Chapter 2 - Butterfly

Test Tube's POV :
This morning I just put my book in the locker, but while walking down the school hallway. I started talking to myself. My mind is only focused on one. One that keeps me thinking.

Since yesterday Lightbulb said that, it made me think twice. All that revolves is the words, over and over. Second by second. That's all I have in mind.

Sometimes, I was always so concerned about my goals that I forgot to make myself happy.

What Lightbulb said is one hundred percent true. I finally let out a deep breath and refocused on walking to my first class. Okay, start talking and don't be a cold-hearted person.

I opened the door to my first class, math class. Before I stepped inside, someone caught my eye. Someone I met yesterday. His red hair with yellow tips. His very beautiful eyes and his favorite red hoodie.

Fan Windrick.

He slowly raised his head and then turned to me. He looked at me with that cold stare. I couldn't do anything but freeze in place as he looked at me like he was intimidating me. A few seconds passed, I finally strengthened my courage to greet him.

I smiled a little while waving my hand. He eventually stopped looking at me, quickly he smiled warmly and waved back. I calmed down and continued walking to my seat.

My seat is next to him so I don't feel awkward anymore because I've started interacting with him. He doesn't look as scary as I thought.

"Can we talk?" I asked his permission so we could talk.

"Sure, and you don't need to be formal with me. For me, we are already friends." He responded happily.

"Well, it's up to you. I just want us to talk. Maybe we can get to know each other better?" I spoke.

"I also want to know you more. How about we start from hobby? My hobby is making vlogs. How about you?" He started.

"I really like science. So like practicum, analyzing, testing anything about science is my hobby." I replied with joy.

"Wow, you're so cool! It's my first time meeting a girl like you." He answered in awe.

"Really? Usually, everyone instantly says I'm a nerd you know." I said slightly disappointed.

"Nope. They just aren't as talented as you." He smiled.

What kind of feeling is this? Why is my heart beating so fast? My stomach feels like there are butterflies in it. My face felt very hot now, but I'm not sick. But happy? What is this?

"I think y-your hobby is really cool too, Fan." I said with a shaky voice then smiled at him.

He looked confused but then smiled with his eyes closed. There was a slight blush on his cheeks, is he sick?

"Fan?" I called him out, he hummed in response.

"Are you sick? Your cheeks are red-"

After math class

Fan's POV :
"Oh my gosh, I just got off to a great start but I messed up again." I slapped myself repeatedly.

I kept cursing myself for embarrassing myself. I want everything to go well, but why?! I hope Test Tube doesn't think I'm weird. Just imagine, I accidentally shouted in her face! THAT'S WEIRD!

While constantly blaming myself, I continued on my way to art class. Step by step, I'm still blaming myself for it. I kept praying that she wouldn't stay away from me because of what I did.
