When I got back to the room Hyemi and Sohyun were still not back. "Wow! They must be having a great time." I spoke out to the dark room. 
Eonnie, are you ok? How are things going with Suho Oppa?"

After taking a shower I remember that I was suppose to call Minah. I really don't feel like talking on the phone. I'll just text her. 
Sohyun:

Eonnie, is well. No need to worry. Our movie is just now ending. I'll be home soon. 

"Minah, what are you doing? I don't feel like talking right now, can we just text?"

I lay back on my bed and think about all the things that happened tonight. It was really different. "Why has Chanyeol been acting so weird lately? And why do I feel the need to find out all I can about who he is interested in?" I spoke out loud. 

"Maybe you like him?" Hyemi says walking into my room and plopping down on my bed. 

"Ani! I know now why!" I said sitting up. 

"Well lets hear what you "think" the reason is." Hyemi doesn't understand our relationship. 

"We're only friends, Hyemi.. But!! I'm sure it's because I want to help. I want to know what girl wouldn't want to be in a relationship with him." I brought my fingers to my mouth to chew on my nail. 

"You really think that's why don't you?" Hyemi rolled her eyes. "Jihyun, you are so innocent. How does it make you feel when he wraps his arms around you? How does it make you feel when he says nice things to you? What do you feel when he talks to you about this girl he likes? How do you really feel?" 

"When he spoke about it tonight it made me feel a little upset.. But that's only because how can she not like him? He's the nicest, most thoughtful, caring person I know. It doesn't make sense to me." I replied. 

"Your reasoning... I really can't take it anymore. YOU'RE THE GIRL HE LIKES! Listen to yourself. You don't want a relationship with him, all you say is 'We're friends! We're friends!' He doesn't want to ruin your friendship because you get embarrassed when he gives you compliments, so how do you think you would react if he told you he liked you? You would ignore him? Avoid his calls? Act like you aren't available? You think he's joking when he says it hurts him when you ignore him, and he tries to play it off like a joke but it's not. We all know that. Aish. I'm leaving.. You're really too much right now." Hyemi stomped out of my room slamming the door behind her. 

"Why is she being like this?" I say under my breath. Just as I'm about to lay back I hear someone close the front door. It has to be Sohyun so I run to the livingroom. 

"Eonnie! How did the night go? Did you have a nice date?" I ask bouncing all around her waiting for answers. 

"Jihyun! Why are you so hyper?? Let me get comfortable and I'll meet you back in here to tell you all about it." She laughed

"Don't take forever, Eonnie! I'm dying to know how the night went!" 

Sohyun came back in the living room in her panda pajamas and told us all about her marvelous evening with Oppa Suho. She gushed about every little thing he said and every thing he did. I couldn't help but smile at her because she was glowing so brightly with joy. 

"He asked if I would want to do that again. I accepted of course, and now we have each others number and he's planning on texting me!" Sohyun was so excited I couldn't help but laugh. 

"Oh Eonnie! I'm so jealous! When will I ever find someone who makes me smile and glow like you??" I laughed. 

"Chanyeol-ah makes you laugh. You two make each other glow. It would seem you've already found it. But you don't want to accept it." Hyemi bluntly responded to my question. 

"Oh? What is going on here?" Sohyun asks curiously. 

"Ani! Hyemi-ah stop pushing him off on me! We're just friends. Why can't anyone understand this?!' I stormed off to my room slamming the door behind me. I could hear them talking in the livingroom. Hyemi was talking about her suspicions and how she and Lay both agreed there was something between us. After a little while it got quiet. I rolled over and pretended to be asleep for I could hear foot steps approaching my room. Light from the hallway creeped into the room and

I could see Sohyun's silhouette on my wall. A few seconds later she was gone. 

I waited for at least an hour to pass before getting back up. I couldn't sleep at all. So I decided to take a walk to the store nearby to get some banana milk. The walk was mostly to clear my head and the banana milk was just for my own pleasure. When I got to the store there was only one other person there, other than us two and the clerk the place was completely empty. I didn't pay any attention to who it was, it was most likely a complete stranger. As I reached out to open the freezer door to get my drink a hand was already on the handle about to open it. 

"Oh, I'm sorry!" I bowed in apology 

I heard a small chuckle. "There's no need to apologize, Jihyun-ssi, right?" 

"What?? How do you know.." I looked up to find Henry standing in front of me smiliing. 

"We work together, of course." He laughed. 

"Sorry, I thought you were a stranger. It frightened me a little at first. What are you doing here so late?" I asked trying hard to not show my embarrassment. I use to have the biggest crush ever on him. I've not ever really had the chance to meet him though because he is always so busy with schedules and our schedules never match up with his. I remembe I once asked Manager Boyoung if a collaboration with him was possible and she told me that I needed to focus on Vixen and promoting more and that Henry was a very successful Idol and had many schedules. Basically that he didn't have time. 

"I couldn't sleep?" He chuckled again. 

"Me either. When I can't sleep I usually come here. But it's been awhile with all the practice I'm usually out as soon as my head hits the pillow." I laugh

"Me too. it must have just been meant to be that I meet you here tonight." He joked. "Are you going straight back home? I was gonna go for a short walk, if you aren't busy it would be nice to have a little company." 

"Ani! i'm not busy!" I blurted out causing him to laugh. 

"Well let me see your milk, I'll pay for it with mine since they have a buy one get one half off sale right now." He smiled as I handed him my milk. 

After he paid for it we walked to the park and picked a picnic table to sit at. 

"I've seen you around the building. You're a member of Vixen, yeah?" Henry said making a small opening in the aluminum. 

"Ne, I asked Manager if I could do a collab with you but she said no." I frowned. Still makes me a little sad. 

"Really? She should have talked with my Manager or myself personally. i'm very open to do collabs." 
His smile is that of an angel's. So beautiful and warm.. 

"Omo! Really?? i'm going to have words with her tomorrow. I really wanted that. Do you think we could do a collab sometime?" I asked immediately wishing I could take it back. 

"I think we can work something out. I'm not too busy with schedules right now, are you available tomorrow?" He looked at me. I can't believe I'm sitting here with Henry. 

"Ne! I can! What time should we meet up??" I ask. Aish.. someone should really slap me right now. I can't keep my cool around him. 

"I'll be there at 6 in the morning. Just come by sometime before 12, okay?" 

"Can I have your number, oppa?" He looked surprised by me calling him 'oppa'. I can't believe I just called him that. I seriously shouldn't be allowed to be alone with him. He pulled a pen out of his pocket and asked for my hand and proceeded to write it on my hand. 

 

"There!" He looked proud of his work. It was the cutest thing ever watching him write his name and then his number and smile at my hand like it was a masterpiece. 

"Don't lose that number. Quick write it in your phone so it doesn't smear so much youcan't read the numbers" 
I laughed maybe too hard. 

"Ne, I'll put it in my phone right now." 

I saved his number in my. I'm such a fan of his that I actually saved it as 'H<3'. The 'H' is because sometimes Chanyeol looks through my phone and I could easily make up a quick lie for it. After saving it I sent him a text saying: "Now you have my number too! Save it quickly before it smears and you can't read all the numbers. ㅋㅋㅋ -J" 

"I have to go soon. Can I walk you home?" 

"Ne. I need to be getting home also." I said noticing the time. 

On the way to my dorms we talked more about ourselves. He told me about how exhausting it was making his solo debut, but how happy he was to have made it this far. When we arrived to my front door he gave me quick side hug and a goodnight and waited for me to go inside. 

Once inside I collapsed to the floor. Was this all real. If I wake up and it was all just a dream I will cry myself to sleep for days. After finally recovering I picked myself up and went to my room. My body was so exhausted I knew falling asleep was no longer going to be a problem. 

 I wake up to the sound of my alarm going off. "ANI! It's 5:30 already?!?!" almost as soon as the words escaped my mouth I shot up remembering that I was doing a collab with Henry. I looked at my hand to make sure it wasn't just a dream and there mostly smeared now was his handwriting. I got up and ran into

Sohyun's room, 

"Eonnie! Eonnie! you'll never guess what happened last night! OMO! I have to tell you! WAKE UP!" i jumped on her bed until she finally agreed to get up. 

"What? What? What happened last night after YOU WENT TO BED??" She was clearly a little grumpy from the rude awakening. 

"Ani! I couldn't sleep last night so I went for banana milk like I use to and guess who was there the same time i was!! OMO! Guess Eonnie Guess!" 

"Yah! Why are you making so much noise Jihyun-ah!?" Hyemi came storming in. 

"I don't know! Please just tell me.." Sohyun still grouchy

"HENRY! It was Henry! He bought my milk for me! And then we went to the park and hung out for a little bit and he gave ME HIS NUMBER! OMO! Eonnie... I have Oppa's number! Do you remember when I used to talk about him all the time?? Ahh! I had the biggest crush on him!" I gushed rolling all over Sohyun and her bed. 

"Aish! 'Use to have a big crush on him'  yeah, sure you 'use' to. It's evident that you still have it."  Hyemi rolled her eyes. 

"Jihyun-ah! What did I tell you about going out alone late at night? If you wanted banana milk you should have woke one of us to walk with you! Seriously, you don't ever think of the dangers a girl could encounter walking these streets alone..." suddenly I realized nobody was excited about it at all. Hyemi just rolled her eyes and walked away and Sohyun is just going to scold me until I leave her sight.

"Arasso Eonnie." I hung my head and left her room without hearing the rest of her speech. I didn't even get to tell them the best part. When suddenly my phone lit up. 

H<3: 

"Jihyun, I just arrived at the studio. Feel free to join me whenever you wake. :) -H" 

 

My first text from Henry! I couldn't really get myself to get over Hyemi and Sohyun. But I went and took a shower and got ready. I knew that once I was with Henry I would forget all about this morning. 

I left the dorm without telling Sohyun where I was going or that I was even going anywhere. We had the day off today so I didn't have to worry about having to finish up quickly. When I arrived Henry greeted me warmly and motioned for me to take a seat. 

"You seem a little quiet this morning.. Not a morning person?" Henry looked a little concerned. 

"Ani, just Eonnie was harsher than usual with her scolding this morning." I said looking down at my cup of hot tea. 

"Oh. Well by the end of the day you'll have forgotten all about it!" He smiled
I smiled in return and shook my head. He's right. We started off with putting a few lyrics down and making a chorus. A couple hours pass when someone comes in the room. 

Hyung are you free? Leeteuk hyung said you didn't have any schedules today." 
The voice I recognized immediately. "Chanyeol-ah!" I said turning around in my chair.

"J-Jihyun! What are you doing here??" he looked so surprised. it had to have caught him by surprise. He also knows how I feel about Henry.

"We're writing a song together!" I couldn't contain my smile. 

"Ne, we're going to do a collab. But ne, other than this I have no other schedules today. Do you need something?" Henry said still looking over the lyric sheet.

"Ani... hyung, can I listen in?" Chanyeol wasn't even smiling. That's a little strange for him. He's always smiling and I thought he would be happy for me. 

"Ne. If you want to. We're really not doing much right now, but it's okay with me if you hang out for awhile." Henry said looking up from the lyric sheet. 

Chanyeol came in and pulled a chair in between us. Immediately talking to Henry about random stuff. After an hour passed I couldn't take it no more and asked Chanyeol to walk with me to get a drink. He agreed. As soon as we got far enough away from the studio he started to speak. 

"Jihyun, why are you here alone with him?" Chanyeol asked "You didn't think to tell me before that you had made this arrangment?" 

"I didn't know that I needed to tell you about everything that I do and plan to do." I replied inserting a couple of coins into the drink machine. 

[Chanyeol's POV] 
 "I didn't say you had to tell me everything... it's just.. It's Henry.." I know I could never compete with him for Jihyun's heart. Next to him I don't even exist. 

"It just happened last night. I didn't have this planned out for weeks and just not tell you." She said, as if that was really any better. 

"Last night? You met up with him last night?" 

"Ne, we were at the park talking an..." 

"I really don't care about your night out with him, Jihyun! When you go back to him be sure to tell him that something came up and I had other things to attend to." 

"Yah! Why are you being like this?? And what other things do you have to do? You said you had no schedules for today either!" 

[Jihyun's POV] 
Why is he being like this? What is with everyone today? i'll just text him later to see why he's acting so out of the ordinary. 

"Ah! Jihyun, I have to go somewhere for now. But I'll text you again the next time I have some free time." Henry said looking at his phone. 

"O-Okay. I'll see you later then.." I slumped down in my chair. 

"See ya!" Henry grabbed his coat and out the door he went. 

"That's just perfect... everyone has left me." I spoke out. 

I really didn't feel like seeing anyone so I shut my phone off and decided to take a walk. I didn't know where I was headed but I know I wasn't ready to turn around yet. I walked for two.. three hours before having to sit down for a break. I brought enough money for a meal and a couple drinks. I had no other plans.
I found a nice clearing through the woods that was quiet and secluded where I leaned against a rock and fell asleep. When I woke up it was dark. "Aish.. I didn't mean to sleep here. Where am I even?" I said. 
I my phone.. 'No signal'.

"Ani! What should I do? I think I came from this direction."

I started to walk into the woods. After an hour passed my phone started to go off from all the messages that were coming in. How could I care though? So I walked for another 30 minutes before my phone started to ring. 
I just looked at it and continued to walk. As I was walking I started to get an uneasy feeling in my stomach. I stopped to look around. There was nobody following me that I could see, so I continued to walk. 

*stick breaks* 

I look back again. I'm almost certain I heard something. 
 

*another stick breaks* 

A shiver runs up my spine and I come to a complete stop. "I-Is there someone there?" I say.. No reply. 
After a few seconds of silence I decide to walk again. This time at a much faster pace. When yet again I hear the snapping of twigs following behind me. This time I don't turn around. Every fiber in my body tells me to run and run fast. At this point I have no idea where I am or where I'm going. It's too dark to see anything and I keep tripping. i can still hear something behind me and when I look back I can see the silhouette of a man. 

I trip and fall down a small hill. I stay on the ground scooting back against a tree. I turn on the lock screen and shine my phone around in the dark trying to see if anyone is nearby. My heart is racing so hard and there are no more sounds around me. I must have lost them somewhere in in between picking up the pace and falling down this hill. I look around and realize that I have no clue where I am. Tears begin rolling down my face. "How long while I be stuck out here?" I think to myself. My phone suddenly lights up and begins to ring very loudly. Having forgotten all about it I fumble to silence the sound from fear that whoever was following me would come back. I push the answer button without even looking to see who it is. 

"Hello?" I whisper into the phone. 

"JIHYUN! I GOT THROUGH TO YOU! WHERE ARE YOU?? YOU HAD ME WORRIED SICK! ARE YOU OKAY?? LET ME COME SEE YOU!" Chanyeol practically shouts into the phone.

I begin to weep loudly in relief to hear his voice. "Oppa! I don't know where I am. I fell asleep in a meadow and I woke and it is dark! I'm so scared and I think someone is following." I try to quiet my voice. 

"What?! Are you just messing with me because I got upset with you?" 

"Ani! I don't know what to do." I cry into the phone. 

Suddenly when I'm on the phone I hear foot steps getting closer and closer at a fast pace. I jump to my feet immediately. 

"Hello?" the footsteps stop. "why are you following me? what do you want?" 

The footsteps begin to get closer again. without hesitation I start to back up and run in the opposite direction of the footsteps. I can hear Chanyeol on the phone freaking out trying to get me to reply. When I finally get far enough away that it feels safe to talk again. Tears still pouring down my face. I explain to him in what direction I walked and how far. He made me stay on the phone with him. I continued walking and answering Chanyeol's questions. 
It was so dark around me I couldn't see anything and now my phone is dying. My knee begins to throb where I can only assume there is a cut. I grow more and more tired until I finally collapse from exhaustion.
