||Kim Jungwoo||

I shamefully walked out the building with Shiwoo taking large strides right next to me. The smile never once left his face. "You seem too happy of a dad for a son who just got suspended."

"No. No. I am very furious with you," he continued to smile. "You're grounded, Mister!" Now it was clear as day he was joking. This man in front of me was a walking joke and I couldn't stand it.

He was nothing like the father who truly raised me. The one I haven't seen in almost a week, that one. At least he actually disciplined me. I don't know what Shiwoo is doing.

"Oh. And you left your phone in the cup holder." I rolled my eyes while sliding in the front seat to collect the device.

[two hours earlier]

I don't know why Lucas was still tailing me like the police. I gave him a ride to school now what else does he want? He's been talking nonstop and my short answers aren't giving him any hints.

He screwed up big time last night. Not only did he let Taeil mark him up but I'm pretty sure he stood there and told Siyeon he liked her. He loves her.

Speak of the fucking devil. There she is with her boyfriend she tells everyone she loves. I hope Mark dumps her in the worst of ways.

It didn't take her long to look over at me with a smile. One that would soon be wiped straight off.

In that moment I was so filled with revenge that nothing else mattered. Lucas' lips were on display and I had Siyeon's full attention.

I'm not going to lie and say I don't feel a bit weak for this boy.

But the bell was going to ring soon and I had to prove a point. So I did it. I leaned in and kissed Wong Lucas. His lips were dead for a split second and I could sense him falling deeper into it after a while.

My heart started pounding through my chest but I couldn't let it show. That's when I pulled away.

Siyeon, mouth wide open as she looked to be the only one who was paying attention to us. I wonder if she would even tell her friends. Maybe that would look too suspicious on her end since she does have Mark.

"What was-"

"I don't want Taeil giving you any more hickeys. I don't want you to tell Siyeon you love her and I don't want Taeyong planting shit in your ear. So from now on when you think about either one of them, remember it was my lips pressed against yours, not theirs."

I started my stride to my locker which eventually meant I'd have to pass up Siyeon. No surprise she was watching me. For a moment she was even following me. So I went inside the men's room.

I couldn't face her yet. I know she'd really let me have it.

—

"Had to come out one day." I look up and see her planted outside my first class. The same class I have with Lucas. "You're a piece of shit, Kim Jungwoo."

"Oh wow! You know me." I pause in front of her to hear what she has to say. I'm not always rude. "What is it, Siyeon? Waiting for your boyfriend? He has this class you know."

"Oh I know. Just got done walking him to it. Lucas is also in there," she smirked. "I told Mark you slapped him although the whole fucking school is aware you both locked lips like freaks. But I figured if Mark doesn't like you then you don't have a chance with Lucas." She stepped up to me as if she was a threat.

Siyeon weighed the size of my pinky. This girl wasn't at all scary.

I only shook my head at her light threats. "If you have a problem then you should confide in your boyfriend. And if you had a brain you would know Lucas is a gay boy. Taeil has a better chance with him than you do."

"Quit the shit, Jungwoo. I know you were in the closet. The light from your phone gave it all away. I was drunk but not enough to forget about your ugly face sitting across from me."

"Well I'm going to get to class." But that's when she did it. Shoved her stupid phone in my face as the video played right in front of my eyes. I could almost choke but I didn't move. Beside my eye twisting from the irritation this girl brought to me. "What are you going to do with it?" I try and snatch the phone from her but she's quick. "Delete it. You could hurt-"

"Back off, Kim Jungwoo or I'll send this to Taeyong and God knows he is friends with over half the fucking school." Her face was beet red and I knew she was furious. But this was a deal I couldn't take.

"No," I reply. Quickly remembering how his lips felt against mine. "I can't do that."

"Jungwoo," she urged but I ignored her. This time I really had to. If she posted it then it could be something Lucas and I work out together. The video does have everything to do with us.

"Do what you want, Siyeon. But the consequences always come back around."

[present]

I don't know why I covered her ass. I should have let Lucas go at it with her. But if I didn't say something then we would have been there all day. I knew Lucas would never rat out Taeyong and I would never do that to Lucas.

I was only protecting him and his feelings for me. No one else.

"You're suspended!?" My mother said the moment I took my shoes off. She still looked as sick as she did this morning. Obviously drinking again.

"Heeru, calm down." Shiwoo called out from the kitchen. "I see you've replaced the black coffee with soju." I watched him examine the fresh coffee and it hadn't been touched. "I can't help you if you don't follow through the steps of getting sober for once."

"She's a drunk, Shiwoo. It's going to take more than a cup of coffee."

He nodded in agreement. "And I got a letter in the mail saying you missed your weekly therapy session, Jungwoo. What are you going to therapy for?"

I snatched the mail off the counter and found them all ripped open. "This isn't your home or your mail to touch!" I slammed the papers down on the ground. "How could you!"

"Therapy?" My mother said while rolling around on the couch. "I thought your father... I mean Jeongsi, said he was done sending you to that."

"I asked for it back. It really helps me. And I haven't been going due to school and freaking..." don't say his name. "...you! You're drunk all the time that I feel like I have to come home and make sure you're still alive."

"Well then you can go now. I have it under control." Shiwoo smiles while pouring another cup of coffee.

"How do I trust you won't leave again. And what about my real father! Where the hell is he?"

"Fucking a slut," she spat and curled into a deeper ball. "He might just go ahead and marry that bitch." All these things were leading up to one key action. "We'll have to move out of his shitty condo."

And there it was.
