Recap:
'Isn't that Johnny?'
.
.
She had squinted as she took a closer look at the boy, it was no doubt him. His hair the same shade of brown and his voice still coated in sarcasm. But wait, what was he doing here? He hadn't replied back to her texts or once called her throughout the entire week.
Hyerin thought he was upset or angry about something, but he looked perfectly fine from the looks of it. She looked at him in disbelief.
'Wow.' She huffed in frustration, if he was doing so well, why couldn't he just reply to at least one of her texts. I mean it wasn't that hard to do surely.
"Hyerin!!"
A short, petite girl shouted as she met Hyerin's gaze, fast walking towards her desk, her hands full of different kinds of snacks and drinks. This caused the group of boys to look at them before concentrating back on whatever topic they were talking about prior. However, Johnny continued to direct his gaze towards them, silently watching their interaction.
"Minhee, why do you have all of these?" Hyerin questioned the younger girl as she dumped all of the food onto the desk, panting as if she just ran a marathon.
"Well, you see." She spoke momentarily before panting once more. " remember how you were upset? Well I thought that these would cheer you up." The girl clutched the desk as she leant on it ,giving Hyerin a toothy grin as she proceeded to grab various items and hand it to the elder.
Hyerin was touched, well she would never show it though, she replied by sending her a warm smile before collecting the strawberry milk and pocky from the girl's hands.At least Minhee was here.
Johnny watched as the two girls talked, jealousy starting to rise up. He knew he shouldn't be jealous because he was the one that left out of no where and ignored her. But he couldn't help but feel displeasure each time Hyerin smiled, ignoring his presence.
'So this is how she felt like.' He bitterly thought as he looked back at the boys next to him.

Things continued like this ever since Johnny began hanging out with the other boys. He would walk to school with Taeil and winwin, hang around Yuta, Jaehyun and Taeyong in the halls and pass notes with Doyoung, Donghyuck and Mark during Spanish. He began distancing himself from Hyerin and would always find excuses to not hang out.
Hyerin wasn't the type to tell someone her true feelings so she would awlays pretend that she understood and basically allowed him to bail on every occasion they got together.Hyerin and johnny would still walk home, but that was about it. She wouldn't bother texting him anymore. They still waved at each other in school and greeted whenever they saw the other in the hallway but it wasn't the same.

Hyerin woke up excitedly, it was May 25th. This meant that not only was it the end of their finals week, but also her birthday. Normally, she wouldn't even care if it was her birthday, but she was finally turning 17. She wouldn't be labelled as a child anymore.
Unlocking her phone, she had received various messages from her classmates that wished her a happy birthday. She didn't open them however as she didn't have time to respond, mentally thanking them in her head. Months back, her and Johnny had each gotten tickets to comic con, both promising to dress up as characters from attack on titan. Johnny being the collosal titan and Hyerin dressing up as Sasha. She was beyond excited, it would probably be her favourite event in the entirety of her life, besides the Panic! At the disco concert which she and Johnny attended 2 years ago.
Immediately, she opened up her contacts and phoned Johnny. She couldn't wait to show him how the Sasha costume looked on her. After a few seconds of ringing, he had finally picked up.
● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●
"Hey Johnny are you excited? You finally get to be your own kind. A titan dressing up as a titan. The irony."
There was a short silence at the end of the line.
"Uhhhh hello? Are you there?"
"Yeah sorry, happy birthday by the way....... Um about today, I can't make it. I'm sorry"
Hyerin's smile faded as she looked down in distaste, she could understand why he couldn't make it before , she knows that the world doesn't centre around her, but all she was asking was for her and her best friend actually having time alone to catch up. She missed him.
"Johnny... really? You just tell me now. You couldn't have told me before before I fucking wasted my money on this costume? I mean when do you have time for me? If you don't like me as a friend anymore just tell it to my fucking face instead instead of making lame excuses."
Her voice was filled with dismay rather than anger, her eyes tearing up with disenchantment.
"Hyerin... I really am sorry."
● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●
The line disconnected as her phone beeped. He even had the audacity to hang up on her.
'What an asshole.' She bitterly smiled to herself whilst throwing her phone on the bed. At least she had the time to bake a fucking cake for his birthday, while he didn't give two flying shits when it was hers.
'So this is the result out of a 10 year friendship.'
She clicked her tongue and wiped away her stray tears. She didn't have time to cry over asshole like Johnny Seo. He wasn't worth her time. If he didn't have time to be with her, why should she make time to be with him?
"I would rather spend one lifetime with you, than face all the ages of this world alone."
The quote made her sick to her stomach, the very thought of him made her sick.
Johnny Seo

"Johnny!"
The petite , cheerful girl ran over to the tall male who was placed on the old, wooden swings that lay centered in the park. Her arms waving up and down as she tried to gain his attention. The boy looked up from his phone to face her, a playful smile staining his features.
"Hyerin, you're actually on time for once, what a surprise!" His voice oozing with sarcasm as Hyerin jokingly punched his shoulder.
"Bitch." Her face wearing a warm smile contrasting her brash words.
Johnny had asked her to hang out that night, why her best friend suddenly had the urge to eat ice cream at 2am was a mystery to her, nevertheless she complied his wishes.
Taking a seat next to him on the swing set, she asked.
"Where are we going now?" Turning to face the girl, Johnny put his finger against his lips as he replied.
"It's a surprise! You would have to wait and see." His face serious as he gestured for her to cover her eyes.
Sighing, Hyerin followed his instruction and shut her eyes close. Suddenly, she felt her hand being intertwined with another - assuming it was Johnny - she held it tightly . Getting up from the swings, Johnny carefully guided her, walking slowly to make sure she wasn't about to fall over something. Step by step, Hyerin became more curious, however before she could question him he announced their arrival.
"Open your eyes."
Slowly, Hyerin uncovered her eyes, the light hitting her as she tried to adjust to the new setting.
As she surveyed the area, she found herself in awe, they had arrived in front of her favourite café, it was open 24/7 and they even provided the customers with different books and comics whilst they ate and drank. Hyerin was delighted as she immediately ran inside, dragging Johnny along with her. How he knows her so well was surprising.
They had chosen a couch that was near the windows, allowing them the view of the surroundings and greenery. After forcing Johnny to order and pay, Hyerin grabbed a comic from the shelf behind her, beginning to read it as she waited for Johnny to come back.
She was suddenly interrupted when a loud bang echoed the room, the view of bubble tea and fries seen from her peripheral vision. Exclaiming in delight, she shut the manga close and focused her attention on the food in front of her. Oh how she missed nights like these, eating good food and spilling all the good tea that occurred during school. Stuffing a fry into her mouth, she watched as Johnny sat down before her, beginning to rant about something that would not likely interest her, however she chose to listen to it anyway.
"Okay so calc sucked. There was this bitch called Chittaporn or some shit like that , and basically he fucking made me get a low score in our project because his bitch ass-"
As Johnny was oh so passionately explaining the occurrences of his day, Hyerin couldn't help but notice all the little things about him. Like how his hands would make gestures as he talked, how he would always talk with so much emotion, how his lips looked so-
Her thoughts were interrupted as the taller male waved his hand up and down in front of her to get her attention. Snapping out of it she focused her gaze on him.
"You okay Hyerin? You keep daydreaming, am I that boring?!" Johnny exclaimed in shock, completely dramatising his words. His hands coming up to clutch his chest, as if he was struck with pain.
Rolling her eyes, Hyerin playfully threw a fry at him, which he managed to dodge.
"Just continue talking idiot." Her hands once again finding the food below her.
The night was eventful to say the least, after recieving glares from the cashier for being loud, they had checked the time and decided to go back, after all they did still have school the following day. Johnny had offered to walk her home, which she kindly declined, however he did so anyway. Which made her question why he would keep asking at this point.
They had made it to her door step -which took them longer than usual because Johnny was complaining about how he was full and couldn't walk- Hyerin turned around to the boy.
"See you tommorow."Her hands making a small wave as she unlocked her door, her back facing the boy.
Johnny's gaze directed to the floor as his smile dropped. He cleared his voice before replying.
"Yeah." His voice strained but he tried his best to cover it up. He waved back as Hyerin entered her house, leaving the boy on the porch.
"I hope so." He whispered as he finally turned around to leave. His head lowered in disappointment.

It was 8:40 as Hyerin ran down the streets, her cup of coffee still warm from this morning. She had forgotten (again) to set her alarm the night before. She really needed to get into the habit of setting it.
Dodging the people who walked by, she managed to get inside the gates on time, the teacher adjacent to it glaring at her. Giving him a cheeky smile, she thankfully bowed as she dashed to her classroom.
'Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.'
She wasn't late however, as her form teacher hadn't shown up yet, which was quite convenient. Panting as she reached the door entry, she scanned the room for any traces of Johnny. Her eyes skimmed the room, however all she saw were unfamiliar faces, non of which were Johnny. She sighed (she tends to do that a lot nowadays) as she trudged over to her desk, taking a sip from her cup. Hopefully she hadn't forgotten any of her books, she wasn't in the mood for detention today.
"Hyerin?" An unfamiliar voice called out to her as she began to un pack her bag. Turning around, her eyes met another pair. The male was quite short -in her opinion- yet his angelic features lit up and his eyes sparkled with cheerfulness. Confused as to why this ethereal being decided to call out to her, she looked around them to check if he was speaking to her before facing the male once more.
"Yeah?" She scrunched up her brows in confusion as she questioned the male.
The boy scratched the back of his neck as he contemplated whether or not to ask her.
"Um, have you seen Johnny? He hasn't replied to any of my calls and we have a group meeting today."
That was strange, no, it was really strange. Johnny was the type to answer his phone straight away, so if he hadn't picked up something must have been wrong.
Hyerin looked dumbfounded before replying back. " Sorry I haven't, uh who are you?"
His eyes widened in realisation as repeatedly bowed.
"Sorry for not introducing myself, I'm moon taeil "
The male stuck his hand out gesturing for her to shake it, in which she did so.
"Well I'll ask him to call you back." Hyerin replied to him, still not believing the current endeavour. The boy's features lit up once more as he smiled warmly at her, nodding towards her as he made his way to the other end of the room.
Hyerin felt suspicious, bringing out her phone to text Johnny.
Sent to: Johnny
Where are you?
Seen at 8:44am
Hyerin scoffed and sent him another message.
Sent to: Johnny
Hello? Don't just see my text and not reply
Seen at 8:44am
Hyerin scoffed in disbelief, whatever happened to him must have been awful for him to leave her at read. He wouldn't just do this with no reason. She knew that people have their privacy and she knew not to pry, but how could she not be concerned for her best friend?
Huffing, Hyerin shut her phone off and slid it into her pocket as her teacher walked into the room. She would not enjoy today.

It had been a week, and Johnny had still not returned to school, even managing to ignore all of Hyerin's texts. She was beyond anxious now, what if something bad happened to him? The past week was terrible, she had no one to rant to and to pick on. Minhee tried her best to cheer her up, however nothing seemed to brighten the girl's mood.
Hyerin walked into class, her feet dragging across the floor as her shoulders slumped. She sighed.
'Another day and I feel like shit.'
She made her way to the back of the class, choosing to sit in the corner, deciding that she was going to act like an anime character. She set her bag down and gazed outside the window, lost in her thoughts. She didn't know what happened to Johnny and why he was avoiding her texts, at least she didn't feel lonely with Minhee around and keeping her company. She yawned as she layed her head on the table, the drowsiness taking over.
Bang!!
Hyerin looked up as the door to the classroom slammed open, revealing a bunch of rowdy boys who came scurrying inside, their obnoxious laughter filling the air. Hyerin rolled her eyes as she lowered her head back down onto the desk.
'Some loud jackasses' She scowled as they had interrupted her nap.
The loud commotion in the room died down as the boys huddled around a single desk, the classmates's stares averting back to their original focus. However the nine boys soon broke the silence as the noise returned. Hyerin groaned as she lifted her head up, ready to scold the living shit out of them when they suddenly started talking.
"That was amazing. Who knew Johnny could run like that?"
One of the boys spoke aloud, brushing his silver hair back, his face full of amusement. The rest of them nodded in agreement before a taller male had stood up, rolling his eyes.
"Whatever do you mean? If I tried ,I could possibly beat Usain bolt for all you low peasants would know."
His finger pointed accusingly at every one of them as feigned gasps of shock filled the air.
'Wait a minute.' Hyerin thought to herself, she glanced at the male from afar.
'Isn't that Johnny?'
