SINFULLY INLOVE. chenji

13

the two boys are walking on the sidewalk with their hands intertwined together, they're on their way to the school. 

after the incident last night, nothing really happened. but the moment jisung woke up, he noticed that chenle is silent and the shorter male didn't dare to speak. he would only reply a word or nod if jisung asked him something.

the younger wanted to ask chenle a question but he doesn't want the older to get mad at him. maybe chenle is not ready for this. but isn't he the one who asked to be kissed? 

"chenle, are you okay?" jisung asked, chenle can feel how the way jisung's grip on his hand tightened. he stopped walking making the other male stop too, "of course, i am. why did you ask?" he looked up at the younger. the taller male bit his lower lip after speaking, "i just noticed that you're quiet since this morning. is everything okay?" 

chenle sighed, he continued walking without answering jisung's question.

"chenle?"

"i'm okay jisung. nothing to worry about." he replied coldly. 

the younger looked at him while pouting, "are you sure?" he asked. chenle let out a silent sigh, he nodded his head, hoping that jisung will stop asking some questions. 

"hey—"

"oh look, we're already here." chenle said. jisung looked up as he let out a sigh, he didn't even notice that they were already standing at the school gates. welcome back to hell— i mean, school. he hates school so much, that he preferred staying in his bed and staring at his ceiling for an hour and doing nothing. and one thing for sure, he hates everything about school.

"oh, right.. so—" 

he didn't get to finish what he was about to say, he stopped talking when he saw a group of four boys approaching them. the four boys stopped in front of them, and one of the boys wrapped their arm around chenle's shoulder, "hey, chenle!" 

oh wow, it's chenle's friends. jisung glared at them, he closed his fist real tight while gritting his teeth. 

"let's go?" the boy asked, chenle nodded, and he tried to smile widely. "yeah, we should go now, we'll be late," he said. they were about to walk away which made the younger confused, is he really going to leave without saying anything? "hey! where are you going?" jisung said loudly. 

the boys looked at him, including chenle. but it's weird because the older is giving him a disgusted look, "chenle, where are you—"

"who are you? i don't know you." 

said chenle, before walking away, completely ignoring him.

jisung can hear the group of boys laughing and mocking him. what does chenle mean by that? is he okay? why is he like that? it's like he's ignoring jisung. the young male can't help but feel sad. he really left without saying anything. or maybe he's pretending or something—

"you will be late. what are you doing here?" jisung flinched when heard someone speak, he turned around just to see a teacher raising an eyebrow at him. "what are you still doing here?" the lady asked, the young male gulped, "i-i'm sorry." he bowed before walking away from that scary teacher.

jisung looked blankly at his book. he was about to read but he can't help but think about what happened earlier. he left a message to chenle but he was left on read, he was planning to meet the older at their lunch, but he doesn't know where chenle is and he's not replying to the younger's texts.
