“_________.” Jay shook you lightly, “_______.”
You groaned, “What?”
“I’m leaving. My parents already left for work.”
You sat up right away, “What time is it?” you panicked.
“Almost eleven.” he looked at the clock.
“Oh.” you let out a sigh of relief. “Okay.”
“I’ll see you tonight, you’re coming out right?” he asked.
You nodded sleepily, “Yeah I’ll be there.”

He smiled at you before leaving the room. You got up and looked out your window, seeing his car pull out of the driveway.
“.” You grabbed your phone and dialed Min.
“”Good morning~” she sang.
“I need help.” you sighed.
She chuckled, “Okay, go to your closet.”
“Mhm.” you opened the door.
“Grab your black shorts, those white Toms, uhmmm, white tank top and that cute red plaid shirt.”

You giggled, “Ok.”
“Hair…hair...” she pondered, “Side pony tail, keep it low…and I think that’s it.”
“I love you~” you sang.
“I know.” she giggled, “Have fun~ We’ll see you tonight?”
“Yes you will. Thanks again Min.”

--

“Where am I picking you up~?” asked Yongguk.
“Jay’s house.” I answered, tying up my hair.
“He’s not home?”
“Nope. No one is.”
“I’ll be there in ten minutes~”
I smiled, “Okay~”

I grabbed my phone and stuffed it in my pocket, seeing him pull into the driveway. Grabbing my spare key I went out, locking the door behind me. Yongguk’s arms wrapped around my waist before I could turn around. I looked up and met his smile.
“Hi.” I blinked cutely.
“Hi.” he kissed my forehead.

“Where are we going?” I asked as I buckled my seatbelt.
“Look in the back seat.” he started the engine.
I turned and saw a large picnic basket. “A picnic?” I beamed.
He smiled, “Yup. Have you been to the river yet?”
I shook my head, “Nope.”
“Good.” he held my hand, eyes still on the road.

“It’s not a good idea.” said Donggab.
“Why not?” whined Jay.
“Because, _______ is already getting suspicious and the last time you ‘talked’ to Jieun you made out with her.”
He frowned, “It was a moment of weakness!”
“But now she knows that those feelings never left.” said Yukwon.
“She’s not going to stop bothering me.” said Jay.

“And she won’t stop bothering Yongguk either. She’s just playing you guys all over again and so far, at least from what we’ve seen, you’re the only one falling for it.”
Jay sighed, sinking back into the couch, “You don’t know, maybe Yongguk is feeling the same way.”
They all exchanged knowing looks, “We doubt it.”
“What you think he’s more emotionally stable than I am?”

“No, but…he actually fought you last time this happened.” said Junkyung.
“And this time he didn’t want to, so he obviously doesn’t feel the same way he used to.”
“I wonder if this is what the girls are doing.” sighed Taeil.
“No, Jia told me that they’re playing COD.” answered Hanhae.
Jay furrowed his brows, “It’s just…that half hour brought back everything I felt back then, when things made sense.”
“I am about to say the most cliché saying ever.”, Beenzino hopped over the couch, sitting next to him, “There are plenty of fish in the sea.”

Murmurs of agreement filled the room. “That’s some advice.” said Donggab, “Come on, tell me you don’t stare at Min.”
They all shot him looks, “What?! I’ve seen him! That one night her and _______ did that dance-”
Jaehyo raised his hand, “Well to be fair hyung everyone was watching them so-”
“Yah! This is getting ridiculous.” sighed Jay.
“No, what’s ridiculous is that you mentioned a half hour. You made out with her for a half hour?!” Zico raised his eyebrows.
“It should be at the most 15, then the clothes start flyin.” said Minhyuk.
“I agree with that.” P.O., sipped his drink.

Junkyung rolled his eyes, “Back to Jay. Boys, boys!” he snapped his fingers, getting their attention, “This day was meant to help our hyung, remember?”
“Right.” Zico turned fully around to face Jay. “Get. Over. Her.” he said slowly.
“You’ve had…three-four years? She isn’t worth it hyung.”
“We’re just looking out for you.” Beenzino patted his shoulder.
“I’ll tell you what we’re going to do.” said Donggab. “Tonight, you are going to get any and every available girls number.”
“YEAH!” they all cheered.

Jay chuckled, “This was y’alls idea of making me feel better?”
“No, actually we were going to watch reruns of Secret Garden and Donggab was going to teach us how he keeps his skin amazingly smooth.” Beenzino rubbed his face, making him fall off the arm rest of the couch.
“NO!” shouted Donggab, making the room of boys explode with laughter.
“But just incase you were wondering, it’s this moisturizer that exfoliates overnight!”
Rado sleepily walked out of his room, “What are you all doing here?” he rubbed his eyes.

“It’s Make Jay Feel Better Day.” said Taeil innocently.
“How’d you get in my house?” he carefully walked down the steps.
“We made a copy of your key last week when you passed out at my house.” said Junkyung, “We thought you’d be cool with it.”
Rado furrowed his brows and headed to the kitchen, “WHO TOOK MY TWIZZLERS?”
Zico jumped and threw the red bag of candy at Jay, who threw it at Yukwon. He put it under the sofa cushion. “I HAVE NO IDEA!” they all shouted in unison.

“Look there’s a turtle!” Yongguk pointed.
“No it’s not!” I giggled, “That’s a rabbit!”
“Nuh uh! Look turn your head this way.” he put his head right next to mine.
“See?” he looked at me.
“Oh! That’s weird.” I blinked.

He chuckled and sat up, we had been staring at the clouds making out shapes.
I felt him play around with my fingers, “You have small hands.”
He put them flat against each other, “But they’re perfect, see.” Like a puzzle piece, they laced perfectly with his. I smiled shyly and felt my cheeks heat up.
“________~” he cooed. I looked back, noticing he laid back down, our faces just centimeters apart. We both started to lean in, when I felt something jab my leg.

“Ow!” I turned my head, accidentally bumping it against his. We both chuckled.
“I’m sorry.” I frowned, we both sat up seeing a duck pecking around us.
“Moment killer.” I said to it, making it quack at me.
Yongguk chuckled, “Here, he’s probably hungry.” he dug into the picnic basket and brought out a few bread slices. We torn them into pieces and fed them to the animal. As he finished the last few pieces he turned to walk away, leaving us alone again.

The area where we were wasn’t crowded, but wasn’t deserted either. A few people walked around enjoying the day. I leaned on his shoulder, hugging his arm. We both stared at the Han river, in front of us. The water sparkled in the sunlight. “________.” he said softly.
I looked back at him, seeing his eyes looking into mine then down to my lips.
He closed the small space in between us, pressing our lips together. I kissed back immediately, feeling him smile.

He turned his body completely to face me and cupped my face, deepening it.
I had never felt this way about anyone before, unless you count Aiden Trinh in the third grade, but he pushed me off the swings after I told him I liked him-anyways, my first kiss to say the least was amazing. His soft lips worked against mine, not caring if anyone saw us making out. He pulled me onto his lap, his hand caressing my hair letting it fall out of the pony tail.

Then…another moment killer, the cell phone. More specifically, his cell phone. He pulled away and groaned, I pouted and kissed his cheek as he looked at the called I.D. “Answer it.” I shrugged.
“It’s not important.” he clicked ignore and kissed me again, a few seconds in it rang again.
He sighed, “Answer it.” I repeated.

--

“Yes hyung?” he answered. You kissed his neck, making him jump a little. A small giggle escaped your lips.
“I know that you’re on a date with your girlfriend, and I’m very very very very very very very very sorry but we need your help.”
Yongguk sighed, “What is it?”
“We messed up the last three tracks that we recorded and we’re not sure how to fix it.”
You leaned your head on his chest as he rolled his eyes.
“Give me a minute.” he hung up.

“What’s wrong?” you asked.
“My hyungs, messed up our songs.” he frowned. “I have to go fix what they did.”
“Can I come?” you asked, with big innocent eyes.
“Why can’t I say no to you?” he touched your foreheads together.
“But seriously, do you want to be in a room full of loud guys?”
“What do you think I do every weekend at Teddy oppa’s club?” You smiled cheekily.
He chuckled, “Come on then.” he pecked your lips once more before scooping you up to your feet.

--

Yongguk grabbed his keys and unlocked the door. You looked up at the building, it had no sign. “Where are we?” you asked innocently.
He grabbed your hand, “This is where we record.” he smiled and grabbed your hand, leading you into the building.
You walked up a few flights of stairs, feeling the bass of beats.

“You’re doing it wrong!”
“No I’m not! I have to undo what you just did. The opposite, so that’s what I’m doing!”
“I think we should just wait until Jepp gets here~”
“Let’s at least try solving the problem though.”
You heard arguing as Yongguk unlocked another door.
He let out a sigh and took your hand again.

You passed up the small hallway and saw at least 15 guys either sitting down or standing by the sound board. No one had noticed that you had walked in yet.
“Alright, what did you guys do?” Yongguk said.
“It was Maslo’s fault!” they all pointed at him.
He gaped, “Hey, we all made a pact! It was CSP’s fault!”
“I bribed them better.” CSP leaned back in his seat.
You came out from behind Yongguk, taking a peek at what was going on.
“Oh.” they all quieted down, seeing you.
Yongguk smiled at you and pulled you in front of him. “Hyungs…This is my girlfriend _________.”

--

“KILL STREAK!” Shouted CSP, giving you a high five.
“Someone take over I have to take a piss!” Maslo threw his controller at Kuan.
“Can someone cover me?!” Yongguk bit his lip.
“I got you.” said Still PM. “GO GO GO!”
You bomb exploded in front you, “Motherer!”, you shouted.
Yongguk moved next to you, switching spots with CSP, “I got you babe.” he said.
“Aw~” the guys teased.
“Yah!” Yongguk blushed, “Keep playing!”

You giggled and jumped up to kiss his cheek, making them ‘aw’ again. He wore a big smile, continuing to play. Safe to say that you got along with his hyungs. They thought you were adorable and too good for him. As you were continuously shooting your phone rang. You groaned, “I got it!” Maslo came up and answered it, putting it on speaker for you.
“Yoboseyo?” you answered, eyes on the screen.
“________.” Your eyes widened hearing Jay’s voice.
“Oppa. Hi…” Yongguk signaled for them to stay quiet.

“Do you still have my hat?”
“Uh, yes.” You all continued to silently cheer as you were winning in the game.
“In my closet-die die! Uh sorry, uhm no, no uh it’s hung up behind the door.”
You heard him chuckle, “Playing COD still?”
“Yes and I have to go otherwise I’m going to die, I’ll see you later, bye!”
The guys laughed as Maslo ended the call.

--

“I’m sorry, I can’t let you in.”
Jieun huffed, “And why not?”
“No bracelet, no entry.” said the bouncer sternly.
Jieun narrowed her eyes and stormed off.
“Can’t get in?” asked Hyosung.
“They won’t let me.” she whined slamming the car door.
“Something about a stupid bracelet.”

As they spoke Jay and Junkyung passed by their car. Jieun’s face lit up and she ran to him.
“Oppa! Oppa!” she called out.
He turned around, “What do you want Jieun?” he sighed.
She smiled sweetly and ran a finger along his chest, “I wanted to see you rap.”
Junkyung scoffed, “Jieun, I can’t get you in.” answered Jay.
He took her hand away, “Besides, you never cared about my battles.”
She tilted her head, “It was never my place.” she said shyly.
“And it still isn’t.” he answered, turning his back on her.

Jieun’s blood boiled as she returned to the car. Her hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. She ignored Zinger’s words as she spotted you walking with your friends. A few kids from school ran up excitedly, greeting you and walked with you. She saw Yongguk cross paths with you, causing an awkward atmosphere for the students who weren’t in on the secret. She saw the glare he exchanged with you and smirked. In her mind you both hated each other.
