Amber's POV

 

 

The Garden

 

 

 

“ What was that unnie ? “

Luna asked while looking at that Diva freak who's still not done teasing me.

“ Why did I even do that ? “

I hit my forehead with the book that I've been holding onto.

“ Yah ! Stop hurting yourself. “ Luna snatched the book from me.

“ What do you call this Amber ? Are you trying to act cute to me ? Haha ! “

 

Key was non-stop showed that picture of mine on his phone to me and the rest. I know that I shouldn't take that kind of picture.

Why did I still do that ?

 

“ Aww .. I didn't know that you can be so cute Amber ? “

Minho oppa joined to mocked me too.

“ Can you show me your blowfish face ? Just like what you did in that picture ? “

Taemin eyes were sparkling while uttered those to me.

“ No way ! “

“ She even give a winked to Key oppa .. haha “

“ Yah ! Jung Soojung ! “

I pinched her hand just to make her stops mocking me.

“ Owh ! I should show this to the whole school. “

“ Don't you ever do that ! I'm warning you ! “

I glared at Key who's still smiling like an idiot.

“ Can you just delete that ? “

“ Huh ! Like that will happen. I was having fun looking at your irritated face. “

Why did I even asked that when I know the answer already.

“ Let me see it again. “

Sulli snatched the phone from Key's hand and looked at it while laughing.

“ Just kill me. “ I said in frustration to Key.

“ My pleasure. Anyone had a gun ? “

He asked while the rest just keep on laughing.

“ Aaah .. I know, This will kill you for sure. “

I looked at him with curiosity.

While doing a peace sign, he then puffed his cheeks and give a winked at me. 

“ YAH !! “

I was so annoyed seeing him mocking at me like that.

“ I told you .. haha .. It kills you .. haha “

I feels like my soul are getting out from my body as I walked into my class.

 

“ There's a zombie in our class. “

Zico said as he pointed at me.

“ That zombie looks like Amber right ? “ Dongjun were chuckling at me.

“ No way .. that zombie is heading towards us. Should we run away ? “

Myungsoo added while my classmates just laughed at it.

I quickly walked towards them and gave each of them a smacked.

“ Hey, I just been smacked by a zombie. “

Myungsoo said with a chuckled while I just ignored it, took my seat and buried my face in my palms.

“ What's wrong Amber ? “ Myungsoo asked.

“ KEY !!! “

I shouted furiously which made the class to be in silence, maybe they were shocked with my sudden high pitched voice but then

the atmosphere become like what it used to and I know all of them already used with I'm being annoyed at Key.

“ Not again ! “ Zico uttered with a chuckled.

“ I feel like .. “

I looked at the window.

“ Jump out of the building ! “

All three of them had this shocked face but then they continued with a laugh.

“ You can't be serious right ? “

“ He embarrassed me badly this time. “

Well not as bad as what I faced a year ago, in our first .. no second meeting but it still bad.

“ My cool image are ruined by that Diva. “

“ You guys are so funny. “

These useless kids. They're not even helping me.

 

 

________

 

 

 

After school

 

 

 

“ Amber ! “

I looked at my back to find Key were running towards me.

“ What now ? “

“ Nothing .. just .. this .. “

There he go again, making those face just to annoyed me and my hand were just fast enough to give him a smacked.

“ Hey ! “

“ Dare to do another one and you will get one more smack from me. “

I gave him a death glare and he back away right on that time.

“ You're no fun. “

He rolled his eyes while I'm still glaring at him.

“ Key oppa .. Amber unnie are not in the mood because of you. “

Luna backs me up and that's why I loved her so much .. hihi.

“ But, I don't mind if you keep on teasing her. She looks so cute when she's annoyed .. haha “

“ Hey ! “

Ok, I take it back. These girls cannot be trusted at all.

“ Look .. she's pouting right now. Taeminnie .. take out your phone now. “

“ I'm on it Ssul .. hihi. “

“ You guys are so mean ! “

I said didn't realized that I'm still pouting which give a chance for Taemin to snapped my pic.

“ Lee Taemin ! “

“ Don't worry, I'll keep it safe with me. “

He winked at me which really made me even more annoyed.

 

These people were in this together and I can see how Key were having fun with all the support that he got.

 

“ Aigoo .. I cannot handle it anymore. Let's find something to cheer her up before she's pouting even more. “

Minho oppa said while wrapping his arms around me.

“ Not helping oppa. “

“ I'm serious .. hmm .. let's do something fun huh ? What you say ? “

“ Not a bad idea actually. But I don't want him to follow us. “

I pointed at Key with a smirked.

“ Like you can stop me ? “ He retorted proudly.

“ Lotte World anybody ? “

Minho oppa suggested which easily made my mood lighten.

“ Assa !! “ I gave a high five to him excitedly.

 

 

________

 

 

 

Lotte World, Seoul

 

 

 

 

 

 

While waiting for Onew oppa and Vic unnie to come,

“ I don't know why did you still bother to bring him along when your intention is to cheer me up ? “

I asked annoyingly at Minho oppa.

“ Obviously, I'm not happy with it. “

I said while glaring at Key who's non-stop do a merong at me.

“ Haha .. don't mind him and just have your fun. “

Minho oppa patted my head lightly before went to Krystal.

“ But my minds were full with his annoying attitude. “

“ Noona, right now .. Key hyung is invisible from your sight. “

Taemin snapped his finger right in front of my eyes.

“ Good Taem but your hypnotize technique won't work on me. “

I ruffled his hair with a chuckle, well at least he made an effort to made me laugh.

“ But it made you smile. “

He said proudly to me while Sulli just shows him a thumb up.

“ We're here .. let's have some fun guys. “

Both Onew oppa and Victoria unnie finally arrived and that's our cue to start exploring the theme park.

Wohoo !!

 

 

________

 

 

 

The first thing in my mind of course, “ To the Conquistador !!! “

 

I shrieked happily because I'm excited since I finally can have my payback to that Diva.

I love that ride and I know it very well that he hate those ride. Isn't that amazing ? Haha.

 

 

“ I'm not going. “

He protested while the rest just ignored him and followed me towards it.

“ Yah ! Don't just leave me here all alone. “ He shouted but we keep on going.

* Aaah .. I just love seeing him like that .. wahaha ! *

“ You can go to the Boong Boong Car if you want. “ I showed a merong to annoys him.

“ YAH ! I'M NOT A KID ! I'M GOING WITH YOU ! “

 

I just rolled my eyes and quickly headed towards the rear most seats since I am the thrill seekers.

I sat next to Minho oppa with Krystal and the girls in front of us. Onew oppa and Taemin also in the same row as me.

I noticed that the seat next to me are empty so I quickly pulled Key to sit next to me before he managed to sit with the girls.

 

“ Are you insane ? Why would I sit here ? “

 

He was about to get himself up when the staff,

“ Please secure your seat belt. Our staff will do a round to check for it once more. We will start when everybody is ready. “

“ What ? No .. I'm not .. upmhh !! “

I covered his mouth and made him to sit back to his place and just let the staff to secure the seat belt for him.

“ Let me go ! Aish .. Huh ? Oh no ! Hey .. I'm not .. “

Once again I cupped his mouth just to make him shut up.

“ Enjoy the ride everyone. “

I released my hand when the last staff walked out of the place.

“ This is gonna be so much fun ! “

 

I cheered happily while the rest just chuckled at me well except for one person, who's now shivering next to me with his eyes

glued at the front.

 

“ I'm dead ! I'm dead ! “

I smiled with satisfaction looking at him while he just give a glare at me.

“ You meanie !! Evil tomboy !! “

He yelled right on my face while I'm just giggling at him.

I know right. I'm so evil right now.. hehe.

“ I'm sure I will .. Huh ? “

He frozen when the engine started.

 

 

“ WOHOOOO !!! HAHA !! “

“ WAAH !! I'M GONNA DIE !! “

 

I was having fun while this guy next to me were suffering because of it. He keep on clinging on my hand, with his eyes stay

closed from the start until now. I really want to pushed him away from me but I'm still a kindhearted person. He looks so lifeless

at my side and that made me to feel pity towards him and just let him do what he want but at the end I cannot help but to

laughed him.

 

The ride are finally over but I can't stop from dragging the gang with me to some more thrills rides and I never fails to made

Key to joined it.

 

Our last thrilled ride is the French Revolution, yeah I'm talking about the breathtaking high-octane roller coaster ride guys.

Key was already looked pale at Onew oppa's side well most of the girls looks the same too.

 

“ I don't think I can handle another crazy ride with Amber unnie. “

Sulli said with her weak voice while the girls just nodded.

 

Victoria unnie already given up right before this last ride. I want to make Key joined this ride but suddenly I feel bad looking at

how awful his is right now. He were staring blankly at me. I waved my hands in front of him but he just stood there faintly.

 

“ Let's just go Amber. “

Minho oppa dragged me with him followed by Taemin and Onew oppa from behind.

 

 

“ That was awesome !!! “

I shouted in satisfaction.

“ Look at Onew hyung's face. “

Taemin pointed at his face from the picture.

“ Oppa .. that was so funny. “

“ Oh God ! I feel like my heart gonna stop beating in any time. “

He still catching his breath while we just laughed out at him until,

“ What's wrong with him ? “

Minho oppa asked while the three of us curious looking at Key who was laid weakly on Luna's lap.

“ He keep on throwing up after watch the roller coaster. “

Luna said while messaging his head.

Both Key and I happen to looked at each other after that and, “ I want to throw up. “

He just run away like that with the boys followed him from behind and leaved me dumbfounded.

“ Did he feel nauseated by just looking at my face ? “

I asked in shocked while the girls just shrugged their shoulder.

 

 

 

We waited at the cafeteria for about 15 minutes until the boys finally shows up.

“ Are you alright ? “

I heard Victoria unnie asked Key while he just nodded.

“ Are you really that sick ? “

I took the turn to asked since I really concerned about him right now.

 

I don't know, I just feels guilty towards him since I'm the one who made him faced all of those thrilled rides intentionally when

I already know he cannot handle any of it.

 

“ Don't act like you care for me right now. “

I was so shocked at his sudden yelled.

* Am I too mean ? *

I thought by myself with my body still frozen looking at him.

“ K-Key .. “

I heard Onew oppa's voice but I still can't take my eyes away from Key.

Key, right now, looking so furious at me.

“ Amber unnie .. “

Krystal nudged me that cause me to startled and quickly looked away.

I heard he heaved a big sighed and noticed he already took his seat not far from mine.

“ Awkward ! “ The maknae uttered while looking at me.

“ Let's eat ok ? “

Sulli suggested and quickly leaved the table with Taemin and Luna followed from behind.

“ Want anything Key ? I buy it for you. “

Minho oppa asked him while he just shook his head.

 

I bet he don't have any appetite right now well if I'm in his shoes, I also gonna feels that way.

 

“ Amber ? “

Minho asked me after that,

“ Something light will do. “

“ Sandwiches ? “

“ Yeah .. that's fine to me. “

 

Just like Key, I'm also started to loss my appetite not because I feel sick or something but because of the guilty that I had inside

me. I didn't even dare to look at him so I just keep my head hung low. For the first time I feels so scared of Key. These tensed

atmosphere really made me to feels suffocated right now.

 

* Just say it Amber .. say sorry to him. *

 

* But .. he's the one who agreed to joined me. *

 

* Stop being such a stubborn girl Amber. *

 

“ Unnie, your food. “

Once again Krystal startled me.

“ Owh .. thanks. “

 

After that, all of them start to chat like nothing happen leaving both Key and I in silence, and I mean it guys, like really a dead

silence. Not even a word coming out from my mouth and I don't even dare to make any noise either. I even put my glass gently

so it won't made any sounds, see, that's how scared I am with Key right now. I don't understand why, I mean, he's not even glare

at me, he's not even shouts at me but I still feels scared. I wish he just continue to be mad at me, nag at me than just keep quiet

over there.

 

 

 

 

I hate to say this but I really feels like crying looking at how cold he is towards me right now. I feels totally been neglected and

those feelings are really awful.

 

“ Let's go shopping ? “

Luna asked Key while I'm just looking at him from behind and finally he gave a nod to her.

“ I'm sure this will cheer you up oppa. Hehe .. let's go. “

 

Both Sulli and Luna dragged Key along with them while the rest just chuckled at the three of them who's skipping along their

way. Maybe they feels glad since the atmosphere become less tensed.

 

“ Now, what's wrong with my dongsaeng ? “

Onew oppa patted my back which made me startled.

Why does everyone made me startled today ?

“ Huh ? Nothing .. let's follow them. “ I faked smiled at him.

 

So shopping is not a bad idea to me since I realized that made Key to become alive again. I really mean it guys, he started to talk

again, nags and the most important thing is he's laughing right now with the gang. I keep on taking glances at him while

looking thoroughly the clothes.

 

I gathered my courage to approached him to test my luck, well you can say that way. I slowly walked towards him who's still

busy looking at the glasses.

 

* Yes ! I made it ! I'm standing right next to him. *

 

He seems like doesn't noticed that I'm already next to him. I keep on pretending like I'm interested with the glasses but the truth

is, you know the reason right ?

 

But then I felt he held my hand which made me stunned at a moment, so I turned to looked at him, who's still had his eyes on

the glasses.

 

“ Luna .. what do you think ... “

He stops when he happen to looked at me.

 

It was a dead silence once again but add on his frown face looking at me. Slowly, he released his grip on my hand and just

walked away but not before rolled his eyes at me with a ' I can't believe this ! ' looks. Once again he leaved me flustered.

 

* What was that for ? He's not planning on sulking all day right ? Why did he acted that way towards me ? *

 

I hate to admit it but I really felt hurts with his attitude.

 

 

________

 

 

 

“ Haunted House ? “

Taemin suggested to us once we wander where our next stop.

“ Not again. I had enough of extreme things today and it was all because of her. “

Key shot a glare to me which made me to feels more and more guilty.

“ Aww .. please .. please .. I really want to go there. “

I smiled at how cute Taemin right now, pleading at Key with that super duper cute puppy eyes of him.

“ Fine. This is the last time. “ Key finally gave in.

I mean, whoever will just by looking at Taemin's aegyo, everything will be possible with this kid. 

 

All of us headed towards the Ghost House and queue up behind some of the people who's already waiting for their turn.

 

 

We decided to go in pairs and Onew oppa with Victoria unnie already headed their way inside the Ghost House while

the rest of us still waiting outside for our turn. While waiting, I can see that Sulli with Taemin and of course Minstal were

together so leaving Luna, Key and I behind.

 

“ So, all three of us will go in together ? “

I asked Luna and I'm sure Key heard that too even though he's looking away.

“ You guys are next. “ The staff informed us.

 

My eyes still glued on Key who didn't bother at all looking at me, he just talks to Luna, well looks like Luna also already forget

about me standing behind her.

 

“ You're up. “

The staff give the cue to go inside but then I become shocked when Key suddenly dragged Luna with him and tell the staff,

“ We're together. “

“ Oppa .. what about Amber unnie ? “

Luna asked while looking at me but Key just ignored it and dragged her with him.

“ She's tough enough ! “

 

Yup, I heard that Key.

I can't believe this. I'm being left out by them ? And I didn't even say anything about it ?

 

“ Excuse me sir .. are you gonna go alone ? “

I looked at the staff weirdly.

* Sir ? Oh yeah .. I should be used to that already. *

I just lightly nodded to him and after about 3 minutes like that he finally let me in.

 

 

 

I really likes go into the Haunted House, I really likes extreme things, it's just I really hate doing all of these all alone by myself.

I really hate the feeling of nobody is around me to protect me. I feel really insecure like that. I'm also a girl, so I can't help but to

feels scared at it. For example right now,

 

“ KYAAA !! GET OFF ME !! “

 

Why is this vampire keep on appeared in front of me ? Just then another ghost appears followed by the rest that really started

to get me irritated and scared.

 

“ AAAH !! I HATE THIS PLACE !! “

I let out a frustration which abruptly stops my tracks.

 

I stood right in front a big mirror in a really dark place, I only can see my reflection through the illumination from those light at

the trees. While staring at my reflection,

 

“ WAHAHA “

 

“ KYAAHH !! “

 

That automatically made me to activated my reflex by kicking that mummy's leg. I watched him limping when move away

from me.

 

“ I'm sorry. “

I said hoping for that mummy to heard me.

 

I crouched down when I feel tired because everything that happen to me seems so wrong.

 

* It's no fun if nobody is with me. Who I'm going to lean onto when I need it ? *

 

I realized that my tears starts to pooled in my eyes, I get more frustrated when the tears starts to falls on my face.

 

* I hate this kind of situation ! *

 

The truth is, I cannot stop from thinking about Key since I stepped into this haunted house. I keep reminisce his cold face

whenever he looked at me.

 

* Why are you being so cold towards me today ? Am I that bad until you had to sulks all day long ? Is that made you feel

satisfied ? *

 

It's true that sometimes I cannot stand his annoyance but I rather face with his annoyance everyday than with his cold attitude.

It's really killing me. I keep on crying and doesn't know for how many long already, all I know is then someone handed me a

handkerchief,

 

“ Use this .. you poor kid. “

I gladly took that and stood up back when I want to return it back. 

“ Thank you. “

I bowed to that person before handed the handkerchief to him but just when my eyes saw the person, it was actually,

“ Fran .. Frankenstein ?? !!! Kyaa !! “

Quickly I dashed from that place and believe me or not that I was running until I reached the exit door.

“ I'm safe ! I'm safe ! “

 

When I open the door, I saw the gang already waiting for me nearby the haunted house but the only person that caught my

eyes is Key. I realized that he's the first one who noticed me, but he still had those cold glare towards me. My hands were

trembling because I was holding back my tears once again, I feel more and more hurt by just looking at him.

 

* That .. Mean Diva ! *

 

I want to look away but I can't until I noticed Victoria unnie approached me.

 

“ Amber, what took you so long ? “

She asked worriedly at me while I'm just looking at her with a fake smile.

“ Amber, are you .. crying ? Your eyes looks red. “

She asked while both of us walking towards the gang.

“ I'm not. “ I simply answered her.

“ What happen to you Amber ? We were waiting like quite long you know. “

Minho oppa looked at me worriedly when I just stay silence with my eyes still looking at Key's face who seems like doesn't even

care whether I'm there or not.

 

I was suffered inside, the more I held it the more the emotion keep on coming until at last I let my tears to falls which really

made the gang to freak out well I'm sure he's not.

 

“ Amber, omo .. you're crying ? Amber, what's wrong ? Tell me. “

 

Unnie were so worried and so do the rest and I really hate myself for made all of them in worried. I keep on shook my head to

tell them that I'm fine but those tears won't even want to stop falling which really made the gang to get worried badly.

 

“ Why are you crying ? “

Onew oppa caressed my hairs while Vic unnie hugged me to calm myself down.

“ Are you .. a .. scaredy-cat too ? “

Suddenly Key asked which made me to shocked.

“ So, you're not that tough anyway. I thought you loves thrilled things. “

I know he was having fun mocking me and I really feel angry at it.

It's not because of he called me a scaredy-cat or what but it because of his non-stop cold attitude towards me.

“ Key ! “

Onew oppa glared at him but he just ignored it.

 

Right now I feel so embarrassed with myself. I feel like a stupid girl to cry for a person like him. I had never cried in front of any

of them well the boys particularly but today I just can't help it and it was all because of that idiot Diva in front of me who just

hurts my feelings badly.

 

“ Unnie, don't be like this. You made me worried. “

Luna keep on questioning me.

 

* This is so embarrassing .. *

 

I pulled away from Vic unnie's hugged and just walked away from them. I just ran to where my feet brought me to.

I just don't care as long as I don't see that Diva again.
