sounding slightly hurt.

"I love you but you're too manly and it'd make me uncomfortable." I admitted.

"What about Wonwoo?" He argued.

"No he's emo so they cancel each other out, I think." I said.

"I can ask Seungkwan." Jisoo said pulling out his phone. I thanked them and walked next to Minghao and Mingyu.

"Are you alright?" Minghao asked holding my hand tightly.

"Huh? Oh yeah, it's just I don't have any girlfriends and sometimes you have to get things off of your chest." I smiled. "I promise everything is fine."

"Good." He sighed. As we walked Minghao traced circles with his thumb on the back of my hand and might I say I'm obsessed with it.

"Okay, Chae say bye to your boyfriend, we're going to my house now." Jeonghan said. I nodded and hugged Minghao.

"I'll talk to you tomorrow." I said before walking with the guys to Jeonghan's car. Seungkwan was in there waiting for us and talking to the driver.

"No, I'm from Jeju." He said in English which made me laugh harder than it should have.

"Oh hey guys, it's about time I was gonna leave the car." He told us.

"Okay so although I have a lot to talk about, you guys better have things too because I'm not gonna take all night, just most of it." I explained.

"Oh, don't worry. I've got a few things." Jeonghan said.

"Me too." Wonwoo told us.

"I don't, but I can make something up." Seungkwan offered.

When we pulled up to Jeonghan's house his mom came running towards us.

"Jeonghan which one is it?" She asked excitedly.

"Mom he's not here. I told you that." Jeonghan sighed. "You guys can wait in my room, I'll be up in a second."

We all bowed to Jeonghan's mom and went inside, although Jisoo seemed to be the only one that knew where he was going.
