"You intrigue me."

"What the hell did he mean by that??" I lay on my bed, face hidden under my pillow, feeling utterly confused.

"Darn kangaroo, confusing me for the whole day just by saying two stupid words..."

There was something about the way he said it. Then followed by a questionable gaze. What was he thinking at that moment? I couldn't bring my mind into understanding the reason behind his words, hence I honestly didn't want to know...or did I?

I whined once again. What was he doing to me? It was low key terrified.

"I swear the next time I see you—" I was cut off by a knock on the door.

"Who dares interrupt me during my bedtime??" I menaced, sitting up and watching the door creak open. In came the one, the only, the almighty, the godlike— also the last person I wanted to see: aka Felix Lee.

"It's barely past noon." He retorted, as he popped his head inside the room.

"You're interrupting my nap time, then." Said I, glaring daggers at him.

"You're so weird sometimes." He commented as he made his way inside the room, closing the door behind him.

"Since when was napping weird?"

"When you do it."

"Funk you, you hot Australian bastard!" With that I threw a pillow in his direction, which he barely managed to dodge as he was too busy gasping.

"You just complimented me!" I rolled my eyes as I threw myself back in my sleeping position. "What? You want me to stop?"

"Please don't." He replied almost instantly.

Silent soon followed. Neither of us knew how to continue the conversation and frankly all I wanted to do was drown inside the sheets of my bed, and disappear from the face of the earth.

"So..."

It was already awkward, how in the world did he make it worse?

"Daichi, huh, what a guy—"

"Felix."

"Alright, I'll just get some air. Bye!" And with that, he rushed out the door, completely forgetting to close it behind him. I groaned at the sight of the fully opened door.

"The door!" I called out as loud as I possibly could, however with no response whatsoever.

"Hey kangaroo, close the mother-ducking door!" Still nothing. I lay there for a few seconds, debating whether I should get up and go beat up his sorry self or stay and die in my sleep. '5 more minutes...' I thought. However not long after, I felt a pair of eyes watching me. My eyebrows furrowed at the feeling while my hand searched for the first 'weapon' I could find. Whoever this stalker was, I was going to show them a bad time.

My hand initially found its way across the rug to the only obvious item on the bed: a pillow. I sighed, the best I got.

The next few seconds were the longest I had ever felt in my life. Seemed like said stalker preferred to just stay there for an eternity.

'Alright, Chae, on the count of three, you turn around and attack...'

1...

I clutched my hold on the pillow, digging my fingers on both its sides.

2...

'I swear if it's you, kangaroo, it won't end well...'

3!

          

Without thinking twice, I jumped up and threw myself on the silhouette at the door, pressing the pillow against their face violently. The person tried fighting back, but was obviously failing whatever move they were trying to make.

That's when I recognized the tall and slender form. My eyes widened at the sudden realization. I immediately jumped back, hands covering my mouth in utter shock.

"Please tell me he's not dead, please tell me he's not dead, please tell me he's not dead..." I begged quietly. The silhouette grunted, showing signs of survival. I sighed in relief.

"You almost killed me—"

I crossed my arms over my chest as I shook my head in disapproval.

"On seconds thoughts, after hearing your voice, maybe killing you would've been the better choice." I implied, getting up while heavily glaring at him. He just replied with a smirk.

"Stop doing that face, it's creeping me out-" I paused, remembering the actual creepiness in his behavior.

"But that's beside the point. What in the actual heck were you doing watching me sleep?" I snapped.

"Are you some kind of psycho too now?"

The smug smirk appeared again, as he visibly preferred staring in amusement rather than actually answering me. I clenched my fists as my annoyance started showing.

"Alright, Pennywise, out of my damn room!" I scowled as I 'tried' pushing him out to the hallway.

"You know, your tiny hands can't even move me an inch." He chuckled. I groaned in frustration.

"Listen up, Daichi, I don't know what game you're playing, but for pikachu's sake stop the madness!"

"You know, sometimes I don't understand you-"

"You know damn well what I mean." I retorted as I glared daggers at him. "Quit playing, Kobe."

"Well I think you should quit this little game you're playing with that Australian weirdo." I froze. 'Oh so you're flipping the table around, I see.'

"Excuse me?"

"Oh, cut it out, Chaeyoung. You really thought you were playing it smoothly?" He questioned cockily. I gritted my teeth as I felt my blood boil. "This little secret of yours won't last long, trust me. Now that I know, I have the power of exposing your little game."

'This little scoobydoo-villain-wannabe will get it for sure!'

"You know what, Kobe, I'm not gonna waste my time with you, so feel free to believe what you want. I'll be off now." With that, I made my way down the stairs to search for Felix.

On the outside, I looked unbothered. However, my mind said otherwise. Nothing made me angrier than Daichi. This whole plan I had of bringing Felix over was for him to stop bothering me. If I somehow made him and both our families believe that, then they would finally cut some slack with the whole 'you and Daichi should get together' crap. But this just made it more complicated. Now I didn't even know how I felt towards Felix. My mind was just all over the place, I was so unfamiliar with everything. Overall, I felt completely and utterly lost.

And then there was my father: the ultimate threat that stood right in my way.

"Felix Lee, is it?"

If this whole plan failed, the biggest consequence I would have to face, was my father.
