-Hyori's POV-

  "Tao! Hyori! You're home!!!! Do you mind helping us out? By the way, where the hell were you?", Lay said excitedly. Luhan on the other hand was looking at me shyly. Probably because he freaked out on us last night. Tao glared at Luhan and said, "What the hell have you done to the house?".    Luhan mouthed him a 'Sorry' and loudly told us that it was for Coleen. Tao just nodded and headed over to help them.  I needed a few seconds to take in what Luhan was doing. He was putting up photos of Coleen and him (which were basically photoshopped) all over the place and he was also placing placards saying 'Sorry Coleen' on almost every wall of the living room.   "Luhan, If Coleen forgives you, you are cleaning up on your own...", Chanyeol, who was having a hard time arranging white flowers onto the railings of the stairs. Is Luhan planning a wedding?   "Okay...", Luhan said. He sounded disappointed.   "I'm kidding you little frog, I'll help you clean up, as long as this actually does work....", Chanyeol said, and Luhan's expression lightened up a bit. There were also white rose petals leading from who knows where to the living room. If this is a wedding, I am seriously gonna throw up.   "Uh, Hyori... I'm really sorry about last night...", Luhan said shyly, as he approached me. He handed me a cute Panda stuffed toy and I think I blushed because he must've thought that I liked Tao or something. But it's not that I didn't, it's just, awkward.   "It's okay Luhan, I understand how you care for Tao...", I smiled, shyly taking the tiny Panda stuffed toy and quickly shoving it into my jacket's pocket so Tao doesn't see it.   "So are you guys like, dating or something?", Luhan asked me   "Uhh. NO, why?", I replied, furrowing my brows   "Well, nothing, I mean you two weren't home this morning and Chanyeol said something about you and Tao not getting much sleep last night so--"   " Lulu, I think you perfectly know why we slept late last night...", I interrupted crossing my arms.   "Oh, right... My mistake", he blushed and continued putting up the placards. I was helping Chanyeol set up the flowers on the railings when we heard a knock on the door.   "I'll get it!", Luhan said enthusiastically, then ran off to the front door.   "Uhh, Lay, little help here?", we heard Lulu say from the door.   "Okay...", Lay replied and he ran off to the front door   They came back a few seconds after, and Lulu was holding a huge black gift box with a light pink ribbon on it and a medium sized paper bag reading "Toblerone". Wow, Luhan is good. I can pretty much predict that Coleen will forgive him... For the chocolate. He laid them down near the foot of the stairs and Lay followed, holding out a bouquet of pink roses.   "XiaoLu, what's with the oversized gift box?", Chanyeol asked   "You'll see soon enough Chanyeol"   "Uhm Hyori, would it be okay if you check to see if Coleen is awake?", Lay asked me as he placed the flowers on top of the box.   "Sure, should I wake her up already or are you guys gonna wait?", I replied.   "Actually, I think I'm ready to let her see all of this...", Luhan interrupted.   "Oh okay.. Uhh Luhan, I was wondering. Why such a big preparation? I thought you and Coleen hated each other? Or are you planning on marrying her today?", I asked him mischevously   "Well, as much as I love picking on her and basically annoying her, she's still my friend, and you're her friend, and I hate having fights with friends... So yeah...and besides, she's a girl, she deserves to be spoiled... and no, I AM NOT MARRYING HER...", he replied crossing his arms. Well that was enlightening.   "Okay, you guys wait here, I'll be back with Coleen okay?". They nodded and I headed upstairs, being careful enough not to mess up the flowers on the railings and the petals leading upstairs.   I followed the trail of petals leading to where Coleen stayed at and I twisted the doorknob. Luckily it was open. I peaked inside and saw Coleen sleeping on her belly. I approached her as quietly as I could and I sat down on the bed.   "Hey, Coleen, dude... Wake up...", I said softly, slightly shaking Coleen's shoulder. She groaned and her eyes fluttered open. Her eyes? They were pretty puffy, probably from all of the crying she had done last night. Well Luhan did get to her, bad.   "What's going on? Why are you all dressed up? Are we leaving already?", she asked sleepily.   "No silly, I want to show you something...", we both got off the bed and I saw Tao standing at the door. He smiled at us and walked away.   "Hey guys! Coleen is up!", I heard him say from outside. I suddenly heard Echo by Jason Walker play on the speakers from downstairs. 'This is gonna be good'. I led the sleepy girl outside and she looked really confused when she saw the trails of white petals on the carpet. Seriously... How much did Luhan spend for all of this?   "Uh, Ri, what the fudge is all this?", she asked   "You'll see", I said then I left her to walk downstairs on her own. I hurriedly ran back to the guys since I wanted to see Coleen's reaction. It turns out that Lara also helped Luhan set all of this up, since she was already downstairs, fully awake, when I got there. Well played Lara, well played. Anyway, it also turns out, that everyone else (Kai, Xiumin, Chen and Kris who I assumed were still asleep)  was already downstairs and they were all waiting for Coleen to show up. Chanyeol had his arms around Lara's shoulders and he looked really happy. His creepy but charming smile showing on his face. Kai on the other hand, was between happy and sort of not-into-the-situation. Maybe he was jealous? Oh god Lara, what kind of spell do you have on these guys?   "So, what time did you guys wake up?", I asked Lara, who was behind Tao.   "About 9:15 am, I went into Tao's room and found you both... Well.. Missing, so I assumed you, Tao and Coleen left me alone here but then I checkedColeen's room and she was asleep so yeah... By the way, breakfast's on the table if you want to eat...", se replied. I nodded and gave her and Sparkly teeth a little space.   When Coleen appeared from upstairs, I wanted to laugh my head off because she was so shocked. Seeing all the Sorry's on the walls, her photos photoshopped with Luhan's fixed all over the place, with all the flowers everywhere and with Luhan kneeling at the foot of the stairs holding out the bouquet and the big gift box sitting behind him, I wouldn't wonder why she was so shocked. She walked down the stairs, pouted and crossed her arms at Luhan. He stood up and towered over her.   "I'm sorry Coleen, I didn't mean to be so cold to you. I was just worried about Tao since he's one of the youngest in our group. I promise that I won't be like that towards you ever again. Will you forgive me?", Luhan whispered. Coleen looked at him for a second, then at me, then her attention was attracted by the bag of chocolate and her eyes lit up. She smiled at Luhan and hugged him tightly, causing Luhan to drop the bouquet to hug her back.   "You're still a sasquatch...", she teased, pulling away from Lulu.   "And you're still a little girl... So, do you forgive me?"   "Yes.."   "Really? But why so easily?"   "Because chocolate... That's why...", Coleen giggled.   "Ohh.. okay..." Luhan pouted and lowered his eyes.   "I'm just messing with you! You nerfherder! Come here!", she said, pulling him for another hug.   "Ugh, guys, get a room! I've seen enough love for one morning...", Chanyeol cut in, and Coleen pulled away from Luhan.   "Is that for me?", Coleen asked, seeing the big black box.   "No, it's for Sehun... I owe him a gift for Christmas so I bought one while supplies last...", Luhan said. Coleen nodded her head in realization and I was standing there confused, I thought it was for her?   "I'm kidding! Of course it's for you!", Luhan said after seeing Coleen's disappointed reaction. Her eyes lit up again and she went over to unwrap, more like open, the gift. She pulled out a big, white, fluffy Teddy Bear holding a heart that said "I'm Sorry Coleen. From: Luhan".   "Awww, thanks sasquatch!"   "You're welcome Mini Me". Coleen glared at him and hit him with the teddy bear.   "So... Who's gonna clean up?", Tao suddenly interrupted. We all pointed to Luhan and Tao pulled me by the hand and we all ran away.   "You guys can be very mean you know!", Luhan shouted at us after realizing that we abandoned him.   ----------   I ran with Tao and Coleen upstairs and we split up. Coleen went back into her room with the teddy bear and I went back with Tao in his room. We were laughing our heads off as we went into the room.   "Well that was awesome...", Tao chuckled. I nodded and headed towards the bed, sitting on it.   "Did you know that this was gonna happen?", he asked, sitting down beside me.   "I honestly had no idea that this was gonna happen... LuHan's really sweet isn't he?"   "Yeah, he tends to be like that towards her. He changes when Coleen's around. He's more annoying, but he's much warmer than he usually is towards her. He doesn't act like that when other girls are around..."   "Ohh, okay. So are we going anywhere else today?", I asked him. Oh my gosh what if Luhan really does like Coleen?!   "I don't know... Kris and Kai are more likely to plan things on Sundays", he replied, taking my hand in his and swinging it playfully. He. Is Such. A Kid.   "Oh.. Okay..."   "Speaking of the devil...", Tao said, I looked to find him staring at his door. I, in curiousity, also looked at where his attention was a saw Kris at the door.   "More like Dragon, Tao...", Kris said approaching us. "We're going to the amusement park nearby, in a few hours. Do you think you guys are gonna come with us or are you gonna spend some quality time alone like you did earlier?"   "What are you talking about?", Tao said, surprised, pulling his hand away from mine.   "Well you had me worrying like hell when I saw that you and Hyori weren't in here this morning, so I sent Kai off to find you about an hour and a half ago. Turns out you two were all lovey-dovey on the beach when he arrived, sleeping in each other's arms like lovers...", Kris snickered.   "Shut up Kris, I just wanted to show her the beach..."   "Well you better be careful Tao, the last time you two left, we had to come to your aid, and you were bleeding like hell...", Kris reminded him. I lowered my head in embarrassment, realizing that I was a burden for Kris.   "I didn't mean it like that Hyori... It's just that... I want both of you to be safe... Especially since Tao is on the verge of--", Tao glared at Kris and instead he just muttered, "Nevermind".   "Tao is on the verge of what?", I asked, looking up at him.   "Nothing... Look I gotta go, Baozi and I were helping Luhan out downstairs. See ya'", Kris replied then left quickly.   "What was Kris taking about?", I asked, turning to Tao.   "I don't know. That guy gets crazy sometimes...", he answered, taking my hand again and playing with my nails. I just nodded and put my curiousity aside. But I'm still going to find out what's happening.I need to know. Tao and Kris can't fool me and I'm not that stupid.   "So... Should we go and help Luhan? The poor kid seems to need some help down there...", I asked. Tao nodded and we headback downstairs to help Lulluby.   -----   I was plopped on Tao's bed, using his laptop, and he was beside me, sleeping. He was pretty tired from helping Luhan downstairs. He's been asleep for almost an hour. After the whole "Luhan and Coleen Reconciliation" scheme, I quickly put back my pj's, for my own comfort. I was pretty happy that they're okay now, I hate it when there's an awkward environment around me, and it's a good thing that Luhan was confident enough to spend money and time just to make Coleen fell better, because it's probably thesweetest thing I've ever seen. Luckily Lara took photos of the living room, the gifts, the flowers, together with everyone present and Luhan and Coleen before we took everything down.   *knock* *knock*   I placed his laptop down on the study beside his side table and stood up carefully from the bed to avoid waking Tao up. I opened the door to see who it was.   "Oh hey Kris oppa--gege, uhh. What exactly do you prefer me to call you? I mean you're Chinese but you speak English and you're friends with Korean guys and you also understand Korean and now I'm totally confused so..."   Kirs laughed. "Well just call me Kris, unless you feel comforable about calling me Oppa?", he said smiling at me.   "Alright, I'll just call you Kris... So what can I help you with?"   "Well, is Tao in there? He isn't downstairs so I assumed he--"   "Yeah, he's sleeping.. He seems pretty tired...", I said, pointing to Tao, who was lying on his belly.   " Ah, I see. Well if you could wake him up, tell Tao to get ready for the amusement park, we leave the house at 11, okay?", Kris said from outside of Tao's room.   "Oh alright, by the way, what time is it?", I asked. He glanced at his watch-"It's 9:30 already... I gotta go. I think Coleen's asleep in her room...Better wake her up", Kris replied.   "Oh okay, so is Lara awake?", I asked.   "Yeah, she's downstairs with Jongin, Chanyeol left to buy some snacks..."   "Oh... Alright.. We'll be out in a few...", I smiled at Kris and he smiled back at me then headed for Coleen's room. I shut the door and  I was startled by noise Tao made when he shifted in his bed. I walked over the bed and I stared at Tao for a while. He looks so cute when he's sleeping, and no I'm not a creeper. I reached for is shoulder and shook him lightly. He didn't react. I shook him harder and he still didn't react.   "Okay.. That. Is. It...". I hopped onto the bed and started jumping in order to wake Tao up.   "WAKE UP IN THE MORNING FEELING LIKE P. DIDDY GOT MY GLASSES I'M OUT THE DOOR I'M GONNA HIT THE CITY!!!", I sang as I jumped around his bed   He opened his eyes and glared at me for waking him up, then he giggled at me. I probably look stupid right now but I didn't care. I didn't stop jumping so Tao wouldn't fall back into his sleep. He suddenly stood up on the bed and pulled me down by the waist and we fell onto the bed... and that ladies and gentlemen, is how Tao ruine
