Ice Cream | NoMin

Chapter 2

•••

When Jaemin enters the room, the lesson has not yet begun. Everyone fell silent as they saw Jaemin walk to his seat in the center of the row, not looking at any of them because he doesn't care. He's used to it, and he knows that most of the students were scared of him because of how strict he was with punishments.

He seemed to have finished patrolling and arrived fast. He's quick today, perhaps because he knew they'd be taking a quiz today.

On the other hand, there's Jeno. He couldn't help not stare at Jaemin even though he already stated that he didn't want to see him again.

But here he is, he just couldn't stop looking at him for some reason.

Jeno's eyes widened as Jaemin returned his gaze, so he hurriedly avoided his gaze and pretended to read from his book.

Damn, he can feel his cheeks burning up once again.

That's embarrassing, why does he keep making himself embarrassed to Jaemin?

Seems like Giselle and Renjun saw it that's why they giggled.

"Are you whipped Jeno-yah?" Renjun chuckled.

"Cut it out you two." Jeno hushed them.

"Jen, I couldn't study last night. This is my first and last favor for you." Donghyuck then smiled sweetly at the older.

"We can't."

"Please? I don't want to pass my paper without answers."

"It's your fault."

"We won't get caught, okay? You will not get into trouble I swear." Donghyuck then squeezed Jeno on his shoulder. He's desperate because he forgot to study last night and his only hope is Jeno as of now.

Giselle has bad penmanship and he couldn't read her answers properly, Renjun and Karina were far from him and Jeno is just his seatmate. So Jeno is the only one who can help him right now.

"You have to make sure. I don't want to get into trouble and you know why."

"Because of your grades?" Giselle asked.

"No, because of Jaemin."

Later, their teacher arrived holding papers that were possibly the questions for their quiz today.

Donghyuck smiled at Jeno and pinched the older cheeks playfully before taking a piece of paper and started writing his name.

They started answering their quiz and Donghyuck was patiently waiting for Jeno to finish answering his paper. Jeno is a little fast answering because he studied of course. It's easy as pie.

Donghyuck keeps glancing back and forth between their teacher and Jeno before quietly touching him on the elbow.

"Jeno-yah." Whispering, Donghyuck called Jeno but the latter didn't look back. He just made sure that Donghyuck could see his paper properly so he could copy his answers.

He will be doomed if their teacher caught them, especially Jeno because he's their top one and this is completely embarrassing for his reputation.

He's aware that this is wrong. Very, very wrong. Their school doesn't tolerate cheating and they're very strict when it comes to it. But he couldn't say no to Donghyuck, he seems so sure that they won't get caught but seriously, Jeno is getting nervous.

Donghyuck was busy copying Jeno's answer and he didn't realize that their teacher was behind already and silently watching them. She folded her arms and patted Donghyuck on the shoulder afterwards.
