Chapter 05

힘내세요 (Cheer up)

After their discussion, Sungjong and her friends had come up with a decision which is….

THEY JOIN THE CHEERLEADING CLUB

The next morning, they barge into the principal office to tell principal Choi about their decision about the club

“Good morning Principal Choi~” greets Sungjong “I will tell you our decision about the cheerleading club.” She said

“Go on.” Said Principal Choi

“We agree to join the club.” Said Sungjong

“Oh, that’s good then.” Said Principal Choi “but since all of you barge into my room and without permission you have to write and apology letter.” She continues

“We did, here you go.” Said Sungjong giving a 6 stack of paper containing their apology letter

“Okay then you are all dismiss except for Aron.” Said Principal Choi

All of them get out from the principal office except Aron who’s in conflict inside himself. It’s between returning to America or doing the cheerleading spec for Oh Ha Young

“So Aron, I heard you cancel your flight back to America.” Said Principal Choi, Aron nods

“I have to stay, with my friends.” Said Aron in a broken Korean “Uhm.. I don’t think talking in Korean seems to be a good idea, Miss.” He continues

“Okay then, if you say so.” Said Principal Choi

After their discussion, Aron got out from the principal room with no sign of happiness or sadness which worries all of the members

“What happen, Aron?” asks Sungjong

Guess what?” he said with a smirk

“What?” they asks

I’M FLIPPING STAYING IN KOREA!!” he shouts

“YAY!!” all of them cheer as they did a group hug


During break time, Sungjong decides to stay at the rooftop to calm herself

“I did it!!” she shouts “Lee Sungjong hwaiting!! Royals’ hwaiting!!! SCREW YOU CHEERLEADING SPEC!!” she continues to shout

“What are you doing?” asks Myungsoo as he stands beside her

“Yah! That’s so rude of you! You basically just ruined the mood.” Said Sungjong with a pout, Myungsoo just chuckle

“If you want to do that do it on the mountain, not here. what if the teachers see you?” said Myungsoo

“So what’s your decision about the newly united club?” asks Myungsoo

“Well… WE decide to join it. After all, Sulli told me that Ha Young threatens her that if she rejects the offer Ha Young will do something even worse.” Sungjong answers

“Heol! Not because of me but her?” pouts Myungsoo

“Why would you become a reason? Your attempt to convince me didn’t work.” Answers Sungjong

“Thank you for joining then.” Said Myungsoo

“You’re welcome.” Answers Sungjong lazily because she’s obviously too lazy to deal with this guy right now

“Hmm now that I think of it, being handsome does has its advantage, don’t you think?” said Myungsoo

“Whatever, I’m leaving.” Said Sungjong as she walks away but Myungsoo pulls her back by her wrist

“Oh no, you’re not going anywhere Lee Sungjong.” Said Myungsoo

“Hey, I’m not getting another punishment point because of you.” She pouts

“Don’t you even know what day is today?” Myungsoo asks

“hmm Wednesday?” she answers confusedly

“Which means?” asks Myungsoo

“Club period.” She guesses

“Bingo!” said Myungsoo with a smirk

“Now that you know it’s club period, let’s skip class together. Not to mention that you don’t have any club.” Myungsoo said

“Kim Myungsoo, you do know it’s Ha Young’s fault on the first place don’t you?” she answers with a cute pout, Myungsoo chuckles because of her cuteness

“Okay, okay. Let’s go.” He said as they walk back to their club rooms which in this case it’s now co-ed with the Royals


Meanwhile outside of the schools’ gate there stands a woman with a black sweater and white skirt. She walks into the school but she’s very confused

“Where is the principal office?” she wonders as she looks around

Mr. Jung and Mr. Kim who see this try to get her attention but Mr. Jung is faster than him and taps the woman on the shoulder

“May I help you miss?” he asks

“Ye—yes! Do you know where the principal office is? I’m a new teacher.” She answers with a giggle.

Mr. Jung nods and explains to her how to get to the principal office

“Okay then, thank you very much.” She said as she half walk half run to the principal room

‘She’s so adorable.’ Thought Mr. Jung

“ooh it seems that you like her, am I right?” jokes Mr. Kim

Mr. Jung just glare at Mr. Kim as he walks away, leaving the latter alone


At the clubroom, the newly united club has two different sides of tables. At Baek-ho’s side, they are doing their homework while the Royals are watching them out of amazement and boredom

“I’m so bored.” Pouts Ren, Sulli nods agreeing

Both of them stare at Sungjong waiting for her reply but she doesn’t reply them. Instead of replying her two friends, she stares at Baek-ho’s leader who’s so y and handsome while he was thinking on how to solve a certain math problem. She sighs dreamily and has a small idiotic smile on her face

“Eonnie!” calls Ren

“Mmm?” answers Sungjong still staring at a certain handsome figure

“What are you staring at?” she asks

“something very handsome.” Sungjong answers

Ren and Sulli follow her gaze and know that she’s staring at Myungsoo. Both of them decide to let Sungjong have her moment with Myungsoo

At the Baek-ho’s side, Myungsoo felt like someone is staring at him. He looks up and finds Sungjong staring at him. Myungsoo chuckles as he shook his head and yet he stares back smiling to her. Sungjong smiles back but her cheeks are now a bit pink

“Yah! focus on your homework.” Sungyeol scolds softly

Myungsoo ignores him as they continues to stare at each other until Ryeowook and Sungyeol decides to put it into a stop

“Ahem!” coughs Ryeowook which makes them stop staring at each other and look away to avoid the awkwardness

“staring at a handsome figure my ...” grumbles Sungjong as she glares at Myungsoo who only gives him a not-so innocent-Cheshire-cat smile

Out of curiosity, Sungyeol decides to ask him his curiousness of their relationship

“Did you and Sungjong have some kind of relationship or something?” asks Sungyeol

“Hmm I’m not sure about that. What do you think?” Myungsoo answers asking back

Sungyeol just gives him an annoyed face and sigh. Suddenly the door is open and their new teacher enters with a bright smile on her face

“Good afternoon everyone! I’m Kwon Yuri, your new cheerleading coach.” She said with a smile

“Okay, so who’s in Baek-ho?” Mrs. Kwon asks

The Baek-ho’s rise their hands to make her know that they are part of Baek-ho

“Oh so these are the royals the teachers have been talking about.” Mrs. Kwon said

“nice to meet you.” Said Sungjong with a small smile but got ignored by her

“So, let’s just get to the point okay? We must win the regionals in less than two months.” She said

“What?! How is that possible?!” Gasps Sungjong

“It is possible.” Mrs. Kwon answers her with a smirk “To start out cheerleading club, we will start with theories and later we will go the practical lessons.” She continues

“Neh~” all of them answer in pure laziness except for Ha Young who is smirking for the whole period (a/n: creepy @$$ girl)


After club period, the others are going out in full speed while Myungsoo and Sungyeol calmly walk away from the classroom

“Are you sure you want to join this weird cheerleading thing?” asks Sungyeol

“Of course, why not? besides it’s fun to watch Sungjong and Ha Young argue.” Myungsoo answers

“What?! Why so sudden, last time you were all awesome and explaining stuff about it and now you’re saying that you want to join this weird spec?!” gasps Sungyeol

“Well—uhm—I just owe her something.” Myungsoo answers in rush as they walk back to their class


Meanwhile, Ha Young receives her new report which has her newly bad and decreasing scores. She sighs in sadness

‘What am I going to do? Umma is going to be so angry at me.’ She thought

“Ujjeom geurido babo gateunji Subaek beoneul nunchil jwodo Nae mameul molla neon Nan hangsang ireonde Ujjeom geuri mollayo”

“Yobeuseyo?” she answers the call

“Young Lady Oh, how are your scores, you did it perfectly right?” asks tutor Lee

“I think I get good scores this time.” Answers Ha Young trying to sound proud

“Oh good then, we are waiting for you on the parking lot.” She said

“Okay tutor Lee, I will be there.” Answers Ha Young as they both hung up

Ha Young tears up as she puts her phone to her pocket. She looks at her paper with sadness

‘how am I supposed to make my mother proud now?! What am I supposed to do?’ she thought as she walks through the halls in sadness


Outside of the school’s building, she goes to the back of the wall and removes a stone. There she has a box of cigarettes. She was about to light it but she felt someone staring at her. she turns around and finds Lee Hoya staring innocently or more like creepily at her

“Hoya!” she gasps as she throw the cigarette away out of panic

“What are you doing here?” asks Hoya as Ha Young stands up

“Nothing.” She answers as she walks away but Hoya catches up trying to return the thrown cigarette to her

“What do you want?!” snaps Ha Young who stops and glares at him

“This is yours right? I want to return it to you.” Said Hoya, Ha Young slaps his hand away

“I don’t want it anymore! Now leave me alone!” she shouts

Hoya pouts but luckily his savior, Kim Myungsoo appears

“Oh Ha Young!” calls Myungsoo

“What?!” answers Ha Young

“Stop there.” He said as he picks up the cigarette and walks to Ha Young “I know this is yours.” He continues as he puts it on her bag

“Myungsoo? Oppa? What are you doing?” asks Sungjong who happens to passes by

“Nothing, nothing at all.” Answers Hoya as he ran away

“Well WE will make sure everyone in our newly united club will work hard, don’t we Oh Ha Young?” answers Myungsoo as he sneers to Ha Young

“Ye—yes.” She stutters out of fear and walks away which makes Myungsoo smirks

“What are you trying to do huh?” ask Sungjong as she approaches him

“hmm you will see.” Answers Myungsoo

“Don’t do anything reckless got that?! It will be troublesome, get it?!” warns Sungjong as she pokes his chest in every single word

“Yes ma’am.” Answers Myungsoo playfully, Sungjong scoffs as they return to class together   


During class, Mr. Jung enters the class and puts his books on the table

“Bow Down!” said Myungsoo

“Good afternoon, Mr. Jung!” all of them greet him in unison

“Good afternoon.” Answers Mr. Jung as he starts to teach them

Suddenly, Myungsoo told him that his wallet is missing

“Saem!” he calls as Mr. Jung turns around

“yes Myungsoo?” answers Mr. Jung

“My wallet is missing. I think someone took it. I can’t’ find it anywhere.” Answers Myungsoo

“Why would you even need your wallet now?!” argues Mr. Jung

“My student ID is there.” Pouts Myungsoo

“*sigh* fine everyone, put your bags on the table.” Said Mr. Jung

All of the students glare at Myungsoo as they put their bags on top of their table

“Yah! what was that for?! What plan is in your brain?” asks Sungyeol

“Ha Young brings cigarettes. If she got caught, she will get around 30-ish punishment points.” Answers Myungsoo with a smirk

“You’re weird.” Said Sungyeol as he gives his bag to be checked by Mr. Jung

“Are these the medicines from yesterday?” he asks, Sungyeol nods with a grin

“Get well soon okay?” said Mr. Jung, Sungyeol nods as Mr. Jung continues to check the bags.

As Mr. Jung reached Ha Young, Sungjong stops him

“Saem! I think he found his wallet now!” exclaims Sungjong

“o—oh.. uhm… yeah! It’s right here, geez Sungyeol you..” he said with a grin

“SUNGYEOL!!” all of them shouted at Sungyeol as Myungsoo looks at her with unimpressed look


Outside of class Sungjong decide to talk to Myungsoo

“Why did you do that?! It was so close.” Pouts Myungsoo

“Well let me ask you back! Why did you do that?! That’s just mean!” answers Sungjong

“Come on! It was so close!” whines Myungsoo

“Listen to me! Even though we both hate Ha Young we should not do something as mean as this!” shouts Sungjong

Unknown by them, Ha Young hears this and goes there giving a big and hard slap on Sungjong’s cheek

“What was that for?!” asks Sungjong  

“I don’t need your pity! What if they did found out about me bringing cigarette to school huh?! I can just kick him out of school and fire Mr. Jung!” shouts Ha Young

“Hey! She’s not involved in this! It was my idea! Stop harassing her!” scolds Myungsoo

“Heol! Congratulations on getting everyone on your side then.” Said Ha Young as she walks away, Myungsoo sigh as he shook his head

“Are you okay? Does it still hurt?” asks Myungsoo, Sungjong sigh

“I’m fine, let’s go.” Said Sungjong as they walk back to class

Meanwhile, Ha Young walks back to the back of the school and look at her cigarette. This place makes her remember the past. When she and Sungjong are still friends.  


-Flashback-

Two years ago….

“Yah! that’s not good for your health. Here eat some gum.” Said Sungjong as she throws the cigarette away and puts a pack of gum into her hand

“What’s wrong? Did your grades drop again?” asks Sungjong, Ha Young shook her head

“My best friend died because of a suicide.” Answers Ha Young

“What?!” gasps Sungjong

“She was in the news and stuff. She’s always first ranked in school. Mother told me to always be number one but I’m number two. She told me that a second ranked person will never be notice by people.” She said “Not to mention that Myungsoo stole my place as the first rank.” She pouts

“Yah! stop being so down. Even though you’re second rank you’re perfect the way you are. Just look at me! I’m ranked 198 and yet I’m still proud of myself.” Said Sungjong

“You’re just overconfident Lee Sungjong.” She jokes

“And you’re just insecure! Stop being insecure okay? You’re perfect the way you are, Ha Younggie.” Said Sungjong, Ha Young nods as they hug each other.

-end of flashback-

Ha Young looks at the box of cigarette in her hand and throws it away and walks away.


The next day, Mrs. Kwon decides that they have to practice at the gym. She make them do so many stretching that they are so tired now

“Preet!!” she blows on the whistle telling them that it’s time to stop. Everyone stops and walks out from the gym feeling tired

“Gosh this is so tiring.” JR said to Myungsoo who just shrugs and deal with his clingy dongsaeng

“Hyung! are you okay?” asks Myungsoo as Sungyeol walks slowly yet tiredly out of the gym

“I’m fine.” Answers Sungyeol

“Want to get something to eat, my treat.” Said Myungsoo with a smirk

“Count me in!” exclaims Sungyeol as they ran to the cafeteria

The royals did the same as they talk about how tired they are, especially Ren who’s too tired to walk and ends up with Minho carrying her

“Hey guys, what do you want to eat?” asks Sungjong

“Hotdog for me unnie!” exclaims Sulli

“Hamburgers~” said Ryeowook

“How about drinks? Gimme some water.” Whines Ren as they all laugh as they walk

Unfortunately, Sungjong kicks Ha Young’s leg accidentally as she walks.

“What are you doing?!” scolds Ha Young

“I’m sorry, it’s just an accident.” Said Sungjong

“Let me ask you something, why did you even stop Myungsoo back at class?” she asks

“Just because.” Answers Sungjong

“Listen,  I know those cigarettes are bad memories to you , okay? I know that, so stop talking about it.” She said

“Are you pitying me by chance?!” asks Ha Young

“I know we’re from different worlds, even worse. You’re from a higher class and rank than I am so that’s why I pity you. How could someone with such a high class and ranked person would be such a mean and ruthless monster?!” Answers Sungjong

“Well I think it’s better for you not to deal with anyone’s business. By that no one will get angry nor conflicts will happen.” Ha Young said

“That’s what you think. But what if I did ignore you when you’re about to be exposed by the school huh?! You think I want that?! I don’t! you are my roommate and well club mate.” Argues Sungjong

“I’m only your roommate, but never your club mate or even more. You are nothing but only a useless roommate.” Said Ha Young

“Besides, no one would hurt me, but I can hurt you where it really hurts.” She said pushing Sungjong’s shoulder slightly

Sungjong looks at her confusedly as Ha Young walks away and purposely nudge her shoulder to Sungjong

“Sungjong-ah! Let’s go, my game is starting soon~” said Hoya, Sungjong nods as they go to their gym

Myungsoo notices Ha Young’s plan and frowns

‘this is not good. What if she hurts Sungjong and Hoya even worse. I have to do something.’ He thought as he follows them to the gym (a/n: there are two gyms here)


During the game, Sungjong excitedly cheers for her brother along with his fan girls

“Go for it Hoya Oppa!! Do your best!!” shouts Sungjong as Hoya dribbles the ball

“Lee Hoya!! Lee Hoya!!!” the girls chant to cheer on him

“Go for it Oppa!! Woo! You can make it!!” shouts Sungjong, the fan girls gives her a judging look and one of them ask her what is her relation with Hoya

“Mm? my relation? He’s my fraternal twin.” Answers Sungjong

Suddenly, one of his rivals is too harsh on him. They push him and such to get the ball. The opponent team member pushes him until he falls down

“Oppa!!” shouts Sungjong as she ran down finding her brother unconscious

“No, no, no! this is not happening.” She said worriedly “Oppa, please wake up.” she said

Hoya opens his eyes and sits up

“I’m fine, I’m fine.” He said as Sungjong helps him stand up

“Let’s go to infirmary.” She said, Hoya just nod as they go to the infirmary together


At the same time, Myungsoo confronts Ha Young about her plan

“You did it, didn’t you?” asks Myungsoo

“Did what? What are you talking about?! Gosh Kim Myungsoo, be more specific! I’m not a mind reader like you!” she shouts

“Obviously hurting Hoya.” Answers Myungsoo

“well she started it.” Argues Ha Young

“Wrong! You did. You make all this trouble all by yourself. You took our photo on the first place, not to mention you’re being mean to her. how many times should I tell you it was all my plan. All those things and about the cigarette thing.” Said Myungsoo

“But—“

“No more buts. Stop messing with her. if you want to hurt someone then the person is not her. it should be me because as I say, it was all me. It’s all my idea and plan.” Said Myungsoo


At the infirmary, Hoya sits down and receives sweet tea from the nurse because he was a bit dizzy.

“Oppa, why did you have to force yourself?! I told you to just go to the corner!” scolds Sungjong

“I don’t know, it’s just that I’m the leader of the basketball team, not to mention that you are there to watch me. How can I stop playing?” answers Hoya

Sungjong tears up as she hits him on his shoulder

“How can you even say you’re okay?! You fainted not to mention they are way too harsh on you!” she sobs

“Yah, yah! why are you crying?! Sungjong-ah, don’t cry.” He said “See? I’m fine, nothing hurts.” He continues

“But it’s because of me. I’m the cause of all this. It’s because of me. Mianhe Oppa.” She sobs

“No, don’t’ say that! Who told you it was your fault?” asks Hoya, Sungjong continues to cry as Hoya wipes her tears away

“Stop crying eo? I told I was fine right? Trust Oppa okay?” asks Hoya

Sungjong only nods as they go back to class. On the way they meet Ha Young who walks past them not saying a word. Sungjong is definitely ticked off and grabs Hoya’s ball

“Yah Oh Ha Young!!” she calls out

Ha Young turns around annoyed and earns a big ball on her face. Yes, Sungjong throws the ball into her face

“if you hate me so much, let’s do it face to face.” She said

“You’ve started it.” Answers Ha Young

“And as I remember I’ve warned you. Don’t mess with me because I can attack you where it hurts the most which is him. He’s your weakness.” Said Ha Young

“You’re even worse than a human! I don’t think you ‘re a human anymore! You’re a vicious monster!” she shouts

Ha Young opens offended and tries to slap Sungjong but Sungjong blocks her hand

“I don’t need your slapping anymore. I get it, you hated me. So STOP using people to hurt me! If you want to hurt me  just do it face to face.” Said Sungjong and slaps Ha Young instead

“Pay back for the last slap.” She adds as she walks away with Hoya

“Are you okay?” asks Hoya

“I’m fine.” Answers Sungjong


The next day during cheerleading practice, Naeun accidentally sprain her wrist

“Ouch!!” she shouts in pain as she holds her painful wrist

“Are you okay Naeun-ah?” asks Ha Young

“Naeun noona, are you okay?” asks JR

“Naeun-ah, Gwenchana?” asks Nam Joo

Naeun shook her head with a pout

“It hurts.” She whimpers

Mrs. Kwon notices this and approaches her and asks about her condition but Naeun scoffs

“We can’t do this anymore, we’re not in a good condition to do these harsh practices.” Said JR

“That’s right, I’m sorry.” Said Ha Young

“If so, get out.” Said Mrs. Kwon

“Excuse me?!” asks Ha Young

“You can’t do it anymore right? That means you’re a burden for the whole team. It’s better if you don’t participate.” Said Mrs. Kwon

“Fine.” She grumbles as she, JR, Nam Joo and Naeun get out

“Call your mother Ha Young noona, tell her everything.” Said JR

“Yeah, I agree with JR.” said Naeun

Ha Young nods as she calls her mother. Because Ha Young calls her mother, not only her mother comes to school to scold Mrs. Kwon. But all of the mothers of Baek-ho come to school to scold Mrs. Kwon. The mothers scold Mrs. Kwon at how bad she was teaching the student even telling her that she’s being too harsh towards their children.

“You are fired!” exclaims Mrs. Son as she hugs her injured daughter who is currently whimpering because her wrist is injured

“Fired?!” asks Mrs. Kwon “No need! I will quit myself!” she shouts as she collects her things and get out

The royals, Myungsoo and Sungyeol watches in confusion until Mr. Jung gets into the room full of panic

“Principal Choi! There is an education officer  who wants to see you. He said it was regarding a report about fake project.” Said Mr. Jung

Hearing this it makes Myungsoo’s lips form into a wide smirk earning a confused look from Sungjong and Sungyeol

“What’s going on?” asks Sungjong

“You will see~” answers Myungsoo

‘Get ready Oh Ha Young, you’re going to be exposed sooner or later.’ He thought as he watches the teachers and the mother panicking while Ha Young is looking at her mother in worried
