You took in the views of where you were. You made a move to get out of wherever you were rested, but leaving was quickly denied as an option when a hand grabbed onto your arm. You looked up and saw Mr.Kim, nothing but a smile appeared on his face.

"Where am I?"
"You passed out... So I took you to the nurses office."
"I passed out?"
"Yes... Someone is here to see you by the way."
You peeked over his shoulder to see someone literally breaking down the door to get to you. You thought it'd be Inho, but it wasn't.

It was Lee Inpyo.

"Y/N! I entered the office when I saw Jinsub catch you!"
"Inpyo..."
He smirked when you called his name and trotted over to you with delight. He wrapped you up in his arms and you couldn't help but to snuggle into him. The two of you started chatting for a few minutes, and then you remembered the mission that you had to do.

Confront Jinsub.

You flung your head around and made eye contact with him, "Jinsub... Are we really partners?"
When those words escaped your mouth, Inpyo grabbed you by your arms with a gasp and started to shake you. "You and Jinsub are partners?!?!" You rolled your eyes.
"No Inpyo, I meant for summer camp." He nodded and released you, becoming more calm.

Jinsub raised his eyebrows with a grin, "Well... Were not partners YET, and I don't mean about summer camp.."

Did he really just say that?

You changed the subject as you didn't want to cause suspicion or awkwardness. "So, are we?"
"Yes, why do you ask?"
"Well I don't trust you so.."
"I'm good with kids Y/N. I can handle you quite well, so I'm sure that everyone else will be much easier."
You scoffed.

"I'm sorry, are you calling me a child?"
"You said it, not me. Remember that."
You became annoyed and replied with attitude. "I think you should go."
"Take it easy Y/N."
Inpyo watched the awkward conversation between you and Jinsub. Once Jinsub left, Inpyo started to nudge you.

"I see that you have an interest in a man, and vice versa! It's about time!" "Oh be quiet." Inpyo helped you out of the bed with his arm around your neck as the both of you left the nurses office.

You and Isaac were walking home from school with Inpyo tagging along. You knew that your dad would probably be a little upset, but your mom always loved having Inpyo around. He would help with around the house, so did the others when they used to come over, so mom wouldn't mind as much. Dad is still extremely protective.

You remembered the time when your dad didn't want you driving so soon, but you managed to convince him.

After awhile of walking, you and the boys made it home safely. When you stepped inside the house, everyone laid down their things. You headed to the kitchen, calling for your parents. "Mom?Dad?" You didn't get any response until you heard your mom's voice. "In here honey!"

You walked around the kitchen and went to a small room by the kitchen that held the dining room table. Your mom was washing the top of it and smiled when she saw you, along with Isaac and Inpyo standing behind you.

"Oh hello there everyone! Your dad's not home yet, but I'm here!"
Your mother danced over to you with a smile and smacked a kiss right onto your cheek which made you blush. You could hear giggles coming from the younger ones behind you. When your mother went over to Inpyo and Isaac to do the same thing, you bit your lip to resist the laughter that was ready to explode.

"Inpyo! My, I haven't seen you in ages! What brings you here?"
"Well, Y/N invited me here for a few hours so... We'll probably just hang out." Inpyo gave your mother a pat on the back and skipped over to you, grabbing you by the hand and smiling brightly. "So, where's your room?"

Soon enough, you and Inpyo were sitting on your bed in your room. Isaac had departed to his room to mind his own business. Inpyo held your hand, playing with your fingers as he spoke. "Seems as if you and Jinsub are crushing on each other." You rolled your eyes with a sarcastic tone. "Yeah right, I'm in love with my music teacher and summer partner."

Inpyo grinned devilishly as he pulled you onto his lap to mess with your hair. You grumbled with frustration as you leaned back against him, his hands forgetting about your silky hair and more focused about comforting you as they wrapped around your waist.

"Have you guys... I don't know.. Done stuff?" You snuffled with a slight laugh escaping when you responded. "Ha, that's where your assuredly wrong. He's my camp partner, there's no way that we'd do anything. Not that I'd want to anyways.." Inpyo grinned and hugged you tighter.
"Oh really? Is it because you can't handle him?"
"Shut it..."

After a while of talking, Inpyo made his way off the bed and threw you a sweater from your closet. "Come on, let's go to the park, go on a nice nature walk."
You sighed.
"Must I?"
"Yes, you must. Now get your lazy butt off that bed and put on your sweater." Considering the mood you were positioned in, you weren't wanting to leave the house, but like always, you were talked into it.

But in this case, it was more 'Dragged' into it.

You were laying on your stomach, screeching for Inpyo to let go of your feet that he had grabbed as an attempt to get you off the bed. When that didn't work, he used all his might to lift you up. He picked you up, bridle style, and carried you all the way down the stairs to the front door. When he called out to your mom "It was nice seeing you again... Were gonna head to the park!" You instantly knew that you had lost the battle and there was no point in trying to fight him about letting you stay home.

Inpyo placed you on your feet. You both strolled down the sidewalk until you reached the nature park. There were barely any people around as the sun was beginning to set, and as you and your long, lasting, old friend walked down the trail, you couldn't resist but smile nonstop.

You never spoke much, you were too amazed at the scene that rested before you. The long brown trail disappearing into the woods, the bright green trees climbing as high as the mountains, and beautiful blue and pink sky forming as one, stars becoming more noticeable, and the sun setting across the horizon. It was a resplendent sight to see.

While walking down, you jogged lightly with your hands up in the air and yelling. "I love this!" Your positive reaction pressed Inpyo to giggle along with your joyfulness. When you stopped your sudden childish-attitude, you noticed that your ring, a ring that had a very special meaning behind it, was gone.

You began to tremble. If you lost that ring, you would never forgive yourself. When Inpyo noticed your odd behavior, he came over to check on the problem that had occurred. Right at that time, a tap was felt from your shoulder.

When you turned around, a familiar friend stood before you, and he had something shiny clasped in his hand.

"Looking for this?"
