The lunch room was silent as they watched with anticipation as Vasco and David stared at each other. After David removed Vasco's hand from his shoulder without a struggle, the air became thick with tension.
You couldn’t help but wonder what will happen nor did you know what to expect. But you hoped a fight didn’t break out not that you think one would actually happen. What you summed up was Vasco was just trying to scare David into submission.
And if i fight did happen, it would make Vasco seem like a bad person and that was far from true, rumors spread easy and usually have the wrong information. And since so many eyes are on them, and there's no telling how many people will switch the topic around and create mini rumors that'll get out of hand.
Vasco gets ready to swing on David and you get ready to leave, but before you could Jace gets in front of Vasco stopping him which caused a lot of different reactions to go off in the cafeteria, most of which was just sounds of displeasure/annoyance.
”You just thought he was someone else,Right?”, Jace asked David who looked a little confused before nodding but he apologized and agreed, how this was an accident of mistaken identity.
They began to talk and Jace brought down the tension in the cafeteria.
”Forget it and eat,” Jace says ending the conversation, and listening to everyone’s thoughts and opinions and most of them was basically praising David.
You thought about walking over to where Jiho was, but as long as David was around you definitely wouldn’t. The way everyone was still watching him like he was prey, made you uncomfortable.
Not because you hated attention, but because you didn’t feel like dealing with the girls like Zoe. You didn’t stay long before leaving, whatever happens Jiho would tell you.
He always did.

“And supposedly their hanging out tonight for some type of hang out so that Zack and Daniel, can get a long, ” Jiho ranted has he sat in front of his desk trying to do his work, he was in the bathroom when Zack's crew discussed about it, he made sure to be as quiet as he could so he didn’t catch their attention. Lucky enough they were in a stall which made it a lot more easier.
He just couldn’t pass up the possibility of telling you what happened in the restroom, now that he was safe at home and you woke up from your after school nap.
“Wait a minute”, You say pausing in your nail painting “David's name is Daniel?, are you serious?”
You asked feeling betrayed that his name wasn’t actually David and you find out in a very boring way,.
Would be so much cooler if you found out at like a festival when people were screaming his name and your looking around looking for who Daniel is and low and behold its David standing in the stage and that’s when you find out his name or any other way that sounded cool. sometimes you had a very large imagination.
“Oh right, you thought he’s name was David”, Jiho says humming as he remember, he wonders if he should’ve had you kept getting his name wrong.
“How long have you known his name wasn’t David? And oh my stars! We know two Daniel now because of the cashier”, You say going back to painting your nail as you thought about the short chubby Daniel‘I wonder if he’s working right now.
Then you begin to think what it was like to love the life of a short boy.
"hey jiho, what's it like to be so...short", She questions cutting of jiho accidentally. Jiho huffed rolling his eyes, not like she could see.
"I'm not short, people are just ungodly tall in our school", He says, shaking his head. "they're just born tall and attractive"
"Short people are attractive too you know, like you", She says and jiho blushes.
"Your still calling me short so I'm not gonna take that compliment", He says, looking back at his worksheet, but he couldn't help the way his heat skipped a beat, did his best friend really think he was attractive? Him of all people, or was she just playing. He wasn't going to ask just in case it was a joke.
"What are you doing", She questions, as she lets her nails dry.
"Homework", jiho says, smiling "Want me to send you the answers?"
"nah, I'd rather just guess I always get a better grade than Zack and that's what I like to accomplish", She says carefree as she looks at her nails polish, wondering what if she ate it. She knew it would be bad to eat but weirdly enough it looked appetizing.
Jiho sighs.
"I'll give you the answers so you can get a good grade" He says, he knows she wouldn't actually take the answers and he's happy that she doesn't use him for his brain but at the same time, he wishes she would try. His alarm went off beside him and he checks the time, he begins to talk but once more she beats it to him.
"You're going to bed now?" She questions "it's 9", she looks at the clock on her wall.
"Yea, goodnight and do your assignment please", He says.
"night night, see ya tomorrow", She makes kissing sounds before hanging up, Jiho only shook his head, grinning.
"Silly girl", He mutters putting his phone down and getting his homework and taking pictures before sending it to Zack's crew, they left him on seen. He knew they would, they never say thank you, he knew this but it still pissed him off, but he could never do anything so he sighs and lays in bed going to sleep.
Wishing that life was a little different, still grateful to have you in his life nonetheless.
