chapter 5| rooftop

I found myself being dragged down a corridor, I had never seen before, by some boy I had never even met before.

I think Jake and Jay were as confused as me, since for the first time, they weren't chasing after somebody who had just fought back.

I looked behind me again, just to double check they weren't trailing along, but no. nothing.

After running a while, we came to a flite of stairs that led upwards. I thought we were on the top floor?

I was shook out of my thoughts though when I stumbled over a few steps.

Changbin must have noticed because he stopped to and see if I was ok. after giving him a nod of reassurance, he continued to drag me up the staircase.

Something made me trust him. I dont know what, or how, but i just knew i could trust him.

my legs began to hurt after running a set of stairs and at least half of the school. But we made it to a door.

He pushed it open and i then understood where we were. The school rooftop.

I never knew you could actually get up here...

He walked out into the fresh air, me following behind him. I took in a deep breath.

I let go of his hand (that i had forgot i was still holding) and walked around.

There was a greenhouse.

I had spotted a green house out in the far corner. It was big too.

I turned around to show changbin, my smile beaming, and eyes wide. But he was already looking at me, wait, no, he must have been looking at the greenhouse too. Why would he be looking at me?

He walked forward, heading to the shelter.

I was amazed. yes, it was old and dusty, and the plants in there had more or less rotted, but it was beautiful.

That was when i decided i was going to give the greenhouse a 'glow up'.

When the boy got to the entrance, he turned around and gave me a small smile, while flicking his head sideways, signalling me to go with him.

Excited, i skipped to him. He gave a stiff chuckle, reminding me How silent he was.  He didnt even make a sound while laughing?

Is he... mute?

We walked inside the house, and the heat hit me. It was so humid and stuffy, i was sweaty with in seconds.

I reached for my backpack, but instantly pulled away when i remembered Changbin was still holding it. i then realised, how nervous i was to talk to him. Why?

I didnt want to be awkward, so i ignored the heat, and how dehydrated i was.

changbin must have noticed because as i was exploring the dead flowers, he tapped me on the shoulder. When i turned, he was carrying a water bottle, not mine.

"That- thats not my water" i said, trying to be polite. instant regret washed over me because of my stutter.

i heard a whisper fall from his mouth,"No, its mine,". His voice was raspy, like he had just woken up.

To be honest... it was kinda hot...

But ANYWAY.

I debated whether to take it but he held it out even more so i did, not wanting to be rude.

Then he turned around and began to look too.

Anxious, i undone the lid and took a sip of his water.

The bottle was already opened... meaning he had drank it too. Oh god.

i dropped the bottle. hIS LIPS TOUCHED THAT!!!

Panicking, i crouched down. I picked up the bottle before anymore water spilled out of it but half of it had already gone.

"Im sorry, im so so so sorry, i just dropped it- i-" i stumbled on my words like an idiot.

By now, he had already rushed over, crouching down too. He held my elbows and guided me up so i wasn't on the floor anymore.

I stared at his face, taking in his features as we rose. He was... cute, but hot... and... precious at the same time?
It was so confusing, i had never thought that about any boy, ever.

By now we were both standing up. He looked at my eyes, and caught me staring. I quickly looked away, too embarrassed to make eye contact.

Until i felt soft fingers touch my chin, and slowly lift my head up. I looked into his delicate eyes, wondering how i could feel so safe with someone i had just met. It felt like i had known him my whole life.

"Are you ok?" He whispered.

I was startled at his sudden question, stepping back from his hold.

"Hm?" I replied fidgeting with my hands. I averted my gaze away from him.

"What happened back there, are you ok?" He explained.

"Oh- err Ye, im fine, just a little startled. What did i even do?"

"They've done it to basically everyone, even i went through it. dont worry, they will move onto someone else soon"

"Are you ok tho? You just pushed the school jerk down? Surely u need a trophy for smth like that"

He giggled.

But i was being serious.

Surely some award should be given.

"Dont think abt it"

Oh, i do mr.

"I was just helping"

Saving, you mean.

"well- oh shit!" I think that was the first time i didnt have to listen close to  hear what he was saying.

"What!?" I asked in panic.

"We missed 4th period"

"Hmm, that means its lunch now right?"

"Ye, but, could you do me a favour?"

"Oh my god, after what you just done for me, of course,"

"when we go in the hall do you mind if i go in first? i just...ill probably get picked on if we're seen together. Not in a bad way! It's just that... rumours spread and i have stuff being said about me already. I'm sure you've heard,"

"Oh...no thats ok" i wasnt hurt by his words, i get it. But i was worried for his instead.

"Thanks" he smiled and nodded at me.

Just like we planned, we walked down to the cafeteria and went in for lunch. he went in first, while I finally went to the toilet.

When i did walk into the hall, i spotted Kiera straight away but it wasnt just kiera at the table. Someone was sitting with her. It definitely wasn't her boyfriend...
