POV of the Omnipresent Narrator

All was quiet in the Kim Manor, which made sense, since it was barely the break of dawn. Everyone was asleep in their proper beds, dreaming of happy things such as puppies and candy and-

"AJ!!!!!!!!"

What...why is there yelling...it's only mornin-

"AJ! What did you do to my brushes????!" yelled a angered voice.

"What brushes?" complained a groggy male.

"My toothbrush! My hair brush! And my flippin' eyelash brush...?! What did you do with them??"

"How would I know? And since when do eyelashes need to be brushed??"

The younger of the siblings groaned in annoyance and began to whine, "Oppaaaaaa~ please, I need them! My hair is beyond crazy and I have no way of fixing it without my brush. I don't even have time to shower properly to attempt to fix it." She pouted and crossed her arms while the older (half ) male sat up in his bed, wiping his eyes awake.

"You're welcome to borrow my hair brush, but I honestly don't know where your brushes are."

"Ugh..." complained the younger as she walked away toward her brother's bathroom.

"Sooji-yah...! Why are you awake so early?!" AJ yelled after his sister.

"Because, oppa, it's the first day of high school for me!"

And with that a new day and a new start for Kim Sooji began!

Sooji's POV

I'm so tired...why does school have to start so early?. This is what I thought as I sat in the car on my way to school. I am honestly beyond excited to start my first day as a freshman, but as soon as the car started moving I became drowsy. There's just something about the motion of a vehicle that makes me sleepy. I didn't even realize I had fallen asleep until my driver woke me up and told me that we had arrived. I grabbed my backpack from the floor and stepped out of the opened door. It wasn't the greatest start of my first day of high school. My hair is a knotted mess and my makeup is too plain. I definitely won't be making an impression this way, but I guess I can stay as a wallflower until I figure out how things work here. I'll have to go to the bathroom to make sure I look decent enough before walking into homeroom, maybe I could try to fix my make up some more and make it dramatic or maybe I could try- "Sooji-yah!" a familiar voice said, which pulled me out of my thoughts. I turned toward the sound and found my best friend, Kevin, walking into the gates of the school, waving towards me. I smiled and waved in return. Surely Kevin could make this day go much better.

As he walked over, I bowed and greeted him, "Good morning Kevin oppa. You look mighty fine in your school uniform." He seemed to blush a little. He's so pretty...How can a boy be so pretty??? Kevin is prettier than most girls I know and because of that he tends to get bullied by both es. Boys call him gay while girls envy his darling looks. Although he's older than me, I try my best to protect him since he's quite sensitive to harsh words. It seems like I've always been protecting him...

We actually met in elementary school. In the school yard. During recess. When he was being bullied...

The infamous trio of bullies known as "The Fighter Pilots" had been thinking about who would be their next target, since the last kid they bullied had actually been so harrassed that he'd transferred schools. And they set their sights on the pretty eyed boy with the cute smile and innocent face, Kevin. They had pushed him down and yelled profane words that I didn't think any elementary school student would have even known the meaning of. They were about to begin kicking him when I decided to jump in. I couldn't stand seeing anyone else get harrassed, especially not someone as adorable as this child.

I stood in front of him with my arms spread wide and a determined look on my face. "Stop this!"

"Why should we?" scoffed their leader.

"Because he doesn't deserve to be punished by someone who can't even spell their own name correctly the first time." I crossed my arms and stuck my tongue out at him. "Merong~!"

He looked insulted. Good. I've managed to accomplish something. "Now get out of here before I call the teacher!"

"What's the teacher gonna do, huh!"

"Call your parents, duh. I'm sure they'll have fun taking away all your priviledges...especially that credit card with the 500,000 won limit that you're so proud of. Ooh! Maybe they'll make you walk to school instead of getting driven! Keke~ Walk away now or I'll make sure something gets done about your inappropriate behavior. Don't forget, I still run this school."

He stalked off and his cronies followed suit. Thank goodness. I let out a sigh of relief and deflated a little. I straightened back up and turned around to see Kevin looking a little pale. I grabbed his arm and helped him up. "Mianhe oppa. I'm not normally this cruel, but those guys get on my every nerve that I can't help but use every advantage I have against them."

"I-i-it's a-alright," he replied.

"Are YOU alright?" I asked. He looked like he was on the verge of falling down. Was he that scared?? Of them? Of me, perhaps? "Don't worry. I won't hurt you. I promise," I said as I help my pinky out. A pinky promise is the closest thing you have to trust when you're in elementary school. Especially an elementary school full of spoiled rich kids that don't know what real friendship is. So, I was a bit surprised when he had wrapped his pinky around mine. He was smiling then. He accepted me. YAY!

From then on, we spent everyday together. My father owned the school (as well as other companies and chains) and I was top of my class, so most kids had avoided me because they thought I was too good for them. (Which could be true...) Plus, I didn't have a very attracting expression when calm or relaxed. They were simply afraid of me, so I was happy when Kevin accepted me as his friend.

Kevin was a rich kid too, but it seems his household situation made him different from other kids. Most kids' parents at that elementary school were always working to make money. They all owned successful businesses and didn't really have time for their kids. But Kevin's mother had decided to become a stay-at-home mom, since she couldn't help but want to take care of him. His dad loved him as well, but since he was the only one working, he wasn't home to often. His mother would take care of him well. She'd feed him, play with him, tuck him into bed, and all that jazz. And since Kevin had such a pretty face, his mother had a tendency to dress him up in girls' clothing because she thought it was the cutest thing. Kevin didn't mind it so much. He had liked being able to spin in a dress and watch as the fabric flew up and down around him. It made his mother smile, which made him happy.

This could explain why he was so feminine now. He knows how to shop for girls. Knows what fabrics and colors go together. And is great at giving advice. No, he's not gay. Just extremely effeminate. I like it well enough. He's like a girl without all the drama. He's the best, best friend I could have asked for.

Anyways, back to the present! Today was the first day of high school. Not just any high school...actually...it was just any high school. The presitigous, rich kid high school that Kevin and I had planned on going to was not where we had wanted to be. We had grown up with all those kids since elementary school, but it's not like any of them liked us. So, we had decided to start fresh at some place that didn't really know who we were or knew our family background. (Which was kind of hard to do for me since my dad's name is known everywhere...) We decided we'd (hopefully) make more friends here at a normal high school, in which we would live normal lives. (We even have our own apartments where we could stay at.) Our parents had been uneasy about our decision, but eventually gave in because they knew they could trust us. Our lives had been normal before we moved to Korea. Kevin and I are both foreigners, for the most part. His parents are both Korean, but he was born in America. I was born there too, but both my parents are not Korean. My dad is the only one Korean and my mother just happens to be Latino. (Yeah, I still don't understand how that went about happening...)

The bell rang.

Aish...I've let my mind wander again...and I'm late for class. Kevin and I had been walking around aimlessly looking for our homeroom. When the bell rang, I sprinted and Kevin tried to keep up. Once we reach the room with the number that matched the one on our schedule, we were both out of breath and sweating. It's not even summer...

I opened the door and walked into the classroom. "Thank you for joining our class," the teacher said sarcasticlly, "and just who might you two be?"

"We're the new transfer students," Kevin said, still panting a bit.

"And why are you late? Did you run here?"

"Yes. We couldn't find the room and then the bell rang..." I drifted off in my explanation. The teacher didn't seem to want to hear it. He just gestured to the front of the classroom, "Introduce yourselves," then pointed to the seats in the back, "then sit down and pay attention."

"Ne, seonsaengnim," Kevin and I said in unison. We couldn't help but giggle. The look on the teacher's face definitely made us reconsider that action.

We walked to the front of the room and bowed. "Annyeonghaseyo," we said together.

"My name is Kim Sooji."

"And I'm Woo Sunghyun, but you can call me Kevin."

A kid in the back raised his hand..."Yes Soohyun? What is your question?" asked the annoyed teacher.

"Why should we call you Kevin when your name is Sunghyun??"

"Because that's what my parents called me when we lived in America," Kevin answered shyly.

"Ooooh! So you're like Eli!" Soohyun commented while patting the back of a boy whose head had been laying on the desk. He must've been sleeping. Bad student. When he stirred, Soohyun whispered to him, "Eli, Eli! Look! It's someone from the states, like you!" By now the whole class was staring at the boy named Eli. Even I was a little curious as to what was going to happen. When he picked up his sleepy head to look at us, I thought my heart was going to burst. It started to beat faster than I thought possible, but I didn't quite understand why...I mean, Eli was cute, but it's not like I hadn't seen a cute boy before, and then he smiled...My life, the way I knew it, was over.

A/N: Aish...I don't even know what to say about this...it's like I'm rabbling. I definitely didn't plan ahead. If I had, so many things would've been changed. I think I put too much background information, but I feel like that might've been necessary... Anyways, I hope it makes sense. And I hope you liked it. Please comment and subscribe!
