Seohyun's High School,

No POV

Like every day, Seohyun came out of school and walked to the bus station with her friends. What she didn't expect that afternoon was to see Yoona waiting for her outside.

Yoong was still wearing her uniform and waved charmingly at Seohyun when she saw her coming.

"Hi Seohyunie!" she put on one of these adorable smiles. So adorable that even Seohyun's friends were charmed.

After saying goodbye to her friends, Seohyun focused her attention back to her visitor. "Yoona, what are you doing here?"

"I wanted to see you today" she said before taking Seohyun's hands. "Wanna come to my house today? I have a new movie"

"I don't know, I was supposed to go home"

"Don't worry, I will call your mother" she swung their hands happily from side to side. "Please? We haven't seen each other since…Sunday. I miss you"

Although she was already 16 years old, Seohyun was a very pure and innocent girl. She mostly spends her times between school and piano practice, until a few months ago…when she met Yoona.

"Fine, let me call her first" Seohyun finally agreed.

Seohyun has never been interested in the whole dating thing that all teenagers were crazy about. She was pretty surprised herself at how she felt for Yoona. After they met for the first time at Yoona's house, they started seeing each other during weekends and obviously, got closer.

Seohyun didn't know why Yoona could make her so happy. They were always smiling and laughing when they were around each other. What's more? Yoona was really a sweet talker and always found the right words to make her smile. Her elder sister Sunny even tried to teach her how to do aegyo…just in case.

Seohyun and Yoona took a cab to Yoong's house. They haven't been dating for that long but Seohyun was already very familiar with the house, and with Yoong's parents.

"Seohyunieee! How are you?" Mrs. Kwon greeted her daughter's girlfriend with a big hug. There was no need to say that Yoona's mom totally loves Seohyun. She was a smart, polite and pretty girl.

"Mrs. Kwon, I hope I'm not bothering you again"

"Of course not! I'm happy to see you! Are you staying for dinner? You have to!" It was impossible for Seohyun to reject the offer.

"Why are you so happy?" Yoona asked her mother.

"Yuri brought Jessica and now Seohyun is here…I'm so happy to have my future daughters-in-law at home, that's all"

"Mom please"

"What? I can't think about the future now?"

"Yes yes you can. We're going to grab something in the kitchen before watching a movie in my room."

"Oh let me quickly make small sandwiches. You can bring some to your sister as well"

"I'm not going in her room…"

"Why?"

"She's with Sica"

"And?"

"Mom…you don't want to know" Yoona smiled mischievously at her mother before sitting down.

That's exactly when the eldest children, Yuri entered the kitchen. "Oh hi Seohyun! Mom, Sica is staying for dinner"

"Really? How awesome is that? Your girlfriends are staying for dinner…Oh my…I'm getting emotional"

"Mom please"

"Do you also want some sandwiches Yuri?"

"Huh no we have food already but thank you" she said before living the kitchen.

Outside of the Kim's residence,

Tiffany’s POV

I caught Taeng trying to sneak out of the house, once we came back from school. She told me she wanted to go to Yuri's place…to discuss. She insisted that I stay at home but of course, I tagged along.

"Why can you just stay at home?" Taeyeon was complaining as we walked to Yuri's house.

"It's been a long time since I visited and Sica told me she was there as well. Maybe we can sing karaoke again!!!" I jumped around happily.

Taeyeon grabbed my hand and forced me to walk calmly. "If you stop acting like a crazy bunny"

I wanted to tease Taeyeon some more but she was holding my hand and I didn't want to ruin this moment.

We arrived at Yuri's house and like last time, Taeng simply entered. The only thing this time was…we bumped into Yuri right away. When she saw Taeng, her eyes popped out and she was shocked…really shocked.

"Taengoo…what…what are you doing here?" Yuri stuttered a bit; obviously she didn't want Taeyeon to come.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nnnn….noooothing…huh…come…let's go to my room" Yuri grabbed Taeng's hand and dragged her up the stairs.

I stood there in shock, watching Yuri dragging Taeyeon away until a familiar voice called Taeng. I swear I saw Yuri's body shivering when she heard it.

"Taeyeon unnie!"

I turned around and saw Seohyun coming, Yoona by her side.

"Oh Seohyun, what are you do…" Taeng was going to walk down the stairs but then stopped when she noticed something. Her eyes went really really big and she tried hard to put on a smile before turning to Yuri.

I couldn't hear what they were talking about but Taeng was really agitated. She kept looking back and forth at Seohyun then Yuri and it looked as if they were arguing over some issue.

Yuri's POV

After telling my mother that Sica was staying for dinner, I came out of the kitchen and as I was walking to the stairs, the front door suddenly opened. The last person that I wanted to see was there…Kim Tae Yeon.

It was one of this rare time where my brain worked this fast. I immediately understood the situation and of course, freaked out.

"Taengoo…what…what are you doing here?" I tried to remain calm but it wasn't easy.

"What's wrong with you?" her suspicious look didn't' help me calm down.

"Nnnn….noooothing…huh…come…let's go to my room" I quickly grabbed Taeng and ran on the stairs.

There was something that Taeng could absolutely not see. I hide it from her for a long time already and there is no way I was letting her discover it now…when I'm around.

But my body literally froze when I heard her voice calling for Taeng. How unlucky am I?

"Taeyeon unnie?" she called out. Why…oh why???

Seohyun and Yoona came out of the kitchen and were walking toward Tiffany, in the middle of the lobby.

I naturally released Taeng's hand and prayed silently for someone, anyone to come and save me.

Taeyeon turned around and saw her little cousin. "Oh Seohyun, what are you do…" she took 2 steps down before frizzing.

I closed my eyes and breathed deeply, preparing myself for the storm to come.

"Yuri…" Taeng whispered calmly but I knew she was holding it. "Can you…can you tell me what your sister is doing?"

I took a look at Yoona and she was just standing beside Seohyun…nothing weird. "What? They're all staring at us, nothing else" I acted clueless. Of course I knew why Taeng nearly got a heart attack.

"Then…tell me…what is Yoona holding in her right hand???" Taeng turned back and glimpse at Seohyun again, before turning her attention at me.

I took a quick look a Yoona and tried to smile, just to calm down Taeyeon a little bit. "Listen…"

"Why…oh why in the world is your sister…holding my little Seohyun's hand???" she took a quick glimpse at Seohyun again.

"Listen to me…technically…they're holding hands but BUT…actually…it's normal" I was able to mumble something out, although it didn't really make sense.

"Kwon Yuri…what did you do??"

"Unnie, is everything alright?" Yoona asked Taeng.

Taeyeon stared at me with her freaked out expression before turning to the 3 girls standing in the lobby. "Nothing, there is nothing" she reassured them but her voice was still shaky.

"Why don't you 2 go in the kitchen and eat something?" I tried to send them away.

"We have sandwiches for the movie" Yoona showed the plate she was holding with her right hand...her left hand being busy...holding Seohyun's hand.

"You…you're going out to watch a movie?" Taeng asked.

"No, we're watching a movie in my room" Yoona responded.

"Wh…what? In the dark?" Taeng freaked out even more. I don't remember freaking out that much when I found out…Taengoo is so sensitive.

"Huh…yes?"

"Are you feeling well unnie?" Seohyun asked Taeng. "You're sweating"

"I…I'm fine, don't worry…just…go…go watch your movie..."

Seohyun and Yoona looked at each other confused before walking upstairs to Yoona's room. Taeyeon and I tried to smile normally at them when they passed us.

"Go watch your movie…in the dark…just the two of you…" Taeyeon whispered once they disappeared upstairs.

"What's wrong with you two" Fany asked.

"Kwon Yuri, room" Taeyeon told me before I could reply to Tiffany.

I smiled at Fany before following Taeyeon.

Tiffany’s POV

I had absolutely no clue on what happened when we were in the lobby with Yoona and Seohyun. I followed the two of them to Yuri's room. Sica was sitting on the couch, reading a magazine when we entered.

She was quite surprised to see us there as well.

"So…I'm listening to you…" Taeyeon spoke as soon as the door behind me closed.

Yuri was walking nervously around the room. I took a seat next to Jessica and the two of us observe the scene quietly.

"They're dating" Yuri announced. I still didn't know what they were talking about.

"…"

"What's going on?" Sica whispered to me. I shrugged and simply looked at Taeng who stood there like a statue.

"Are you ok?" Yuri walked to Taeng and patted her on the back.

"Since…since when?" Taeng asked.

"I don't really know…probably soon after they met each other. I didn't want to hide it from you but…you know…"

"Oh…" It was Sica's turn to understand the situation. I was the only one left in the dark.

"What? What? You know something?" I eagerly asked her.

"Seohyun and Yoona. They're talking about them"

"What? What about them?" I asked her again but then came to the conclusion myself. "Oh…I see"

"Here we go again" Sica let out a sigh. I didn't get it but then Taengoo started freaking out even more and I understood what Sica meant.

"Oh…my…she's still a baby…what am I going to do?????" Taengoo was walking in circle now.

"Calm down, it's no big deal" Yuri tried to lighten up the situation, but she wasn't convincing enough.

"No big deal? You mean them walking around holding hands and kissing is no big deal????? Kwon Yuri!!! My little innocent cousin…"

"Wait wait!!! Who said they walk around kissing? We're not there yet…I've only seen them holding hands…don't go too far…" it was Yuri's turn to freak out now.

Honestly, I've lost them since the conversation started. They looked like 2 mothers freaking out on their daughters. It was cute and funny but I was still worried about them. They're way too overprotective. Not good, not good.

"My little Seohyunieee…it can't happen now…she's too young…"

Even though I was a little amused by them, I decided to try and solve the situation. Jessica was rolling her eyes and sighing. It's probably not the first time Yuri freaked out about that.

"Taengoo, she's not a baby anymore and she is only 2 years younger than you" I told her.

"She likes keroro…since when is she interested in dating and such?"

"Well that's only natural…she's growing up. It was bound to happen" I stood up and dragged Taeng on the couch.

"But…"

"Try to see the positive, she's dating Yoona. It could have been someone weird that we don't know, but instead it's Yoong. Be grateful" I patted her head. "And don't you think they're cute together? Don't worry, its innocent love"

"Innocent…right" Yuri talked to herself…too loud though.

I continued to pat Taeng's head while she was still spacing out.

"Anyway, why are you two here?" Yuri asked us once she forgot about the whole dating thing.

"Huh…I don't know…I simply followed Taeng" I nudged her gently. "Didn't you have something to talk to Yuri?"

Taeng stopped spacing out and stood up. "Hmmm yeah…in private…" she said to Yuri. "Huh can you two go somewhere else?"

Jessica, who was still sitting on the couch, threw an evil glare at Taengoo. Her response was clear enough.

"Nono you two can stay here comfortably, we'll go in the other room. Haha" Yuri smiled apologetically at Sica and dragged Taengoo out of the room.

"Wow…Yuri is so afraid of you. How do you do that?" I asked Sica once we were left alone in the room.

"I don't know…it's natural. You're not that bad with Taeyeon. She's like a nice little puppy now. So different from the crazy delinquent girl before"

"Yeah…well I wish I could do something about her relationship with her parents though" I sighed.

"Isn't it getting better?"

"Well, they're living under the same roof now so I guess it's an improvement already. What I want is for them to have a conversation…which is harder than I thought"

"It's Taeyeon after all…she already doesn't speak much"

"Yes…not like YOUR Yuri" I teased her.

"Don't start" she warned me.

"Come on, you have nothing to tell me? Everyone knows you two are dating!! And by everyone, I mean EVERYONE!"

"That's her fault!" she sighed again. "I told her to be quiet about it"

"That's cute. I envy you Sica-ahhhhhh" I grabbed her arm and whined.

"Aish stop that" she pushed me away. "I hate when you are like that"

"No but seriously…since when?"

"Since when what?"

"Since when are you two an official couple??? Something must have happened for the Ice Princess to melt completely" I winked at her.

"Nothing happened"

"Didn't you tell me Yuri asked you on a date last week? You still haven't told me about it!"

"It went well" she simply said. I knew she was dying to tell me more though. She just needed a little push.

"Sica-ahhhhh tell me more Sica-ahhhhhh" I annoyed her with my aegyo and whining.

"Fine fine but please stop with your aegyo…having Yuri doing it is enough…" she complained.

Jessica then started telling me about her date with Yuri.

In another room,

Yuri's POV

"What do you want to talk to me about?" I asked Taeng after dragging her in another room. That crazy girl dared to ask Sica to move from her comfy seat…how crazy.

"I need some help…about Tiffany"

"To do what?" I asked interested.

"Why do you sound so…creepy?"

"HUH?"

"Whatever…I asked her on a date so help me"

"No way!"

"What?"

"Oh my Taengoo!!!" I jumped and hugged Taeyeon, patting her on the head. "You have grown up too! Aigoo, you're going on a date!!! How awesome is that?"

"Please…like it was the first time…"

"Isn't it? You haven't really been in an OFFICIAL date with Sunye…you never asked her out. You two were just going around together"

"Anyway…are you helping me or not?" she said annoyed.

"OF COURSE! You went to the right person. I'm awesome with dates"

"Are you?"

"Hey! I'm dating the Ice Princess! How awesome is that?"

"Yeah pretty scary…"

"So…what can I do for you?"

"I don't know what I'm going to do with her on Saturday…where we should go, what we should eat…everything!"

How cute, little Taengoo is getting nervous and all work out for her upcoming date. "Okay, first, let's choose a location…"

"A location…where we can have fun…"

"What does she like? Where does she want to go?"

"I have no idea…"

"Great" Of course, Taeyeon didn't know anything. She is worse than me when it comes to dating.

"She's noisy so I guess a noisy place?" she said innocently. Her hopeless expression was cute though.

"Maybe behind her noisiness, she is a romantic girl" Like Sica.

"I'm not romantic, how am I supposed to do??? Kwon Yuri!"

"Listen…I think the best is for you to listen to your heart and follow it!" I tried.

"…"

"What?"

"That's beyond cheesy and lame…"

"I just don't think there is a perfect plan for you, especially for YOU. Fany knows you too well now, if you're going to follow a plan, it'll be too obvious. That's why, just act like you feel"

"Where do I start? Your awesomeness is not helping right now" she complained to me.

"Fine...just…the whole point is for both of you to have fun and enjoy your day. Just think of a place that you know will make her happy. The key word is FUN. You don't want to spend some gloomy day with her, so pick a fun place"

"Fun…okay"

"Can you do that?"

"Sure…no problem"

"Good kid" I patted her head. "Hmm…how is it with Sunye?"

"She talks to me…its getting better" I hated how she was still looking sad whenever Sunye is mentioned.

"Do not feel guilty…you don't have to"

"I know…I just…I promised her…"

"She is not under your responsibility. A friend, she's a friend and you should know the limit to this relationship. It should be all about Tiffany now"

"I know…believe me I know. I have enough pressure with Sungmin already…He is really annoying, he won't give up on her"

While Sunye's name brings sadness to Taeyeon, Sungmin's on the other hand brings anger to her.

"I don't like Sungmin…he's kind of creepy on his own, a bit like Gyuri"

"Oh Gyuri…yeah that girl IS creepy. Watch out, she seems to really really like you" Taengoo tried to warn me, like I didn't now already.

"She's not GorJess"

"What?" she looked at me clueless at what I just said, but I ignored her and didn't explain.

"She's such a good kisser…talking about that, we should go back to my room. Sica is probably waiting for me…because we…you know…"

"…No, I don't know BUT I don't want to know so, keep it to yourself. Thank you" she said before leaving the room.

Yuri's room,

Tiffany’s POV

"…" I was speechless after Sica's little story. Her date with Yuri was simply perfect. I didn't know that Yul was such a romantic. How lucky.

"And that's how we officially dated" Sica finished. During the whole time, she was smiling. I could tell she was happy now.

"That is just…WOW"

"I know, hard to believe she did that right? But maybe Taeyeon will do something like that too"

"Actually…I don't want her to. For now, it wouldn't be…comfortable for us. I prefer us to have fun during this date…I just want her to enjoy herself. We can be romantic later on"

"No details, no details" Sica said as she put her hands on her ears.

I hit her with a pillow when the door opened. Yuri and Taeyeon were back from their little discussion.

"Let's go Fany"

"Already?"

"Yeah...I'm sure they have a lot of…thing to do. Come on" she urged me.

I looked at Yuri who was smiling shyly then at Jessica who was as lost as I were. I hugged Sica before leaving with Taeng.

Yuri's POV

Finally I was alone with my Jessica. "What did Taeyeon want?" she asked me as I sat beside her.

"Some tips"

"She should have asked Yoona" she teased me.

"Ya! I'm not that bad" I pouted.

"Really? The whole world know about us now, how should I punish you?"

"You really want to know? Because I have some awesome ideas right now…"

"…"

"What? You know you want it too" I smiled at her.

"But the last time today, I still can't believe you convince me to make out in the car though…"

"I didn't convince you…you didn't stop me, difference!"

"Still it was the last time!" she acted angry.

"Fine fine" I said while pulling her toward me.

There is no need to give details on what we did afterwards. I'll just say…Sica is the best kisser in the world. It's been…only days since we started being an official couple and I enjoyed every second of it. Yoona told me that at the beginning, we'll be all over each other and she was right. Even in public, I can't seem to let go of her.

Soon, our little Taengoo will feel the same. It's going to be funny.

Kim's residence,

Tiffany’s POV

Taengoo was bothered by something but I didn't know what. When we came back home, she wanted to go and hide in her room again, exactly what she has been doing since her parents came back. Auntie was in the kitchen, preparing the dinner so I forced Taeng to go and help her.

"Why should I do that? She can cook by herself" she complained.

"She would love to spend time with you…just try…don't you want to be around your mom?"

"…I…I have nothing to talk with her…"

"She will find something…as long as you make an effort"

"Fany…"

"Please…for me??"

I know it was hard for her. Even though it was her mother, they haven't really shared a mother-daughter relationship so I understand her uneasiness.

"…Fine but…stay with me…it's just…too uncomfortable if I am alone with her"

There were a lot of times when I found Taeng so cute that I wanted to hug her…or even kiss her but every time, I hold back because it wouldn't be appropriate but plain weird and creepy.

But this time, I just couldn't help it. Taeyeon was just too cute and…I just wanted it. Technically, it wasn't the first time that I hugged Taeng, but with her, it seems like, everything is always different. I was surprised myself at how…comfortable we were with each other now.

I held her hand and we walked to the kitchen together. Auntie saw us coming in and her face brightened up, like it always does when she looks at Taeng.

"Auntie, can we help you with dinner?"

"Oh I can do it Fany; you two can go rest until its ready"

Taeyeon quietly walked to her mother and took the knife from her hand. "I'll cut the carrot" she simply said before doing it.

Auntie stood there in shock. "Taeng loves to cut things…let her do it" I smiled.

The three of us cooked dinner together and although Taeyeon didn't participate much in our conversation, she still tried. I was proud of her.

Taeyeon started to get more relaxed until her father came back. As soon as she saw him, it was…as if a freezing breeze came in the kitchen.

"Oh I didn't know my daughter was cooking now" he said after seeing Taeyeon.

"…" Cold…Taeng was cold once again.

"By the way, do you remember Min Sungmin?" he asked her.

Taeng looked up at him but remained silent.

"There is a new project and we might be working with their company, since you know him, I thought you might want to take care of that"

"I'm not interested"

"He's really smart, you two working together…"

"No" she stated coldly. Taeyeon stopped what she was doing and walked away.

"Taeyeon, dinner is ready in a minute" I told her.

"I'm not hungry" she said before leaving the kitchen.

Auntie, worried, watched Taeyeon walked away before looking angrily at her husband. Blaming him for ruining the nice moment she was finally sharing with their daughter.

I quickly followed her outside and caught her before she left the house. "Where are you going?"

Taeyeon looked at me angrily and by her breathing, I knew she was getting really angry. "…"

I took her hand gently and tried to calm her down. "Let's go in your room, okay?"

She quietly nodded before following me. Once we got in Taeng's room, she jumped on her bed and turned on the stereo. It was classical music.

"I didn't know you also listen to classical music" I asked before sitting on the bed, next to her.

"It's relaxing"

"Why do you suddenly need to relax?"

"…"

"Taeyeon…"

"It'll never be enough…everything that I do…never enough"

"What are you talking about?"

"Do you think Sungmin is that smart? Is he that good?"

"Why are you talking about Sungmin? Is it because of what your father said?"

"It's not about Sungmin…it's about me and how he will never acknowledge me"

"Who?"

"My father"

"Taeyeon…"

"He never acknowledge anything that I do…never"

"I know your parents are proud of you"

"Sungmin is the new genius around…perfect son, perfect businessman, perfect boyfriend" she made sure to look at me as she said the word boyfriend.

As cold and strong as she might look, Taeyeon was still a young girl who deep inside, just wants her parents to cheer on her and pamper her. It's hard from a stranger point of view to believe that Taeng can suffer from self-esteem, she who is brilliant and successful at such a young age. I, who has been living with her for months, am still shock to discover that.

"You might not believe me but, I think you are way better than him" I smiled gently at her.

Taeng was staring at me and before I knew it, she pulled me down and hugged me. "Taeyeon"

"Can we stay like this a little longer?" she asked before hugging me tighter.

Although our position wasn't really appropriate, with me lying on top of her, I wasn't going to complain. I can't believe that even before our first date, we grew closer to each other…mentally and physically. There was no more weirdness when she hugged me or when we talk about her parents.

It's hard to believe that we can get even closer at this point, but that's exactly what I'm hoping for...with our first date, I want to take one step closer to Taeng.
