-Third Person-

"You should talk to her, don't just avoid her, hyung." Chenle told Renjun who's deeply staring at the lonely girl on her table, just like how he stared at her when the first time he saw her.

"I don't know how to approach her, Chenle. Every time, every time I try, I couldn't hear anything but my heartbeat who's pounding really loud and every time, I feel the awkwardness so how would I talk to her?" He answered, frustrated, running his fingers through his hair.

"Really? Don't overreacting hyung, the attempt kiss just happened last night." Chenle said making Renjun to roll his eyes on him, he just ruined his mood.

"Let me get this fixed." Chenle stood up and walked towards Seohyun's table.

He cleared his throat to get her attention and when she did, she just smiled at him and gestured him to take a seat.

"Good day, noona." He greeted with a wide smile.

She just responded with a small nod and smile, continuing her food.

"Uhh, let's get this straight noona, you misunderstood it." He then looked to Renjun after his statement for Seohyun to get it but as she look at Renjun, someone approached him, it was a girl.

"Yeah, I misunderstood it, in fact I assumed." She replied, nonchalantly, looking away from Renjun.

She actually saw them before she went to the cafeteria, talking to each other while walking, Renjun blushed that time when the girl grabbed his hand, looking at his cut. So what would she think? The girl made him that way.

"That's not what you think noona! She's j--" he got cut off when Seohyun stood up, slamming her palms on the table as she walked away.

But before she could leave the cafeteria, she once again looked at Renjun secretly and he's just eyeing her while the girl in front of him is talking. Seohyun witnessed how he look back to the girl and chuckle on something, blushing again.

Chenle can't just reach her because she's too fast and looks even angry to the point that she could slap the girl who's with Renjun right away. So he just walked back their table.

Renjun gave him a 'what happened' look but Chenle just shrugged saying, "Don't know either."

He didn't said it because he doesn't want Renjun to be upset, he decided to say it when his hyung is already okay around her so that he would feel better.

Seohyun ran as fast as she can, she's planning to go to the washroom because that's the only place she knows where to go when you're about to cry. She was holding her tears until someone bumped into her.

"Oh, Seohyun, are you okay?" Asked Jaemin as he look down on her.

But her tears seemed unstoppable when Jaemin asked if she was okay, she cried while wiping every tears from her eyes like a child. His eyes widened, doesn't even know what to do, if would he hug her? Or what?

"What is it? Are you hurt?" He examined her but she doesn't look like she have any physical pain until he realized how she talked earlier on class when he was asking her about her project, she was obviously not in the mood that whole time.

"I know a place, let's go." He said and grabbed her wrist, walking to the rooftop.

"Come on, say it. Is it about Renjun-hyung?" He asked, closing the door.

She were still wiping and wiping the unstoppable tears coming out from her eyes as she nodded. "I-I don't k-know, I a-assumed."

"Assumed of what?" Jaemin asked, waiting for her to continue.

"I don't know why do I feel this way around him, it started when I slept with him at Donghyuck's house, I know we kept it a secret but we actually did and I regretted sleeping with him," She started.

Jaemin looked down, all the time he thought Renjun slept on the guess room that's why he wasn't with them as what he explained but they lied. He just shrugged it off because he know he can't bring that back.

"If I would've just slept by myself I won't feel this way," Jaemin started thinking inappropriately about her sentence.

"Yesterday, I thought he was going to kiss me but he didn't, I assumed, Jaemin." She added making her tears flow ever unstoppable.

Jaemin hugged her to comfort her, though he was a bit hurt, he can't do anything, she felt that way, he can't change them.

"Do I like him?" She asked between her tears, while Jaemin was tapping her back.

"You probably do,"
