lee heeseung, the junior in college. highly intelligent and has a very high iq. he is very mature for his age which is part of the reason why he doesn't associate himself with people from school.

heeseung is very kept to himself. he doesn't like sharing feelings or talking, and he has his reasons why.

heeseung is like that mysterious boys you see in movies. except, you don't get to know him because he's the most difficult person to ever approach. and every time some one has tried to approach him, it goes down hill.

heeseung is a very good looking guy. people do agree on that topic. here and there you'll just hear; "oh yeah he is very attractive, but it's his personality that makes everything worse."

heeseung knows that a lot of people don't like him due to his personality. did he care though? no. no he didn't. he wouldn't even think about it once. he can careless about what others think about him.

"dude he's a weirdo..a creep! if i were you..i wouldn't let my sister around him." whispered jay to jake while sunghoon and other jocks agreed as they eyed jina and heeseung making their way to their ISS class.

jake began to feel bothered about what his friends were saying about the boy his younger sister was with. he had to talk to her. but jake didn't know how. he didn't want to make jina mad since she's already mad at him.

"i think photography is so cool! i once tried it and well i'm not that good...but it's fun." said jina as she carefully looked at heeseungs camera, "what do you like taking pictures of?" questioned jina.

"i like taking pictures of...areas of the school, the gardens, animals, and just anywhere or whatever i see that's beautiful enough to be captured.." said heeseung as he got back his camera.

"that's nice! someday if you're ever gonna go take pictures can i come? i'd like to see your ideas and stuff." requested jina.

"good idea. also, if you want, someday you can stop by my dorm and see my work. i think you'll like some of the ones i have." explained heeseung as a small smile appeared on his face.

jina squinted her eyes, "i think i know what you mean lee heeseung." she said as a small smirk appeared on her lips,

heeseung and jina entered the classroom greeting mister jin. the two sat down and began to talk, "how was your lunch?" questioned heeseung as he took out his drawing supplies.

"it was fun, niki is so funny." chuckled jina, "him and sunoo were fighting over chips and he bit sunoos finger...like really hard."

heeseung slightly chuckled, "jeez, i've seen that kid in the hall...he's...something." said heeseung as he began to sketch into his sketchbook.

"five, six, seven, eight!" exclaimed the dance instructor as she clapped her hands. her dance team began their lyrical routine.

as time passed the instructor couldn't help but notice a dancer making a mistake, "STOP! stop!"

the dancers stopped and were out of breath, "guys! remember it's one and two! not one two...it's fast! that part is fast! okay, take a break guys and we'll come back to this in a bit." instructed the dance teacher as she made her way into her office.

yoon sighed as she made her way over to her bag and took out a water bottle, "hey yoon! will you be able to cheer at the game on friday?" questioned a dancer named sieun.

"oh! yeah, and after...we're sleeping over at my house right?" said yoon as she raised an eyebrow.

"yes! oh my god, im so excited to see your house, it's probably huge!" said a girl named j with excitement as the other girls; seeun, sieun, and chaeyoung(isa) agreed.

yoon chuckled, "it's a nice house...but yes..im sure we'll have a lot of fun,"

"of course!"

before yoon could speak the dance instructor spoke up, "alright girls let's get practicing! start from the beginning!"

yoon made it to her spot and prepared to begin her choreography. the music started and yoon danced away. yoon always loved how dancing made her feel. she loved the feeling of feeling her body express itself in ways she never thought she would be able to express it in.

dance was yoons life. she didn't know what she'd do without it.

when practice finished yoon day in the locker room and began to change into a fresh set of clothes after showering. suddenly she began to overhear conversations that were going on between some of the girls on the dance team.

"oh my god, did you see that weirdo heeseung with that new student sim jina?"

"ugh yeah.."

"wasn't surprised, they're both troublemakers."

"why do they even go here, they should be like at a boarding school."

"sim jina is a horrible person, i cant believe her parents are like sweet billionaires."

"didn't her parents die?"

"tsh...no wonder why she acts the way she is.."

yoon felt her hand clench into a fist. her jaw clenched tightly and it looked like flames were erupting out of her ears and nostrils. yoon wanted to say something, but she didn't want to get in trouble or be kicked off the dance team if she became aggressive.

yoon missed her little sister. she missed joking around with her and talking to her. the energy at the house felt so low without her it made yoon and her twin brother miss having their little sister.

later that day, jina and heeseung exited out of the school campus and began making their way towards the dorms.

as the two were walking along under an umbrella talking about their ISS almost ending they suddenly bumped into bahiyyih and jungwon, "oh! jina!"

"oh...hi guys.." said jina as a small smile formed on her face.

"we we're actually looking for you!" said jungwon as bahiyyih nodded, "yeah! we want to know if on the night of the football game if you'd want to come to my house for a movie night and sleepover?"

jina's eyes widened as she turned to an awkward looking heeseung, "oh...hiyyih...i would love to..but..i already made plans with uh..hees-"

"oh! no...j-jina..don't bother...you can go.." interrupted heeseung feeling bad.

"but i promised to-"

"jina im sure that will be better th-"

"you can come along if you want!" interrupted bahiyyih suddenly causing heeseung and jina to stop arguing. jungwons eyes widened and he made a shocked face.

"o-oh...heeseung...wanna go then?" questioned jina as she slightly tilted her head. heeseung bit the inside of his cheek as his eyes wandered around.

"uhm..l-let me think about it.." said heeseung with a small nod. jina slightly nodded and sent a soft smile to the boy.

"cool! let me know!" said bahiyyih as she flashed the two a wide and sweet smile.

jina and heeseung began walking, "sorry if i was awkward....i don't get along well with her brother." spoke up heeseung.

"don't apologize..i'm sorry that happened..i know you don't really like interacting with a lot of people i shouldn't have brought you into that.." said jina with worry in her voice.

heeseung slightly shook his head, "no it's fine...anyways, i- i don't know...maybe...i'll go.."

jina followed behind heeseung entering his dorm, "if we go...maybe if it's too much for you we can just take the train back to school since it's not far from her house,"

"yeah..sounds cool.." said heeseung with a small nod.

"wait but what about her brother? are you sure you're gonna want to go?" questioned jina as she raised an eyebrow.

heeseung slightly frowned, "mm..i-i'll figure something out.." mumbled heeseung as he placed his things down.

jina followed heeseung into his living room, "need anything? like water?"

jina shook her head, "no i'm fine..thanks though,"

heeseung nodded as he made his way over to his room to collect a collage of pictures he's taken. jina began to walk around the boys living room looking at his pictures.

suddenly a certain picture caught her eye. it was heeseung with an award with his dad, an old man, and...

"dad?" mumbled jina to herself.

heeseung suddenly approached jina, "oh yeah...your dad...h-he...was my dads best friend.."

"w-what? i never knew about this..." said jina as she picked up the photo, "i-is this picture taken here? at fallen angel academy?"

"yeah, my senior graduation...y-your dad was always at the school...he was vice principal...don't you remember?" said heeseung as he raised an eyebrow at jina who's face was full of confusion.

"w-what? h-he was vice principal?" questioned the girl as she looked at the picture. heeseung grew confused.

"heeseung...my dad...never really told me...about his..occupation n stuff...he always kept that part of him...a secret." explained jina as many thoughts began to run through her head.

"o-oh...well-"

"heeseung...tell me more...please!" begged jina as she held the boys sleeve. heeseung was caught by surprise but he nodded.

"um okay well...let's just...sit down first.." he said awkwardly as he led the girl to the couch. jina and heeseung sat next to each other and she stared at the boy waiting for him to speak.

"um well...i don't know where to start..my dad told me that he met your dad here at fallen angel academy in highschool..." he explained, "um..and they've been best friends ever since. uh..your dad began working with his dad...which is helping out with schools...but the school your dad was always involved was fallen angel academy.."

jina slowly nodded taking in the new information, "and...that old man in the picture..that's..your grandpa...your dads dad. so..you're grandpa was principal...and he made your dad vice principal."

"oh my god...i-i can't believe dad..or even my mom told me...about this stuff...i wonder why he never bothered...telling me or bringing me here.." said jina as her face scrunched in confusion.

"hm..i-i don't know...i mean...hed always mention his kids. he loved you and your siblings so much. he was always so happy talking about you guys. he would say that he wanted to bring you guys here but...he always said that there were complications." explained heeseung.

"what do you mean?"

heeseung shrugged, "i'm not sure what his complications were...but i only remember when it was my freshman year of college the principal passed away. and well...your dad was going to be principal...and he was going to offer my dad the spot of vice principal...but...well..." heeseung trailed off looking down.

jina realized what heeseung was getting to, "it's okay." she reassured.

heeseung nervously gulped, "and well...your dad passed away..and they had-"

"his step brother...professor minhyuk become principal." interrupted jina. heeseung nodded.

"what about your dad? does he work for the school?" questioned jina as she raised an eyebrow.

heeseung sharply inhaled and slightly winced, "oh um...m-my dad..passed away..."

jina's heart dropped listening to those words come out of heeseung, "yeah, two days after your dad passed away...he had a really bad...heart attack...and he didn't make it.." finished off heeseung.

"oh my god...heeseung...i-im so sorry about that...b-but what about your mom?" 

"oh...my mom uh...when i was thirteen...she um...passed away with cancer...but i'm just glad that..she's not suffering...cause it was pretty bad. and...it comforts me knowing that my parents are now together in another world.." said heeseung with a small smile.

jina frowned, "heeseung...im so sorry..that you've had to go through that..."

heeseung shook his head, "no no, don't worry jina. i've you know...recovered."

jina nodded, "yeah...i know what you mean." said the girl as she looked at the boy with such a sorry look. suddenly a wave of emotions overcame her. she suddenly felt herself engulf the boy in a hug.

heeseungs eyes widened and his heart began to beat rapidly. he's never hugged anyone if god knows how long. the last female he hugged was his mother. jina's warmth spread through out heeseungs body sending him so much comfort.

heeseung hugged back tightly and a small smile crept up on his lips.

later that day, heeseung and jina were sitting on the floor looking through his photo albums of his photography work after trauma dumping their lives onto each other.

"OH MY GOD! is that a blue morpho?!" exclaimed jina as she looked at the picture of the butterfly with beautiful bright blue wings.

"yeah...i was...sixteen when i took that. my dad and i went on a trip to mexico and...blue morphos were there and i had to take pictures." explained heeseung as he took a bite of his pizza.

"these are beautiful shots heeseung...you're amazing!" complimented jina as she looked through the rest of the butterfly pictures. heeseung smiled widely at the girls compliment.

"oh my god! the zebra longwing! so gorgeous!"

heeseung couldn't help but feel happy seeing someone finally appreciating his work. his dad did enjoy his work, but heeseung loved the feeling that it was someone different complimenting his work.

"have any of you guys...talked to jina?" questioned aunt luna interrupting the silence.

jake and yoon looked at each other with serious but nervous looks. aunt luna looked at the twins with looks of disappointment.

"seriously?" she questioned, "you know...the both of YOU! i remember when the three of you were little...you guys cared for jina so much. like...you guys would suddenly go crazy if she tripped. now, it's like you guys don't mind her dealing with her own pain. i cant believe you guys turned out like this. i am disappointed in the two of you. VERY disappointed." ranted out aunt luna as she got up and left the dining room.

jake and yoon stared down at their plates blankly. their throats tightened and both of their eyes became watery. yoon suddenly stood up and left to his room leaving jake alone in the dining room. he felt a tear trickle down his cheek.

he felt like aunt luna wasn't wrong. she knew that they had to do something. jake wanted to make things right. he always does. he felt like tomorrow he should have a talk with his younger sister.

jake got up from the table and began to walk walk towards his room, but suddenly he stopped when he saw the basement door slowly opening.

jake eyed the door and looked around seeing if anyone else was there as a witness. but he saw no one. he let out a shaky breath and started to slowly walk over to the door.

jake grabbed the door handle and slowly opened the door to see if anyone were there. but no, it was just a dark stairway that led to the basement. the curious boy turned on the light and began to walk down the stairs.

"ive never been in here before.." jake mumbled to himself nervously. jake had a habit of talking to himself whenever he became nervous.

jake made it downstairs and he looked around the large basement full of boxes, old artifacts, and other type of old house item things. jakes eyes widened seeing that the basement was full of objects.

"woah..." jake whispered seeing a family portrait. jake wiped off the collected dust and there he saw aunt luna, his grandfather, grandmother, and..

"mom.." whispered jake as a small soft smile crept up on his lips. jake began to look around the basement and suddenly a certain box caught his eye. this box was small, wooden, and had a name carved in it.

he wiped off the dust and the box had the name 'jake'

jake raised an eyebrow as he unclipped the lock and slowly opened it. there laid a paper with writing on it,
dear jake,
a gift for my first grandson.

love, grandpa

10/02/04

"hm.." jake hummed as a small smile appeared on his face. he moved the paper away and there he saw a beautiful old fashioned rectangular copper lighter. he picked it up and observed the gorgeous detailed designs.

it looked like there were water designs, fire designs, swirls that looked like represented air, and earth like designs such as trees and rocks.

jake opened it and pressed the button. the spark wheel flicked and a flame appeared. the boy smiled with satisfaction and happiness. he was never close to his grandparents and receiving this made him feel like they actually cared.

jake put his lighter in his pocket and closed the box. he looked up and there he saw two more boxes. he stood up and looked at them. he saw that they had named engraved in them as well one saying; 'jina'
and one saying; 'yoon'

jake grabbed the two boxes and made his way out of the basement. he ran up stairs and laid yoons box outside of her door. then, jake made his way towards jina's room. he entered her room and he laid the box on her bed.

jake then made it to his room. he laid the box on his dresser and made his way towards his bed. jake laid under his covers and let out a deep sigh as his eyes started to become heavy. he then fell into a deep sleep.
