you peeked over the bookshelf, silently observing the dark-haired male. dan heng. the popular senior. he was the student council president, straight as, reserved. everyone said he was extremely good-looking.
   however, he declined every party request and every confession that he received. some say that his good looks were wasted on studying. any time he was near you, he had his notebook open, jotting down notes, and a cup of coffee beside him. 
    he was always either in the school library or in a bookstore. well, you knew this by stalking him.
   let's rewind to the first time you met him.

   it was a bright thursday morning, and you were speeding down the halls. as you sharply turned the corner, you collided with someone. falling down, you dropped your books and held your head.
    "sorry. are you alright?" a voice said, and you opened your eyes to be met with teal ones. as your vision cleared, a familiar face came into view. you were sure you had seen this person all over your social media. he reached his hand out for you to take and you gladly took it.
    at this point, you couldn't take your eyes off him. you just kept staring into his eyes, examining every feature he had.
    dan heng bent down, picked up your books for you, and handed them back to you. "um... ill see you around."
    you just nodded and when he turned to leave, you felt your cheeks burn. it was at that moment that you knew, you were head over heels for him.
  of course you had seen pictures of him before, giving how popular he is. but to you, he looked way better in person than online.
  you were frozen in shock for a few seconds before dashing into your classroom, sitting down swiftly and pulling out your laptop.
   as the lecture progressed, you couldn't help but not think of dan heng. after, you asked your friend where he was, since it was lunch break. your friend told you he was probably in the library.

and thats when the stalking started.

  present

      suddenly, as you were watching him, he suddenly spoke.
"i know your there." his stoic voice echoed between the shelves, making you pretend to look for books. between the bookshelf spaces, you saw him getting up and walking over to your row.
   your nervousness only grew every step he took. what would he do once he found out you were watching him? what would he say? would he be mad at you? is your chance with him over?
   suddenly, as you were running your fingers along the book spines, you felt a hand tap your shoulder.
   "{name}? you were staring at me, weren't you?" he said, his voice smooth as silk. you refused to turn around, honestly afraid.
   "i-i don't know what your-" you began, but he hushed you.
   "don't lie to me." he said, and let go of you. dan heng walked back to his desk and sat down again. you could practically picture him smirking. "why watch from over there when you can just sit here?"
