Chapter 17

"So you'll do some volunteering for the damages?" Soobin asked.

"Yeah," I nodded, "How else could I repay?"

"Your life," he smiled.

His words made a chill go down my spine, "You're joking, right?"

"No," he said, "That'd be quite the repayment, don't you think?"

"Uh," I awkwardly took the broom, "S-Sure."

The whole student council had seen me blow up the side of the hill a few weeks ago. However after the fight at the beach, there was a decision: Yeonjun got his ring back and I had to take time after school cleaning. It was strange it took this long on a decision.

The hall was silent other than the sound of the broom I was using. My hands gripped tightly on the end of the stick. I felt sort of awkward, but tried to brush it off. I looked over at Soobin who was watching me. He waved for spite. 

I decided to think about something while sweeping. It'd make the time go by faster for sure. Spells? No, I'd accidentally do something again. Parents? No, I'd probably feel sad. That night after everyone was fallen? That made my heart warm.

-

I held the towel around me tightly while rocking. My choices were regrettable as always. Not even the fire had hardly helped. It was only warming the front of me and if I turned, the other side would immediately go colder. A small shivery sigh escaped my lips.

Beomgyu scooted closer to me and wrapped an arm around me. I suddenly felt my face go red and my body more stiff. Was he trying to warm me up? It for sure made my cheeks heat up. I got pulled closer to him. My head was close to his chest.

Once he let out a long breathy sigh, I could heart his heart beating. It sounded a little bit faster than the average persons. However, I didn't know if it affected him differently since he was a wizard like me. It was calming to hear though; him being alive.

"Why are you so cold?" he asked, "The water isn't ever cold."

"Wet clothes become cold," I said, "I don't like the cold."

"What if it snows?" he questioned.

"The snow is pretty," I chuckled, "It's temperature isn't."

"When it snows," he began, "I'll be waiting to hang. We can slide down the hill."

I smiled, "Okay."

-

A smile crept across my lips. Would he really be waiting for me the first time it snows? If so, that'd be the sweetest thing ever. I looked outside the window. It was sunny as ever. I just wondered whenever it'd snow. It was November after all.

"Yinjae," Soobin whispered in my ear, "What are you thinking of?"

I froze, "Um."

"Beomgyu?" he chuckled.

"What?" I whipped around.

"I'm only teasing," he said, "You didn't see him? He was standing at the top of the field."

"He was?" I turned and looked.

"So you were looking at him," he smiled, "but didn't see him?"

"No," I shook my head, "Not at all."

"Oh," Soobin sucked in his lips, "Well-"

Suddenly that familiar white noise sparked through the air. It was the one we both recognized quickly. Our heads turned to Beomgyu who had just teleported in. He looked at us both with a blank stare. I felt my face go red, but for what?
