ETERNALLY | ( t. yushi ) ✓

Today was the day of the school trip. Yushi was excited to say the least. It'd be his first time going to Jeju island, and since only their class would be there. It means that he had at least a week to make Anton and Evie fall in love.

The students were now starting to board the plane. All of them going in as they then tried to find their seats.

"Do you want to sit by the window Anton?" Yushi asks as Anton shook his head a no.
"You could sit there. I think I'd feel sick if I saw how high up we are in the sky." He tells him as the Japanese boy grins at him before claiming the window seat. Anton was afraid of heights, seeing that he was high above land freaked him out. The opposite for Yushi since he was so used to flying all the time, seeing that he was high up in the sky brought him some sort of peace.

"Evie where's your seat?" Minji asks as she was putting her, Rei and Liz's baggage up. The three friends were sat in the window row together and so they were wondering where Evie's seat was. Hopefully it wasn't far away from them.
"I'm in this row. I'll be behind you guys... oh my days, why does the universe hates me." She sighs when she realised that she has to sit in the same row as Anton and Yushi. More specifically, she had to sit right beside Anton.

"You got the wrong seat. Your seat is where they store all the luggage." Anton tells her as Evie could just look at him dead in the eye.
"I think someone is setting this up because why am I always stuck with you." She groans before putting her bag away.
"The universe just wants us to be together, what can I say?" He shrugs his shoulders before placing his attention on his phone.

Well maybe Yushi had something to do with the seating placement. He might've used a bit of magic to make Anton and Evie sit beside each other for the whole plane ride to Jeju Island and back to Seoul.

They had finally arrived at the hotel that they were going to be staying at after arriving at Jeju Island. Yushi slept like a newborn baby when the plane had taken off. So he had no idea if anything had happened between Anton and Evie or not. Who cares, he could just look back at Anton's file that he had stolen when he sneaked into the archive vaults to see if Anton was hiding any interactions with her from him.

"Are you going to the pool?" Yushi asks when he sees Anton about to leave the lobby.
"Yeah. My body is sore after that flight." He answers before raising a brow at his friend. "How about you?"
"I'm going to go over to the restaurant and eat something. That airplane food was disgusting. Have fun swimming though." Yushi replies before running off.

Yushi was going to enjoy his time eating all the good food after being forced to eat that nasty airplane food. He'd rather eat cat food for the rest of his life rather than an ounce of food that they serve in the plane.

When he enters the restaurant, he sees Rei and Liz alone together there. Weird, why weren't they with Minji or Evie? Those four were inseparable.

"Rei!" Yushi calls out as the two girls look over at him.
"Yushi. You hungry as well?" Rei answers when he sees the boy with orange hair run over to them.
"Yeah, food was shit in the sky. Where's Minji and Evie?" He replies as he looks around to see if the other two girls were around.

Liz and Rei looked at each other in silence before they looked at Yushi with sad looks on their faces.

"Evie's a very hard and stubborn person to invite to lunch. She's so strict with what goes in her body because she's being put on a diet by her ballet teacher. Minji is currently trying to persuade her to at least eat something because she hasn't eaten anything since departing. The two of us tried to earlier but it didn't work." Liz explains.

Yushi do you believe in soulmates?
Soren's voice suddenly echoes in his head.
If none of Evie's friends could convince her to eat, maybe Anton could.

"I have an idea on how she could eat!" Yushi says excitedly as he wraps his arms around Liz and Rei's shoulders as he explains the plan.

"Anton's currently outside swimming in the pool. I want you girls to talk about Evie not wanting to eat in front of Anton so he starts getting worried about her. When you see him, pretend as if you didn't realise that he was around and then ask him if he could help." Yushi explains.
"And how are you so sure that this would work?" Rei questions him.
"Because we all know that there's something going on between those two. If no one else could convince Evie, maybe Anton could. You know how good Anton is at convincing people." He says.

"I like his plan. I think we should try it." Liz agrees as she and Yushi looks over at Rei.
The girl rolls her eyes before sighing.
"I guess it wouldn't hurt to try." She gave in.
"Great! Anyways, what food does Evie like? I'll go and buy it, then I'll just make Anton deliver the food over to her. Oh, also what's her room number."

(՞⸝⸝o̴̶̷̥᷅ ̫ o̴̶̷᷄⸝⸝՞)و

Anton opens the bathroom door after finishing his shower to get the biggest fright of his life.

"*holy shit, don't fucking jumpscare me like that Yushi." He exclaims when he sees Yushi standing in front of the bathroom.
"Sorry. You were taking so long in the bathroom. I got impatient." Yushi apologises.

"Do you need to use the toilet or something?" Anton questions him as Yushi shook his head a no.
"I brought food. Rei and Liz asked me if I could give them to you so you could deliver this to Evie. Her room is a floor above us, room number 105." He says and hands a plastic bag filled with food over to Anton.
"Ok I'll give these later to her, I need to dry my hair first-" Anton wasn't even given an opportunity to finish his sentence off as Yushi had started pushing him out of their shared hotel room.

"Nope. Go deliver this to her right now before she starves, you hear me? Bye!" Yushi flashes him a smile before shutting the door on Anton's face.

if you're wondering why soulmates are related to this book, it's because Anton's book is a soulmate au that's why 😞 I don't rlly want to change the plot too much and I want to connect that book with this.
