It's Our Little Secret | JOHNYONG | NCT

7. Drama-rama

Taeyong approached a gaping Yuta and Taeil with nothing but amusement written all over his face.

They stayed there, just like that, with comical jawdrops and wide circle eyes.

"I reckon you like the new look."

Taeil gulped and Yuta just stared harder.

Johnny followed Taeyong to his locker, placing a familiar hand on his shoulder, which Taeil and Yuta followed every movement of. "I'll see you later at the library?"

Taeyong peeked at Johnny, a bit taken aback by the sudden proximity the two had. "Uh-yeah. Okay. Sure."

Johnny smiled at him like he was freakin' James Dean and it made Taeyong feel weird.

"See you later, alligator." He ruffled Taeyong's newly dyed hair fondly before making his way to his next class. Taeyong, and even Taeil and Yuta, couldn't help but just stare at his retreating figure.

But it was Yuta who quickly snapped out of it, whipping his head to Taeyong. "Okay, spill."

Taeyong, after watching Johnny's back make a right turn to the next hallway all dreamily, blinked a few times at Yuta. "What?"

Yuta gave him a 'really?' look that just made Taeyong sigh again. "How many times am I going to have to tell you that there is nothing going on between me and Johnny."

"Oh, there definitely isn't." Said a voice at the back. Taeyong knew the voice all too well.

That shrilly, annoying, whiny-

"Taeyong would be all too delusional to even think that there would be anything going on with him and Johnny." and just as Taeyong turns around, he is greeted by none other than Ten.

"What are you doing here?" Taeyong hears the venomous tone Taeil used, he completely forgot the thing that happened to them freshmen year.

"I believe I wasn't talking to you." Ten snapped back at Taeil. 

"Hey!" Yuta stepped forward. "You don't get to talk to my friends like that."

Ten simply smiled at them wickedly. "But am I not your friend, too?"

This took Yuta and Taeil by surprise, hurt completely evident on their faces. They were stunned while Ten remained smug. That rhymed, but Taeyong didn't care! He wasn't going to let this little hoodlum (really, Taeyong?) get away with hurting his friends.
