--------
“You... jerk of all jerks! Yoon Doojoon!”
When Yoseob and Hyunseung arrived on the shore, the crowd of Shinhwa high had already occupied the beach. Spotting the blonde’s arrival, Doojoon approached him with a big satisfied smirk tugging annoyingly on his lips.
Yoseob could only glared as the F4’s Leader coming his way.
“What now?” He growled.
Doojoon is just shameless. “Yah, commoner. Just be honest with me, you’re very happy to meet me here, right?”
Yoseob scrunched his face up, obviously disgusted, “I was very happy before I met you.”
Doojoon snickered, “Really, you shouldn’t talk in opposites.”
Yoseob just rolled his eyes on the words.
“There’s a welcome party for that person,” Doojoon said while pointing to Eunhye. “Since you’re a student of our school, come if you want to. It’ll be fun.”
Yoseob was about to refuse when he heard a deep voice from behind. “You should come.” He turned around to see Dongwoon already making his way back to Eunhye.
It’s tempting in one way, but that kind of party isn’t his scene.
Doojoon winked at Yoseob before leaving, “You can bring your pretty friend too.” Hyunseung cringed at the nickname. Yoseob just shrugged it off.

Yoseob was staring into space when he spoke up, “Hyunseung, do you think I should go?”
Hyunseung took a glance to his mate, he hesitated before he spoke. “Both Doojoon and Dongwoon had already extended their invitation. I think it’ll be rude to refuse.”
Yoseob then faced Hyunseung, giving the most puppy face look he could make. Hyunseung had a bad feeling. “Hyunseung-ahh, would you accompany me to that party?” The blonde said cutely while batting his eyelashes.
“No.”
A plain ‘no’ was what Yoseob got from his request. “No way I’m going to those rich people’s party.” No matter how much he pleaded, Hyunseung would refuse.
“Yah, maybe you’ll probably meet a nice girl!” Yoseob prodded.
Hyunseung tensed a bit and too bad, Yoseob noticed that.
“Omoo, you got your eyes on somebody already? Who? Who?” Yoseob nagged with a curiosity look plastered on his face.
Hyunseung blushed on the question and shook his head vigorously. “No girl had caught my attention, Seobie.” He managed to say it with a solemn face and an even voice.
Yoseob still didn’t want to give up. “Then, an attractive boy maybe?”
Hyunseung burst out the water he was drinking and started choking while Yoseob patted him on the back with a winning smile. “So…. It’s a boy. I never knew boys are your fancy.”
“I never knew they are your fancy too. I saw how you stared at that F4’s Son Dongwoon and apparently their leader also had his eyes on you too,” Hyunseung retorted back.
Yoseob was caught off guard with Hyunseung attack which resulted his face turning red and unconsciously hit his friend’s back a little bit too hard which caused the other choked up even more. “Yah, stop talking nonsense!”
Hyunseung just shrugged him off and got up to head for the kitchen to finish up the dishes. “Sorry, Seob. I won’t go.”
Yoseob just sighed and slumped in defeat into his seat. If Hyunseung already made up his mind, it’ll be impossible to change the reindeer boy’s mind. He’s way too stubborn. Oh, well.
***
Yoseob finally decided to came to the party alone. The party was located at the centre part of the island, in a beautiful cottage. He didn’t know what to wear and came with a T-shirt and a pair of summer pants. But how wrong he was to attend like that, while he stared at the others, who were wearing tuxedos and dresses.
Damn it, I shouldn’t have come in the first place.
Without warning, suddenly he felt a splash on his face.
“Oops. Sorry,” said Dasom who accidentally threw some red liquid onto his body. “Well, I don’t really need to apologize because I’m doing you a favor. Your clothes are hideous.” Dasom giggled with a very annoying tone and then went back to her friends who gave her a high five and started laughing at him.
Yoseob is now covered with some red slushy and everyone was laughing at him. He was not angry, but was feeling very humiliated. He was trying very hard to hold back his tears when a hand with a towel came up to him. He looked up to see his usual knight-in-shining-armor, F4’s Son Dongwoon.
Dongwoon glared to the guilty girl and nearly snarled in his deep voice. “Do you know that this proves how low you are, not him?”
Yoon Eunhye who was behind him spoke too. “Quick, escort him to my room.”
Yoseob was then lead by Dongwoon to Eunhye’s room while there were the other F4s who were watching the scene right from the very start.
Doojoon was late to the blonde’s rescue because Dongwoon beat him to it. “That Dongwoon. Why is he doing these unfathomable things? “ Doojoon mumbled under his breath, unhappy with the turn out of events.
“I don’t know what this is about, but isn’t this fun to watch?” Kikwang stopped giggling when he realized the deadly glare he was receiving from Doojoon.
Junhyung on the other hand, was disappointed when the blonde attended the party alone. He was looking forward to meet the blonde’s friend, who he didn’t know by name. He sighed. Maybe next time.

“Thank you.”
Yoon Eunhye glanced to Yoseob, who is now wearing a decent clean suit.
“No problem,” she said while smiling.
Eunhye was drying Yoseob’s hair when the boy suddenly interrupted, “You don’t have to do this for me. Really, I’ll be fine.”
She gave out a chuckle. “I do enjoy doing this, young man. So, don’t feel burdened.”
“This isn’t a place where I’m supposed to be from the beginning,” Yoseob spoke more to himself.
“Dongwoon invited you right?” Eunhye asked, while tilting her head to the side.
Yoseob was startled by the question. He hesitated for a while, but then nodded in response.
“If you’re Dongwoon’s friend, then you’re a precious friend to me too,” She said with a warm smile.
Yoseob felt uneasy, he waved his hand nervously, “Aish, no way. The invitation was just out of courtesy.”
Eunhye shook her head. “No, Dongwoon isn’t someone like that. And to stand up for someone like this, it’s my very first time seeing he did that.”
“But… Isn’t it his nature to be so attentive?” Yoseob asked innocently.
Now the woman seemed rather surprised, she was fighting to bite back a laugh. “Dongwoon, attentive? See what I mean, that’s because Yoseob is a special person. Anyway, I heard you suffered a lot because of Doojoon. I heard that you swore that you’ll never bow down to him.”
Yoseob smiled half-heartedly, not knowing how to react. “That’s….”
“Because he’s lonely,” Eunhye added.
“What?” Yoseob’s eyes widened a little.
“He’s wrapping his loneliness with violence,” Eunhye commented with a knowing look.
“The F4’s Yoon Doojoon is lonely? That’s not possible.”
“He can only meet his parents once a year. From the moment he was born, he wasn’t a normal son or friend. He was treated as their heir of the Shinhwa company. Can you imagine how it feels?” She paused, “Don’t lose to him.”
“What?” Eunhye sure could say random things in one conversation.
“I like Yoseob, so I’ll cheer you on, so don’t lose to him,” she said while pinching Yoseob’s cheek. Yoseob couldn’t help but crooked out a smile. Eunhye is really a nice person. It wasn’t hard to see why Dongwoon worshiped her.
***
Doojoon was jealous. Yes, he’s admitting to himself that the almighty Doojoon was indeed jealous. He drew out a long sigh before deciding to go outside to catch some fresh air.
Why can’t I be the one who save him?
But then, his anger turned to wussy-boy fear when he saw a bug, and freaked out when it fled towards him. He made wild swatting motions and tried to ward off the bug, jerking around in a panic which unfortunately caused him falling into the pool.
When they returned to the party, there was a commotion near the swimming pool. Yoseob heard some shouting.
“He fell in!” Bora shouted in panic.
Hyorin yelled to the crowd, “Yoon Doojoon-sunbae fell into the pool!”
Yoseob glanced around. “Why is it so unusual? Maybe that bas- guy wanted to take a swim.”
“He can’t.” Eunhye gave Yoseob an anxious look. “One thing that Doojoon can’t do is swim.”
Yoseob couldn’t believe there was no one trying to help the F4’s leader. Everyone’s just watching from the side. He scoffed at the fact not one of these people wouldn’t want to ruin their clothes. And without his brain’s consent, Yoseob’s body moved itself and made him run and jump into the pool. When he finally reached the unconscious victim, he pulled him up with little difficulties to the side of the pool.
Yoseob gave a spank on Doojoon’s face. “Yah! Yoon Doojoon! Open your eyes! Hurry up and breathe you bastard!”
“Yoon Doojoon!”
Doojoon faintly heard an angelic voice chiming in his head, calling out his name. He started to open up his eyes, to see the adorable face located real close to him. He took up his hand to run down the blonde’s hair (that felt hella-good), while putting his lips onto Yoseob. The feeling of his lips brushing against Yoseob felt heavenly. Doojoon had never tasted something that sweet before in his life. The kiss was hinted with a taste of honeydew which Doojoon very much like it.
The blonde who was not prepared for the turnout of event, yelled and slapped Doojoon real hard.
“You deceitful bastard!” He yelled with the ignorance of maybe his spit was raining all over Doojoon.
He quickly released himself from the kiss and kicked the culprit in the stomach and walked away angrily thinking that Doojoon had been faking the whole thing and how idiot he was to help someone like him.
The audiences who watch the scene were left speechless. Especially the hard-core of Doojoon’s fans, their wide open mouth could really touch the floor.
Doojoon innocently looked up to the audience and his face looking exceedingly pleased. “I scored,” he said while giving out a smirk.
Yoseob on the other hand, cursed himself for his stupidity while running his finger through his lips. Cringing at the memory of reminiscing his first kiss.
Shit, there goes my first kiss….
***
Doojoon is now relaxing in his room, while the head servant was panicking that his Young Master may catch a cold.
“Hurry up and bring the warm towels!” He yelled to the other servants. He then turned to his Young Master and asked worriedly, “Do you have a cold, Sir? Should I call Dr. Kim?”
Doojoon looked up innocently to his loyal servant, “What cold? I feel great.”
“Prepare the car. I need to quickly get to school,” Doojoon ordered.
His servant raised an eyebrow. His Young Master had never been not late once in his school life. “You want to leave this early?” Not quite sure he heard right.
“It”s never too early for a student to go to school.” Doojoon said while letting out a chuckle.
Suddenly, a maid spilled the tea she was pouring for his master. Realizing her stupidity, she squeezed her eyes closed, waiting for a punishment. But Doojoon was not paying attention to her mistake. Butler Lee who saw this suddenly spoke, “I will fire this maid immediately, Sir.”
Doojoon raised an eyebrow. “Why? Butler Lee, aren’t you too harsh? Take it easy, take it easy.” He got up from his seat and stretched his arms in the air while facing the big windows.
“Ahh, the weather is so nice,” Doojoon said while thunder was rumbling away in distance.
Both Butler Lee and the servant felt crept out by their Young Master’s good-mood.
