BUT i will REALLY try to get the next chapter up a lot quicker so please please don't hate me, and thank you for reading, and sorry if there's any mistakes hehe i don't know what editing is lmaosjks okay enjoy<33

"i'm so glad we're spending the whole day together! it's been so long!" hoseok wrapped his arm around my shoulders with a small squeeze as we walked through the mall.

"yeah, it's really nice." i smiled.

i was happy to be spending the day with my best friend, but i was still very angry after finding out what he did to hyungwon. i wanted so badly to call him out, but i had promised my boyfriend i wouldn't say anything.

it didn't take long for us to get hungry and make our way to the food court, buying enough food to feed a family of four.

"so i heard you and hyungwon are... okay?" hoseok spoke up after a while of us quietly eating.

i took a deep breath before smiling at my best friend. "yeah. we met up... and we talked. we're good. and i'm happy."

he nodded as he took another bite of food, chewing slowly and swallowing before opening his mouth again. "i got into a fight with him. but before you say anything, let me explain."

i nodded, telling him to continue. telling him to tell me what i already knew.

"obviously, i was already very pissed off knowing that he hurt you. but then somi told me that he kissed her. do you know how much more angry that made me? i felt like i had no other option. i felt like he had to pay. i'm... i'm sorry. to you, but not to him. he deserved it."

i shook my head. "no, hoseok. he didn't. he didn't do anything wrong."

"yeah? whose fault is it?"

don't tell him. you'll just hurt him.

but he deserves to know. it's like he's being lied to, and isn't that more hurtful?

you can't hurt him.

"it's..." i took a deep breath. "i wanna go home."

"wait, what? why?" he grabbed onto my wrist as i began to stand up. "come on, let's just talk about something else." he rubbed the back of my hand with his thumb. "this is supposed to be our day together."

i took another deep breath as i sat back down.

"you didn't even finish eating." he pouted. "i'm sorry for bringing that up. i didn't realize you'd get so upset. finish eating, and then we can go back to my house.

i took a small bite of food, chewing and swallowing before opening my mouth to speak again. "from now on, when we hang out, let's just avoid talking about hyungwon and somi. it just seems to cause problems."

"agreed."

"hey, you're back! we missed you, kid." hyunwoo's voice was the first thing i heard when i walked into my first class on monday morning.

i smiled at him as i took my seat, hyungwon sitting down next to me.

all my friends welcomed me with smiles, but a sudden tension filled the classroom once hoseok walked in.

he sat down next to hyunwoo, offering me a smile before facing forward. 

"i hate the way things are between them. can't you do anything?" yerim whispered from beside me.

"what? what am i supposed to do?" i whispered back. 

she frowned at me. "you have to do something. i want our group back together and happy and stuff-"

"yerim, hyunmi," both of our heads snapped to face forward when we heard our teacher's voice. "how about the two of you finish your conversation in detention?" 

i glared at the girl next to me before the two of us apologized to the teacher and he continued with the lesson, hyungwon giving my lower thigh a soft squeeze, and making me feel warm inside.

"that was awful! i hope i never had another detention ever again!" yerim whined as we finally walked out of the school building after serving our time. 

i rolled my eyes with a small laugh. "now you know to talk to me less during class."

she let out another whine before we said our goodbyes and went our separate ways.

my walk home consisted of me thinking about hyungwon and hoseok. just like yerim, the fact that they weren't on good terms upset me. our usually happy group of friends had a sour vibe when the two of them were together, and it was unsettling.

i especially hated seeing my two favorite people fighting with each other. it physically hurt my heart. i wanted to help them be happy. i wanted to help our group of friends be happy.

but what can you do?
