•Hongseok's POV•

I had no idea what was going on.
Who was this guy?
And why did Yerin look so nervous?
- we need to talk.
The guy said.

Yerin just looked at him for a moment.
And then she ran.

Ok I definitely had no idea what was going on.
The guy ran after Yerin, and I was about to do the same, but Seunghee stopped me.
- what are you doing?
I asked her.
- just wait a second.
She said.

About a minute later, the guy came back, dragging Yerin behind him.
He was dragging her by her ears.
- I swear to god if you don't let go I'm gonna carve your eyes out with a spoon and shove them down your throat.
Yerin said.

Oh my god that even scared me.
The guy let go of Yerin, and laughed.
- you haven't changed at all.
He said, and patted her head.
Ok who is he and why is he touching my girlfriend?

- I'm sorry, who are you exactly?
I asked him.
- I'm her brother, who the heck are you?
He answered.
- I'm her..friend.
I said.

I didn't want to take the chance on telling him who I really was.
He might hit me or something.

- now, can we talk without you running away like a child?
He asked Yerin.
- I'm gonna run away like a child.
Yerin said, and tried to run, but her brother grabbed her sweater.
- I mean, let's talk.
She said and laughed awkwardly.

Cute.
- you guys should probably go somewhere else.
Seunghee told me and Yuto.
I hadn't even noticed he was there.
- we can play video games in Seunghee's room.
Yuto said.
- or we could go for a walk and hold hands.
He said and laughed.
- shut up.

•Yerin's POV•

After Yuto and hongseok left, me, my brother and Seunghee sat down on the couches.
Seunghee made some tea, and brought fruit as well.
- I'm sure you have a lot of questions.
Seunghee told my brother.
- actually I have a question.
I said.
- well?
My brother asked.
- how did you even find out I was staying here?
I asked him.
- I went to visit you to give you your birthday present, but your manager told me you had broken your contact. He was pretty rude actually.
He answered.
- I didn't break my contact. I just ended it.
I said.
- but why?
He asked me.
- because I don't want to be an idol.
I said.

There was of course a lot of other reasons, but if I told my brother, he would probably kill my former manager.
- I think you should come home.
My brother said.
- I have a job here.
I said.
- you don't need a job. I can take care of you.
He said.
- she's my backup dancer.
Seunghee said.
- really?
My brother asked her.
- yeah. We're even going to KCON in a month.
She answered.
- wait, we are?
I asked her.
- did I forget to tell you?
She asked, and laughed.

After we finished talking, my brother had to leave because he had a night shift.
I hated that he had to work. He already looked so tired.

It was all my fault.
He had insisted I go to a private high school.
And get ballet lessons.
So he had a lot of debt.
but I was going to save all my money and pay him back one day.

- it was nice meeting you.. wait what's your name again?
Seunghee said, making my brother laugh.
- it's Kim Dong-Hyuk.
He said, and smiled.

After Seunghee went back to the living room, my brother hugged me, and laughed.
- are you making fun of me?
I asked him.
- no. I'm just so happy.
He said.
- why?
I asked him.
- because you always wanted to be a dancer. And now you are.
He said.
- sometimes I think I'm dreaming.
I told him.
- here.
He said, and pulled out a present from his bag.
- what's this?
I asked him.
- it's your birthday gift. Obviously.
He said, and rolled his eyes.

The gift was a teddy bear with a ninja costume.
Awesome.

I said goodbye to Dong-Hyuk, and was about to close the door, but then I had an idea.
- oppa!
I yelled after him.
- what?
He asked.
- that guy. He's my boyfriend.
I said, and then giggled.

Then I quickly closed the door, and locked it.
That's what he gets for pulling my ear.

- he's going to kill me now, isn't he?
Hongseok asked me.

I didn't even notice him entering the hallway.
- probably.
I said, and laughed.
- it's not funny.
He said.

When we remembered we hadn't eaten our takeout, we heated it in the microwave, and ate it while watching tv.
Actually hongseok was watching tv.
And I was watching him.
- stop staring at me.
He said.
Oh god he noticed.
- I'm not.

It was getting late, so we went to my room to sleep.

Hongseok had brought some outfits, and put them in my closet.
- don't worry. I'm not moving in. Yet.
He said.
- you know I'm going to use them when you're not here?
I said.
- why don't you use them now?
He said.

I decided to put on one of his sweaters, and it was actually pretty long on me.
Which was weird considering we were the same hight.
- you're so pretty.
Hongseok told me, definitely making me blush.
Suddenly he took a photo of me with his phone.
- not cool.
I said.
- I never said I was cool.
