Chapter 3: Joohyuk

Lee-Ah was walking to math but she noticed something.
A girl was asking Heeseung out and he clearly looked uncomfortable.

"I uhm......I have a girlfriend....yeah."
The girl looked up at him and rolled her eyes.

"Who?"
At that exact moment he saw Lee-Ah passing by.

"It's Lee-Ah."

"Prove it."
The boy ran up to Lee-Ah and whispered in her ear.

"I apologize in advance."

"Wha-"
Heeseung bent down a little and pecked her lips.
Lee-Ah froze in her spot as Heeseung turned back to the other girl.

"Yeah she's my girlfriend. Right Lee-Ah?"
Lee-Ah just nodded her head even more confused about the situation.
The other girl just ran away as Heeseung turned back to Lee-Ah who was just staring at him.

"I'm SO sorry! She was asking me out and I didn't like her so I panicked and said I had a girlfriend. Then I saw you walking by and so I panicked even more and said I was dating you. Then she said 'prove it' so I only had one choice which was to kiss you. And I'm really sorry."

"It's okay, uhm we're gonna be late for math."

"Oh, right."

At lunch Xiaoting ran over to her friends table and sat down.

"So my parents are going to out of town on Thursday and aren't coming back until Sunday, so since your parents are still the states, I was thinking we should have a party at your house on Friday. What do you think?"

"Yeah sure.."
Lee-Ah was stuck replaying the kiss over and over in her head.

"Girl what's wrong? Did you take your pills this morning you seem off?"
Lee-Ah looked up at her friend.

"First no I forgot, and second I'm acting off because Lee Heeseung kissed me."

Her friend's water came out of her nose because she obviously chocked. Her friend slammed the table and stood up.

"YOU KISSED LEE HEESEUNG?!"
Lee-Ah grabbed Xiaoting's wrist and pulled her to sit down.

"SHHH Not so loud!"
Xiaoting bowed to the crowd of people just trying to eat their lunch in peace, and sat down.

"Sorry, it's just a really big deal. You've moved on to your SECOND boyfriend, while I haven't even have my FIRST kiss!!"

"Look, we're not even dating, it was an accident."

"What do you mean accident?! You can't kiss somebody on "ACCIDENT""

"Well, it happened, so yeah."

"Okay.....well I'm gonna go invite people to the party."

As soon as she said that Heeseung and six other boys came to our table.

"Hey guys."
A guy with doey eyes sat down first along with a tall one.
After that another two showed up and the final three showed up. One of them stared at Xiaoting and she stared back and they finally both screamed.

"OMG SUNGHOON?!"
Sunghoon and Xiaoting stood up.

"OMG TING?!"
He quickly picked her up and spun her around.

"What the fuck?"
Lee-Ah looked at them confused while everyone else just shrugged.

"OH MY GOD I DIDN'T KNOW YOU MOVED HERE!!"
Xiaoting started yelling again after he put her down.

"I DIDN'T KNOW YOU GOT SO MUCH PRETTIER!! HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?! YOU'RE A GODDESS NOW!!"
Sunghoon spun her around and she laughed.

Lee-Ah just there even more confused.

"Okay I'm literally so fucking confused."

"Lee-Ah this Sunghoon, he was my boyfriend freshman year but he moved schools because he moved closer to the skating rink."

"I didn't recognize you at first you changed so much in just a couple years."
Xiaoting smiled at Sunghoon and they hugged once more.

"Oh, I guess that makes sense. Why didn't you ever tell me about him?"

"You came in sophomore year, I was sad to talk about him because I still wasn't over him. BUT NOW HE'S RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!!"
Sunghoon laughed as everyone else felt like third wheels.

"Oh right! We're having a party at Lee-Ah's house on Friday!! You guys should come!"
The boys' eyes lit up as they all agreed.

"You can invite anyone you want."
Lee-Ah was about to agree but she suddenly got a text message.

"I'll be back."
Lee-Ah sprinted out the door.
Heeseung felt an uneasy feeling and followed her.
Everyone looked at the door confused.

"Weird.."

-🌸-

"What do you want from me Joo-Hyuk?"
A boy walked up to Lee-Ah who was leaning against the wall acting fine but she was terrified.

"Why are you calling me that? I know you still love me."
Lee-Ah rolled her eyes as JooHyuk raised her head with his finger on her chin.

"Why do you keep running away from me love? There's no use."
Lee-Ah shivered as his eyes met her's.
Joohyuk leaned in to kiss her but she turned away.

"Stop. I don't love you anymore. Can't you just leave me alone?! I'M OVER YOU! DON'T YOU GET IT?!"
Joohyuk slapped her and she fell to the ground.

"YES YOU DO!"
Suddenly he gasped for air and fell to the ground.
Lee-Ah looked up and met eyes with Heeseung with a bat in his hand.(He got it from me to got beat him up duh πŸ™„)
Heeseung grew a lump in his throat as he saw her shiny eyes filled with tears.
He put his hand out and helped her up.

"Are you okay?"
She just shook her head and wiped her tears with her sleeve.

"No..He's scary."
The lump in his throat grew bigger.

"Can I....hug you?"
Lee-Ah automatically wrapped her arms around him and he did the same.

"You don't have to talk about it, I understand. But if you want to, I'm always here."
Lee-Ah nodded and broke the hug.
She looked up and suddenly grabbed his hand and ran behind the school.

"Shit my dad's here."
Heeseung peeked around the corner and shrugged.

"I only see the principal."
She stared at him until he widened his eyes.

"YOUR DAD'S THE PRINCIPAL?!"
She nodded and dragged him back inside.

"Yeah he is, and he came back from California for a day to check on me."

Her father and her step-mom walked up to them.
Heeseung bowed to them and Lee-Ah just stood there.
Her stepmom smiled and looked at Heeseung.

"Is this your boyfriend?"

"No, this is my friend Heeseung."
Heeseung bowed again.

"I went home today, you better clean the house before I come for good."

"Look dad, If you're not going to say anything at least a little bit respectful, why don't you just stay in California and adopt perfect daughter there. Anything else you wanna say?"
Her dad glared at her.

"Will you take that metal out of your face?"
He was staring her nose piercing and she just rolled her eyes.

"Bye dad."
She grabbed Heeseung's hand and walked away from the situation.
