The best thing about being fifteen is that the biggest of your worries is the homework you have forgotten to do. The one that's due the next period.
Or the test that you've forgotten to study for. More worrisome when you study for the wrong subject and end up pacing back and forth in the washroom with your hair fisted in your panicked hands while your best friend tries to brush you up on a few topics for the actual test.
Or getting into trouble at home because of getting into trouble at school, just because your parents refuse to listen to your point of view (even though you were wrong and you know it).
Or in Jeon Jeongguk's case, being in love with his senior and having absolutely no guts to confess.
Well, that wasn't a 'worry' for him.
He was totally fine just staring at his crush during their lunch breaks and blushing whenever they crossed paths (even though they never locked eyes). He was completely fine just doodling 'JJK ❤ KTH' on every single 'scribble-able' place he found.
He was totally fine just screaming his lungs out for his crush's basketball team to win whenever they had a match to play. He never dared to scream his crush's name, though. He would disintegrate into nothingness if his crush ever happened to notice him.
What he wasn't fine with, however, was the fact that his friends just wouldn't shut up about it.
That was his biggest worry.
That they wouldn't stop bugging him about confessing to his senior.
But how could he?
How could he when the only interaction he had ever had with him was when he was super hungry in his freshman year and his crush and his friends, who were sophomores back then, just wouldn't move from the entrance of their canteen?
How could he when all he had said was 'excuse me,' and had gotten an irritated glance from his crush in return before they took their loud discussion elsewhere?
How could he when he was sure his crush didn't even know he existed?
How could he when he knew he would only get scoffed at, or worse be brutally ignored if he ever confessed to him?
His worries were valid. But so were his friends' claims of Jeongguk never succeeding in his life if he was being so cowardly about taking a step forward in such a small thing in his life.
But was it really just a 'small thing in life'?
Ugh, if only Jeongguk could just strangle his friends and throw them away instead.

Guess who's back, lol.
Hello, guys :))
Welcome to my sixteenth book :D
So, as I said, I'm suuuuuuper busy this year, but I was experiencing withdrawal from not writing, lol. So here, hehe. I'm gonna be slow as hell, maybe, or fast as a jet, I don't know, but be prepared for anything and everything, I guess.
This time, I'm going with a normal, fluffy and hopefully funny school love story, so for all the people who had their hearts broken with Beyond Saturation, I'm hoping this can stitch it up a little.
With that being said, I hope you enjoy this story and maybe even relate to it at some or the other point of it. Or maybe even miss your school days. I surely do and would do anything to go back to those golden days of my life. Not that my present days aren't golden, because I would never trade these days for anything better either, but still, school days are the ultimate. You can fight me on it.
Anyways, see you in the next chappy, whenever that is :D
