Ella POV:

Why'd Vanessa bring my player ex-boyfriend into this?

"Sup," he said.

I nodded.

"Isn't she adorable?" Vanessa smiled.

Sometimes I wondered why she was my best friend.

"I agree," he smirked.

"But if you try anything on her, I will kill you.  Got that?" Vanessa smiled innocently.

Oh yeah.  That's why.

"My name's Reece," he said.

"I'm Ella," I said.

Dang, doesn't this guy recognize me?  The girl who dumped him?

"Let's go!" Vanessa said.

I nodded.  So did he.

Great.  Now it's going to be awkward.

Eli POV:

"Who's ready for some stalking?" I walked into the dorm.

"Me! Who are we going to stalk!" Kevin exclaimed.

"Ella," I replied.

Kevin pouted.  "That's not nice." 

"Are you coming?" I asked.

"Yeah." he grabbed his sunglasses and walked out with me.  

~~~~~~~~~~

Ella POV:

So, Vanessa was in the front seat with the cab driver, and she insisted that I share the backseat with Reece.  I put my earphones in and turned up the music really loud, so that I wouldn't hear him talk about his life.  I stared out the window and nodded every few minutes, so that he thought I was listening.  The awkward drive ended and we got out to eat some food.

Vanessa went to the bathroom, leaving poor me with Reece.

"Yah.  Sun." I said.

He shut up.  He knew me now.

"Noona?" he whispered.

"I'm not noona.  We're born on the same day, remember?" I said.

"But you were born before me," he said.

"I haven't seen you since we broke up," I smirked.

"Noona, it's not what you think," he said.

"Sun.  We broke up.  I know that you dated all those girls while we were together," I smiled.

"Noona," he said.

"Tell Vanessa that I had to leave early, and that the cab driver could give her directions," I said.

"Noona." he pulled my arm.

"What is it Reece?" I asked.

"I.....I....." he said.

"You what?" I asked him.

He pulled me into his arms and kissed me.

Cue the Secret Garden OST music because my life just turned into a Korean drama.

Eli POV:

I can't believe it!  

People sell pizza on a stick?

How is that even possible?

"Hyung?  Hyung," Kevin was using his binoculars that Xander got him for Christmas.

"What is it?" I was mesmerized my the pizza on a stick photo.

"Well, I don't know who that guy is, but it looks like they're kissing or something." Kevin looked up at me.

"Pass," I gestured toward the binoculars.

"Oh my," I whispered.

"Hyung.  Is that her boyfriend?  Cuz Dongho's gonna go into depression if he hears about this," Kevin frowned.

"What's so bad about that?" I asked.

"Cuz then he'll keep nagging," Kevin pouted.

"That's what he does now, right?" I asked.

"Yeah, but he's gonna nag even more," Kevin said.

"And what do you mean?  Dongho likes my sister?" my eyes widened.

"Oh hyung! Your eyes look like they're on fire or something!  Don't kill me!" Kevin crouched on the snowy ground with his hands covering his head.

Kevin dragged me home, I guess, because I woke up in my bed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ella POV:

"Sun.  Reece.  Whatever you want me to call you," I waved my hand in front of his face.

"Yeah?" he asked.

"Let go," I said.

He immediately retreated.

"No.  When I say let go, that means hold on tighter," I frowned.

"Okay Noona," he said.

"I told you that you would thank me for this," Vanessa clapped her hands and sat down.

"What took you so long?" I asked.

"Nothing," she shrugged and we continued to eat.

~~~~~~~~~~~

We were walking out, and Vanessa whispered to me.

"I got my cramps today.  That's why I took so long," she whispered.

"Woah.  Too much info girl," I said.

"Don't say that out loud!" Vanessa pouted.

"Haha.  No worries," I laughed.

"You know, Reece is a good guy.  He gave up being a player for you," Vanessa commented.

"You knew?" I asked.

"Yup." she said.

"You brought him here so that we could be a couple?" I asked.

"Pretty much.  I did this because I remember that you would always set me up with guys.  And it would go well.  So I decided to return the favor," she explained.

"Thanks Vanessa.  Besides your weird personality, I can understand why we're best friends." I smiled.

"Yah!" she threw snow at me.

"It's on," I grinned.

We started throwing snow at each other.  But there wasn't that much left considering that the snow was melting.

this is a picture of what i imagine reece/sun to look like

haha, not what you'd expect, eh?
