"What did you and Seol do?!" Kai had been asking this question non-stop ever since he and the rest of exo gathered in Suho's dorm room. As an end result, Tao was already held down by both Luhan and Baekhyun. "Yah! I didn't do anything bad, I swear!" Tao urged himself to stand up from his chair, only to be pushed back down. Of course he wasn't going to tell s. Knowing his cheesy nature, they would just make fun of him again. 

Kai sighed as he sat across Tao on Suho's bed. "Well, does anyone else like to try getting something out of him?" The members looked around at each other, smiling devilishly when they signaled Kai. "Okay then, Tao-ah, have it your way.... GO!" In a flash, almost all the members toppled Tao down to the floor, tickling him as they all fell. "C'mon Tao... this... we can do this all night!" Kai yelled as he held Tao's right foot steady. Kris, Suho, Chanyeol and Xiumin looked at the younger being tortured from Xiumin's bed and sighed. "Man, why can't he just tell us?" Kris sighed to himself as Suho shook his head. "Because he knows we are going to make fun of him." With that, the rest of the members stopped as Tao called for mercy. Helping Tao up from the floor he started to speak. 

"I bought Seol 100 roses for our 100th day together and then I took her out to dinner where Suho hyung helped me set the entire place up with all the dancing waiters and all... after that," Tao drifted off as one of his hands slowly went towards the necklace Seol had given him earlier. "After that, she gave me this necklace which is engraved with her saying 'I love you' to me. Then you guys showed up and ruined the mood! Happy now?!" The members cheered on for Tao as well as a little. "Yah, you guys are so cheesy, you guys are perfect together!" Chen exclaimed in pure excitement. The other members nodded in agreement as Tao blushed. "Too bad, I should've made a move before you did." Baekhyun teased, causing Tao to glare at him. Chanyeol on the other hand walked over to the door, quietly shutting it so one one would notice, but one of the 11 did. 

Kai followed his hyung outside the door to find him just sitting cross-legged against the wall as he continuously sighed to himself. "Still trying to 'get over' Seol hyung?" Chanyeol looked up to find Kai making his way over to him, seating himself next to Chanyeol. "I thought I would be over it by now. Seeing Tao and Seol happy also makes me happy but it also makes me sad at the same time." Kai sighed as he patted the Chanyeol's back. "I... I don't know what to do with you hyung." Was all Kai could say before the two stood up, going back into the room with the other 10 members.

"Are you sure that you're oaky, unnie?" Seol asked one last time before the arrived in front of Ji Son's dorm room. The older smiled as Seol before putting her key card into the door. "I'm fine Seol. Just... just be careful know. I've never seen that side of Jimin before and it scares me." Seol reassured her by patting her shoulders. "Unnie, everything's going to be just fine. There's only so much that guy can do, and besides, you have me to protect you!" The two laughed. "Thank you Seol." Seol smiled. "Anytime Ji Son unnie. Oh! By the way, we have the rehearsal for the wedding tomorrow... your father told me to tell you that um..." Seol drifted off. Ji Son looked at her with a steady gaze. "Seol?" Seol chuckled nervously. "He made Kai his best man..." Ji Son's eyes widened with surprise. "What?!" Seol could only sigh. "Kai came over with Tao one time and since he knew that you and Kai had a very long history, he chose him since he doesn't have anyone else..." Immediately Seol noticed Ji Son's nervousness. "What if he still hates me? After what I did to you and s?" Seol grunted. "Why can't I just tell him that you've changed? that you've changed into the girl he probably fell in love with in the first place?" Ji Son looked into the youngers eyes and sighed. "Because... because I'm scared that if I do, he still won't accept me, nevertheless forgive me for everything I did." 

After hearing her confession, Seol sighed. "Unnie, you know Kai isn't like that. He'll listen and then make his decision." Ji Son could only sigh. "Maybe... hey Seol, it's getting late. You should get back to your dorm. Goodnight." Ji son was about to turn when Seol took her in for a hug. Taken by surprise, Ji Son hesitantly hugged the younger back. Its been so long since she'd had someone to care for her, it almost brought tears in her eyes. "Seol squeezed a little tighter. as if Seol had read her mind, she spoke, "Thank you unnie for caring for me too." The two parted their hug as Seol smiled. "Goodnight unnie. See you tomorrow." With that Seol waved and soon disappeared from her sight. 

The next day started off pretty normal for Ji Son. Jimin was no where in sight as she her favorite class finally came up in her schedule. Dance. She jogged into her dressing room as fast as she could. Dance was the only way to get her mind to focus on things she really needed to sort out. As Ji Son was changing, she overheard snippets of gossip going on behind her back. 

"That's Ji Son right? The one who broke up with Jimin sunbaenim?"

"Yeah, that's her. I heard that she and him had a big fight and because of her, sunbae got arrested. She's even got the nerve to file a restraint order for him." 

Ji Son inhaled deeply as she quietly changed into her dance clothes. Try as she might, the gossip continued. "So is Jimin sunbae going to be alright?"

"Tch, of course he is. He's better off single. She was holding him down." 

"Yeah, I totally agree! You know there were rumors saying that she broke up with sunbae because she still loved Kai sunbae." 

Ji Son froze at the sound of Kai's name before shaking the feeling off. She could feel their stares at the back of her head, but still, Ji Son refused to let them win. 

"She's still in love with Kai sunbaenim even when she was dating Jimin sunbae. Wow, talk about a two-timer..."

"I know right? But there's no worry anyways. I'm totally sure that Kai sunbae doesn't love her anymore." The girls behind her snickered as Ji Son gripped tightly onto her towel. "After what she did, no one will be able to love her. She just ruined herself when she broke it off with Ji---" 

"Is that all you do all day, gossip?" Both the girls and Ji Son turned around to find a very unhappy Seol. The girls immediately quieted down as Seol glared at them. "What goes on around with other people doesn't concern you, so why don't you stop spreading your stupid rumors and shut up?!" Seol crossed her arms as the defeated girls walked upstairs to the dance room, eventually turning back to Ji Son. 

"Unnie, are you okay?" Ji Son didn't look at Seol straight in her eyes, but slightly nodded. "Seol walked up towards her locker as she sat down on a bench beside her. "I know you were trying to ignore them but sometimes people like that need to be told when to stop." Ji Son turned to Seol as Seol smiled and encouraging smile. Ji Son smiled back as she closed her locker. "I know. I'm just worried. What if that bad me comes back, I won't be able to stop at that point." Seol chuckled. "Unnie, I know that bad you is gone, because you let me in your heart, and now that I'm in there, I'm not letting that bad you come back. Now, let's go, the dance room is still empty. You can teach you left-footed step-sister how to dance decently." Ji Son couldn't help but laugh a little too loudly, causing Seol to turn back at her. "What?" Ji Son smiled. "You do have two left-feet. You have it badly." The two giggled as the jogged up to the dance room.

"Okay, it's a simple gallop. It's left, left then right. So in total, its a waist movement with your arms making an 'x' then the gallop." (For those you don't know, it is a dance step in SNSD's Run Devil Run ^.^)

Seol watched Ji Son once more before trying to follow, failing right after. Ji Son completely cracked up as Seol tried to do what she did. Dance class hadn't even started and Seol was already sweating.  "aish, I can't do this!" Seol exclaimed as Ji Son held her stomach from all the laughter. "Omo, that was so funny!" Seol tried to glare at the older, only to end up laughing along. 

"Seol-ah!" The two girls turned around to find both Bora and Chanyeol looking at the two with unamused faces. Though only Bora had the courage to walk up to them and speak. Once getting to them, Bora glared at Ji Son and looked at Seol. "Seol-ah, Chanyeol oppa and I were looking for you. Why are you here with... her?" The emphasis on 'her' was clearly heard from both girls as Ji Son coughed awkwardly. "Seol, I guess your friends are here. I'll go... find mine. See you after school." With that Ji Son gave the smallest smile towards Bora as she bid Seol a goodbye. And even before she got to say anything, Seol was pulled to the other side of the dance room by Bora. 

"Yah! Why are you with her?! Omo, did she threaten you or anything? You're like sweating like crazy!" Bora had gone all crazy as Seol tried to pull her body back away, only to bump into Chanyeol. "Seol-ah, are you okay?" Chanyeol tried to ask, only receiving a huge sigh from Seol.  "Guys, I'm fine!!!" The two stopped what they were doing as they looking at her. "Ji Son unnie and I were just talking. You know, if you give her a chance, she's not that bad at all." Seol crossed her arms as Bora blinked a few times. 

"You're defending her? Seol-ah, I think you're sick. C'mon, well tell ssem so you could---"

"I'm fine!!!" Seol yelled, causing most of the students to look over her way. "I know you two don't like unnie, but she really isn't a bad person as you think. She just really need someone to be by her side, and that person is me." "But how about Jimin?" Chanyeol asked. Seol looked up at him and frowned. "Oppa, unnie and Jimin-sshi broke up yesterday. Bora-ah, that's why I left, because Ji Son really needed support." Chanyeol could only nod, as did Bora. "I still don't trust her..." Bora mumbled. Chanyeol nudged her to stop talking as Seol finally glared at her. "Fine. I don't need you to judge unnie because of a misunderstanding. I'll see you guys later." Without another word out of the two, Seol turned to job back to Ji Son, as she was looking like a lost puppy in the spacious dance room.

***

"Unnie!" Ji Son looked over to find Bora glaring at her as Seol was coming her way. "Oh... Seol-ah... what are you doing here? You should go back to your friends." Seol happily shook her head. "Aniyo, unnie.  They need to learn not to judge people by their cover. So you'll be stuck with me for the entire day." Seol smiled, causing Ji Son to smile as well. "Thank you Seol-ah." Seol eyes widened. "Oh! Unnie." Ji son looked at her. "Oh, wae?" Seol smiled. "You talked to me informally, we should've done that a long time ago!" The two laughed as class started. As Seol was with Ji Son, both Bora and Chanyeol couldn't help but look over at the two every once in a while. Bora scoffed as Chanyeol kept his words to himself as he saw Seol laugh at what Ji Son was saying. 'Maybe Ji Son-sshi isn't that bad.'

"Omo, you scared me." Seol had just finished changing and was waiting for Ji Son to finish when she had bumped into Chanyeol outside. "Oh, Seol-ah." Ever since earlier, all Chanyeol could feel in the air was awkwardness, not to mention that now Bora and Seol aren't talking to each other. "Seol-ah, um... are you still going to join us for lunch?" Seol gave him a sympathetic smile. "Oppa, do you know who it feels to be wrongly accused because people just so happen to "understand" certain situations perfectly?" Chanyeol blinked a few times before shaking his head as Seol gave a small smile.

"Oppa, I know you don't. But the thing is, Ji Son unnie is experiencing that right now since she broke things off with Jimin-sshi and there is no one by her side. I need to be there for her to let her know there is someone that cares. I would've loved to eat with you guys, but unnie is on a bad foot with everyone there. I just think that I'll spend time with her for once. Is that too much to ask?" Chanyeol didn't know what got into him as he suddenly pulled Seol in for a hug. Feeling Seol squirm under him, he chuckled. "It's not too much to ask whatsoever." Chanyeol then released Seol from his grip. "Even though I'm not on best terms with Ji Son-sshi either, I'm willing to give it a try, for you." With that, Seol smiled, this time, it was her who took Chanyeol in for a hug. "Oppa, you don't know how much that means for both me and Ji Son unnie. Thank you." 

"Seol-ah?" The two parted as they turned to find a very vulnerable looking Ji Son. "Unnie, are you ready to go?" The older nodded as Seol bid a fast farewell towards Chanyeol as the two headed off to the cafe first. 

"Seol-ah, aren't you going to sit with your friends?" Ji Son asked as they sat down at Ji Son's regular table. Seoul smiled. "Unnie, what do you not understand about me sticking to you like glue? So, what do want for lunch, let's go together." Ji Son didn't even get a chance to give in her agreement as Seol pulled her on line for their food. Just like in the locker room earlier, there was constant whispers going on around the whole Ji Son and Jimin thing. Seol tried her best to call those people off but there was just too many students for just one Seol. Ji Son had decided to ignore them, she's a pro in ignoring this that annoy her afterall.

"Seol's late, wasn't she supposed to come out with you two?" Tao whined to both Chanyeol and Bora. Bora said nothing and instead scoffed, making Chanyeol fidget in his seat. "Chanyeol-ah, are you okay?" Suho patted the younger's back, only to receive silence in return. Knowing that he wouldn't get anything out of him, Suho turned to Bora. "Bora-yah, is there really something wrong? Seol is late and you three come here together everyday." Bora sighed as she put her spoon down. "Seol's not going to sit with us today. Apparently, she wants to spend time with the witch who hurt her instead." At her bold statement, everyone at the table looked at her, especially Kai. "What? She's with Ji Son?!" Tao cried out loud as he stood up from his seat to find a glimpse of Seol. "There!" The members looked towards where Tao was pointing as they saw Seol and Ji Son seating themselves a few feet away from them. "SEOL-AH!" Tao yelled as the called girl looked up by hearing her boyfriend's voice. Both she and Ji Son's eyes went towards the EXO table as everyone's eyes was looking over at them. 

Seol especially noticed Kai facial expression slowly darkening at the sight. Sighing, Sel had taken out her new phone Ji Son's father had given her a few days before as she texted Tao.

From: Seollie<3

                      Tao-ah, I'm fine. I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier but I'm sitting with unnie today.

From: My boyfriend Tao~

                      Yah! Don't you think I don't know that? Why are you with her anyway?

From: Seollie<3

                     "Aish! Because she really needs someone right now! and I know if I bring unnie there, you guys will shut her out. I don't want that for her. Tao-ah, I love you but please let me have this day with my sister. If you want, you're more than welcome to sit here."

Tao read his texts out loud for everyone else to hear. "What? She needs someone? What about that Jimin dude from Kris hyung's basketball team?" Lay asked. Bora rolled her eyes before speaking. "Cuz that girl and that bastard broke up yesterday night. Gossip is all around the school. That's why Seol left our dorm last night." 

As soon as Bora had finished her sentence, a booming voice came right after from one of the entrances.

"YOU."
