Areum looked at us with a falling smile as we walked closer towards her. I understood her face too fast, okay, she clearly liked him. Oh fuck.

I pushed Sunghoon's arm off me, but as I did that he just put it back around me, and once more. Until I gave up and accepted fate.

"Park Sunghoon, smile!" A man with a camera yelled as Sunghoon posed, unfortunately with me. I gave a smile as he posed, the camera shuttering as he took multiple pictures.

As if things couldn't get more awkward, Heejin and her gang came out, staring directly at me and Sunghoon.

"Hey. Get your arm off me." I whispered to Sunghoon as he rolled his eyes, taking it off from around me finally.

I mean, I wasn't really complaining.

Heejin spoke something to her friends, before approaching up to us alone. I was actually wondering where Jiwoo was, turns out, it didn't take much to find her. I saw her clearly having a good time with one of Sunghoon's teammates, smiling and giggling at him.

I found it pretty funny and cute and couldn't even help but smile because of it. But, I was snapped out of that by Heejin.

"So Sunghoon.. are you coming? You know, to the team's celebration. I've heard it's at a reeaaallly nice seafood place." Heejin started the conversation as Sunghoon looked at me.

Oh no, don't look at me like that.

"You going?" He asked me first, I looked at Heejin's priceless expression. Okay so, it's either I go and Heejin will kill me, or I don't go which causes Sunghoon to not go, and she'll kill me too.

Basically, I have no way out of this.

I checked my phone, hoping for a notification that said something the lines of 'I have to go home', chuckling nervously.

Just my luck, no notifications which stated I had to go home yet. I had to think insanely quick, and at this point I just spun a wheel in my head.

"Uh, I actually.. can't." I said, slightly hesitating. Heejin swallowed hard, glaring at me like none before. Oh god, I should probably hire bodyguards at this rate.

"Forreal?" Sunghoon looked at me as if he could read my entire face. I nodded awkwardly as he gave a smile.

"Oh yeah, forgot we had something to do." He added, I clenched my jaw, veerry slowly turning my head to look at Sunghoon who had the cheekiest grin on his face. My glare read, 'I will literally kill you'.

"What?" Heejin spoke, her singular word was rather a shriek mixed with an exclamation.

"Shiit, we're gonna be late." Sunghoon continued with his little act, checking his phone and grabbing my wrist. I winced as he dragged me out of there, "Fuck, my bad." He held my wrist gently as we walked over to where his car was parked.

He said his goodbyes to his teammates, friends and Areum before basically forcing me to get into his car.

As we both sat in, Heechul driving off, I stared at Sunghoon in speechlessness and shock combined together.

"What?" He looked at me like I was an idiot.

"What the hell do you mean what?! Do you know what you just did to me?!" I exclaimed as I saw Heechul occasionally glancing at us through the rear view mirror.

"Make your heart flutter? What?" He was playing dumb, obviously told by that mischievous grin pierced on his face.

"You just placed a bounty on my head. If I don't turn up to school sometime this week, Heejin has definitely buried me alive." I crossed my arms, staring straightforward at the seat infront of me. Heechul let out another small laugh.

"Heechul did you just laugh?" I spoke, Sunghoon letting out a laugh now.

"No ma'am, it was the rain." He this time said, and I looked out of the window, to my surprise, it was actually raining.

"Ahhh, I'm so dead, ah, I need to say my goodbyes, ahhhhh, I'm so dead." I repeated to myself rubbing my face.

"No way you're afraid of Heejin." He scoffed, looking at me. I once more, turned my head slowly to look at him, glaring at him dead in the eyes.

And at first, I lost what I was going to say, his eyes sparkled and I really just then - realised how actually beautiful this man was.

"Yes. Yes I am." I responded.
