You play basketball with the guys every morning before and after school, you enjoy it. Every other girl in the school calls you a tomboy. Your mum never allows you to cut your hair short so you always tied up your long hair. Do Kyungsoo, a boy whom you've been playing basketball with ever since you two went to the same school. He was always in the opposing team because well, you two never really see eye to eye. You've always enjoyed the company of guys because there's less drama and more fun. Kyungsoo just feels different, it just doesn't feel right. One day, you guys were playing basketball again when things went a little different.
Kyungsoo: Yah tomboy! Let's be in the same team!
You: What? Us?
You point between you two as you question.
Kyungsoo: Yes. Us two
You: But... But
Kyungsoo: No buts. You're in my team.
He grabbed your wrist and drags you to his side as the other guys start to complain about how you were one of the key players in their team.
Kyungsoo: Come on. It's no fun playing with the same team all the time.
The game started and turns out, you two actually go pretty well with each other. You help him score and he helps you to score.

After the game, Kyungsoo bought you a drink so as to celebrate the win.
You: Thanks. How about the rest?
Kyungsoo: Whatever. You helped me the most.
You: As rude as it may sound. Why are you so short despite the fact that you play basketball so much?
Kyungsoo: Is that how you talk to a teammate whom you just met? Anyways, maybe the genes just isn't right.
You: Who says you have to be polite?
Kyungsoo: I guess. Now my turn to ask. Why do you like basketball so much? And hang out with guys so much?
You: I like basketball. I just enjoy the company of guys. It's just so much fun.
Kyungsoo: If you're such a tomboy, why not just cut your hair short?
You: Because my mum never allowed it so... You look down onto your bottle as you play with it.
Kyungsoo: I wonder...
You: What?
Kyungsoo: How would you look with your hair down!

Kyungsoo pulled out your hair tie, allowing your long hair to cascade perfectly to frame you face. He ran then ran away.
You: Yah! Do Kyungsoo!! You chased after him as the wind blows against your hair. Kyungsoo hid behind a corner as you ran past him and soon gave up after a couple more steps.
You: Aish. I thought I could trust him. Maybe we don't see eye to eye anyways.
Kyungsoo: _____!

You turned around and your hair followed the motion of your head. <plays dramatic music and may this scene be played in slow motion> It was probably the first time you've ever let your hair down in school and Kyungsoo just has to be the first person to see it.
Kyungsoo: You look... Beautiful

He stared at you with his large round eyes.
You: Yah! Give it back!
You snatched your hair tie from his hand and tied your hair. Or attempted to before he took it away from you again.
Kyungsoo: You're never gonna tie your hair again. You're beautiful like that! And stay that way. Because I think I... Like you.
