Luck and You

And Patrice woke up feeling all filled up with a huge amount of negativity.

So this is the day.

Today is Monday.

The most dreaded day of her life.

Today, she will be starting her tutor sessions with her most hated person in the whole wide world, Lance Kim, Infinite's L.

How she wanted to just pretend that this is all just a dream.

Or a nightmare, in the case that L is included in here.

God knows how she hates him with all her might and she would rather kill herself than get, even just a millimeter, close to that guy.

If not for his mother being all so nice and all so welcoming to her, she would not, not in her sane mind, continue doing this tutor thing. She lazily dragged her feet to prepare to go to Woollim today.

"Gosh! This luck of mine is really... Ugh!" She grunted as she opened the door to the bathroom.

She wanted to scream and shout and get wild right now.

She wanted to run away.

She wanted to just kill L so that all her problems will be solved.

How she wished it was not illegal to kill a person.

*This is it, Patrice Kwon.* Patrice thought as she and Helga walked inside the huge building of Woollim.

Mrs. Kim will talk and explain everything to the tutors first before starting the first session.

Everyone knows about this and each and every student in Woollim have been watching out for the tutors of their precious oppas. Specifically L.

Patrice knows that L is the most popular one among Infinite and she knows how much his fans will hate her for her.

But the hell why would she care about it anyway?

She hates him and there is no way for his fan girls to go all-crazy trying to think that she will take their "PRECIOUS" oppa away. Hell, that is the least thing she wants to do.

Well, it isn't even on the list of what she will possibly do.

Not now. Not ever. Not in eternity.

"Do you think the session will go well?" Helga asked Patrice as she kept on fiddling with her hands due to severe nervousness.

Helga is so nervous because Night will be with her almost the whole.

And her heart might betray her anytime.

Her heart might burst out with a certain close proximity to Night.

Her heart is so fragile when she is with Night - or with just even thinking about Night.

Patrice gave her a queer look. "Mine is totally not going to go well." She replied. "But I guess, yours will be fine." She added, trying to encourage her.

Helga laughed awkwardly. She is still not moved nor convinced on Patrice's reply. If Patrice has a negative feeling toward L, Helga has a negative feeling towards herself. She just can't trust herself when she imagines how Night and she will be interacting for almost a day.

Patrice just smiled and nodded, patting her friend's shoulder. "Trust me, everything will be fine for you and Night. Trust yourself!" She encouraged.

Helga just nodded. "I wish." She replied, still unsure of herself.

Patrice chuckled. "Just go with the flow." She reminded as they walked inside the room, where Mrs. Kim will be meeting them.

The other tutors were in the room now, looking so excited. Like this was a dream come true for them.

Sofie, Alonzo's tutor, was even practicing some cheesy lines to throw at him the moment the session starts.

Patrice felt so disgusted at this and she definitely would put Sofie Ha at the top under the "I am an obsessed Infinite fan” list.

Jina was holding onto a bento which Patrice thinks will be handed to Elliot later.

"Well, she came prepared." Helga whispered to Patrice as they both stared at Jina.

Patrice just shook her head. "What are these girls?" She asked in disbelief. "Aren't they going to leave some respect and dignity for themselves?" She asked again. Helga just shrugged. "But maybe knowing them will make it better, right? First impressions aren't always correct." She suggested as she sat on the empty seat on the corner. Patrice rolled her eyes and sighed. "Yeah. I guess so too." She said as she sat beside Helga.

The tutors were doing different stuffs, individually.

Patrice had noticed how the fan girls swooned outside the room. *Even more obsessed.* Patrice thought as she rolled her eyes inwardly.

"Hey, I am Michelle." Jeric's tutor suddenly spoke out of nowhere.

Patrice and Helga looked at her and smiled - Patrice's was somewhat a shocked smile.

"Hello. I'm Eumi." Helga introduced herself and even shook Michelle's hand.

Michelle smiled and looked at Patrice, waiting for her to introduce herself.

Patrice smiled and bowed a bit. "I am Patrice. Nice to meet you, Michelle." She introduced.

Michelle smiled and shook her hand as well. "Nice to meet you too, Patrice and Helga." She replied. "I am Jeric's tutor." She started to open up.

Helga smiled. "I am Night's and Patrice is L's." She replied.

Michelle's eyes widened. "L?" She asked in disbelief. "Wow. That's amazing! I am so envious!" She beamed.

Patrice smiled sweetly. *Please tell me you want to exchange!* She pleaded in her thought as she looked at Michelle.

Michelle chuckled. "But Jeric is my bias in Infinite so, I am happy with him." She added, making Patrice lose the light she is seeing.

"Really?" Patrice asked, trying to suppress her failure.

Michelle nodded and chuckled. "Oh, good luck with your sessions! I heard the guys are really poor in intellectual ability and you should have a lot of patience in your pockets to get through a day." She informed. Patrice smiled. *I wish I have enough.* She thought as she nodded at Michelle.

Helga nodded as well. "Well, I don't think Night is that bad." She tried to cover Night up.

Michelle nodded. "Yeah. Night is one of the good ones." She said before looking into Patrice. "Unfortunately, L isn't on the positive side." She said. "Good luck, Patrice." She patted Patrice's shoulder. Patrice chuckled and nodded. "I know that." She said. *Probably the HELL level.* She continued in her mind.

Michelle smiled. "Well as I can see, you seem to be a girl with a lot of patience, Patrice. Just perfect for L." She complimented.

Patrice just smiled weirdly. "Thanks." She replied. *If you only knew.* She continued in her thoughts.

Just then, a huge scream was heard outside.

Patrice looked at the girls screaming their lungs out.

"That may be Infinite." Michelle spoke. "Their fan girls are really amazing huh?" She asked Helga and Patrice.

Helga nodded. "I believe they are the most loved among girls our age, right?" She asked.

Michelle nodded. "Especially L. He is handsome and he can possibly do anything. That's why girls, not just our age, like him a lot. They would even die just to see him." She babbled.

Helga nodded as she looked at Patrice who seemed to be so unaffected about this. "Good luck, Pat." She patted Patrice's shoulder.

Patrice scoffed. "Yeah. Really good luck." She said sarcastically.

Helga shook her head. "Just try to enjoy yourself whenever he is around." She advised.

Patrice scoffed. "Says someone who can't stay still when Night is around." She replied earning her a glare form Helga.

Michelle then gasped. "Oh my god! They are here!" She pointed at the door, with her voice sounding like she is going to have a heart attack soon.

Patrice and Helga looked at the door and yeah, there appeared seven princes.

Princes in uniform that perfectly match their appearance.

Even in their uniform, they look like fashionistas.

Jeric came in first followed by his members. He was polite enough to greet the tutors inside, making Michelle 'figuratively' die in her seat.

Patrice just shook her head at these tutors who can't even contain their happiness and giddiness upon seeing the Kingkas.

*What do they like about them anyway? They are all dumb.* She thought as she eyed each one of the Infinite members.

Then her eyes landed on the eyes of the person she least wants to see.

Lance Kim.

Patrice immediately rolled her eyes as she saw L smirk, looking her way.

The boys were about to sit at the back and they are going to pass Patrice's way. Everyone was kind enough to smile at her and at the tutors, except for L, who stopped at Patrice's place and smirked. "We meet again, Karate Kid." He greeted with a voice full of sarcasm.

Patrice sighed and rolled her eyes. "Go and play with your notebook, Death Note." She replied loud enough for Infinite to hear and chuckle.

L glared at her before walking towards his friends. *We'll see how you can survive a death note's wrath, Patrice Kwon.* He thought all the way.
