Once Jaein regained her breathing, she flunged her hand across Jaejoong's face angrily. She was so disgusted and angry with him. She even detested herself for believing that he was any different from other men, when he helped cheer her up a while ago, despite being natural nemesis to each other.

Jaein (pulling up her quilt to cover her nakedness): Get out.

Her slap left red marks across Jaejoong's face, but he didn't retaliate or nudge at all. Not even when she told him to get out. Sensing that Jaejoong had not moved at all at her request, Jaein repeated her request, in a voice as calm as she could manage.

Jaein: I said... get out... I never want to see you again...

Jaejoong looked at her apologectically, but truthfully, there was no excuse for what he had done. And he knew it. He had gone too far, and no matter what he said now, she wouldn't be able to take it in anyway. She was too angry and upset now to listen to his explanation. He turned, grabbed his clothes on the floor, and left the room, and house.

Jaein's room...

After Jaejoong left, Jaein hugged herself in a bundle. She couldn't control her anger anymore, and she started crying again, sobbing uncontrollably while rocking her body to and fro.

Jaein's thoughts: Why am I so stupid??!!! Why did I trust him... I should have known... All men are the same... STUPID STUPID STUPID!!!

*Flashback*
A few years back, when Jaein was in a freshman...

Since her family was quite rich and influential, almost her entire school knew about her, despite her trying to keep a low profile. No doubt with her background, loads of people tried to befriend her, and she was very trusting, she accepted all of them without suspicion. But since, she was very trusting, many made use of her. For example, asking her to go out for expensive restaurant meals, ordering loads of food; or going shopping for branded goods, and then pretending to forget their wallets and make her pay, but never returning her a single cent.

Jaein never complained to her parents about all these, but she knew that it was due to her family background that people were befriending her. Sick of all the superficial friendships, she left to stay alone in a rented studio apartment, and gave tuition to earn her own income to pay for her expenses. She didn't want to use her parents' money anymore. She was still friendly to her friends, but once they realised that she had left her home, and didn't have her cards and chauffeur, they distanced themselves from her, as she had no more use to them. There were rumours around school that she was banished from the family, etc. Soon she became a loner in the school, and almost invisible. No one bothered to be nice to her anymore, and went back to their cliques. In fact, she had no friends anymore. She was shattered by their materialism, but it also made her feel that no one liked her enough to befriend her, as a normal person, not as her rich parents' daughter.

It was only a few months to their annual Dinner and Dance, that one of her coursemates tried to befriend her. And much to her surprise, it was the school's Kingka. And he even knew her name! He was very handsome, and also rich (but not as rich as Jaein's family), and had a lot of female admirers in the school. Jaein was in some of his classes, so she knew of him. But how he knew of her was a mystery to her. Since no one bothered to talk to her after she left her rich parents to stay alone. She trusted him and befriended him. He was very sweet and outgoing, and Jaein felt good around him. Never in her mind, that in a few weeks before the D&D, he asked her to go to the D&D with him as his partner. She agreed but was in shock.

On the night of the D&D, they met to the hotel where it was held. So many pairs of eyes were on them when they walked into the ballroom holding hands. And the whole night, he never left her alone, dancing with her, eating with her, and the whole time, he kept holding her hand in his. It was almost the end of the event, when Jaein excused herself to go to the restroom. Jaein was in the cubicle when she overheard...

Girl 1: Did you see our kingka with THAT girl?

Girl 2 (sarcastically): Yeah... She must be the envy of the entire ballroom's girls tonight...

Girl 1 (mockingly): Well she isn't going to be for long...

Girl 2 (curiously): What do you mean?

Girl 1: Don't you know?

Girl 2: What?

Girl 1: He has a bet with his friends to woo her before the D&D, and as you know she's still a virgin... So he has to get her in bed with him tonight. He has to film the process down on tape, and show his friends as proof of his conquest. If he does, he'll win the bet and get a Porsche to add to his collection of cars!

Girl 2: My... No wonder he's hanging out with her... I should have known that she isn't his kind of taste... Ha ha ha...

The girls left the restroom, and Jaein emerged from the cubicle, shocked and angry with herself. She walked out and saw that a group of girls had started gathering around him, and he was distracted by them, and flirting with them.

Jaein's thoughts: I should have known better than to trust you... You're just the same as the rest... It's all about money and sex... And nothing else...

She left the ballroom quietly, and went back to her apartment alone and cried her heart out for being so foolish to give her heart to someone who's even more superficial than the rest of her ex-friends...

The next day back in school wasn't nice, as the kingka was angry with Jaein for leaving him alone, and causing him to lose the bet. But Jaein kept low till their joint class, and he confronted her.

Kingka: What's wrong with you man?!!! I'm so nice to you to bring you to the D&D and you left me there alone??!!!

Jaein: Sorry... I know I made you lose the bet...

Kingka (interrupting): Ha ha... So you know of the bet... But what's the harm? I mean... No one really likes you from the heart right? You've never had a REAL friend, or boyfriend... No harm letting me give you what you don't have, and me getting what I want in the process...

Jaein: Sorry... I think you're mistaken... I don't need such FRIENDS... But if you want a Porsche so badly, I can ask my parents to give you one... But in exchange, please leave me alone...

And Jaein walked off.

*End of flashback*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jaejoong's room...

He went into the shower once he reached home. He let the warm water run down his overheated body. He was warm, drunk and exhausted from the sex. His eyes looked down and he noticed his penis, stained with streaks of blood. Jaein's virgin blood...

Jaejoong's thoughts: Mianeyo... I didn't know... I thought... You... I... *sigh*

He soaped himself and rinsed off, trying to wash away the guilty feeling he had in his heart.

Jaejoong's thoughts: But why do I feel a tiny bit of joy, inspite of all the guilt...
