Parallel Lines
When Monday came around, I was dreading it to the core, even after Sehun dropped me off. Even though I had my car back, I didn’t want to risk the chance of someone trying to ruin it out of petty bullying so Sehun insisted on giving me a lift rather than having me walk the entire way.
I walked towards my classroom, carefully eyeing people as I passed them to make sure none of them were harbouring a pair of scissors under their jackets. I entered my classroom cautiously, but nothing seemed to happen, in fact students were treating me as if I was invisible which I definitely preferred.
I slid into my seat with a frown on my face, Amber turned around and I shrugged, “I have no idea what’s going on,”
“Damn,” She frowned, “I thought you’d have an inkling,”
Chen leaned over, “So you really don’t know?”
“No idea,” I sighed, “It’s unsettling but I much prefer it,”
“Don’t let your guard down;” Amber told me, “I don’t trust them either way,”
Xiumin walked into the classroom with an annoyed look on his face, he came towards me and placed a folded piece of paper on my desk, “Here,”
“What is this?” I picked up the piece of paper,
He rubbed the back of his neck and sighed, “Just… keep it to yourself okay?” he turned back around and left,
Chen frowned, “What was that about?”
“I have no idea,” I muttered,
It was a note; although very vague it came with the simple instructions of meeting Xiumin on the roof at lunch today. It didn’t say why or anything, just the place and the time.

So at lunch I left Amber with a promise that I would be okay and headed off towards the roof top of the school, I kept my eyes peeled as I watched out in case this was a trick from one of the other students but I couldn’t imagine Xiumin agreeing to something that could potentially harm me.
I pushed the door open and was met with an empty roof top, Xiumin hadn’t arrived yet so I walked over to the bench when I heard the door shut and click.
The moment I heard the click I knew what it was, “Damn it Luhan,” I muttered to myself as I slowly turned around,
He was stood there leaning against the door, his arms folded over his chest and his eyes locked onto mine, “What were you doing on Saturday?”
“Let me think,” I tapped my chin sarcastically, “First I spent an hour and a half to get ready to go to some event my dad invited me to which just so happened to be this guy’s engagement party, not to mention the leader of my crew was there, it was really unsettling but gratefully Sehun – you remember Sehun right?
