"Dude, that's wild."
The group of boys stood around the lockers, taking up half of the hallway. They knew they should move, but didn't make the effort to. Maybe that's why people were giving them rude glares as they walked by.
"I know, I wanted to ask him what he thought he was doing, but when I turned around, he was gone."
All the males in the circle listened intensely as their friend relayed the events that had happened to him the night before.
"Wait, so he just followed you home? Like to find out where you live?" They were all concerned, seeing as there was this person just following some of them around. Like, who does that?
"Yeah, like I was walking to my dorm and he just followed me the whole time, he didn't even try to be discreet either," the boy paused, thinking back to the night before. "Like he wanted me to know he was there." The male talking shifted his weight, he had never had anything like that happen to him, and he had no idea what to do.
"Well if it happens again, call one of us. We don't need you getting hurt, or arrested for assault." All the others agreed with the statement, a few laughed because they knew what their friend was capable of.
"I will, and that goes for the rest of you as well, the fact that this guy has been following us around makes me creeped out. Do you think anyone else has seen him?" the boys all looked at each other, wondering the same thing. The school they attended was big, no doubt about that, it's common to find people who aren't enrolled walking around campus.
It still didn't sit well with a lot of people, but there isn't much they could do other than just being aware of their surroundings and the people in them.
"I don't know, and don't wanna hang around long enough to find out. But if you all don't mind, Im going to head out. I got a dinner tonight."
All the boys whistled and made other questionable noises, the boy gave them an unimpressed look.
"Aw don't be shy Jae, who's the unlucky girl?"
All the boys snickered as Jaehyun pushed his younger friend into the lockers behind him.
"Shut it Minhyung, I don't see you getting any, and besides, it's just a girl my parents keep trying to set me up with."
The boy rolled his eyes at the thought. It's not that he didn't love his parents, he just didn't need this bull shit. He was twenty two for Gods sake! He didn't need his mommy setting up play dates for him.
Minhyung placed a hand on his chest, faking his offense, "I'll have you know sir, I'm already in a very serious relationship." The boy raised his chin, attempting to make himself look bigger, only to fail miserably.
"Yeah a serious relationship with his right hand."
All the boys brokeout in fits of laughter, some on the brink of tears. Minhyung crossed his arms and pouted, they weren't wrong, but he didn't need Johnny calling him out like that. He'd had a few girlfriends, but football was his main priority at the moment, along with school of course.
"Aw I'm sorry Markie, don't be sad," Johnny pouted, he did feel bad for calling out the latter in front of everyone, he knew how Mark could get when he was around the older boys. He wasn't much younger than most of them, but there was still an age gap, not that it mattered to the others. The only one it bothered was Mark. He wanted to be like them, to be cool and make his name known to the school.
While Johnny was attempting to hug Mark to 'make it up to him', the others continued with their original conversation. The atmosphere was still serious. Most of the boys knew the severity of the situation their friend was in. A guy following you around, knowing where you live and go to school no something to take lightly.

After a few more moments, and Mark giving up and allowing Johnny to back hug him, the friends began to quiet down.
"Hey what time is it?"
Jaehyun looked down at his watch and was about to give an answer, only to be beaten by Johnny with his phone in hand.
"It's 3:58, why?"
Jaehyun shot Johnny an annoyed expression. The older just stuck his tongue out. Yep, he was definitely the oldest.
With an eye roll, Jaehyun turned back towards his teammate, "why Yuta?" He asked. The other male fixed his bag and began to back away from the group.
"I gotta go, but I'll see you guys tomorrow after practice so we can get dinner, later," but before he could leave completely, his friends needed their questions answered.
"Dude, where do you go everyday? Like you've been doing this for weeks." All his friends agreed. They were all curious as to where the basketball player was going in the afternoons.
Yuta shook his head, he didn't tell them because he knew they would take it the wrong way. They always did.
"I told you, I'm going to the gym, I have to keep up with you somehow," he said nodding his head towards Jaehyun. He wasn't lying. He really was going to the gym to train, but not for what his friends thought.
He had been going to the same gym everyday at the same time and practicing. It wasn't anything more.
With that said, Yuta refixed the bag on his shoulder, and gave his friends high fives before heading towards the last gymnasium on the left.
He made his way towards the south part of the school. The boy was very familiar with all of the gyms that the school had, he'd been in just about all of them. Making his way down the hall, Yuta found himself checking behind him quite often. He still felt uneasy about the whole situation. The boy wouldn't know what to do if something like that happened to him.
He reached the door to the gym and opened it slowly, not wanting to startle anyone who might've been in there, but to his surprise, no one else was there.
'That's weird, she's always here before me.'
Sooyoung was always punctual, she hated being late. It was rude. Yuta knew this about her, it reminded him of the time he got held up on the court with one of the freshman on the team, he arrived ten minutes late to their sparring session and Sooyoung went on a tangent about how being late was one of her biggest pet peeves. Let's just say, Yuta was always on time or early from then on.
Not thinking to much into it, Yuta decided to wait a few minutes to see if she'd turn up. A few minutes turned into half an hour, and Yuta knew he couldn't wait all night.
With a huff, he got to his feet and slung his bag over his shoulder. He was disappointed, but it wasn't the end of the world.
She must've been sick or something, she was only human. He could always catch up on homework or even some sleep.
'A nap sounds amazing'
Yeah, he definitely wasn't complaining.
Yuta began his journey home, but as he went to exit the the gym, he was met by another person swinging to door open. The figure ran straight into him, securely wrapping their arms around him.
Yuta let out a grunt as the individual caused him to stumble back into the gym. He quickly regained his balance, as the other person was much smaller than himself. He looked down to see a very distressed Sooyoung. He tried to pull away, but her grip only tightened in his arms.
He was beyond confused, not knowing what to do in the situation. He'd never seen the girl this scared. He didn't know the girl was scared of anything, if she was he'd never heard of it. He only knew so much about her, but he did know one thing. Whatever caused her to freak out like this must've really been something.
