MARBLE #11

Like A Star[K.Will]

EunJi shut her locker, still in deep thought about yesterday's event. She let out a sigh, trying to arrange her thoughts. "Why the sigh?" A voice asked and EunJi jumped slightly out of shock while her leg shot out which was out of reflexes. 

Luhan quickly avoided her kick and let a sigh of relief. "I almost died there!" He shot her a playful glare. The Taekwondo Artist mumbled a small 'sorry' before turning the other way to get away from him. She was not ready to face him yet. 

Luhan quickly shot out his hand and wrapped his fingers around her wrist to stop her. "Woah. What's the rush?" He asked with a chuckle. "It's nothing," She quickly mumbled, shrugging of his hand lightly but he didn't let go. 

"It's about yesterday, isn't it?" He asked, almost inaudible. Eunji turned around to face him. "Lu-" "No," he said, cutting her off. "I...I don't want your answer yet." He said. "I know I have a higher chance of rejection and...I don't want those words to escape your lips, Eun. I'm...I'm not ready yet." He said sadly before walking off with his head hung low.

Guilt immediately bubbled in her. "Luhan..." She called but only sighed when he didn't stop. "Lu-" "Don't. Its useless going after him." A voice said from behind her, grabbing her arm to stop her from moving.

Eunji turned around a small smile slipped up her lips. "What should I do? I don't want to tell him straight in his face that I don't feel the same way, Minseok." The boy only shrugged.

"Then who do you like?" He asked. "I..." She thought hard but couldn't think of anyone. Anyone except for one. She opened to reply him but was interrupted once again by high-pitch cheering.

Eunji's head immediately snapped to the side. Girls were surrounding a group of boys but only one of them stood out. He was visible even from afar. His blond hair that seem to stand out from the rest. Him.

Her eyes continued following him. He had this mysterious aura around him that seemed to attract her. It looks as if he's keeping many secrets. He wasn't loud like the rest of his friend. He was a very cool person and very laid-back. And that was something Eunji admired about him. 

"It's him, isn't it?" Minseok asked, breaking her train of thoughts. She snapped her head towards him. "Sorry? What were you saying?" "It's him, am I right? It's Kris, right?"

Eunji rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly. "Yea..." "Wanna get close to him? I'll call him over an-" Eunji immediately panicked. "No! Don't! Seriously, don't." A sly smile was now on Minseok's lips. "Or else what?"

"Or else I'll kill you. You know how powerful a Taekwondo kick is right?" Minseok gulped. "Okay, I won't," he said before smirking at her. "But that doesn't mean that I can't escape from you!" With that, he ran off towards his group of friends and Kris was one of them.

Minseok was a soccer player in the school. He was the vice-captain and the captain was Luhan himself. Which meant that Minseok could run fast but Eunji was someone who could run fast too. Although she's a Taekwondo Artist, she needed to train her stamina and had decided to run. Kris was a basketball player. The captain of the basketball team to be exact. 

Eunji quickly ran after him, her heart pumping against her chest in anxiety. She quickly caught up with him by grabbing onto the back of his shirt. But it was too late already. The two were panting and gasping for air and Kris and the rest of his friends were staring at them.

"Did you two just run a marathon?" Kai asked with a raised brow. Eunji quickly stood up straight and fixed her hair and uniform. "No but I think Eunji had something to say to-" Minseok words were immediately cut off but Eunji who had slapped her hand over his mouth to shut him up.

Minseok continued trying to shout out the name 'Kris' but it was muffled by Eunji's hand. She quickly kicked him in his shin to shut him up and he immediately fell onto the ground, groaning in pain. 

His friends stared at them in both shock and confusion. Eunji quickly faked a smile at them and dragged Minseok up by his shirt. "We will get going now. So...uh..see you around?"

She immediately dragged Minseok away from them, scolding him along the way and kicking and punching him. Minseok only nodded his head and hissed in pain every now and then with his head hung low.

Baekhyun watched as the two fought and let out a sigh, the same time the be
