"So...is there anyone you like?" her best friend asked.
"No." She answered quickly.
"Really? No one?"
"I'm not really focusing on boys right now, Taeyeon." 
Her friend laughed, "It's okay to like someone."
"Well, right now there's no one."

The boy stared her with a pokerface, pointing. 
"You're Taeyeon's friend right?"
_____, weirded out by the boy, stared back. "Uh...yes."
Taeyeon finally appeared out of no where, throwing her arms around Baekhyun's shoulders.
"You two have finally met!"
Baekhyun's faced suddenly brightened, smiling at her. He held his hand out to _____, "I'm Baekhyun."

"Oh dang! You two are cute!" Chanyeol shouted.
"Are you two secretly dating or what?" Jongdae asked. "What a weird Halloween."
"No! We just happened to arrive like Mickey and Minnie Mouse!" Taeyeon reasoned.
"Whatever!" "BS!" Tao and Sehun shouted.
"I still think something's up with those two." Luhan muttered.
"Why?" _____ questioned.
"Just a hunch."
"Come on. They're just really good friends."
They are, right?

"These are like the masks that the Jabbawockeez wear." Baekhyun commented, painting his mask.
"It does, somewhat." _____ agreed. She swung and whipped her brush to create a splatter effect on her mask. She looked at her mask. "Well, I'm done."
"Really? Let me see." He said. She showed him her mask. "Whoa. How did you do the splatter effect?"
_____ laughed a little. "Really Baek?"
"I'm serious." He defended.
"You just swing and whip your brush."
"You do it for me."
"Oh my god." She laughed some more, taking his mask. She helped splatter paint on his mask. "There."
"Put more on there."
She smiled, shaking her head.

"Hmmm. So You and Baekhyun, huh." Chanyeol commented.
"Shut up. We're just friends."
Chanyeol lead out a loud laugh. "You two were totally flirting."
"Were not."
"Were too." Chanyeol smiled, wiggling his eyebrows. _____ glared at him. "Okay, okay. I'll shut up now."

Kid ahjumma: Who are you taking to the Christmas dance?
Me: I'm not sure. I might not even go.
Kid ahjumma: What?! Noooooo~ you have to go.
Kid ahjumma: I'll force and drag you.
Me: LOL
Kid ahjumma: So no one in mind? There are lots of guys you can choose from.
Me: See this is why I've stayed away from guys. Distracting me from my paper. 
Kid ahjumma: LOL
Me: But if I was to ask someone, I don't know. Maybe Baekhyun?
Kid ahjumma: Oh lol
Me: Honestly though, like I said, I might not even go.
Kid ahjumma: Oh, you're going. I'm dragging you there.

"Okay. If I win, I'll do anything you ask me to do." He challenged, a bowling ball in his hands.
"But I don't even want to play, Baekhyun. I'm don't care if you win or I do."
"Come on, _____! Just one game."
She sighed, "Fine, one game."

After ten rounds, _____ had emerged victorious.
"But you didn't even want to play!" Baekhyun whined.
"I don't even know how I won. I at bowling."_____ reasoned.
"You did awesome, _____!" Everyone cheered.
"Good job, _____." Taeyeon said.
She smiled as everyone congratulated her.
"Thanks everyone."

"Whoa. Where'd you get the flowers?" _____ asked.
"Eh...Baekhyun." Taeyeon answered.

No...what?

"So who are you planning to ask to the dance, _____?" Chanyeol asked.
"Ever so nosey, Park Chanyeol."
"Why yah gotta pronounce my whole name?"
"Because I want to instill fear in you."
Chanyeol frowned playfully, "Why so grouchy?"
"I don't want to talk about it."
"It's better to express your feelings." Another voice said.
Both looked and saw Luhan walking toward them.
"Too bad then. I'd rather keep things to myself. Private or not."
"Keep what to yourself?" Luhan says, as he takes a seat.
"Nothing." she answer quickly.
Luhan stares suspiciously and brushes the topic away with a shrug. He takes out material to study for exams.
"Are we going to study?" Chanyeol asks eagerly.
"Yeah." Luhan answers.
"I think I'm love with Baekhyun." She suddenly announced.
Chanyeol dropped the headphones he was about to pull out of his backpack. Luhan raised an eyebrow.
"What?" The both of them asked.
"Oh lord. I knew it." Chanyeol said, looking up at the ceiling and praying to whoever.
"But he's---"
"I know." She cut off Luhan, sighing deeply. "I know."
Luhan stood suddenly up. Both Chanyeol and _____ looked at him. Luhan was staring at her intently.
"Will you go to the Christmas dance with me instead?"
Chanyeol's mouth dropped open, looking wide-eyed between Luhan and _____. was opened a little, confused on how to say no.

_____ was hanging out with the boys in their usual spot on campus, waiting for two missing friends. The boys were waiting for the missing Baekhyun. Taeyeon and _____ were going to hang out, so she was waiting for Taeyeon with the boys. Yixing ran to them, having gone to the bathroom awhile ago.
"Holy unicorns you guys."
"What?"
"I just saw---"
"Hey guys!"
Yixing turned to look at who greeted them all. Everyone looked and saw Baekhyun and Taeyeon. Jongdae and Chanyeol gasped at what they saw. The rest of the boys' faces fell. _____ looked, her smile faltering. Baekhyun and Taeyeon were holding hands.
"Oh my god. Are you two---" Joonmyun started to say.
"Yes! Taeyeon and I are dating!" Baekhyun answered happily.
"Yah...stop being so happy about it." Taeyeon joked, a blush on her face. Her eyes connected with _____, remembering their plans. "_____! You still want to go shopping? Get me away from Baekhyun."
"Yah!" Baekhyun yelled.
"Uh, yeah. Sure. Let's go." She answered, forcing a smile.

"Hey."
_____ looked up from her study materials, seeing Taeyeon.
"Oh hey."
Taeyeon took a seat across from her.
"I haven't seen you in literally forever." She joked.
"Yeah. I've been studying for exams." _____ answered awkwardly.
Taeyeon's smiled faltered a little.
"Are you okay?"
"Hm?"
"You haven't been yourself lately."
"Y-yeah. I'm totally fine." She forced a smile.
"Sorry I've been MIA. Baekhyun is a demanding guy. I don't even know why I'm dating him." She joked.
"Oh. Really?" She said.
Taeyeon's forced smiled dropped again.
"Yah...tell me what's wrong. You're not yourself."
_____ sighed, looking at her friend.
"It's nothing. Really."
"When you want to tell, please don't hesitate to tell me. I'm here for you, _____."
She smiled at Taeyeon, "I will."
"I know! Let's go out for some patbingsu!" Taeyeon suggested.
"What? It's too cold to eat that though." _____ laughed.
"Come on, I'm trying to cheer you up."
"With my love, food? You're my best friend for a reason." _____ smiled. "How about shabu shabu?"
"If that's what you want, then let's go!"
_____ smiled at her friend, putting her things away in her backpack.

"Holy dang, _____!" Jongdae and Chanyeol exclaimed, seeing her and Luhan enter the dance together.
"Damn. You two look good together." Minseok commented. He faked a sob. "Are you cheating on me now, Lulu?"
Luhan looked at his friend, judging. "Stop playing."
"But we love each other so much~." He said, placing a kiss on Luhan's cheek. Minseok laughed like a little child and then ran off.
"_____!" She heard Taeyeon's voice.
Taeyeon ran over, dragging a Baekhyun by the arm toward them.
"Hi." _____ greeted.
"So you and Luhan, huh?"
"We're attending as friends." both Luhan and _____ explained at the same time.
"So in sync already." Baekhyun said. "You sure you two aren't dating? I mean that's what you all said about me and Taeyeon."
"We're both just friends." _____ assured.

ℓℓℓ

"Yah! But why me?" _____ hissed.
"Because Taeyeon got drunk too. She was suppose to take him home. Jessica and Tiffany already came to pick her up." Chanyeol answered.
"But you live with him."
"But I'm still at this party. If I leave him alone, who knows what's going to happen to him. Taeyeon's going to kill me if he's gone missing by tomorrow. Please. You're leaving the party too."
"You owe me."
"Thank you thank you!" Chanyeol shouted, hugging her and spinning her around.
"Yah! Put me down."
"I probably won't be here that long. I just have to wait for the EXO-K members as they made me DD." Chanyeol explained.
"Alright. See you at campus tomorrow."

_____ carried a drunk Baekhyun into his room. She dumped his body in his bed, heaving from carrying him. She sighed, putting his blanket over him, tucking him in. She looked at him, chuckling to herself.
"Funny how life works. How you think you'll have everything in the world, but really, you don't. You'll never know how much I liked you, Bakehyun. The brief infatuation I had." She sighed, smiling sadly. "I think I still like you, but I'm sure I'll get over you. I hope I do."
She got up and left the room. Closing the door behind her, the front door opened, the EXO-K boys strolling in.
"Hi _____. Baekhyun's still knocked out?" Joonmyun asked.
"He is."
"Thanks for bringing him home. Can't believe he got drunk." Chanyeol said, dragging a drunk Sehun to his room.
"But I want to see _____~." Sehun slurred.
"I'm going now." She smiled. "Bye Sehunnie."
Sehun smiled with content before passing out.
"Alright. Bye. Thanks again."
"Bye."
She walked towards the front door, where she saw Kyungsoo with Jongin, who was leaning outside on the hallway opposite of the front door, crouching down and groaning. Kyungsoo waved at her before turning back to Jongin.
"Good bye Baekhyun." She said to herself, turning the corner of the hall toward the elevator. "Good bye."
