DARA'S POV

"So...Is Youngbae courting you now?" Bom asked as we sat at the benches near the school garden. Its currently our break time and this is one of our favorite spot to kill time while waiting for our next class.

"No Bom, he just gave me a souvenir, period." I nonchalantly said and continued reading my text book.

"But you said that the keychain is supposed to be for his special someone. Why did he give it to you then?" She stared at me squarely in the face while munching on her favorite food. Yes people, you guessed it right, corn!

"Maybe he changed his mind or something. Don't give meaning to it Bom. It's nothing." I explained as i stared back at her. "And besides, why would he court someone like me? I'm not at par and definitely out of his league." I muttered and concentrated with my book once again.

"What do you mean you're out of his league?"

"Well...i don't know. Maybe Jiyong is right, i can't hang out with him or anyone of his members and friends." I said somberly and raked my hair with my fingers.

"He said that?!?" She barked like a mad dog. She looked like she's ready to attack someone she'll lay her eyes on.

"Bommie calm down will you? Aisht! Its not the exact words he used but its the only reason i can think of. I mean, why else would he want me to stay away from his friends?" I explained as i saw her calmed down and stared back at me. I told her what Jiyong told me when he saw us parked in front of their mansion.

"Did he say anything else aside from that?" She asked raising her brows.

"No. Well, he wasn't able to say something after i completely went hulk in front of him and walked away." I said as i remembered that time. I felt my cheeks burned upon realizing what i did.

"Hmmm...." Bom hummed as she looked at me as if she found out something that i don't even want to know. I shrugged and went back to reading.

"Hey guys!" I looked up and saw Donghae coming our way while holding a bunch of snacks on his hands. "Hungry?"

"Do you hate food that much you just have to buy them all and eat them?" I commented still staring at the food he's holding.

He sat next to me as he handed us some of the food. "No silly. I planned to share them that's why i bought a lot."

"Ohhh.." Bom and i both said and gave each other a knowing look before shifting our gaze back to him.

"How are Chaerin and Minzy doing?" Bom asked as she finished eating her corn.

"They're good why?"

"Nothing, she kind of planned to go out this weekend that's all." Bom said grabbing some of the food from his hand.

Donghae gasped, not believing what he's hearing. "Really? So you guys are talking now?"

"Yup, is that a bad thing Mr. Lee?" Bom raised her brow to intimidate him and it looks like it worked for he suddenly cowered in fear.

"No, just asking! Geez. So...can i just come with you guys? I don't have anything else to do anyway." He said looking at her then to me.
