💖True Colors✨

Based off of those stories where the people's hair change colour based on their feelings.

________

It's always been difficult. To live with something you can't get rid of. There is no lying when you immediately show how you feel. People hate when you can't lie. But then again lying is bad, but no one truly believes that. Lying is how you get around sometimes, the truth is always hidden and doesn't ever come out. 

No one would want to live the truth, but it's just how you live. 

You walk into your high school. Everyone like always is whispering about you. You feel embarrassed so like every morning, your hair is red. 

Red- Anger, Passion, Lust or in this case... Embarrassment.

And not the kind that is associated with any of those other representations. 

You go to your classroom moving to the side as people go by you. You go to your desk, its in the back, whenever you sit in the front... It's a distraction. The thought has you sighing and your hair going to Grey.

Grey- Depression, Regular Sadness, or stoicism

Maybe it's a little of all three in this sigh. 

As you sit lost in thoughts your attention isn't on the creeping person coming up to you, but then in a flash, you see white as you jump. 

White- Shock, fear, coldness, or mournfulness.

It's obvious which two had gone on with this hair, you hear a small laugh and turn. It's your best friend and your hair goes red.

"Yah! I could've had a heart attack!" You say and he chuckles sitting next to you in his seat as you smack him lightly and he whines a bit. Your hair goes yellow.

Yellow- Cowardice, happiness, or caution.

Maybe not Cowardice, and a little bit of happiness... Well, a lot of happiness for this one. You don't have many friends, but your best friend is all you really need.

"Yellow is a good colour, you should stay this way." He says as he reaches up and pats your head as you chuckled.

"If I wanted to keep a hair colour it'd be black cause out of all colours it seems more normal, and I would if I could, but obviously I can't." You say. He shakes his head as he reaches into his back and brings out a juice box and pops the straw in it before he sets it on your desk.

"I can't have you feeling coldness and mournfulness, what kind of best friend would I be?" He says and you smiled, your hair remaining yellow.

"I can always count on you to make me the sunflower in the classroom, Minhyuk." You say and he smiles before the small tone of class starting goes off and you drink your juice and put it on the corner of your desk and open your things.

As you know with colour changing hair, school life just isn't normal. Which means having a crush is the worst possible thing you could have.

You're walking with Minhyuk in the cafeteria when you bump into someone and stumble a bit.

"Ah, I'm sorry." You say, your head is red for embarrassment, but when you see who you bumped into its turn blue.

Blue- Shyness, sadness, or calmness.

In this case, it's shyness.

"Are you okay?" He asks and you nod your head looking away. He is confused as he gets into your field of vision and you look to him and your hair turns pink.

Pink, the forbidden colour. The colour you hate most of all the colours.

Pink- Cheeriness, embarrassment, or love.

Park Jinwoo is the one anyone would turn pink for. A lot of people like him, and it's their faces that turn pink, but you are so lucky you can do both.

"Yeah! Yup! Fine thanks." You say as you look away. Minhyuk watches sucking in his bottom lip holding his laughter. Jinwoo nods his head and then someone else comes to join. 

"Well looky here at Princess Pink." You look back and your hair goes yellow, cowardice, as you move towards Minhyuk.

"Aw, don't be scared. I think she likes you Jinwoo." Kim Doyeon says. Jinwoo looks to Doyeon and then you before he shrugs a bit. Doyeon smiles as she grabs his hand and then began to pull him along. Minhyuk isn't laughing anymore as he looks to you.

"Let's go sit now." He says and you nod your head. Kim Doyeon was like your typical bully. She has it all, even a hair colour changing weird to pick on and make fun of. She has always been like this since you were small, people found it cool when you were little, but she made them change their minds because your hair was pink. You were feeling cheeriness as a child loved by all so you loved them. Nothing in a crushing way, but that's what she told them. Now everyone thinks your a weirdo. You feel grey the whole day it sucks. Maybe there was a moment of Yellow from Minhyuk, but the rest of the day was grey.

But at the end of the day you saw Jinwoo at the gate of the school and do your best to maintain your grey, but it goes blue when he stands in front of you and you look up to him and he smiles.

"Wanna hang out." He says and your eyes widened as your hair goes pink and he smiles as he grabbed your hand and pulled you along, you were confused, but you went along. 

The rest of the day was magical. It was like a dream, he was so nice, and the two of you were out and about for a while, going places he knew, but you didn't or somewhere you went to and he wanted to know what it was. He even walked you home. You stand at your doorstep your hair still pink as you look to him and he smiles at you softly.

"Today was fun, I'm glad we could hang out." You say and he nods his head. 

"See you tomorrow." He says and you nod your head enthusiastically and you look at each other before you wave and turn opening the door and going in. Soon he walked away as well. Maybe it was because Doyeon made you upset and it was the apology or maybe there was some spark. It made you happy to spend the day with him. You were gonna dream well and have a good day tomorrow.

But only one of those things were possible.

When you got to school you were still pink as you went into the classroom and Minhyuk blinked as he looked to you. 

"Did you run into Jinwoo on your way in?" He says and you blush as you nudge him.

"No. We actually spent the day together." You say and he blinks. 

"Ah ha ha, very funny." He says and you smile. He knows you aren't lying as his expression goes confused.

"Seriously? What was the catch?" He says and you blink as you shrug.

"It was probably the apology without an actual apology for Doyeon." You say, but your hair stays pink and he takes notice to that.

"So even knowing that you're happy?" He says and you nod your head.

"Who wouldn't be happy spending a day with him? It's Park Jinwoo, he' sweet, and funny and cute." You say as your face scrunched with a blush. Minhyuk rolls his eyes and nods his head.

"He's also dating Doyeon, I say its fake." He says and you pout a bit at him. He then looks to you and sighs as he holds his hands up and you smile happily.

At lunchtime, the smile disappeared. 

"Wah, so your hair has been pink for a while," Doyeon says as she came up behind you while you at with Minhyuk. Behind her is Jinwoo with his hands in his hoodie.

"It's pretty isn't it," Minhyuk says and Doyeon looks to him and scoffs.

"If it's so pretty, go dye your hair, but stay out of it, I'm not talking to you." She says as she glares to him and he glares back. She looks back to you and puts on a fake smile.

"I hope you don't take yesterday too seriously sweetheart." She says as she grabs a piece of your hair and twirls it on her finger as you freeze.

"It was nothing." She says and you look to Jinwoo who is just watching. She then turned to him and smiled.

"Right?" She asks and he nods his head. And she smiles happily.

"It was just a hangout, I wanted to see your hair change colour more." He says as he chuckles and your eyes widened and Doyeon looks to you.

"Boo-hoo, you didn't get the guy." She says and then everyone watches as your hair goes black and Minhyuks eyes widened, grey was okay, cause he could cheer you up, but it took a lot to chance black in an instant.

"Wah, you look normal now," Doyeon says as a few people chuckle and then she looks to Minhyuk.

"Sorry, I took the pink away from her, here let me try to change it." She says as she turns and grabs strawberry milk off of someone else's tray and then opens it pouring it on your head as you sink down more and close your eyes as more people laugh. Then she walks away with Jinwoo who is still unfazed by the events like he knew they would happen. 

"(Y/n) come-"

You stand up and keep your head down as you run to the bathroom. So much for a good day.

The next day everyone was talking about it, laughing at you, making comments on how normal you looked, they even make fun of you then, probably cause they're waiting for it to change. But it doesn't not for the next few weeks. 

But you feel fine with it cause now the sideline emotions aren't showing, black is too strong.

Minhyuk has been trying to cheer you up for those weeks, even taking you out, but maybe just the rot of the hair turn yellow, but a the end of the day came the black consumed it. You felt bad cause it made him upset, he couldn't cheer you up. He was becoming more down because of it to the point the usual conversations died down and went to silent. You felt it was your fault for being the way you were and upsetting him.

But then something changed one day.

Going to school, people didn't pay attention to you. They were all whispering about something and when you were in school, they were outside of your classroom and looking through the door. You blinked as you went over and sighed as you pushed through them and stumbled in and one of the girls pushed you for pushing them as you fell.

"Gee thanks for the extra push." You say as you stand up and brush down your uniform. 

"You okay?" It's Minhyuk and you nod your head.

"Yeah, they just pushed me." You say looking back to the girls, but they were gone and you blinked. 

"Well so much for catching the culprit." He says and you chuckle as you nod and look to him, but then your eyes widened.

"Y-Yah... What did you do to your hair?!" You ask and he blinks before he smiles. His hair was pink now.

"I took some advice and dyed my hair. But not just cause of what she said... But because of you. If my hair changed colour... It would be pink every time we were together." He says and you blush before looking away from him and for the first time in a while, your hair changed and was now blue.

"W-What are you even... Are you okay??" You say and he puts his hands on your cheeks and makes you face him.

"Mh, I'm more than okay now that I got you all shy." He says and your brows furrowed as your hair turned red.

"Yah, you can't just say something like that to get me to change colours!" You say and he shakes his head.

"I'm not just saying it to see your colours, I'm saying it cause I mean it... Jinwoo may not like you, but I do, and you know I wouldn't lie to you about that... So no more black hair... I miss the happy you." He says and you look to him and couldn't help but smile a bit. "So stop being so sulky over some douche, look at me... I'm here too." He says and you blush. He has always been there. No matter how many people have turned you away you could always count on him to make you smile. So without a second thought, your hair goes pink and he smiles.

"Look at you, pink is my favourite..." He says and you smile as you wrap your arms around him and the two of you hugged for a while, well, at least until the bell rang and you took your usual seats in the back of the class. You didn't feel down anymore, maybe a bit, but in the end, there is no reason to be when you have at least one person there for you through it all.
