Classes end one by one and everything feels like it's going too fast. Finally it's lunch time. Doyoung couldn't be more happy and rushes out to the cafeteria to find his friend. He spots Kun sitting with his friend group but does not mind them as he always does and sits on the empty chair near him.
"Hey Doie. How was class?"
"Eh could be better or more like I don't know because I wasn't paying attention"
All could Kun do was shake his head. That's when a new voice spoke up.
"Doyoung great job. If you need someone to skip class with you can always ask me". It was Ten also known as Chittaphon.
He was a Thai transfer student who came to the school after exactly 2 months of Kun. Hence they became friends but Doyoung being the introvert never really talked to him but payed attention to their talks occasionally saying a few words and nodding. That's how the trio was formed and later the others came in.
"Are you seriously supporting this behavior Ten?" Replied Doyoung slightly confused.
"EXACTLY! Try paying attention to class Doie although it gets boring. You will get used to the longer period of classes soon don't worry. And you Chittaphon shut up and focus on your lunch. " replied Kun.
"Hey hey I was just saying. Don't get all defensive" said while putting both of his hands up in defense and slightly giggling in amusement.
"Mother Kun said it. We shall abide it as a law people." Said a new voice adding to the little commotion caused by just Doyoung admitting his state. It was YangYang.
"Ay you are a child shut up and eat your baby food." Said Xiaojun and shoved a cherry tomato in his mouth which caused YangYang's words to be muffled. Everyone giggled at the youngest's whines.
Kun finally spoke up and said "okay okay enough eat your food." And with that everyone was back with their small talks and food. Once no one was listening, Kun whispered to Doyoung "Doie you should eat. Do you want some tomatoes? Or fries? I can even steal some chips from Hendery." Doyoung was always grateful of Kun for taking care of him and being there for him. He never forgot him when everyone else did. He loved him for that not that he would admit it loud to him. He softly replied "I can eat some tomatoes but other than that I am good. I had breakfast."
"Oh yeah I know your breakfast. Fucking coffee which you drink twice a day just so that you can avoid dinner."
"Kun."
"I am sorry I just. Look Doyoung I care for you a lot and I just want you to take care of yourself and be healthy."
"I know. You know it's hard for me"
"Yeah I get it. I will give you some tomatoes"
And with that the rest of the lunch passed. Time passed by and it was also the end of school.
School was never a challenge for Doyoung ever since he was a child. Of course that's the case for most of the students until they enter high-school and hit the rock bottom. This was also the case for Doyoung. He was a 'gifted' child and suddenly he was being pressured to maintain his top scores dealing with burn out all together with his slight unnoticeable issues with his family.
This is exactly how eleventh grade passed by for Doyoung. Trying to keep himself from failing while maintaining his weight and dealing with his parents. It was hard was an understatement. But he did not know what was waiting for him in 12th grade.
(a/n : I am sorry for the huge timeskip 😭)
*an year later*
It had been barely 2 weeks to 12th grade and Doyoung was struggling. He had to not just keep himself from failing but also to raise his grades so that he could get into a well known prestigious university like his parents wanted.
He had fairly made progress with Kun's friend group. Now it could be considered his friend group too because he had been talking to them a lot more and hanging out with them. He was getting comfortable with them. He loved he was slowly stepping out of his comfort zone and he realized it was not too bad.
He was eating lunch when he suddenly noticed someone entering a guy entering the cafeteria. All the noise around him faded and all he could do was stare at him in awe.
He had huge Boba eyes which held stars in them. He was mesmerized by the way his eyes looked around and finally met his own. Before he could even admire the rest of his face, he was forced to look away. He looked back and found that the same boy was still looking at him. He had the courage to admire the rest of his face and if he could be more mesmerized by him, he stared at his plump lips. Those red plump red lips were so pretty he just wanted to kiss them. Never a pair of lips look so tempting.
He was shook out of his daydreaming and with a red blush on his cheeks looked back at the friend group who were looking at him with smug smiles on their faces.
"Looks like you just fell in love with someone" said Ten
"HUH?"
"HUH what Mr loverman"
"WHAT NO. I WAS JUST LOOKING"
"That's called staring actually and the way you were 'looking' wasn't so ordinary but okay"
"SHUT UP TEN BEFORE I SHOVE YOU IN JOHNNY'S ASS"
"OW WHERE DID HE COME FROM. LEAVE HIM ALONE." And silently added "not that I would mind"
After hearing what Ten added Doyoung threw a tomato at him and with that he was running around with Doyoung following him around.
The cafeteria was fairly crowded and one wrong step and you could bump into tables or people. Ten was jumping over tables, dodging people and running around with Doyoung struggling to keep up.
Doyoung being the dumbass tripped but managed to save himself from falling but accidentally fell on someone's back which caused the person to fall on the ground.
With all the chaos around them, Doyoung was casually laid on a strangers back.
Doyoung groaned loudly and apologized while standing up. The stranger stood up and turned around. It was the beautiful boy across the cafeteria earlier.
Doyoung cleared his throat with red blush covering his cheeks out of embarrassment and said " I am so sorry. My friend here was running away" and bowed slightly.
The stranger giggled softly and how Doyoung felt like he was in heaven. The stranger said "it's alright. No worries. But now that you did fall on me how about you fall for me?
Doyoung froze and thought he misheard him. He met his eyes with the stranger and the stranger spoke "I am Taeyong. I am the guy you were staring at across the hall"
Doyoung's faced reddened and he shuttered and replied "I w-wasn't staring. I was just l-looking. I am Doyoung."
"You can phrase it however you like Doyoung. You want to be friends darling?"
"H-huh? D-darling WHAT" he said with a reddened face.
"I am kidding Doyoung chill."
"Oh okay"
"You didn't answer my question"
"What"
"I asked if you want to be friends silly"
"OH SORRY. Yeah I would love to be"
"Love huh?"
"WHAT NO LOVE"
"Aw no love?" He said with a pout.
"WHAT"
"I am kidding Doyoung. Chill"
"Oh"
"Anyways see you after class?"
"Oh yeah sure. See you Taeyong. It was nice to meet you"
With that Doyoung ran back to his friends who were once again looking at him with amusement. And that's when he heard Ten mumbling something right beside him. He took the opportunity and started beating him up with Ten screaming dramatically.
