As I woke up the next morning, I felt lazy. Luckily the school didn't have uniforms so I got to dress in whatever I wanted. I got a pair of shorts and a hoodie and went to get breakfast. As I went to the kitchen, I saw my sister siting there eating her sandwiches in peace. "Good morning Jules." I said to her and she grunted in response. As usual, her morning mood is bad and she still wants to sleep. I made my own breakfast and sat down by the table, just as Jules was done and went to her room. I sighed. I ate in peace, and hurried to school after I was done. As I arrived to the school, I saw Henry. I ran up to him and hugged him. "Hi Henry. How are you today?" I asked in a bright mood as his cheeks flushed red. "Fay. Good morning. I'm good. Why did you hug me?" He asked, flustered by the situation. "Can't I hug my friend? I do that all the time. I'll stop if you are bothered with it. Hugs never hurt anyone though." I told him with a smile as I looked around at his friends. I introduced myself in Korean as I didn't recognize anyone of them. "Fay. These are my hyungs. They are a year over us. This is Heechul-hyung and Leeteuk-hyung. The guy over there is HanGeng-hyung."  "So it's oppas for you guys then. HanGeng sound non-Korean though." I said to them in Korean, making Henry smile. "HanGeng-hyung is from China. You'll hear his funny accent when he speaks. But you are getting better. Even if you haven't been speaking for so long." "I did say give me a month but I think it might go faster than that. Especially since it is everywhere around me. It'll be fun learning Korean." I answered him and looked at HanGeng. "You're cute. You all are but you're cute." I said with a smile, making Heechul chuckle. "Thanks." HanGeng said with a faint blush on his cheeks. "Hyung, are you blushing?" Henry teased, making his cheeks become redder. "Cute!" I said as someone tapped me on my shoulder. "Hi Fay."  "Siwon. Hi." I said to him and hugged the handsome man. I saw my chance here and started tickling him. He started laughing and so did I. "One down. So many to go." I said to Henry who just smiled. "Fay. Heechul-hyung says he likes your guts. For him to say that is big, so thank him and you'll be on his good side forever." Henry said, so I obeyed. "Thanks oppa. Oppa, you are handsome by the way. I'll see you later." I said in so good Korean I could and walked to my classroom with Siwon and Henry. As I walked in, everyone stared at me. "Henry, have I done something?" I asked him and he shook his head. "We heard you play yesterday with the others." Siwon said to me and I smiled. "Was I that bad?" I asked him with a smirk and he chuckled. "No, you were great." He answered me as he ruffled my hair. I smiled as I went to my seat next to Amber. "Hi. Seems like you are the new talk of the school." Amber said to me and I chuckled. "And I wasn't before? I stand out here with how I look. If people talk about my music instead, I'm happy about that." I said to her as I saw Youngbae walk in and four guys following him to his seat. I looked at Amber who seemed to be in another world as those four other guys walked in. "So, who is your crush? The smily guy?" I whispered to her and her face became totally red. "So I guessed it right. Have you talked to him?" She just shook her head. I grabbed her hand and pulled her towards Youngbae and the others. Youngbae didn't see us but the others did. I put my finger in front of my mouth and hushed a little. They got what I meant as I sneaked up on Youngbae.  "Hi Youngbae. How are you today?" I asked him in Korean as I hugged him. He jumped a little, making his friends laugh at his reaction. He turned around to see me and Amber. "Fay. Hi. Why did you do that?" He asked me as his cheeks became a little pink. "Because it's fun. You seemed tense so I relieved your stress by making you feel something else." I said with a smile. "What's wrong?" I continued to ask him. "Just some schoolwork I didn't finish yesterday for a class this afternoon." He answered me honestly and I smiled. "I can help you if you want some and if I can." I offered and his face lit up. "Really? You would?" I just nodded and chuckled. "You didn't notice we did the whole conversation in Korean, did you?" I asked him and he looked at me, then he laughed. "Nope." He said smiling a cute smile. "Bae, who is she?" A pretty boy asked him and looked at me. "Ahh, Ji. This is Fay, the girl who helped out at yesterday's gig. Fay, this is Jiyong. He is a year above is, together with Seunghyun." Youngbae said and pointed at the tall and handsome guy that also looked at me. "I'm Daesung. I'm a year below you together with Seungri here. Nice to meet you, noona." The smily guy said and I smiled. He seems like a good guy, Amber has good taste. "You don't have to call me noona. Even if it's a sign of respect, I want us to be friends and where I'm from, that means first name bases. But I'll call you oppas and such, if you are older." I defended myself as they looked at me. Amber chuckled at me. "What? Did I do something wrong again?" I asked her but she just smiled. "No, you didn't. You're just a weird girl, Fay." Jiyong told me. "Of course. Being weird is more fun than being normal." I said as felt someone looking at me.  "Seunghyun-oppa, is something wrong?" Amber asked him and I looked at him. "Can you play for us sometime?" He asked, in a very low voice. "Sure, what do you want to see?" I asked him. "A rap song. On any instrument you play." He answered me and I smiled. "Hmm, what should I take?" I grinned towards Amber and she chuckled. "Oppa, you know she has a degree in classical music right? She play a bunch of instruments. I suggest a guitar or the piano." Amber said to him. "Really? That's cool Fay." Seungri said to me and I smiled. "Thanks. But shouldn't you go to your classes? We start soon." I said to them and they looked at the watch. "! Gotta go! Bye you guys." Jiyong said and they all ran out. "Bye Amber-noona." Daesung said before he flew out the door. I smiled at her and she blushed at his comment. "Talk to you later Youngbae." I said and pulled Amber with me, back to our seats as the teacher came in. After the classes, it was lunch time. Finally. I needed something to eat before my stomach made those whale-noises. Amber was in another class, but I saw Krystal, Siwon and Henry. I walked up to them to see if they wanted to eat together. "Hi Fay." Krystal said to me as she noticed me coming closer. "Hi Krystal. Are you guys going to eat?" I asked them all. Henry nodded and linked his arm in mine. "Let's go Fay. I'll introduce you to some more people." He said and pulled me with him. "Where did the embarrassed boy from this morning disappear?" I whined to him and he chuckled. "He is still here but I want to show you to the rest of my friends and hyungs." He said happily and pulled me towards the cafeteria with Siwon and Krystal in a tow, chuckling behind us. As we got in to the cafeteria, a loud sound hit my ears. Damn, these people are loud, I thought to myself. As I was lost in my thoughts, Henry pulled me to a large table, with a lot of people sitting around it. "Henry, you are late." I heard Amber say to him and I chuckled. "Hi Fay." I heard someone say and I saw Heechul sitting there, smirking. "Oppa!" I said, untangled myself from Henry and ran to him and hugged him. "What a nice surprise. Promise you'll hug me every time you see me." He ordered me with a smirk and I nodded. "Of course. Hugging you feels nice. I can't complain to a suggestion of free hugs." I said smirking back at him. "Yah! Hyung! Don't steal Fay to yourself." I heard someone say and was pulled into someone's arms. I looked up to see Hyukjae. "Hi mister rapper. What's up?" I asked him in English, making him flustered because he didn't really understand what I said. I chuckled at his reaction and so did Heechul. I repeated what I said and Korean and at that he blushed. "Try not to get close to him, Fay. He has a wicked mind." Hyukjae warned me and I smiled. "It's okay. Oppa is a nice person, I can see that. Don't worry." I said with a smile as I got out of his arms and walked to get some food. In the line, someone tapped me on my shoulder again and I turned to see HanGeng. "Hi Fay. What are you gonna eat?" He asked me. "HanGeng-oppa. Hi on you too. I don't know. Any suggestions?" I asked him. "Try the duck. It's really good." He said with a huge smile. "Aren't you the cutest, oppa? I'll try it. Your accent is cute too. How long have you been living here?" I asked him as the line continues to move. "For 5 years now." He said sounding a bit sad. "Oppa, it's alright to
