Notice Me

1 Crafty Leader

This is NOT my story. All credits go to naeunbiased on asianfanfics.com

It was yet another lonely day for Irene who was all alone in the dorm watching some televisions. It was a free day for the girls. Joy took this opportunity to catch up with her school works while Seulgi and Wendy went out for their usual hangouts and there goes our poor leader. Sometimes Irene wishes that she could control time and reverse it back to 5 years ago where Seulgi only had HER. No Wendy. No Joy. It's not like Irene dislike the two youngest member. Its just that lately, Seulgi and Joy had been flirting with each other too much on screen and during off-screen, it has been always Wendy and Wendy.

When can you notice me, Kang Seulgi? Arent my actions and hints obvious enough? Did you forget our past 5 years? Stop leaving me all alone..-

"We're back~" Irene snapped out of her trance when she heard Wendy's loud voice and looked towards the door where Seuldy was.

"You didnt go out again Joohyun?" Seulgi raised an eyebrown as she greeted a smiling Irene.

Who can i go out with? I only want to go out with you. But you are always sticking with Wendy.

"You know unnie, Seul. She's a homegirl." Wendy joked and placed all their shopping stuff on the ground while Irene mentally rolled her eyes at the younger's presumption.

I wouldn't be one if it wasnt for you.

"Oh right, Joohyun i bought something for you." Irene's eyes tingled as her eyes were fixed onto the bear who was searching among the shopping bags and finally pulled out a purple phone cover, "I noticed your phone cover's spoiled so i bought this for you. Purple, you fav. Hehe."

"Aww, thank you Seulgi." Just this little present from Seulgi makes Irene go crazy and happy as she gladly accepted the phone case.

"That's unfair Kang Sseul. You didnt buy me present when i ask for it earlier on." Wendy, who was watching by the side pouted and glared at her same age friend while Irene was secretly smirking happily, feeling special.

"I did! I bought you chocolates along the way!" Seulgi protested.

"Not that! Plus it's so cheap!!" Wendy pouted, "you didnt buy anything for maknae too!"

"Neither did you!" Unable to fight back, Wendy just walked into back into her room while Irene chunckled at the childish bickering between her member.

"Thats funny." Irene commented while Seulgi looked at the older with a questioning look, "How can you two still be so close after having so many quarrels?"

"Thats how it made our friendship special Joohyun." Seulgi laughed and sat down on the sofa beside the leader.

"What about us?" Irene questioned while having her eyes fixed on the younger who had her eyes fixed in the television.

"Us? We are sisters and bestfriends too!" Seulgi replied cheerfully, unaware of the older's disappointment at her answer.

Yeah. Thats all we are. But not me, i want more, Seulgi.

And Irene was determined to let Seulgi notice her no matter what. When her plan A fails, she would immediately come up with plan B. Who knows that this timid leader would have such a crafty mind behind the scene?

"Wenrene!"
"Wenrene!"

The girls were heading towards Guangzhou, China for their schedule and fans were all present at the airport trying to take glimpse of them where crafty Irene strikes and starts her plan A. Which was to clung and walk together with Wendy. So what is her reason for clinging onto the latter? One, when she clings onto Wendy, it means that there's no Seuldy. Two, to test if Seulgi is jealous.

"Geez, I failed my plan A..!" Irene muttered and groaned to herself softly when she saw Seulgi walking with maknae as if nothing was wrong.

"Huh? Did you say something?" Wendy questioned to which the older immediately shook her head.

It's alright. There's always Plan B. Just you wait Kang, I will make you notice me.

Seulgi was walking towards the van after they had landed at the China airport when all of the sudden she felt a pair of hands on both of her arms and shoulder. The bear looked over her shoulder and saw leader Bae smiling at her then to the fans.

"What are you doing unnie?" Seulgi whispered as the older hugged her closer.

"What do you think?" It just look like Irene's being Seulgi's bodyguard protecting her while Seulgi just raised her eyebrown and shrugged it off thinking that maybe Irene's just doing her usual skinship and enter the van where the maknaes were in already.

"Let's head to the hotel now." Their manager muttered and stepped on the gas, driving the girls off from the airport.

The maknaes who were busy talking about stuffs are sitting at the front seats while the oldests were at the back. Irene intertwined her fingers together with the bear's and placed them on her lap, eaening some curious stare from the latter.

"Are you trying to protect me earlier on?" Seulgi chunckled while the other grinned and nodded, "For? There's nothing that could harm me."

"Thats what you think, babo-yah." Actually, there's really nothing that could harm Seulgi. Its just that the younger was walking alone and for some reason, she looks fragile in Joohyun's eyes.

"Are we staying in the same hotel room together as OT4?" Wendy questioned while the manager shook his head and told them it would be a two-two.

"I want to be in the same room as Seulgi unnie!" Joy immediately shouted which caused Irene to frown and send a glare to the maknae before glancing at the girl beside her.

"Me too!" Wendy joined in to which the oldest groaned again.

Aish... Kang Seulgi, are you a player? How come everyone wants you?!! Ugh.

"Yah! I said it first!" Joy glared at the shorter girl who frowned and looked at Seulgi, "Who do you wanna be roommate with, Sseul?" Seulgi raised her eyebrown at the sudden tensed atmosphere while the other three wait for the answer in eager.

"Joohyun." Irene immediately smirked and cheered inwardly when the younger had chose her without hestitations.

Keke... Look, i didn't even say anything and she chose me, maybe my plan B worked..!

"Awww... Why? We have always been roommates!" Wendy complained while maknae gave up and sat with her pouty lips.

"Seulgi unnie must have gotten tired of you then." Joy teased while the latter glared at her and they started their cute bickerings.

"Sorry i just used you in this awkward momment." Irene's happy and delighted heart now became dead, "Sorry if you dont want to be my rommate. Heheh... you know. My sleeping habits are serious."

Using me?! Tch. What are you Kang Seulgi. Ahh... so it means that my plan B didnt work as well?! Gosh... how hard must i try?

The leader was disappointed at the effort that went down to the drain and groaned out loud suddenly without realising and it made the other younger members jump.

"What's wrong unnie? You dont want to be Seulgi unnie's roomate?" Joy guessed and grinned, "Its okay. You can room with Wendy unnie and i will go with Seul unnie. What do you t-"

"-NO!! I WILL BE WITH SEULGI." Irene interruped the youngest and exclaimed loudly while the two maknaes surrendered and shut their mouth up, looking to the front. And then theres the confuse bear who couldnt even utter a word under the leader's outburst and heavy stare.

Aish... Those two maknaes are dangerous. I will make them notice as well; that Seulgi's mine. Just wait.
