Hyun-woo waved to his twin as she ran to Cheong-san with a small smile. On-jo smiled as she waved back to him before turning to talk to Cheong-san.

Cheong-san and Hyun-woo met eyes over the top of On-jo's head and Hyun-woo gave the older a knowing wink. Cheong-san flushed slightly, taking a moment to understand as Hyun-woo's eyes flicked to his sister before meeting his eyes again, causing the shorter's eyes widen.

Hyun-woo laughed to himself softly as he walked ahead of the two, adjusting his grip on his backpack that was swung over his right shoulder.

He glanced occassionally over his shoulder at his sister and one of his best friends.

His eyes widened as he checked the time on his phone and began running to the crossing, where heaps of other students were waiting anxiously, not wanting to be late.

The second the light turned green, Hyun-woo was heaps in front of his sister and Cheong-san. He stopped running, looking over his shoulder as the teacher stopped On-jo and everyone behind her. He bit back a laugh as she dropped Cheong-san's bag and kicked it towards him.

He turned away after he saw her being dismissed from the teachers after writing her name down and going to Cheong-san.

He immediately smiled as he saw the familiar boy up ahead. Hyun-woo did an awkward half run until he was standing next to him silently.

At first, Su-hyeok didn't notice him and continued working as usual. Until  he saw the shorter boy out of the corner of his eye.

"Oh," Su-hyeok said, slightly startled. Hyun-woo looked up at him.

"Hi," He smiled. Su-hyeok looked around discreetly before leaning down slightly and kissed Hyun-woo's forehead gently and quickly. The shorter's face immediately turned red.

"Hi," The older whispered with a smile. Hyun-woo moved closer to him with a shy smile playing on his lips. Su-hyeok grabbed his hand and put their hands in his pocket, rubbing his thumb over the back of Hyun-woo's hand gently.

Hyun-woo smiled but it quickly dropped when he saw Gwi-nam and his friends leading two 'normal' students somewhere. He nudged his boyfriend, gesturing discreetly to the group. Su-hyeok paused slightly but started walking again, this time not towards school but following the group.

The taller paused as the group went up the steps and into the part of the school that was under construction.

"Do we follow them?" Hyun-woo asked quietly, tightening his grip on Su-hyeok's hand nervously. "We should."

Su-hyeok nodded, letting the shorter lead him into the building.

It took a few minutes to find the source of the talking because of the many rooms. When they found the room, Hyun-woo paused as he saw a girl shirtless, sitting on the ground as she tried to cover her chest.

Su-hyeok glanced at Hyun-woo after taking in the scene. They met eyes and Hyun-woo's shrug was barely noticeable as he slipped his hand out of the taller's pocket and hand.

"That's enough," Su-hyeok spoke up as Gwi-nam grabbed the guy's face roughly. Gwi-nam paused, glaring at the two as they stepped further into the room. "Stop."

Gwi-nam glanced at his friend over his shoulder, who was sitting on some bags full of who knows what and scoffed, before shoving the guy away.

"Shit," Gwi-nam's friend said, "Son of a bitch." He hit the back of Gwi-nam's head. "We're not playing around, you moron."

Hyun-woo crouched in front of the girl, covering her so she could put her shirt on shakily. He opted to look at his boyfriend over his shoulder than watching her.

"You used to party with us," Hyun-woo could hear Gwi-nam's 'friend' talking to Su-hyeok as Hyun-woo stood up. "Don't act all holier-than-thou, you hear me? Take him and fuck off." He glanced at Hyun-woo.

"You need to grow up," Hyun-woo scoffed, feining confidence as he stood next to his boyfriend.

"Get outta hear," Su-hyeok told the guy who Hyun-woo was still trying to remember the name of, with no avail.

"Go ahead," He looked at the two. "You might be safe."

Hyun-woo glared at him, shoving past Gwi-nam as Su-hyeok went to the girl, who was crouched down, trying to make herself as small as possible.

"You always gonna be like this?" Su-hyeok asked as he helped her up. He grabbed her jacket and led her to the guy. "Go."

He held both of their arms as he tried to lead them out, with Hyun-woo behind them. Just in case the ones still in there wanted to try anything.

"You look really sexy in this." They stopped walking and Hyun-woo glared at Gwi-nam over his shoulder. "Should I send it to your mom? You know I'm friends with her on Facebook."

"What kind of weirdo makes friends with an old lady?" Hyun-woo finally remembered one of Gwi-nam's 'friends' — Chang-hoon.

Hye-soo pushed Su-hyeok's hand off her arm.

"I can't go," She whispered. Hyun-woo glanced at his boyfriend, who was watching the girl.

"It's okay," Hyun-woo told her gently. "You can do it."

She only shook her head and he could hear the pain in her voice. "It's not okay. Because if I leave now.. it'll be worse tomorrow."

She turned slowly to face Hyun-woo, who's face was etched with concerned. "Hye-soo..."

She just shook her head and he bit the inside of his cheek. Gwi-nam's 'friend' scoffed as Hye-soo pushed past Hyun-woo and walked back in. Su-hyeok looked at the guy, he met his eyes before walking back into the room as well.

"Take it off." Hyun-woo's hand curled into a fist. "Should I do it for you?"

"Hurry up, jeez." Hye-soo slowly unbottoned her shirt again.

Su-hyeok sighed and looked at his boyfriend, who's concerned gaze was watching the girl. He grabbed his wrist gently and pulled him out.

He was in a slight daze as he let Su-hyeok lead him out, only snapping out of his daze when they came across On-jo.

"Su-hyeok," On-jo didn't notice her twin at first.

"Hey, Morning," Su-hyeok paused before continuing, his grip on Hyun-woo's wrist not faltering.

"What did she want?" Hyun-woo glanced at his twin over his shoulder, who was following a bit far behind the two. His boyfriend shrugged.

"My class is down here," Hyun-woo dug his heels into the ground slightly, forcing Su-hyeok to stop.

"Oh yeah," His boyfriend looked down the hallway. "I'll meet you here at lunch and we can go to the cafeteria together, okay?" He nodded.

Hyun-woo waved goodbye as he started to walk away, but Su-hyeok pulled him back and kissed him on the lips quickly.

Hyun-woo's eyes widened as it was the first time they had kissed in public. He kissed back for a moment before pulling away. He glanced at his twin, who was talking to someone who was walking away.

His face was pink as he waved, rushing to his class with a smile.
