Hyunjin has been doing art his entire life. Art was always an escape from reality for him or a way to let out his emotions. Sometimes, he would have no idea what to paint or draw. He was stumped. That was until he met his muse, Han Jisung. He's never actually met him. He's just admired him from afar. Han Jisung is the most beautiful boy he has ever seen. He has the most adorable round cheeks that you just want to squish, big black eyes, and a straight button-looking nose. Hyunjin has no idea what he would draw without the boy.

Hyunjin "met" Jisung in his English class sophomore year, and has been drawing him ever since. He knows it's creepy, but what else would he draw? Besides, the boy is beautiful. Drawing Jisung has to be one of his favorite things other than Lana Del Rey, coffee, books, and lyrical dance. He's just way too perfect. Perfect for Hyunjin.

I'm stressed. My palms are sweaty, and I'm pacing back and forth in the senior boy's bathroom. What the hell am I supposed to do!? My art teacher Mr. Kang wants me, Hwang Hyunjin to present my artwork to the school!? "I'm fucking freaking out," I say under my breath. The weed-like smell of the school bathroom isn't helping at all. Neither is the couple "quietly" making out in the fourth stall. Han Jisung, why do you have to be the school photographer? No doubt that he's going to be at my art show taking pictures for the yearbook. "He's gonna know, he's gonna know, he's gonna kn-"
"Who's going to know?" I quickly turn around to see my best friend Lee Felix looking confused as hell. Of course, he had to follow me here.

Felix and I have been attached at the hip ever since 8th grade.
He moved here from Australia and was very bubbly when he introduced himself to the class. He was always the extroverted best friend, while I was the introverted one.

I take a deep breath. "Lix, Jisung is going to know." His smile drops and he immediately puts his hands on my shoulders. "Holy shit! How!? Are you going to confess to him or some shit!?"
God, I wanna smack the shit out of Felix sometimes.
"No, you idiot! Mr. Kang is making me present my art at a show!"
"Holy shit man, you're screwed." Does he think I don't know that?
"Wow really!? I didn't know that!?" He's right. I'm so screwed.

"So, Hyunjin...are you excited to present your work?" Mr. Kang asks me. I just wanna punch this man right now. "Yeah! So excited!" I try to sound happy, but instead, I sound constipated.
"What's wrong, boy?" Why does Mr. Kang know everything?
"Yknow the boy I draw, right?" I'm hesitant to tell him the truth, but what's the harm in doing it?
"Yeah, Han Jisung!" He pauses
"Why? Is he going to be at the showcase?" AGAIN!? HOW DOES THIS MAN KNOW EVERYTHING?? I THINK I MIGHT KILL MYSELF UGH.
"Yeah. Jisung is the photographer."
"Ohhh I see~" Mr. Kang flashes his eyebrows at me before turning back to his canvas. "Well kid, go collect your artwork and bring it to the gym. After that, set them on the stands in the front. Mkay?" I roll my eyes playfully. "Okay, Taehyun~"
"Shut up and go!" I gather my art book, then leave for the gymnasium.

On the way to the gym, I feel somebody bump into my chest. I look down, only to see Jisung on the floor with his little camera and headphones next to him. "Omg! I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" Jisung scrambles up and then dusts the dirt off of his butt. Wow, he's pretty. I start to walk away, avoiding the situation. "Hey wait!" I turn around and see the squirrel-like boy looking at me with a confused face as if he was a detective trying to figure out who the criminal is.
"Do you need any help putting that stuff out for the showcase?" Shit. This squirrel-looking bitch is going to be the death of me.
"Uhhhh... no thanks I've got it." Way to blow it Hyunjin. I sound like I'm asking a question. That's how scared I am.
"Oh. Well, have a good day guy I don't know the name of!" He skips away to the library. I walk into the gym and set down all of my artwork on the front/main table. Being the star of the showcase feels great but being exposed feels like shit. Having my artwork displayed like this makes me feel like I'm running down a street naked. Tomorrow is the day it'll happen. Tomorrow Jisung will know.
