Cherishing you ♡ - Kang Daniel

×[¤ Chapter 4 ¤] ×

○ You go girl ○

"So how is it going with you and..." Jihoon asked, not remember her name quite well.

"Fayre," Daniel muttered resting his head on the lunch table. He was in utter confusion about his situation? and there was no way he could explain it to anyone else.

He didn't quite get why he said yes to Fay's proposal. At that time she looked so pretty and pure in his eyes, that he just said yes without thinking.

Almost as an instinct inside him said "Say yes! Make her yours!" What's even more surprising is, that they continued to chat through messages. He found it pretty easy to talk to her about their daily lives, and hobbies. He even sent her a picture off Rooney and Peter.

Confused Minhyun raised an eyebrow at Seongwoo, who just shrugged.

"To be honest Daniel, why did you say yes?" Jaehwan asked, beign a guy who valued honesty "Especially if you don't like her." his voice turned hushed.

"I don't know~," Daniel whined surprising them all, as even his food was untouched.

"Wow speak off the devil." Daehwi whistled surprised, as the canteen doors opened and Risa walked.

"Where's Fayre?" Woojin asked curiously, looking around.

Just then the doors opened once again, and an unrecognizable girl walked towards Risa with a smile.

"Who is that?" Daehwi gasped surprised.

"I'm not sure, but she's pretty," Sungwoon mumbled surprised, he was sure, he remembered almost all of the girls in school.

A soft murmur started rising in the canteen, everyones focus turning towards the new girl.

Risa and the girl strutted through the canteen searching for a table. Gently saying no to all the people inviting them to their table. Wich happened to be mostly guys.

That was until Seongwoo lifted his hand, and waved at the girls. Grabbing their attention, he said in a rather loud voice "Hey, come sit with us!"

He was quite curious who the new girl was, and wanted to know, if Risa ditched her old friend.

"Sorry?" Guanling almost choked on his bread, when he heard what Seongwoo said.

Risa enthusiastically waved back at him, before she dragged the other girl along with her.

"Hey, guys." Risa smiled at them, as she put down her tray and looked up to see were Fay was.

The other girl got held back by a classmate, who was complimenting her on her hair. Fay could only nod happily, because she wasn't used to all these compliments.

"Fayre!" Risa called out, making everyone's head snap towards the direction she was looking at. Even Daniel - in his apathetic state, looked up.

Fay quickly ended the conversation, and hurried to the table plopping down.

"Hey." She gave the guys a quick smile, before focusing on her food. Due to her having to help the teacher before class, she only had fifteen minutes to eat.

"Fayre?" Minhyun carefully asked, and Fay and Risa looked at him confused.

"No way, were's the girl with emo bangs and a dark aura?" Daehwi blurted out, before anyone could stop him.

"Gone with the barbers." Fay chuckled, making snipping movements with her fingers, not minding it at all. Although she was trying to ignore Daniels intense stare on her.

"See I told you!" Risa said triumphantly "If you had kept your hair like you did in middle school, it would've been perfect."

"Uh right, I was too comfortable with my Sadako hair cut okay?" Fay slightly sassed "I did whatever I wanted with MY hair. Because it's MY hair."

"I hope you don't mind me asking..." Jihoon started carefully "But is that really you Fayre?"

"Yep, the real Park Fayre!" Fay smiled at him, and everyone was flabbergasted ny the difference. For a second her whole face lit up.

"She's pretty right?" Risa said gleefully, making Fay choke on her sandwich.

She noticed, how some of the guys were trying to give Fay subtle glances from other tables. Risa couldn't help but feel proud in her friend's place "You're slaying queen!"

"Ri!" Fay protested, but she got even more flustered when everyone nodded their heads. As if someone wanted to save her, her phone started ringing.

"Oh." Fay said looking at the caller ID, and before anyone could ask who, she picked up "Hey Leo?" Fay said grinning at Risa, who became alert immediately.

"Put him on speaker." Risa immediately begged softly, and Fay did her a pleasure although the volume was still low.

"Hey chubs, how you doing?" Leo asked in a cheery voice "Saw you finally got your haircut?".

"Chubs?!" Daniel questioned confused.

"Did Risa send you a snap?" Fay chuckled, already guessing who had sent the sneaky pictures.

"Yep, mostly of all the products, she wanted to try tho." Leo chuckled too "It was quite cute.".

"Oh my god." Risa hid her face in her hands, as a slight blush appeared on her cheeks.

"What's wrong with her?" Jisung questioned confused.

"Leaving that aside why did you call?" Fay came to the main point, taking another sip off her water "I Don't think you just called for my hair cut?".

"Oh right, I'm coming home this weekend so wait for me." Leo explained, "I'm staying for four days.".

Fay could see Risa's ear perk up visibly,  and she knew, the weekends would be spent at her home.

"Uh, what are you? My lover?" Fay rolled her eyes as she imitated his voice "Wait for me" as if I'm going anywhere. Even if I did you have the keys right?".

"Who's this Leo guy and why does he have her house keys." Daniel thought confused and conflicted.

"I lost them," Leo said in a sheepish tune, and Fay let out a deep sigh.

"Guys, what do you think of this purple sweater?" Daehwi held up his phone, but no one paid attention to him.

"Just hang up, I can't deal with you right now." She shook her head "Anyways, got to go, see you tomorrow.".

"Yeah, love you bye." Leo replied still cheerfull "Greetings to Riri.".

"Will do, love you too, bye," Fay answered, before hanging up the call.

"Love you too?" Daniel thought, his head would fall off by the tornado of thoughts raging trough his mind.

"Greetings to Riri." Fay winked at a flustered Risa, finding the situation really funny "My place this weekend?".

"Obviously." Risa smiled standing up, followed by Fay as they both had finished their food.

"Uhm can I ask you something?" Jinyoung said gesturing at Fay.

"Sure." Fay nodded at him to go on.

"Are you maybe related to Park Leo?" Jinyoung questioned.

"Oh yeah, he's my older brother." Fay nodded in agreement "The one on the phone right now.".

"Wow." Woojin gasped with big eyes.

"See you later guys." The girls waved at them, before walking away.

"Oh right Daehwi." Fay turned around as if she remembered something "That sweater would look awesome on you.".

"T-thank you." Daehwi stutterd, taken by surprise about the fact that she heard him, despite the phone call. Yet Fay was already too far away to hear him.

"I think this might get more complicated than you thought Daniel." Jisung replied with a unnaturally serious face for him "Everyone knows Park Leo, and there seems to be a connection between him and Risa.".

Daniel let out a deep sigh, his life only seemed to get more complicated by the second...
