Tomorrow was quick to arrive and Taehyun and Huening was still stuck in their Physical Education class, although the other four had already bunked them successfully.

"Huening, come on now." The peach-head whispered with urgency to the ravenette as their PE teacher had his back facing the two male.

"I'm not gonna bunk classes." The younger snapped quietly at Taehyun, yanking his wrist away from the older's grip.

"Well, everyone is bunking. All the six of us." The peach-head half-annoyedly reminded. "You don't even know how to play any outdoor games. What the fuck are you being stubborn for?"

"Damn you." Huening mumbled under his breathe as he eventually gave in to Taehyun's logics.

The two was rapid and smooth to dodge their teacher's eyes and sneaked off to the empty, darkened little yard behind the highs school building. The other four were already there, Beomgyu and Yeonjun lying on the soft grass carefreely and Jungkook and Soobin having a solemn conversation.

Huening didn't even glance at Soobin and padded his way to the laying couple. He plopped himself down into a lying position beside them, his arms bent and nape resting on them.

Every pair of eye was now fixed on Soobin, impatiently waiting for him to make a move on Huening. The elder ravenette gulped thickly, breathing heavy with nervousness. Taehyun gave him a cheerful yet noiseless pat on the back, gesturing him to get up.

With one last assurance-seeking glare at his friends, Soobin got to his feet and shifted closer to Huening's distracted laying form.

Unsure of how to start things, Soobin let out a awkward "Hey.." .

The younger shot up straight, not noticing that Yeonjun and Beomgyu had inched away from the two ravenette to a bit further space, where they say along with Taehyun and Jungkook eyeing both the males eagerly.

An eyebrow of Huening was raised upwards highly as he glanced at Soobin with irritation. "Seriously? What the hell you want?" Sarcasm lingered on every word dropping off his mouth. He was trying hard to give Soobin a heartache so the elder would finally leave him alone and Huening would be able to move the fuck on.

"Not so sure about that." Soobin commented thoughtfully. "But I think you need to trust me now with what I say."

"Okay?" The younger's eyebrow shot up even higher with mockery, now completely hidden beneath his thick, raven bangs. He wasn't curious at all, nor he wanted to listen to any single word Soobin was going to utter. He loathed Soobin for hurting him! He hated the elder so bad that it made his heart clench and tremble with ache. He wanted to snap at Soobin to leave him the fuck alone and fudge off.

But what if his prayers of making a miracle happen was just about to come true right now? Damn you Huening stop thinking about impossible crap. Yet he couldn't help but desperately wish in his mind that the things Soobin would say to be what he had been dying to hear.

He watched with a sneer as Soobin's upper two front teeth nibbled on his bottom lip nervously. "I-I f-feel likeilikeyou."

First stuttering and then blurting, Huening caught none of the words, but it surely made his heart thump twice faster. Was...was it.. happening? "Pardon?" He decided to go formal and spat with deep furrows on his face, considering he still was intending to avoid Soobin anyway.

Soobin shut his eyes tightly as he tried to soothe his thudding heart. You can do it.. he's been dying to hear it from you. Now that you exactly mean it, don't screw things up. "Huening I think...I like you." He confessed breathily, more clearly than the previous one.

"N-no!" Huening exclaimed with a cracking voice. "Y-you're ki-kidding!" He jumped to get to his feet, and so did Soobin.

"I am not." Soobin whispered gently.

At this point, the other four watching from afar had their breathes holding and eyes round with desperate curiosity.

"Stop messing with my head Choi Soobin!" The younger barked at him, finding it hard to keep his voice calm and steady.

"I'm not messing with your head. Trust me I'm not!" Soobin tried as he shifted closer to the younger. "I-I just realized that you've always been loving me and I was dumb to not to understand that I genuinely like you too." He whispered softly and attempted to take a grasp of Huening's hand.

"You're lying." The younger's eyes twinkled with pain and disbelief, hints of indecision glinting in those orbs as well. No sooner had Soobin's hand came in a feather ligh contact with his own, he pulled his hand away from the elder with a harsh jerk. "You just... don't wanna see me being hurt so you're lying that you like me. Hyung must've spilled that I like you and that's why you're doing all these. J-just to make me feel better and nothing else." Even though he spoke this out, he eagerly prayed in his head for Soobin to say no. To say that he genuinely liked him without any manipulation or anything.

And the elder did. "Well, it's partly true." Huening could swear he heard a creaking crack forming on his heart by that statement. "Because, if hyung never did I wouldn't have understood that those weird things I been feelin' about you were a crush." His eyes beamed at the younger with a different glow and the younger could practically see that Soobin was actually stating the truth.

Huening stood frozen in his spot, considering the words. He was suffering badly from indecision. He wanted to give Soobin a chance, he wanted to know if all those things the elder had confessed were actually nothing but the truth. But at the same time, he refused to bring down his pride anymore. He stared at Soobin absent-mindedly and finally exhaled a gush of wind, his face firm and stern. "I'll think about it. Excuse me." He blurted out and dashed away from there.

Soobin stared at the direction with a sly curve on his lips, his heart doing bounces and flips. "Guess I didn't fail awfully." He grinned at the other four.

"I hope so." Yeonjun chuckled half-heartedly as got to his feet and ran following the direction to where Huening had gone.

Silence ruled over them for a couple of seconds, which Taehyun chose to cut through. "There's a meteor shower tonight." He shot a swift wink to Soobin.

The ravenette flusteredly rubbed the back of his head, chuckling dumbly at his friends' smirking faces.
