Author's POV
...
You looked at him beside you. He's looking at Minjo who's choosing a song before his eyes travel to you and you smile at him right away and it didn't took him even a second to smile back at you. Blessing you again by his dimple.
And you wonder if is it you or the time is the one having a problem with running? Because everytimeyour eyes meet like this, the time just feel so slow.
And you like the feeling of being lost in those dark brown orbs of his.
You're both lost in each other's eyes that you didn't realize how the two of you slowly closing the gap between you. Not until Minjo's voice on the mic snapped you out of your dreamy thoughts.

Both of your attention is now on the eldest Kim Minjo who's rapping into Outsider's song titled 'Loner'. Your jaw drops in surprise at the sight of him rapping while the guys are having the opposite reaction. The looks on their faces says it all that what is Minjo doing right now isn't new to them.
You were expecting him to sing some sweet songs but no, this handsome guy named Kim Minjo seemed born with full of surprises.
"Oh no. Not again!" They all whine while waving their hands in protest but Minjo seemed lost in his own world, still having the best time of his life rapping.

"Aish! This is why I don't like doing Karaoke with you." You heard Ryu whined at Minjo and you laugh at that.
Minjo didn't listen to his dongsaengs' protest. Instead, he started doing weird dance moves that causes you, Sunoo and Hoseok burst out your laughter.
"Go Jin, go Jin!" You and Hoseok cheered up to hype up Minjo more while Ryu just shake his head and pours himself a glass of soju. From the corner of your eyes you see Sunghoon looking down to his phone for a second before he stood up, saying "Excuse me for a minute." and left the booth.
"Hey." you turn your head only to see Hoseok scooting next to you with his usual bright smile and you smile back.
"Hey." You greet him back as you looked at him pouring himself too a drink like Ryu and clink their glass before they chug it down together in one go.
"Having fun?" Hoseok asks and you nodded immediately.
"I already am." you replied pointing at Jin's direction who's still in his rap world and Hoseok laughs at it, getting what you meant. "He's adorable." you added.
"He's the eldest, but behaves like a maknae." Ryu's straightforwardness made the both of you and Hoseok slightly chuckle as you agreed.
"So, what's the status?" A question being raised suddenly by Hoseok which you're taken aback in confusion.
"What do you mean 'what's the status? I don't get it."
"You and Sunghoon." he says, right on time you're taking a sip of your orange juice that Ryu have just handed to you and you almost spill it at the snacks in front of you. Good thing you managed to hold it, but some juice still got in the wrong way of your throat and your reaction didn't go unnoticed by Hoseok. "Oh--I'm so sorry about that." He apologized as he taps your back with concern laced on his voice and you just waved a hand at him telling him that it's fine since you can't talk for now as you're coughing.
"No, it's fine." you managed to reply while calming yourself. You didn't expect that question from him. He just asked you directly about your relationship with Sunghoon! "We're just friends. Why did you asked about it tho?"
"Oh nothing. I'm just curious." Hoseok shrugs, laughing after but when he saw you gaped at him in disbelief he cleared a throat before he explain. "Well, it's kinda interesting to know actually. You see, me, Ryu-hyung and Jin-hyung knows everything about Sunghoon very well as his hyung. We're all aware of how bad boy he is and always causing trouble at his father's school--"
"He's a pain in the ass." Ryu chimed in, cutting Hoseok's words and you couldn't help not to laugh at that.
"Totally." Hoseok continued "At house, he's always in his room. He rarely join us in dinner--" Hoseok didn't even get to finish his sentence when you reacted at it right away.
"He doesn't eat at night?!" you exclaimed in surprise, startling Hoseok.
"Woah, calm down will you? and let me finish." He laughed at you and you just realize how you just reacted at it.
God, Yuna what are you doing?! can't you just hold yourself? You internally scolded yourself as you fix yourself and act like you just didn't overreacted few seconds ago.
"I mean," you cleared your throat "Why would he do that?"
"Well, I think it's not my place to tell the reason why he's like that. We all understand him anyway. So every night, I would always bring him a tray of foods and extra snacks just in case he feels hungry." He say with a small smile and you're amazed at how thoughtful and caring he is to Sunghoon. "You may found Sunghoon as a badass jerk if you'll base on what kind of personality he's showing at you but trust me...that's just his mask so no one would look down on him or try to pick on him. But deep down in him.."
"He's kind." you finished and Hoseok smile brightly at you.
"And you're the one who could totally put that mask down, Yuna."
"What do you mean?"
"Anyone from us could tell. Ever since he met you, his real self is slowly starting to show." he says and you shake your head in confusion.
"I don't get it--"
"You're not just a friend to him, dear. You're special." Ryu chimed in again and you immediately felt your cheeks heat up upon hearing the word 'Special'.
Plus, it's Ryu and Hoseok you're talking with. Namjoon's friend, who knows Sunghoon well since they've been friends for years, brothers at heart you could say.
You couldn't help not to feel embarrassed and this didn't go unnoticed to them.
"Hey, it's alright. We're friends." Ryu assures as he chuckled while giving you a friendly pat on your head and you mouthed 'Sorry' with a sheepish smile while feeling your heart racing inside your ribcage. Half because of the embarrassment for your red cheeks and half because of the thought that you're 'Special' to him.
But are you really special to him? or maybe his friends just got the wrong idea?
"Really? But I don't think Sunghoon would ever see me in that way. We just normally hang out. Just..like normal friends do." you say as you looked down to your lap while nervously fidgeting your fingers. You could still remember what Sunghoon have told that time at the amusement park, that he already like someone. So it's impossible to be you. You don't think you're even his type. You're just a friend to him. Shit.
Speaking of him, where is he? what's taking him so long?
"Hmm. I see you're still oblivious at how Sunghoon acts around you. Or you already saw the signs but you're just denying it." Ryu says and your eyes widens at that, head snapping towards him and you heard Hoseok laughs lowly beside you.
"I--" before you could even start your sentence Ryu stood up from the couch with a gummy smile on his face as he gives you last look before he goes to Jin who's now done with his song.
"Surprised?" Hoseok asks, referring to Ryu as he hand over the bag of chip to you.
"Yeah." you nodded, grabbing the bag of chip before an amused smile appeared on your lips. Ryu rarely talks but when he does, it's straight to the point.
"That's why I like him." Hoseok muttered which you failed to catch.
"What?" you asks but he just shake his head and mouthed 'Nothing' while having a silly smile on his face. Your mouth formed in an 'o' shape before you turn your head back to Ryu who's now standing in front with a mic on his hand while Jin sat next to you.
"I'm the best rapper, right?" Jin asks with a cheeky smile and you nodded at him with a grin.
"You're the best!" you give him a thumbs up and you heard Hoseok snickered beside you, earning a glare from Jin.
"Oh no, Sweetheart. Hear my rap first before you give him that title. I'll show you how my tongue technology works." Ryu says with his nose up to the ceiling while cutely resting his hands on his waist and you couldn't help not to laugh at his cuteness. He looked like a cute little boss.
"Okay then."
(Few minutes later...)
"Wow." the only word that you managed to say after witnessing Ryu's performance. Now you know what he mean by tongue technology.
"Wow? is that all?" he asks, playfully pretending hurt and you giggle as you clap your hands. "I'm sorry Jin but let's face it. Ryu is the rap god now." you say and Jin cutely pouted at you.
"Hail to the Rap god!" Hoseok cheered and you all laugh.
"Ee, you guys." you wipe the tear of joy that have escaped from your eye "Excuse me for a minute." you say, standing up from the couch, glancing at Sunoo who already fell asleep at the couch.
"Where are you going?" Ryu asks you
"Restroom." you replied, running to the door.

Yuna's POV
Smile couldn't leave my face as I make my way to the restroom. They're really fun to hang out with. But why do I feel like i'm missing something? I thought before suddenly feeling my lower stomach starting to feel like hot.
Wait, is it my period again?! Oh no I better check it out. I quicken my pace towards the restroom but halfway to it, I heard someone talking that made me stop on my track.
"...You don't deserve her--"
"And who do you think I deserve? You? Well, you're definitely wrong about that!"
I turn my head to where I think the voice came from and their I saw a girl and a guy who has his back facing me, standing at the corner few meters away from me and my eyes widen when I finally recognize who they are.
You got to be kidding me.
No way.
It's Sunghoon and that Booby girl?! So is she the reason why he excused himself there?
I can't see his face but I can still recognize him by his figure and his clothes.
I don't know why but the moment my eyes saw them again together like that I just felt this sudden pang jealousy in me and i'm confused and annoyed. I don't like this feeling. I mean we're just friends but why am I feeling this thing? They're just talking, Yuna! No they're not, they're arguing of somethin--no, someone.
Who's the girl they're talking about? A question that I couldn't help not to think of it.
"Your father will choose me and there's nothing you can do, Sunghoon." She stated with a seducing smirk on her face as she looked at him. I don't know if he's seduced by it because I can't see his face. But basing on how the way he fist his knuckles and shake his head while taking a step back, I could say she fails to do so.
Sunghoon didn't speak and was about to turn back but what she did next pierced my heart when she grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into a kiss.
And here I am, standing froze and shock on my spot. I couldn't get my eyes away from it, I couldn't move parts of my body, I don't know what to think or even say. I was so shock. Why? Why am I like this? I'd once saw them doing worst than kissing and I wasn't feeling affected at all. But now... at this moment, seeing them just kissing... I feel hurt.
"Get off me!" Sunghoon pushed her away from him and turn around. That's the time he saw me. His face fell and slowly became pale as he looked at me with wide eyes while I just looked at him with blank face.
"Yuna.." he ran towards me and I looked away when he stood in front of me. "Yuna, it's not--" I cutted off his words.
"The guys are waiting for you." I say without looking at him. He tried to reach for my hand but I move it away. I looked at that girl behind him and she raised an eyebrow at me as she gives a sly smirk before she walked away. Leaving me and Sunghoon alone. Bitch.
"Yuna.." Sunghoon called me again and I just turn my head to him, still avoiding to look up to him. I'm afraid he could see anything what I'm feeling right now if I'm going to look at his eyes. "Please look at me." seeing him about place his hand on my chin I stop him.
"Whatever you're trying to explain, it's fine." I finally got the courage to look at him and he looked so worried.  I forced a smile to lessen whatever the weird tension around us and also to show him that i'm fine. Whatever I saw earlier, I don't mind. He shouldn't worry about it. No it's not. "I'm sorry I heard your conversation. I was going to the restroom and then I saw you guys there." I say and he shake his head 'no'.
"Yuna, no not that one. I--" before he could mention it I cutted him off.
"You know what, I think we should head back to the guys now. They might be looking for us at this time." I say, not giving him a chance to speak as I grabbed his hand and pulled him along with me back to the booth.
Hoseok and Jin was singing into a ballad song when we came back and oh boy...I think I've just entered a room of the singing angels. They're voice are so angelic, especially Jin.
Ryu is sitting on the couch. He wave a hand at us, and we walk towards him, taking our seat next to him again. I could feel Sunghoon's eyes on me but I just ignored it and tried to focus my attention to the singing dou in front of me while stuffing my mouth with the chips.
He really want to talk about what I saw earlier but I don't want to listen. What's there to explain? We're just friends. There's nothing wrong if he'll kiss someone. Same as me if ever I get that kind of opportunity.
I try to forget the scene I saw but it just kept playing in my mind over and over again and I hate it. I don't want to think of it anymore. God, what's happening to me?
"are you okay?" Ryu's voice pulled me out of my thoughts and I quickly nodded at him.
"Yeah." I replied and he took a glance at Sunghoon before his eyes goes back to Hoseok and Jin while my eyes landed on the glass of suju on his hand.
And that's the time I became curious to know if what does it taste. Does it taste bad? sour? sweet? or what? Many people said it that alcohol will make you forget whatever your problem is. So if I drink a suju, will I forget it? but it's just temporary though...but at least it will help me forget it even just for a short time.
"Shit."
I heard Sunghoon muttered beside me and he excused himself again. I took a glance on him and saw him talking to someone at his phone as he went outside again and I wonder who would it be this time.
My eyes goes back to the bottle of Suju. No, Yuna. You've never been drunk before. You don't know what will be your behavior when you're drunk. You're just going to embarrass yourself. But you're already eighteen. Still, no. But at least have a taste of it. One shot won't hurt. No, you--
I reach for the bottle of Suju and was about to pour it on an small empty glass but Ryu stopped me.
"Are you sure about that?" He asks and I nodded. "Are you on the legal age to drink?" he asks again.
"I'm already eighteen.. Don't worry." I say, giving him an assuring smile and he stare at me for a second before he finally nodded and let me.
"Just don't drink much. Okay?" he says and I nodded.

Sunghoon's POV
"If I say i'm not coming. I.am.not.coming." I turn off the call without waiting for the other line to speak. We've talking through the phone for ten minutes anyway. It was my dad's secretary telling me about Sohwa's parent having dinner meeting right now at one of our restaurants in Seoul. That bitch is really determinate to marry me.
I'm not going to give her what she want. I let out deep sigh before heading back to the booth. I have to talk to Yuna. I have to tell her that--
Oh no...you gotta be kidding me.
My brain stop working right after opening the door and saw the scene in front of me.
"What the f*ck?" I muttered under my breathe with my eyes wide open due to surprise. I tried to blink few times just to make sure what i'm seeing in front of me is real.
I'm a dangerous man with some money in my pocket
