Seungkwan POV

I was born into this world believing that fairytales are true. My Mother read to me about Prince Charming and Snow White before I even learn to walk. I hear about how he only had to see her asleep in the crystal casket to fall in love with her forever. I learn about Aurora and Prince Phillip, Belle and the Beast. The enchanting, magical world of fairytales that makes me believe that happily ever after, did exist. Will I meet a real Prince, Princess, Fairy Godmother, in the 21st century? . . . At the market place near the apartment building, I'm renting. "Good morning Seungkwan ah! Heading to your school now?" "Good morning Ajumma! Yes, I am!" I said cheerfully to the fruit vendor lady who is always giving me fresh tangerines every morning. "Here's a freshly picked tangerine for our always energetic Seungkwan ah," she smiled softly, giving me the tangerine. "Ah~ Thank you very much," I smiled back to her, bowing my head. "Oh Seungkwan ah, good morning!" The fish vendor Ahjussi greeted me. "Good morning to you Ahjussi!" I grinned at him. "You're cheerful as ever Seungkwan ah, take care on your way to school, okay?" The Ahjussi who owned the ramen shop where I always eat my dinner smiled. "I will Mister Hyun, thank you!" After greeting everyone which ended up to be my daily routine every morning, I continue walking to our school. I've been friends with the people at the market place since I moved in here in Seoul. They treat me well, and also giving me food when I'm broke. They're really nice people. At Crown Academy, A bunch of girls fangirling over a certain person near the school gate. I looked at my wristwatch, 15 minutes before our morning class starts. "I need to hurry up," But then, "Seungkwannie!" "Eek Vernon!?" It turns out the certain guy is Chew Hansol!!! The girls surrounding him immediately glared at me. "Okay, this is not good." I sighed in defeat. Vernon happily walked towards me, I swallowed hard ... He is so handsome. "V-Vernon, w-w-what are you doing here?" I asked nervously while dodging all the deadly glares sending to me by his fangirls. "I'm waiting for you Seungkwannie!" He grinned. "R-really ..." *More deadly glares coming* I laughed at him awkwardly, ""L-let's go?" I said, we need to hurry up, and get out of here before these girls decided to murder me. "Okay!" Chwe Hansol, Crown Academy Fourth Prince. He's handsome, cool, and popular. A lot of students saying that he looks exactly like Leonardo DiCaprio, that makes him more popular with the students. But ... I really don't know why he's really fond of me. Honestly speaking, this Prince always follow me where ever I go. He makes sure I eat well, he talks to me a lot more than anyone else. And almost every day, EVERY DAY HE ALWAYS SAYS HE LIKES ME! *Sigh* This is why Dino is always teasing me that Vernon really loves me. I pursed my lips, Vernon ... Is in love with me? The Prince fell in love with an ugly normal citizen in the kingdom. Is that even consider a story in a fairytale? Well, who knows ... I never read one. But then, deep inside me, I really hope that ... Vernon really loves me. *Flashback* Opening Ceremony in Crown Academy, "Look at him, God he's so damn hot and handsome!" The girl in front of me squealed. ""He looks like a Hollywood actor." "Leonardo DiCaprio?" "Oh God yes! He is, he is!" Leonardo ... DiCaprio? Jack Dawson of Titanic? I curiously averted my eyes to the guy these girls talking about and ... In my surprise, I stumbled, and almost fell to the floor. "Seungkwan, are you okay?" Dino asked beside me. "Y-yes ..." I stuttered. Badump. Badump. Badump. Badump. E-eh? M-m-my heart ... Wait, w-why is my heart acting like this? I once again stole a glimpse to the Leonardo DiCaprio look-alike guy. "He's really handsome ... Like a Prince!" A Prince from a fairytale book. I stayed like that, staring at him dreamily. But then, he suddenly looked back, and our eyes met. Badump. Badump. Badump. Badump. My face heated up, He smiles at me and I ... Sorry, I didn't know what happened next because I passed out. "SEUNGKWAN AH!" *End of Flashback* Since the first time I laid my eyes on him in the opening ceremony, I know ... My heart belongs to him. I secretly watched him from afar, Vernon is ... Always perfect, so high, out of reach to a normal person like me. "Seungkwannie, I bought some tangerines for you," he suddenly said, giving me a bright smile. "Eh? W-why?" "What do you mean why? I thought you loved tangerines because I'm always seeing you eating one every morning." I blushed, so Vernon ... He's also secretly watching me from afar? Okay, no ... WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING BOO SEUNGKWAN!!!? "I-I-I ..." "Seungkwan ah ..." "Y-yes?" "You're really beautiful," "Wh--" He suddenly pulled me, and closed the gap between our lips. My eyes widened when a pair of plump lips gently pressed onto mine. Lips? Kiss? WHAT?! When Vernon pulled back, I ... "Seungkwannie?" Passed out again. "SEUNGKWANNIE!" . . . I was born in an average family in Jeju. I have two older sisters, my Father and my ever supportive Mother. She taught me, to follow my dreams and make it happen. This is why I decided to study in Seoul. Luckily, I passed the entrance examination in one of the famous schools here, the Crown Academy. Just like Jeonghannie hyung, I'm one of the scholars in our school. I also do part-time jobs just like him to support myself, and my school expenses. But, the big difference between me and Jeonghannie hyung is that ... He's extremely popular, a lot of students adored him, falling in love with his beautiful angelic face. Now I know, when you have a beautiful face, a lot of people will notice you, adore you, and even worship your beauty. Aaaah~ Sometimes, I feel like ... Beautiful people always get special treatment. Especially in our school, where the treatment is based on how you look. People will bully you when you're ugly, they looked down on you, and the worst part is ... They even treat you like garbage. *Bitter smile* I wish, I was born with a beautiful face, so that I can experience special treatment, just like others. *Flashback* The first day of high school, after the opening ceremony. I'm really excited! It's my first day in Crown Academy! Right now in our classroom, we were introducing ourselves one by one. Okay Seungkwan ah, you need to give your classmates a good impression so, you can easily be friends with them. I nodded to myself, "Next ..." Our teacher looked at me. I immediately stood up, wear my best smile, and greeted everyone. "Hello everyone, my name is Boo Seungkwan, nice to meet you all!" I bowed my head. *Silence* I heard my classmates started murmuring, and others started laughing. "His surname is Boo?" "Boo Seungkwan, lol! That's one of the funniest surnames I've ever heard!" "He's a looser, I bet." "Lol! Who cares, it suits him, he looks funny!" I bit my bottom lip, I almost forgot, everyone makes fun of me because of my surname. But, I really love my surname ... It's ... "Cute ..." A voice suddenly said. My eyes rounded, and I immediately looked back to where the voice came from. "Your surname is really cute, and unique, I like it." I gasped, THE LEONARDO DICAPRIO IN THE OPENING CEREMONY EARLIER!!! My face turned crimson when I heard what he said. "T-t-thank you," I murmured. "No problem," he gave me a bright smile. Oh God! What did I do to deserve this smile from a very handsome, perfect, dreamy guy like him? I smiled to myself, This is the first time, someone actually compliments my surname. I'm really happy ... He is a good guy, Now, I'm really ... Falling for him. *End of Flashback* I woke up and realized I was in the school clinic, lying on the bed. "Ack! My head hurt," I groaned in pain while rubbing my head. But then, My eyes dropped to the sleeping Prince beside me. "Vernon?" I gasped. Eh? Why? Wait, what happened? Finally remembered the kiss earlier. My face flushed quickly, WHAT THE HELL!? DID V-V-VERNON REALLY KISS ME? FOR REAL? I slapped my face, left and right. "Ouch! Okay, why did I even slapped my face?" "Seung ... kwan?" Vernon suddenly woke up. He rubbed his sleepy eyes gently. *Jolted* "V-V-Vernon ..." I stuttered. "What are you doing? Why are y---" "NOTHING! I-I'm just ... Uhmm ..." He only gave me a tender smile. "Are you feeling well now?" "Eh?" I blushed more, "Y-yes ..." I nodded bowing my head. "I'm glad to hear that," he caressed my hair fondly. Badump. Badump. Badump. Wuhuhu please Venon ah! My heart won't stop beating faster inside my chest, why do you have to do this? "Seungkwan ah!" Dino like a bullet suddenly opened the sliding door wide, and entered inside. His wide eyes looked at me, then to Vernon. "Ah! Did I ruined a romantic scene just now?" He smirked. "DINO YA!" I pouted, looking at his teasing smile. He laughed, "Fine, fine! I won't tell anyone about your relationship. And I think you're very much okay now, Seungkwan ah. So, hurry up! We still have classes to attend." "What are you saying you kid!" I growled. Seriously, Dino loves to tease me so much. "Well then, I should be thank you for keeping our relationship a low profile," Vernon grinned. "Of course!" "Vernon ah ... What are you saying?" I cried. . . . "Volleyball?" Seokmin lifts a brow. Him, Vernon, Dino, and I were currently having our lunch at the cafeteria. I nodded at him with enthusiasm. "Recently, I've been watching our volleyball team playing. And I'm really fascinated by how they're good at playing volleyball. I always wanted to try this sport, sooo I decided to pass my application form later." "Oh! So, our Seungkwannie loves volleyball, that's cool!" Vernon beamed in amusement. "You think so?" "Yup, everything Seungkwannie does is cool," he grinned. "Eh?" I looked at him in surprise. "Hmmm … I think I'll always visit the volleyball gym now," he suddenly said. "W-why?" I asked in confusion. "Because you're there," Vernon simply answered. "A-uhmm ..." HOW CAN I EVEN REACT TO THAT?! Dino and Seokmin looked at each other and started laughing. "Oh my! Your face is really red Seungkwan ah!" Seokmin laughed out loud. "You're too obvious Seungkwan ah!" Dino laughed his off. "S-S-SHUT UP YOU TWO!" I shouted out of embarrassment. . . . "Do you even know how to play?" The volleyball team captain asked while looking at my application form. "No, but I'll try my best to learn!" I said, full of hopes and courage. "I-I see, well," she paused. I really want to play volleyball now, I'm really excited! Suddenly, a girl wearing the team uniform whispered something to the captain. The captain face suddenly darkened as she nodded. "So, you're Boo Seungkwan, the leech and loser who's always sticking to our Fourth Prince." "Eh? Pardon?" In a few seconds, the team surrounded me. I was taken aback, Then, the captain grabbed my arm, and gripped it tightly. I winced, it's hurt, "P-please let go," I pleaded. But she gripped my arm tighter. I bit my lip, stopping myself from shouting out in pain. "You're looking yourself so high and mighty, right? Wae? Do you think because of Vernon always with you, you will gain popularity too? Or *chuckle* do you think he will fall in love with an ugly, loser like you? Oh come on Boo Seungkwan! You're really disgusting ... Stop flirting with our Prince, just die already!" My eyes widened in fear as I swallowed hard. Why, why is everyone hated me so much? I'm still biting my bottom lip really hard, really hard that I've tasted blood coming out from my own lips. I was fighting back my tears, no ... Don't cry Seungkwan ah, please don't cry. They just going to bully you more if you cry ... Don't ... C--- "WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HIM!?" A voice shouted out, echoing inside the volleyball gym. The team eyes rounded, the captain immediately let go of my arm. "V-V-Vernon," I heard the captain said in fear. Vernon angrily walked towards us, he pulled my hand and ... "I-i-it's not what you think V-Vernon ah!" The captain tried to explain. "So, this is what you do to your new member?" He asked, you can see how pissed he was. This is the first time, I saw Vernon getting angry like this. "Vernon ... It's okay, I'm okay," I said, trying to calm him down. He looked at me worriedly, then glared at the volleyball team. "No one has the rights, to lay a finger to my Seungkwannie!" He shouted out again, gripping my hand tight. My face flushed from what he said. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING VERNON!? I cried. The team is now looking at me angrily, huhuhuhu! "Let's go, Seungkwan ah," he said, pulling me out of the gym. But before we could reach the exit, "Do you like that Boo Seungkwan that much, Vernon?!" The captain yelled, clenching her both fists. Vernon turned his head and looked at her with his bored eyes. "Yes, do you have problem with that?" He replied dryly. They all gasped and the captain bit her lip angrily, she wanted to cry. And me? Well, I almost lost my soul after hearing that. Did Vernon ... Really likes me? Impossible. Impossible. Impossible!!! End of Seungkwan POV Vernon POV Chiring! Chiring! I annoying turned off my alarm clock. "It's morning already?" I growled. I forced myself to get off my bed, I still have class today. I took a quick shower, wearing my uniform, and went to the kitchen to cook my breakfast. It's been four months now since I started living alone in this condo unit my parents bought for me. This condo is too big for one person, I wish someone could accompany me here. Someone who's always cheerful and high spirited. Someone who's always making me laugh, and taking care of me .... Someone like ... Boo Seungkwan. I really like him ... No, I love him. Everything about him makes my heart flutter, he's really cute, and always smiling. I hope he knew ... How blessed I am, to stay by his side, and to adore his beautiful face. "Oh! It's already time, I need to hurry up." 7:13 am I have the habit of waiting for Seungkwan at the school gate, near the fountain, or at the café near our school every morning. I don't know yet where he lives so I'm always waiting for him so we could walk together going to our classroom. Right now, I was in front of the café, A few minutes later, I finally spotted him. I immediately found myself smiling while looking at him. While watching him walking to the other side of the road, Seungkwan saw an old lady carrying a paper bag of groceries. Without hesitation, he helped the old lady, and carried the paper bag for her. He also helped her to cross the road, and waited for her to get a taxi. I chuckled, Now tell me, how to unlike this person? Because for me, he's really amazing. Seungkwannie is really kind, a good son to his parents, and a good brother to his sisters. I still remember the time when he told me that he wants to finish his study at Crown Academy, go to a good university, and get a professional job to give his mother an extravagant birthday party. I can't help but smile, his dream is too simple and innocent at the same time. He's working hard, study hard to give his Mom an extravagant birthday party. Such a sweet son he is, his Mom was probably really proud of him. But sadly, Seungkwannie never see how amazing person he is. He's always looking at himself very low, I wish I could show him that I'm really lucky to meet a person like him. "Seungkwannie!" I called when the old lady finally entered the taxi. "Oh Vernon ah, good morning!" He smiled and happily walked towards me. "Good morning Seungkwan ah!" I grinned. *Stomach growl* I looked at him, "Your ... Hungry?" I asked. "Huh? Eh? A-n-no ... I-I'm not," he immediately denied with a blushing face. I chuckled, he's always cute. "Come, let's order something inside." "H-here? N-no ... I ..." "Breakfast is important, you shouldn't skip your meal." "B-but ... The food in this café is too expensive," he muttered. "Huh?" I frowned in confusion. "I can't even afford even a cup of coffee here!" He blurted out. "Oh ..." I found myself laughing, "Don't worry, it's my treat, come on!" I said, pulling his hand as we entered the café. . . . "My Seungkwannie is really cute~" I smiled to myself while looking at my cellphone gallery full of Seungkwannie's stolen shots. Other pictures were blurred, but who cares, it Seungkwannie so I'm still saving them. "Oh! That's too many," Coups hyung suddenly commented. "Hyung!" I called, grinning at him. "You really like Seungkwan ah, aren't you Vernon?" "Yes, I am!" I replied without hesitation. "Have you confessed your feelings for him?" "Uhmm ... Well, I'm always telling him that I liked him ... But, he's not taking it seriously." "What do you mean?" "He always thinks I'm just joking." "Oh ... I see ..." "Hyung, what do I have to do to make him believe that I really like him?" "Uhmmm ... Let's see." End of Vernon POV Seungkwan POV "I heard about what happened to the volleyball gym yesterday," Dino suddenly said. My face immediately turned pink as I tried to ignore him. "Why don't you just admit it that you also like Vernon? Oh come on Seungkwan ah! He said it many times to you that he likes you." "We still don't know if he likes me as a friend or someone special right? I-I ... I just don't want to assume that the Fourth Prince was really in love with an ugly, looser like me." "What the hell Seungkwan ah, who the told you that you'r
