____ POV

I opened my eyes when I felt that the car stopped; I felt something heavy on my head; I opened my eyes slowly; glancing at my side without moving my head; I saw Lay sleeping soundlessly while sliding his body down so I can lay my head comfortably on his shoulder; I looked at him and without noticing a smile formed on my lips

"Guys wake up we're here" manager Oppa said exiting the car; lightly I patted Lay's arm

 "Sir, Sir … we're here" I said and he slowly opened his eyes; he looked up meeting my cold eyes

"Oh …" he said getting up and started fixing up his hair; I woke Sehun up and we all exited the van heading to where we're going to stay; I was walking lazily holding my bag when I tripped by my own leg;  I felt arms around my waist

"Be careful!" I looked up again meeting Lay's caring eyes; I blinked slowly gazing at his eyes

‘I can't take it; I can't look at him; I'm afraid he will discover how I feel about him! I can't! I really can't! I don't want him to know that I love him!’  I thought still looking at his eyes

 "Give me this" Luhan Oppa said taking my bag from me and holding my hand bringing me by his side

 

Lay POV

She was going to fall but I managed to catch her just in time; she looked up meeting my eyes; blinking slowly and gazing at me coldly with emotionless expression

"Why her eyes are so cold? This is not the look I used to see in her eyes" I was busily thinking when Luhan snatched the bag from her; holding her hand bringing her to his side and he continued walking; she didn't even look back at me … and that … hurts; I took my bag again from the ground walking behind them; I couldn't take my eyes off her as we arrived to where we’re staying

"We're here” manager hyung said

"LET’S GO SWIM" Baekhyun said excited and Chanyeol agreed excited as well

"Me too, me too " Sehun said excitedly

"Okay! Let's change and go swim" Kris said and we all went to the room and ___ went to the bathroom to change

 

____ POV

I went to the bathroom to change into my swimming suit; but I didn't like the idea of wearing bikini while I'm with the guys; They sure will look at me like erts; so I took out a simple short with a t-shirt

 

Kris POV

"Hyung … You think Noona will wear bikini?" Tao said imagining things with his lost innocent eyes

"Stop being ert" I said hitting his head playfully and everyone laughed

"What if she really wear ….. it?" Sehun said and silence filled the place

"Then let her be!" Lay said caring-less; I think he was actually ‘acting’ that he careless about her

"Oppaaaa~~~~ let's go!" She suddenly shouted from outside the door; silence filled the place again and we all looked at each other with wide eyes

“You’re DONE already?" Luhan asked looking at us wide eyes

"Yeah~~ why are you guys taking so long!" She said impatiently; I chuckled at her cute whinning

"Looks like she's really wearing a bikini!" Baekhyun whispered in a really low tone and the guys nodded with wide eyes

Lay POV

‘Is she really? Wearing?!! No! I'll not let her go to the pool with it! There will be a lot of guys; everyone stares at her while she’s covered including EXO what if she actually ….. no no! I’ll not allow this to happen’ I thought extremely jealous about the fact that the guys were gossiping about her wearing a bikini

 I finished quickly and opened the door before the guys and looked at where she was; she was leaning beside the door; Wearing a mini, super tight shorts along with a light t-shirt; I admit I felt hot; I guess I was sweating already!

 "This is way too hot!" I thought looking at her from head to toe

___ POV

The door opened suddenly revealing Lay; he looked at me with wide eyes; he then looked at me from head to toe; I was leaning against the wall so I straightened myself and cleared my throat

‘What's wrong with him?’ I thought looking at him weirdly

"He's … blushing??!!!" I looked at myself then back to his stares when I saw the guys coming out from the room

" Wooohooooo~~~~~~~ " I heard Sehun clapping while nodding his head while looking at me

"That was close to bikini!" Tao said innocently sounding disappointed and I blushed

"This is so …. Cute " Chanyeol commented and Baekhyun nodded while hugging chanyeol’s waist and smiling to me; I felt really shy; This my first time wearing this kind of clothes in front of them

"You look beautiful as usual" Luhan said smiling charmingly to me!

"Thanks …" I said laughing awkwardly trying to pull the tight short down shyly; I looked at Kris who was approaching me; He winked to me

"H O T!" he whispered and I blushed like mad now; and hit his arm playfully telling him to stop it; I saw Lay looking at me kinda … pissed?

"This is way too short!" he said suddenly; and I looked at him surprised

"No! She looks pretty!" Xiumin said as he put his arm around my shoulder and smiling to me

"Let’s go ___-ah~!" he said cutely and dragged me out of the place excitedly

 

Kris POV

We couldn't take our eyes off her the whole way to the pool; she really looks so cute; She is really beautiful

 ‘Hell! Why so hot?’ I thought fanning myself

We arrived at the pool area; I saw some guys staring at ___ while smiling and winking to each other; I was really jealous that I wanted to just hide her!

"Ahhh~ Oppa! It's cold! " I heard ___’s voice; she was touching the water with her toes; I smile; I saw Baekhyun trying to touch the water by his hand when Chanyeol pushed him in

" waaaaaahhhh~ " Baekhyun screamed and landed in the water; I laughed at their childish actions; and sat at the chairs by the pool with Lay and Luhan looking at  the guys trying to push each others in the water; when ____ ran and pushed some in the water and some managed to balance themselves before landing in the water; she was laughing so hard while holding on her stomache and bending down; I Laughed along with Lay and Luhan

Lay POV

I saw her jumping happily while clapping her hands and laughing hard; I was laughing along when they clumsily landed in the water and while I was busily laughing while observing her moves;

____ POV

I was laughing loudly and jumping happily that I pushed them in the pool successfully; the rest of the guys got into the water and were playing together giving me less attention now; I was about to go to where Kris Oppa was when a bunch of handsome guys with y abs approached me;

“Hey pretty …” one of them said getting closer; I stood there and looked at them with a straight face

“Wanna play a little bit with Oppa?” one of them said and smirked; I got a little bit scared as I stepped back and looked at the busy guys who were playing in the pool

“Why are you scared?” the guy said and held me wrist stopping me from backing up

“What the hell do you think you are doing!”

 

Lay POV

I held my cell phone wanting to take a photo of her as I noticed how Luhan and Kris were laying down with their eyes shut; so I wanted to take the chance but I noticed a bunch of guys who were surrounding her; I looked carefully and saw her frightened face and one of the guys held her wrist

“What the hell!!” I said and ran to where she was

“What the hell you think you are doing!!” I said as I shoved his hand off her wrist and twist it a little bit and held ____’s hand bringing her behind my back

“Wow wow bro chill we were just trying to be friendly here!” one of them said with a smirk as he was holding both of his hands up; they were really irritating me

“LAY! What’s wrong?” I heard kris as he came next to me and parted me from the guy not to cause trouble; all EXO gathered around as they noticed what was happening

“Were they bothering you ? Huh?!!” Chanyeol said to ____ ready to throw a fist

“Woho guys chill; sorry if we bothered your chick  ... we were just …” he said and I was ready to hunt him down now but was held back by Suho and ___’s both hands around my wrist; when suddenly Kris pushed him on his chest and he stepped back from the push; he looked at his chest and back to Kris

“Yah .. “ he said with a smirk and approached him ready to fight; Kris didn’t move an inch and came closer to him and glared at him

“Dare and come next to her and you’ll be dead.” Kris hissed threatening with a deadly glare as he was clenching his fist hard now; suddenly ____ let go of my hand and approached Kris

“Oppa, let’s go” She said and taking him away before they fight; she looked at me for help and I looked away irritated but told Kris to just wrap it up not to ruin out day; Kris then put his arm around her shoulder and told her to play along with the guys and not to worry since we all will be carefully watching her;

“You guys should have kept close eyes on her!” Kris said glaring at the others who were in the pool and they said sorry to her still looking angry at the guys who left the pool already;

The mood was back as the guys were playing and pranking each others while she was just standing there laughing at them; I stood up again from my resting chair and walked to where she was …

"Not planning to swim?" I asked her and she shook her head while smiling

"I don't know how to swim!" she said embarrassed; I smiled at her softly

"Come …  I'll hold you " I said and she looked at me hesitantly and nodded; I went down slowly in the pool and looked up at her spreading my arms to hold her

"Come … " I said and she sat down slowly putting her legs into the water;  I held her tiny waist gently bringing her into the water

 ‘Hoooo!!!  It's really hot here!’ I thought while holding her as she is holding me tight afraid I'll let her go

"Ah! Cold! Cold! Cold!" She said not letting go of my arms; I admit! I was happy she doesn’t know how to swim; I loved how she was holding tight into my arms not letting go;

Then Kris and Luhan joined us and we all were playing in the pool and ____ would go from arm to arm among EXO excitedly! Kris was the first to hold her so she went to him while playing with Sehun

"Let's play! The one goes there first is the winner! "Chen said and the guys agreed

___ POV

I was secretly dying of happiness how they were defending me and how they showed jealously specially Lay who was about to explode when the guys were around me; holding my wrist tight not letting go of me; and Kris who didn’t care about having a scandal and the guys who made me feel special and safe that no one can ever touch me as long as they are around me

The mood was thankfully back to normal as the guys left the whole place; Lay came and helped me get into the water; well to be honest I hesitated a bit but I don’t know why I just wanted to be with him; so I just forgot everything happened and wanted to enjoy the moment 

"I'll count for you!" I said excitedly when they said they wanted to race and Kris Oppa led me to sit out of the pool legs still in the water; I saw the guys ready then I shouted

" 1 … 2 … Yah! Sehun! Don't cheat! “ I said strictly and the guys laughed while Sehun complained

" 1 … 2 ….3~~~~~ " I said and they started swimming

" Waaaaaah~ ! Pulliii .. pulliii~~~~~! "I shouted and stood up to cheer for them! They were clumsily swimming while the some looked good at swimming and Lay was the worst at swimming; he was the last one

" Opppa! " I stood up excitedly and shouted while clapping for them and jumping; they were standing at the end of the pool now; panting hard and fighting who was the first place; I was busily laughing at them when I suddenly saw something BIG flying near my head; Was it a bug? Or a bird! It was big!! My eyes widen

" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! " I stepped back scared from it but I ended up Landing in the pool

 

Lay POV

I saw her cheering for the guys; Okay; everyone was perfect at swimming while I wasn't! I was the last to reach! I was panting hard! We all sat there looking at her jumping waving for us along with her thumps up; we saw how she suddenly stopped and was afraid of something trying to avoid it …

"O-O-ooh!"  I said eyes widening; we were at the end of the pool while she was at the beginning of it on the other side; I looked at her stepping back afraid from the bug when she slipped and she landed in the water

"ttttt!" I said jumping in the water again along with the guys rushing to where she was

I reached where she was; I don’t know how I reached there in this speed but I just did; I pulled her out quickly from the water; she gasped for air as long as I pulled her out; frightened she put her arms around my neck hugging me fully; I held her bottom and held her up as her chest now was by my face level; afraid I'll let her go; I held her tighter to assure her that she's fine

" Oppa *cough*  t-take me *cough* *cough* out …  " she said coughing and breathing hardly; I think she drank a good amount of water; I quickly pulled her out of the pool and jumped out beside her rubbing her back gently as she was still in shock and kept on coughing; the guys also were out beside me and ___; I took her to the chairs and wrapped her by a towel

"You okay ___-ah?" Luhan asked sitting beside her concerned; she nodded tightening the towel around her for more warmth

"Drink this" Kris said handing her a fresh juice; she sipped some of it and looked around her while blinking cutely probably afraid another bug will be flying; I held my laughter when she drank some more after she made sure nothing was around at the moment

"Aiyoo! stupid bug! Almost killed me! "She mumbled cutely in a low tone that was more than enough for us to hear

"BUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~~~~" the guys cracked up and I laughed along with them; guess they were holding their laughter as well; I looked at her pouting and laughing along with the guys probably embarrassed but one word kept echoing in my ear *Oppa* she said Oppa a while ago; Or maybe? She didn't notice who was the one holding her? I brushed the thought away and just smiled while looking at her

"Enough swimming for today, Let's go eat now" Suho said and we all headed to the apartment; we all went to take a shower!

 ___ was the one to taking a shower now; we all were sitting on the living room chatting when she came again surprising us by her appearance; I mean it's weird because it's been months now and every day we see her in that maid dress which I really hate but she insists in wearing it; Currently she was wearing a mini lovely dress; she was dangerously cute actually; my heart was bounding crazily when I saw her wet hair

 

 

____ POV

I finished changing and went out to see what are we going to eat; I was really hungry and as usual some comments about how pretty, cute, hot; I looked in my outfit and shyly I just smile

"What do you want to eat?" I said and they looked at me

"You want to cook for us?" they said and I looked at them weirdly

"and what's wrong with that?" I said looking at them

"No! It's a vacation for you too so you should only relax " Baekhyun said smiling to me

"yeah~ so come here princess; we already ordered food from a Chinese restaurant" Luhan Oppa said motioning for me to come sit next to him; I smiled and went and sat beside him but Lay was right next to me; I looked at him and he looked back; I looked away quickly; although we interacted a lot today it was still awkward between us

“So ….. What are your plans for the rest of the day? “I said and they put on their thinking faces

"Let's have dinner today down beside the pool! " Chen suggested

"Lovely!" I said smiling widely

"Alright then " Kris said looking at me while smiling; I smiled back at him shyly

“Let’s play something before food arrives; what do you think? Am bored" Tao said pouting

“Truth or dare?” Kai who barely speak said with a cheesy smile

"Okay!" Luhan said putting his water bottle on the ground and we all sat in a circle; it was like my first time playing it; I know it but since I didn't have friends in school so nobody played it with me before; I smiled and they turned the bottle

" Lay hyung and Kris hyung " Tao said excitedly

"Truth or dare?" Lay said smirking

“Dare" Kris Oppa said challenging

"Show us your abs!!!" Lay said and they all laughed

“But I don’t have that much  …” he said laughing along with us while Lay giving the I don’t care look

 

Lay POV

I looked at ____ while she was smiling shyly to Kris; I was jealous to be honest; I feel like Kris has feelings for her and she does too?; I wanted to see her reaction when he reveals his abs; will she blush?

"Araso~ " he said standing up; I saw ___ laughing with the guys shyly while covering her eyes

" 1 …. 2 " Kris said and I was looking at her still covering her eyes; I was actually happy that she didn’t plan to look

" 3 " he said and she peeked through her fingers to see it quickly

"Waaaaaaaaaaaah~~~~ " she said covering her head behind Luhan's back shyly; OBVIOUSLY freaking liking it;  I was really mad;

‘She squealed and blushed; That’s really  ... ugh!!!! She should see mine; They're way better than him’ I thought irritated by her reaction; they turned the bottle again

"Maknae ask ___ " Baekhyun said looking at Sehun and ___ smiling

"Truth?" he asked her and I looked at her and she nodded; he smirked

"When was your first kiss?" he said coolly and all the guys cheered; she covered her face shyly laughing

"well … I didn't have my first kiss yet" she said smiling shyly scratching her back neck

“Eyyyyyyyyy” they all and she blushed madly telling them that she was telling the truth

"Not yet? That means you have a boyfriend?! Or you're in love? And NOT YET had your first kiss with him? " Kai said analyzing the case acting all smart and all of them stopped laughing and looked at him and then looked at her waiting for the answer

"This is another question! It's not fair" she said cutely pouting and turned the bottle

“Oooohooooo” They teased again and she ignored them shooting Kai a deadly glare and they all laughed; so she's in love? Or have a BOYFRIEND!

 

___ POV

The game was starting to get more and more privately and I started to get nervous; what if they asked me about my parents or something? I shouldn't have agreed from the start to play!

"Let's change the game it's boring!" I said out of nowhere; they all looked at me and laughed

"What do you want to play?" Chanyeol asked me and I put on my thinking face for seconds

"Pick one!" I said grinning

"Okay! " D.O said

 "I'll start and then will continue in a circle" he continued and I nodded  

"SNSD or Apink” D.O asked Chanyeol who was sitting next to him

"Apink" Chanyeol said grinning and doing the No No No dance move with his index

"Sulli or Jessica?" Chanyeol asked Luhan

" hmm Sulli " Luhan said simply; and looked at Lay

"Victoria or HyunA? " I looked at Lay who said simply

"Victoria." I looked at him and to be honest that made me jealous to hell! So he likes her? The Chinese, motherly like girl in their company; I was busily thinking when he looked at me on the eyes

"Key or Jonghyun?" he said seriously and I looked at him thinking who to choose but I decided to simply answer like he just did

Lay POV

I saw her smile fading away when I chose Victoria? Maybe she's jealous? But I guess it's my chance to test her love to Jonghyun

" Key or Jonghyun?" she looked at me then she simply stated

"Jonghyun Oppa " she said shyly with a smile

‘Okay! Someone kill me now!’ I thought totally irritated

"Me or Sulli?" she said looking cutely at Luhan confident that he’ll choose her and he who without hesitation came closer to her face when she backed a bit blushing

"Angel" he said and she laughed cutely hitting his arm lightly

"Who's Angel?" she said looking at him shyly

"Is there any other Angels beside YOU?" he said emphasizing on you; what kills me that she was okay with the whole flirting thingy now

" and you said you hate flirting guys; you like it now" I spat out without noticing smirking and all eyes were on me now

"Yah~ what's wrong with you Lay! we're just playing" Kris said and I ignored the whole thing; Turns came again and I asked her to choose among someone and Jonghyun again; still she said confidently without the slightest hesitation  

" Jonghyun Oppa. " I was really jealous; I was so pissed off and confused at the moment

" Lay who will you choose ____ or Victoria? " I looked at ___ and she looked back at me; I was really angry by her cold glare; She was like *I CARE LESS!* and it really irritated me

 "Of course Victoria!!!" I spat out hurtfully and everyone looked at ___ as silence filled the place

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing

"I'll -- get the food" Chen said and went to get the food with Chanyeol and Baekhyun

 

___ POV

He kept on asking me about random guys but wouldn't stop putting Jonghyun Oppa the other choice and I just choose Jonghyun Oppa every time; I mean he's the closet to me among SHINee!

 If he just asked me to choose between Him and Jonghyun; I would've said Lay of course … or maybe not?

 "Lay who would you choose ___ or Victoria?" I looked at him in the eyes; I tried my best to hide my anxiety; I was really nervous; I put on my *Don't care much* face along with the emotionless expression

 "Of course Victoria!" he said hurtfully and everyone looked at me; I smiled a little bit; when the bell rang; I thanked god like hundred times for letting the delivery man arrive in the right time; I was afraid they or specifically him would see the hurt in my eyes …. 

He stood up to wash his hands and I went to the kitchen to bring some plates; I looked at his back

"You know how much that hurt?" I thought and tried to act like nothing happen maybe you don't know but I'm pretty good in acting!

"Enjoy your meal!" I said sitting and started eating; although I don't feel like eating anymore but I guess they'll know that I was hurt by Lay comment so I just acted normal

"Eat more angel " Luhan Oppa said putting more food in my plate; I smiled softly to him, I like my nickname

 "Thank you Oppa " he nodded smiling and continue eating; the whole lunch went by smoothly and I excused myself to the bathroom

I was still thinking of Lay choosing Victoria over Me; I felt tears forming in my eyes threatening to fall; when suddenly I snatch my phone out of my pocket dialing Jonghyun Oppa number; I exited the bathroom heading to the opened room; I laid down on the bed and now my back was facing the door

"Yoboseyo …" I heard his voice; for some reason whenever I hear his voice it's like I don't know; this weird and confusing feeling is attacking me for a while now; whenever I think about Jonghyun my heart skip a beat; maybe I like him? No! But I like Lay?... But he doesn't like me back; why would I cling into him? He already said it; He likes Victoria and …. It hurts!

"Yoboseyo?" I heard Jonghyun oppa voice again that brought me to reality again

"Oppa …." I said softly smiling as if he can see me

"You okay ___? " he asked with concerned tone

"Mmm ..” I replied softly

“I'm fine Oppa … I just missed you" I said lovingly

 

Lay POV

"I'll rest for awhile so I can go out later "I said leaving the guys in the living room watching TV

I headed to the room; I was really pissed; she didn't even care about me choosing another girl over her; she sure like Jonghyun; which is obvious now; I mean if she likes me she would have chosen anyone else beside him; but three times choosing him without thinking twice!!! That’s sure is love; I pushed the door when I saw ___ laying on the bed; I thought she was sleeping but

"I'm fine Oppa … I just missed you" she said sweetly through the phone; I was shocked; my heart ached; It was beating so fast that I felt breathless; I wanted to snatch the phone out of her hand and tell her how much I love her; I wanted to tell her that I like her billion times more than Victoria

"Oh!! Jonghyun Oppa you are not lying right?!! You are going to shoot the MV here!!" I heard her excited voice; I exited the room quietly closing the door so that she wouldn't see me!

"Jong -- hyun?" I thought

"Okay then we'll have dinner together tonight" she said and I peeked inside again; she stood up coming toward the door; I hide myself till she was far enough from the room; I entered the room and sat on the bed; I ran my fingers through my hair; I was burning, something was chocking me; I was hardly breathing; I laid my head on the pillow; I tried to sleep but I couldn't

"So she IS in love! ….. With Jonghyun … " I murmured and buried my face into the pillow 

"Love … really hurts" I thought closing my eyes tightly not letting any tear to escape
