+ two 

Upon entering Nari's apartment, Narda noticed it was nice. Too nice for a hair stylist to afford on her own, the foreign university student thought to herself. Perhaps it was the reason why she was looking for a flat mate; she needed someone to share the bills with. But that was none of her business. Narda was only there to do her job and to essentially stalk her favorite EXO member.

Her new flat mate led her to the room which would belong to her, and Narda was glad that it was fully furnished and had its own bathroom. That would provide her with her own privacy, as well as keep her from interrupting Nari's privacy. 

For the next week after her arrival, Narda made sure to stay out of Nari's way.

She went to the primary school to inform them that she had arrived, and to inform where she would be living so that they could promptly deliver her rent check every month. Every day after that, she would either spend it exploring the city or casually observing the SM dorm building from a distance, hoping to catch if even a momentary glimpse of Byun Baekhyun. She had even made sure not to stare, or to look the other way as she left the apartment each time she needed to and she heard an added voice, along with Nari's in the living room.

Each of those times, Nari would hastily grab a pillow off the couch and shove it front of his face to prevent Narda from seeing him. But Narda would never look their way and Nari always ended up looking like a lunatic.

"I'm going out, Nari." Narda informed with a quick wave of her hand. "I'll be back later."

Narda had learned EXO's current schedule by heart and knew that once their other engagements were done, the boys had the rest of the evening off. It was on those free afternoons that she would see Baekhyun get into a black car and drive off to an unknown place, only to return hours later. Sometimes it was to get dinner, other times it was to go shop for some items he needed, while other times he returned empty handed and she assumed he had only gone out to get some fresh air. 

But every single one of those times, he never noticed the girl across the street watching him. He turned every head in the crowd, but he didn't see her.

On this particular night, she had a plan to meet the twenty one year old. When she saw him leaving the dorm building--right on time--Narda looked both ways before running across the street. Her plan had been so elaborately thought out that she just knew it would work.

She watched him climb into the driver's side of the car and start the engine. He sat there a few minutes, looking at his phone screen, waiting for the engine to warm up. Narda stood on the sidewalk, only watching and waiting. When he put the car into reverse, she got her phone out of her pocket and pretended to be on it as she walked forward, behind his car.

Just before it could hit her, she tapped on it loudly and let out a very believable scream. 

She fell to the ground as the car abruptly stopped, and was put into park. From it emerged a very terrified and wide eyed kpop idol. He rushed to the back of his car to assess the damage.

When he saw a girl on the floor, he cried out in a panic, "Oh God, are you okay?"

"What do you think?" She said in a pained yet sarcastic voice, trying to sit up on the ground behind his car, and pretending it was difficult for her. At the moment she was grateful that he hadn't seen right through her. Actors were just good liars after all, and she was a good liar. She had always been. "You just hit me with your car..."

Baekhyun quickly knelt beside her, his hand reaching for her to make sure she was okay. But he stopped himself halfway and pulled his hand back away from her. If she was injured, he didn't want to move her and injure her more. "I'm sorry. I didn't see you there. You just popped out of nowhere." The EXO member tried to justify himself quickly.

"Are you saying this is my fault?" She asked with a gasp, trying to keep herself--her injured act--composed. There she was, trying to pretend she was in pain when in reality she wanted to smile wide and fangirl right then and there. She wanted to jump straight into his arms and profess her undying love for him. "You were the one in the car, not looking where you were going before backing up into a person." She argued back.

"Fine. Its my fault! Its my fault! I'm so sorry!" He shouted in her face, freaking out. Heart racing like mad. Eyes wide. Mouth agape. Placing a hand on her shoulder, he asked her, "Are you hurt?"

Narda winced in mock pain. Her hands went to her right leg, gripping onto her knee with great care. "I don't think anything is broken." She assured him, looking up into his dark brown eyes. "But the side of my leg really hurts. I don't think I can get up."

"Shit. Shit. Shit." He cursed under his breath in Korean, along with quite a longer stream of profanities that followed. The whole time he had spoken to her, it had been in his slightly broken English because he knew, just from looking at her, that she was foreign. English was the universal language and he knew there was a bigger chance that she would speak it as opposed to her being able to speak Korean.

"What did you say?" She asked him, her hand gripping onto the cool metal bumper of his car. 

Since he wasn't making any moves to help her get up, she would attempt it on her own. Forcing her leg into a stiff position to make herself seem more believable, she tried to get back on her feet while Baekhyun was lost in his own thoughts. He was snapped out of them when he saw her struggling to get up. That was when he easily slid his hands underneath her and lifted her up in his arms--bridal style. Narda, meanwhile, was delighted. But she was determined to keep herself from letting it show.

Grabbing onto his upper arm for support, and to keep from falling, she asked him, surprised, "What are you doing?"

He walked to the side of the car hurriedly and opened the back seat door. "I'm getting you to a hospital." He informed her, matter-of-factly.

Narda felt her heart sink.

He couldn't take her to a hospital. Perhaps she fooled Baekhyun and made him think that she was injured, but she wouldn't be able to fool a doctor. They'd see right through her and then she'd be a liar in Baekhyun's eyes. 

"No, no, no." She shook her head frantically, outstretching her arms to avoid being placed in the back seat of the car as she refused to be taken away from the scene of the events. Gesturing across the street, she told him, "Just get me to my apartment and I'll be fine. I'll ice it."

"I ran you over and you just want to ice it?" He asked, outraged.

He was beginning to think that the impact of the car had made her fall into a shock and she didn't know how much pain she was really in. 

"Perhaps it really was my fault." She tried to reason with him to forget taking her to a hospital. "I'm very clumsy."

He closed the door to his car and heaved a sigh. "I won't take you to the hospital then."

Narda heaved her own sigh of relief.

"But I will help you ice that bruise." He promised. 

He walked back towards the SM Town dorm building. Through the glass doors of the entrance as they passed it, Narda could see guards standing to keep from trespassers from entering and bothering the idols. Baekhyun--with an injured young woman in his arms--went around to the side of the building where there was a metal door that seemed like it wasn't opened often. It was a fire escape door and he set Narda down for a moment while he got his keys out and fumbled with them until he found the correct one.

After getting the door open, he picked her back up and hurried up several flights of stairs to the floor where EXO lived. Narda felt terrible for making him do that for her. But she couldn't tell him it was all a lie. Not when she had left it go that far.

He made it to their floor within minutes and took her to the lounge room. It was almost empty except for Chanyeol who was there playing some video games.

The boy in front of the television turned when he heard the door open. He shot his friend a puzzled expression when he say Baekhyun accompanied by--or rather carrying in--a young woman. Baekhyun set Narda down on the nearest couch and raced to the nearby fridge to search for some ice to put in a baggie for her.

Chanyeol paused his game and asked in Korean, "What did you do, Baek? Why is there a girl on our couch?"

"I accidentally ran her over." Baekhyun whispered.

"You what?!" Chanyeol's eyes widened.

"Shh! Shut up! Shut up!" Baekhyun shot his friend a look. "She's fine, at least she says she is. She only wants to ice it and then I'm helping her back to her apartment. Do not tell anyone about this, or I'll run you over next time."

Chanyeol raised his arms up in defense. "Chill, Mr. No-Regard-For-the-Law."

Narda watched them in confusion. 

"You know, its rude to talk in another language about someone. Especially when they're in the same room and they can't understand you." She pointed out to them. By the way Baekhyun was still speaking in a rushed in panicked tone, she knew they were talking about her.

"Right, sorry." Baekhyun apologized.

"You're oddly composed for someone who just got ran over." Chanyeol eyed her suspiciously.

Narda gave a nonchalant shrug of her shoulders. "Freaking out isn't going to make the situation better. Besides," She gestured to Baekhyun, who was at the moment taking out as much ice as he could from the freezer and stuffing it into a plastic bag which he then covered with a towel for her. His movements were frantic and panicked. "One person freaking out here is enough. Look at him, he looks like he's about to have a heart attack."

Baekhyun hurried to her side and knelt beside her, offering him his makeshift ice pack. 

Narda smiled thankfully and placed it to her injured leg, wincing in pain so expertly that she even seemed to convince Chanyeol who had been momentarily having his doubts.

At least she had gotten Baekhyun to notice her.
