"EH? Yoona? What are you doing here?"
It was Yoona. She was a best friend of mine before. We haven't contacted each other since ... now, when was it?
"What are YOU doing here?!" Yoona repeated my question.
"I transferred here today. You didn't tell me that you study here." I said, still surprised with Yoona's presence.
"How can I tell you when the last time we met was like 2 years ago." Yoona pointed out.
"You got a point there." I scratched my head attempting to remember the day we last met.
"I heard you had a fight with our Queenka. What happened?" She asked trying to brush off dust on my shoulder.
"Nothing really. All I did was sit beside her so-called prince, who just happened to be my classmate, and then she went bananas. But of course I won. "I said proudly with a wide smile.
"Oh, you're still the same. I see you still stick with your fashion sense. " Yoona looked at me from bottom to top. I always wore my school uniform a bit different than other students. Being unique is what I am. Can't change that habit of mine.
"Yeah. Well at least you did change a bit. I mean your height!" I said realizing Yoona has been gotten taller. She's like a model.
Yoona barely looked any different since she was a little girl. She has been the dreamy girl that every guy wants. She's pretty, smart, lots of aegyo. Even if she wore glasses, she still looks pretty. She's an 'eternal beauty'. And I? I was always the one to chase away whoever makes Yoona uncomfortable. In short, I was her bodyguard.
"Well you're still taller than I am." Yoona said. Now that's a fact. She never beat me when it's about height matters. "Wait! Did you say you're in the same class as Changmin?" Yoona asked for confirmation.
"Well technically I said I'm in the same class as Jessica's 'prince'. But you can say that I'm in the same class as Changmin. Why?" I asked.
"So, you're the only girl that they were talking about!" Yoona shrieked with her wide ping pong eyes.
Wow, rumors do travel fast huh?
"Yeah, yeah. I'm tired hearing that 'The Only Girl' stuff! So, which class are you in?" I changed the topic, bored of the ongoing rumors about me.
"Oh, I'm in class 3-A. As usual." She said. What she meant by 'as usual' is that she's in the top class AGAIN .
"Yoona, you're such a nerd! I pity you." I teased her.
"I'm not!" she pinched my arm angrily.
"Ouch! Okay, okay. I was just joking." I pouted wanting for her sympathy.
"Well, it's not funny." She glared. But then, we both ended up laughing. "Wow, this brings back old memories." Yoona chuckled.
Suddenly, the bell rang signing recess's over.
"Oh, it's time for me to go now. I don't want to be late." Yoona said as she held up her wristwatch to her eyes.
"Yeah, you have always been punctual for anything." I said.
She smiled. "See ya around, okay?" And off she went running by the hallways.
--------------------
On my way back to class, I was suddenly pulled by pairs of hands. I was about to scream when one of them covered my mouth.
"Ssh! We're not gonna hurt you. Okay?" A guy with a ball-looking nose said. There were 3 of them. 2 were grabbing me while the other was walking behind us with a cake on his hand (well, just by looking at his size, we could conclude that he LOVES to eat).
Coincidentally, they took me to the same way to 3-D class. At first I didn't recognize them but then their faces made me recall that of my own classmates.
"Ya! You're my class-dudes right?!" I cried out. But then my mouth was covered again.
"Aigoo. You can't keep your mouth shut, can you?" The other guy hissed.
"Eunhyuk. We need to hurry or else the guys will go ballistic." The ball-looking nose said.
"You're right, Junsu. And you," he indicated it to me "just keep quiet." The Eunhyuk guy said putting his finger on his lips.
"Err, okay." I agreed. Hey, they are my classmates. What's the worst thing they could do?
"Great. Yah, Shindong! Walk faster. We ought to hurry!" Junsu whispered in a dolphin voice.
"Yea yea. I'll try. I don't want my cake to slip." Shindong said, with his mouth stuffed with chocolate cake.
Eunhyuk and Junsu shook their heads at Shindong's reply. Then they continued on to bring me to the I-don't-know-where-they-are-taking-me Ville as if I was a prisoner from Azkaban.
Okay, did I just say a term from Harry Potter?
--------------------
Finally, they stopped dragging me. We were standing right in front of the expected destination: our own classroom.
"You know, I'm in this class too. I could just walk by myself." I pointed out. But they ignored me and checked around the area.
"Line clear. Let's get in!" Eunhyuk said and flung open the door.
"What are you guys trying to-" my line was cut in when suddenly ...
"She's here! Guys, she's here!" a guy who I remembered as Sungmin called out.
"Mwo?!" All the guys were running towards me and they started to drag me into a chair.
Well, not all.
The Giraffe-guy seemed not to care about what the commotion was all about. He was minding his own business. Jaejoong and Yunho were also not joining in as they were discussing about something. The Yoochun guy was nowhere to be seen. There was also someone who caught my eye. He looked like a girl! And he was wearing the pink bunny hair-clip exactly the same as Jaejoong's. Wait, Jaejoong isn't wearing it anymore.
"Ya! Are you deaf?!" someone snapped in front of me, making me startled.
"Eh? What?" I said, dumbfounded.
"Aish ... shincha! C'mon don't play dumb. Spill it out!" some other guy demanded, 'Yesung' written on his name tag.
"Ah, I just noticed! You guys have name tags!" I said happily. So now, I shouldn't be hurting my head remembering all their names.
Suddenly, someone hit my head from the back.
"Ouch! Ya, who did that?!" I turned around. It was Kangin with a tennis racket.
"If you don't want me to hit you again, you better tell us about Yoona, right now!" he said, threatening me with the racket.
"Wait, wait. Easy there. First of all, where's our History Teacher?" I asked as I noticed that the class was quite empty.
"Why do you care about that teacher? If you really wanna know, she got into the hospital because of a prank Donghae pulled off yesterday." Yesung said, pointing at the guy named Donghae.
"Oh ... riiight." I frowned.
"Now, now. I know I'm great. Don't flatter me too much. Let's cut the chase shall we? Tell us, what's your relationship with Im Yoona?" Donghae asked eagerly.
"Urm ... friends? Why are you guys asking me about Yoona?" I crossed my arms with suspicion. Then, all of them were sighing as if I don't know anything what was going on in this school. (Of course I don't!)
"How can you not know when you are her friend? She's-" a guy named Siwon didn't get the chance to finish when the guys chorused,
"-AN ETERNAL BEAUTY!"
"That nickname again? Yoona still being chased by guys, huh?"
"Well, next to Jessica though." Someone said. If I'm not mistaken his name was Cho Kyuhyun.
"Urgh ... our Queenka? The nerds and the stalkers were the only ones clinging on her. We in this class only dated her because she's Miss Popular." A guy next to Kyuhyun said. Leeteuk was his name.
"Woah ... we? How many of you ever dated her?" I said, amazed. All of them raised their hands except Shindong. (and of course Jaejoong, Yunho and Changmin.)
"I'm dating her right now." Someone shouted from afar. It was the guy with Jaejoong's hair clip.
"Shut up, Heechul! Don't brag just because you're the Kingka now." Eunhyuk yelled back at him. Heechul just stuck out his tongue and again ignored us.
"Don't mind him. If you're gonna say 'I thought Jessica likes Changmin', yes she still does. Heechul and Jessica are best friends actually. He is just an unofficial Kingka at this school." Eunyuk explained as if he already knew what I was about to say.
"Wow, you're good. Are you psychic?" I wondered pointlessly when suddenly Yoochun popped out of nowhere.
"I dated Jessica once!" he shrieked like a little kid who just got a lollipop.
"Woah, when did you get in?" Junsu asked him.
"Just awhile ago." He smirked. "So, what are you guys talking about? Huh? Huh?" he asked eagerly. It was annoying but quite cute: a bit. Like a shell in the sea bit.
"You wouldn't like it anyway." Someone who was sitting beside some other guy called Ryeowook (Wow, this is tiring =,=") said. His name tag has Hankyung written on it.
"Aww ..." Yoochun whined.
"Yoona." A guy named Kibum said "We're talking about Yoona." Immediately, the eagerness evaporated from Yoochun's face as he straightened up himself.
"Not interested." He said shortly and left to his seat.
"What's up with that guy? " I asked with my eyes fixed on Yoochun.
"Who? Him?" Hankyung said as I replied him with a nod. "Ahh ... well, the story is-" Hankyung was whispering when Kibum cut in,
"He once tried to hit on Yoona but got dumped. Let's just say it was the most embarrassing moment of his life." Kibum said loudly.
Then, Yoochun stood up saying something at Kibum. I wasn't really sure what they were talking about since they used full English.
(Yoochun vs Ki Bum)
YC: What the. C'mon, she was playing hard-to-get. At least I'm brave enough to ask her out. Rather than you, you just don't have the guts to do anything but to stare at her from afar like those creeps.
KB: Ouch. That really hurts. Boohoo. You're the loser here. Not me.
YC: Me? A loser? As far as I know, last week I beat you in English class.
KB: I was only one mark away from you! And I beat you in English class tons of times than you do. You were lucky because the teacher hates me.
YC: For your information, our teacher hates US! We are always correcting his grammars till he got a high fever.
KB: Well.. but I corrected his vocabulary too!
YC: I did that too.
KB: Nu-uh.
YC: Yeah-uh
Our jaws dropped not understanding a word of what they were arguing about. Even Yunho and Jaejoong stopped discussing for awhile.
"Before I let another drool out of my mouth, can I ask you something?" Ryeowook suddenly faced me.
"Urmm ... sure."
"Does Yoona prefer white roses or red ones?" He asked when the other guys interrupted.
"Yah! Don't get all the credits to yourself!" They yelled with anger.
"Mianhe~" Ryeowook grinned.
"Anyway, Yoona like tough guys like me right?" Kangin asked, pointing at himself.
"No way. She must be the type that likes guys with great height like me, hot like me, macho like me, body-builder like me, and full-package LIKE ME!" Siwon boasted.
Oh God, I thought I was about to puke.
"Yah, there's no way she likes guys like that. She's cute so, she gotta like a cutesy like me." Sungmin said attempting to make a face with his aegyo-ness.
"I'm a lot cuter than you!" Junsu protested, banging the table with his fist. By that, all of them got into a fight just because of Im Yoona, the Eternal Beauty. This is worse than elementary school.
I tried to calm them down, but they wouldn't listen. That's it, I thought. Time to release the beast.
"GUUUYSS!!!!!" I yelled out from the top of my lungs. Every one of them (this even includes Girrafe guy, Jaejoong, Yunho, Heechul, Yoochun and Kibum) were shocked and stopped doing what they're doing.
"Err.. what is it?" Donghae quivered.
I sighed. "I'm sorry to say this but I haven't contacted with Yoona for quite a long time. Although we're friends, she's a secretive person. She never tells me about her taste on guys." I said. There was quite a long silence, then eventually all of them sighed too.
"I just ignored 33 missed calls from my girlfriends just because of this?! What a waste of time." Siwon muttered darkly and left to his seat.
"Argh, my ex-girlfriend just told me she wanted to be with me back. Now, she must have changed her mind!" Yesung slapped his forehead. They were all disappointed and some of them shot me glares. After that, they spread out leaving me with Eunhyuk, Junsu and Shindong.
"Why didn't you tell us earlier?" Junsu nudged me on the arm forcefully.
"Ouch! Yah, I didn't know loads of guys in this class are crazy over Yoona. And I didn't even know she's actually in this school." I retorted.
"Liar liar, skirts on fire." Junsu sang.
Can I kick this guy?
"Junsu, stop it already. So, you really don't know a thing about this school?" Eunhyuk asked. I gave him a vigorous shook.
"Soo ... you don't know that Yoona hasn't dated anyone yet?"
"Mwo?! She's still single?!!"
"Yeap, that's why almost all of the students (guys) want her, and whoever is lucky enough to win her heart, he'll get high-respect from all of us guys." He explained.
"Oh ..."
"You're really a slowpoke, you know." Eunhyuk said.
"And your lack of knowledge about this school basically made your life at stake. You need help." Junsu stated.
"At stake? Why do I need help anyways?"
"Hey, Sooyoung" Shindong finally said something to me.
"Huh?"
"If you want to survive in this school, I think you need our help."
