Chapter 3 | More Friends

         Luna starts her day as she walks out the housewWith her sketchpad pad held against her chest.


She saw a familiar face waiting for her just at the front of her house. "Sehun?!" She exclaimed when she saw the young boy's face.


"Good morning Luna!" Sehun greeted with a gleeful smile. She went to Sehun with a wondering look. "What are you doing here?" She asked. "Oh, about that! Well, I just decided that from now on I'll be accompanying you to school and on your way back to this house as well. " He stated as he wiggled his eyebrows.


"What?! Why?!" She asked in confusion. "So I could guard you better. I'm your guardian angel, remember?" Sehun gave her a warm smile and she can't help but to just stare at him dumbfounded.


"Are you serious?" she asked disbelievingly.
"Do I look like I'm kidding?" He replied in such determination on his voice.


"Well, uh maybe?" She answered unsurely as she gazes down on her feet not really knowing how to accept his sudden decision. But she knew in her heart that he was sincere.


"I'm really serious about this, I don't want you to get into any trouble again." His expression turned soft as he gave her an assuring small.


"Uh, does this mean that we are friends now?" Luna asked with a faint blush erupting on her pale face. She stared at Sehun, anticipating for his answer. "We're already friends silly!" Sehun exclaimed eye smiling at her as he ruffled her hair playfully.


"Really?!" Luna exclaimed in delight. Everything that's happening between her and Sehun was completely new to her. She felt overwhelmed but yet it felt like everything was alright.


"Really. Let's go." Sehun stated with a dazzling smile. He rode on his bike while gesturing Luna to sit at the back. But he realized that Luna was still standing beside him with her head hanging low. He heard her sniffle. She was crying.


"Luna, what's wr-" before he could even finish his question, Luna lifted her head and looked straight into Sehun's eyes. Tears streaming down her face, but it wasn't a sad one. It was tears of warmth and happiness. For the first time, she showed her true emotions to someone.


Sehun's heartbeat runs faster and he could feel his cheeks heating up. Thinking how can someone look so ethereal? Her smile captivated him. This isn't the first time he saw her smiling but this one is exceptionally special than the others. Her smile was meant for him and only him. He can't seem to erase that in his mind.


"Thank you so much Sehun." She thanked him as happy tears continued to stream down her flushed cheeks. Sehun wasn't her first friend, but he was the one that made her feel that she really did have someone by her side.


Sehun smiled at her and pats her head lightly and gently caresses it. She looked fragile when she's crying. Being her friend would be enough for him as long as he's with her. As long as he can see her heavenly smile. It's enough for him.

"Come on Luna! I'll introduce you to my other friends!" Sehun dragged Luna outside as soon as the bell rang indicating that it's their lunch break.


Luna had a confused looked on her face but nevertheless she let Sehun drag her, not caring about the malicious stares or glares coming from the students they passed through the hallway.


Finally Sehun stopped dragging her and she realized where they are. They're in front of the special club room. This room is for exclusive students only and Luna can't help but feel so lost.


"Se-" before she could even finish her words Sehun already opened the door. He stepped in and once again he dragged Luna with him.


Her eyes wonder around the room, the interior was classy and the atmosphere was relaxing. There were two leather couches that could fit six person each, a big wooden book shelf attached against the creamy white walls. There's a round glass coffee table placed just in front of the couches, there's also a modern chandelier hanging in the ceiling. A wide flat screen TV was attached to the wall with long speakers on both of its side.


The place was really spacious, it was actually larger than the living room of her apartment.


"That's weird, they should be here now."Sehun said as he rubbed his chin, his brows creasing in the process. Suddenly they heard noises from another room, a white door caught both of their attention.


They could hear multiple voices shouting and laughing.


"Oh, they must be eating at the kitchen." Sehun exclaimed. Luna's eyes widen.


"There's a kitchen here?!" She exclaimed in shock. Well, who wouldn't? It was actually her first time entering this room so everything was just new for her.


"Silly." Sehun laughed at her as he ruffled her hair.


He went to open the door and Luna just followed him. Opening the door, she saw 5 guys running around the kitchen while laughing hard. They were like children playing around. It was hilarious but adorable at the same time.


Their silliness stopped when Sehun faked a cough. They all stood there frozen, they were stuck on their weird positions and it was quite funny. Luna bit her lips, supressing the laughter she doesn't want to come out.


They slowly tilted their heads on Sehun and Luna's direction. They let out an awkward laugh and sat at the empty dining chairs.


When everything seemed to be fine, Sehun spoke.


"I'm going to introduce you guys to a new friend of mine." Sehun exclaimed in excitement, they all looked at Sehun and then to Luna.


"Here is Luna, she's my classmate and my new friend." Sehun introduces with a smile as he pulled Luna in front of the guys.


Luna was nervous and timid that she bowed her head. "Hello, I-I'm Song Luna." She stuttered introducing herself.


"Oh! I know you. You're that girl who won the drawing contest last year!" One of them exclaimed making Luna to turn her attention to them. She flushed red at the moment and just nod.


"Halt hyungs! Introduce yourselves first." Sehun suggested.


"Oh, you're right. Anyways, I'm Byun Baekhyun. Nice to meet you!" Baekhyun stood and shook her hands as he flashed her his infamous rectangular shaped smile.


"I'm Do Kyungsoo, you can call me Kyungsoo" Kyungsoo waved at her and gave her an adorable heart shaped smile.


"I'm Park Chanyeol!" He stood up and also shook her hand.


"Do we need to introduce ourselves?" Kai asked as he pointed himself and Tao.


"Oh, no. Its fine, I already know the both of you." Luna said as she waved her hands as a sign that it was just fine for her.


"Since you're Sehun's friend, we're your friends too." Baekhyun happily exclaimed.


Luna looked at them with gratitude, "Thank you, really." She said bowing her head.


They giggled at her innocent attitude, she was really different from the other girls.


"How 'bout we eat lunch now? I'm really hungry. Hey, Luna. Come eat with us." Chanyeol interrupted.


"Oh, I forgot my lunch inside the classroom. I'll just go get it." She said as she was about to leave Sehun grabbed her hands.


She turned to Sehun, "It's alright. Kyungsoo-hyung already cooked lunch for us." He explained as he gave her a smile.


"Oh, is that so? Thank you." She said as she bowed to D.O.


Luna sat beside Sehun since he's the one she's closer with.


Kyungsoo placed the food at the center of the dining table. Her eyes sparkled, all of it looked so appetizing and mouth-watering. All of them ate lunch, the boys were joking with each other. Luna just watched them in amazement. They treat each other like brothers though they're not blood related.


She unknowingly smiled at the sight. Never did she knew that she's gaining friends now. Though they're all boys, she felt that they're all true and not fake. She felt that slowly, her black and white life was being painted with bright colours.


From that moment, she knew that everything will change. Everything will change, in a better way.
