[A/N: In starting to get so busy with school, I rarely use my phone. I only use it at night so I'll have a time to write around 10:00 pm to 4:00 am. Sorry for not updating everyday. I promise I'll make it up to you guys when I have time. I love you all.]

Still Wednesday. 4:30 pm.

"Jake.. hey.." Jake opened his eyes and sat up properly. He immediately stood up when he saw Engene awake.

"Engene!" Jake almost screamed. He pulled Engene closer and gave him a tight hug.

"You worried me to death" Jake whispered. Engene instantly smiled and wrapped his arms around Jake as well, returning the hug.

"I'm good now, don't worry"

"You're still not good, look at this scratch on the side of your lip" Jake moved away and held Engene's face and caressed his cheeks. Jake's finger touched the side of Engene's face where the scratch is, making him flinch.

"Sorry, did it hurt so much?"

"Nah, it's good. Don't worry too much, Jake"

"How can I not worry about you? You fainted earlier, Engene"

"Yes, I know. I remembered what happened. It's just that, I'm fine already. Stop worrying, Jakey" Engene said and held Jake's right hand.

"Answer me honestly, Engene. Why are they bullying you?" Jake asked and moved away

"Maybe because I'm ugly?"

"Nope, I won't believe that. You're way too handsome to be bullied, Engene. Tell me the truth"

"I- *sigh* b-because of y-you. They told me to stay away from you but I just can't. I love you, Jake. I won't stay away just because they told me to. I don't care if they're bullying me, all I want is to be with you" Engene truthfully answered. His answer made Jake flustered.

"You're blushing" Engene pointed out, giggling a bit.

"I- aish, this boy" Jake whispered.

"Jake" Engene called.

"Hmm?" Jake hummed in response.

"I love you"

"I like you"

"Wha- Eh?!"

"I'm serious, Engene. I like you"

"Yeah right, stop teasing me"

"Engeeeene I'm serious" Jake whined. Kinda offended because Engene is not believing him. Engene noticed Jake's pouty lips, a sign that he's sad.

"Come here" Engene suddenly said. Jake hesitated but came closer and sat beside Engene, facing him.

"Don't force yourself to like me, Jake. I'm willing to wait for you"

"But I'm serious. Why won't you believe me?"

"Are you really serious?"

"I am!" Jake pouted. Engene smiled and pulled Jake closer, leaning to kiss his cheek. Jake blushed even more because of the younger's action.

"Then I'll wait for you to love me" Engene whispered.

"I'm so close there, Engene. Please wait for me"

"No need to tell me, I will wait for you no matter what" Engene said.

Jake is the first one who made a move. He scoot closer to Engene and hugged him, he also burried his face to Engene's neck.

"Thank you" Jake whispered. Engene felt butterflies in his stomach when he felt Jake's hot breath on his neck.

Engene didn't answer. He just hugged Jake tightly. Both of them are quiet, they're enjoying the warmth of each other and enjoying their moment as well.
