Aera

On the day of the school trip Mr Lee offered me a ride to school. I was on my way to the bus stop with my pink luggage in tow when he and Chan pulls up beside me.

The car ride was interesting. At times Chan would be singing to his American music, other times his father would join him, a lot of the time they would start talking over the music to the point where they were shouting at each other since they both refuse to turn the music down.

They must be really close, I thought.

We pulled into Mr Lee's usual parking spot then all get out of the car and took our belongings with us.

"Go see the others at the back of the school where the bus will be waiting," Mr Lee instructs. "I'll just go get the role from the office."

I suddenly started to feel nervous. This trip is going to make me look like a loser in front of Chan. It's going to make me look like the outcast that I am. "Let's go," I hesitantly lead Chan to the back of the school.

Most of the student were already there, standing outside the bus. When they finally notice us they stopped and gawked at Chan.

"Don't worry I get stared at a lot," Chan whispers subtly. "I'm just that handsome."

I 'tsk' in my head and kept walking until we were close enough to the students that we didn't look out of place.

Unluckily, we were really close to the 'weird' group of boys in my class. They were known for doing insanely stupid stuff. The scale of stupidity went from causing embarrassment to themselves to putting themselves at such risk to the point where they could have died. The ring leader of these boys, Kim Taehyung, once jumped out of our classroom window (which was on the third floor) and onto the roof of the library because he got dared to by his fellow idiots.

"Who's this?" Jeon Jungkook, aka, one of the idiots, asks.

The seven idiots were now surrounding us. 

"I'm Lee Chan," Chan smiles happily. "I'm your teacher's son and I'll be coming on the trip too!"

The boys starts being buddy buddy's with him and starts complimenting him on his looks.

This was so weird I wanted to get out of here.

"Excuse me, coming through," Momo shoves the tall Namjoon out of her way and stands in front of Chan. "You're Mr Lee's son?!" She asks a little too excitedly.

"Oh, hey Momo," he smiles awkwardly.

"Yah! Why are you being shy? We used to dance together!" Her smile was genuine and... nice? "Anyway, cool seeing you again. I'll see you later alright?" She puts a hand on his shoulder, pats it once then turns to leave.

Chan watches her as her hips sway side to side a little too obviously overdone.

"How do you know her?" Jimin puts a hand on Chan's shoulder as they both watch her together.

"We were in the same class last year, but she got kicked out," Chan shrugs but it seemed like he knew more.

All apart form Taehyung now surround Chan and start bombarding him with questions about himself. They were probably trying to get on his good side since he's Mr Lee's son.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Taehyung whispers down at me.

I shake my head, "were just good friends."

-

After an hour and a half of driving, we took a short toilet break at a petrol station. We all get out and do some stretches.

"Let's go get some food," Chan puts his arm over my shoulder as we walk into the small convenience store. He takes us straight into the chocolate isle. He then starts grabbing two of pretty much every chocolate bar there was then heads straight to the counter.

I stand behind him as he waits his turn to pay.

"That's not very healthy," Momo suddenly appears beside him and nudges him playfully.

He chuckles then inanities a conversation with her about his favourite chocolates.

I couldn't stand listening to Momo speak so nicely. Why couldn't she be like that all the time? I sigh and leave the store. I get back into the bus and sat back down at Chan and I's spot, three seats behind the bus driver. I put my head on the window and watched as the cars pass by on the highway.

After a minute or two I feel a light drop on my lap and then another and another and another.

I look down to see four packets of chocolate pies piled onto my lap. I then look up to see Taehyung with his head tilted to the side.

"Why so gloomy?" He sits beside me.

"I'm just tired." I say bluntly.

"Mmm, right okay," he nods his head but he wasn't believing it. He grabs a packet off my lap and tears it open. "Eat your sad ass away." He shoves the pie into my lips.

I push his hand away and wiped my now chocolate stained mouth with the back of my hand. "Don't do that!" I said a little annoyed.

"Sheesh," he shakes his head slowly. "Grumpy!" He takes a bite of the pie aggressively.

I look back out the window and ignore him.

"Hey Tae," I hear Chan but I don't look.

"Just eat your damn pies, sad sack!"

I hear Taehyung stand and leave. I then feel Chan lightly graze his arm on mine as he sits down beside me.

"What was that all about?"

I shrug.

"He seems to like you."

I shake my head.

"Do you like him?"

I shake my head.

"Why aren't you talking?"

I shrug.

"Are you mad I was talking to Momo?"

I didn't react.

He sighs. "So you are." He puts his head on my shoulder. "Tell me not to go near her and I won't."

I suddenly felt bad now. Even if Momo was not a nice person to me and some other people, she was still being nice to Chan. I wasn't sure if she meant it but still... I couldn't tell him the truth. "I don't have anything against her."

"Are you sure?" He says softly.

I nod. "I don't know her that well."

"Good," he says seriously. His head comes off my shoulder. "Try not to get involved with her, alright?"

I look at him in confusion. I thought he liked her...

His jaw was clenched. "I know her a lot better than you do."
