AN: I'm back! I'm sorry it's been like 2 months :( I'm so happy to give you guys this chapter today!
(Sorry if it's not that good, I'm a little rusty)

After I bit his shoulder,Kino screamed and grabbed my hair, making me scream as well.
So I grabbed his hair too, and pulled hard.
- let go!
Kino yelled.
- you first, psycho!
I yelled back.
- I'm a psycho? You bit me.
Kino said.
- you tried to kill me!
I yelled.
- You literally just said you would kill me!
Kino yelled back.

I stopped pulling his hair for a second, and realized what I was doing.
Oh my god.
I probably looked crazy.
I felt crazy.
But mostly I was angry. And sad.
Hongseok had lied to me.
Is this what betrayal feels like?
Like when the main ninja turns out to be evil and tries to kill the others for power..

I had asked him a while ago if he knew who hurt me. And he said he didn't.
How could he lie?

My thoughts where interrupted by ice cold water being poured all over my head.
Seunghee had done it.

Since I got distracted, Kino managed to push me off him, making me fall down to the floor.
- thanks.
Kino said to Seunghee.
- I wasn't helping you.
Seunghee said, and looked at me.

Was she trying to say she did that for me? That's funny.
I got up from the floor, and started walking away.

I had nothing to say to them.
Also I was pretty sure they could all see my bra through my wet t-shirt.
But then I got curious.
- did you know?
I asked Seunghee.
She looked confused for a second, but then her face fell, like she was ashamed.
- I found out the same day you left.
She told me.

That was all I needed to hear.
They had clearly made their choice. they choose to protect Kino.
So I made my choice.

Im never coming back here.

I ran out of the Cube building, and found my brothers car. Luckily I was the one who had the keys.

I got in the car, and screamed.
Life lately had been so confusing. And nothing felt right.
My brother being sick.. Is he dying?
being lied to.. doesn't anyone respect me?
And then the whole rejected kiss situation..
I had never been so humiliated.

I still had to wait for Rena to be done with whatever she was doing here. I decided to just stay in the car.
My tshirt was still wet, and I didn't have anything to change into.
That's just great.

I was about to turn on the radio, when someone nocked on the car door window. It was Wooseok.
- can I sit with you in the car?
He said.
- uhm.
Was all I could say before he interrupted me.
- like in the drivers seat? I wanna pretend I'm driving.
He said, and grinned.

I realized I was laughing. And feeling better.
- get in.
I told him.
He jumped in the car, and looked at me with a smirk.
- what is it?
I asked.
- do you want to borrow my sweater?
He asked me.

Oh god. I had almost forgotten about that.
- yes please.
I said, making him laugh.
- how did you even know I was here?
I asked him.
- well, I came out of the cafeteria to see you.. trying to kill Kino or something. Whatever it was, it was awesome.
He explained.
- no.. it was crazy. I was acting crazy.
I said.
I did regret attacking Kino. But at the same time, I didn't.
- I love crazy.
Wooseok said, making me laugh.

It was nice spending some time with Wooseok. It was like I had never left.
But this time, we talked as friends. We never really got to be friends, considering his past feelings for me.

Maybe I should stay.

• Hongseok's POV•

After Yerin ran away, I yelled at Seunghee.
I wasn't really mad at her, I was mad at myself.
Not because I got caught in a lie.
But because I had lied to Yerin in the first place. Why did I have to protect Kino?
I should have protected Yerin. I should have made sure none of this happened.
It's all my fault.
- you think she'll stay away now?
Kino asked me.
I almost hit him.
- I wish you where the one that left.
I told him.
- that's cold, man.
Kino said.
- why do you hate her so much?
I asked both Kino and Seunghee.
- I'm late for practice.
Seunghee said.
- no you're not.
I said.
- what do you want from me?!
Seunghee yelled, making people in the hallway stop to look at her.
- do you see what Yerin is doing to us?
Kino said.
- what do you mean?
I asked him.
- we had it good. Until she came and took you aw.. I mean, she's just so much drama.
Kino said.
Then he left, looking stressed.

- you want to know why I can't forgive her?
Seunghee said. She had calmed down, and looked sad. I nodded.
- because she never asked for it.

After Seunghee left as well, I was considering going back to the dorm. But I couldn't move.
Because I just realized the situation.
Yerin is hurt. And alone.
She needs me, doesn't she?

I decided to go look for her outside.
But first I went to the locker room to find a sweater she could borrow.
She's probably cold.
She might get sick.

I looked around the park nearby, but she wasn't there.
I had given up, and was walking through the parking lot.
Maybe she went home already.

Suddenly I saw hongseok sitting in a car I didn't recognize. I decided to walk over to him, to tell him to get to practice.
Obviously I didn't expect him to be alone in he car, but I couldn't have imagined it would be her. Yerin.

They where laughing, and pushing each other around.
Yerin was smiling. I hadn't seen her smile in a long time.

They were just friends right? Wooseok wouldn't do that to me again right?
I couldn't stop thinking about them together.
I have to stop it.

I nocked on the window, startling them. Wooseok opened the car door, and asked me what I was doing here.
- the question is, what are you doing here, when you're supposed to practice with Yuto!
I said.
I know I was acting petty, but I wanted him to go away. Away from Yerin.
Because I had something important to say.
- I'll go. Just don't tell Hui I was late.
Wooseok said, and got out of the car.
- I'll see you on Saturday.
Yerin told him.

Saturday? What kind of plans did they have?
Wooseok finally left.
- you should really know when to stay away.
Yerin said, trying to look mad.
- you're too cute.
I whispered without realizing.
- what?
Yerin asked, and it actually looked like she was blushing.
- you're so damn cute. And I miss you so much.
I said.
Well, I almost yelled it.
- don't do that.
Yerin said.
- do what?
I asked.
- you're leading me on.
She said.
- but I mean it.
I said.
Yerin didn't say anything, she just looked away.
- Yerin.. I love you.
I said.

I had to get her back. This could be my last chance.
- you're cruel. And a liar.
Yerin said.

I know. I was so mean to her. And I lied. And I chose my best friend over her.
But I wouldn't do that again.

- But I still love you too.
