"I've put up with you long enough," a girl said, slamming her books down on Aera's desk. Everyone had been exiting the classroom, ready to go home, but at the sound all heads suddenly turned to the two of them. 

Aera looked up at the girl in confusion. "What?" 

"Heeseung's my boyfriend, so stop flirting with him, okay? I'll let you off easy this once cause you're new." 

"Excuse me?" Aera said, laughing. "Your boyfriend is the one flirting with me, so maybe you should control him."

"He's my boyfriend," the girl repeated. "Stop swaying him." 

Aera rolled her eyes, standing up and banging her hands on the table. She tilted her head at the girl and raised her eyebrows. "But isn't Heeseung everyone's boyfriend? I don't see why you're so upset." 

The girl scoffed, rolling her eyes. "But he stayed with me the longest. We had something special." 

Aera couldn't help it... she burst out laughing. The girl sounded like such an idiot. She was laughing so hard that it was a struggle to breathe. 

The other students in the classroom broke off into nervous chatter as Aera tried to compose herself. She looked at the angry "girlfriend." 

"He stayed with you for the longest?" Aera repeated. "What, for a week?" 

The girl huffed, rolling her eyes. "You're going to regret this," she warned. 

Aera shrugged, accepting the challenge. "Make me." 

At that, the girl raised her arm to hit Aera, but before Aera could move, before she could even think, a hand reached out, grabbing onto the girl's wrist and stopping her. 

"What do you think you're doing?" Heeseung whispered, looking at the girl, his eyes deadly. He let go of her wrist and stood in front of Aera. 

"I could have handled it," Aera whispered to him. A quiet school life. That had been the goal. And all wrecked because of this annoyingly handsome and charming boy. 

Heeseung didn't answer, instead, he took her hand. She heard gasps from the other students. 

"What are you doing?" she hissed at him, trying to wrestle her hand out of his grasp, but he held on tight. 

"No one touches her," Heeseung said, still holding onto her hand. His voice was deadly serious, his eyes full of fire. "Ever."

A/N 

Am I going off of the schedule I made and updating for the third time this week? 

Yes. Yes I am😂

I'm just excited cause as we get deeper in the story there will be a lot more ✨drama✨ and I think it's gonna be a fun ride. 

Also! I started drafting my new Sunghoon fic (it's called Wonderland and for anyone who wants to check it out, the introduction and character chapters are published) and I really can't wait to be ready to start publishing that one as well. I made Sunghoon a very soft and shy boy in it and it's so fun to imagine a soft shy Sunghoon🥺

I think I want to eventually do a book for each member, though I feel like most of my books will end up being for Sunghoon or Heeseung. I already have another idea for a Sunghoon one, but I also have ideas for Heeseung and Sunoo, and I really want to do a Jake fic. Soooo maybe someday I'll end up doing all members😉

As always, thanks for reading and for listening to my rant😂

Oh! Btw, please feel free to call me Alyssa (or Aly, as some people like to call me), I prefer it over anything else cause it feels more personal🥺💖
