It was that time of year again.  The time of year that every university student hated.   It was time for their annually university camping trip, and everyone was unamused by the event because of its stupid survival games.  It was something that they all found pointless, but in reality this trip taught them a very important life lesson. Hyerin already knew what was in store for her on this trip and she was planning on doing things differently this time around.  She did not want the same thing to happen again. Hyerin knew if she develop feelings for him on this trip, she would end up alone in her future.

"Ok kids, we need to do many things before we start our grand adventure in the woods today.  I have split you up into groups to do different task, and the groups that you are assigned to cannot be changed.  You were given a piece of paper on the bus with a letter A, B, or C on it. That letter indicated what set up task you are going to do." The professor said as he cleared his throat. "I want Group A to pitch tents. Group B to get our dining area set up, and Group C, please collect fire wood for later this evening.  After we have everything situated, I will tell you the details about the adventures you lucky kids are going to go on.  Now get to work."

"Five bucks that our dear presidents son is not going to help us with anything..." Kibum whispered to Mir. 

Mir looked at Kibum and rolled his eyes.  "I bet you twenty bucks that he son is going to get a free pass on all of today's activities. What Group is he in again?"

"Group A, I think. I cannot believe we are in the same group as the spoiled brat.  I bet her is already sleeping in one of the cabins we saw as our bus drove up here."  Kibum whispered back, hoping no one would hear him.

"I think you two should stop making bets and get to work."  Their professor, Jongwan said as he crossed his arms. "Your fellow students have started already, and you should too. Don't you want to go on the little game I have set up for you at a decent time?"

"Of course we want to go on your little survival game at a decent time.  I do not want to be out in those woods once night fall comes." Kibum shivered, "who knows what is out there..."

"I assure you, this campsite is safe."

"But those woods aren't, who knows what type of creatures are out there?"  Kibum said as he shivered.

"Like I said before this camp site is safe.  Nothing will hurt you here."

"Sangjangnim, are you going to play favorites today?" Mir asked.

"Everyone is going to do their part, especially Sunggyu sii. No one, especially the president of the university's son, does not get a free ride on this trip."  The Jongwan glared at his students.  "Now help get this place up to our university's standards. We want to start our games as soon as possible."

Mir rolled his eyes, "He probably wants to get rid of us so he can sleep."

"I bet on that." Kibum sighed as they helped set up a few tents.  They looked over and noticed Sunggyu was helping Dongwoo set up a tent. "Since when are they close?"

"Since their little orphanage trip."  Mir answered. "Dongwoo comforted Sunggyu.  I don't know, you should ask someone who was there because half the student body are in love with him now."

"Why is that?" Kibum asked.

"Because he sings like an angel." Mir rolled his eyes, "I don't know why girls like it when I guy can sing so well."

"I see..." Kibum bit his lip, "Is there anything else?"

"Well it is just not that...I think Dongwoo sees Sunggyu as one of his psychology experiments." Mir rolled his eyes.  "He is just too nice to admit it."

"Why?"

"Sunggyu's family life is not as nice of people believe it is.  I heard rumors that he does whatever his father ask to protect his younger brother, Myungsoo.  Also, Sunggyu's real mother, works in that orphanage. That Sunggyu's father, our dear university president does not allow both of his sons to see his first wife."

"How many wives has he had?"

"I think he is on their third or is it his forth."

"Is gossiping about my family entertaining?" Sunggyu asked as he placed a bucket of water near Mir and Kibum, hoping this would help them get the stakes for the tent into the ground since the grown was a bit tough.  It has not rained for the past couple of weeks.

"Sung...sunggyu...." Mir said as he took a step back.   He did not think Sunggyu would hear him. 

"..." Sunggyu glared at Mir before walking away, what was the point in helping his fellow students if they think he is perfect in every way. His family life proves that there is nothing perfect about him.  He is a failure in his father's eyes.

"Sunggyu where are you going?" Dongwoo asked as he watched Sunggyu hurry past him.  Dongwoo turned his attention to Mir and Kibum, "What did you say to him?"

"Nothing!" Mir said as he turned away from Dongwoo. 

Dongwoo did not believe Mir for one second.  He dropped what he was doing and made his way over to the trouble maker.  "I asked you a question and you should answer it.  What did you say to Sunggyu?"

"That is none of your business."

Hyerin was trying to do her best to avoid Dongwoo, Woohyun, Hoya, and Sunggyu during this trip.  She did not want to have any romantic involvement with any of them today or the rest of this weekend.  She needed to clear her head.    Hyerin knew that Sungyeol was around here somewhere, watching her.  He was either in his angel form or human form, she does not know what Sungyeol would appear to her as today.

"Hey princess..." Sungyeol said as he called up to the girl, who was sitting in one of the oak trees in their camp site.

"Ehhh?" She looked down and suddenly lost her balance, falling out of the three.  Sungyeol lunged forward, catching her in his arms.  He felt her lips brush against his checks, blushing.  He did not understand why he blushed.  He was not supposed to have romantic feelings towards Hyerin.

"You're so clumsy." Sungyeol said as he placed Hyerin's feet on the ground. "Why are you avoiding them."

"That is none of your business..."

"Are you scared that something might happen?"

Why do you always know what is on my mind.

"I take it by your silence that I have hit the nail on its head.  Why are you so scared?"  Sungyeol aske
