when the bell rang in fourth period, it told everyone that it was lunch time for their grade. ten was quick to react, closing his maths notebook and stuffing his note papers into his blue maths folder. in fact, each subject had a separate colour for them.

suddenly, someone taps his shoulder and ten turns his head to see johnny. the corners of his lips curl into another heart fluttering smile and ten can't take all this attention johnny was giving him all of a sudden. well, did happen after johnny had kissed him, yet he doesn't bring it up to him.

he whispers his request and suddenly the confident johnny was gone. "want to walk to lunch together?"

"sure," ten breathes, feeling his cheeks heat up again for what felt like the hundredth time. this day was equivalent to a dream he's probably had in the past. someone needs to hurry up and pinch him. he puts his notebook and maths folder in his backpack before zipping it up, standing up as he puts it on his shoulders.

then, side by side, they walk out of the classroom together. ten's heart is beating right fast again and he can barely meet johnny's eyes out of nervousness. ten thinks the walk is going to be spent in silence, but johnny is the one to break the silence.

"do you wanna — uh — uh, exchange phone numbers?" johnny asks quietly.

"exchange p-phone numbers?" ten retorts, in a tone that was very close to a whisper.

"yeah, for the project, obviously," johnny says quickly. "we don't have to since we'll see each other at school, y'know. no big — "

"sure, we can," ten says and he can feel his heart do a backflip as he proceeds to freak out on the inside. holy shit, holy shit, holy shit — !

johnny smiles at that and pulls out his phone, listening to ten tell him his phone number as they continue down the hallway and eventually done the staircase, johnny sending him a simple text that read 'hi', making ten check his phone to see it. he smiles to himself and presents great self-control by not bursting out with a squeal.

when they reach the cafeteria, ten says a quick goodbye to johnny before breaking away from him, immediately spotting his friends at their usual lunch table, with their boyfriends tagging along. yuta had happily attached himself to sicheng's arm while jaehyun had an arm around taeyong.

"oh, there you are, ten!" sicheng says once ten walks over. "i was waiting forever by the media centre for you. where were you?"

"iwalkedwithjohnnyinstead," ten says. sicheng blinks in confusion as he tilts his head to the side.

"wait, what?"

"i walked with johnny instead," ten said, much more slower than before, his cheeks still red. "i should've texted you — "

"and take away quality time with your little boyfriend?" taeyong jokes.

"johnny's not exactly little," jaehyun remarks and taeyong snickers.
