Ji-Eun's POV

The fangirls advance towards me, throwing eggs and tomatoes.

One of them kicks my ankle.

Right where it hurts.

I collapse.

I think I just broke it.

They're punching me.

Hitting me.

Just like school.

Insults.

I curl up in a ball, tears running down my face.

The bad memories are flooding me.

A girl kicks my back.

There's still a bruise there.

It's from Wendsday.

I cry out.

The girls' attacks get stronger.

"Help." I whisper.

I never knew it could hurt so much.

Then as suddenly as it all happened...

It stops.

I hear girls squealing.

I look up and see a mop of pink hair.

Shortie.

Maybe my life isn't so bad after all.

Then I black out.

Of course.

I wake up on a sofa.

The room looks kind of like our waiting room, but smaller.

Then 6 faces pop out.

"Fudge!" I scream.

All the other boys take a step back.

"Sorry." I say sheepishly and try to sit up.

My back is dying.

Like, no joking.

It's like someone cut it with an axe.

And my ankle.

Oh, no.

I take a peek at my ankle.

It doesn't look that bad.

Except for the fact that my foot shouldn't be able to point that way.

Oh, god.

What am I going to tell my brothers?

"L.Joe, did you tell anyone?"

He shakes his head.

"Good."

"I need to bring you to Infinite." He says.

"NO!" I shout.

Everyone blinks.

A guy with huge eyes who has a baby face looks at me.

"Noona, we need to tell someone. You're hurt and you have goop all over you. You also kind of have a bruise on your face. And a black eye."

I look in the mirror and say something unladylike.

"My phone. Get me my phone." I say.

A guy hands me my phone and I look at the missed calls.

56 missed calls.

Kai.

Ryeowook oppa.

Sunggyu oppa.

My manager.

Crap.

"No, don't touch it!" A guy named Chunji holds me back as a guy named Changjo and CAP inspect my ankle.

"OW! Cap-sshi, that hurts!"

"Call me oppa."

"Me too!" Chunji pipes up.

I glare.

"CAP oppa, put my ankle down."

"No can do, Ji-Eun."

"What are you going to do?"

"We're going to pop your ankle back into its socket."

"No. No way in hell."

"It won't hurt, don't worry."

"Wait-"

"One..."

"No-"

"Two..."

"But-"

"Three!"

"AARGH!"

"Come on, you need to get back to your waiting room." L.Joe says.

"Um... can we not?" I say weakly.

"No, Ji-Eun, they need to know!" He says.

All the stress, the hurt, the anger comes flooding out.

I cry like the world has ended.

Everyone stares.

"Okay, we won't go!" L.Joe panicks.

I sniffle.

"I need to get to SNSD's waiting room." I mumble.

"That's right down the hallway." Ricky says.

"I can't go like this!" I groan.

L.Joe hands me a baseball cap and a hoodie.

I put them on.

"Can you stand up?" He asks.

"Yes." I say indignantly.

I stand up.

I scream.

I collapse.

"No." I whisper.

Changjo helps me get onto L.Joe's back.

Ba-dump.

I wonder if L.Joe can feel my heart beating.

His back is nice.

And strong.

And muscley.

And-

And I'm going crazy.

BAD Ji-Eun.

CAP oppa hands me my phone and Chunji oppa waves.

We start out the door and down the hallway.

"What the heck happened?" Jessica unnie stares in shock.

"Did you do this?" Tiffany unnie glares.

L.Joe gulps.

"No, unnie, he didn't. He helped me." I say.

Their faces soften.

"I'll call Kai oppa." Seohyun says while looking at L.Joe.

"No, you can't!" I panic.

"Why not?"

"No, they'll worry! I'll tell them myself!"

"But Eun, you-" I send a warning glare at her.

"L.Joe, you can go now. I'll call you later."

"But-"

"Go!"

He leaves with a confused look.

I sigh and put my head in my hands.

Yoona unnie pats my back. "What happened?"

"The fangirls attacked." I groan.

The unnies look at me sympathetically.

I look up with tears in my eyes.

"Unnies, you really can't tell oppas. They'll worry. You know I can't."

"Eunnie, we need to-"

"Unnie, they'll worry and they'll hurt. But if they hurt, I feel like I'm going to die."

Even though my brothers get annoying, I listen to them.

And I don't let them worry.

I have my reasons.

I think unnies did a good job covering up.

My hair is in a bun and hidden my a cap.

I have sunglasses and a mask on.

L.Joe's hoodie is up.

I have tracksuit pants on.

I can barely stand up because of my ankle and my back.

I knock on our door and lean against the wall for support.

Kai opens the door.

"JI-EUN!" He shouts and crushes me in a hug.

Ow.

My back.

I try not to wince.

"Hi, oppa. I'm back."

"WE WERE SO WORRIED!" Ryeowook oppa screams.

No wonder he's the main vocal.

He's hitting notes that I can barely reach.

"I'm fine, oppa. I'm going to go home first, okay?"

He looks at me worriedly, but nods.

I gather up all my stuff with a slight limp.

I hope they don't notice.

I wave goodbye and close the door.

After I leave, Myungsoo oppa tilts his head.

"I've seen that hoodie before."

Then he jumps up.

"OH MY GOD! THAT'S LEE BYUNGHYUN'S HOODIE!"
