"Wow, I can't believe that we're already seniors." Gary said as we walked into Running Man High.
"I know! This is our last year of high school. We went through so much to get this far...." I smiled at Gary. "I'm so glad I met you Gary."
Gary laughed. "Same! Remember when we first met?"
I nodded. "Yeah... It was on the first day of school right beside that stairwell." I pointed to the stairwell in front of us. "You saved me from getting egged."
"Yeah." Gary put his arm around my shoulder. "Who would've guessed back then that we'd be a couple and stand up for ourselves. What you did was really awesome Ji Hyo. I started to like you even more after I saw you stand up there in front of everyone like that."
I blushed. "I wasn't just going to let Kim Jong Kook and his friends bully us until the end of our lives. I had to do something, and I'm glad I did."
"Speaking of Kim Jong Kook, who would ever guess that he'd turn into such a nice guy." Gary commented. "You really changed things at this school Ji Hyo."
I smiled. "I couldn't have done it without you guys."
"Ji Hyo..." Gary looked at me. "Do you really love me?"
"Yeah, of course!" I said wondering why he would ask that sort of question. "Why would you think I don't love you?"
Gary smiled . "I just wanted to make sure."
"I really do love you." I told him. "And if you're still thinking about Kim Jong Kook then you don't have to worry about it anymore oppa. Yeah, I did like him a little bit back then and I know I was acting stupid and not realizing that we were meant to be together! A lot of things happened between me and Jong Kook, but I didn't feel the same way I did with him then how I feel when I'm with you. I love being with you and I wouldn't give you up for anything."
"I knew. About your feelings for Jong Kook, but I also knew it was my fault. I know I haven't been showing much affection to you or stuff like that. I'm not that close with you,and I want to get closer Ji Hyo." Gary said.
"Me too." I agreed. "I want to be with you Gary. Forever."
Gary smiled. "Me too."
"I'm going to go find Suzy and congratulate her on her drama, okay? I'll see you." I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek then ran upstairs.
"Ji Hyo!" I saw HaHa and Suzy walking out of the library. Perfect. I know that they aren't together. HaHa and Suzy decided that they should just be friends and nothing more.
"Suzy! I really love your show Dream High!" I said.
Suzy smiled. "Thanks! When are you going to work in a show?"
"Actually, I was going to keep it a secret but i've been chosen to be the main lead in a new drama called Emergency Couple. I'm so excited." I answered.
"Wow chincha!" HaHa gave me a high five. "You go Mong Ji!"
"Yah borago!" I laughed. "Where are you guys going?"
"Well, today's really just a free day for us so HaHa and I are going to go chill at Seumdwa coffee shop. Kwang Soo, Jae Suk and Suk Jin are there too." Suzy said.
"Suk Jin? I thought he's too cool for school now." I joked. Suk Jin's popularity has been rising and he's being asked to be the MC in a bunch of new variety shows. He'll probably have some competition though now that Jae Suk is running for the position too.
"Apparently not." HaHa laughed. "You should stop by."
"Arasso, I will." I promised. "See you there."
Both of them waved and I watched them leave with a smile. Gary was already gone. Hmm, where'd he go? I turned around and almost screamed when the person in front of me covered my mouth with his hand. Oh-My-God.
"Don't scream." He whispered. "Please."
"C-chanyeol?" I whispered when he removed his hand.
"And Sehun!" Sehun waved.
"Don't forget about me!" D.O grinned.
"W-what..." I asked looking at them with a confused expression.
"What?" Sehun asked in shock. "Is that all you can say? You're meeting three members of EXO after the longest time and all you can say is what?"
"Mianhe." I apologized and looked around. "What are you doing here?"
Chanyeol shrugged. "We were bored and decided to stop by and say hi. Where is everyone? The school looks dead."
"They're at Seumdwa." I answered.
"Seumdwa?" D.O asked. "What is that?"
"Coffee." I added, but they still looked lost. "Have you guys never been there?"
"Yah, we're famous now. We don't have time to go stop at coffee places. Our assistants get those for us." Sehun defended.
"Wooowww. Well I was just heading there. We should go and maybe we can surprise Jong Kook." I winked.
"Jong Kook's still alive?" D.O asked then looked embarrassed when Chanyeol gave him a look. "Oh, Mianhe... why wouldn't he be. Haha..."
"Yeah. He's pretty alive. Come on, let's go." I said and we headed out of Running Man High together. Boy, I am one lucky girl.
-Kim Jong Kook-
"Jong Kook..."
I looked to my right and saw Gary gesturing me to come towards him. We were at Seumdwa Coffee Shop and I was just about to play a game of arm wrestling with Jae Suk.
"What?" I asked, annoyed.
"Come here." He patted the seat next to him.
I sighed. "Chakaman. Kwang Soo you take my turn for now." I went towards Gary and sat down beside him. "What? What's so important that you had to interrupt my arm wrestling match?"
"Wow. You're still the same." Gary said.
"What did you say!?" I asked loudly.
"I'm joking. I wanted to ask you something...." Gary looked really awkward and he sounded hesitant, as if he didn't know whether he should ask me or not.
"What is it?" I asked in a whisper. "You can tell me."
"Well...Okay. Here it is." Gary looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping then took a deep breath. "I'm going to propose to Ji Hyo."
My eye's widened. "W-what?"
Gary nodded. "On the day of our graduation. When they call her name to get her diploma. But the thing is... this is really rude of me. But... do you think... you can lend me... um... some money..."
"For what?" I asked even though I obviously knew what he was asking for.
Gary rubbed his neck nervously. "A ring. I already have a lot of money saved, but I just need a few more to get the perfect ring for her. You know how much Ji Hyo likes gold... and I'm not rich enough to provide it to her... and I was wondering if you could... help."
I didn't know how to answer. I mean, I'm married to Eun Hye and I love our relationship right now. But why do I have this weird feeling in my stomach about Ji Hyo and Gary?
"No." I suddenly said. What the heck. I didn't even mean to say those words!
"Oh.. arasso I understand." Gary looked upset.
"Maybe you should get a job instead of just sitting around doing nothing!How do you expect to be a good husband for Ji Hyo if you can't even afford a ring?" I added then covered my mouth with my hand. What am I saying??
"Sorry I'm not the heir to the richest company in Seoul!" Gary said angrily then stood up and left the shop.
"Gary! Chakaman!" I quickly ran after him and grabbed his arm to make him stop. "Mianhe. I don't know why I said that. Those words just came out of mouth.. i really didn't mean them. Of course I'll help you."
"Really?" Gary asked.
I nodded. "Of course."
"Guys?"
We both looked to the right and saw Ji Hyo walking towards us with Chanyeol, Sehun and D.O. Wait, CHANYEOL!
"Are we... interrupting something?" Sehun asked.
I glanced down and saw that I was holding onto Gary's arm then I quickly let go. "No, nothing."
D.O raised an eyebrow and glanced at Chanyeol who shrugged.
"Jong Kook! It's good to see you again!" Chanyeol gave Jong Kook a hug and they both laughed.
"I know!" I smiled. "How's being famous?"
"Tiring." D.O answered.
"Awesome!" Sehun corrected.
"Both." Chanyeol finished.
"Yeah, I bet you guys get no break time. Are you still going to be able to come to the graduation ceremony tomorrow?" I asked.
Chanyeol sighed. "No.. we tried to convince our managers but our schedules are too busy. Mianhe Jong Kook. Maybe I'll see you on stage one day."
I felt a little upset that Chanyeol wouldn't be coming, but I still smiled. "Maybe."
"Jong Kook. Did you know that these three have never been to Seumdwa Coffee Shop?" Ji Hyo said.
"What's so great about it?" Sehun asked peeking inside. "It's so tiny."
"Like a pebble..." D.O looked at us. "Mianhe. It's not that small."
"What! Chincha!" I said in shock.
"You have to try their coffee! Come on!" Gary led them inside and said, "Seumdwa!"
Ji Hyo started to follow them, but I grabbed her hand. She stopped and sighed. "What is it.."
"I don't know." I muttered. "I just want to see you."
"Jong Kook." Ji Hyo moved my hand off of hers. "You said we were done. You can't keep having mixed feelings for me. You're engaged with Eun Hye. Start thinking about her, arasso?"
I sighed. "I do Ji Hyo. But I can't get you off my mind."
She stayed silent for a few moments then said, "You said we were done. You said it yourself. So now we have to make that happen. Goodbye Jong Kook." Ji Hyo looked at me then went inside the coffee shop.
"Goodbye." I said quietly.
