Mystery Lover Ch. 4
4~ SHE'S BAD
Every since that Erika never brought up what had almost happened to with them in the hidden location. She kind of wanted to keep it that way. She would walk to school and once she saw Taemin she would engulf him in a big hug which caused heads to turn. She had heard the rumors that people assumed that they were dating due to the way they acted towards each other.
Truthfully, she ignored what they were saying because she knew that why would she want to date someone that was a celebrity. She liked their relationship and wanted to keep it that way.
When they were in class she would joke about his new hairstyle and Taemin would get upset about it. "You look like a girl, Taemin. Why would they think this would look go on you?" She would say to him.
He would roll his eyes as he slammed his locker's door and storm away from her. He couldn't help that hairstyle he was wearing was a part of their new concept. He himself hated it as well but it wasn't like he could say something about it. He just had to live with it until he was able to change it. She pushed him on his back when she felt that he was ignoring her. He knew that she didn't like it when he ignored her and she knew he didn't like when she talked about his hair, so they were even.
They both walked into the class where she sat behind him and just played with his hair while he placed his head down on his desk. Finally, he felt a yank and yelped out holding the back of his head. "Really, Rika, can you stop," he hissed.
She pulled her hands away and give him an innocent look. "What, I didn't do anything. It was your chair," she said innocently.
Taemin looked at his chair and back to her. He knew it was her but really didn't feel like arguing with her. He kissed his teeth and placed his head back down on the desk. "So when is your comeback, Taemin?" She asked him softly.
"Why?" He asked, annoyed.
"I just want to see you perform," she answered.
Taemin lifted his head up and turned to look at her. "So when are you so intrigued about what I do? I thought you didn't care about that stuff," he said, smiling.
"It's not that I don't care, I just hate being around dozens of screaming girls," she told him.
"Really?" He said, leaning on her desk. She leaned back with a devious look on her face.
"Yes, plus the way they are so attached to their oppas, I feel sorry for all of you," she uttered.
"Well, it's not that bad but if you want to know it's this Friday," He said, turning back around in his seat as the teacher walked through the door. "I'll save you a ticket so you won't have to worry, okay."
Erika patted the back of his back really hard as she was happy that he would do that for her. "Thanks, oppa~" she cooed at him.
Taemin laughed at her calling him oppa, even though they were days apart she still called him oppa when she knew that he would do something for her. He just shook his head as he leaned his head on his right arm.

It was Friday afternoon and since SHINee was having their comeback, Taemin was able to be excused from all classes for the day. He was happy that he was able to sleep in a little bit later so he could be well rested for tonight.
It was around noon when Taemin heard a knock at his door and in walked Minho. He had his phone up to ear and was waving Taemin to come out for a second. Taemin got up from out of his bed and followed his hyung out to the main room. Out in the living room, a female was sitting on the couch with her hands in front of her and she was talking to Jonghyun and Jinki.
Jonghyun pointed up and she followed his finger to see Taemin standing frozen. "Taemin, hey?"
She headed over to him and greeted him with a big hug as the rest of the members looked on with shocked faces. "Um, Taemin, she says that she knows you, is that correct?"
Taemin stood frozen as Erika released him from her grip. All he could do was nod his head with a yes.
"See I told ya," she said, cheerfully in an informal way of speaking.
Finally snapping back to reality, Taemin turned his attention to Erika who was speaking informally to his hyungs. "Erika you can't speak to them like that, they are older than you."
Erika turned back to the guys that were eyeing her up and down with a disgusted look. "Why not? Aren't they your friends, so that makes them my friends too right?" She told him.
The three guys just stared at her before they turned to walk away before they said something that they shouldn't. "I understand, that you were raised mostly in the states, Erika, but you here in South Korea and you have to respect those older than you."
Erika scoffed as she picked up her bag and turned to leave the apartment. She open and closed the door without saying another word. Taemin watched on as he rubbed his face with his hand. He headed over to where his hyungs were. "I'm sorry, she a classmate of mines."
All of Taemin's hyungs were sitting at the table when he approached them. "So this is the Erika that Kai was talking about," Kibum said.
Taemin nodded his head nervously to confirm that was correct. "Normally, she is not like that. I'm not sure why she is acting like that."
"Really?" asked Jonghyun," and how does she normally act?"
Taemin stuffed his heads in his pocket. He was trying to figure out the best way to explain Erika's attitude. "Well, she very forthcoming and does things on instinct but normally she's ..."
"I call that a brat?" Kibum interrupting saying.
"I think you shouldn't hang around her, she's a bad influence on you, Taemin," Minho stated.
"Yeah, Kai stated that you have been missing days due to spending your time with her," Jinki provided. "Maybe you should back off from her because if word gets out that you hanging out with a female then it won't look go for us especially the fact that were having a comeback."
Taemin slowly nodded his head as he listens to his hyungs to him. He backed up and headed back to his room to collect some of his stuff that he needed to bring with him to the MBC building. Just then he heard a beep on his phone and went to pick it up from off of his bed.
He swapped his phone and saw that it was a message from Erika. "See you tonight on stage," she told him with a smiley face.
Taemin softly chuckled as he swapped typed back a message to her. "Yeah, see you soon too," he answered back before turning off his phone.
As he was heading out of the room, a knock came at their front door and in walked their manager to take them to the MBC building.
