over me - ricky pt 2

I walk in the classroom and see everyone staring at me. why are they staring? i just sit down at my seat and place my bag down. weird. i bring out my books and look around again but this time i see the mean girls poking their heads through the gap of the door and see them looking at me. i give them a dirty look and they leave. finally they do something they are told to do. wait. why would they walk away after i give them a dirty look? it doesn't make any sense. class starts a few minutes later. "chuu?" "here!" "jackson wang?" "here sir" "zi hao?" "here" "ricky?" ... a silence filled the room. i look up from my work and around the room but still no sight of ricky. i slowly open my phone and check if the teacher is looking at me or not.

y/n: why aren't you here today?
y/n: @ricky

"y/n." someone says my name. i gulp and look up. the teacher. "detention. right. now."

i can't believe this. i already went to detention once for flooding the restroom floor and now i'm here again?! if I get another detention slip i'm gonna get suspended from school for a month! i groan and put my head on the table. only three people are in the room. seok matthew, park hanbin, and the security guard. seok matthew is a really nice guy, just don't push his buttons especially his friend's. park hanbin is pretty cool too. he is the basketball teams leader and is soon enough gonna be graduating. I wonder why he's in here though. someone throws a paper ball at me. "who did that?" i say forgetting that we're in detention and not the classroom. the guard shushes me and i just roll my eyes. i pick up the paper ball and unwrap it. "what's your name? we're matthew and hanbin." had been written on the paper. i turn around and smile at them. "turn around!" i give the guard a side eye and start writing on the paper. "im y/n but you guys can call me n/n. how did u guys end up in here?" i wrote and threw back. they threw one back to me not even 30 seconds after. "oh yeah i've heard you're my friend, ricky's, gf. - matthew." i read. i blushed a little. "matthew got in here for trying to climb the fence and i got in here for breaking a window. u?" climbing a fence and breaking a window is crazy. I write "where did u hear that from? i got in here for being on my phone😭" and throw it back and later on feel a paper to my back. "from ricky;)" it says. I get a little flustered and look back at them. they wave. they seem nice. i wonder what being with them the whole school day will be like. a few hours pass and it's time for lunch. we get our lunches delivered to us so we don't have to move an inch. todays lunch is dumpling soup with a portion of kimchi and rice at the side and water. "well, normally i wouldn't let anyone in detention speak but since you guys got in here for little things, im gonna let you guys." the guard said. we all gasped and bowed. i sat next to matthew and hanbin. "so... how does ricky treat you?" matthew said with a coy smile. i choked on my water. as i stop choking, i look at him. "we just started dating yesterday, though!" i gave him a crazy look. he and hanbin laughed. "he's joking. you seem cool. are you from around here?" hanbin asked while smiling. "not really. my house is kind of far away. but thanks, hanbin. i've always watched you guys from afar but never got the chance to talk to y'all." i can't help but smile. i grew up not getting compliments and not giving compliments back so it was kind of hard telling them how much i admired them. "really?!" matthew's eyes are wide open. he covers his mouth with his hand. "yes, really. you seemed like a really good friend, but i never had the courage to come up and try to be your friend. and hanbin? you're my idol, seriously! your basketball skills are insane!" i continue. they both have shocked faces. shoot. what am i doing? i shouldn't be acting this way. "oh, im sorry. i guess i got a little too excited." i nervously laugh. "oh no, it's fine! we're just happy to hear from honest people." hanbin says. i smile and talk to them for a little while more. soon, it's the end of the day. i walk out and try to look for my friends. where are they? maybe they drove away without me. how could they?! i groan and pull out my phone.
