[Sorry about the long wait... was almost considering deleting this story]

"I miss you."

The lights dimmed when the song ended but soon the stage was flooded with bright lights yet again and Byul could see Seunghoon looking at her intently as if to see if she had any reaction to what he was trying to tell her. 

Byul stared at Seunghoon blankly, with nary an emotion on her pale face framed by her curly pink locks. Then she looked away.

Seunghoon could almost hear his heart crack a little at her indifference. "Didn't she get my message? Didn't she see me looking at her all through out the song? Why didn't she send me a message after she left? She changed her appearance? She looks so pretty with her pink hair! Wait, did she meet someone new? I should have called her... why didn't I?" 

If Seunghoon weren't so caught up in his flurry of thoughts, he would have noticed that Byul was holding in her breath all this while and had to look away because her cheeks were firing up. Placing her hand on her chest, she tried to calm her nerves and started to breathe normally. The cheeky boy whom she was thinking of for the past three months just told her he missed her.

"Byul! Mark out their positions on the stage with tape!" 

Dong Woo's booming voice woke Byul from her reverie and she snapped her neck towards the stage. 

Seunghoon was gone. She knew they had to leave the stage for the next rehearsal but his sudden disappearance from the stage left her in slight despair. She wanted more of him.

Seunghoon took a swig of water from the bottle and chugged the contents down, dribbling some water beads down his neck as his adam's apple bobbed up and down furiously. 

"She is treating me like dirt again. She is stone cold Byul again. Why is she treating me like that? She forgot about me? Did she meet someone new?" Seunghoon's insecurities were driving him so mad that he didn't even realise that Byul stepped into Winner's waiting room. 

"Byul! We miss you!"

"Hey, that's what I wanted to say first!"

"I LURVVVEEE your pink hair! And did you get a new piercing? You badass girl!"

"What happened? You finally decided to revert being a female?"

Seunghoon refused to be distracted by the comments thrown at Byul by s and stayed stoically facing the wall while trying to finish off the non-existent water in the plastic bottle.

Byul smiled at the monkeys fondly (yes, even Nam Tae Hyun) and handed them the rundown for the concert.

"I'm glad to meet you again. Dong Woo hyung said you guys will rehearse in about 30 minutes time for your next song. Solving some technical problems," Byul paused to bend down and untie some bags, "Here's your lunch. I went out to buy your favourites."

"We are dreaming right, Hyung?" Mino screeched, "Han Byul is smiling at us."

"Ya... it's starting to creep me out," Taehyun whispered loudly as he took a few steps back, casting suspicious looks toward the bento boxes, "She even bought food for us!"

Jinwoo smiled and helped her to distribute the food, "Come on guys, it's not every day we get to be treated nice by Byul. Let's eat!"

"Am I gonna die eating Han Byul's food?" Taehyun asked as he examined the box closely. 

"Of course! I have been trying to kill you since I've met you. What good reason for me to stop?" Byul smirked and stuck her tongue out.

"Thanks Byul, you're the best!" Seungyoon beamed and ruffled her hair to show his appreciation.

Byul grinned at Seungyoon and watched his team devour the food like a mother watching her kids eat. 

"Hoonie Hyung! Why aren't you eating? Byul bought your favourite!" Mino shouted while spewing bits of food in the direction of the evil magnae who gave his hyung a sharp look. 

Byul held the box tightly in her hands. Unknown to the rest, Seunghoon's box was special; Byul prepared his food this morning. Walking over to the ever thirsty boy (still drinking air), she tapped him on the shoulder and gave him the bento box with one hand. 

Seunghoon turned around and was stunned beyond words to see Byul smiling shyly at him and handing him food. He stared at her with his mouth agape and empty bottle stll in his hands. Slowly, he took the box of food from Byul and the slight brush against her hand sent sparks down his spine. 

Seunghoon somehow managed to cough out a thanks and Byul slipped out of the room quietly with a slight smile, leaving the Winner monkeys behind to feast on their food.

"Will he like my food?" Byul couldn't stop wondering if Seunghoon would like her simple dish. She was glad she was alble to do someting for him after all these months of missing him.

Seunghoon stood still for a moment after Byul left the room. 

"Hyung! Not hungry? Gimme your food then!" Seungyoon snatched the bento box form Seunghoon's hands.

"Hey gimme back my food!"

Seungyoon opened the box greedily and soon realised something was not quite right. 

"Hoonie hyung, your food seems home-made, the box is different!"

"Let me see! Let me see!" 

"Hey, yours in a nice bento box whereas ours' in disposable boxes! NOT FAIR!"

Seunghoon strode over to his gang of whiny members and took his box of food back. 

"Shut up and eat!" The Winner monkeys stared at their hyung and mumbled more incoherent words but continued to stuff their faces with what they now coined as 'non-home cooked food'. However, Taehyun had a scandalous, all-knowing smile on his face as he watched his hyung walk towards the door. 

Seunghoon stepped outside and found a secluded and quiet corner. He held the bright cheery yellow box his hand and his heart skipped a beat. 

"Did Byul make this for me?"

Seunghoon opened the lid and smiled. It was his favourite Oyakudon and it was obviously home-made with green peas arranged in a smiley face on top of the rice. Taking measured mouthfuls of the rice and chicken, Seunghoon couldn't help but smile like an idiot. 

"She still likes me!"
