fourth's pov

I had realised I drifted off to sleep when I woke up in the middle of the night. I heard something rustling in another room and I noticed gemini wasn't in the bed. I looked around the room and I didn't see gemini anywhere. I got up and I went over to the bathroom, knocking on the door but not getting a response.

I got confused. "gem, are you in there?" I asked and I didn't get an answer after a few seconds. "yeah, I'm in here. sorry." he said and I sighed a bit. "it's okay. I'll go back to sleep. come in bed when you're done in there." I said and heard a faint 'okay' coming from the bathroom before I went to the bed and lied down.

I closed my eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep, after a while I could realise that gemini lied down beside me too and he lightly wrapped his arms around my waist, I just smiled a bit and I fell asleep.

the next morning I woke up and I checked the time. it wasn't really late. I had time to get ready.

I got up and I walked to the bathroom, grabbing my toothbrush and squeezing toothpaste on it. I brushed my teeth and washed my face after that. drying my face with a towel.

I went out of the bathroom and I got dressed, before I went down the stairs and I saw gemini and his mom talking. I went over to the kitchen and I took a glass, filling it up with water and drinking it.

gemini came over to me and wrapped his hands around my torso, hugging me from behind. he always did that whenever he had the chance to.

I smiled and turned my head to look at him. "good morning." he said and kissed my cheek. "good morning." I told him and turned around again.

he let me go and I turned around, leaning in a bit and pecking his lips. he smiled and looked at me. "are you hungry? we made breakfast." gemini asked me. I shook my head. "no, I'm not hungry." I said and gemini frowned slightly.

"you ready for school then?" he asked me and I nodded. "of course. are you?" I replied, smiling back to him. "as always. since you're ready we can go now." he said and left the kitchen, going to put his shoes on. I followed him and did the same before we both headed out.

----

we got to school and before we got out of gemini's car we shared one small kiss and I hopped out of it. he came out a bit after me and we walked in the school together.

I saw phat there with pring and way who were laughing and teasing eachother while phat was just on his phone. I smiled a bit and phat looked up from his phone and saw me. he also smiled before he looked down at his phone.

this was a pretty good morning for me. not like other ones.

I got to my classroom and said bye to gemini before I walked in. a bit later the teacher walked in and the class started.

gemini's pov

I was sitting in class when suddenly, the same girl from the other day was staring at me again. I tried ignoring her but I really couldn't. her gaze was like knives in my back.

I turned around to look at her and I expected her to look away but no, she was staring at me in my eyes with a weird look. I just looked away and tried focusing.

she left my mind for a few minutes until I saw a crumpled up pink piece of paper infront of me. I took it and I opened it, seeing something written on it.

'meet me in the chemistry classroom at lunch. I'll be waiting <3' the note read and I raised my eyebrow, turning to look at anyone who might've thrown it at me. I saw the girls eyes were lit up and looking at me. I cringed internally and looked away, trying to ignore her gaze.

----

the bell rang for lunch and I got up quickly, wanting to get this over with and just reject the girl.

I was walking in the hallways and I stopped at my locker, taking my phone from my pocket to text fourth.

gem🔆: baby I might be late for lunch, I have to get something over with. I'll text you when I'm on my way.

the message was seen by fourth a few seconds after I sent it.

fnj❀: okay, be safe ❤️
gem🔆: ❤️

I put my phone away and I walked over to the chemistry classroom, opening the door and walking in. the girl was already in there, sitting on one of the chairs.

when she realised I'd entered the room she shot up to her feet and shyly walked over to me, tucking her hair behind her ear.

I just looked at her, holding one of the straps of my backpack while the other one was off, looking down at her. she was pretty short, maybe a head and a half shorter.

she put her hands behind her back and rocked side to side in place a bit. I looked at her with a confused look on my face, waiting for her to speak up, but she didn't. "why did you ask me to come here?" I asked her, since she wasn't talking.

"uhm... I wanted to tell you something." she stuttered only slightly, looking up at me, batting her eyelashes. "yeah, go ahead." I said, knowing exactly what she was going to say. "gemini I uh.. I-I like you..." she mumbled and I just raised an eyebrow. "I'm sorry, I don't even know your name." I said and she just looked back down.

I rubbed my eye with my pointer and middle finger, looking down at her. "I'm uh.. I'm malai, from class you know." she said and I nodded. "okay, cool. but still, I don't think we can be together- well I don't think, but I rather know." I said and she suddenly changed her expression.

"what? why?" she asked, nervousness in her voice. "I'm dating someone else." I said and she furrowed her eyebrows. "who?" she asked again, the shyness in her voice leaving, being slightly replaced by a more stern tone. "it's not your business really." I said and looked at her. "tell me who is it please." she said, pleadingly. so I just had to tell her, if I didn't she'd blow my head off, she seemed like that type of person. "It's fourth." I said, simply and her eyes widened. "nattawat??" she as her voice once again changed.

it was a more annoyed voice now. she seemed annoyed. I just nodded and she scoffed. "okay." she said and looked through the door. I noticed her eyes twinkle a bit before she looked back and looked at me.

suddenly, she leaned in and got on her tip toes, pressing her lips against mine. I was shocked, my eyes widened in shock and I couldn't really move. until finally after a few seconds I pushed her away and I looked at her. "what the hell is wrong with you? I just told you I'm dating someone!" I yelled at her slightly and she flinched. it wasn't like it was a real one, just to add drama to her show.

she then just fake sobbed and ran out of the room, leaving me stunned and frozen in my spot, furious as well. how could she? how could she kiss me like that? this was just stupid. I'd tell fourth either way. I didn't want to keep this a secret as if I liked or wanted any of it.
