"So are we teaming up like last time?"

"As long as I'm with my Minny, then yes"

"Taemin isn't yours- AH!" Jiyong yelled in pain as he again was the victim to Hyori's slap.

"I'll aim for the face next time" you rolled your eyes at their usual daily bickering before taking your notes out for the class.

"What about you, Y/N? Not joining us on this one either?" Taemin asked from beside you.

"Yeah, the teacher said that we can't have two healers on one team so I'm joining another group" you explained with a sullen look.

You knew that what the teacher had said wasn't wrong but you felt more comfortable joining a group with your friends.

"Still... are you going to the same team as last time?" The healer tried to look around the room for the team of scary people that kept to themselves and that whom you found very difficult working with.

"I hope not... like, they're nice people and all but they just don't talk... like ever" suddenly, Sehun entered the class room which made everyone turn to see who had come in and they all smiled at the younger before saying their greetings.

After joining the class over a year ago, Sehun quickly became friends with everyone. His personality was very likeable and he made sure that others were put before him which made all the girls swoon.

"Over here!" Jiyong yelled at the raven haired male who finally noticed where his group of friends were before walking towards and sitting on the other side of Taemin.

"Hey guys, team submission day?"

"Yeah, we're just doing the same as last time" Hyori added after applying another layer of red lipstick.

"Does that mean Y/N isn't joining us again?" He asked while looking disappointed.

"Yeah, I couldn't let Taemin leave the group or else I would get killed by a certain short haired woman..." you, Sehun and Taemin all looked at the mentioned girl who quickly noticed the three of you staring before raising a brow in response.

"Err, may I help you?" Shortly after, the three of you returned your gazes to where they were before and continued the conversation.

"You're right... so who are you joining?"

"I have no clue..." you answered Sehun before looking around the room to see if there were groups that had a small number of members.

After skimming the crowd of students, you noticed a boy sitting on his own near the front of the class. His hair was blonde and looked nicely cut while his face looked cute. His expression, however, did not match his cute demeanor as he glared at the table in front of him.

He reminded you of a boy in one of the orphanages that your mother worked at and that he would have the similar expression and would also sit on his own. Allowing history to repeat itself, you decided to also go over and talk to him.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to ask if that guy is in a group and if not we can start one" you explained while picking up your notebook and bag before making your way over.

The boy jumped slightly when he heard the chair beside him skid back and seeing someone sit beside him.

"Hey, I'm Y/N. You joined last month, right?" The boy looked shocked at the sudden introduction but returned back to reality when he realised that you asked a question.

"Err, yeah..."

"Cool, I was wondering if you were in a group for the project?" The boy shook his head no, only being able to join a month ago and missing the other group project.

"Great! Want to be in group with me?" There was one question that was running through his mind right now, was this real?

"M-my power isn't that great in battle though..." he looked away, returning to his normal stature and excluding himself away.

"That's funny, that's what I thought last year" his ears perked up at your comment, making the blonde male turn around and face back at you.

"What?"

"I mostly support from the back so I was useless at defending myself. But my friend helped me get lessons in hand to hand combat and I'm not dragging my team down anymore" you explained while gesturing to your group of friends near the back.

"Plus I'm sure your power is great! You just need to see that too and then it will be even greater" you tried to open him a bit more, finding it natural to talking to strangers and becoming friends with them.

"... you think so?"

"I know so. So how about joining in a group with me?" The other averted his eyes momentarily before looking back at yours.

"...sure, I guess"

"Nice! Oh, I didn't catch your name?"

"Oh, it's Jay"

"It's nice to meet you, Jay"

"Likewise, Y/N"
