"Students, please find a partner and start telling them about yourself. Try to use different tones when you speak."

Ga Eul was sitting in Communications class when the teacher had ordered them to do this. She still haven't talked to much people except the principal, the guy that almost ran her over, the guy in the auditorium, and the guy in her pottery class. Her eyes wandered around the classroom, trying to see if anyone didn't have a partner. Did she have to work alone on this project now? A hand was on her shoulder. She turned around and saw a short haired girl.

"Do you have a partner?" The girl asked.

"Ah….No."

"Then can I be your partner?"

"Yeah."

After an hour of talking to this girl, Ga Eul found out that her name was Jan Di. She was a commoner that got a chance to come to a rich school like Shinhwa by saving a boy from jumping off the building. Her birthday had passed a few days ago and she was the same age as her. She lived in a small house with her brother, mother and father. She worked at a porridge shop and she loved food. Ga Eul could tell that this girl was a stubborn girl, yet she was really polite and had addressed her as unni. Ga Eul had a brother at home, she knew what being called unni was like but she'd never expected it from someone who was the same age as her.

Ga Eul quickly rushed out of class and ran to the auditorium; she was held back in class and was now late for her usual meeting with Ji Hoo sunbae. This had become a routine for them since neither of them ate much at lunch.

"Ah, Ga Eul. It's not like you to be late." Ji Hoo exclaimed as he looks up from the piano to see that she is huffing and puffing.

"Yeah, I'm sorry. I would have been here earlier, but I got held back."

"Shall we start our lesson today?"

Ga Eul nodded. She had been teaching Ji Hoo sunbae how to write his music with more soul, and slowly, she began to watch Ji Hoo's music writing skills grow.

"How about we try something different today?"

"What do you mean sunbae?"

"I'll play and you sing."

"What??? Sing?!!!!" Ga Eul found it difficult for her to swallow. She couldn't sing, well, she could but not in front of sunbae. Somehow his presence made her nervous to do so.

"Come on. Please?"

Ga Eul looked down at the floor, she didn't know what to do, she didn't know what to say, all she heard was her heart beating rapidly inside of her.

"How about we both sing? I'll start first, and you can come in whenever you're ready." Ji Hoo didn't wait for Ga Eul to reply. He just went ahead and started playing some notes, and soon the song broke through.

We'll do it all

Everything

On our own

We don't need

Anything

Or anyone

Ga Eul just couldn't resist. This was her all time favourite song. She was nervous about doing it or not, but seeing Ji Hoo sunbae sing it so well, she had to wonder if he was really singing from his heart.

If I lay here

If I just lay here

Would you lie with me

And just forget the world?

(Song is explained at the bottom, so is the title and the artist)

Ga Eul had left Ji Hoo sunbae there all alone after they were done singing the song. She didn't want him to think that she was a nosey person so she didn't ask him why he chose that song. She had some reading to do and an ending to finish anyway.

When Ga Eul walked into the pottery room, Yi Jeong sunbae was already seated at the spinning wheel and starting his piece. Ga Eul had stood in front of him and observed him for a while.

"All women find this very fascinating."

"Ha. Then those women don't have good taste."

"Hey, young lady, what are you trying to say?"

"What I am trying to say is that those women that fantasize about you have no taste. I mean, just look at your piece. It's got no movement and emotion of any sort."

Yi Jeong looked down at his piece. How could his piece not have movement and emotion? What did this girl know? He was angry of course, but he didn't scold women.

"Okay. Then how could you fix me piece?"

'Oh what a simple question' Ga Eul thought. Is money the only thing that kids at this school had? Ga Eul sat down and started fiddling with Yi Jeong's piece. He had in fact invited her to make his piece "better".

After an hour or so of Yi Jeong's impatient glares, Ga Eul was finally done.

"Oh my god." Yi Jeong was blown away by the piece; it didn't even look like his work anymore. The detail, the delicacy, it was all so surreal. If he hadn't seen her make it, Yi Jeong would have never believed his eyes.

Woo Bin had called Yi Jeong right after Ga Eul had challenged him. He asked him to lend him his yellow Lotus Elise just so that the two cars would be alike, that way the race would be fair. Yi Jeong didn't mind, but he didn't ask what the reason was either because Woo Bin had told him that he needed it for "important matters."

Ga Eul arrived on time like she said she'd be but she was still later than Woo Bin who had been waiting by the parking lot for fifteen minutes. Woo Bin threw Yi Jeong's cars keys at her and Ga Eul caught it in a flash.

Before Ga Eul climbed into the Lotus Elise, Woo Bin called out: "Hey, just because you're a girl, doesn't mean that I'm going to go easy on you.

Ga Eul smirked. 'Oh, this pretty boy is SO going down.' "Then consider me a guy," she shouted back. And with that, the two drivers had gotten into the car and the race around Shinhwa high was on. It wasn't before long that Ga Eul was ahead of Woo Bin, in fact, she was about three blocks ahead of him, but Woo Bin was too far behind to know. Ga Eul was coming to a pedestrian walk when she saw a blind old lady trying to cross the street. Ga Eul could see that she was struggling and having difficulties sensing the traffic. Ga Eul parked her car over and went out to help the poor woman. She approached the old lady and held onto her cold hands as she assisted her to the other side. It was right now that Woo Bin had come to the pedestrian walk. He saw Yi Jeong's yellow car parked aside and he mind began to wonder why the girl suddenly parked the car there. He got his answer as he zoomed past her. Ga Eul didn't notice it though because her back was to Woo Bin. Woo Bin didn't slow down though, BUT he was moved by her kindness. Woo Bin came back to Shinhwa high long before Ga Eul did of course. Ga Eul got out of the car and had admitted defeat.

"Yo, you were just going easy on me." He couldn't hear Ga Eul response because his phone was ringing, there was a text.

Meet me in the lounge in 20.

You guys better not be late.

Jun Pyo

"Hey, what have all you guys been so busy with? I haven't seen you guys in a week." Jun Pyo was the leader of F4, he needed to know what his friends were up to, and even Jan Di was blowing off their dates. "I heard my bodyguards say that all of you just go home after school, like what is up with that? What happened to the parties and the girls?" Okay, the last bit was aimed more towards Woo Bin and Yi Jeong but Ji Hoo understood what he meant.

Woo Bin spoke first, he had nothing to lose in front of his best buds. "Yo, my bro didn't mean to not hang out with you and stuff, but I met this girl at school and she's really strong. Man, that woman can race and she's got a really big heart."

Jun Pyo was amazed that Woo Bin would ever compliment someone like this, it was usually about her awesome hair, her beautiful body and whatever, but this was the farthest that he'd see Woo Bin go. "Woo Bin, you got your eyes on someone already? How old is she anyways?"

"I didn't get a chance to talk to her yet but I'll get back to you on that."

"Hey, if she is a younger chick. What are you going to do?"

"Haha. Maybe it's time that my rules are broken."

Jun Pyo saw the silence in Yi Jeong and well, as for Ji Hoo, he was just being his usual self. They had to expect that he was going to ask. "Yah, Yi Jeong, what about you?"

"Well…..I met a girl too." He said acting cool, but he could no longer hold back the joy in him. "She's got the gift of a goddess when it comes to pottery; her pieces literally speak to you."

Jun Pyo was really amazed now, "First week of school and you playboys have got your eyes set on a target, I'm surprised that neither of you have made a move on her yet."

Woo Bin and Yi Jeong exchanged glances. They too, were surprised at themselves and at each other. 'Why haven't they made a move? What could be stopping them from going there?'

"Ji Hoo, what about you?" Jun Pyo was most concerned for Ji Hoo. Firstly because he was his best friend and secondly, because Ji Hoo was the type of boy to isolate himself but he hadn't been like that since the time he came back from Seo Hyun's. "I know you've done other things besides sleeping."

Ji Hoo looked up from his laptop, why couldn't he just sit here, tap on the keys and be in his own world instead of being dragged into this conversation. "I've been learning to play from my soul."

Typical Ji Hoo answer, statements but with no depth. "What? Don't you already play from there?" Jun Pyo never listened to anything that Ji Hoo played but he said it just to make Ji Hoo think that he was a supportive friend.

"I thought I did but I didn't until someone showed me what it was really like to play from your soul."

Jun Pyo pointed his finger at each member of F4. "By the looks of it, you guys all have a girl occupying your mind. Wow. There must be a LOT of new rich kids this year."

Jan Di couldn't help but interrupt; this was something that she knew the answer to. "Yeah, I heard there are 60 new students, and about 30 of them are our age. I met a girl too!"

"What? Are you …not interested in MY kind anymore?"

Jan Di smacked Jun Pyo on the arm. 'How stupid could he get?' "You idiot, what are you thinking? I met an unni in my Communications class, but she looks nothing like a rich girl, even her personality is really nice and all. I wonder if she's someone like me."

"Yeah, Jan Di, you don't want someone to be like you, or else Jun Pyo over there is going to have a sudden change of heart."

Jun Pyo didn't like Woo Bin's sense of humour so he picked up the pillow on the couch and threw it at him.

"But that unni is too nice to be like me, apparently her father is the owner of the biggest mall in the world."

One name came to Woo Bin's mind: "Omega-Chu?"

"Yes, that one. She's like an heiress that is nice to the poor. I'm starting to idolize her."

All members of F4 had exchanged glances and looked back at Ji Hoo who immediate started to type something on his laptop. Omega-Chu mall had an heiress? And she went to Shinhwa high?

"I can't find anything. All I get is links going to the Omega-Chu Mall website, her father and her mother. I can't find a single information about her. Her personal information is confidential and her life, kept as secretive as possible."

Okay. Sorry for keeping you guys waiting but this chapter went over my usual words. The song that Ji Hoo and Ga Eul was singing is called Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, I dont own that song. Its one of my best friends favourite songs, I like it too, but not as much as she does. Please humour me if you guys dont like that song. I just wanted to use a song that showed a meaning, which will be revealed in the next chapter.

For those that wanted Woo Bin to win the race, he did. Haha.

Now Ga Eul's met Jan Di, there's only one more guy left. :D
