Torn Between The Stars (Seventeen Fanfic)

Chapter 17: The last straw

"You know..." I trailled off as I fiddled with the pillow we were sitting on, in the hidden spot of the library. "did something happen yesterday night?" I had finally dared to ask the question I had been worrying over the whole night before.

"Hm, nothing really in particular except for my drunk members I guess."

"Really nothing, absolutely nothing happened?" I saw him shaking his head, confirming his answer.

Did Kyungmi really do nothing unlike what she had planned? It was really unlike her.

"One of the members had called our managers, so we left a bit earlier than planned. But, Hoshi was the only one missing. They looked for him the whole night, it was really chaotic. They only got to rest when he sent them a text in the morning. I don't they will ever let us go to a party again."

"Oh." Soonyoung really was a troublemaker.

"So, what was he doing with you right in the morning?" He asked the question he wanted an answer on since the beginning.

I sighed, reminiscing the night over again and told him everything, minus the confession and how he had almost kissed me.

I saw him shaking his head. "Hoshi, that guy..." He seemed deep in thought before he looked at me and grabbed my hand.

"He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"No, he didn't." I assured him.

The bell then rang, indicating it was the end of the lunch break. Both Wonwoo and I grabbed our things and were ready to leave.

I told him I would leave a bit earlier since I didn't want anyone to see us together, but was quickly stopped by him.

"I won't let go of you so easily." He whispered in my ear and pulled me gradually closer. "Let's go on a date after school." He told me, capturing my body with his arms.

I nodded, and hugged him one last time before leaving.

"Where were you during the break?" Kyungmi asked, we were back in the classroom again. From her voice, I knew she found it suspicious.

"Just...at the toilet." I softly answered. Was that really the best thing I could come up with?

"For a whole hour?" I quietly nodded at that.

"You had to take a shit for a whole hour?!" She said almost too loudly. I heard a soft snicker next to me and instantly knew it was Wonwoo.

"Shhh, not so loud!" I hissed. "My stomach wasn't feeling that well, okay? I don't want everyone to hear it."

"Okay, okay. But, are you alright now?" She asked, surprising giving into my lie.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I quickly replied. "Did I miss anything in the meantime?"

"You did, a lot actually."

I showed her a questioning look and then looked around. Scanning my classmates, my gaze ended up on Seolji whose desk was filled with crumpled pieces of paper, a shredded notebook and a flattened piece of metal that was once a soda can.

Something really happened.

There were a few times I had seen her so angry and those times were the scariest. She was going cause trouble again, that was for sure.

"What happened?" I sighed.

She looked at me, and I already knew the answer upon that.

"Two words." She stated.
