Sunoo's POV

I thought I heard something Jungwon muttered "Park~ you're so cool~"

"Who are you talking about Jungwon?"

"Nobody! What are you talking about? Come on, let's go or we'll be late." Jungwon rushed ahead. He must have a crush on Park Sunghoon...

After that announcement (basically a threat), no one had dared to cross the three. My way to my class was finally normal. Everyone went back to minding their own business. I had some free time before lunchtime came so I decided to hit the library.

I was more or less, done with the beginning of the story. I was at the part where the female lead rejected the male lead. The male lead then does all kinds of things to get her attention. Playing hard to get. "Why did the female lead reject the male lead? Seemed like an interesting guy to me." I wondered.

"Hey Sunoo." Someone called my name, getting my attention.

He didn't call me a cutie

....

Sunghoon's POV

As we made our light warning, I was looking to see if Sunoo was listening.

"Let's go." Heeseung said, signaling it's time to go to our classes. Fortunately, I had a light schedule for today so I spent the time looking for Sunoo. I roamed the campus grounds, cafeteria, and his classroom. No one was in their classroom. They must have also been dismissed at this time. Lastly, I checked the library, his favorite spot.

I saw him as I entered, reading the book. He looked ethereal, the sun shining down on him. He was also wearing glasses, which accentuated his eyes. What a cutie.

It was not the time to be admiring him. I went over to properly apologize, going to explain that I made sure no one was going to gossip about him ever again. He didn't seem to notice me standing in front of him. I called out his name, trying to get his attention.

"Hey Sunoo."

....

Sunoo's POV

He's here again. "What do you want?" I asked him. He seemed nervous, fiddling with his thumbs before finally speaking.

"I just want to properly apologize to you. My intention was to not harm you. I already warned those who would try to do it again. Please forgive me." He apologized. With freaking puppy eyes, how could I stay mad at this puppy?

I exhaled as I begin to speak "Apology accepted. However, if you're going to use me as your toy or whatever, do it with someone else. I have no time for that."

He denied. "I'm not toying with you! I just didn't know how to get close to you."

"Why would you want to get close to me?" I curiously asked, wary of what his intentions are.

"It's because you picked out that book and started reading it." He replied. What does this book have to do with him? I asked him, "What is your relationship with this book?"

He looked to be in distress, hesitating to answer. "Nevermind, forget I asked." I said, not wanting to pry. He seemed relieved. I couldn't stand him looking so gloomy. In the end, I gave in...

"Since you did fix the problem about those gossip girls, I guess I'll stop pushing you away," I answered. He cheered quietly and smiled. I swear that smile is going to be the end of me.

I added "There is a condition, you have to stop flirting with me. Oh, and for us to be close. You have to read with me, now."

Two can play at that game.
