CH02 - 'Forbidden Jutsu'

the other two looked at each other and smiled devilishly. then youngjae got ready for the forbidden jutsu. sunwoo looked at him as he took and a deep breathe and...

"YOUNGHOON!!!"

sunwoo's heart dropped as the three males outside turned to look at them.

"what on earth are you doing?!" sunwoo berated his shorter friend who just laughed at him.

hyunjoon also took a deep breath as it is his turn to scream.

"YOUNGHOON! OUR FRIEND HAS SOMETHING TO SAY!!!" sunwoo turned to the other wide-eyed. he can't believe it! his friends really did it!

the two bestfriends started to pull and push sunwoo again towards the exit, just like earlier. but this time their pace is faster since there's no resistance. and at last, they made it outside the building.

he saw younghoon running up to them. his heart dropped once again.

once they are in front of each other, the two other boys ran away laughing.

"have fun!" they both shouted giggling. sunwoo glared at them. he turned back to the man in front of him who just stood there waiting for a word.

'oh my god, this is happening.'

'this is happening. this is happening. this is happening.'

younghoon was standing in the empty  hallway listening to his dork friends who're talking about the most random shit they can think of. you know, if younghoon doesn't love these two crackheads, he would've left them then and there. but no he's stuck with these two hunks of meat fooling around. but it's okay for him, since they are really fun to be with.

younghoon is getting really bored since he's not listening to the conversation. it's because their topic is something he doesn't like;

girls...

yes, he doesn't like girls. because he's gay. yes, gay. homosexual. queer. not straight. he likes guys. if juyeon and jaehyun aren't his bestfriends, he would've slept with them a long time ago. and (obviously) he doesn't like girls at all, which is pretty ironic since the girls in his school literally beg him to give him head.

anyways.

he heard some noise farther inside the campus. of course the other two didn't notice it because they're deep into their conversation.

he looked and saw a boy that looks younger (probably his junior?) and two other boys forcing that first boy to go to his direction. he heard a little bit of their exchange of words.

"just do it!"

"no! never!"

'it seems like some bullying is happening.'

"come on! you promised us you would do it! this shit is affecting your life! just do it to end all of this!" the words are faint but he could hear clearly what they're saying.

'oh, they're probably just playing around.'

suddenly, jaehyun looked at his watch and back at us.

"let's go now, you fools. the burger shop is closing early today, about 3:00 pm. pops said he's going out to his daughter's wedding." jaehyun blurted out.

"really? it's about 2:30 now, let's go!" juyeon cheerfully exxlaimed. and at that they exited the building.

younghoon wondered what was happening back there. he was silent once again and the duo started talking non-sense again, this time it's about where aladdin's nipples are.

he decided not to look back, because he doesn't want to get into their business. then a loud noise caught their attention.

"YOUNGHOON!!!" his name was shouted by one of the boys earlier. they looked back to the place again.

"what was that?" juyeon asked.

"are those more members of your harem, mr breadman?" jaehyun nudged the older teasing him. juyeon cocked a brow.

"harem? what is that?" the innocent juyeon asked.

"harem is a group of girls or sometimes guys that like you and tries to pursue you." jaehyun explained.

"oh, so that's what it means. ah." juyeon said as he nodded his head.

younghoon just chuckled and shook his head.

"oh, shut up."

"YOUNGHOON! OUR FRIEND HAS SOMETHING TO SAY!!!" the other boy screamed. the three tall guys just chuckled at them.

"yah, what you gonna do? looks like that boy *points at sunwoo* likes you." jaehyun teased him again.

"i'll give him a try. he's kinda cute." younghoon replied. the two boys were a little shocked by him. because usually he turns them down easily.

"oh, i forgot you're gay." jaehyun snorted at juyeon's statement.

"okay, we'll excuse you this time! juyeon and i will go by ourselves." the two boys then started to walk away.

"we're going on a date?" juyeon asked.

"let's just call it that. i don't want to explain things anymore." those are the last words he heard from them before they disappeared. younghoon chuckled once again.

"dorks."

younghoon jogged back at the exit of the building. now facing the boy with a red face. the two other boys ran away as soon as he arrived.

"have fun!" one boy said. then both ran giggling.

younghoon would be lying if he said the boy in front of him ain't cute. he smiled again.

"what would you like to say, uh....?"

'he smiled at me. again. oh god, i can't take this."

younghoon is in front of him and they are alone. sunwoo feels like he's gonna explode.

"what would you like to say, uh....?"

'he asked me a question. what do i do?'

'answer! dumbass!' even himself is beating him up to it.

"u-uh, s-sunwoo. my name's sunwoo." he said scratching the back of his head while smiling awkwardly.

"okay sunwoo, what do you want to say to me?"

'should i do it? i should do it. he ditched his friend to talk to me. okay i'll try not to be too awkward.'

"i-"

"you like me?"

"uh, n-no."

'bitch! you ruined it!' younghoon cocked a brow.

"no? then what is it?" he looked kind of disappointed? sunwoo is confused.

"no! i mean yes!" now both of them are confused.

'fuck it!'

"i-i mean, i like you. i really really like you! you might not remember it, but more than two years ago you bumped into me and knocked of my stuff! but i swear i thought u saw a god! you're very handsome and i had a big crush on you." younghoon smirked.

"i also your kindness towards people!you didn't bully students, helped them, the teachers and everyone. you're not like other guys, younghoon! and that's what i like about you! please acknowledge my feelings!" sunwoo looked down after he made his rant. he can't believe it. he did it. now the rejecti-.

"come with me." younghoon smirked again. but not and evil one. more like he's happy and just want to keep cool.

"h-huh?" sunwoo was confused. he thought he'll get rejected and get bullied by his crush or his friends.

"say no more." younghoon took his hand and ran to a destination with sunwoo as his cargo.
