"HIIIIIIIII...."

Minnie was usually used to her sister having too much hype even in the mornings, but today she just reached an unbelievable high.

"I guess you had fun in your sleepover with Soojin." Minnie points out while spreading peanut butter on her bread.

Shuhua was nodding her head so hard, she looked like one of those bobbleheads you see on a car's dashboard.

"IT'S THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!" Then Shuhua pouts thoughtfully "Actually it's the best night. But it's soooo good that it beats out the best day of my life!"

"What's the best day of your life?"

"When Soojin agreed to be my girlfriend."

"You mean when you tricked Soojin to be your girlfriend?"

"YAH!' Shuhua frowns at her unnie. "I think she's just saying she couldn't stand me, but deep inside, she's secretly in love with me."

"Oh she is?" Minnie answers in a deadpan tone, taking a bite of her breakfast.

"Yes... you should have seen her last night. She kept me up all night."

"What?"

Those few words knock the hell out of Minnie. But maybe she's just misunderstanding things, right?

"What do you mean?"

Shuhua plops on the kitchen stool and starts slabbing an ungodly amount of Peanut butter on her piece of toast.

"Me and Soojin were so busy last night, I ran out of energy."

This time Minnie finally gave her full attention to her kid sister.

"I never saw that side in Soojin, you know, she's always so calm and cool... but she's... kekekekeke..." Shuhua giggles.. "She's quite wild and energetic..."

"" This time Minnie was off her feet.

What do two hormonal teenagers do that can make someone wild and energetic? Minnie doesn't even want to know...

"Yes... it's like every time it's my turn, she just screams out my name. It's distracting but I kept on going even when my fingers are hurting."

Minnie covers her face feeling like a complete failure. Why didn't she give her sister the "speech" about the birds and the bees? And now her sister just... just... just...

"But I guess it's only fair, I was screaming my lungs out when it was her turn, especially since she wants to be on top all the time..."

"On top?" It was too much information for Minnie...

"Yes... and she did... my gosh... she was so good with her hands..."

"Hands?"

Minnie has now covered her ears, shaking her head as she was unwilling to listen anymore.

"Yes... she's so fast but still so good... that I can't help but scream every time she's done." Shuhua sighs dreamily as she remembers last night with her sexy bear "I cant believe that was her first time... but in a way, I'm so proud that her first time is with me..."

Shuhua then bounced up the stool after wolfing down her toast...

"Oh well, I have to get ready. Soojin promised me we'll do it again this lunch and probably after school too!"

""

Minnie tries to shake some sense into her sister.

""

"Mmmmm... yes I am... I never realized it was this fun... now I know why people just can't stop once..."

Shuhua left her sister glued there, her jaw dropped all the way to the ground.

"So, why do people have sex?"

"UH MEEEE!!! I know!!! I know!!!"

Moonbyul is rarely participative in class, as a matter of fact, Shel is rarely awake in class. But the Old Moonbyul seems to be gone along with 2012. Cause here she is, the better Moonbyul of 2013 raising her hand so eagerly at the professor's question.

"Yes?"

"It's because they're hornnneeeee...."

The rest of the class starts snickering. Soojin and Soyeon shifted uncomfortably as far away as possible from the tall girl to be saved from this embarrassment.

"Ehhhhh...." Their professor made a poor impression of a buzzing sound.

"Wrong... this is the only time that religion and science comes hand in hand... PEOPLE... no matter what the media tries to put in your heads. The reason why people are supposed to have sex is so they can procreate... Our lesson for today is blahblahblah..."

The excitement in the room has now fizzled out as their professor starts talking about the technical matters of procreating.

"Pffft..." Moonbyul snorts in disbelief. "What century is he living in? Does he think a bunch of 18 year olds think... oh let's hump each other so we can have babies.... Geez..."

"Byul has a point," Soyeon agreed. "Do you think that's what they were thinking when they were doing each other in fifty shades of grey? I mean c'mon..."

"No pain... no gain."

Soyeon and Moonbyul high fived. Soojin presses her cheek on her palm, ignoring her friend's queries and focuses on taking notes.

"How bout you Soo, what do you think?"

"Bout what?" Soojin replies blankly.

"Why do you think people do it?"

"People do it for different reasons..."

"How about you?"

Soojin gasps at Moonbyul's implication "I don't do it."

"I mean not you doing it, what would be your reason?"

"If I love the person..." Soojin murmurs softly.

Love... People throw that word around way too much that it ends up being insincere or worse as an excuse. But Soyeon and Moonbyul know that when Seo Soojin mentions the word, she takes the meaning to heart.

But does Soojin even know what it means? Like really means?

"Does it matter if it's a boy or a girl?"

Soojin narrows her eyes and doesn't like what Moonbyul was trying to imply.

"I don't like what you're trying to say..."

"I'm not saying anything."

"But you're thinking about it! if I want to do that with Shushu"

"Shushu?"

Soojin growls before turning her attention to her teacher who is demonstrating about the male swimmers.

"Dude... why can't you ju-"

Soyeon grips on Moonbyul's shoulder before the girl could say anything. Moonbyul turns back and Soyeon gives her the eye...

The kind of look that says... not yet... it's not time yet, let Soojin realize it herself...

*

Nom.nom.nom...

"Somi?"Moonbyul asks through the noodles in her mouth. "Are you going to eat that?"

Nom..nom...nom...

"Just give it to Moonbyul, Somi-yah... you don't need the extra..."

"Extra what?!" Somi snaps "Finish that sentence... finish it... I dare yah..."

"I'd rather not."

"Why not? C'mon... come at me bro!" Somi starts to taunt Soyeon.

"If you're not giving it to me, I will show you my ridiculous aegyo..."

Soyeon covers her mouth before she could even puke at the sight of Moonbyul's aegyo...

"Fine..." Somi surrenders and pushes her plate to Moonbyul. "You know that's all I'm going to eat for today. As you may know my body is a wonderland. I need to treat it with respect."

"Wonderland? Do you mean amusement park? Where everyone can take a ride in it"

"HEY! You two could be such jerks sometimes... Soojinahhh..." Somi cuddles on Soojin's arm. "Soosoo?"

The three girls turn and look at Soojin. The girl was quieter than usual, but without the creased brows and deep frown, instead it's like she's in deep thought.

"You okay?"

"Ummm yeah..." Soojin then smiles as she takes the orange in her hand. It made her friends look in wonder. Did the orange just make stoic Seo Soojin smile?

"I got to go ahead... here" Soojin gives Moonbyul her extra lunch but takes the fruit with her. "I'll see you guys later..."

*

"Mom? Dad? Yuqi?"

Soojin's jaw dropped as she saw her parents and her sister right there, with a suitcase like they're about to go somewhere.

"Ummm... yeah... yeah..." Soojin's mom tries to look for an explanation, "Me and your dad and sister are ummm staying on this place for the night."

"But you can't come..."

"Why on Earth are you doing this to me?" Soojin's voice is starting to crack in irritation and desperation. She felt like she's the butt of all jokes.

"Well... I'm pretty sure you'll have fun with Shuhua, right?"

Shuhua starts nodding her head, like a bobblehead.

"See?So, have fun you two!!!!"

"Let's go Yuqi..."

Her mom pushes the clueless Yuqi out the door...

"Bye!!!" Shuhua waves happily before turning to Soojin, blinking her eyes cutely at the other girl. "I'm hungry... what's for dinner?"

Soojin just ends up groaning...

"What we have in the fridge..."

"How about I cook us something?"

Soojin raised her brow in surprise. If she lives with Shuhua, she won't even let the girl near the stove.

"You know how to cook?"

"Yes..." Shuhua nods before hopping to the kitchen, and starts digging inside the fridge, taking out an armful of food.

"What are you going to make?"

"Just sit there and relax my princess. I'll make you something awesome."

The kitchen was in an utter mess, but Shuhua looks like she knows what she's doing. Slicing and dicing vegetables and meat, warming up the frying pan and putting in the different ingredients.

"TADA! Omurice!!!"

Soojin's lips lifted in a smile when she saw her omurice with a heart drawn with ketchup...

"Taste it... taste it..." Shuhua says eagerly, her eyes beaming with pride at her."So?"

"Mmmmm... it's pretty good..."

*

"I can't believe I would actually sleep in your room." Shuhua's non stop blabbing was obvious of how excited she was.

"Well... you can sleep in my room... I'll sleep in Yuqi's ."

"Why?" The excitement in Shuhua's voice quickly disappeared.

"Just cause... good night Shuhua..."

Soojin turns the doorknob but finds it locked. She turns it again and again, finally realizing that it was locked.

"Fine... I'll just sleep in my parents room," Soojin walked over to her parents room. "What the?!"

"They did this on purpose! they seriously did this on purpose!"

"So, you'll sleep beside me tonight?" Shuhua starts batting her lashes, hoping to charm the fuming girl.

"No... I'll just sleep on the couch..." Soojin smirks in a fake apology before walking to the living room.

""

Where on Earth has their couch gone? They are probably the only family without a couch in the living room. There is no other one to blame but her parents. Her very own parents? Her family?! How could they do this to her?!

"I guess I have no choice but to sleep with you."

Soojin just sighs in defeat.

Kekekeke...

*

Soojin armed with pillows have created a boundary in the bed between the two. But from the bedroom, she could overhear Shuhua from the bathroom.

"Yes unnie... I brush my teeth and no I promise I won't make a mess here... Good night unnie!"

Soojin finds her smiling at how innocent and just kind hearted Shuhua seems to be.

"Your turn!" Shuhua says excitedly...

*

Soojin walks into her bedroom and shamelessly gasps as she sees Shuhua sitting on her bed. She knew the girl was pretty, but right now, with her long hair cascading down as she's brushing it, wearing the white nightgown she lent her, the girl was almost ethereal...

"HI!"

"Ummm hi..." Soojin says almost shyly, sitting as far at the edge from Shuhua as possible.

"Are we going to sleep now?"

"Ahhh yeah... good night, Shuhua..." Soojin scoots closer to the edge, making sure she's not close to Shuhua.

This was going to be the start of their long night as Shuhua kept on tossing and turning.

"Why aren't you asleep?"

Shuhua nuzzles her head deeper into the bed, "I can't sleep without hugging my kkuma..."

Gawd... what a kid...

"You can borrow my mickey mouse." Soojin hands Shuhua the stuffed toy, before settling in bed. But her eyes widen when she sees the mickey mouse flying out. "Did you just throw it?!"

Shuhua was pouting too "I don't want to hug him. He got big ears..." Shuhua sat up and fluttered her lashes to charm Soojin "Can I hug you instead?"

Soojin growls and looks away as Shuhua flutters those puppy eyes some more...

"Nooo... You see this boundary?! That's what it's for! So you stay in your spot."

Soojin huffs and turns away, but obviously the boundaries were broken, when she felt Shuhua's head on her back.

"What do you think you're doing?!"

"I'm getting cold... so I'm feeling the warmth of your back through my forehead..."

"OWWWWW!!!" Shuhua holds her forehead as Soojin smacks her hard.

"Now you feel it?! You feel the heat?!!!"

"I didn't know you liked it rough..." Shuhua grumbles teasingly...

"Why you?!" Soojin jumps on Shuhua, smacking the other girl with her pillow. Shuhua was scrambling around like the baby monkey that she is, but suddenly just stopped.

"Shuhua?"

The baby monkey looks like a dead baby monkey.

"Shuhua? There was now a hint of worry in Soojin's voice as she started poking the seemingly unconscious Shuhua. "I know you're just playing me... get up..."

Soojin nudges Shuhua but the girl still won't move...

"Hey... this isn't funny... get up... Shuhua? Shuhua?"

Soojin was starting to get filled with uneasiness...

"Shuhua?" Soojin cups Shuhua's cheek, tapping it softly but she still wouldn't budge. "C'mon Shuhua... Shuhua..."

Gone now was the uneasiness and was replaced by dwindling hopelessness...

"Shuhua..." Soojin whines in a hopeless tone.

Shuhua flutters her eyes slowly.

"S-Soojin?"

And Soojin growls as soon as she realizes she got duped.

"Why you little br- ACCCCKKKK!!!"

Shuhua has now trapped Soojin in an embrace...

"You care for me?"

"I was just about to do the 911 on you... don't take it personally..."

But Shuhua was convinced that it was something more than that, maybe she finally broke through Soojin's wall.

"Ok..." Shuhua loosened her hold on Soojin and she was surprised that Soojin didn't seem to squirm out. "I'm going to sing you a lullaby..."

Soojin growls and plops on the other side of the bed.

"fine... suit yourself."

Soojin was about to fall asleep when suddenly...

AYO GG!

"What the?"

Soojin widened her eyes and gave Shuhua an are u kidding me look.

Yeah yeah sijakhae bolkka?

O-mo! Yae jom bwara yae

Museun iri isseotgillae meoril jallatdae? Eung?

"Are you seriously going to sing to me "I got a boy" to sleep?"

"Oh... well...ok, another song? A more mellow one?"

"Just go to sleep, Shuhua..." Soojin grumbles so hard, pounding her pillows in frustration. This girl is going to be the death of her.

"Can I play my game?"

"What?"

"You know how some people read books to help them sleep? I play fruit ninja to help me go to sleep..."

Soojin starts shaking her pillow and wondering if she could suffocate herself with it...

"Fine!"

The very next minute Soojin could hear the sound of the blade slashing through some fruits while Shuhua was singing along to B.A.P Warrior.

"What the hell? Do you have to sing along too?"

"Well... I need some badass music while I'm slashing my fruits." Shuhua reasons out.

"You're a fruit ninja for God's sakes! There is nothing badass about that."

"Hmmm... you just say that because you can't do it."

Soojin sits up from her bed, this girl is obviously taunting her and Soojin would not lose.

"Excuse me?"

"I dare you." Shuhua taunts her some more...

Soojin practically yanks the kkuma cased IPAD from Shuhua's hand. Shuhua scoots closer and sees the determined frown in Soojin's face.

"You lose."

"Wait..." Soojin pulls the IPAD away from Shuhua "There was a bomb in there."

"That's the point of the game to avoid the bombs."

"No... it was my first time... let me do it again."

"Fine..."

"I can do this...yes,I can... Soojin fighting..." Soojin was prepping herself, rolling her shoulders back as if getting ready for a battle.

"What's so funny?"

"You're talking to yourself."

"You won't be laughing when you lose..."

"Me?! Lose?! Oh please..."

The entire night the two battled it out, trying to outdo each other by slashing as much fruit as they could, avoiding bombs until their hands hurt.

"Soojin?"

"Hmmm..." Soojin answers while her mind is concentrated on slashing the fruit.

"Am I your first girlfriend?"

Soojin didn't know if Shuhua asked that on purpose, just so she would lose.

"Well... in a way you are..."

"Did you ever like someone?"

Soojin wonders why Shuhua would even ask her that. Doesn't that hurt when you find out that the one you like, likes somebody else?

"Ummm... actually I did."

"What happened?"

Talking about him felt like a band aid being ripped open. You thought you're healed but the truth was, the scar will always be there.

"Well, ummm... actually there is this guy who was... you know trying to woo me. But I guess it was my fault too because I was being too picky... and well... he gave up and ummm... you know..."

It hurt Shuhua hearing that and she wondered why she even asked. But in a way she was thankful, at least she knew.

"If he really liked you, he wouldn't give up."

"Some people have their limits."

"I would never give up on you."

Soojin just nodded, not wanting to unearth the past hurts anymore.

"Soojin?"

"Hmmm?"

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

Soojin almost dumped the IPAD to the ground after she heard Shuhua's question. It didn't make sense to her, but come to think of it... Shuhua almost never made sense.

"What are you talking about?"

Shuhua quickly bounced off the bed, taking Soojin's hand on hers.

"I know what happened between us was just some random luck, that in a way you were forced into it."

"S-Shuhua?"

"So, if you let me, if you give me a chance. I'll prove to you that you're worth the wait, that you're worth the effort. I'm not like that guy, I'm not like anybody else."

"I know." Soojin smiles tenderly.

Shuhua smiles back, before taking the IPAD back from Soojin.

"How about you, Shuhua? Have you ever liked somebody?"

"No... just you..."

"When did you even start liking me?"

That question made Shuhua pause for a little bit, trying to retrace back.

"Actually I don't remember. It's like I kept seeing you when I would come over your house, and I just gradually started liking you..."

"Without any reason?"

"You are the prettiest girl I've ever seen. I can't stop looking until it gets to the part that even if you're not around, I still keep looking for you... I guess that's when I realize that I like you."

Those words made Soojin smile, and she slid into the spot next to Shuhua. She didn't say it in words, but by her action she meant her thanks.

*

"Shuhua it's your-" Soojin turned around and found the usual hyperactive monkey had fallen asleep. Soojin just ends up smiling just looking at her, Shuhua looks so peaceful in her sleep, so different from her usual energetic self.
