"And for the record, the same goes for me, I..I-'ve fallen for you, Su Hyeok."

Cheong San takes a deep breath and collects his thoughts for a while. He has a lot of things he wants to say about Su Hyeok, about how much he admires him and how Su Hyeok has altered his view about love. He wants to show his enthusiasm to Su Hyeok for his friendship and partner. His heart was bursting at the seams with love for this moron.

Somehow he just ends up blurting Saranghae to Su Hyeok, repeating the words he had already said earlier, such simple words that breaks the barricade of 'just friends', his heart was already fluttering in joy as he finally comes face to face with his one true love. There were butterflies in that chest of Su Hyeok, beating a hundred miles per second. 

"Can you please say that again?"  Su Hyeok ask, with a tone of urgency, a desperate request filling this void in his heart, these two were like puzzle pieces finding it's way to complete each other, exchanging 'I love you's' was enough to make Su Hyeok feel whole and brand new.

The shorter boy gives him a quick glance before averting his gaze. His face flushes even more, making him feel like the main character in a shoujo manga.

Cheong San stares straight at Su Hyeok and repeats it in the most soft and definite voice he can conjure, consolidating his resolve and the last ounces of courage he has.

"Yah, it's so weird how he smiles in his sleep"

Thud

Su Hyeok stumbles down the bench as he hears this voice, a pain in the ass, he wakes up to find Joon-Yeong, Wu-Jin, Hyo-Rung, and the rest of the squad circling him as if he were a tribute or an offering...How terrifying.

What in the world?

Dae-Su..

Dae-Su was in front of him the whole time?! It was never Cheong San who was squatting to the bench's height and mumbling to Su Hyeok, The confession wasn't real, the kiss in the rain wasn't real, Him finally embracing Cheong San was all but a dream.

He touches his forehead, examining the texture as if Cheong San really had kissed his forehead.

No luck, it must be the rain or the ghost of wind brushing that part of his head. 

As he finally keeps his composure, he shakes his head in disbelief, asking his groupmates who was around him,

"Why are you all here??"

I-Sak clutches to the girl's arm to stop whatever awful thing might happen, while On-Jo only hits his back.

When On-Jo gets mad, there's no salvation that awaits.

"Oi-oi! On-Jo~ Just keep calm! nothing goes to smacking a person's back...you know.."

"You left school for a group project and we see you sleeping here as if we don't have a biology project due on friday! " She states angrily, "The atmosphere between them was so tense, not one of them opted to say a single word."

"Couldn't be helped. I saw a chicken fly it's way out of the school" 

"-You bastard-" And before she can even make her debut as the new Ronda Rousey, giggles were heard from no other than,

Wu-Jin and Hyo-Rung  sharing laughters on Su Hyeok's response. 

On-Jo darts back a death glare for the two, and their heads were bowed from the second-hand embarrassment. 

"Ah, you know, never mind. Let's just go back, and this time no one goes out or escapes this project. 50% of our grades depend on this. I'll be hoping the best for us."  She says coldly to all of them.
