3rd Person's POV
"It's clear! We have to go now!" Wu Jin yelled informing the group, Hyo Ryeong was the first to rush to him, afterwards Ji Min, then Joon Yeong, Nam Ra, On Jo, who called for Cheong San.
"You go first" Cheong San hurried at Dae Su who refused, so neither moved.
"Shit, I think I'm going to shit myself! Go!" Su Hyeok hurriedly went, rushing everyone out as Cheong San and Dae Su stayed behind before Cheong San grabbed the taller one by the collar and dragged him out the door to join the group.
More zombies rushed to the sound of the noise the friends had just made as they headed upstairs, Gwi Nam was not far behind getting up the stairs of the floor they were just in, Chae Rin chasing after him.
"Move" Gwi Nam grumbled.
"Gwi Nam, stop!" She yelled trying her hardest to grab him, but zombies were everywhere, and instead of grabbing the tall boy she grabbed random zombies by their shirts, pulling them down the stairs.
Chae Rin wanted to yell and warn her friends that the zombies were getting out of the zombie, and that worst, Gwi Nam was just a few steps away from them, but she tried her hardest not to make any sound as to not provoke more zombies to follow them.
The group had finally reached the door to the rooftop. A keypad besides it, but they didn't know the code.
Cheong San tried the handle but just couldn't get it to open as it was locked.
"Move" Dae Su said, pushing Cheong San away and trying to break the door.
Cheong San tried the keypad but couldn't get the password right.
Joon Yeong tried to talk to whoever and if they were somebody on the rooftop, which there was, but nobody replied.
Dae Su and Wu Jin tried their hardest to break the door, but it was impossible as it was bulletproof.
"They're coming" Nam Ra told Su hyeok.
"What's coming?" He asked her confused.
In their now zombie filled classroom, the video they recorded on the camera now played,
"Mon, but Cheong San chicken is still lame, if it were Cheong San Air, Cheong San auto or Cheong San group, it would be fine" His words echoed through the room.
"They're here" Nam Ra stated in a serious tone, zombies flooding in just seconds after, Cheong San and Su Hyeok fight against them, trying their best not to get bit whilst the others try to pry the door open.
"Throw this over!" Nam Ra yelled as she grabbed a blue plastic wrapper covering the eyes of the zombies.
Gwi Nam now walked confidently upstairs, allowing Chae Rin to finally caught up to him already out of breath.
"Move out of the way" He growled at a zombie that knocked into him, another hitting him from the back, he grabs its neck lifting it off the ground.
"Please stop this madness, Gwi Nam!" She pleaded to him, but he ignored her throwing her away from him as he uncovered the plastic, the zombie still in his hand.
"Gwi Nam, stop! Don't go close to them" She yells grabbing onto his jacket, she couldn't see his smirk as he stared at Cheong San.
"It's Chae Rin!" On Jo yelled upon noticing her friend.
"Ya!" Chae Rin angrily grabbed onto his arm once more, but he hissed throwing her down the stairs.
"Chae Rin" On Jo called out for her friend.
Chae Rin could feel her hand crack as anger bottled up inside her.
The two boys fought more of the zombies as Gwi Nam inched closer to Cheong San finally standing on the railing smiling darkly at the boy who hit him with the camera stand.
Gwi Nam's face turning to the side due to the strength of the hit.
Chae Rin grabbed onto his leg without even noticing, pulling him down the railing as he looked back at her shocked.
"Let him go" The girl taunted, both of her eyes turning red as her neck twisted in inhuman ways.
She broke his foot and he yelled, laughing soon after before he reached down to grab her by the neck bringing her into the view of the friends who gasped upon seeing her.
"You, have no control over me, darling" He hissed, she grabbed at his own hand squeezing it tight until he let go in pain.
"You, are nothing more than you were before. Disgusting" she sneered, this just made his madder as he got back up on the railing, Cheong San tried to strike him again, but Gwi Nam caught the camera pole and pulled him close by the collar.
"Give me your eye" He whispered as he placed his thumb on Cheong San's face trying to near his face.
Both Nam Ra and Chae Rin reacted.
Nam Ra grabbed him by the neck as Chae Rin had a hold on his hair, throwing his head back.
"What the hell? Fuck!" He said wheezing, as he struggled to breathe.
"I told you not to fucking mess with them" Chae Rin said, her nails digging deep into the back of his neck.
"Why didn't you die?" Nam Ra rhetorically asked him before using her hand to throw his down the stairs and onto the zombies.
Chae Rin stared at her friends for a while before walking away to drag Gwi Nam off, but soon enough he was back on his feet, punching the rooftop door.
Chae Rin was already pissed off as she went up the stairs, grabbing him by the neck before she threw him down the stairs again and against the wall, slowly making her way to him as he gasped for air.
"Give it up. As long as I'm on their side, you'll never be able to touch them" She whispered kneeling in front of his face, Gwi Nam spat at the floor.
"It's called revenge sweetheart. And I will obtain mine" He wheezed, Chae Rin laughed.
"Good luck trying" She muttered, going back up the stairs.
~~~~~~~
"We let Chae Rin outside!" On Jo said
"She's dragging him" Nam Ra told the group.
"Who is?" Su hyeok questioned the prez.
"Chae Rin. She just beat Gwi Nam up" She stated.
"She's coming upstairs"
"Ya! Open the door, I cleared it out, and he went away" Chae Rin said, already in a bad mood.
Cheong San ran to the door opening it as the girl meander out into the roof.
"Jeez, that asshole just doesn't give up. Fucking hell" She grumbled.
She barely had time to count who was in the rooftop before she was engulfed into a hug, Cheong San's scent involving her body.
"Oh, ya... why are you hugging me? Are you hurt?" She asked concerned as she pulled away to look at him, he simply stared at her, both of his hands going on her.
"They said you fell" He says, eyes staring right back into hers.
"I did, fourth floor. Would not recommend" She winces.
"How are you alive right now?" He asks her.
"I don't know. I just fell on top of Gwi Nam, and then I woke up and zombies didn't get near me" She smiled nervously.
"She's like Nam Ra" Su hyeok says, the girl's eyes widen.
"Where is Nam Ra?!" She asks looking around until her eyes landed on the girl in question.
"You're alive!" She squeals running to her, squeezing the poor girl almost to death.
"I'm glad you're alive too" the other whispered into Chae Rin's ear.
The two pulled away, and Chae Rin finally took the time to check on everyone, giving a much-needed hug to On Jo who was near tears.
"I thought you died" She cried into the taller one's arms, Chae Rin caressed her hair.
"I did tell you that I'd protect you whenever" she smiled, On Jo scoffs with a laugh punching the girl's shoulder.
"Missed me?" She asked the group, Dae Su hurriedly ran into the girl's arms, almost lifting her up.
Everyone aware that Chae Rin's most precious boy was Dae Su, as he had no evil bone in his body, she patted his back with a laugh as he pulled away.
Joon Yeong knocked fists with her, patting her hair.
"Glad you're alive"
"Glad to be back" she smiled at him.
She waved at Ji Min who, to put it nicely, had the bitchiest face on earth as she stared back at the girl, and then at Hyo Ryeong who was sad about the helicopter leaving but still gave a little wave, a little happy that the girl came back.
"What's up little bitch" She hurried jumped to hit the back of Su Hyeok's neck.
"Ya!" The taller male yelled grabbing onto it before putting the girl into a headlock.
"Ya, ya. She just came back from the dead, don't kill her again" Dae Su laughed.
"I was going to bite you... out of habit, but then I remembered that uh, I'm a halfie, so maybe I shouldn't" She confessed, Su Hyeok's eyes went big as the others laughed.
"Better to keep your teeth to yourself" Cheong San nodded with a laugh.
"Oops"
The girl looked around as the friends began to talk about Gwi Nam and how to make a sign for the helicopter, in case it came back.
"Why are you so quiet? It's unlike you?" Chae Rin asked as she approached Wu Jin who had a closed off face, staring off into the distance before he looked at the girl.
"How could you think to jump out?" He snapped at the girl, grabbing everyone's attention.
"Do you realize, how stupid that was?" He questions her.
"Wu Jin..." he laced a hand through his hair angrily looking away from her, the girl chuckled making her way closer to him.
"I get that you were worried, but I'm fine. I'm alive" She smiled reassuringly to him.
"You're not alive" He pointed out.
"I'm not, GRAA, either though" she said mocking a zombie, startling the others, the boy sighed, grabbing both of her arms and pulling her to his embrace.
Everyone stood in silence watching the two, Chae Rin's eyes were wide open, as Wu Jin had his closed exhaling through his mouth in a sigh.
Cheong San watched from besides Su Hyeok who gave him a bump of the shoulder.
"I told you you'd lose your opportunity if you didn't act on it" The other teased.
"Shut up"
"I'm still not letting the issue go" Wu Jin grumbles.
"Fine, then let's make a pact" Chae Rin suggested, he pulled away looking her in the eyes.
"A pact?"
"Yes. Not to sacrifice ourselves. Whatever the situation, let's not get ourselves killed trying to be the hero" Chae Rin explained, but he didn't look satisfied.
"You're going to break that pact in an instant" He said not convinced.
"I'm already dead though, I can't die" She shrugs, he glares at the girl.
"Fine! I'll try my best not to meddle" She says sticking out her pinky as he links his to hers.
"Hey love birds, help us out please" Joon Yeong called out to the pair who look at them in panic.
"We're Not - " the two say at the same time.
"Whatever. Help us out" Dae Su waves them off.
~~~~~~~
"On Jo" She calls out in a whiny tone, the girl laughs opening her arms for the taller female.
"What is it baby"
"I missed your hugs" she says hugging the girl closer.
"I have good news. I got closer to Nam Ra. I think" the smaller one whispered to the other, Chae Rin pulled away, a shocked but happy expression on her face.
"Is that so?"
"She's like you, she's quiet around strangers, very stoic and cold but she seems to want to get closer to others" she explained.
"She's a little misunderstood, but her heart is good. I really like her" Chae Rin smiled softly looking at the girl the two were mentioning, Nam Ra sitting on a chair by the borders of the rooftop.
"By the way, what happened between you and Wu Jin?" On Jo asks her.
"Nothing, he was just worried" Chae Rin answers confused.
"I thought you liked Cheong San" On Jo mentions, rather loudly, Chae Rin covering the girl's mouth in a rush.
"What are you so loud for woman?!" She whispered at her, On Jo blows air onto her hand making the other laugh at the tickling feeling.
"I do like him...but he doesn't like me, he likes you" Chae Rin smiled at the smaller one.
"It's fine, stop making that face. I just need to find a distraction"
"Wu Jin"
"Stop mentioning Wu Jin!"
"But he likes you!"
"Who likes her?"
"Fucking hell! You scared the fucking living shit out of me" Chae Rin cussed, rather loudly at Cheong San's sudden voice, the male ignores her turning to On Jo.
"Who likes Chae Rin?" He asks again.
"Wu Jin" she rambles before looking back at him again.
"Ya. Didn't he tell you anything about it?"On Jo asks him, Chae Rin hits the girl in the shoulder.
"Ya. He doesn't, we're just friends" She tried, but the girl simply swatter at the other's hands.
"He never mentioned. Why? Do you like him?" Cheong San asked turning to look at the girl.
Her heart beating faster as she stared back at him.
"Her heart is beating like crazy" Nam Ra told Su hyeok who was sitting besides her.
"What about his?" Su hyeok asked her, she hummed.
"It depends, right now he just seems to be breathing harder"
"Like he's mad?" she hummed.
"I don't like him. He's a precious friend, but I don't think it's at that point" She tells him.
"You think?" He pressed annoyed.
"I'll be back" On Jo smirked leaving the two alone.
"Where did you go? They said you'd head to the music room to see me. Why didn't you go?" He questioned her, crossing his arms over his chest.
"I had to use the bathroom" She smiled nervously, scratching at her nape.
"You went downstairs?" She asked her in shock.
"Yea..."
"You could've died. Why didn't you just go up?!" He pressed on.
"I had to pee!" She whined.
"You could've peed when you got to the music room" He huffed before turning to look at her glaring.
"On the floor? Out the window like Dae Su said?" she questioned him, squinting her eyes.
"Ok, so maybe you couldn't go to the bathroom. But you usually are good at holding it in! You went downstairs alone!"
"I found Gwi Nam there, though. He helped me after" She smiled nervously.
"Yea... and from what I heard, he bit you right after and then you jumped out the window" He scoffed.
"Ya! I was a hero" She bragged, swatting her hair over her shoulder.
"Oh, you're so proud aren't you" He faked proudness.
"Very" She smiled happily.
"I'm fine now, don't worry" She smiled, her hand inching to hol his as she looked down at them.
Cheong San's eyes followed hers, interlocking his hand with hers making the two blush.
Su Hyeok's words replaying on his head.
'Gyeong Su said she wanted to confess, but he liked her, so he ate the candy'
The time he was eating the candy, was almost 2 years ago, and Cheong San didn't know at the time what the two meant as they ran around him... but now he knew.
And maybe he did feel something for the girl...
Although he was afraid to maybe be too late to confess as his friend had caught feelings for the girl too.
But he decided to not backdown, aware of his chances, but also aware that this would likely be his only chance.
"Yoon Chae Rin" On Jo called out for the girl, snapping back to reality she snapped her eyes to her direction as she waved her over. She let go of Cheong San's hand, her hand getting colder almost immediately as she raced to her best friend's side, sitting on a chair besides her.
"What is it?" She asked her curiously.
"I saw you too" She laughed quietly, Chae Rin knocking shoulder with the smaller one.
"You two look good together" she smiled, Chae Rin blushes lacing her arm with On Jo's as she laid her head on her shoulder.
"What does SOS mean?" Dae Su asks curiously.
"It's a distress sign" On Jo replied.
"I know that. But what does it stand for?" He asks looking ahead.
"It doesn't stand for anything. SOS is just SOS" she explains.
"That makes no sense" He mumbled.
"That's just how it is. It has no meaning" She continued.
"Ya, it means 'Save our Ship'" Chae Rin whispers to the other.
"Just play along" she says back, the latter's lips curve down as she holds in a smile staring at Dae Su.
"Wait. Rescue Quickly... Speed ... Save?" He asks in his funny Konglish tone.
"Why'd you ask if you don't even believe me?" On Jo questioned him.
"I thought you'd know" he protested her words.
"I do know. Look it up. You'll see I'm right" On Jo confidently said crossing her arms.
"Whatever. How can I look it up? I don't have my phone" He grumbled.
"It's true Dae Su, it has no meaning" Chae Rin tried to convince him.
"What's wrong?" Cheong San asked approaching the 3.
"I asked what SOS meant, but they said it has no meaning" Dae Su explained, standing up.
"Just say you don't know" he mumbled irritated.
"It's true" Chae Rin asserted.
"It's true" Cheong San confirmed.
"Is it?" Dae Su asks skeptical.
"Yes. She's right. Why don't you believe them?" Cheong San questioned him, who still skeptical went to ask the class president.
On Jo got up annoyed but Cheong San stops her, Chae Rin stares at the two's interaction.
"Is it true?" Cheong San asks her.
"what?" On Jo asks confused.
"SOS doesn't mean anything? It's not an acronym?" Cheong San questions her.
"You don't believe me?"
"No" - cue the kick on the back of the knee, making him fall down on his knees, as Chae Rin gets up laughing at the two.
"The sun's about to set. Let's start a fire" On Jo simply said as she walked away.
"Are you okay?" The girl asked Cheong San, offering a hand to stand him up as she laughed on his face helping him up as he winced in pain.
"Stop laughing" he winced, she closed her mouth as she made noises instead.
"Ya" He cried out still holding onto his leg in pain.
"Sorry, sorry, it's not funny" she said zipping her mouth.
