☺︎︎ Chapter Ten

"sorry I took so long, Johnny hogged the fucking shower and kept Yuta and I waiting for our turn." Lucas said approaching the brunet who was waiting for him like he said he would.

Jeno just chuckled at him and patted his bicep, "it's fine." He smiles before linking their arms like he always does with his friends and slightly tugging on Lucas' arm, "now let's go."

The tall basketball player snorts and adjusts his bag on his shoulder before leading him and Jeno behind the school building where Jaemin was going to be at.

It was like time repeated itself once they've arrived at the same spot, Jaemin leaning against the wall, this time scrolling through his phone, before looking up with a deep scowl once his gaze fell on Jeno.

"Hi!" The brunet greeted happily like they've personally known each other for so long.

"What are you doing here, again?" Jaemin sighed deeply and ran his palm over his face in distress as he inserts his phone back in his pocket.

Lucas coughed to get their attention, mainly Jaemin's so the mysterious boy would stop scowling scarily at Jeno whose smile didn't falter.

How fucking weird. Jaemin thought to himself with his eyebrows knitted together. Who the hell keeps smiling like that as if life is perfect?

Without further a do, Lucas nudged Jeno on the side by his elbow and heard the younger squeak in return due to the action. "You tell him." He whispered.

However, it seems that Jaemin himself heard it crystal clear even though Lucas actually whispered properly instead of failing like he would in different occasions.

They all know because that happens a lot usually in the library.

"Tell me what?"

"Jeez, I should practice my whispering skills better."

"I'm asking you guys, tell me what? Answer me," the mysterious boy huffed impatiently with his arms crossed as he fixed his position against the wall.

Pursing his lips, Lucas coughed again scratching his nape waiting for Jeno to fucking say something.

Thank God the younger seemed happy enough to fullfil Jaemin's wishes, even though it came out as rude or whatever.

"You're my soulmate!" He chirped with his smile growing wider even more while catching his lower lip by his teeth to hold back his excitement.

"I'm your what?" Jaemin baffled as his scowl turned into more on a weird look towards the younger. What the fuck did that kid just say?

"Your sense of hearing suddenly subsided, that's funny." Lucas joked as he laughed to himself while Jeno raised a brow at him as Jaemin had gone back to glaring, at Lucas this time.

Seeing the looks he got from the other two boys, he stopped his laughing fit and chuckled awkwardly instead, earning a stronger glare from Jaemin. "Okay, uh- not funny." He squeaked.

The mysterious dark haired boy rolled his eyes before turning back to Jeno who was, not surprised, beaming at him as if he holds the answers to everything in the world.

"Now do repeat what you've previously said to make sure you're not fucking around." He sneered.

"We're soulmates!" Did as told and like the good guy he is towards others, Jeno exclaimed happily.

"Yeah, you're fucking around. Go home, kid." Jaemin scoffed as he took out his phone again while Lucas was just sitting on the ground watching and waiting patiently.

"But we are! Look, this is the soulmate mark you gave me!" Jeno said trying to convince the 100% soulmate of his that they are indeed, each other's fated partner.

Glancing at the brunet who walks up to him with his index finger pointing on his left eye (almost poking himself to be honest) as he made his eyes big, staring up at the elder.

Jaemin tsked in annoyance, "we're not soulmates. That's just a black eye that I gave you back at your friend's shitty party." He remarks.

"Hey! Mark's party wasn't shitty, it was legit!" Lucas said offended looking up from the ground at them with a huff.

Rolling his eyes, Jaemin decided to just ignore the tall basketball player who he considered as his acquaintance that is close to a friend. -Ish. He's starting to regret his decision.

"Yes we are! And that was days or so ago, it should've been almost disappeared by now from what Haechan told me." The brunet pouted.

"Well, tell that Haechan guy to stop giving you false hope and information. That's just a severe black eye." The mysterious boy spat getting irritated. When will this kid leave him alone?

Jeno hummed at his words, "it was pretty painful." He drawls and emphasized the word before shaking his head. "But it really is a soulmate mark, your soulmate mark."

"Look, kid. That thing on your eye is simply a dark mark from the black eye I gave you. It will go away soon, but right now, I want you to go away before I give you another fresh one." Jaemin gritted through his teeth.

Tilting his head as he locked eyes with the angry elder boy, Jeno points out, "your eyes are different." He mumbled still staring back just as intently as Jaemin was to him.

With a small snarl that shook him a bit, Lucas stood up and points at the sun. "It's probably from the light or something, you know? Like what cats do?" He said nonchalantly.

Seemingly distracting the younger with ease, Jeno's face lits up again. "Bongsik does that a lot, she's so cute!" He squealed.

When he turns back around, Jaemin shuts his eyes while biting the inside of his cheek as he was sweating a bit, Jeno suddenly felt hot inside.

"I'm asking you one last time before I do something, and I'm doing this as nicely as I could." Jaemin muttered and opened his eyes again.

"Go home." He said sternly with a look that gave shivers down to Jeno's spine.

The brunet gulp quietly, "okay." He mumbled before sighing in somewhat disappoinment, "see you around, Jaem." He said nonetheless with the nickname that made the elder tsk again.

He turns on the heels of his feet and walks off back to the front of the school and proceeded to go home, like what Jaemin ordered him to do.

Watching Jeno's departure and how his shoulders were now slouched as he walks while kicking the ground lightly, Lucas sighed as well.

"That really was a soulmate mark, and I know you probably already knew that because you're not as stupid as me." He shrugged.

"Shut up." Jaemin retorts making the elder scoff mockingly.

"My dear soulmate, I'm not giving up."
