사랑 참 어렵다 (Love is hard)

Chapter Five

"You're amazing," D.O. said as we walked out of my studio.

"Not even," I shook my head, smiling, "You guys helped so much."

"Chen was so right about you," Suho put an arm around my shoulder, "I'm so glad we met you."

"Heesooah!" I heard someone yell my name. I turned and saw Chen walking towards us, a big smile on his face.

"Oppa!" I cheered, as Chen enveloped me into his arms in a tight embrace.

"How was class?" Chen asked.

"Good," I nodded, "Suho oppa and D.O. oppa are awesome. It's so fun working with them."

"No, no," Suho shook his head, "Heesoo is amazing. You've picked a good best friend."

"I know," Chen smiled widely, "She's pretty special.'

"Stop," I blushed, looking down in embarrassment, "Now c'mon we gotta go to math," I tugged at Chen's arm and waved at Suho and D.O. as we walked away.

"You're so cute," Chen laughed, pinching my cheek.

"Oppa!" I whined, pulling away from Chen, "Stop!"

"Wae? You don't like it?" Chen teased.

"Of course not," I pouted, making Chen laugh harder. We walked into the classroom and took our seats near the back.

"Gosh I love you," Chen sighed, shaking his head and looking at me in awe.

"Love you too oppa," I smiled.

"Chenah!" A male's voice cheered, we both turned and saw Baekhyun walking into the room.

"Annyeong?" Chen waved Baekhyun over, "Baekhyunie this is Heesoo, Heesoo this is Baekhyun."

"Annyeonghasayo?" I smiled, standing up.

"Heesooah!" Baekhyun smiled, pulling me into his arms for a hug, "It's so good to meet you!"

"It's good to meet you too," I laughed.

"After all that I've heard about you I've been so excited to meet you," Baekhyun told me as he sat down next to me.

"Oppa," I turned to Chen, "How much do you talk about me?"

"Oh, well, you know," Chen blushed slightly, "You are my best friend."

"So basically all the time," Baekhyun put in, "But it's all good things. Chen adores you."

"So I've heard," I chuckled, "Suho oppa and D.O. oppa said the same thing."

"Aw man, you've already met them?" Baekhyun groaned, "I wanted to be the first."

"Close, you beat most of the group," I reminded him.

"Speaking of the group," Baekhyun started, looking at Chen, "Did you hear about the concert on Friday?"

"Uh yeah," Chen nodded, "I just read the message."

"There's a concert on Friday?" I asked excitedly.

"Yup," Baekhyun nodded, "It's sort of like a welcome back to college kind of thing. It should be fun."

"Yes! I can finally meet everyone! And see you guys in concert," I grinned, "I'm like the worst friend ever cause I never went to any concerts."

"You tried," Chen said, "It's not your fault."

"On the other hand," I added, "I've watched every performance online and I own every song and an embarrassing amount of merch."

"See?" Chen chuckled, "That's my girl."

"I do what I can," I flashed a smile. The teacher then came in and started the lesson, causing us to cease our conversation for the time being. When the class finished we all gathered up our stuff and headed out into the courtyard.

"What are you doing for lunch?" Chen asked me.

"Mmm, not sure yet," I shrugged, "Shame I don't have a kitchen in my dorm."

"We have one," Baekhyun informed, "You can come cook at our dorm. Chenie says you're really good at cooking."

"She is," Chen nodded.

"I am taking a cooking class too," I added.

"Really? So is Lay hyung," Baekhyun informed me, "Maybe you'll have that class together."

"Ooh I'm excited," I smiled.

"So, what are you doing for lunch?" Chen asked again.

"I'll probably just go to the cafeteria and get something small," I shrugged, "Do you guys want to come?"

"Yes!" Baekhyun cheered, throwing an arm around my shoulders.

Chen's POV

I watched as Heesoo and Baekhyun walked ahead of me towards the cafeteria, Baekhyun's arm around Heesoo's shoulders. I'm glad that Heesoo is finally meeting the rest of the guys. I really think the guys were starting to wonder if Heesoo even existed. Looking back it's kinda weird that they've never been able to see her. I mean I guess it makes sense in a way. Heesoo's parents are very protective of everything she does. Our contact was limited to mostly texting with the occasional calls. We facetimed once and her parents freaked out. They claim that they want to keep her out of the press as much as possible, and between me and her older brother Leetuek it's way too easy for her to get involved in the kpop drama as they call it. So, that means basically no pictures together, not being able to see each other in public, and especially not allowing her to have contact with a lot of other idols. Though now that I think about it, this all started after Heesoo and Kyuhyun broke up. I wonder if their break up had anything to do with her parents' sudden aversion to Heesoo being around idols....it was a pretty nasty break up...

"Chen oppa," Heesoo turned and motioned for me to move fast, "Hurry up!"

"Why do you call Chenie Chen instead of Jongdae?" Baekhyun asked curiously.

"Mmm, I like Chen," Heesoo spoke, "It's cute."

"She usually only calls me Jongdae when I'm in trouble," I chuckled, before frowning, "And it's not cute. It's manly."

"You keep telling yourself that," Heesoo winked at me, a cheeky smile playing on her lips. We stepped into the cafeteria and quickly grabbed different items for lunch before sitting down at a 4-top table. Heesoo's hazel eyes scanned the cafeteria as she waited patiently for Baekhyun and I to start eating. I watched as her eyes suddenly lit up and a smile bloomed on her face.

"Kim Dohee!" She called, waving a girl over, "Oppas this is my roommate Kim Dohee. Dohee this is Chen oppa and Baekhyun oppa from Exo."

"Annyeong," Dohee smiled, waving at us.

"Annyeong," Chen and Baekhyun replied simultaneously.

"Sit down," I gestured to the empty seat across from me, "Sorry we didn't get to talk this morning, Chen oppa wanted to get breakfast. But anyways, tell me about yourself."

"No problem," Dohee shrugged as she sat down, "And where to begin?"

***

Well...sorry if this chapter seems kinda boring...now that everything is mostly introduced and everybody is meeting each other things should get going....anyone curious about the nasty breakup between Heesoo and Kyuhyun? Well you'll just have to wait to find out about that ^^
