At their station, Beomgyu and Yeonjun had gotten off. But the good mood seemed to have missed the bus ride in general, because before it had been Jaeyi and her statement that had saddened the black-haired nerd, but after meeting Jinhyung it had gotten worse. He had both hands in his pants pockets and used his long legs to quickly get to the planetarium.

As he did so, Yeonjun just followed him silently, trying to keep up with the fast pace, but the mood alone weighed him down. He didn't know what else to say, and yet he wanted to use the planetarium as a date.

As their first date.

It was supposed to be for their togetherness, but right now Yeonjun just felt guilty.

He couldn't even reach for Beomgyu's hand.

Finally, the black-haired man turned to Yeonjun before they could even reach the building. "I want answers," Beomgyu grumbled quietly, pulling his hands out of his pockets only to cross his arms in front of his chest.

"Okay," Yeonjun muttered in a questioning tone, biting his lower lip. Then he nodded in agreement. "What do you want to know?"

Beomgyu frowned.

While he wasn't mad at Yeonjun anymore, he still felt the anger, but this time more at himself than at the blond. "How long has this been going on? Have they known about us since I left school? Did they see you that day too?"

"After you left, it didn't take long for him to start insulting me too." He let out a heavy sigh and the slumping shoulders also showed that this burden was on him. "When it came out that it had been Jinhyung who had beaten you up, he got suspended," he said, remembering Ryujin and the thug's brawl. "I think ... they kind of knew," Yeonjun replied, "they were talking about you and bashing you, and I couldn't take it anymore."

"It-it came out!?" gasped Beomgyu, staring at Yeonjun as if he had a pink elephant trunk growing on his nose. "How? I didn't tell the school a word! And Taehyun certainly didn't see them."

Because by the time Beomgyu had been found by Yeonjun's buddy, the bullies had been long gone.

Yeonjun lifted his shoulders ignorantly.
