Pairing: Baekyeon, Chanyeol

Plot: Baekhyun is geek and Jiyeon is queenka in high school. Their parents are friends and they have arranged married.

*RINGGGGGGG~*

The bell for lunch just rang.

Jiyeon and her friends left their belongings in class, just like other students, and headed over to the cafeteria for lunch. And as they walked down the corridor, the students couldn’t help but just stare at her.

She is a beauty and of course, she throne the Beauty of 2013 in their high school. That was a beauty contest the school lamely put up for reactions and for students to participate, and her friends lamely sent her name in.

Well, and thanks to her friends, she got the throne!

And she’s not those almighty-ladies-that-think-they-rock es like any they have in any other schools in Korea.

No way.

She is kind, she helps people, and she is smart.

Her friends too, are not those -up es, but they simply got along well because they have common interest: dance. They joined the dance club, and ever since they joined, the number of students simply increased over days.

Jiyeon walked towards the cafeteria elegantly, while chatting along with her friends, and finally got into the queue for her food.

Right when it was her turn to order, she couldn’t find her wallet. “I think I left my wallet in the classroom.” She pouted.

“I’ll lend you first! You can pay me back afterwards!” Eunjung, one of her friends, chirped.

“It’s okay! I’ll just go and get it. You guys can go and eat first.” Jiyeon beamed and shooed them off to their seats.

“Go on~” She pushed them off when she saw them unwilling to move. They finally agreed and went to their table to start their meal.

Jiyeon exited the cafeteria and walked to her classroom to get her wallet. “Ahhh~ There you are!” She giggled to herself when she finally found her wallet under her table.

“Let’s go for food now~ I’ll fill you up soon, tummy tummy~” She sang with her hands on her tummy and walked down the corridor but stopped her tracks when she heard some noises coming from the back of the staircase.

She walked slowly to the back of the stairs while trying to peek since the noise died down.

But right when she was one step away from peeking, there was another loud bang. Jiyeon frowned and ran over to the back of the staircase only to see 2 taller delinquents kicking a smaller student.

“Hey!” She pushed them off the smaller kid and had her arms widely opened to protect the kid behind her, “Don’t bully him!”

One of the taller bullies smirked, “It’s the princess of the school!”

“That’s right, and she’s getting into our business!” The other one replied and they laughed happily.

Jiyeon rolled her eyes and held her chin up high, “I said don’t bully him!”

“Fine, we’ll let him go if you stay.”

She maintained her posture despite feeling nervous inside, “You wish! You want money for lunch? I can give it to you!”

“How tough, I love it! We don’t need the money now, we need you~” They sang.

Jiyeon gulped and stepped backwards when she saw the two of them moving towards her.

“I’ll shout!”

“Go on. No one can hear you anyway. Everyone is busy their lunch in.” They had their arms crossed.

“What’s going on here?” Thank God. Right on time, the discipline master stepped in. He was the in-charge for today’s lunch patrol and as he walked by, he heard noises too.

“Are you two bulling a girl?! And you guys hit a boy?! DAMN IT! HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU WANT TO GET SUSPENDED?! I’LL MAKE SURE YOUR STAYS OUT OF THE SCHOOL FOR A MONTH NOW!” The master pulled their ears and walked to the principal room.

Jiyeon heaved a huge sigh of relief and turned around to see the poor student on the floor. She bent down to his height and beamed, “its okay now! They’re gone!”

The guy managed to return a weak smile, “Erm… Thank-you.”

“It’s alright! I’m Park Jiyeon, and you are?! Are you new here? I didn’t see you before!” Jiyeon introduced as she helped him up.

“Baekhyun. By- I mean, Bang Baekhyun. I just moved here recently.” He replied as he pushed his spectacle up his nose. That’s when she realized he had his hair to the back too. Jiyeon moved him and he began to groan. “Oh gosh. Do you need the nurse?!”

Baekhyun shook his head to reject it, “It’s alright.”

“But I don’t think you’re okay…” She mumbled as she helped him out from under the stairs.

“OH! There you are!” A taller guy with spectacle on and 8:2 proportion of hair ran over to them, “Baekhyun-ah! I’ve been searching for you for so long!”

“Erm… He’s actually being beaten up by the bullies. He’s injured now but he doesn’t want to go to the infirmary.” Jiyeon explained while passing him over to the taller guy.

“Oh! You’re Jiyeon!” He exclaimed when he finally saw her face.

Jiyeon giggled sheepishly as a reply, “Yeah… I am. How did you know?”

“Well, you’re all over the board.” He grinned, “I’m Chanyeol! His friend!” He pointed to Baekhyun and introduced himself.

“Right.” Jiyeon smiled in return and Baekhyun groaned again, “I think you need to bring him to the infirmary.”

“I’ll get going now then. Thanks for the help!” Chanyeol beamed and brought him away.

Jiyeon bowed slightly as a reply to be polite, “My pleasure…” And she walked back to the cafeteria to join her friends for lunch before times up.

♥♥♥♥♥

The rest of the day went on smoothly. Jiyeon went back to her class and listened attentively to the lessons whereas Baekhyun stayed in the infirmary until school ended.

They got back home safely and received an order for them to dress up by their parents.

“Come on, sweetheart.” Mrs. Park patted Jiyeon’s head, “Dress nicely, we’re going to have a dinner out with a family friend and we have something good to announce.”

Jiyeon jumped around excitedly, “Good news?! MOM! Are you pregnant?!”

Mrs. Park smacked her arms with a disbelieved expression but was just teasing her, “Are you kidding me?! Raising you was hard enough!”

Jiyeon pouted sadly, “Fine… I know I eat a lot and I got sick real often, that cost a bomb for you and dad, and I always ask you guys to buy books for me, that was my fault, I know…”

Mr. Park laughed as he walked into the room, “Glad that you know.”

“DAD!” Jiyeon gasped in astonishment which made her parents laughed in happiness. Well, they loved teasing her.

“Alright, alright. You seriously have to dress up now. We’re running late.” Her dad pecked her head before walking out of the room, “Come on. Be my pretty lady tonight.”

However, after he said that, Mrs. Park roared after him childishly, “YEOBO!! THEN WASN’T I PRETTY?!”

Jiyeon laughed at her hilarious parents and couldn’t help but feel thankful to them. They raised her up all these years and she promised she would always make them happy.

As for Baekhyun, his parents were the same.

“Come on, Baekie! We’ve got to go! It’s late!” Mr. Byun hollered from the front door and Baekhyun came running down the stairs from his room.

“I’M COMING!” He snapped.

Mrs. Byun giggled elegantly when she saw her son with his behavior. “There you are, my handsome son.” She fixed his fringe properly. “Wear your shoes now, we got to go!”

“Alright, alright…” He wore his shoes and rushed to the car where his parents were already in, after he locked the door.

“Where are we going?” He began the topic on the way to the restaurant.

“We’re going to meet your fiancée with her parents~” Mrs. Byun sang. “That’s right. We’re finally going to tell her about it! Don’t you think it’s unfair only you know but not her? And you’ve been secretly looking at her in your school, as a geek.” And Mr. Byun continued for her.

“Seriously? Mom? Dad? Just for all this I have to dress up? And I found out that my fiancée is actually just like other girls. Pretty and all but I think she’s just any other girl I could find in a club. Her skirt was short and she has make-up on, like those s in the club.”

“Son. I don’t think she will be that bad… Come on…” Mr. Byun beamed as he looked at his son through the rear mirror.

“Okay, okay. I’ll wait for the ‘surprise’~” Baekhyun sang rather sarcastically and that made his parents laughed.

“Right! We’re here! Finally!” Mr. Byun looked at his wife before turning his head to look at his son, “Off the car now~”

They went into the restaurant in the mall, which they reserved a seat before, and headed off to their table.

“Oh, thank goodness. We arrived first. I wouldn’t want to look bad in front of them.” Mr. Byun sighed as he sat down. Mrs. Byun sat right beside him and took a sip of the plain water and their son sat right beside his mom.

“Order now or later, sir?”

“Later.”

The waiter bowed and walked off. Right on the dot he left, the door opened again and in came the other family. “Pretend not to know her, Baekie!” Mrs. Byun mumbled.

“Joowon!” Mr. Byun stood up and almost ran over to Mr. Park, and hugged him tightly. “It’s been long, Jaeyong!”

The mothers too, did some hugging and hugging again.

“Annyeonghaseyo, I’m Park Jiyeon!” Jiyeon bowed politely and beamed at the Byuns.

 “Oh my! Just a cute girl!” Mrs. Byun squealed and went over to hug her. “That’s my son over there.” She pointed to Baekhyun in which he only did a wave. Jiyeon could feel her heart accelerated after he did that. *Baekhyun? He looks like him though… Nah… Our school Baekhyun is a Bang… But this Baekhyun is cute!*

Mrs. Byun rolled her eyes, “He’s always like that. Moody and you know… Come on, let’s take a seat now and order the food! I bet we’re all hungry.” She announced and they took their seats quickly.

They ordered the food and began digging in since the food was served quickly.

“So… The main reason for today’s meeting is…” Mr. Byun began and looked at the two kids. One literally has ‘confusion’ written on her face while the other was getting bored.

Mr. Park laughed and continued for him, “We decided to make an arranged marriage for you two!”

“WHAT?!” Baekhyun stood up rather harshly, trying to make a scene to reject it, “DAD! I’m only 18!”

“And so is the girl.” His dad replied coolly.

“But we don’t even know each other! There’s no love!” Baekhyun retorted again, with his face red with anger while Jiyeon was quiet all the time. She can’t help but feel attracted to him.

Love at first sight, maybe?

But the guy doesn’t seem to think so, so she kept quiet.

“Feelings can be natured, son.” Mrs. Park smiled warmly at him.

“Why don’t you two go and enjoy the night and get to know each other? I think we have to get home now.” The adults began to leave which left the two bewildered.

“Okay… So now what?” He sighed and sat down on his chair in defeat. Jiyeon smiled in return, “Wanna take a walk? It seemed stuffy here…”

“Fine.” Baekhyun exclaimed and left the room first. Jiyeon sighed and followed him out soon after. It would be hard for her now.

They took a walk in the nearby street, which was strangely empty, and with a distance between them. “So… I know you’re Byun Baekhyun and you’re 18. Where do you study at?” She beamed widely and waited for a reply.

“Look. This whole won’t work out okay. So don’t bother to do all those things.” He put out his front first. Jiyeon gasped inwardly and looked at him with hurt filling up her eyes but he won’t even take a glance at her.

“We will get married as they said, and divorced half a year later. We’ll just tell them we don’t have sparks between us.” As much as Baekhyun wanted to reject this whole , his dad already warned him before he left.

“Don’t you ever think of rejecting it, dude. You will know what will happen to your credit cards and those collections of discs in your room.” – was what he said.

Jiyeon sighed and held her tears back, “Okay.”

“I’ll get going now.” Baekhyun said and walked away, just like that. Not even attempting to ask if she need a ride home.

Jiyeon continued walking down the streets with her mind full of stuffs. *He must really hate me… Stupid beauty 2013… That was seriously a joke… He didn’t even look at me…*

She only went home after an hour or so.

“How’s the date, my sweetheart?!” Jiyeon entered the house only to be welcomed with her happy and joyful parents.

“Hmmm… It turned out well.” Jiyeon smiled and walked up the stairs, “I’m tired, appa, omma. I’ll sleep first. Night-night!”

“Night-night!” They waved back and prepared themselves to sleep as well.

Baekhyun got home much earlier than her.

“Baekie! How was the date?!”
