Ryujin's POV

I'm currently with two oblivious love birds. We were on the way to our Sleeping quarters, and Taehyun decided to tag along with us. He said that he hasn't been into the sleeping quarters, for quite some time already, so he would like to take a look. Chaeryeong kept on throwing questions, at Taehyun. Since, he knew about my secret, without her knowing. I looked over at them.

"Yah! Tell me~" Chaeryeong said, whining to Taehyun. While, Taehyun just shrugged it off.

"When and how did you know about her secret?" Chaeryeong asked, interrogating Taehyun. While, he just looked at me, asking me for permission whether he can answer her or not. While, I just gave him a little nod with a small smile.

"Okay... Since, you've been asking for the past few days..." He started.

"I knew about it... Ever since the moment you guys entered the infirmary... The time, that I spoke to her privately, I made my guess. Which, ended up with a right guess." He said, while shrugging his shoulders away.

"But, now. You have to answer my question." He said, and looked at her. Which surprised Chaeryeong, with the sudden turn of events.

"Okay?" She said, very uncertain about it.

I was just looking at the two of them. I was busy trying to suppress my laugh, since the both of them are making me laugh, right now.

"What made you to ask me such a thing?" He asked Chaeryeong, while she just looked between me and Taehyun.

She sighed, before answering the question. "Well. For starters you weren't as surprised as the others. Unlike, Yeji eonni I actually knew that she also knew about this matter. Plus, you kind of seem to be kind of suspicious." She said, answering his question, but in the end both I and Taehyun just laughed at her.

Minutes later, she joined in our little laughing party. While, we were walking towards the direction of our sleeping quarters. We're just really noisy, because of all the laughs and jokes that we produced.

We were still busy, laughing and joking around, when Chaeryeong suddenly stopped on her tracks. That made both me and Taehyun look at her; she was just looking at the front, with her eyes wide.

Which made both me and Taehyun look at the source. Just to meet, a very annoyed looking Yeonjun oppa. He quickly fixed his posture, and went over to where we were standing.

He looked super serious, and that made the atmosphere very cold. I looked around, to see if he was with anybody, just to see Yeji eonni at the bridge, that connects the two parts of the Castle. She was just looking at us, very bored.

"Ryujin? Beomgyu asks to meet you." Yeonjun oppa said which quickly caught my attention.

"No. Ryujin's staying with us." Chaeryeong said, protesting with it.

"Yeah. I mean there's literally so many things that Beomgyu hyung has to do. He doesn't have time for this." Taehyun protested as well.

"Well. Protest that to Beomgyu and not me. I'm just following orders." He said, obviously pissed.

'What happened?' I thought.

And that started a spark of arguments. Just, because of this little 'appointment' that Beomgyu suddenly arranged.

Author's POV

It has been minutes, and both parties are still fighting over Ryujin. That, is until Ryujin herself had enough of it.

"Okay! Fine!" Ryujin suddenly shouted.

"I agree with it!" Ryujin said, while pushing the two parties away from each other.

"Good." Yeonjun said, while crossing his arms and glared at the two.

"What?! Ryujin you can't be serious?!" Taehyun said.

"Do I look like I'm joking Taehyun?" Ryujin asked Taehyun, while looking at him straight in the eye.

"Okay. Let's go. We can't waste anymore time here." Yeonjun said, while walking away.

"Wait. I did agree. But," Ryujin started.

"Whatever Beomgyu has to say, I want him to say it to the three of us." Ryujin said.

Yeonjun just sighed and looked over at Yeji. Waiting, for an answer from her. While, Yeji just gave a little nod.
