{{THE TRUTH}}

-Dawon-

I reach Taeyang and give him a small smile.

My heart races as I see his confused face.

"What's wrong??"

"C-can we go somewhere else?? Somewhere more private??"

"What? Oh yeah .. sure."

I grab his arm and lead him somewhere.

I don't know exactly where, but somewhere excluded, away from everyone.

Finally I find a classroom that is empty and I shut the door behind us.

When I turn towards Taeyang he looks a bit awkward.

"Uh.. Dawon what happened?? Why are you bringing me here??"

I feel my heart race as I look at him.

A warm blush fills my face.

Embarrassment.

"I.. have something to tell you. I really don't know how to say this I... I.."

I suddenly feel arms around me.

My eyes widen as I notice that Taeyang is hugging me.

He lets go and gives me a wide smile.

"It's ok Dawon, you don't have to force yourself to tell me."

I clench my fist feeling pitiful.

"But I want to tell you. Taeyang.. I'm not what I seem to be. I'm not perfect I... have a big secret."

I look him in the eye, finally feeling confident in what I'm going to say.

"I.. was lonely all my life. You truly were my first friend that I ever had, other than my guardian. I n-never had a family. All my life I spent hiding the fact that I lived at an orphanage, that I WAS and still AM an orphan. I... I'm sorry that I never told you this, I—"

I got caught off by Taeyang drowning me into a hug.

Filled with warmth, love.

"Dawon, you're not my friend because you're king, or because you're 'perfect'. You're my friend because of your personality. Because of your heart. I will never forget that you helped me out. Y-you are my hero."

When he let go I saw that he was crying. Suddenly I felt something go down my cheek.

I wiped it off but more were coming.

And I realized that I too was crying.

"T-Taeyang..."

He gave me a small smile.

"Dawon, you're my best friend. It doesn't bother me that you're not perfect. You know all of my imperfections, and you accept me for who I am. Why wouldn't I?"

I suddenly tackle Taeyang on the floor.

"Taeyang!! Stop making me cry!!"

We both start laughing, when suddenly the door opens.

-Rowoon-

I head to Claire's class, I had gotten her a snack.

As I enter I see a chaos.

Everyone is yelling at each other.

I look around when I spot Claire.

A guy is next to her and she seems to be awestruck.

I feel my hands clench as I head towards them.

'Hi Claire'

"Oh Seokwoo!! Come meet Hwiyoung!!"

I sit next to her and give Hwiyoung a small smile.

He glances at me with a smile and then returns his attention to Claire.

He uses hand language, I turn my head not wanting to be a bother.

"You're Rowoon right?"

I glance back at him and he sends me a smile.

"Yeah, do I know you?"

I see his smile drop and then he nods his head, his attention back on Claire.

Suddenly I get a killer headache, his smile swirling in my head.

Where have I seen it before?!

-Dawon-

"Dawon? Taeyang? What are you two doing??"

I look up and see Jaeyoon and Inseong looking down at us.

I realize the position that Taeyang and I are in and I feel a warm blush rise onto my face.

"Th-this isn't what it looks like!!"

They both look at us with big grins on their faces.

"Inseong go tell Chani!! I'll stay and ask question!!"

"Alrighty, brb bud!!"

I stand up dusting off my pants, Taeyang also stands up wiping dust off of him.

What nasty floors.

As I glance up I see Jaeyoon giving me a big smirk.

"So... Dawon~ I didn't think you'd be that type of guy. I mean nothing wrong with it I'm just surprised is all."

I clench my hand as I see Jaeyoon's smirk.

"Look, I don't have time for this. Like I said before it's not what it looked like."

"Are you sure?? You guys seemed quite um.. intimate y'know?"

I grit my teeth as I look at him.

Suddenly Taeyang speaks up,

"Why are you making it such a big deal? We were just messing around."

Jaeyoon makes a fake shocked expression as he looks at Taeyang.

"What really?? You don't say?? I see you always go for the powerful ones huh?"

I glance at Taeyang and see a warm blush fill his face.

I feel anger surge through me as I look at Jaeyoon.

"Listen here you lil pie—"

"That's enough. What's going on here?"

I look up and I feel fear crawl up my spine.

Chani.
