"Yah! Baek Jangmi! Did you seriously buy the diet pills?!" asked Iseul as she and I got closer to our school dormitories.

Jangmi stood by the school field with Seunghyun, Yuri, Jieun, and Kyuri when we arrived right by them.

Jangmi scoffed, "Do you seriously think I would buy them? I don't need those stupid things. I'm already perfect."

Seunghyun, Yuri, Jieun, Kyuri, Iseul, and I all sighed and shook our heads. I mean, we're happy that she's not going to be using the diet pills but she's so conceited sometimes.

"So anyway, how did your shooting go, Soo-ah?" asked Seunghyun.

"It went well." I answered back nonchalantly.

"We met Keemi there~!" Iseul said knowingly and wiggled her eyebrows.

"S-so what?" blushed Seunghyun.

Jangmi sent a glare at her step-brother.

Kyuri tsk-ed and patted Jangmi's back reassuringly, "It's alright. Keemi's your rival, and I don't think Seunghyun will ever date her until you approve."

"Oh! And we saw Hyesun and Joolee, too." I commented.

"Really? Did Joolee have anything to tell me?" asked Yuri.

"She did. She asked if you did the laundry today, keke!" laughed Iseul happily.

"Oh darn! I forgot about that! I have to go, guys! I need to do the laundry, heh heh ^^;;" Yuri smiled sheepishly and hugged all of us before heading off to her dorm.

"Hey, Kyuri, where's Seungri?" asked Iseul suddenly, sensing that Kyuri's twin brother was weirdly not with her for once.

"Oh, he's working on a choreography that he's supposed to perform like tomorrow." answered Kyuri and shrugged.

"Hyesun went to criticize it, remember?" I added in.

"Oh, yeah~!" Iseul remembered.

"Anyways, I think we should head to our dorms now." commented Jieun and we all agreed.

Maybe they're all tired. Well, I am, since I had a shooting today. I hope I can get some rest without Jieun going crazy in our dorm room... -___-;;

As we neared, there was a huge crowd by the Singing department dorms. And as the oh-so-curious Jieun, she dragged us all towards the commotion.

"Kya~! Oppa! You're so cool!" shouted many fangirls.

*Sigh~*... Who is it this time?

Chris Brown's "Run it" was playing as five guys were dancing in sync, showing off their flexibility and nice moves. Jieun suddenly screamed with excitement right next to me. Oh, joy. I think I'm deaf in one ear now.

Who are these guys anyway?... Wait a minute... One of them looks familiar... Hmm... *Gasp!* It's Minho!

"Hey, Soo-ah! There's Minho, your shoot-bud!" giggled Iseul and pointed at him.

I nodded in reply.

Wow... He can dance. Wasn't he in the Modeling department, though?

"He's actually in the singing department. He models during his free time." said Iseul and grinned.

... -___-;; She can read my mind... Scary.

"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh! Key looks so hot! Kya!" screamed Jieun and fanned herself frantically.

Jangmi just rolled her eyes at Jieun and stared dreamily at one of the guys. He had hair that was dyed to a light brown-ish color and when he sang, they sung the part only, his voice sounded amazing. Does she like him or something?

Who the heck are these guys anyway?! Gah, I'm frustrated!... I feel someone staring at me...

I turned my head in that direction to see Minho, still performing, but staring at me.

O________o

Did I do something wrong?

"Omona! Look, Soo-ah! Minho's staring at you!" whispered Jieun excitedly into my ear.

... How does Jieun even know Minho's name?... Is she some kind of stalker? -___-;;

Throughout the whole performance, Minho had stared at me... Creepy...

The crowd dispersed but most of them just followed after the boys as they packed up their boombox and headed back to their dorm.

"Kya~! Did you see how hot Key looked?! And Minho was freakin' staring at Soo-ah the whole time!" spazzed Jieun as the five of us continued our way to our shared dorm.

"Yeah, I saw~! And I heard from Iseul that he was your shooting-buddy today." added Jangmi and gave me that knowing look.

"Oh my gosh! Your shooting partner was Minho?! THE Flaming Charisma, Choi Minho?!" Jieun practically yelled that in my ear!

She seriously needs to take a chill pill!

"Yes, he was my shooting partner but NOTHING happened, it's not like how you girls think, and what the heck is Flaming Charisma?" I retorted.

"You don't know Flaming Charisma? It means something like fire burning but it's a very leading-"

"Yeah, yeah! I meant Minho, idiot!" interrupted Jieun from Kyuri's nice explanation.

"... Flaming Charisma Minho?" I'm dumbfounded now.

"No, duh! Don't tell me you don't know about SHINee!" gasped Jieun dramatically, "I mean, everybody, EVERYBODY knows them! They're going to be the next big thing in Show Biz! The famous five trainees at Star Academy!"

The girls and my reaction to Jieun's over-excitement: "......"

"Iseul, do you know who SHINee is?" I asked.

"Nope! I just met Minho today, remember?" she answered back.

"Kyuri, do you know who SHINee is?"

"Nuh-uh."

"Jangmi, do you know who SHINee is?"

"Not really. Kinda."

Okay, so it's like three against two. Fair enough.

"So, tell us about this SHINee then." piped up Iseul and that set off the forever-talking Jieun once again.

*Sigh~*... Why can't Iseul be less curious?

... I still can't figure out why Minho stared at me... Is there a specific reason why? Or was it just crowd-gazing techniques he was trying out?

Hmm...
