XO

CHAP: 1

I was 12 years old when I met him. Park Sunghoon. Someone who changed my life completely, I wasn't sure how or what drawed his attention to me but I wouldn't have it any other way. 

"What's your name?" little Sunghoon had asked as we were in line to grab our lunches from the cafeteria of elementary school. I remember jumping at the sudden question at the time I hesitated to answer him. It wasn't rare for someone to prank me or somewhat bully me.

"S-Sunoo, I think"

"You think? Shouldn't you know that?" He laughed 

"Yeah, sorry" I let out and he shook his head at me sticking his hand out to shake mine.

"Don't be sorry, My name is Sunghoon" he introduced and from then on we've been inseparable. Always at each other's houses, sleepovers every weekend, and shared basically everything. Our families even got close so then we could finally start celebrating birthdays, holidays and even vacations together that is if my parents were available to go. We were two peas in a pot and glued to the hip if you will.  9 years later we are still attached at the hip but now we are finally graduating high school, which seemed like an absolute dream. The air outside was cold and crisp getting ready for the winter that was on the way. I yawned as I followed Sunghoon down the sidewalk, it was way too early to attempt to function. It was the first day of the school year and we were both seemed alittle sluggish. We spent most of our summer together completing random side quest that were on our bucket list. 

"I can't wait until mom lets me start driving to school, I hate taking the bus" Sunhoon sighed as we neared the bus stop where we saw other students waiting. I nodded my head thinking about the extra few minutes of sleep that I would get if he would drive us instead taking this bumpy form of transportation.

"That would be nice" I sighed as I closed my eyes imagining myself sleeping in the passenger seat, Sunghoon laughed at me. Crazy to think we're already at the age of driving, Sunghoon got his license freshmen year but his mom was paranoid that he would let the independence get to his head if he drove too early, so she paused his progress of driving his OWN car.

"Is your mom finally letting you buy that car you've been saving up for?" I asked as I saw Jay walking toward us from a distance waving at him as he neared. Jay is a mutual friend that both Sunghoon and I have, though I'm pretty sure that he spends more time with me than Sunghoon. He's the of the top student in our year, whereas Sunghoon is one of the top players on the hockey team. So the girls go crazy over the both of them whenever they're together. There's also Jungwon who's the student body vice president, another heartthrob in the group and then there's me, just Sunoo. The one that hangs around them, I'm usually just their cheerleader.

"No, my father supposedly bought me a car as a Senior graduation gift" he said as he rolled his eyes fixing the sleeve his backpack as he showed Jay a friendly smile. I nodded my head as he mentioned his father, Sunghoon and his father don't usually get along. So it's odd that he's buying him a car, unless there's some sort of condition with it.

"Good morning~" I sang to Jay with a slight smirk causing Jay to shake his head and let out a dramatic sigh as he looked at me.

"I say we sign a petition to get rid of this whole school thing, at least for our senior year. We're not learning anything anyways, just waiting for it all  to end" Jay let out as he looked between me and Sunghoon who just laughed at his words. He wasn't completely wrong though.

"Ladies and gentlemen, your top student!" Sunghoon announced to no one in particular, following it up with an applause from the both of us.

"I may be the top student but I am also human," Jay argued as we saw the bus slowly arrive in the distance.
