The Nerd I Loved (Block B Taeil)

Chapter 5

"But not to half the school," Dara said with a shrug.

"As if your Chanyeol Happy Virus is an angel," I said with a death glare. She started blushing, looking down at her her food.

"Anyways, I don't like Kai. He's, ugh. On the other hand, Taeil's liked you since last year and he'll never disrespect because he seriously likes you. I mean, look at him. He's been there for a year now, and he's still not giving up," Bom told me. I thought over her words.

"But, I'm popular, he's not."

"That really doesn't matter Chaerin, and you'll see that one day."

"But then people will look down to me, I'll lose popularity."

"It won't matter to you, CL. It won't matter at all, because Taeil will make you the happiest girl in the world."

At that, I couldn't respond. I don't even know if this is true, I don't even know why we're talking about this.

"Can we change the subject?" I asked.

"Well, I see you're on the lettuce diet again, Bom," Minzy said. Bom sadly nodded, pouting while stuffing a piece of lettuce into her mouth.

"Fat girl problems.." Dara mumbled. Bom turned to look at her and gasped.

"Yahhhh!" She protested. Dara giggled.

"I'm kidding, Unnie. You're so beautiful," Dara complimented. Bom went back to eating.

"So we have cheer practice today?" I asked. They nodded.

"Guess who's going to the park with Kai after practice," I said with a huge smile. Minzy smiled really big.

"Oh my God, seriously?!" Minzy squealed. I nodded and squealed along with her.

From the corner of my eye, I could see Bom shaking her head. These girls are crazy, why don't they want me to be happy?

"Girls, why do you guys want me with a nerd?" I asked them.

"He's the best for you."

"I'm offended, you guys are saying I'm at his level-"

"Not like that, CL. Plus, there are no levels in love." Dara said. I sighed heavily.

These girls.

Yay, cheer practice, and I hope you heard the sarcasm in there. I decided to take a walk around the school once again, all this drama was tiring me out.

I did end up having a bad day, I even got my phone taken up in exploratory languages. I went to the hallway where the choir room was. Lately, I've been coming here every cheer practice just to hear this person sing. I hate how the door's window is closed so I can't see who it is. But then I don't want them to see me, I'd be embarrassed.

For some reason, the choir door was open and a different voice was singing. They sounded good, but I wasn't expecting to hear theirs. I walked in and saw a boy singing at the top of his lungs, but he stopped a couple of seconds after he noticed me. There were two other boys in there. Maybe one of them were the ones that I would hear everyday, who could it be?

"Hello," the boy said happily. I smiled and bowed.

"Good afternoon, uh, I come here almost every day to listen to someone sing, but I don't know who he is.." I said. The boy looked at me weirdly.

"Well, we three only come practice like once a week, we usually sing at home." He replied.

"So.. you don't have an idea who he could be?" I asked.
