"I think I need to pee."

Minho stops walking and glares at me. "Oh, yeah?"

I pout at his sarcastic response. "Do they really want to meet me?"

"Yes."

"You shouldn't have made them buy our lunch. Should I run to the cafeteria real quick?"

"No need."

"What if it's not enough?"

"If the food's not enough, then let's eliminate people."

I can't help but pout even more. "Minho!"

He doesn't answer and just pulls me with him.

Minho will introduce me to his friends today. It's so ironic because he still doesn't want to be friends with me! We've already shared a lot of good and bad memories but we're not friends yet.

We reach the rooftop and wait for the others to come. I keep walking back and forth in an attempt to calm my nerves, but I almost trip when Minho slightly kicks me.

"What was that for?"

"Stop it, you're making me dizzy."

I'm really nervous so I resume walking back and forth. Minho must've had enough of it, that's why he puts his hands on my shoulders to steady me. He sighs as I pout at him.

"Hey."

"Hmm?"

"It's fine if you don't want to meet them, I won't force you into something you don't want to do." He looks away and that's when I notice that he's just as antsy as I am.

"Alright then..." I say, but I immediately regret it because he looks so disappointed.

Lee Minho, when did you learn how to show your emotions?

"Just kidding! I'd love to meet them but I'm just so nervous." I giggle. "I got you, right?"

"Shut up." He groans and covers his face.

"You looked funny!"

"Stop it." He glares.

I do a zipping motion on my lips but I'm still laughing. Minho just shakes his head at my amusement. We sit down after I overcome my nervousness and stare at the sky.

"I only realised this... Why do you go here on the rooftop when you're afraid of heights?"

"Why do you go here on the rooftop when I can just push you off so easily?"

I pout. "Fine! I promise I won't mention it again."

Minho smirks. "Good girl."

We both look back up at the sky. It's so clear and refreshing. I hope meeting his friends would turn out as pretty as the view.

"You know, the rooftop--" I raise my hands when he whips his head to me so fast and glares so hard. "No, I wasn't talking about that!"

"Tsk." He scoffs, and I giggle as he squints his eyes even more.

"I was gonna say the rooftop's the perfect place for stargazing. I've always wanted to do that but you can't really see the stars in the city, and I don't have close friends to do it with."

"We can actually stargaze in the daylight because the Sun is also a star," he says.

"I know, I'm not that clueless," I say but still stare at it, making me dizzy after a few seconds.

"See? You're so gullible, no wonder why we're not compatible."

"But we just stargazed together! Does that mean we're friends now?"
