Chaeyoung

"I wanna sleep more.."

I told Lisa while we're on our way to our classroom. Jisoo woke us up so early so here we are now, going to our classroom earlier than yesterday.

"You can sleep later during Miss Lee's class. Just don't get caught, though." She laughed. When we got outside our classroom, Lisa was the first one to go inside. I was about to go inside when someone suddenly spoke behind me, making me stop.

"Hey."

I turned around and my brows furrowed when I saw Jongin.

"Uh.. Hey?"

He chuckled. "Hi. I'm Kim Jongin."

I'm feeling a little confused now on why he's here and why he approached me. I looked around. Thank goodness it's still early and there aren't a lot of students around.

"I'm–"

"You're Chaeyoung. Park Chaeyoung." He smiled. My lips parted in surprise.

"How did you know my name?"

"I have my ways." He licked his lip and smirked. I just blinked, not knowing what to say.

"Chaeyou- Oh." Lisa stopped and stared at Jongin in disbelief. She then looked at me with a smirk while raising her eyebrow.

"Oh, is she your friend?" Jongin asked.

I nodded a bit. "She's Lisa."

Lisa smiled at him. "Hello, Jongin-ssi." She glanced at me. "I'll just wait for you inside." She discreetly winked at me before going inside. I shook my head a bit and looked at Jongin.

"I'll go inside." I smiled a bit at him.

"Wait." He said.

"Can I have lunch with you later?" He asked that made me feel surprised. Why did he suddenly approach me today? And why is he asking me something like that?

"Uh.. You're already in–"

"College?" He huffed. "It's not like college students aren't allowed to eat at a highschool's canteen. Right?" He said meaningfully. Was he at the canteen yesterday too?

"Uhm.. sure." I said in a hesitant way.

He smiled. "That's great. I'll see you later." He said before turning his back on me and walking away. I sighed and went inside the room. While I'm walking towards my table, I can see Lisa already looking at me in a teasing way. I rolled my eyes and sat on my chair.

"At first, it's Kris. Now, it's Jongin." She laughed. "What did he say?"

"He's going to have lunch with us later." I said without looking at her. A small gasp escaped her lips. From the corner of my eyes, I can see her covering her mouth with her hand.

"Oh my god. A date."

I glared at her. "It's not."
