You pulled your cap down and your mask up further, right under your eyes. You couldn't afford anyone recognizing you, or else your plan would be completely ruined. You hoped for a smooth journey to South Korea from the states, where you could start fresh, and hopefully no one would know who you were.

Princess Y/N.

You sighed and leaned your head against the window of the plane. You hated being a princess, it was absolutely awful. Everyone was always at your hand and foot, which you didn't like, and the kingdom treated the servants and everyone else so badly, and you couldn't do anything about it. So, you'd finally had enough and snuck out of the kingdom to board a three a.m. flight, and you already had an apartment set up in Seoul.

After the long flight, you stretched and grabbed your luggage, and went into the airport, grabbing whatever was left from the baggage claim. You hailed a taxi and informed him on which apartment complex you were going to, and he looked back at you.

"You're awfully young to be in such a nice apartment complex, those are like penthouses."

"What can I say?" You smiled. "I've always been independent."

He nodded and turned back around, and you looked out the window as he drove through the city. Soon, you pulled up to the complex, and you gave him some money while you thanked him, shutting the door. You sighed after he drove off and headed inside, getting your key and taking the elevator up to your apartment. It was one of the penthouse apartments on the top floor, so you were excited to relax and admire the view.

You walked in and dropped your stuff by the door, making sure to lock it after you, and admired the apartment. It was absolutely beautiful, with white interior, luxury furniture, a big window for the view, and you were very grateful. It was about ten p.m., and you were extremely jet lagged, so you laid on the couch and passed out right there.

When you woke up the next morning due to your alarm, you yawned and got off the couch, going to take a shower. You had to finish high school, but you were excited to make new friends, and experience a new school. Well, any school, really. You were homeschooled, so you didn't make a lot of friends.

After your shower you changed into one of your favorite outfits and finished getting ready. You grabbed your phone and backpack, along with your mask, putting it on before you walked out the door.

Since you planned ahead and bought a car before you arrived, it was waiting for you in the garage of the complex, and it wasn't like you were spending the King and Queen's money, it was yours that you had saved up for emergencies. You also didn't buy a car that was too nice, since you didn't want to draw attention to yourself.

You got to school and went straight to the office, where a sweet lady smiled at you and handed you your schedule.

"Miss L/N, I hope you have a wonderful first day. You look very lovely, by the way." She said.

"Thank you." You smiled. "I hope you have a great day as well."

She waved you goodbye as you headed out of the office, and you accidentally bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going." You apologized.

"Oh, you're okay - are you new?" The boy with jet black hair asked.

"Yes. I'm Y/N."

"I'm Wooyoung, it's nice to meet you." He smiled. "Do you need help finding your classes?"

"Oh, I can find them. I'm sure you have better things to do."

"It would be my pleasure to show you around."

You gently smiled at him and tucked a piece of hair behind your ear. "Okay."

He started walking, and you walked beside him as he showed you where a lot of things were, including your classes. Once the first bell indicating the need to get to class rang, he looked at you, and then your outfit.

"I've never seen someone dress so nice." He stated.

You almost said something about how your outfit would be underdressing where you came from, but you caught yourself. "Dress to impress, right?"

He chuckled. "I suppose."

"We should get to class, but I'll see you around?" You smiled.

"Definitely."

He walked off and you went into your class, taking a seat. When Wooyoung got to class, he sat next to his friends.

"Have you guys seen the new girl?" He asked.

"There's a new girl?" Seonghwa asked.

"Her name's Y/N. She's super pretty, and she's super sweet." Wooyoung started. "But, I feel like there's something about her."

"I mean, you just met her. You don't really know her." Hongjoong pointed out.

"Yeah, but she walks with her hands clasped in front of her, and she's dressed like she's about to go on the red carpet. She also shook my hand very lightly, elegantly."

Yunho raised an eyebrow. "Woo, I think you're just infatuated with the new girl."

His cheeks got red and he pouted as he crossed his arms, looking to the front of the classroom. "You'll see what I mean at lunch."

Wooyoung and his friends were on look out for you at lunch, and when they spotted you, all their jaws dropped.

"She's pretty!" San squealed.

"Tell me about it." Wooyoung started. "Watch her walk."

They observed you, hands clasped in front of you, chin up, back straight, and the boys agreed with Wooyoung, you were definitely dressed to impress. You looked over at them and noticed how they all looked away, but Wooyoung just waved you over. You smiled and went to their table.

"May I sit?" You asked.

"Of course." Wooyoung replied.

You sat down and put your hands in your lap, looking around at the table. "Hi, I'm Y/N. I hope I'm not bothering."

"Not at all! We're glad to have you sit with us."

They seven boys introduced themselves very politely, and you couldn't help but smile. "It's lovely to meet all of you."

"So, where did you come from?" Yeosang asked.

"The states, from a k-" You choked on your words and coughed. "I came from the states."

"What made you want to come here?" Mingi asked.

"I've always wanted to visit here." You said, which wasn't an entire lie.

The boys nodded and you felt your phone vibrating, and when you looked down, your heart dropped. You ignored the caller, which was your mother, and slipped your phone into your bag. You didn't notice, but the boys looked at each other with odd expressions.

"What are you doing after school, Y/N?"
Wooyoung asked.

"I'll probably unpack. I got here last night, but I was too tired to do anything." You replied.

"We can help you, if you don't mind. We were trying to figure out something to do after school anyways."

You thought about it for a moment, but figured it would be a good experience to make new friendships.

"That sounds great."

The boys followed you to your apartment in their cars, and you all met up in the lobby.

"You live here?" San asked.

You smiled. "I do."

"Wow. How did you afford this?" Jongho mumbled, and Hongjoong slapped his arm.

"I've been saving up money for a very long time." You told him.

You all took the elevator up to your apartment, and the boys looked so giddy as you turned the key and opened the door. You let them inside and you laughed at their expressions.

"So, Wooyoung and I can start with boxes that are for my bedroom, and if you guys want, you can split up all the other boxes." You said.

They nodded, and Wooyoung grabbed some boxes that were assigned to him, and you did the same. You went to your bedroom and started unpacking, while Wooyoung admired you.

"Can I ask you something?"

You looked over at him and smiled. "Of course."

"There's been something I've been thinking about all day, and it's the way you carry yourself. You walk with so much poise, and you're so elegant, I just, I can't wrap my head around it."

As he said that, he pulled out your crown from the box he was working on, and he looked down in confusion. "Is this a crown?"

"Please be careful with it." You mumbled, letting him hand it to you.

"You're a princess."

"What - no!" You paused. "Maybe, but, please don't say anything. I don't want to be found by my kingdom, because I don't like being a princess, and it was really hard to get out of there."

"I won't. I promise-"

"Guys?"

You and Wooyoung walked out of your bedroom and into the living room, where the boys were looking at a framed picture. It was a picture of you with your parents, at one of the royalty gatherings.

"You're a princess?" Seonghwa asked.

"I was, but I don't want to be one anymore. That's why I moved here, to get away from the princess title." You replied. "But, please keep it a secret. Wooyoung already promised he would."

"We promise."

You giggled as all the boys held out their pinky's, and they insisted that you pinky promise with all of them, so you did. You looked over at Wooyoung and he grabbed your hand, bringing it to his lips.

"We might have to go shopping to get you some more, casual clothes. Right now, you look like a princess." He smiled.

You chuckled and squeezed his hand. "Maybe we should."
