The noisy table turned quiet when a girl went up to you. The boys looked at the new arrival, expecting her to say what she wants so they could hear Jungwoo's joke about the fruit he was eating.

"Yes?" you curiously asked the new student you met earlier on your class. You can also see the other students looking curiously at the girl who went up to you. Because no one dares to go near your table especially during lunch. Aside from the fact that it's too noisy, Taeyong just doesn't like new people.

"C-can I join t-he table?" she asked while bowing down. After hearing what she said, you heard the people murmuring and telling the new girl how shameless she was and when you looked at her, she bowed more.

"No, go find your seat somewhere else." Taeyong deadpanned, not even giving the girl a second glance.

"Taeyong.." you called out and when you turned to the girl again, her cheeks was bright red.

"Uhm, Beth-" you spoke and the boys knew what you'll say so they spoke first.

"There's not enough seats, sorry. Maybe next time?" Johnny smiled in a friendly way while looking at Jungwoo, encouraging him to talk to make it sound convincing. 

But before Jungwoo could speak more, the girl bowed and excused herself.

"That was mean!" you scolded them. They just looked at you sheepishly and went back not their normal banters.

You then turned to look at the girl but she was already nowhere to be found. 

"Don't worry about it, there's a lot of empty seats." Taeil whispered as he pointed at the half empty cafeteria. You just nodded in response.

The classes after lunch went well. Aside from the new assignments that you have to finish tonight, there's nothing important left to do. You can already see the boys outside before the teachers dismissed the class. Apparently, the boys don't have any activities after school so they were all ready to come with you and Yuta to meet his parents. Though Taeil had to pass because he had a job to do.

"The princess is being fetched!" your classmates teased while the other girls were excitedly murmuring and saying how handsome your friends was. 

You then turned to Beth who was silently sitting on her seat. Ever since the afternoon classes started, she avoided your gaze even when you tried to give her a smile. Thinking that she might've been embarrassed, you just let her be. You felt sorry for her though, what Taeyong said was unnecessary, you made sure you don't forget to scold him after this class.

"You guys are early." you commented, they hurried and took your things one by one before they answered.

"We have a shortened period." Mark replied. He was classmates with Johnny, Donghyuck and Jungwoo. 

"I skipped my last class. The teacher is not there anyway." Taeyong said.

"Yeah, too bad I didn't went with you. I just bothered Doyoung while he was sleeping." Jaehyun sighed and then the two started fighting again.

"And you, Yuta?" you asked him. 

"I went to the field when I heard that there was no teacher." he smirked. The four of them are in the same class as well. You hated it when you found out that you're the only one left out during the sectioning. But you eventually thought that it was for the better because it would've been very chaotic if you were with them.

"Alright, let's go to Taeil's first before heading to Yuta's." you announced and they all agreed. Even though they don't show it that much, you knew that the boys missed their oldest friend too. Taeil is such a good person, he never fights and he's the aid of the group. Which is why he was treasured by all of you too.

"Good afternoon!" you greeted the newly changed Taeil. Apparently his last class finishes the same time as yours so you were able to visit him at least once or twice a week if you weren't so busy with school.

"I just saw you this lunch, why are you guys here?" he asked while playfully putting on his annoyed face.

"Were here to file a complaint so you'll get fired." Taeyong said while softly attacking the older.

"HEY HEY!" Taeil defensively said.

"Right! Attack the subject!" Donghyuck shouted and all of you went to tickle the poor Taeil.

When the bell on the door was heard, all of you went on like nothing happened. Pretending like you were looking at some candy bars on the counter and the others looking at the chips section, Taeil started entertaining the woman who entered.

"What can I get you ma'am?" Taeil politely asked.

"Get me these." the woman said, throwing the paper on the counter. 

You looked at her in disbelief, almost answering her in the same manner, Taeil took your attention to give you a signal that it was okay. So you sighed and continued looking at the candy bars that you certainly won't eat.

"I like your watch." the woman complimented while looking at the new watch that your mom bought from her trip. 

"Well, I don't like you." you shortly answered while giving her a sarcastic smile.

"This little sh-" the woman mumbled and before she could continue, the boys already had your back.

"What did you say?" Yuta asked.

"And who are you? The boyfriend of this disrespectful kid?" she scoffed while looking disgusted.

"What's happening here?" Taeil interrupted while holding some products, it must be the woman's orders.

"These students are irritating me! Get them out of here now!" she demanded while pointing at us.

"I can't do that ma'am they are customers-"

"Hah! for sure they can't even buy anything because they are as poor as a rat!" she spat, still looking at your group with the same disgusted glare.

"How much are you worth?" Taeyong asked and the woman went silent.

"Twenty bucks?" Doyoung teased while giving her a sarcastic smile.

"Where do you work, Miss?" Johnny asked while looking at her with no expression.

"S-see! See! They don't even respect elderly! And you! You have no use! What kind of employee are you?!" she said while pointing at Taeil.

"I'll have to escort you outside ma'am." Taeil briefly said while looking at her politely.

You then grabbed the woman's order and offered it to her.

"Go and never come back ma'am. This poor rat will pay your orders just so you could go on your way." you said while shooing her away.

Before she could answer back, the other boys escorted her out.

"I'll make sure your boss knew about this! You'll get fired!" she threatened while looking at the unfazed Taeil.

"Looks like we really got Taeil hyung fired." Donghyuck said when they got back.

"Don't worry, we got your back." Yuta winked and everyone agreed.

As long as we have each other, no one will be left behind.
