"Maybe he has family problems."

Amber said, and you sighed exasperatedly.

"Maybe he's part of some emo frat!"

You sighed more heavily. "I don't know Amber. Maybe you should go ask him."

But of course, she was busy being all Sherlock Holmes on Oh Sehun so she didn't notice you ever breathed.

"OH OH! Or maybe he's actually a sparkly vampire and has been going to high school for 100 years! So that's why he's always so gloomy!"

Amber looked so amazed as if she totally believed her hypothesis. You fought the urge to face-palm.

"Sit down!!" You hissed as you tugged on her shirt. People were starting to look at her because she was basically throwing her body over the table as she tried to get a closer look on Oh Sehun.

"If you're not gonna eat your dumplings I'll be glad to take them." You were about to grab her neglected dumplings but then she had the three big pieces in her mouth in a split second.

"You cahnnat eat mao gumpflingsh" She struggled to say as she tried to munch down the food. Like holy skittles this girl could also be so weird sometimes. Suddenly, the school bell rang faintly from the corridors, and students started groaning and complaining again. Lunch break is over, and people have to go back studying again.

"Promise me you'd come with me." Amber held your shoulders to force you to look her in the eye. She was talking about her daily activity in which she follows Oh Sehun on the way home, as she was desperate to find ot if he was actually some mythical creature disguised as a handsome high school student.

"Amber, I would never participate in your creepy stalking activity."

"Puh-leaaaase? It won't even last an hour! And he wouldn't see us!"

"Not even an hour? Hell it's already creepy to stare at someone for 2 minutes and you plan on stalking him for an hour?!!"

"Stalking is different from staring!"

"Yeah it's like 100x worse!"

"Ok, if you come with me, this will be my last time obsessing over his weirdness and I won't stalk him again."

You actually found the deal quite appealing.

"Is that a promise?"

She lifted her pinky and nodded. "Promise."

You immediately hooked your pinky with hers, and you separated ways to go to your own classes. But you couldn't shake off this weird feeling that freaky things could happen five hours from now. But it's Amber. Of course things would be freaky.

*~5 Hours Later~*

"HOLY SHIT AMBER YOU BROUGHT CAMERAS?!!!" You whisper-screamed as you stared at the DSLR case wide-eyed. And she even brought a tripod.

"Shhhhh shut up and just hold the case!"

"WTF DO YOU BRING THIS EVERDAY?!!!"

"No! I usually just use my Iphone but since this will be my last stalking then I shall take as many proofs with me as I can. With HD cameras and shit. Now shut up and stop fidgeting, he might see us."

She carefully weaved the camera through the thick leaves to get a clear shot of Oh Sehun, walking down the sidewalk having no idea that he was being followed.

"This is so wrong. I shouldn't have agreed with this."

"You're just afraid he'll catch us." She said casually while still busy taking pictures. "Well, he won't. But even if he did, what will he do? I'm sure he won't hurt us."

"He's the weirdest and most unpredictable person in school. We can never be so sure about what he'd do."

"Come on! He's so far already!"

And she grabbed your wrist to force you to ninja walk across the street again. Your shoe made noises every now and then, plus your yelps and occasional complains, so it's either Sehun doesn't care someone's following him, or he just has really really bad hearing.

"Amber, I don't think he's heading towards a secluded field where his spaceship is hiding." You felt like you've been doing this for hours, as you already felt both physically and mentally exhausted.

"Of course he won't. He's going somewhere more... surprising." She smirked, which weirded you out even more. Plus the fact that you were already in your neighborhood. Is Oh Sehun actually your neighbor?

"We're almost near my house. Maybe I should go--"

"No, not yet." She said a little too quickly. And that made you wonder why exactly she had to bring you here with her. Well it couldn't be just because she wanted someone to carry her LSDR case for her. Finally deciding that you've had enough of this insanity, you sighed exasperatedly and shoved the small bag into her chest.

"Sorry Amber, but I'm going home."

"NO WAIT--"

But you were both cut off when you saw Sehun standing right in front of your house.

He was just there.

Staring up at the gate like it was so interesting.

"What the hell..." you mumbled, certainly shocked, so you weren't able to struggle when Amber pulled you back behind the bush.

"He's been doing that for weeks. Staring at your gate every Wednesday. This is the main reason why I stalked him everyday. He seems to be stalking you."

"What?" You hissed. "You're stalking him because he's stalking me?!!"

"Yeah, it's like stalkerception." She shrugged.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU INFORM ME?!! THAT IS THE CREEPIEST THING IN THE WORLD!!!" You hissed and that probably put nearby snakes to shame.

"It's not creepy! For pasta's sake you have an overly handsome weird guy interested in you! And he almost left a love letter on your gate so it's cute not creepy!"

"I'll go talk to him."

"YAH--wait!!!"

You were already power walking so it was too late for Amber to pull you back into your hiding place. And since there were not much people around, Sehun immediately saw you. You couldn't tell if he was shocked, though. He didn't seem to have any expressions other than a poker face.

"Excuse me? Do you need anything?" You tried to smile, but you couldn't control your eyes from narrowing.

"I was just uhh... wondering what paint tint you used on your gate. It looks interesting."

Oh yea, try telling that to a turtle.

"Its burgundy #5. Anything else?"

"How many coats?"

"Were you really staring at our gate for weeks just because of that?" You crossed your arms and gave him a look that demanded an explanation. Instead, his eyes narrowed just like yours.

"How did you know that? Have you been stalking me?"

You scoffed. "Like hell I would! It was my friend stalking--" you turned around, but realized that the bushes seemed to be empty. "Amber? Yah, Amber?"

But indeed, she was already gone. You rubbed your temples. "Oh great. She ran away."

"Oh please," Sehun rolled his eyes. "Just admit that you were stalking me."

"I told you, it was--YAH, don't flip the situation here! You are the one that needs to explain! Why were you standing in front of my house? How did you even know I live here?"

"This was your house?" He faked a shocked face. It was the fakest face you have ever seen.

"I'm not stupid, Oh Sehun. What exactly do you need from me?"

He gasped dramatically. "How do you know my name?"

By then you felt like ripping his hair from his head. "You're a very famous guy in school. The weirdest kid ever. Rumored to be possibly a sparkly vampire or an alien."

You rolled your eyes. He slightly laughed.

"They never get it right."

You froze. What? What did he mean? What was he talking about?

"Uhh... what is that supposed to mean..." You slowly backed away. He stepped forward, starting to look at you with piercing eyes and a smirk.

Holy crap. Are all the rumors actually true? Is he gonna bite me? Is he gonna kill me? Or is he gonna steal my soul away?

"Are vampires and aliens the only creatures you could think about?" He spoke lowly as he got closer. Seriously, his gaze looked like he wanted to eat you alive. You gulped.

"Please... please don't hurt me..."

"It's too late now." He grinned evilly, and suddenly grabbed your arms. You let out a small squeak as he dove his head to your neck. This is it. The end of your human days.

But you felt Sehun's warm lips briefly land on your neck. Then he pulled away, laughing.

"Did you really think I was a vampire? HAHAHAHAHA"

You felt a furious blush creep up your cheeks. WTF! He's such a huge jerk!

"Ugh I hate you!" You hit him on the chest, but he didn't seem to feel it as he was still busy laughing his ass off. "Asshole."

You grumbled and was about to enter your gate, but he suddenly grabbed yout wrist.

"No wait," he wiped away a tear as his laughter faded. "I'm sorry. I've always wanted to do that, and it was hilarious."

"Yeah, right, HAHAHA it was so funny." You rolled your eyes. "Now would you please leave me alone."

"_______, wait." He looked at you straight in the eyes, and for some reason, it made you stop. There was something about his gaze that made you feel... fluttery? Nervous? WTF exactly is this feeling?

"Okay, I admit, I've been stalking you for quite a while now." He slightly rolled his eyes, which now you realized actually looked amusing. "I was the one sending you strawberry milk in cafeteria every now and then. I followed you home a few times but I never planned to talk to you. I mean, I'm just a popular weirdo... people would start rumors when they see me talking to you."

You felt kinda guilty for that. He wasn't fond of talking to anyone, so it was usually a big deal when he is seen talking to someone. And you were one of the people that starts gossiping when you see this happen.

"Well, they don't only say bad things..."

Like when girls say you're handsome.

"Does that mean you agree with me stalking you?" His face lightened up.

"Whoa whoa, wait." You took a few steps back, afraid that he might attempt to bite you again. "Let us stop the stalking thing, shall we?"

He lookes unsure for a moment, but then nodded.

"Well, we can start being friends." You put out a hand for a handshake.

"Are you sure?" He looked unsure again.

"Yeahh... I think having a friend couldn't be bad."

"I'm weird... and annoying..."

"Well it's better than just stalking. Are you gonna shake the hand or not?"

He shook your hand, smiling brightly like it was Christmas. Then he pulled you into a hug and rested his chin on your neck. The extreme closeness made you feek that WTF feeling again. Gosh this boy really is so weird.

"Just a warning though. When we become close enough, it would be hard not to fall for me."

"Oh yeah? We'll see." You chuckled. He pulled away, smirking, and was using those predator eyes again.

"Is that a challenge I hear?"

"Maybe? Maybe not." You smirked back. That made him smile evilly, and you almost panicked as you realized he was leaning closer. You could already feel his breath against your face, and it made your brain turn all fuzzy.

But he stopped when your lips were just a centimeter apart.

"It's a game then. Who falls first, loses."
