Woozi's POV
"Did you still want to get lunch after school?"
"Yeah. A cute date would be nice." She bites her lip, smiling cutely.
"Well, how about we stay in tonight and eat junk food instead?" I smile, intertwining our fingers.
She gets up off the wall and walks closer to me. She nods with a smile and I smile back, licking my lips.
"We never kiss in public but I can tell you want to kiss me right now." She smirks.
"It's very tempting. I can tell you that." I whisper, almost closing the gap between us.
"You guys are gross." Seokmin makes a face as he walks up to us.
I groan as I turn towards him. Beside him is Seungkwan and Chan who're also making a disgusted expression.
"You're just jealous." I raise my eyebrows.
"As if! I could kiss Aelia any day if I wanted." Seungkwan says.
"Um..." she raises an eyebrow.
"Oh please! You'd love every second of it."
"If that's what you want to believe, Boo." She pats his cheek before walking towards the table.
"So you wouldn't kiss me?!" He runs after her.
"Aelia would never. Seungkwan is too much like a brother to her." Seokmin points out to me.
"Yeah, I know. It's Seungkwan who I'm worried about." I️ say.
"Aren't you worried about all of us, Jihoon, including me? We've all liked her before so aren't you scared one of us will accidentally confess." Chan asks me in a quiet voice as we take our time walking behind the two.
I think about it for a few seconds, pursing my lips. I open my mouth to speak but close my mouth and look at the innocent boy. He looks at me with curious child-like eyes and it makes me smile. Chan would never hurt Aelia. He's like her own child. I'm not scared of him going onto her.
"I'm not worried about all of you. There's a good few who wouldn't do anything. But there's a handful that I really need to keep an eye on." I look back at Aelia and Seungkwan who're now pushing each other on the floor.
How and when did that even happen...?
"Is one of them Mingyu?" Seokmin asks.
I look at him and scan his expression to see if he's serious or not. He is. I bite my cheek and sigh.
"Yeah. He's one of them."
"I don't know, Jihoon. It doesn't seem like he likes her but he always acts like a child around her so I never know." Chan frowns.
"And that's exactly why he's one of the ones I'm watching."
We arrive at the table just as I finish the sentence. Seungkwan is still being chased around the table by Aelia and the others look confused.
"Do you guys know why she's chasing him this time?" Jisoo asks.
"Not a clue." I tell him as I watch the two.
Mingyu grabs onto Aelia's waist as she comes around and she groans in pain from the impact.
"Why're you chasing him, Aelz?" He asks.
"This boy tried to kiss me then tell me I wasn't good enough to kiss! I'm gonna kill him!" She squirms in his arms.
"This wouldn't have happened if we didn't catch you two almost making out!" Seungkwan points at me accusingly as he hides behind Seungcheol.
"You guys almost kissed at school?" Seungcheol snickers, "That's new."
"We just don't like kissing in public. Leave us alone, Seungcheol." I groan, crossing my arms.
"It's tempting I can tell you that." Seokmin mimics me.
I glare at him and he squeaks, also hiding behind Seungcheol.
"We need another day out, guys. Especially cause these two lovebirds don't want to hang out with us anymore." Wonwoo complains.
"Hey! Get a girlfriend and you'll understand!" Aelia yells at him.
He rolls his eyes but I know the truth. All of the boys do.
"Wonwoo is right. Let's all suggest things to do!" Hansol smiles.
"I say the arcade!" Chan says with excitement.
"That's lame." Soonyoung says.
"You're lame." Aelia defends Chan.
"Hehe~ I was joking! I don't mind that idea!" He tries to brush it off.
"Dork." She shakes her head.
"What about the movies and maybe a park day?" Jisoo suggests.
"No, I think we need something not relaxing but exciting and adventurous almost." Minghao says.
"What about paint balling?" Jeonghan suggests, looking up from his clipboard.
"Yes!" I scream, making everyone look at me in confusion.
"Actually, I like that idea too. I wouldn't mind shooting you all with paint guns." Aelia smirks.
"Ooh I agree." Seungcheol raises his hand.
"Okay, I'm actually scared now." Jun backs towards Jisoo.
"Don't be such a baby, Junhui. It'll be fun." Aelia laughs.
"And that's what I'm scared about..." he mumbles.
Minghao talks to him in Chinese as he wraps his arm around his shoulders and Jun's face flushes. He pushes his face away and Minghao laughs.
"Let's do it Saturday. I have some things to do on Sunday." Jeonghan suggests.
"I have some studying to do on Sunday anyways but doing that on Saturday would be a good way to start off the weekend." I smirk.
"Now I'm even more terrified." Seokmin gulps.
