"Don't be stubborn,you can't even stand up properly.I'll go first."

—————————

She came closer,a worried look on her face.

"I can go myself.You should go home."

I walked inside the block,towards the nurse office,her following me.

"I said-"

"How the tables have turned."

I quirked my eyebrow.She must be talking about the day where I help her carry the supplies,even though she kept insisting she doesn't need my help.

"It's too heavy to carry everything by yourself"
I recalled the words she mumbled.

"Y-You heard that?"

"Loud and clear."

She looked away.I chuckled.



Upon arriving at the nurse office,we found out the nurse had already left.

Y/n POV

The nurse wasn't around so I guess I'll be the one treating him.

"Sit there."Glancing at his weak body I instructed him.The injured boy,obediently sat on the bed.

I went to get some ointments along with cotton.Sitting next to him,I examined his injuries.His lips were bleeding and he had bruises on his jaw and arm.

"Why didn't you defend yourself?"

"His Uncle is the principal.If I fight back they will manipulate and fabricate any footage to make it seem like i am the bully and Hwiyoung is the victim."

Sighing,I couldn't help but feel concerned and worried.

"This might sting"

I gave him a heads up.He looked away.Ever so gently,I dabbed the cotton on the side of his lips,trying to first clean up the blood.

"Aishhhhh"He pulled away,shouting.Going for another dab,he flinched and moved his head,avoiding it.

"You got to stay still,stop moving so much."

He glared at me like a little child who got his candy taken away.Turning his head to a side,his hands grabbed onto the sheets of the bed.

I tried my best to be gentle,cleaning off the blood.He hissed multiple times,gripping the crumpled sheets of the bed.

"I'll apply the cream now,"I said,disposing the dirty cotton away.I moved infront of him.Applying the cream onto my finger first,I leaned closer to him.

My fingers brushed the side of his lips,applying the cream onto his wound.His lips quivered slightly,catching my attention.

Heart-shaped,plumped the right size,so soft.

I diverted my eyes back onto the wound and that's when I realised how close I was to him.He too was not moving.Slowly shifting my gaze up to his eyes,I saw him doing the same.

Was he staring at my lips too?

Our faces only inches apart,but no one pulled away.

Shoulders rise and fall after every breathe,soft sounds like the breeze.Sunlight that filtered through the windows shone onto us,glittering his eyes,shining like the stars.One hand hanging in front of me,while my other rested on the side,right beside him.Both of us mesmerised,as if time froze.

Thump     Thump    Thump

Heartbeats picking up the pace,racing to match the other.

What is this feeling?















"Jake!"

The door swung outwards,revealing Heeseung and Sunghoon who had settled the earlier situation.

I withdrew myself immediately,tripping my self over my fumbling legs.Luckily,Sunghoon had caught me before I could fall.Embarrassed,I nod my head to thank him.

Hoping they did not see anything I fixed my posture.
Little did I know that the two had caught a glimpse of the scene earlier,but just wanted to keep their image in front of me.

"I guess I'll leave"

I excused myself.

"Y/n"

Heeseung stopped me.

"Can I talk to you for a moment?outside."

I couldn't reject him so I hesitantly went out.Heeseung and I don't have the best relationship cause he seems to have something against me,hence I felt a bit nervous talking to him.

"Thank you and sorry about before."

He apologised,referring to how he would act towards me.

Am I hearing things?

"No problem."

Fiddling his fingers,he was feeling awkward.

"I'll go home now."

"Y-Yeah"

——————————

Heeseung returned inside after the girl left.Sunghoon was asking Jake multiple questions not just about Hwiyoung but about y/n as well.

"What's gonna happen to that jerk?"Jake asked Heeseung,cutting off Sunghoon

"We got him expelled,thanks to that video."

"Hey Jake you haven't answered my question about y/n."Sunghoon said.

Rose tinted lips,glossy shine,so perfect

"Earth to Jake"He waved his hands.

Jake blinked a few times,coming back to the present.

"Huh?Question?"

"Tsk,tsk."
