Chp 13

"Excuse me, Mr. Choi." Beomgyu called out his professor.

Soobin looked up from his laptop where he had been busy working. "Oh, Beomgyu, you're here." he said with a smile.

"Y-Yes Sir, uh... I-I was hoping to get the syllabus you mentioned earlier before you dismissed the class." Beomgyu cleared the invisible lump in his throat and averted his gaze, feeling uncomfortable under the male steady stare. "Sir Choi?" he prompted when Soobin remained silent and continued to look at him.

"Ah, y-yes... the syllabus, of course! Can you wait for a minute? I need to print some new copies because some other students requested them, and I ran out of hard copies."

"T-That's alright, Professor Choi." he replied.

Soobin nodded and began printing the syllabuses.

Beomgyu watched his every move. The older leaned against the table where the printer was, hands in his pockets, and looked back at him.

Now Beomgyu felt self-conscious.

What could be the problem? Why had he been staring at him for so long? Did he have something on his face? But that was impossible, surely Jake would have mentioned it earlier.

Beomgyu took a deep breath and looked around the faculty room. There weren't many other professors there. "Mr. Choi?" he began. "D-Do you have a problem with me? You've been staring at me for a while."

Soobin chuckled, scratching the end of his eyebrow and looking at him with amusement. "I'm sorry, are you feeling uneasy?"

"To be honest, Professor, y-yes, I am..." Beomgyu admitted, grimacing a little.

"I'm sorry, Choi Beomgyu. I'm just so happy that I met you."

"P-Pardon?" Beomgyu couldn't understand him at all.

"Nothing, don't mind me. Here." Soobin handed him the freshly printed syllabus. Beomgyu took it immediately, and as he did, Soobin gently brushed his cheek with his hand.

"You're so beautiful." Soobin murmured, watching the younger pupils.

Beomgyu stepped back from the man. "A-Alright, Mr. Choi, I... I'll be going now." he quickly turned around and hurried out of the faculty room, shaking his head. He was really starting to find that professor strange.

As he exited the faculty room, he saw Jake talking on his phone.

"Oh, okay, bye babe, love you, mwuahh!" Jake said, hanging up as he spotted Beomgyu. "So, hyung? Was Profhotty inside?!" he asked excitedly.

"Yeah, here's our syllabus..." Beomgyu replied, putting the papers into his bag. He decided to distribute them to his classmates tomorrow since they had probably gone home by now.

Beomgyu checked his phone and smiled when he saw a text message from Taehyun, who said he was waiting for him outside the campus.

"Jake, do we have anywhere else to go? I need to head home..." he asked the younger.

Jake gave him a teasing smile. "Nope, why? Is your boyfriend picking you up? Let's go, we can leave the campus together, Beomie-hyung!"

They left the campus together, but parted ways when a guy, who looked like he also studied at the university, came to pick up Jake.

Jake excitedly introduced the male as his boyfriend.

Beomgyu approached the car where Taehyun was waiting. The younger was frowning as Beomgyu found him sitting in the backseat. Beomgyu gave Changbin a questioning look, but the male just smiled and signaled with his finger that he was in trouble.
