ICE

Four

It had been a week since the cafeteria incident happened. But it was still a "hot issue" for everyone to discuss about.

Everyone whispered to each other when they saw you. And Felix had been on bad terms with you as expected. He used to glare at you with his soul piercing cold stare.

While you, Mina and Somi had grown on each other. You three had similar tastes and interests making you three turn into BFFs.

As always whole day in class was really boring. But Mina and Somi made your school life better.

After lunch there were still two classes left. For the next class, everybody sat down feeling tired because of the never ending classes and teachers' boring lectures.

That was when suddenly the homeroom teacher entered the class and said, "I know all of you are sick and tired of classes so..."

"So...?" Everyone said in unison.

"So...we have decided to announce a tour for our upcoming seniors." The teacher said.

"Our upcoming seniors? Who?" Han asked innocently.

"Us, you fool." Changbin said nonchalantly.

The whole class tried to hold back their laughter.

The teacher explained everyone that there would be 4 teams each with 6 members who would stick together for the whole trip.

Everyone picked a random paper from the box. And you got 4.

After everyone picked a number each, the teacher said the team members to gather together according to the numbers they got.

"Everyone with the number 4 come to me!!" Mina shouted.

"You got number 4 too?" Somi shrieked.

"Me too!" You said.

"I'm hundred percent sure that it is going to be fun now!!" Somi said and pulled for a group hug.

The moment of happiness did not last long as a dark-toned "Me too" was heard near the three of you.

It was none other than Felix. He was not having it. He did not bear having you infront of his eyes. How could he even bear being in the same group with you? Hence he coldly glared at you.

"We got number 4 as well." Changbin and Han said.

"WHAT?! No way I want to change!" Mina said being irritated.

"I want to change as well." Changbin said.

"ME TOO!!" Somi and Han said at the same time.

The teacher tried not to loose his calm and said, "The Principal said no changing of the teams."

"But the school's director says we can." Han said.

The whole class hooted and cheered for Han.

"School's director also said no, we cannot." The teacher said. The whole class fell silent.

"Did he? Oh okay." Han said quickly accepting the answer.

"Did your dad really say that? Can't we really change teams? What happened to your dad?" Changbin whispered to Han.

"My dad and I have not been in good terms since few days back. He probably told every staff to disagree with whatever I ask or say, since I disagreed with him about something." Han whispered back really fastly to Changbin.

"So we really can't change the teams?" Somi asked the teacher for confirmation.

"Yes you heard that right, Ms. Somi." The teacher said.

"Whyyyy?? What did I do in my past life to be cursed with these three idiots??? Why these three out of all the people out here?" Mina said with bitterness.

"What? Cursed?!" Han said.

"What do you mean by curse?  It's a blessing you fools...you get to be together with Han, Changbin and Felix. You must have been blessed for I don't know...probably saving the world in your past life?" suddenly one of their fangirl interrupted you guys.

"Yeah, blessed." Changbin repeated as he nodded his head in agreement. Mina just rolled her eyes at them.

"When elders are talking, small chicks should not speak in between." You said to that girl.

The whole class hooted for you while she rolled her eyes.

"So the tour shall be after two days, for three days. Trekking will be included in the trip so please bring appropriate clothes. These teams shall work together for the three days collaboratively and must look after each other. The remaining two classes will be the classes where you discuss amongst the teams that have been divided. From now the free period starts. I shall get going." The teacher dismisses the class.

"Since the teacher is gone. I shall also get going." Felix says and intentionally bumps with your shoulder. Without apologising he goes out of the class to somewhere not even god knows.

"Hey, watch it!" You say glaring at his disappearing figure.

"Then... bye." With this Han and Changbin followed Felix.

"I have one thing that I am really curious about." You said to Mina and Somi.

"What is it?" Somi said.

"Are all nine of them the same grade as us?" You asked.

"Nope. Chan, Woojin and Minho are our seniors. Hyunjin is in class 2 'B'. But Seungmin and Jeongin are our juniors." Somi explained.

"Ohh..." You exclaimed.

The three of you had sour expressions on your faces due to the group division for the trip. So you tried to lift your moods up.

"Let's think about the brighter part of the tour, which is us being together." You said.

"Yupp!!" Mina entangled her hand with yours and Somi making you three to smile.

'At least I have these supportive souls beside me.' You thought smiling to yourself.

(Where Felix, Han and Changbin went to)

"Oi Felix!" Chan said with a bright smile on his face.

"We heard you guys are going to tour or something." Woojin said.

"Yupp.." Han said with an unpleased expression.

"Then what is wrong with your faces?" Minho asked furrowing his eyebrows.

"Nothing. Something really annoying happened but nothing to worry about." Changbin said shrugging the matter off. They all just nodded.

"Btw, where are the others?" Felix asked.

"Most probably sleeping and drooling somewhere inside the school premises." Minho said.

After exiting the class while walking through the corridor, the teacher thought to himself,

'The combination of three carefree boys and three careful girls... Team four is going to be really interesting.'
