Chapter 8

Maki entered class the next day, she was surprised to only see Hyo in class, "Where is Sanny?" she asked.
Hyo looked up at her, "I think she's sick today."
"Oh...Are you ok?"
Hyo gave her a weird look and nodded Maki didn't press any further and just went to her seat. Things were quiet between them during lunch as well. Finally Maki couldn't take it anymore. "Hyo this is really annoying. What's wrong with you?"
He sighed, "I joined one of the groups that had asked me."
"Ok, did they threathen you?"
"No actually they were really nice about it."
"Who did you join?"
"I can't tell you yet...actually I'm going to be gone for the next week. Will you be ok by yourself?" he asked worriedly. Maki laughed out loud at his question, he laughed with her. "Yeah stupid question...I'm going to go visit Sanny later, want to come with me?"
"I can't I have some errands that I need to run..." She suddenly leaned across the table to him, "You like Sanny don't you?" she asked her eyes glinting with curiosity.
"ANNIYO!!" he yelled at her. She sat back and stared at him.
"Just asking...gosh." She asked him about the new Naruto manga to divert his attention and embarassment away from that last one.

Jae Joong watched them from across the cafeteria. It pissed him off that she was laughing with the guy, his total opposite. Why wouldn't she even give him a glance?!
"Jae Joong what's wrong?" Hye Su asked him, bringing him out of his complicated thoughts.
"Huh?" he asked looking at her, she grabbed his right hand and tried to loosen his fingers. He looked down at what she was doing, he hadn't realized that he had a death grip on his water bottle. He let go and everyone could see that the water bottle was crushed beyond repair from Jae Joong's grip. You could see where his fingers were...He looked at the guys and they all had concerned looks on their faces.

"Go take a walk hyung." Yunho suggested to his best friend. Jae Joong looked at Yunho and nodded, he stood up and left. Hye Su watched for about 2 seconds once the doors shut after them, then she quickly jumped out of her seat as well and ran after him.
"She's going to make it worse..." Yoochun muttered under his breath.
"What's wrong with Jae Joong?" Yuri asked.
The guys just shrugged, they weren't sure...and if Jae Joong himself wasn't sure...there was no point in pushing it. "He just needs some space to think. He'll come around eventually." Changmin threw in, he looked at the doors that Jae Joong and Hye Su walked out of, he prayed that his hyung figured his heart out...and soon.

Hye Su ran out of the cafeteria and saw Jae Joong as he walked out of the front doors of the school building. She ran after him trying to keep her distance from him. She watched as he walked to an abandoned part of the school and entered it. She quietly followed him but lost him when he turned a corner. Hye Su searched everywhere, finally she made it to the top of the building, she saw a bunch of cots littering the building's roof. She saw Jae Joong's long, lean body laying on one of them. One of his hand behind his head. She walked over to him, he was already sound asleep. She followed the straightness of his nose to his kissworthy lips. She's always wanted to experience a kiss from him. She had always been jealous of girls who had the chance to kiss him...squealing in the bathroom of the clubs and boasting about his kiss. It made her sick...to the point that she'd kick their asses, it made her feel better, but she still wanted to feel his lips against hers.

Hye Su leaned in closer to him, her lips inches away from his. Suddenly his eyes flew open, "What are you doing?" he asked.
She quickly stood up straight, "Nothing I just came to check on you. You're creeping everyone out..."
"Why did you follow me?"
"I told you, to check on you." He sighed and swung his legs over the side of the cot and stood up. He started to walk away from her. She grabbed his arm, "WHY WON'T YOU GIVE ME A CHANCE?!" she yelled.
"I don't date people from our school, you know that."
"You've known me for how long?! We're perfect for each other Jae Joong! Why won't you give me a chance?!" she asked again.
He pulled his arm from her grasp, "I just can't Hye Su...please understand that." He walked away from her. Tears filled her eyes and spilled down her cheeks. She didn't know who she was angry at? Jae Joong for still denying her or herself...for loving a bastard that cared nothing for her.

The day was finally over and Maki was glad to be going home. She stretched her arms as she walked out of her classroom, she made her way towards the front entrance when she passed by the bathroom. "Well...might as well make a pitstop before the walk home." she walked into the bathroom and heard some girls talking, she stopped behind the wall when she heard them mention Sanny's name.
"That little bitch skipped school today."
"She must think that school grounds is the only place where we can harass her."
"Idiot...we'll do whatever it takes to make her join us. You guys ready? We need to hurry up and get over there. The other's should already be on their way there."
