Chapter 3 – Progression

All was quiet in the dorms; it had been a week since the girls had arrived. With their different lessons and subjects the girls had been busy and didn't see their famous neighbours much.

Kita was walking slowly home after her creative writing class had ended, she had her headphones in and was listening to Super Junior's 'BONANMANA' she couldn't help herself and was casually swaying and then dancing along to the music. A car pulled up along-side of her and stopped, the window rolled down and there was Siwon's face looking out to her.

'Kita…' He said trying to catch her attention. He giggled at her dance moves and got out the car to talk to her. 'Kita!' He said grabbing her headphones and pulling them out of her ear. 'What are you listening to?' Siwon's English could be considered the best of the groups, but he didn't like to be big headed about it to the other members.

'Nothing really I just got the top 100 in South Korea…' Kita said pulling her headphones back from him.

He took one and put it to his ear. 'Oh BONAMANA, our recent song…'

'Yes it was number 1 on the charts.' Kita said walking away slowly.

'Are you heading home?' Siwon smiled gently. 'Do you want a lift?'

Kita was tired and always had been lazy when it came to walking so she decided to take up his offer and nodded to him half smiling. As the car approached their dorm, Kita searched her bag for her key. 'Oh crap…' She stopped and realised she swore. But Siwon looked at her curious of what 'crap' meant. 'Oh I forgot my key… that's all…'

'Are none of the other girls at home?' Siwon said concerned for Kita.

'No, Lia is at her internship, Abbi is at her language class, Jade will be on a school library computer editing photos and Danielle is in the Art department and is pulling an all-night-er for her assignment.' Kita felt stupid in front of Siwon and wanted to be less forgetful but she'd always forget her key. 'Abbi should be home first I'll text her and see how long she'll be…' Kita pulled out her phone but Siwon pushed it into her lap again.

'Don't worry; I don't have anything to do, come sit in our group dorm until Abbi is home.' He smiled at her sweetly and like always Kita couldn't refuse. They pulled up at the dorm and Siwon signalled his driver to leave, he quickly opened the door and walked towards the elevator not thinking that Kita was following as he pressed the button for the elevator he looked at her and was shocked. 'Oh sorry I forgot you were here…' He smiled and the elevator dinged to go up. He edged her in and then followed after her. Arriving on their floor he opened his dorm door and held it so Kita could go in.

'Wow…' Kita was faced with a modern dorm that was twice the size of their own; there were pictures of each of the members, she smiled after seeing Siwon's was a ripped shirt profile picture from behind. Though Siwon looked nervous at her seeing it he still smiled and sat down on the sofa.

'Do you want anything to drink?' He said politely. 'The T.V is broken, but we can listen to music?'

'I'm not really thirsty, I just finished lunch at school… but music sounds good.' Kita said looking around still astonished at what she saw.

Siwon pulled his iPod from his bag and pulled it into the stereo. 'What sort of music do you listen too?'

'Anything really…' She smiled. 'I'm not too fusy…'

Siwon put on some pop/rock music he was listening to before he picked her up. Kita smiled as she liked the song. She swayed her head and hummed along which made Siwon smile. 'You like this song?'

'Yes, it's one of the first songs I heard when I got here.' She said still moving with the beat.

'Yeah, it was very popular when it was released… I'm the only member who listens to it now.' He smiled taking off his jacket.

Kita felt a little nervous as Siwon's white shirt was kind of see through, but Kita knew how to stay calm and concentrated on the music more than Siwon.

'Do you like Super Junior music?' He said shyly.

'Yes, it's good and very catchy'

'I'm glad. Are you a fan then?' He said avoiding eye contact.

'Yes, I would say so.'

Siwon thought Kita was very calm and liked how she would react bashfully without knowing it.

After an hour the couple were laughing and joking; telling stories about the other members and girls. Kita felt happy she got to know more about Siwon and Siwon felt the same. The front door opened and Eunhyuk walked in holding Abbi over his shoulder.

'Let me down, Eunhyuk.' Abbi was kicking and screaming at him.

Kita and Siwon laughed at the two.

Eunhyuk spoke to Siwon in Korean and Siwon translated so Kita knew what was going on. 'She was being harassed outside for living here… and… Eunhyuk grabbed her before the fans could do anything… but Abbi doesn't understand.'

Eunhyuk finally put Abbi down but she became silent after hearing, 'You were helping me…' She looked to Kita. 'I thought he was trying to create a scandal or something…'

'Abbi you're a foreign language student, brush up on your Korean already!' Kita hit her over the head then laughed with Siwon.

'Anyways, what were you two doing?' Abbi finally realised that Kita and Siwon were there alone.

'I forgot my key.'

'Of course, I don't even know why I asked.' She walked out the door and bowed to Eunhyuk who bowed back. 'Kita come on I've got my key.'

Kita looked at Eunhyuk who looked a bit upset that he was misunderstood, and said to Siwon. 'Tell him she's like this when she's embarrassed and not to be so worried.' They nodded to each other and she followed Abbi into their dorm.
