IT WAS NO hidden truth that he found great joy in disrupting her day by appearing out of the blue, pretending to be lost or unaware of the time.

He'd follow her around sometimes, eye her from behind trees while she silently read or ate outdoors. Once he started the habit it was hard for him to stop. Unbeknownst to the reasons why, the boy just seemed to always find himself stealing glances at her, grinning when she noticed and smiling to himself like a fool when she didn't.

All of it may be blamed on his ever growing childhood crush.

But the thing was, Baekhyun is unfortunately the annoyingly oblivious type. He had no idea of her inner thoughts, couldn't take a hint when given, didn't even bother to.

The whole package, they'd call him. As cliche as it sounds, he truly was the most idolized boy in his school. The looks, the charms, the grades, the popularity, the prestige, and the girl, he had it all.

So it began when he took her number from a supposed friend that sat next to her in class. Texted her anonymously, writing it was by mistake. She actually believed him and texted back nearly everyday.

The time he felt the thumping of his heart when a notification of her text appeared on his phone screen turned him into an addict, he was glued to it for hours. His grades gradually dropped, teachers noticed, his parents noticed, and soon enough, his girl did.

'Why that weirdo out of all people?' was the first thing she asked.
