"Ugh, I have 2 lectures today," Mark sobbed to his best friend, Johnny.

"Sucks to be you."

"Dude! I don't wanna~," Mark whined, clinging onto Johnny's arm.

"Dude!" Johnny mimicked Mark, "you have to! Didn't your mom want you to be a doctor or something? That means you have to go in!"

"noooooooo,"

Before they knew it they were outside Mark's lecture hall just a few minutes early. Johnny quickly released Mark's grip on him and scurried off.

Mark huffed and opened the door, scanning the room for an empty seat. He was about to sit down in his usual seat at the back until he noticed someone he had never seen before sitting at the front.

Mark stared at them with wide eyes, before tactically sitting right behind the new boy.

He didn't know what made him want to sit near the boy. Nor did he know the reason he couldn't stop staring. Maybe it was his honey skin that glowed in the artificial lighting or his soft and bouncy looking hair.

Mark wanted to see his face too if only he could get him to turn around... too bad Mark is socially awkward and turns bright red if someone looks at him for too long.

wait, why do I wanna see his face so badly!?! Mark, what are you even thinking!? He's just a random guy! wtf!!!??!

With around 10 minutes to spare of the lecture, Mark had completely lost interest in what the Doctor was saying. He was practically falling asleep in his chair from the boredom. As he readjusted himself to get comfy, Mark knocks one of his pens with his arm.

shit...

Mark watches as the pen rolls off the desk and onto the floor... right next to the boy in front of him.

His heart starts beating faster just thinking about having to speak to the boy. Why did he make him so nervous? Mark was just conjuring up the courage to politely tap him on the back and ask for his pen when the boy started to move.

He leaned down and picked up Mark's pen before turning around and placing it on Mark's desk.

"You dropped this," the boy said with a smile, before turning back around.

Mark couldn't even conjure up a response. He just stared at his face. It was ethereal.

Mark quickly grabbed his ears as he felt himself turning red and flustered.

What am I thinking??! He just looked at me!! Don't start this gay shit with me now brain, you know I like girls ONLY.

The lecture ended and Mark had to quickly collect himself. He watched as the boy in front packed up his belongings quicker than him and left the hall.

Mark rushed putting his things in his bag and tried to get out of the door to follow him, only to be blocked by a hoard of people at the door.

By the time Mark got out of the door, the mystery boy was nowhere to be seen.

At lunch, Mark played with his food while Johnny and a new friend Jaehyun sat opposite him.

"Why are you doing that with your food?" asked Jaehyun, looking at Mark's mashed up food.

"No reason."

"It looks like youuu-...." Johnny started, pointing at Mark. Mark lifted his head up to hear what Johnny has to say. "... had a bad lecture!"

"Ugh! That's not it!" Mark stabbed his fork into his mush. "I'm getting a drink."

Mark trudged over to the vending machine area to get a drink. He watched as two people bumped into each other, one falling onto the floor. The one still standing walked off ignoring the boy

Mark ran over to the boy on the floor, helping him pick up all his change that had spilled out.

Mark handed the change to the boy before he realised who it was.

"Thanks," said the boy, taking the change from Mark. "Aren't you the one from the lecture earlier?"

"Oh yeah, that was me aha."

"I guess we're both a bit clumsy then," the boy from the lecture said smiling at Mark.

"Oh, I'm, uh, not clumsy... I was just sleeping,"

The boy laughed at Mark's comment, making him feel more at ease.

"Uh, my name's Mark, nice to meet you."

Mark held out his right hand for the other to shake. Instead, the boy just stared at his hand, confused.

"Why are you holding your hand out to me?"

"What?" Mark was confused - was this kid stupid or something? "I just- uh, it's just what you do when you meet someone, you know?" Mark said awkwardly, convinced the other boy is teasing him.

"Oh," the boy held out his left hand, "my name's Haechan. Nice to meet you too!"

Mark stared at the boy's hand before retracting his right hand and holding out his left so their hands could shake. Haechan looked at the other boy with wide eyes before quickly smiling and walking away.

Haechan huh??? That name suits him a lot, but why didn't he know how to shake my hand?? has he never met anyone before lolll
