Chaptah TWOI (three in French... but it's actually spelled trois)
Mi-Hi, Mi Sun, Woo Bin, and Yi Jung entered the five star hotel. As always when a member of F4 enters a room full of Shin Hwa students, conversation ceased and staring ensued. This made Mi Sun uncomfortable because she didn't know any of these people. Woo Bin and Yi Jung were cocky as ever just standing next to each other smirking. Mi-Hi was in between glaring at her ex-peers and sneering at them. Even with such an uncomfortable and grotesque expression on her face, the dress made her seem less intimidating than usual. She seemed elegant and feminine. Mi Sun may have been an outsider and a commoner, but she had a beautiful figure and face which all Shin Hwa girls needed surgery to obtain. They were unapproachable.
Mi-Hi went straight to the appetizers table hoping to see some eclairs. Woo Bin went after her rolling his eyes apologetically at Yi Jung. His best friend smirked and shook his head. He was used to this behavior from Mi-Hi. Whenever he went anywhere with the two, it seemed that Mi-Hi was a curious puppy and Woo Bin was the owner. He looked to his right hand and saw Mi Sun standing there awkwardly. He stood in front of her, bowed, and asked for her hand. She looked at it tentatively but decided to take it. She came with him; it would be rude of her not to agree to dance with him.
"So, Mi Sun, I'm very hurt that you didn't want to ride in my car. Do you really hate orange that much?" He looked at her while dancing, trying to install sympathetic feelings.
"Uh, yeah. I'm sure you were heartbroken. And, no, I don't hate orange that much. I just had some... Things to discuss with Woo Bin." He smiled sweetly at her.
"Is that so?" She ignores his question feigning it for rhetorical.
"I have a question for you, So Yi Jung." She didn't feel comfortable calling him by his first name. He raised an eyebrow.
"Did you go through your entire address book that you had no other choice but to go with me to this? I think you can do way better." He became serious.
"I don't think I can do better than the best." There was silence.
Meanwhile, Woo Bin was standing behind Mi-Hi without her knowledge trying to figure out if she took some acid behind his back before going into the party.
"Do you Ryo Mi-Hi take table of chocolate eclairs to love and to chew in twue wove until digestion do you part? I do. And, do you table of chocolate eclairs take Ryo Mi-Hi to love and to salivate in twue wove until digestion do you part? I do." She then proceeded to take a bite out of one of the eclairs. Woo Bin thought it was now or never.
"Yah, Dong Seang." She turned around with an eclair halfway in her mouth only to trip on the table mantle and fall forward. She expected a face plant when she closed her eyes, but instead she only felt warmth and the smell of some incredibly expensive incredibly sexy smelling now, she had swallowed the eclairs. Mi-Hi opened her eyes and saw a cheek with stubble on it. She rubbed her finger back and forth on the cheek.
"Oooh, prickly." she said. Suddenly, the cheek stretched and the saw the ending of a smiling mouth. She stood up and found herself staring at her Oppah. She blinked dazed. He was smirking at her.
"Did you enjoy that?" he asked her.
"Enjoy what? I don't know what you're talking about." She crossed her arms faking innocence.
"Fine then. I'll play your game. Dance with me."
"Ha. No."
"Yes."
'No"
"Yes."
"No, not even if you go true warrior on me."
"I wasn't planning on going true warrior on you." He then stepped closer to her and extended his hands to her. She became a little scared. This was her Oppah; he was capable of anything to get what he wanted. He wiggled his fingers at her. Tickling. Mi-Hi's eyes widened. She went into defense mode by parting her legs and extending her arms forward.
"Ara. Ara. Ara. I'll dance with you." He smiled satisfied. Woo Bin took his best friend in his arms and started to twirl her. They started to dance comfortably.
"You know.. It seems like a perfect fit doesn't it?" Mi-Hi thought he meant the way their bodies fit into each other. She was about to say the same thing she thought when he continued.
"This song. Ironic." She tuned him out to listen to the words.
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
"I don't get it. How is it ironic?" she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. He smiled.
"Silly Mi-Hi. You were always too logical to think outside the box. The beauty and the beast?" He tried again. She blinked at him confused. He sighed.
"The beast is me and you're the beauty coming to turn me into a good person." He explained.
"But, the song is about two people falling in love without even realizing it. We aren't like that Oppan. We are best friends, not lovers." His smile faltered.
"Yeah... I guess you're right."
