chapter three,
the one in the boys dorm room

━━━━ VIVIENNE and kitty ended back in kitty's dorm room. although, vivienne was confused the majority of the time as they made their way through the building. the building was split in half, one side the girls dorm room and the other side the boys. somehow kittys room was in the boys. she didn't ask why. it wasn't the right moment.

"was it me? do you think it was me? that's why he went with yuri? yuri is pretty and she does see him probably everyday." kitty said. vivienne and kitty were inside of the bathroom. vivienne sat on the covered toilet seat and kitty stood in front of the mirror taking off her makeup. kitty has changed into small shorts and an oversized hoodie, her hair was messy and she was slowly cleaning up her face.

vivienne was still in her dress but her heels were long forgotten. "kitty, you did nothing wrong. and if we're going to be friends please don't ever compare yourself to anyone else because i will immediately stop." vivienne threaten and kitty shut up giving her a scared look. "you are beautiful and unique in your own way, everyone is. yuri and dae, we're going to have to figure out what that's all about together because i don't know either."

"do you want extra clothes?" kitty asked sniffing up her tears. vivienne nodded her head. kitty headed out of the bathroom — still wiping the makeup off he face — and into her shared dorm and picked up extra sweatpants and a oversized t-shirt. she came back and handed them to vivienne.

"thank you, i'll be right back." vivienne said and kitty nodded her head. as she walked over to kitty's room, she looked around the dorm room trying to find anything that will tell her who's this dorm was. but nothing. expect when vivienne entered kitty's room there was a familiar backpack sitting on the other bed that wasn't kitty's. what gave it off were the pins all over his backpack that min ho, quincy and vivienne all have given him through the course of their years of friendship.

as vivienne changed, her mind was spiraling to why is kitty staying in this dorm room. more specifically does she even know that she's sharing a room with dae? kitty came rushing inside of the room and slammed the door shut. "someone's here! act like you're asleep!"

kitty climbed on her bed with her phone that was still ringing out classical music from behind on hold. vivienne rushed to the bed and kitty threw the blanket over them both. the two girls getting close to each other since the bed was small. the door slammed shut and there were muffled muttered on the other side.

but they both heard one think loud and clear. "dae, you little scammer." min ho said loudly. kitty shot up from her bed and vivienne put her lips in a tight line.

"dae?"

"how did you convince yuri to buy you that suit?" min ho asked.

"how do you know i didn't buy it?" dae asked. vivienne rolled her eyes wondering if dae really finds them that stupid.

she could hear min ho taking in a deep breath and saying, "because it costs 5k." she could also heard dae spitting out water.

"no, no kitty!" vivienne whispered shouted to kitty who jumped off the bed and pressed her ear closer to the door to hear better.

"i don't know. i feel bad for kitty. it's a good thing that vivienne went after her, although she hasn't responded back to any of our texts to know where they are." quincy said looking back down at his phone and still no messages from vivienne.

"i don't feel bad and i couldn't care less where vivienne is." min ho said. this time it was vivienne's turn to jump out of the bed and mock kitty's actions.

"that's cold min ho. breaking up with someone is brutal. and stop acting like you don't care about vivienne, it's getting annoying." quincy scoffed.

"expect it wasn't a break because it wasn't a real relationship. and about vivienne, she did it to me first so why can't i do it back to her?" min ho said not looking at either of his fiends. dae and quincy shared a knowingly look. kitty and vivienne shared a look as well both different looks. kitty held one that looked like she was thinking. vivienne held a hurt one.

"look, dae, no one's gonna blame you for upgrading a pen pal for an actual girlfriend." what min ho said pushed all of kitty's button, but she let it out in the wrong way. kitty let out a small shout but quickly noticed her error. the three boys went quiet while kitty and vivienne jumped back into bed and hide themselves.

the door burst open, "oy, marius. wake up! time for class!" min ho chuckled reaching the end of the bed and pulled the blanket. it didn't budge since vivienne and kitty were holding it tightly move their heads. "a little help." min ho grunted to dae and quincy who started helping him. the blanket slipped off vivienne's and kitty's hand making the three boys take it off and showing the two girls.

kitty was the first one to scream, then the three boys, vivienne didn't scream she only got off the bed and headed towards the kitchen to grab a glass of water. min ho, dae and quincy all ran out of the room and inside of the living room.

"dae's crazy ex-pen pal broke into our dorm to murder us and vivienne helped her!" min ho accused pointing over to vivienne who was sitting on the kitchen island sipping her water. "yeah, don't act all innocent. i've figured you out."

"this is my room." kitty said shoving the registration paper down on the table. min ho picked up his laptop going to hit kitty with it. quincy picked up the piece of paper and laughed.

"you're listed as song covey." quincy said.

"so?"

"song can be a guys name, sweetie." vivienne said from behind kitty. kitty's mouth dropped, her face going through the five stages of grief.

"that's why they assigned you to the guys dorm." dae finished off his eyes scanning the paper over and over again.

min ho snatched the paper from dae and scoffed loudly. "she did this on purpose. to be closer to dae and me." min ho said glaring at kitty, "i told you lot, she was hitting on me on the plane ride over."

"she wasn't hitting on you. you're too full of yourself min ho. you know what," vivienne slammed the cup of glass back down to the table and stood up from the stool. "kitty if you want you can stay with me in my dorm room. there's no one there and the extra bed needs someone."

kitty looked back at vivienne and nodded her head gracefully. "yeah, yeah, i would like that let me just go get my stuff." kitty spoke softly. dae reached his hand out for her but kitty shook her head taking her arm away. "no, dae. i never wanna speak to you again."

kitty stormed back inside of the room and dae followed behind her. the door was slammed shut and there were a few mini shouts coming out muffled from the room.

"goodnight." vivienne said going over to hug quincy who wrapped his arms around her tightly. she pulled away and glanced up at min ho. their eyes locked but neither of them could read each other. "you know where my dorm is, come talk to me when actually want to talk and clear whatever beef you have with me without arguing. goodnight."

kitty stormed out of her room with her backpack and big yellow luggage. vivienne waved at the boys one last time as the two girls made their way out of the boys dorm room and walked over to her dorm room. vivienne heard kitty holding back a chocked sob and bringing her hand up to her face and wiping her tears away.

"shh, kitty." vivienne coo'ed getting closer to kitty and wrapping her arm around kitty. the red hair girl dropping her head down vivienne's shoulder and continued to softly cry.

when vivienne woke up and turned to her body to the side she noticed that kitty wasn't there anymore. neither were her stuff were there. vivienne shot up frowning her eyebrows and glancing all over the dorm room.

"oh good, your awake." a male voice startled her. vivienne eyes widen bringing the blanket up to her chest and quickly turning her head over to the where the voice came from. "the door was open, you should really lock it. hey, why don't you have like bodyguards?"

"min ho what the fuck!" vivienne shrieked. min ho stood inside of the kitchen — still in pjs — but with an apron over his body and cooking something. vivienne could see and smell that he was making pancakes and something else that she couldn't put her finger too.

"good morning, want any breakfast?" min ho asked grabbing two plates from her cabinet and settling it down and placing a good amount of food on each one.

"why are you here? what do you want?" vivienne asked frantically.

she got out of her bed throwing on a hoodie over her sleeping shirt that was silk and could definitely see areas that she didn't want min ho to see. vivienne slipped on her slippers and slide her way over to the kitchen where min ho held a bored expression while serving food.

"where the bloody hell is the orange juice. why don't you have orange juice? oh, you have apple juice." min ho scoffed grabbing the apple juice and pouring on to two glasses the same amount of apple juice. "how can a person have apple juice but not orange."

"min ho." vivienne said.

"vivienne eat, the food is going to get cold." min ho said pushing the plate in front of vivienne.

"min ho." vivienne deadpanned.

"what?" min ho snapped dropping his fork and leaning forward on the cabinet. vivienne tilted her head to the side and lifted her eyebrows up. "what? can't i be nice to my friend?"

"well i wasn't very much of a friend yesterday by the way you were acting the entire day." vivienne scoffed leaning her elbow on the table and picking up her fork with the other.

"it hurts doesn't it?" min ho mumbled underneath his breath. vivienne hummed in confusion. "sorry for bargaining inside of your dorm room and did this. i just want to talk about," min ho then stopped, "did you hear anything before us finding you guys out? anything i said?"

"hm let me think." vivienne said shoving a piece of pancake inside of her mouth and pretending to think. min ho almost held a relief look and vivienne was going to say no but then she saw his face. "apart from the fact that you said something about not caring where i was and when quincy told you why are you acting annoyed you said, i think you said, she did to me first."

"oh so you didn't hear anything. that's good!" min ho said sarcastically slumping down onto his chair and looking everywhere around the room but vivienne.

"i don't know what i did to upset you that much min ho. and why are you mad at me i should be mad at you because suddenly i stopped reviving texts from you and calls and facetime calls. in the groupchat you hardly ever texted to me as well. you practically pretended i wasn't even there." vivienne scoffed dropping the fork onto the plate causing it to create a loud clank sound.

"me?! you did it to me first!" min ho said pointing a finger at vivienne.

"bullshit!" vivienne said hopping off the stool and stomping over to her closet to take out a outfit for the day.

"it's not! all of a sudden you became vivienne the popstar and you forgot all about us! me!" min ho said throwing his arms up in the arm and getting off the stool as well. vivienne shook her head. "vivienne!"

"you must not know me at all to think that i would forget all about you guys. especially you. out of all people, you." vivienne said glancing at her clock and noticing that she still had an hour left till she had to get out of her dorm room. "the last text between us, i sent it. and i texted you numerous times on how nervous i was because it was my first time on stage. i texted you, i even called you and you never picked it up.

"vivienne that's not true." min ho said shaking his head and reaching up to where she was but stayed five feet away from her. "i saw you up on that stage and you looked like you belonged there."

"min ho i even texted you after and i got nothing back. not even a, congrats." vivienne's phone vibrated and she received a text message from yuri telling her that she should come downstairs and get breakfast with her. "i have to go. can you please get out. we'll talk later."

"vivienne." min ho breathed out reaching for vivienne's hand.

vivienne's lips tugged down as she recalled back to those moments before and after where all she wanted was a single short text from him. "i don't care anymore, it's all in the past. but can you please leave?"

"vinne." he whispered regret filling every single of his bones.

"min ho." she whispered running her thumb over his hand before letting go. "please go. i'll see you later on your dorm room with the others."
