My Three Handsome Knights

Chapter 12

Key went home late that night! He was really worried that he wouldn't leave me.

"That's a good friend of yours?" Onew commented.

"What were you guys doing in the room? I heard screaming?" Taemin asked looking at me wide wide eyes. He looked anxious.

I felt bad so I took him to the living room and sat him down on the sofa and explained everything to him.

"Really?" He asked and laughed.

"Are you certain thatKey wouldn't tell anyone, I mean I know he is your childhood friend but I doubt him!" Minho said.

"Minho Oppa, he can be trusted more than anyone I know in this world!" I replied.

That's night was the best night of my life. I slept so peacefully now that someone I trusted knew about the secret of three boys living in my house.

I was well and I went to school the next day. This time, we took a ride in Minho's car and Onew and a Taemin joined us.

"Look who's trying to fit in with the popular squad?" Ren commented as we stepped into the hall.

"Ignore him!" Minho whispered as we walked on but all of a sudden Ren grabbed my hand.
I didn't mean it but I flipped him and threw him to the ground.

Everyone gasped.

"Oh! My God, are you okay? I didn't mean that!" I bit my lip and helped him up.

"What just happened?" He asked.

What did I do? No, this has to be a dream? Why was I so mad at him? I was in trouble now? Everyone would know about me and I would have to run for my life.

No, that's not what happened.

"How dare you ignore me, what are you? the Empress  of this school". Ren asked coyly.

"No, and neither at you!" I snapped. "And FYI, I was just trying not to get into your way, loser!" I added snatching my hand away but he only gripped it tighter.

"Loser? Who's the loser? Did you just call me a loser?" Ren asked with rage in his voice.

Okay! Bad choice! Shouldn't have talked back or tried to reason and called him a .... yeah *gulp* loser!
"You that's who!" I answered and then it hit me. I was being silly.

"Leave her alone Ren, if you know what's best for you!" Minho said.

"Or what Cousin Freak-a-Zoid?" Ren asked bringing his face close to mine.

"Don't call him that!" I said struggling.

"Ren, you let go this instance, I told you not to mess with her!" We heard a feminine voice.
In relief, I turned around to spot Jimin.

"Jimin, What are you, stay back!" Minho defended her.

"I'm fine Minho, it's Sun-hee that needs help!" Jimin replied stepping in front of him.

"Ren, you heard her, let me go!" I said pulling my hand.

He grabbed my waist and pulled me close as I placed my hand on his chest.

"Apologize, get on your knees now and apologize, I promise that I'll let this go and I won't bother you, it's all I want!" Ren whispered or rather growled into my ear.

He was crossing the line and invading personal space and why was Minho, Onew and Taemin not doing anything. It's one thing to save yourself but another when you've got bodyguards present.

"Stop it Ren, you've got no right to treat a student like that!" Taemin said as he came up but Ren pushed him away.

"Taemin!" Jimin called as she helped him up.

"Don't get between us dancer boy!" Ren said.

"How dare you...." Onew started but didn't finish because I stepped on Ren's feet.
He let go and howled in pain.

"What did you do that for?" He asked hoping around in one leg.

The others present gasped.

"Because you don't know when to give up!" I said. I wanted to kick him in the groin but Minho grabbed me and dragged me away.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked the guys.
"You were....." I started.

"Supposed to protect you! Yeah we know!" Minho said.

"If only you'd been paying attention instead of dreaming about Jimin!" I sighed.

"Thinking of me?" Jimin asked appearing out of nowhere.

"What? No! Why would...." Minho began stuttering as Jimin ignored him and approached me.

"Did he hurt you? I talked to him twice but he doesn't want to listen. I think Key is right, stay out of his way!" Jimin said sitting looking at me.

She looked really worried for me.

"I was staying out of his way, you want him to grab a hold of me and me not to speak for myself!" I said whining.

"Oh! It's okay, don't worry, we'll keep each other safe, okay!" She consoled me as we hugged each other.

Taemin sat by me and put his hand on my shoulder. I looked at him.

"Thanks!" I uttered to him as he smiled at me.

"I'll keep you safe!" He whispered so only I could hear. I nodded my head and he bit his lip and got up.

"Sun-hee, can I talk to you in my office?" The principal called at lunch time, I nodded and went in.

"Yes?" I asked exploring my surroundings. The office had well furnished wooden walls. And a desk with pencils in a cup. Pens, a laptop and a sign that said "Principle", on it.

It was a bit weird since I haven't been called here during lunchtime before.

"As you're aware, we have our school dance coming up and Irene had planned it for the last three years and we think, the dance committee and I, we think, you should be the one doing it." The principal said.

"Dance committee, but I hardly know anyone on that committee?" I said.

"Isn't Jimin a part?" The principal asked.

"Oh, so she suggested it!" I realized.

"No, but we decided together, Irene's been doing it and she's excellent but you should plan it! We want I hear from you". The principal said.

"I'm sorry but I can't! Besides Irene is a better planner. People love her!" I sighed and apologized. And turned to leave.

"On one condition!" She called.

"What?" I asked turning around.

"If you don't want to plan than there a condition!"

"What is it?"

"You'll have to show up to the dance, you've been so isolated and it's not good for you. Take a risk and socialize. You need this. Don't skip this dance like all the last ones". She explained.

"I know, but I'm not good at dancing!" I remarked.

"You're not bad either. Ask Taemin, he's a good dancer and can help you!" The principal said.

"No way! I'll be there, thank you!" I said and ran out of the office.

No way was I letting Taemin teach me. He didn't need to know that there was a dance, also I was afraid that he would kill me. Through practice.
