Third Person POV

"Why would you kiss him?" Haknyeon let's out a dramatic sigh, placing himself beside Heiji. "You were doing so well."

"I know," the girl shakes her head, looking up at him with sorry eyes. "I couldn't help it. We argued and I could barely stay mad at him during it. I'm pathetic."

"Hmph," Haknyeon sasses. "A little bit."

Heiji sighs again, placing her head in her hands before peaking between her fingers at the boy, "forgive me, please."

"It isn't me you need to apologise to," he says calmly, taking her hands away from her face. "It's yourself."

"I thought you were gonna say Hyunjae or Sangyeon there," Heiji says, sighing in relief.

Haknyeon's face lights up a little. "Yeah, them too actually."

"What?" Heiji asks with a surprised tone of voice. "Why?"

"Well, firstly, you had sex with Hyunjae, now he's head over heels in love with you," Haknyeon says casually, Heiji's face lighting up with even more shock. "I didn't tell you that!"

"He is?"

"Mhm," he hums. "Well he never exactly told me, or anyone, it's just a bit obvious."

"That's easy to say," Heiji points, standing up to put her jacket on. "You don't know for sure."

"Well whatever it is, he is insanely attracted to you," Haknyeon says in one breath. "And two, you came home from your date with that guy - just to kiss Sunwoo."

"I guess," Heiji shrugs as the two begin to leave the house and head towards the cafe. "I never promised Sangyeon or Hyunjae anything."

"If you asked a guy out and things went good - wouldn't you expect things to be going in a good direction?"

Heiji turned to face him, he did have a point - she just, again, wasn't ready to hear it. "I don't think I'd ever ask a guy out. Besides the point, it was one date - nothing is guaranteed after a first date. That's the part where things should be established."

Haknyeon places a hand on the girls shoulders, taking a deep breath in before talking.

"Heiji, I mean this in the least offensive way possible. But you dated Seoho for a couple of months and things were not established," the girls face drops slightly, the guilty feeling came back although she knew it shouldn't have. "He believed it was going somewhere and then Sunwoo happened."

"Sunwoo was always happening," Heiji mutters. "I promise, once I get my head straight - the boys will be the first to know."

Haknyeon smiles, before linking his arm with hers and heading towards the cafe.

"Hey," she says softly, giving everyone a small cuddle from behind them before sitting down. "Why the change of scenery today?"

"Kevin is working until 6 and then he'll come and join us," Lia says, smiling at the girl as she sat beside her. Conveniently, she sat straight across from Hyunjae, who barely looked at her. "We figured it would be okay, you know, since he left."
