"...and Y/N.  If I were you, it would be best to stay away from me..."
Moving to a new school was difficult for you but even more difficult was the strange boy named Park Jisung.  
To you, he was a puzzle that you couldn't quite solve.
To him, you were the most important person by his side.
To you, he was mysterious.
He had a secret.
You had to find out.  Even if it put your life in danger.
The question was, would you survive?

The cute boy that sat in front of you in science leaned over your desk casually as you were finishing up your notes, his shadow covering up the light so you couldn't see what you were writing.


"Hey, I'm Renjun, Jisung's friend,"  he said, brightly in a soft and surprisingly silky voice.  You looked up to give him your look of bleak disapproval.  


"Hey, I'm Y/N and I'm trying to finish my notes." In the seat beside you, Park Jisung snorted before quickly covering his face with his textbook to hide his blushing.  


Renjun smiled and politely moved over to the side, but he still stayed facing you, waiting patiently until you finished.  When you finally looked up after closing your notebook, he invited you to sit with him at lunch.  


The whole group was made up of a whopping twenty-one boys, although Renjun and Jisung mainly talked to six of them.  You secretly thought all of them looked like they belonged in a kpop group, rather than in school.  And you weren't exactly sure but you swore that every girl's eyes were on you as you sat down, sandwiched between Jisung and Renjun.  


"Y/N, are you doing anything after school, today?" one of the boys, Chenle, asked after you had been introduced to the rest of Renjun's friends. His friendly smile seemed as radiant as the sun and made you feel a bit more comfortable to talk.  At least this was better than sitting at a table alone, and perhaps you would make some new friends, after all.  


"Have YoU HEARd Chenle's LAugh?" One of the boys, you were sure it was Na Jaemin from your math class, shout, "it sounds like a freaking dolphin cleaning a window!" 


Chenle smacked Jaemin on the arm, then leaned over the table, sticking his nose in the book that Jisung was reading.  After all, it seemed to be a good book if he was constantly reading it every time you happened to glance over at him: on the bus, in homeroom, and in between note-taking.  Or maybe it was because he was just trying to be antisocial.  


"Ew, physics? Why out of all things are you reading a physics book?"  Chenle asked, wrinkling his nose in disgust.  The entire table groaned in-unison, obviously just as exasperated as Chenle was.  It seemed like you all had something in common, after all.  


Jisung looked up at Chenle, cooly, his expression just as unreadable as it had been yesterday, "I like physics," he stated, flatly.  Then he went back to reading just as ardently as he had been before he was interrupted.  You found yourself smiling.  Weirdo.  


*I'm surrounded by dolphins, good looking boys, and weirdos.  I like them all, so I guess I belong, here.  


From the corner of your eye, you swore that you saw one of the boys, Lee Jeno from your art class, fake–gag at Jisung, and you giggled at his cuteness.  He caught you watching and gave you the most adorable eye smile, ever.  Jeno was cute.
