Hello there!
As promised, I have an update for you all!
I'm stuck inside with Covid, so yeah. I was supposed to start college this week (literally today) but I obviously can't cause I'm sick so that's fun. -_-
Due to the fact that I'm in college, I probably won't be updating much (as usual), but I will try to get an update every once in a while. I hope you enjoy this update 😉😈 don't be too mad! I WILL PUT A WARNING BEFORE ABUSE BEGINS AND A NOTE WHEN ABUSE ENDS.
This is gonna be quite a dramatic chapter! Have fun reading~

*Sang POV*
You want to know what I wasn't expecting? I wasn't expecting to see Jesica's older brother in my English class. I also wasn't expecting her older brother to be Dakota Lee. You see kids, this is why we get people's last names.
Luke's hand rested snuggly on my lower back, guiding me closer to my doom. Sure, Dakota never met me, there's a good chance he's never even heard of my name, but is that going to stop me from panicking? Frickity frack no.
Green eyes study me from behind black framed glasses. The photo, Jessica gave me, did him no justice. Rich, deep brown hair and a medium build, at first glance you would believe him to be a stereotypical nerd.
No, that "nerdling appearance" is just his Clark Kent disguise.
His eyes connect with mine and I want to bolt, he already knows too much. He doesn't know me, he hasn't talked to me, he hasn't even heard my name, but he knows too much.
Schooling my expression, I make my way to the chair behind him. Luke slips in behind me, saving a spot for Gabriel again.
Dakota shifts in front of me and I can feel his eyes piercing through me, I refuse to look up.
Needing to do something, I take my phone out, checking if Finn responded. Nothing. I hate it. We don't go long without talking or just seeing each other. I've been focused on him since he was 5. Ever since that day, I vowed that nothing would slip past me again, not to Finn, not my baby brother.
I clutch my earring, glaring at my phone.
A gentle chuckle breaks my thoughts, forcing me to snap my head up. "Sorry, but can I ask what the phone did to deserve such a look?" his voice, although soft, held strength.
Two snickers come from around me, one behind and one beside. Somehow, I had gotten so entranced with my phone that I hadn't noticed Gabriel come in.
Dakota sent them amused glares, before turning back to me, "I'm Dakota Lee, you can call me Kota."
"I'm... Um, I'm Sang."
He goes to say something else but is cut off by the teacher starting class.
Nine out of nine... I'm so friggin screwed.
❖
Bolting out of class seems to be a habit of mine now, I duck into the bathroom closest to my next class. It's all planned, stay away from them, leave class before they can talk to me, and hide in the bathrooms until the warning bell goes off.
I rest my head against the wall and gaze down a my phone.
Is Finn sick? Has he been sleeping? Is that why he's not responding? Did he get hurt? Did I miss something?
