"Prim!" Changbin called as soon as she had entered the classroom.

"Yeah?" She asked sitting down at her seat.

"Did Minho-hyung stay over at your house last night?"

"Yeah, why? Are you jealous?" she teased him, making his cheeks turn slightly red.

"What? Of course not!" he tried to defend himself, but the answer was clear.

"Whatever you say, Binnie." He sighed in frustration before taking his seat beside her. "Hey, Changbin, would you be angry if I was dating one of the boys?"

"Is it Minho-hyung?"

"Well...we aren't dating but our feelings for each other are pretty obvious."

"Prim, just because we all like you, doesn't mean we'd hate you if you picked someone else. In fact, we'd be happy for whoever you picked. You deserve to be happy and if we aren't the ones to make you happy then so be it. Fate will lead us to the person for us." Prim smiled.

"Thanks, Binnie."

"But I swear if Minho-hyung hurts you, I'll rip out his spine and whack him with it...just until he's in a lot more pain than you." The girl burst out laughing despite knowing Changbin was being serious.

"I'll warn him about that."

"You better..."

"Oh, and by the way, Minho was my secret admirer." The boy smiled.

"I know."

"What? How?"

"I found out about a day after I found you had a secret admirer. It wasn't that hard to be honest. Plants are pretty difficult to keep hidden." They laughed.

"I'm glad you're okay with me falling for Minho and not you."

"I mean I expected it...you're not my type anyway..."

"Oh, really? So, that's how it is now?"

"Trust me, darling, I just liked you because you're hot."

"Someone's been spending too much time around Felix (OMG! My heart...)."

"Because the boy won't leave me alone," he half-laughed, half-shouted.

"I guess we know who fate led you to," she roared with laughter.

"What the heck?! I'm straight."

"With Felix around, not for long."

"Prim!" The girl heard a voice yell for her from behind as she was making her way to JYP Entertainment. She sighed in annoyance, recognising the voice before turning around to see Nayeon running to her.

"What do you want?" She spat out, taking the other female aback.

"I just...about what I did a week ago...I regret it," she answered weakly as she constantly shifted her gaze anywhere but at Prim. "Can we talk about it at café or something?"

"Look, Nayeon, I have a very tight schedule-"

"I know but I just...need to make everything up to you." Finally, they had eye contact. "I need to explain myself and why I did and acted the way I did." With a sigh and a roll of her eyes, Primrose nodded.

"Fine, but I can't stay for long."

"A dozen minutes is all I need."

"When you first came to South Korea, I actually did want to be your friend and that's why I hung out with you because at some point I was in your shoes. No one wanted to be friends with the girl from North Jeju and for about a whole term, I sat alone. So when the opportunity came to change myself, I did so. I never wanted to become one of those 'it girls', I just wanted friends and so I pretended to be one to get friends. When you arrived, I found the opportunity to actually make a friend who would like me for me but then I began to get bullied by my old so-called 'friends'. That's why I stopped hanging out around you. When the JYPE trainees began to hang out around you, I found it a chance to be friends with you without being picked on but since then, I must admit, I was a brat and I became the 'it girl' I never wanted to be. I guess people really do rub off on you." Prim sipped at her latte, careful not to hurt her nose, which was still bandaged up before checking the time.

"You have five minutes left," she told her simply, earning a sigh from Nayeon.

"I guess I can't earn your forgiveness as easily as I had hoped."

"I can tell you mean your apology, but you must understand just how much everything you did to me hurt-"

"And I do. I really, really do. I regret everything. I hate myself for doing that to you. Trust me, Prim, I'm being sincere. You don't need to forgive me, not after all the stuff I put you through. In fact, I'd understand if you didn't. I might even be on your side but please, at least, understand." Nayeon clasped her hands together, staring at Prim with pure agony in her eyes as tears begin to slip out of her eyes. It pained Primrose to see her first friend so broken but was still unsure about trusting her.

"Nayeon," Prim uttered as she stretched her arm out and wiped the girl's tears.

"Is my time up?" She asked, more tears escaping despite her efforts to stop them.

"It was up five minutes ago." Nayeon sighed before nodding, signalling the girl to leave but she didn't. "Tell me the truth," she said instead. "You liked Minho, didn't you?"

"Yeah...but you two make a good couple anyway. I'm sorry for being such a horrible person."

"Love does things to people..."

"I wish I could go back in time."

"Going back in time is impossible but setting things right isn't. You should speak to him, in fact, speak to all of them just like how you did to me."

"Do they hate me?"

"Does it matter? I mean, I hated you and look where I am."

"Do you still hate me, though?" Prim sighed.

"No."

"Then...can we be friends again?" Her eyes were full of hope but something deep down was making her hesitate longer than she should. Was it because she was scared of what might happen in the future or scared of what had already happened?

Okay, so first of all, I'm so sorry I haven't updated in a while, I've had writer's block but thankfully, now I'm back. I'll try to update later on today and probably tomorrow to make up for all the days I've missed. 

Secondly, I want to thank you guys for 1.5K views and 92 votes. Honestly, this means so much to me and I can't thank you enough. Please continue to support my story.

Last but not least, I'm planning to complete this story before the new year and hopefully by that point, I'll have another story to present you guys with. I'm thinking of having a Stray Kids/Got7 fanfiction but I'm not sure about it...
