Yeosang still had a hold on my wrist when he dragged me in am empty classroom with the others following us.

One of the closed the door when we all entered and Yeosang let go of me.

"What happened?" Hongjoong asked, Yeosang with concern in his eyes.

"Are you hurt? Everything okay? Did they do something?" Wooyoung holding one hand on my shoulder and the other on my waist as he looked my body over frantically.

"Nothing happened. Everything is okay." I reassured his hands and grabbed his hands gently to make him stop searching my body for some kind of bruise.

"It's not." Yeosang frowned upset.

"Why? Nothing happened?" I was confused and also glanced at the others who also waited for Yeosang to say what bothered him.

"They're flirting!" The blond scowled.

"They're not." I shook my head.

"No, I think he's right." Mingi spoke up and everyone looked at him but he only looked at me "I already told you Joshua is flirting with you. At least he's giving hints."

"It wasn't even Joshua today." Yeosang said just as I had opened my mouth to reply to Mingi "It's Vernon, it's Seungcheol. It's annoying." Yeosang was creasing his eyebrows in anger.

I saw Hongjoong ran his tongue along his inner cheek before biting his lip in thought. He looked at me sighed "If they don't wanna be friends then maybe we should change something about the compromise..?" He suggested, not sure of my reaction because he also didn't want me to get angry.

"Change something? Like what?" I didn't like where this was going.
I don't have any romantic attractions towards Joshua or Vernon or anyone else of them, so why was it a big deal?

"Just.. Maybe," Hongjoong began to shrug "Look for other people to make friends?"

I frowned at the suggestion "Even if, Joshua is still my tutor. I'd see him anyway and it's not like something would happen."

"Aren't your grades good now? Or okay at least? You can fire him." San asked with hope in his eyes as he stepped closer to me.

"Fire him?" I laughed slightly at his choice of words and it drew a smile from all the guys.

"And yeah my grades are better, but I just made new friends." I told them, getting the conversation serious again.

"Doll-"

"Do you trust me?" I interrupted, looking at all of them.

"Yes, of course we do." Jongho spoke for all of them.

"Then please. Trust me. They're just my friends. I won't flirt with them, they won't flirt with me. Nothing." I told them calmly. I wanted to solve this problem and stillake sure everyone is happy with it.

I saw Hongjoong gulp and he looked at the floor for a second before looking at his members, having a silent conversation.

"Yeah, okay. We'll try to not let it get to us." Hongjoong nodded softly and approached me, cupping my face as he kissed my forehead gently and I closed my eyes at the feeling, a relieved sigh falling from my lips.

"But if something happens, we're not waisting a second." Wooyoung told me sternly and I nodded with a smile, giving him a kiss on the cheek which made him grin.

"Okay, then this is settled?" I made sure and the boys nodded.

I smiled at them and we walked out of the classroom.

"Wanna skip this class?" Mingi looked at us as the lesson already started anyway and we'd be late if we show up now.

"Yeah. I don't have the time for detention. We need to do another little mission tomorrow." Hongjoong nodded.

"What do you mean?" I asked him as we walked out of the school building.

"More money, doll. We need it again." Hongjoong explained briefly.

I nodded "What do I need to do?"

"Nothing. Only a few of us will go this time, it's not a big deal." Seongwha told me

"Yunho and Wooyoung will keep you company while we're at it." Hongjoong said as we sat down under the tree we usually sit.

"Oh okay." I nodded and looked at the two mentioned boys who smiled at me.

I know this is really short and late, I'm so sorry!

This story will probably have 50-60 chapters, so we still got a bit to go and I was thinking that I'll stop updating this for a few weeks to write almost all chapters until the end, and then ill publish them (meaning fast updates).

So I can finish this story at the end of the year :)

So there won't be any chapters the next few weeks but when they start again I'll post regularly and many times a week, sounds good?

You've reached the end of published parts.
