Third Person's POV

❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌

"F**k you, Val! I'm not a skater! I have weak knees!" Rae cursed, as she slowly move along the sides.

"Ballet doesn't have anything to do with skating. What are you talking about?" Rae added.

"Whatever it is! I am not flexible! My legs are twisted like this! Isn't it enough?!"

"Ack!" Rae yelped and she fell on her butt, as Jooheon skated past her and shoved her.

"Rae!" Valarie went to help her up.

"Motherf**ker!" Rae cursed at Jooheon that was laughing in glee. Valarie winced as Rae kept shooting beautiful words out of her mouth towards Jooheon. Luckily, Jooheon and Hyungwon rented the rink for them only that evening, if there were kids around, for sure the kids would have learned something so... terrible.

"Where is your boyfriend?" Rae asked.

"He went to the bathroom"

"Ack!" Rae yelped, but this time she managed to hold onto the side.

"Hah! You think you're quick!" She pointed a mocking finger at Jooheon's direction.

"Stupid asshole!" Rae shouted at him. Jooheon pouted slightly, missing his goal and he slowly went to skate towards her.

"Val. Val! Valarie!" Rae's calls got louder and louder. When Valarie turned to look at Rae, Jooheon had already grabbed Rae's arm.

"Aaahhh!! Valarie!!" Rae was screaming and shouting, while she tried to free herself from Jooheon's evil claws! Jooheon was happily swinging her around by wrapping an arm around her waist and the other holding her hand.

"Stop!" Rae yelled at him, as she had to hold onto him no matter what, to not fall and face plant into the ice.

"Jooheon! You jerk!" Rae yelled, as she was holding onto him as tightly as she could. Valarie just smiled, looking at the both of them. Seriously, if they weren't here, the place would be quiet and way too boring.

"Ah!" Valarie gasped, when she felt her shoulder got shoved. She watched as Hyungwon skated past her, a smile on his face.

"Do guys like to shove girls when they skate, or something?" Valarie asked, trying to regain her balance.

"It's so much fun to bully amateurs" Hyungwon laughed, as he gracefully skated, while Valarie was slowly catching up to him.

"Aaahhh!!" Rae's scream reached their ears, as Jooheon and her skated pass them.

"I'm surprise he's not in pain!" Valarie stated, looking at Jooheon who looks calm, while Rae was screaming like it's the end of the world in his ear. Valarie kept on looking down, making sure to balance herself properly. Hyungwon looked at her who was cautious and careful, looking like a kid who was learning how to skate. She slowly smiled, as she went faster and she didn't fall. Hyungwon inevitably smiled at seeing her determination.

"Come on" Hyungwon put out a hand for her and she grabbed it. This time he wrap an arm around her shoulders, while still holding onto her hand, before he guide her slowly.

"Let me goo!!!" Rae screamed again, Hyungwon and Valarie chuckled at that.

"Isn't she tired of screaming?" Hyungwon asked, making Valarie chuckle once again.

~~~~~~~~~~

Jooheon was currently driving and Rae kept on throwing tissue balls at his direction. She took advantage of the situation to take revenge on Jooheon. Valarie and Hyungwon at the backseat was snuggling up to each other. Valarie felt cold and Hyungwon was warming her up in his arms. Hyungwon could smell her rosy scent at their close proximity. Valarie look up to face him and he look down. He cupped her cold cheeks and she smiled up at him. She lean upwards and land a peck on his lips. Rae kept throwing the tissue balls and Jooheon avoided the balls and occasionally, he would pinch her side, making Rae laugh. Valarie kissed Hyungwon one more time, this time he deepened the kiss as well, making her face heat up and her lips warm.

~~~~~~~~~~

"You are a hoe!" Rae hissed at Valarie.

"Had fun?" Rae asked her.

"Well, I'm not the only one" Valarie said, clearly noticing something going on with Rae and Jooheon.

"He knows something about me that I've been trying to keep a secret!" Rae groaned.

"What? About your middle name?" Valarie asked, which Rae slowly nodded.

"Be honoured that I told you. Cause I only tell my middle name to people who I consider friends"

"Rae, Juliette is a cute name. It gives off an elegant touch to yourself"

"Elegant?! Pfft! Bulls**t! I can't even be elegant even though I tried so hard"

"I swear to you, my family wanted to disown me just for being different and reckless" Rae stated, shaking her head.

"But jokes on them, I hate being with uptight people like them. I really thought you were uptight too, but after meeting you, you're not so bad" Rae shrugged at the end.

"I was uptight. Was. After everything went down, I don't see the point in being uptight anymore"

"Good morning, Juliette" Jooheon entered the kitchen and instantly Rae groaned.

"Please, do not call me that. My family calls me that" Rae stated, throwing glares at Jooheon.

"Nah, I like Juliette, better than Raeven" Rae clicked her tongue at that.

"Whatever" She rolled her eyes at that.

"You call me that, I won't answer you. Nuh-uh" Rae shook her head.

"Oh, my Juliette. I'll be your Romeo" Jooheon grabbed her hand and kneel down in front of her, teasing. Valarie snickered at that.

"I've known you less than a month. And I hate you already"

"How can you hate your Romeo?" Jooheon continued to tease, standing up and putting an arm around Rae's shoulders.

"I'm gonna be the one to kill my Romeo and bury him myself, so I don't have to see his face anymore"

"This Juliette is brutal" Jooheon put his hands up in surrender and was about to walk away, when Rae boldly grabbed his arm, reeling him back in.

"I was joking, honey~" Rae decided to tease him back.

"How can I ever shoot you?" Jooheon eyed her warily, as her fingers trailed upwards and cupped his face.

"What are you doing?" Jooheon asked her, looking nervous as she stood up and her face leaned closer to his.

"What does it look like I'm doing?" She asked, making sure her voice sounded sultry. As their lips were about to touch, she pulled away and pinched his cheeks. Valarie and Rae burst out laughing at that, Jooheon looked dumbfounded.

"Come on, honey. With your looks, I'm sure there's no problem finding pretty girls" Rae pat his chest and took back her seat.

"Oh. So, you think I'm good looking?"

"I didn't say that. I just said with your looks. I'm sure pretty girls like... uh... your face" Jooheon pull an offended face.

"Pretty girls like my face? You're a pretty girl. You like my face?"

"I am not pretty, honey. Flattery won't get you anywhere with me"

"Good morning" Hyungwon came into the kitchen, hearing their voices.

"Oh, sorry. Did we wake you up?" Rae asked, he slowly shake his head and walked over towards Valarie. Valarie smiled softly at him, he inevitably smiled as well.

"You're usually hard to wake up" Jooheon said.

"I went to the bathroom" Hyungwon replied.

"I'm just gonna grab a drink. Before I go back to bed" Hyungwon stated, wanting to grab a drink, when Valarie handed him her glass of water. He said a soft 'thank you', before drinking.

"Go sleep in your own house" Jooheon said. Hyungwon ignored him and walked past him.

"Let me crash at your place" Hyungwon said in Korean.

"Aish, hyung! I've got guests coming later on" Jooheon said in Korean as well. This time, Rae and Valarie looks puzzled.

"Okay. I was joking. I'll leave" Hyungwon said.

"Let me go get ready" Hyungwon went to leave the kitchen.

"Say... how much do you rent for this space?" Rae asked.

"Uhm... the original price was fifty million. But, I bought it for thirty million"

"Ouh! That's... so cheap!" Rae sarcastically said, her eyes wandering the place. Valarie thought to herself, that's how she used to be. Whenever she had money, she can spend however way she wants too. But truthfully, she wasn't as rich as Hyungwon, or his friends. They were way richer than her.

"The power of money... is truly corrupted" Rae muttered to herself, but clearly, Valarie could hear her. No doubt about that.
