After class: ROOM 107

"Ugh, a maid cafe, why didn't I think of that..." Hyukjae whines as he buries his face into his pillow.

You are sitting down beside the lying-down Hyukjae in his elevated sleeping area, helping him write down different ideas for his class' festival booth.

"Well, what has your class done for the past years?" you ask him.

"Uhh... We've always been putting together performances to make something like a mini-concert," Hyukjae says as he folds his arms under his chin. "It's sort of a tradition for our class now."

"Yep, that's true," Donghae butts in. He is eating chips while scribbling in a notebook. "Actually, a lot of people look forward to Hyukjae's class concerts. But usually, it's just him and his classmates dancing to K-pop songs."

"The same thing year after year?" 

"Nah, we dance to whichever K-pop songs are famous that year," Hyukjae answers. 

"Babo, that IS the same thing!" Donghae throws a handful of chips at Hyukjae.

"Ya, if you were gonna give me food, you could've told me in advance so my mouth would be open and ready to catch it!" Hyukjae laughs.

"Ahem," you say, determined to stop any distractions from this important session. 

Donghae goes back to reading his notes. "Sorry, Haneulie~ *munch munch*" 

"Anywayyy," you turn to Hyukjae. "I've been thinking, will your classmates really not help you until the day of the festival?" 

Hyukjae nods sadly. D':

"Hm, that might be going a bit too far..."

"The teacher agrees with them..."

"Oh, so no one is going to perform this year." 

"Mhm." TT TT

"Aahh, I don't know if I can take this anymore," he whines and places the pillow over his head. 

You sigh. "It's just a mini-concert. It doesn't even have to be so grand. All you have to do is decorate a room, rent out speakers and equipment and invite other people you know who can perform!" 

Hyukjae almost looks crazy the way he is pulling out his hair frantically. "But I don't know anyone! My classmates are the ones with talented friends. I only have this fish," he says, pointing to Donghae. 

"Hey!" Donghae says, scattering chip crumbs all over his notebooks.  

Ughh Donghae gross... =_=

"Here's the deal, Hyukjae," you say. "I help you look for talented people to invite, and you think about how your booth is going to look like, plus other details that will entice people to watch. Okay?" 

"Okay... But how are you going to do that?" 

"It's a secret," you grin. 

"Alright, I'll just trust you, Haneul," Hyukjae scratches his head. "I'll plan the other stuff needed now." 

You see Hyukjae start writing a list of things that he thinks will make class 3-C's booth better this year. It starts off with "free food". After 10 minutes, he still hasn't written anything else down. You decide to leave him for a bit and focus on your own class' festival booth. 

Late afternoon: SHRINE

"Haneul, please don't push through with the maid cafe," Kyuhyun pleads.

"You said the same thing about the host club," you reply. =_=

"BUT THIS IS WORSE!!!!" he whines, holding his knees. 

"Oh come on, it'll be fun~" you giggle. "Everyone will be so pretty!" 

"Wait a minute," he stops. "You're gonna have to dress up as a girl too." 

"... And so? I'll be 'cross-dressing'." :P

"But what if people find out that you're really a girl?" 

"Huh? How would that happen if they know I'm a boy dressed up as a girl?" o_O

"Because girl's clothes would suit you perfectly! My god, Haneul, you set yourself up for this..." he facepalms himself. 

"Eh?" 

You still don't get it. Heechul would look just as girly as you. Maybe even girlier. 

So what gives? =_=

"You're really trying hard not to go through with this," you smirk. "Look at all the strings you're pulling out." 

"But, Haneul, now I really am serious. I'm thinking about this for your sake." 

"Meh, I'm gonna go ahead now, Kyuhyun," you wave him off. "I thought you'd be able to help me think about our booth but I guess not. I'll go look for other people who are more encouraging." =_=

"Haneul!" 

You walk away from Kyuhyun and return to the dormitory building. 

Hmph. I shouldn't have asked him for help on this. Now my day is ruined. :/ 

Oh, I know! I'll call Joongki~ :3

You look for a spot where no one will hear your phone conversation.

RRRRRIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG!!!

RRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG!!!

"Hello?" a voice answers. The background noise is quite noisy. You hear many people talking and shouting. 

"Joongki oppa! Are you busy?" 

"Song Joongki is shooting right now. Do you want me to pass a message to him?" 

...

This isn't Joongki I'm talking to? o_O 

"U-uh... Could you, um, just tell him to call me back later?" 

"Okay, will do." 

You hear a voice in the background. "Manager-nim, who are you talking to on my phone??" 

"It's your girlfriend," the manager replies. 

"Give that to me," you hear. 

Thump thump thump. 

Girlfriend??

"Hello, cupcake~" Joongki chuckles. 

"Song Joongki, we are still shooting--" someone says.

"Hold up, just a minute, director-nim," he replies. "So what made you think of me today, Haneul?" 

You can almost hear his voice winking. 

"Girlfriend???" you shout into the phone. You realize that your shouting might draw unwanted attention on campus. You lower your voice and hiss at Joongki, "Since when was I your girlfriend??" 

"Oh, you're not?" Joongki snickers.

"YA!"

"Okay, okay," he says, giving in. "I'll change your name on my phone."

"Thank you. Sigh, I can't believe your manager answers your phone when you're not around," you remark. 

"Well, he's like that a lot. But don't worry, I'll keep my phone hidden next time. What's up?"

"You don't seem like you have enough time for me to explain everything on the phone right now though..." 

"What are you talking about? I have all the time in the world!" he exclaims. 

"No, you don't!" a man shouts in Joongki's background. 

"It's okay, I'll just talk to you again later. Call me up when you're free." 

"Alright, cupcake, whatever you say." 

"Bye. AND DON'T FORGET TO CHANGE MY NAME TO JUST PLAIN 'HANEUL'."

"Hahahahahha, sheesh, fine, I'll do it for real." 

You hang up.

What is he, crazy?? He could get kicked off the shoot for behaving that way. Dx 

 ROOM 101

"Haneul, could you please this monkey out of our room and back to his own cage?" Heechul says as you come in. 

Hyukjae is sprawled on the floor of your room. In his hand is a piece of paper with lots of scribbles. You presume it's his ideas for the festival. 

"Haneul, I can't relax. I can't find the will to go on either," Hyukjae mutters. "Tell me please who can we contact for the concert? TT TT" 

You sigh. 

I guess I'll have to get right down to it then.
