As you didn't hear anything after a while, you assumed they left, so you quickly got up, opened the door and slowly looked outside but then you looked into seven sorry faces which lit up as they saw you.

You sighed out of relief and let out another sob.

"Y/n...", Riki walked towards you and slowly took your hands into his, "we're really sorry and we'll make it up to you, I promise!"

"Yeah, we all promise!", Heeseung added and you had to smile.

You shook your head and collected your thoughts as they all looked at you. "Just... just stay away from her and never fall for someone like her again..."

Riki said: "Done and done. You're way more important and better than anyone else out there."

You couldn't deny the butterflies in your stomach as he said that and continued to hold your hands. You couldn't wait any longer and just pulled him closer by his hands, let go off them and hugged him. He gladly hugged you back and put one of his hands at your head and holding you close.

Your heart was beating so fast, you didn't care about him feeling that though, you were just glad to be in his arms.

"Ayyy, don't leave us out~", Jay said and joined the hug as the others did too then.

You couldn't deny your relief and excitement to be back with your friends.

They hurt you but you got it in a way, many people fall for fake ass people like Naohiro, it was like a disease, it didn't matter how many vaccinations and precautions you'd take, you can still catch it.

The seven of them stayed at your room for the rest of the day.

After a bit you said: "I'm surely the laughing stock of the uni now... right?"

Riki looked at you in confusion as if he wasn't with you the same day you got pushed into the pool.

"What?", you asked.

He slightly chuckled: "You haven't seen the videos yet, have you...?"

"Well, no but I saw all the phones pointed at me as I got out of the pool... so I'm sure there were many great videos.", you rolled your eyes at that thought.

Jay asked: "So you really haven't seen them?"

You shook your head and looked at him in confusion.

"Well-", the boys exchanged looks and Riki sat next to you. "Are you sure you want to see one?"

You looked at him, bit your lip and looked away, you weren't sure whether you actually wanted to relive that embarrassing moment or not.

"Well, let me show you this...", Riki continued, took out his phone, leaned away from you, did something on his phone and then showed you a video.

You looked at him and then at the phone, got it and watched whatever was going on. In the video you could see and hear the people laughing as you just left the property but the story didn't end like that. Riki walked towards Naohiro and was pissed: "What the fuck is wrong with you?? What did you do that for??"

Naohiro just laughed: "They deserved that. Come on, as if you seriously care about that kid?"

"Yeah, in fact I do!", he rolled up his sleeves and came closer to her.

"We all do!", Heeseung added.

Naohiro rolled her eyes and chuckled: "You guys really are as stupid as you look. I had you so easily wrapped around my fingers, so apparently y/n was never that important to you anyways."

"Oh won't you just shut up??", Riki pushed her into the pool and looked to the people around them, "and will you stop filming?? Seriously, get a life!"

And so, Riki took back his phone and bit his lip. "So... now you know what happened after..."

You couldn't help but to smile and quickly hug him from the side, hold him close and close your eyes.

"Thank you!" Riki was a little flustered but put his arms around you as he slightly chuckled.
