That Monday, that grin never left Kris’ lips which all the more made him the target for the questions and all when his friends came over to check why is that grin still plastered on his lips.

“Hey, you know what? That hyena grin is creeping me now. What is that thing she gave you?” Fei asked as they lounge over the hallways.

“Yeah, your princess even ran after you. Is there progress already?” Xiumin asks.

Kris just shook his head all the more making his friends groan in frustration. As they are pestering the tall guy, Kyungsoo joined them.

“Hey, how did you like my surprise?” he tapped Kris’ shoulder.

“Surprise?” Kris asks in confusion as all eyes turns on the wide-eyed guy.

Baekhyun laughs, “You mean, that is what she gave you that you don’t want us to see? Come on Kris! All of us had received one of those,” the he continued laughing.

Kris had to stop himself from punching his friends and they all laughed all the more when they saw him blush. He just ignored them, leaving them as he walks down the pathway to get to the gym.

Along the way, he saw Sooyoung seated on one of the bench under the shade of a tree. She looks so calm and collected with a book in hand. Finding it hard to stop himself, he turned to get to her.

He slowly took the vacant space beside her; turning to check the title of the book.

“Fancy of having your own Christian Grey?” he prompted the conversation.

She immediately looked up, blushing so cute like she was caught doing something bad. He had to chuckle at that.

“You like th
