I swear if I get to see Jaemin again, I'll break his fucking face.

I was in the cafeteria alone but suddenly Areum approached me and then the whole gang sat at my table. "What is this?" I was not amused.

"I told them to sit back." Areum at each of them.

"C'mon Yeona!" Donghyuck whined as he pouted. "As if some us weren't your friends back then!"

At this point, I didn't care anymore. Maybe, I was just too preoccupied with myself. Jaemin had sat with us like he wasn't bothered. "I hope you don't mind, Yeona." He coughed softly.

"What can I do?" I said bitterly and he returned me his sweetest smile. I did not want that response but whatever. I didn't want to show that it did sting me so I looked away.

"I never get to say hi properly." Jeno chuckled as he scooted to his girlfriend. "How are you Yeona?"

"Pretty much fine as usual." I replied to him since he one of the only sane person between Jaemin and Donghyuck. The gang easily warmed up to me and I was kind of happy. It was a first for me to laugh with other people around. It felt so good after years.

"We should party." Donghyuck suggested. "Are you an idiot?" Shina hits him with a book.

"My house is fine." Chenle offered which everybody gasped except for Taehee, Renjun, Jeno and me. He is a year younger than me but he seemed more mature looking than I am. "What are we going to do?" I asked as I sliced up my cake.

"We haven't got to party as a gang. A lot did happened before you got here. I just wanted us to bond before we get busy for graduation purposes." Donghyuck seemed to value friendships—very Haechan to say at least. "Not bad. When is that?" I asked which made him chuckle.

"You don't mind sleepovers?" Donghyuck asked.

"What are you? a girl-" Renjun was about to finish his sentence but Taehee pinched his arm, making him wince in pain. "It's a good idea, Haechan." Taehee was delighted of the idea but kept a cold glare at Renjun.

"I need to ask my aunt first. I'm new in the city and I'm still weary about the idea." To be honest, I don't want to risk the trust that Taehyun's mom gave to me. I'll see what I can do this time. "So it's settled?" Donghyuck asked everyone.

"Yeah!" We all replied in unison.

I went over to the lockers and swapped my books. The suddenly, someone was banged on the lockers which startled me. I quickly took a glance behind the locker door. I thought he was getting bullied but it turns out to be just playing around with his friends. He was the tallest of them all, almost that freshman Jisung's height, jet black hair and plump lips.

"Yeona?"

I turned around and found Jaemin. I knitted my eyebrows in confusion. "What do you want?" I asked.

"Can we.." He started off. "Can we start again?"

"Are you joking?" I did not want to laugh.

"I mean as friends? I swear I won't make moves on you!" This time, it sounded sincere. I just gave him a nod which made the guy smile genuinely. It gave me another sting, his smile was something I treasure the most. "Okay, gotta go!" Jaemin waved good bye before sprinting away. I opened my locked door again and without noticing, it sounded like someone was smacked on the face.

"Oh my fuck—I'm sorry!" I closed the locker door. He was covering his face with his hands. His friends laughed in the background but one looked concerned. "You shouldn't mindlessly..." He put his hands away and glared at first. "..walk that pretty face of yours." His expression changed quickly as soon he got a good look at me.

"Excuse me?" Should I be offended or not by his statement?

"Look, I'm really sorry. I didn't noticed my surroundings." I apologized first before he could say something but of course that's not going to happen. "Just.. be aware of your surroundings. You never know who would you hit first." He managed to say something after all.

"I'm Hyunjin by the way." As he introduced himself, one of his friends chuckled softly.

"Yeona." I replied back as I closed my locker.

"These are my friends, Seungmin, Felix and Jisung." He introduced the other 3 guys.

"Another Jisung?" I joked which made them confused but Hyunjin and Seungmin knew what I meant. "Call him Han if you get confused with the other one."

"Oh you mean Park Jisung!" Felix finally got the idea while Han himself was not getting the memo. "The kid that I was telling you, Han. That giant kid in the Dreamies." Felix explained to his friend and he understood right away.

"You're friends with them? That's fast." Han was impressed.

"Well, it happened. I don't know how it did but yeah." I'm starting to think these guys are just fine. I ended up walking with them to class because of their magnetic talkativeness—that would be Han and Hyunjin at the same time.

"I didn't know we had same classes—I mean most classes!" Hyunjin smiled as we got in History. I found Jeno with other guys. He didn't failed to wave at me. I waved back before sitting with Hyunjin at the back.

"You seem pretty close to them. Jeno doesn't really wave to anyone unless its his friends." He said.

"We went to the same middle school and he was my friend back then." I explained as I opened my notebook for notes. He nodded in shock as he grabbed his stuff.

"You're pretty talkative for a girl like you." He mumbles as he started to do note taking.
