.
Things had been great. You were meeting up with Xuimin in school. And he paid all your guards to shut up and let him meet you. The guards knew for a fact that if your brothers found out, they will be fired. But who could refuse money.

You honestly found it greedy and stupid. They were paid very well. But it's true that a man can never be satisfied.

You weren't complaining tho (okay you were because your brothers had hired the worst staff), but at least You were able to meet Xuimin everyday, in lunch break, behind the school.

It'd been a month, you both were dating. He'd spoil you with gifts but you would refuse and he wouldn't listen. No, both of you haven't kissed each other on the lips. And he seemed to understand that you wanted to take things slow. Which you were thankful for.

About things at home, they weren't any better. Your brothers were showing you the cold shoulder. You seriously wanted them to treat you the way they used to. You wanted them to spoil you. You wanted them to hug you, cuddle with you, drop you to school. But now it's just small talks. And they don't seem to feel guilty at all.

Right now, you were heading behind your school to meet Xuimin, along with your guards. "Babe!" You chuckled as you heard his excited voice. "Hi!" You chirped. He pulled you in a hug, kissing the top of your head. "Had food?" He asked. "No...I will once I go back" You said.

"You should've eaten food first..." He pouted. This wasn't the first time he reminded you to eat your food before meeting him. But your appetite just disappears out of excitement every time recess starts. "I was excited to meet you" You chuckled, pecking his cheek.

He hugged you from the side as you melted in his embrace. "So, how was school till now?" He asked. "Pretty well...we had a test, I helped Sangmin cheat" You chuckled. Yes, you and Sangmin now had Social Science and Math together as well. Just a change of time table.

"I hate that you hang out with that guy" He puckered up his lips into a pre-cry pout. "Aish...he knows I'm dating you. He's happy for us..." You flashed a smile. "If he tries to flirt with you, Imma kill him for real..." Xiumin pulled out 2 fingers from his fist, closing one eye, pretending to use a gun.

You laughed. "Don't you have a real gun?" You slapped his 'gun'

"Yeah it's in the car" He smirked. "So, what were you saying? You'll kill my only friend huh?" You raised a brow. "Only if he tries to steal you from me" You chuckled. "He won't...we're just friends" You smiled.

He kissed your cheek. "No one will steal you from me" He possessively said. "That's what I said first baby" You winked.

"I got to go now...class is about to start and I even have to eat. I'll see you later, bub" You kissed his cheek. "Okay then love...bye!" He waved as you made your way to class.

Twirling your pen around your fingers, you sighed. Chemistry sucks...for real. You were so in the mood to bunk, plus you didn't even do the homework. And the teacher could arrive any minute.

You pulled out the phone Xuimin gave you and opened Snapchat. You decided to track your boyfriend to see if he's busy. And if he wasn't, you could've simply called him.

Behind the school? Still? It's been 20 minutes, what's he doing there?

You frowned. Well, if he was there, then good for you! You picked your bag and headed out before your teacher could see you.

—

Your shoes were tapping on the concrete ground as you made your way to the dead end. Basically your hang out point.

"Babe!? What're you doing here? Don't you have class??" Xuimin asked, keeping his phone back in his pocket. "Oh, yeah...it was a free period...so I saw where you were on the snapmap and came to see you again" You flashed a smile. "Ah, ok" He kissed your forehead. "But, you won't get in trouble, right?" He asked, concerned.

"Aish...no baby...everyone is bunking..."

— (Meanwhile)

"Y/n? Can you answer this?" The teacher spoke up as the students look at each other. "Kim Y/n, mind answering this question" She tapped the marker on the board, scanning the classroom, looking for you. "She didn't come again?" A sigh escaped the old female's lips.

—
"Listen..I was thinking that we should tell about us to your brothers..." He looked at you. "I'm scared Xuimin. They probably hate me, from what happened on my birthday. I'm scared they will hurt you..." You sighed. "But till when are we gonna hide it?" He asked.

"Honestly, I don't know..." You sighed. "Babe what do you mea-

"Xuimin...please...when time comes, I'll manage to convince them" You sighed. "Fine" He huffed. "Wanna have ice cream?" He asked. "My treat" You said. "No, mine." He protested.

"Nooo!! Mine!!" He whined. "I'm going back to class" You turn on your heels, sassily only to be pulled back. "Okay fine!" He pouted in defeat. You chuckled before holding his hand, leading him to the ice cream parlor.

—
"Miss Y/n, we're here" Your bodyguard opened the door as you got out. "Thanks Danwoo Oppa..." You smiled. "Miss Y/n...Uhh...Mr. Xuimin told me to inform you that he won't come to your school tomorrow..." He sighed. "O-oh...why didn't he tell me" You mumbled. "Thanks anyway" You smiled, making your way to your house.

Your shoes clicked on the floor as the guards opened the gate for you. You rang the bell and the door opened. You saw your maid as you flashed a small smile to which she responded with a sad face. "What's wrong Aunty?" You asked. "Uh...nothing is...your brothers are expecting you in the meeting room." She said.

"Oh..thanks for informing" You flashed a small smile to the maid before entering the mansion.

.

You made your way to the brown door, through the dimly lit hallways. Your finger bones made their way to the door, as you hesitantly tapped against the brown surface, making a soft noise. "Come in"

After getting the signal from Namjoon, you opened the door and entered as you saw your brothers sitting on either sides of the long, transparent table. "O-Oppa...you called...?" Jin nodded. "Sit" Namjoon signaled one of the empty chairs with his eyes. You nodded as you clutched your backpack's strap, making your way towards the duo.

Jin started fidgeting with the flower pot kept on the table in an intimidating manner. "Me and Namjoon were in a meeting sis, and we suddenly got a call"

His gaze was glued to the brown object, as he kept touching the bright green leaves with his fingers, making you more anxious.

"And wanna know what was the call about?" Namjoon smirked. "W-What...?" Your gaze automatically lowered to the ground. A snickered escaped Jin's lips as he now looked at you, eyes piercing through your soul. "You bunking your class" Jin said.

Your eyes widened. Did the guards tell them?! But Xuimin had paid them to shut up. Plus, you did too...so what happened?

"How did we know?" Almost as if they read your mind, Namjoon asked. "Your teacher called. She said you'd been skipping chemistry for a week now" Jin said.

"So, where the fuck do you go when you're not in class?" Namjoon asked.

"I-I...Uhh...I..." Unable to form words to speak, you fidgeted with your fingers. "Answer, Y/n..." Jin said. "I'm sorry okay! I can't understand chemistry! It used to be better when both of you weren't mad at me! But ever since my stupid birthday party, y'all hate me because of that dumb shit I did!" You huffed.

For a second, there was a spark of concern in their eyes before their eyes softened. A tear escaped your eyes.

"I'm sorry okay...I would've stayed away if I knew you would hate me after that!" You sobbed. "Y/n...w-we're sorry...A-And we don't hate you...we can't..." Namjoon said. "Y-Yeah y/n...sorry...I swear I don't know what I was thinking...I was just so angry at you that I wasn't even thinking. I'm so sorry..." Jin sighed.

"Wait...so...y-you forgive me...?" You asked in disbelief. "Well, we weren't planning to...but you're too distracted. So...I guess this is another chance..." Namjoon smiled.

"We're trusting you Y/n...again...so don't break it..." Jin sighed. "I-I won't..." You hesitantly nodded. You love Xuimin. And you knew that you were lying to them again but you couldn't help it. Your love for Xuimin had made you blind. And you knew it.
