While Tiffany, Suzy and Eunjung rushed outside of the school, off to search Siwon, he himself was in a dark alley, pretty near from the school, but a place where people least expect to look.

Siwon already had wounds all over himself and his face was already bleeding. He couldn't do anything, well he would have if it wasn't for Tiffany. He just stayed silent as he continued to receive punches and kicks. A lot of guys were holding him down while the others did horrible stuff to him.

"What happened to your attitude when we first met you? one said as he punched Siwon again

Siwon promised himself, in behalf of his pride, that he would not make a sound in response to all the beatings hw was receiving. Oh how much he wanted to fight back but he couldn't. He swore to himself that he was going to get his revenge when the people from the International Education Committee leave. Then it will be safe.

"HEY! SAY SOMETHING!" another said as he grabbed Siwon's collar

Siwon just looked at him in the eye. Worse, he even raised an eyebrow. Siwon was a tough guy and his pride, to him, was very important. With Siwon's stare, the guy holding his collar felt even more irritated.

"YAH!! YOU PRETENDING TO BE FEARLESS?! DO YOU REALLY WANT ANOTHER PUNCH?!"

The guy holding him was about to punch him in the face, again. Siwon was ready for it. He was going to take everything, all for Tiffany. Suddenly, they all heard a very bad sound. All of them immediately covered their ears.

"What is that?!" one of them said covering his ears

"I don't know! It sounds like nails scratching a blackboard!!" another one said

The last one who spoke was right though. Well, sort of once they looked to where the awful sounds were coming from, they saw three girls and a guy. Suzy, Eunjung, Eunhyuk and Tiffany to be exact. Eunjung was holding a small mini-blackboard while Suzy and Tiffany were holding sharp objects such as pencils, rulers, sticks as they continued to scratch. Eunhyuk took this chance to start beating up the guys.

"What the?! Why are you three here?!" one of them said still covering his ears

"As I've thought, it's you three dummies who are behind this." Tiffany scolded. She tried to look for Siwon and she finally saw him. She couldn't hold her tears as she saw him.

"S.....S....Siwon......?" she said as tears fell from her eyes.

Siwon looked up and saw what he least expected to see. Tiffany. "Ti.....Tiffa-...."

But before Siwon was even able to continue what he was saying, Tiffany quickly gave him a big hug which startled him. "Oh Siwon Siwon!! I'm so happy!! Mianhe mianhe mianhe if you're hurt because of me! I'm sorry!! Really sorry!! Please forgive me!! Please Siwon please!!" 

Siwon was astonished with what Tiffany was doing. He saw the tears on her face and her face was getting red because of her continous crying. He just hugged her in response.

Tiffany just remembered! She took something out of her pocket and she brought out earplugs as she put them on Siwon quickly.

So that's why they aren't affected by the noise. He wondered why she was here. He looked around and saw Eunjung, Eunhyuk and Suzy. Did Eunhyuk tell Tiffany? He thought of it over and over again but he remembered Suzy and Eunjung in panick mode too at school when Eunhyuk shouted at the whole class that those guys were there. Eunjung and Suzy must have told Tiffany then.

Siwon could feel the tears on his jacket. He, of course, was sad that Tiffany was sad. She kept on crying as she hugged him tightly. Oh how Siwon missed their intereactions being like this. 

Meanwhile, the noise kept on going on and on, distracting the guys, as Eunhyuk kept on beating the guys up so the guys that beat up Siwon were going crazy. Eunhyuk, Tiffany, Suzy, Siwon and Eunjung, of course, were not affected because they were all wearing earplugs. 

"L-let's get out of here!" one of them said

"R-right!" the other said

It wasn't a while until all the guys that beat Siwon up left. Eunhyuk was smiling widely with his gummy smile while Suzy and Eunjung high-fived. Tiffany and Siwon were still in that position, hugging.

"Ahem." Eunhyuk teased

"Oh oh. Mianhe." Tiffany said as she broke the hug. She felt very embarrassed of course but at least she stopped crying which made Siwon smile.

"At least you're not crying anymore." Siwon said

"Neh....at least you're safe....b-but you have wounds all over you!! You're bleeding too!!" Tiffany said

"Tiffany-songsaengnim's right. We should get you to a hospital. NOW." Eunhyuk said

At the hospital.....

Siwon was getting treatment from the doctors in his room while Tiffany, Eunhyuk, Suzy and Eunjung were outside waiting for what was going to happen next. Tiffany couldn't help but feel really guilty. 

"It's alright Tiffany-songsaengnim." Eunhyuk said tapping Tiffany's shoulder

"N-neh songsaengnim! It's not your fault!!" Suzy said holding Tiffany's hands

"I'm sure that Siwon will be alright!! It's those stupid guys' fault!!" Eunjung said as she held Tiffany's hands along with Suzy

The doctor went out of the room along with the nurses.

"Doctor, anything bad....? Does he have.....any broken bones....?" Eunhyuk asked nervously

"Aniyo aniyo. It's a miracle that he doesn't have any bones too. He must be a very strong man too. His face was bleeding but we've already treated and taken care of it.

"Can....can we go in now....?" Eunhyuk politely asked

"Neh. He's awake right now." the doctor said

The four friends then went inside the room. They saw Siwon lying down on the bed. As soon as they entered, Siwon was very happy to see them.

"Siwon....." Tiffany said

"You know, before anything else, I want to thank all of you. Suzy and Eunjung, I've figured that you guys were the ones who told Tiffany. Although I didn't want her to find out at first, I'm very thankful that you girls told her. Without you girls, worse things might have happened. Kamsahamnida." Siwon said

"Neh. Siwon-ssi. We're just alright that no one was THAT hurt." Eunjung said

"Neh. We were very happy to help Siwon-ssi." Suzy said

"Drop the formalities and just call me Siwon." Siwon said

"Neh." the two girls said

"Eunhyuk, you know....mianhe if.....if I didn't accept your help." Siwon said

"I just knew that you'd need my help. Luckily, I saw these three running out of the school. I figured where they were going so I asked if I could go with them, telling them that I knew about it of course, and they agreed." Eunhyuk smiled

Siwon just chuckled with what Eunhyuk said. "Eunhyuk, you never do change do you." 

"Never Siwon." Eunhyuk smiled

"And you Tiffany." Siwon said

"W-what.....?" Tiffany asked nervously

"Thank you too. Very much in fact. I'm really sorry to cause all this stuff that might threaten your job." Siwon said

"Aniyo. My students are more important than my job." Tiffany smiled

"You didn't have to though. This wasn't really a big thing. Only a little bleeding and-....."

"What the?! What do you mean 'wasn't really a big thing'?! This was a big thing indeed Choi Siwon!" Tiffany scolded

"Aish! There you go with your scolding again! Did you forget that I'm the one wounded here?!" Siwon fired back

"YAH!! I'm the one who's worried sick for you here!" Tiffany shouted

"How can you be worried when instead of nursing me right now, you start scolding me?!" Siwon shouted

"Aigoo....there they go again...." Eunhyuk chuckled

"I know. They just won't admit it." Suzy smiled

"They even failed to notice that we're still here!" Eunjung said

"Let's leave them some alone time shall we?" Eunhyuk said

"Neh. Let's wait outside until they stop their cute fight." Suzy giggled

It was true. With all that bickering, the two didn't even realize that the other three had already left the room.

"You need to be scolded because you don't even care for yourself! How can it not be anything?!" Tiffany shouted

"With all this scolding, to me, you don't seem to be worried at all." Siwon said

Well, of course Siwon wasn't serious with all the bickering he did with Tiffany. He just wanted to lighten up the mood and play with her. It was sort of revenge too for rejecting him a few days ago.

"Mwoh?! Me not worried?! How can I not be worried?!" Tiffany asked

"Because you rejected me and I told you, you're scolding me right now. You're so dense Hwang Tiffany." Siwon said

Siwon tried to hold his laughter. He was trying to play right now with Tiffany.

"D-do.....you.....really....think that.....w-way....?" Tiffany asked

"Of course I-...."

Siwon stopped talking. He realized that him playing with Tiffany has gone too far as he saw Tiffany in tears.

"You......you don't understand anything Siwon! You d-don't under.....stand my feelings at all!" Tiffany cried

Siwon felt guilty. He didn't know what to say. All he did was to get up from his bed, walk to Tiffany and hug her."Yah.....! Why.....why are you.....crying....?" he asked

"Be-because you don't understand anything! How-how can.....can I not be....be worried for you....?!" she replied

Siwon took this as an opportunity. Maybe I can make her confess without her knowing it? He smirked at the thought as he continued to hug Tiffany. "Why do you get so worried for me?" 

"B-because you're my student!" she cried

Okay, that didn't work. Better try something else. "Why didn't you tell the teachers about me in the nightclub?"

"S-so that.....you wouldn't....get expelled!!" she cried

Seriously?! "Why did you scream so much when I kissed you?"

"That!! Umm....because....I was angry. I screamed out of anger." she replied

When I heard it, it didn't seem like an angry scream. More like how a fangirl would scream when she sees her idol crush. At least she hesitated. ! What would work? If this one doesn't work, I don't know what to do anymore! "Why did you tell me about your parents?"

"Because I love you you pabo!" she cried

Siwon could feel the adrenaline rush in him. Did she just confess to me? That, he was sure. He smirked at the thought. All he had to do now was to ask why she rejected him. "Why did you reject me then?" 

"Because teachers and students aren't allowed to-....."

Tiffany stopped talking. She knew what she just said. She immediately covered . She looked at Siwon, who was just smiling at her, as if teasing her. Did I just say what I just said?

"Hwang Tiffany, you have just confessed to me, Choi Siwon." Siwon smirked

"You!! You made me do that!! You took advantage of me when I was crying!!" Tiffany shouted as she hit Siwon on the shoulder

"Ouch!" 

Tiffany forgot. Siwon was injured. She didn't mean to slap him that hard. "Oops!! I'm sorry....is it okay...? Are you alright Siwon....? Are you-...."

But before she was even to say anything else, Siwon kissed her on the lips. Not a peck, but a full kiss just like before. 

Tiffany just went with it, rather, she was excited by it. What was she going to do anyway? She's already 'confessed' to him. With long minutes of kissing, they stopped.

"That was sweet songsaengnim." Siwon said

Tiffany could feel herself blushing. This was it. No turning back now. "Does this mean....we're in a....relationship right now....?" she asked

"Neh. But in a secret one of course. That is until I graduate then it can be public. Now, you are officially my girlfriend." Siwon smiled

Tiffany was very happy to hear this. This bad day turned out to be a good day for her. And of course, that smile on Siwon's face can make her day complete by just seeing a glimpse of it. She planned on looking at the calendar nearby to mark their anniversary of getting together but, sher realized another thing instead.

"Siwon.....today's Friday....right....?" Tiffany asked

"Neh. Wae?"

"I forgot....to....tutor Minho and Sooyoung...." 

"Oh that? I forgot to tell you. They don't need tutoring because their grades have improved so much." Siwon said

"Chi-chincha?!" Tiffany squealed

"Neh. You're a good teacher. And don't worry, you can visit my house sometimes. They'd be happy to know that you've become my girlfriend." Siwon smiled

Tiffany could only eye-smile at Siwon. This day could not get any better for the lovable Hwang Tiffany!

Meanwhile at the principal's office.....

What the kids didn't know was that because Mrs. Choi, the principal and Eunra were shocked with what happened, they secretly followed the kids. They were able to catch up because they used a car while the kids just ran. They saw everything too. They were about to help but Mrs. Choi stopped the couple and told them that the kids could handle it. Not that she had little care for her son, it was just that she had a lot of trust on the kids.

When it was all over, the three left the scene and went back to the school to discuss about it.

"Young people sure have a lot of energy in them." Eunra said

"We should get the story from Ms. Hwang afterwards. Errr....regarding the issue of revoking her teaching liscence-......umm...what do you think....Mrs. Choi....?" the principal asked

Mrs. Choi stood in front of them, with a poker face, not moving. She looked at them in a scary way. The couple was afraid that she was going to fire Tiffany. Then, she finally spoke. "Aniyo. The investigation is over anyway. It's too much trouble to make up another report all over again!!" she smiled

"Chincha Mrs Choi?!" the couple said in unison

"Neh." Mrs. Choi nodded

Hwang Tiffany......you've already grown-up so much compared to when I last saw you in America when you were a little girl. Mrs Choi thought smiling.
