Eun Min looked down at the number in her hand and knew that she wouldn't be going to the dance with her boyfriend, and there was no way Professor Hak was going to be waiting at the bottom of the stairs with that devilish smirk that made her weak in the knees. No. She was nosy and always made sure that she knew what was going on in the school that she liked to believe that she ran. So, if she knew that neither her loving boyfriend, or the charming devil were waiting for her, it actually gave her a little thrill. Would it be someone who would fawn all over her all night? Someone who would do whatever she said or even try to convince her for a night of fun? Would she be able to resist after a night of dancing and fun?

She pulled on her tight fitting black dress and applied a little of of makeup and then made sure her auburn hair was in place before she walked out of the Gajang dorm room and down the stairs to the dining hall where everyone was waiting for the dance to begin.

Mabeob was such a small school, probably one with the highest standards of all of the school. She smiled when she spotted the person holding up the sign with her matching number. Hyun Ki! She had spent many days with the boy, teasing him and enjoying his company.

Maybe she wouldn't be worshipped at this dance, but she certainly was going to have a good time. Eun Min smiled and walked up to the ginger haired boy and plucked the number from his hand,
"I really hope you dance."

Eun Min smiled at Hyun, knowing that she could be stuck with someone horrible for the night. Someone who would step on her feet or who would try to get her to suck them off in the bathroom. She was a lady, that was someone reserved for the end of a good first date or when she was bored. Like a lady should.

Of course she noticed the smirk on Bon's face as he passed by the auburn boy and knew that Bon was a special breed of asshole. He was her twin in everything but chromosome and she could only stand him in small portions. They were cut from the same cloth and there was a reason she always cried into her pillow or smashed a mirror when she was drunk. She hated herself some days. Flaunted it on others. Basic life for a halfblood, or at least that was what Mabeob trained her to believe. She was either tainted from her muggleblood, or she was blessed for having the magic at all. Never know where to turn and Mabeob made sure of that. Twisted fucks.

She smiled when he spoke up to him, they always had easy conversations. Probably because she never saw him as the type to try to get into her dress or grab her rear. He treated her like a real friend and that was strange for her at times. Still something to get used to.
"I love it when the mouse roars."

When Hyun would speak up, she loved it. It always brought a smile to her face because for that second she was seeing him. The full him, the real him. He wasn't hiding behind a book and he wasn't just blending into the wall,
"I'm really happy we're paired together." She spoke honestly, probably would even write a thank you note to whoever set up the pairings. She could deal with a night without her boyfriend for a little bit, so why not use the dance as a time to get to know Hyun Ki better?

She took his hand, walking with him out to the dance floor right as the song started back up.
"So tell me, who were you hoping to be paired up with? Honestly?" She placed her one hand in his and the other on his shoulder. She took enough dance lessons when she was a girl to know how to dance. She could even remember dancing with her father before he died. She could remember dancing with him around their kitchen while she stood on his feet and he would speak to her in French.

No father would be proud of her now. She kept a smile on her face, just like her mother taught her and tried to push all of her wishes that it had been her mother who died in that flaming car accident out of her head.
"Fess up." She teased, moving with him to the beat of the music.

She fought for respect, she fought to be equals, she fought for everything that she ever wanted wanted because she knew that no one would ever just hand this to her. That she would never be able to be good enough on her looks, on her sexuality, on her appeal. She would have to have the respect that she fought for, when her looks faded. When she would be able to find someone as depraved as she is and eventually settle down. She stole a look at the professors and knew that she might have found that someone. Someone who loved bending her over and spanking her, as much as she loved getting it done to her.

Out of all of the people she could have had, Hyun Ki was one of her good friends. She scanned the crowd, making sure that Bae Hyung wasn't shoving his tongue down some girl's throat just because they were dates for the evening. When she saw that he didn't even arrive yet, she was curious if her boyfriend was just off pouting because he knew that they weren't dates for the evening. She would have some time with him when the dance was over, because she had to discuss either why he didn't show up, or what it was like to be with someone else for the night.

"Oooh, Ha Neul, he's a cute one." She wiggled her eyebrows to earn a laugh from him. She wasn't sure if the entire world knew that Hyun preferred men, or if he even was gay. It wasn't her place to gossip about people who were good to her. She would protect any thing that Hyun Ki had to say to her, and if she heard anyone make fun of him for having a crush on Ha Neul, she would make sure that they had hair remover put into their shampoo.

"No need to get that panicked look. You can trust me." She stepped in beat with him, enjoying the soft music and the rapidly filling up dance floor with all of the other students dancing with each other. She stole another look at Professor Hak, hoping that she was being subtle enough to keep Hyun Ki from knowing about her crush. The more people who thought that Hak hated her, the easier it would be to sneak around with him if that was what happened between them.

"It would have been nice to have him with me. He doesn't want his brother to know too much about us, so I guess it's for the best." She didn't understand why. Maybe to make it eaiser to have time together and make the sneaking around easier? She knew that Bae Hyung wasn't ashamed of being with her. He paraded around like a proud peacock that he was able to have her on his arm, but that didn't stop her from thinking about all of the reasons why he wouldn't want his brother to know.

Eun liked to think that she had a talent for figuring out who would be good in a relationship, Hyun Ki and Ha Neul were definately high on that list. She liked the way that Ha looked out for him. Made sure that Hyun was safe and that no one picked on him. Eun Min did her part to make sure that no one messed with him, but there were only so many threats that she could make as a female. She did much better messing with girls. Ruin their reputation, put dirt in their makeup, she did it all.

"You should just ask him out already. It's clear that he cares about you on some level. Why not check and see if it's in the bend you over and fuck your brains out?" She was always the epitome of class when it came to topics like this. Probably why she did so well in her detention with Bae Hyo. He wanted her to list all of the ways she was a dirty whore, and she wanted to show him all of it. She was curious how long she would be able to keep both of the brothers happy, but knew where her loyalty would eventually lie. For now.

"I think it's dumb too. I've tried but he doesn't want Professor Hak to know just yet." She told herself it was because he knew how his brother looked at her. How he got that glint in his eye whenever they walked down the halls together and he didn't want Bae Hyo to go after her harder in some sibling battle.
"Thank you, Hyun Ki." She carefully kissed his cheek in thanks and followed along with the music.

When the song ended, she smiled at her auburned haired dance partner and motioned towards the tables,
"Want to get a drink, or something to eat?"

Eun grinned and thought that it was adorable that Hyun questioned if Na liked him like that. Of course he did! Who wouldn't! Even if the older male wasn't into Hyun like that, those things were easily changed. Sexuality was very fluid and natural. She held the belief that everyone should try being with someone of the same gender at least once. While she had never been with a girl, it was high on her to-do list. She could probably talk Bae Hyung into a threeway, or maybe even Bae Hyo. Maybe not the latter. She wanted to keep the older Hak to herself.
"Even if he doesn't now, he could eventually."

She wasn't a fan of giving up when she wanted something. Some people thought that it was something that would get her in trouble eventually, but most of the time it was good. Eun loved the sound of the music all around them, and it was a lovely evening. She was with someone who was a good friend and there was very little more that she could want for the evening.

"Ooh, cake sounds lovely." She walked with him out of the dance floor area and to where the tables were, all of them filled with food, drinks, sweets and cakes. Anything that they could have wanted for the evening. Eun grabbed some of the chocolate covered berries. They were all of her favorites. She took a couple and placed them on a small plate and waited for Hyun to finish picking out his desired sweets for the evening.

"Everything looks so good." She took a bite from one of the berries and scanned around the crowd for anyone else who she might have known. There was that, and she wanted to see if Hyun's crush was about and if he was with anyone there. Eun Min would make it her new mission around the school to figure out if they could be a thing, and make it happen. Even if she had to push them into a broom closet together and hope for the best results.

Eun smiled when she heard how excited Hyun Ki got over the cakes. Even though she usually didn't eat too many sweets like that, she grabbed a smaller slice, mainly from how excited he got over it. She wasn't the best baker in the world, mainly because she got distracted or thought that a heaping spoonful was just as good as a level one. When she was younger she could remember her father baking all sorts of pastries for her. Her mother would scold him that Eun didn't need all of those sweets, and that he was spoiling her. Even back then her mother knew that she would favor her father. Eun only had a handful of memories about the muggle man, and already loved him more.

She took a seat with Hyun and looked over the plate of pastries unsure which one she wanted to try first. She took a bite of one of the berries and was curious about what Hyun's family was like. She knew that he was in her house, so clearly he was a halfblood as well. Was his mother the muggle and his father the wizard? Did he have siblings? She realized that they were good friends, she would do almost anything for the boy, and yet she barely knew anything about him.

Eun Min leaned forward and took a bite from his pastry and couldn't help but smile when the creme touched her tongue and made her melt. It was delicious.
"Oh my goodness, that's amazing." She looked at her plate and took one of the chocolate covered strawberries and took a bite from that.
"Wanna try this?"

It was covered in milk chocolate and almonds, delicious.
"Does your mom bake often?" She asked, curious what her own mother would have said if she even suggested baking. Probably laugh and order someone else to do it.

She smiled when he took a bite of the berry she offered up. It might have looked romantic to some people, but she was just focused on sharing some delicious food with her friend. She didn't care about eating something he had his lips on, she knew that he took care of himself and wouldn't go to the dance with a cold or anything. She was the one making out with both of the Hak brothers.

Eun Min placed the top green part of the strawberry on her plate and eyed the small cakes that he had the right mind the grab. She pointed off into the distance and smiled at him,
"Look, a distraction!" She giggled and stole one of the smaller cakes off his plate and placed it on her own. She would give him anything off her plate that he would want, and even go back up to get them some if he wanted them.

"That sounds nice. I don't think my mom ever even stepped into our kitchen without barking orders at someone." She took a bite of the stolen cake and closed her eyes to the delicious flavors. Sweet cream, berry compote, flaky crust, it was amazing. She would have to go back and eat each one thinking about how her mother would scream at her for eating a pastry.
"Maybe during this summer we could meet up and you could show me your mom's shop?"

She would love to be able to hang out more with Hyun Ki, and assuming that she wasn't too busy bouncing between the two Hak boys, she would be able to make it work.
"My parents? Well my dad died when I was a kid, so I live with my monster and my step-monster." They were both pretty terrible, but they graciously allowed her to have a comfortable life, and gave her the last name of a renowned pureblood family, so she should be happy with them. Too bad she hated them both.
