"Tae I think I am just gonna go home, I don't feel very well." You smiled weakly and simply he nods, understanding your situation fairly quickly. "Could you let Ji know I went home?"

With the second sentence leaving your mouth, the thought of you leaving now processing in his mind as he quickly turned around to face you with concern. "Do you want me to come with you?"

"No, it's okay. I'll be fine." You simply replied.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Just make sure to stay alert, okay?" He walked over, enveloping you in a protective huge. You smile warmly and hugged back, it was sweet, how much he cared for you.

"Of course." You responded after the both of you broke the embrace. You made your way over to the front door and proceed to get put on your coat and shoes.

"Hey, before you leave, what were you and Baekhyun talking about?" He looks at you inquisitively.

"Ohh, we were just talking about what happened in the past." Your tone turns soft and you averted your gaze from Tae.

"Ah, well I am glad he was there to help you." He smiled before you opened the front door, waving him goodbye. You made your way back home and as soon as you unlocked the front door you take off your shoes and collapse into your soft bed. Winding slightly due to the pain in your lower half.

You sit up slowly and pull up your shirt up to reveal the bruises caused by So. You then slowly proceeded to get up from your bed and head to the bathroom, taking out badges and some ointment to apply onto your bruises. It took longer then you expected due to the time you spent was mostly wincing in pain and regretting your choice to apply ointment in the first place, but then again, it would only get worse if you did. It was treated by Ji a few hours ago but the bandages defiantly needed changing. After treating the, you brushed you teeth, changed into your pyjamas and headed to bed. You needed a well deserved good nights rest.

.

RING RING RING

"Hmmmmm." You murmured before rolling over in out of bed lazily so that your phone was in reach. Forgetting the bruises your mouth fell opened in pain as you quickly readjusted into more comfortable position.

"What.." You say in an annoyed and groggy tone.

"Geeze, someone woke up on the wrong side of bed." Tae chuckled.

"Oh sorry, good morning Tae." You sighed, quickly apologising.

"Good morning to you too sleepy head."

"What's up?" You inquired more a bit more awake and slightly recovered your from sleepy state just a few moments ago.

"Ji wanted to speak with you, I'll hand you too her."

"OKay."You am assumed Tae passed the phone to Ji because the volume of the phone suddenly became louder.

"Hello Ji."

"Hey (y/n) , I feel so bad again for yesterday, Tae, the exo boys and I are going out tonight, do you wanna join us? I think you deserve a bit of fun after what happened yesterday. Is your injuries okay?" You can see Ji is trying so hard to make sure you were having a good time back in Korea. You knew she didn't want you to be leaving anytime soon but considering the incident yesterday, it did seem like a good idea. Running away from your problems.

"Where you going?" You replied after a few seconds of silence.

"A party."

"You know parties aren't really my scene." You mumbled into the phone.

"Please (y/n)."

You pressed your lips together in a thin line, contemplating whether or not to attended the 'party'. Maybe going to something will take your mind off So and the bruises which were slowly healing. You just had to take it easy. "Okay, fine." 

"Yay, Tae will come and pick you up before four and take you to the Exo house hold before we all head to the party together."

"Okay." You simply replied. Not really getting anything that Ji said but responding anyway, you knew her for so long you were now used to it. You hear loud ruffling noises before Tae's voice could be hear through the speaker once again.

"See you soon (y/n), bye." He said before hanging up. The meant you had to doll up for tonight.

.

You open the door to see Tae making his way down the drive way.

Laughing at the perfect timing you spot an unfamiliar figure accompanying Tae. "Hahaha good timing-wait, who's this?" They both stop in front of you and Tae smiles.

"Hahaha thanks I try but (y/n) meet Min Yoongi or Suga if you will, Suga this is (y/n), now you two better get along." He points to the two of you like children and you decided to play along with him.

"Ummmm but I don't wanna." You whined whilst pouting.

"Wait what?!?" Tae exclaimed in shock, okay maybe Tae took your joke too seriously.

"I was joking, nice to meet you Suga." You hold out your hand and he smiles brightly at me and shakes my mine.

"Same goes to you too." He replies. We continue our walk to Exo's house and You decide, being the introverted girl you am, to try and open up to Suga.

"So Suga, what do you like doing in your spare time?" Eyes drifted to the concrete path with nervousness. Tae knew exactly what you were trying to do and nudged you encouragingly form the right hand side.

"Hmmm sleep, compose, I actually wasen't going to come tonight but Tae kept on nagging me to come." Suga then sends a death glare at Tae and he smiles nervously.

"Hehehe you know (y/n), you and Suga would actually get along very well, you are both emotionless monsters that love sleep and never comes out of their house or room unless it is for music and food." Tae continues to laugh and Suga and you instantly shoot a glare at him.

"HEY!" You both say in sync.

"See, you are even in sync with each other." He pointed out.

"Can you please stop." You nudging Tse lightly and as a small tint of pink hits your cheeks.

"Ah he, I think we are here." Suga says awkwardly and you smile in reply. You watched as the three of you neared ex's front door as Tae knocked. You zone out completely as you didn't realise the door was already open.

"Hey (y/n), are you okay?" You hear before looking up to see Bakehyun standing in the doorway of the opened the door.

"Ooh, I'm fine." You quickly replied whilst stepping into the house.

"They are here." Baekhyun calls for the others and they all suddenly appear in the living room.

Wow their is a lot of them, I don't really feel comfortable around a lot of people around.

You smiled nervously as the whole group piled into the house, you then wondered through out the journey inside why you decided to come. Mentally slap yourself for giving into Ji so easily but then realised that you must of looked like an idiot starring into space like that, instead of greeting the others.

"Oh sorry, Hello everyone." You wave and flash an apologetic smile.

"Okay since everyone is now here, let's go." You all get into a large van that was waiting for you all outside, you where one of the first people in, meaning you could pick your own seat so you decided to sit by myself since everyone else had a partner or a friend to sit with. You guess that you are going to be left out but thats okay. By yourself for nearly ten minutes of the car ride, you have been starring outside the window, just being a mindless human, you guess.

"What are you thinking about?" You turn and see Baekhyu's head popping out from the seat behind of you. You laugh as at his childish behaviour and shrugged.

"I don't know, I was just thinking about~."

"Why you came?" He interrupted, you look at him in disbelief, how did he know?

"Umm how did you~."

"It's written all over your face, the pout when I opened the door, the starring into space and no interaction with others." You blink twice at how observant he was.

"I'm not really a party girl if you can't tell, I am also really bad at making new friends." You reply in a honest tone.

"Well I think your doing pretty well with making new friends." He smiled in a comforting manner.

"What who?" You look around the bus.
You weren't aware you made new friends, you hadn't talked to anyone so far oh the journey there.

"Me, I'm your friends, right?" You can't help but let a smile form on your face when speaking to Baekhyun, you don't know why but he always lighten ups the atmosphere.

"Oh you, right I forgot." You cheekily smirk in attempt to make a joke.

"What, you forgot about me when I am the only one talking to you?" He pouts cutely and quickly takes off his seat belt, taking the empty seat next to you.

"Hmmm who are you again?" You turn your gaze from him and look out the window.

"I am offended, (y/n), hey, you know what if you forgot me, I will make you remember me." He began. "I am going to stay with you the whole entire night, see if you can forget me then." He crosses his hands and leans in towards me whilst smirking.

"Okay you can do that if you want but I am warning you I won't be doing much." You smirked as well before holding out your hand. "Are you up for the challenge strange man sitting next to me that name escapes me?"

"You are soo mean but deal accepted." He shakes my hand and You laugh.

"Hahaha okay Baek." You let slip out, quickly pulling your hand out of his grasp upon realising what you said.

"Baek, soo you do remember my name??" You turn to face him and realized what had you said.

Whoops such a loud mouth.

"Ummm what, what are you talking about?" You look around the van nervously and then continue your gaze out the window.

"You called me by a nickname." Out of the corner of your eye you can see the massive smirk plastered on his face from the reflection of the window.

.....so cute....mean what am i saying...no...(f/n)...no boys...you know what's happens to you when you like a boy.

Stopping yourself from thinking further you quickly buried that thought at the back of your mind.

"Nope, you need to go and get your ears checked, I said no such thing." You denied.

"Fine be that way, hello my name is Baekhyun and your name is-wait I know, (y/n)." He taps you on the shoulder and you turn around.

"Okay nice to meet you Baekhyun." You chuckled at his silly actions.

" There it is the laughed I wanted to hear, (y/n) you should laugh more often, it suits you." You stare at him, a deep hue of pink dashing into your cheeks.

"Where here!!" You hear Tae yell, snapping the two of you out of the moment.

"Don't forget (y/n) about our deal, I was being serious." Baekhyun smiles and gestures to for you to stand up , both both exiting the van once it parked.

This is going to be a long night.

~TBC~
