*questioned as a girl*

I woke up early in the morning to the alarm of my new phone, given me by TOP. I am still tired somehow, although I slept deeply. I went to school together with Dara. We didn’t really speak much on the way. I don’t know, none of us felt like it.

Now I am sitting in my classroom waiting for our teacher to arrive. Jay is sitting at the back between Taecyeon and Chansung once again. I see, he is still mad about yesterday. Because I postponed the answer to Dara's question.

“So, you guys didn’t make up yet?”, Taecyeon is being nosy.

Dang it, why am I sitting in front of them? I always have to hear what they are talking about. I don’t wanna. Ugh. I wish TOP also gave me a headset.

“At least she is not taken…”, Chansung is whispering.

Yubin is turning around and looking at the boys in the back.

“Not taken?”, she is asking them, “So, you guys only hooked up?”

Only hooked up? Who does she think I am? Like seriously, I am not that easy! I mean… I-

“Yah! This is none of your business, Yubin.”, Taecyeon is scolding her, “Turn around and face the whiteboard, .”

Whoooooow, what the actual has gotten into him? I mean, I can’t stand Yubin either, but no need to be harsh…
Yubin is glaring at him, crossing her arms and turning around.

“CL?”, Nichkhun is suddenly poking my arm, “Are you alright? You look pale…”

Pale? I don’t feel sick, just a little tired.
I am smiling at him and shaking my head. I don’t need him to worry about me. He is softly smiling back at me.

Finally, our teacher is entering the room.

“Mr. Park Joonhyung has entered the room. Class greeting.”, Jay is ordering us to do.

We are all standing up together, bending 90 degrees and taking seat as soon as our teacher tells us to.

“Anyone missing?”, he is asking the class president.

Jay is negating.
Wow, back in 2YG at least one person would always be missing. TOP. 2JYP is different, these students are more eager to get their diploma.

“Good. Well, today I am going to talk to you guys about some complaints by my co-workers.”, he is informing his students calmly, “There were few incidents including Chaelin, Yubin, Min, Feifei and Jay. I hope you guys handled it already. I don’t want anyone of you to fight.”

“Everything’s alright now… no worries.”, Jay is saying reassured.

“Oh yeah? Nothing is alright!”, Yubin is butting in, “She is walking around in our school with a kiss mark on her neck! Like, no shame at all! This is an elite school!”

What the ? I can’t believe she is trying to bring me down this hard. Girl, calm your ing already!

“Oh, really?”, Mr. Park seems a little ashamed about this topic.

! I am placing my chin into my hand, covering the bruise on my lower lip with my fingers. Nearly forgot about it. Damn it. What do I do now?

“Tell us the truth, CL.”, Min is challenging me, “Or shall we?”

Ok, my patience is breaking. I can handle a lot of bull, but ain’t nobody trynna pressure me! THAT!

“It’s my fault.”, Jay is suddenly speaking up about it, “It’s not a kiss mark. A few days ago, she tripped over because of playing basketball with us during break. Someone of the other team stepped against her neck… Luckily nothing worse happened.”

He is covering up for me. Once again, he is helping me out of this misery, in which I wouldn’t be if it weren’t because of our one-night stand. Damn it. How could I end up in bed with him?! I must be nuts! I must be crazy, right?
Crazy… or madly in love.
Madly in Love? What the am I thinking?! NO! No no no! I- I am confused that’s all.

Taecyeon and Chansung are nodding to their leader’s words. Backing each other as it has always been the case.

“I see, be careful next time, Chaelin.”, Mr. Park is telling me and then finally changing the topic, “Now this issue is cleared, there’s another important one. The ones who participate in the M.A.M.A competition have to go on a 2 days 1 night trip. Thursday to Friday-”

“But Mr. Park! They are lying!
