"Mmh!" i almost fell back on the floor when someone tugged on my skirt from behind. "WHAT THE-!" i instantly shut my mouth up seeing the person behind me. "C-Can't you see that I'm carrying sheets of paper?"
"This is the husky i was talking about. Alright, see you guys" saying those words, He Tian hung his arm around my shoulder and started walking pulling me with him.
"H-Hey, wait! What do you think you're doing?" i whispered out loud to him while trying to move myself from his grip.
"Hey~ don't move so much. Or else the papers are gonna fall" he whispered the words close to my ear and i could feel his lips brushing my ear. Even though i was blushing hard, i didn't face him. I just kept on looking forward.
"Let's play ball afterschool~" his lips brushed again.
"No"
"Ah~ Why don't you want to come?" this time he rested his head against mine. My heart was beating uncontrollably fast but i had put on an unbothered face. If he continued to push me anymore who knows what would have happened to me.
"I-I have studies to do. Student council stuffs. And stop with whatever you're doing. If any of your admirers see me, I'm gonna get beaten" i replied coolly.
"Haha, you make me laugh Alix. But that's not so important. You study a lot~ work a lot ~ sometimes you need to relieve your stress, like by being with me"
"Mmph!" i gasped feeling his fingers go down my back.
"Hey! Stop it! We are at school!" i whispered while blushing loudly.
"Huh~ so we can do it when we're not at school?" he smirked. THAT DEVILISH SMIRK! I accidentally missed my footing on the stairs. Shit.
"ARHG!" i shut my eyes and braced myself for impact. But it didn't came. Instead, i felt myself hit against something, something with a mixture of softness and hardness. Opening my eyes, i gasped out loud. "Oh My God! Are you alright?!" i hurriedly checked He Tian's face and body to look for any bruises. The papers were scattered all around us.
"I'm fine.. what about you? Are you okay..?" his voice came out hoarse and he tried to stand up.
"Of course dummy, i am! But i wouldn't have been if you weren't here. But this all happened because you did stuffs like that! So at the end of it all, it's you and you"
"Woah, you literally brought me to the nurse station within just a minute. What magic!" he looked around in shock. I released his hand and then pushed him towards the nurse's office.
"Get well soon" i muttered the words looking at him before turning around to go towards the scattered papers that were on the group. God, my work only seems to increase when he's there i sighed before starting to pick it up. A group of boys passed me before crouching down to pick up the papers with me. "Oh, I'm so sorry to make you do this. But thank you, really" i smiled at the red haired guy.
"It's no big deal. Be careful from next time onwards" he said handing me the papers along with his friends before walking away. What a gentleman.
After school
"Alix! Zhan Zheng Xi! RUN!" shouted Yi seconds before falling on top of us.
"What the-"
"Bastard, what are you doing?!" Xi said trying to move away from him.
"He Tian said he wants to come to the movies with us! Run! We can't let him catch us!" Yi then pulled us both by the wrists.
"Movies? What are you talking about?" i stopped walking.
"Who said we were going to the movies with you?!" Xi whacked Yi on the head causing him to crouch down.
"Today, during school. Are we really not going?" Yi pouted.
"Eh? Was i even in the conversation?" i tilted my head in confusion. Xi just shook his head while Yi nodded his excitedly.
"No, we aren't" Xi crossed his arm.
"You are pouting too much" i said to Yi.
"That's because you guys are forgetting something" he murmured.
"We didn't" Xi replied. "What today is. Come with me" he said before starting to walk. Now's not my place to intervene. I should let these lovebirds alone for a while at least todays. It's his birthday after all. We can have the grand finale later anytime.
"Where are we going?" Yi asked me.
"Ummm, you know what? I have forgotten a textbook in the class. You guys go, I'll catch up with you later" i said and then patted Yi's back.
"But that's not what i-" Xi stopped talking when his eyes met mine. I gave him a cheerful smile.
"Enjoy, boys!" i said before turning around to walk towards the school. Xi, Yi, i hope you two enjoy today especially Yi. I hope you have a great time. I'm rooting for you two. After i noticed the guys leaving, i went to the opposite road to go back home before going to my part-time job.
