Ariya decides and everyone facepalms.

On secrets and love

The boys looked at her.

She gazed round the table. All of them had hope burning in their eyes and Ariya held back a laugh. Except..Yongguk. He was looking down. Relaxed. Unfazed. Wha-What. And then it dawned on her. Ariya realized that he was so sure she would pick him first. So sure that she would say his name.

She rolled her eyes. "I pick..." she smirked. The boys were fully focused on her. She could tell they were holding their breaths. But Ariya felt uncertain. Who would she pick? At times like this, she needed her jacket. To help her think. But no. She would make the decision by herself this time.

She glanced around the table. Taking a deep breath, she continued.

"Jongup oppa." she answered. There was silence and then chaos. Yongguk stared emptily and Daehyun facepalmed. Himchan dramatically pretended to cry. Youngjae shook his head slowly(even though he was disappointed too.) and Zelo nodded his head. He had expected his hyungs to go first...Although maybe not..Jongup looked at her and smiled.

He clapped his hands slowly. He didn't mind. Jongup never minded anything. But he felt a little sad for Yongguk hyung and Daehyun hyung. Especially since Daehyun hyung was banging his head on the table. Ariya grinned. Looks like she had picked well. She chose Jongup because...Well, Jongup seemed nice.

And his smile was addictive. Although she was intrigued. He never seemed angry. Never seemed anything but happy...And aloof. She liked Jongup. Wished she could be as happy as he was. She stood up slowly. "I'll see you tomorrow oppa. Meet you at the park?" Ariya asked. Jongup nodded and polietly waved.

Ariya was a nice girl. He looked around the table. Everyone seemed to have calmed down. Although they were all staring at him. Himchan wiggled his eyebrows. "So, you're first, Moontos. Look. I propose a game of sorts-" he started, staring evily. Yongguk cut him off.

"No. No more of your..games Himchan. And quit staring like that, you're gonna give Zelo nightmares." he said in a serious tone and stood up. Zelo nodded. Himchan did scare him. Especially when he made those weird faces. "Ah but don't you wanna hear the prize? The winner gets a second date with Ariya." he finished and leaned back proudly.

Yongguk stopped in his tracks and slowly sat back down. "Ariya isn't some...Prize Himchan hyung." Daehyun growled. He was sick of this. First, this whole date thing and he didn't get chosen. And now Himchan was making weird faces again and freaking the hell out of everyone. He needed sleep.

"She isn't. The date is." Himchan continued unfazed. "But the challenge is to make her reveal something about her past." he continued. Yongguk slammed his hands on the table and Zelo cowered. "No. This isn't some game. Ariya is very..Fragile. You can't do this to her." he protested, glaring meaningfully.

Himchan laughed. "Quit glaring. Now you're the one that's going to give Zelo nightmares." he chuckled. Yongguk leaned across the table and grabbed Himchan's collar. He was tired. Of Himchan playing games. And Ariya being so damn mysterious. Why didn't she pick him? Okay.

Maybe he was a bit jealous. But still. Zelo stood up abruptly. "STOP! NO ONE IS GOING TO GIVE ME NIGHTMARES! AND I THINK THE PLAN IS A GOOD IDEA IF WE REALLY WANT TO HELP HER!" he shouted all the way through. Hands clenched and face red, he looked round the table.

The hyungs were staring at him. He nodded to Jongup hyung and left. Youngjae giggled. "Wow. Proud of the...The maknae. Wow. You guys need to get therapy or something always fighting like that. Anyway, good luck Jongup. Now if you would excuse me, I have math homework." he bowed and walked off too.

Daehyun looked at the rest of the boys. He sighed. "What time are you picking up Ariya?" he asked. Trying to act uncaring. When he was actually going to follow them...Not cause he was interested or anything. Just cause. But Himchan shook his head and glared at Jongup. Jongup looked between them.

"I don't know hyung." he answered honestly and smiled. Smiling again, he left as well. Himchan stood up and ran after him. He didn't want to be around Yongguk unless there were witnesses. Yongguk facepalmed. "Meet you at the park tomorrow at 11?" he asked Daehyun.

The younger boy nodded in response. It was a silent agreement that they were going to follow Jongup and Ariya on their date. Just because.

And with that, they got up and left too.

YAY! Comments<3 but okay. So. Yea, Ariya DOES think that other people find her ugly and it's because of this severe inferiority complex she has and also like, they didn't talk to her so how would she know what they think? So it's also kind of a misunderstanding. But like yes, that's why she wears the jacket. Because of the inferiority complex. Hope that clears things up! <3
