Do you really hate me ?

Chapter 22

They walk to the library, looking around all the books on the shelves trying to remember which one the teacher showed them. Flipping trough the pages of some random ones that had nothing to do with the one they were looking for , just cuz they seemed intresting.
"What was the title again?" Asks jaehyun looking trough the genres.
"Something about 12th grade math and physics" he replies looking in the same places as him, barely remembering the cover.
"Well wasn't that obvious?" He chuckles keeping a soft smile which makes Minsoo's heartbeat increase "....i think I found it, the cover he showed us looked kinda like this one right?"
"Yeah, probably. Let's go borrow it" jaehyun replies as they walk towards the desk of that library lady, they borrow the book, walking out of the library , a girl rushes past them, her backpack half open, on one shoulder, she kept checking the time and fixing her hair.
'Where would she be hurrying to like that' thinks jaehyun moments before Minsoo accidentally falls on his back , slipping on a pencil that girl dropped. Jaehyun starts laughing, as he plops down next to him, not being able to stop laughing for a few minutes as Minsoo stands there chuckling at jaehyuns laugh.
"Sorry, sorry, it was just so funny, come on let's get up" he says getting up, lending him a hand while still chuckling remembering what happened just moments ago. "Wait a second. Whys your arm bleeding?" Jaehyun asks worried, grabbing Minsoo's arm to find where he got hurt, finding a cut on the side. "Oh god, this won't heal so easily, let's go to the nurses office, right now" he says looking more worried
"Don't worry about it, it doesn't hurt that bad" says Minsoo as jaehyun drags him to the nurses office
"Yes it is that bad. I can't let you walk around with that cut! It's bleeding!" He says worried, trying to remember which direction the office was at.
"It's really no big deal"
"Yeah it is" he says as they walk into the nurses office, only for her not to be there, as she usually only comes to work a few hours a day
"She's not here, well, sit down" says jeahyun grabbing a bandage and a disinfectant from the drawer carefully wiping the blood off , as Minsoo's ears get redder and redder, looking everywhere but at jaehyun trying to calm down.
"All done, it shouldn't bleed anymore, does it hurt? Your ears are red, does your head hurt too?" Asks jaehyun worried , Minsoo caught off guard, almost choking on the water he was drinking hearing him notice that.
"No, no, it's just hot in here" says Minsoo not really knowing how to respond
He chuckles "alright, well, let's got back to class, it should end in about 20 minutes, I didn't even notice the time passing by, we could just go hang around and go back when class ends if you want, sorry abt that" says jaehyun looking at the time
"Sure...you don't have to apologise" He mutters as they walk out towards the rooftop, whispering abt random teachers, trying not to laugh.
"What's your favourite subject?" Asks jaehyun leaning against the wall
"I do well in math and stuff but I kinda like art" responds Minsoo plopping down, with his back against the wall next to jaehyun, resting his head on the wall while looking up at him.
"Really? I though you'd say anything but that. Though it does make sense, you paint really well" he says scratching the back of his neck looking to the side towards the railway.
"Hm? When did you notice that?" He asks confused
"When we had that art project, I was really shocked to be honest, but that painting was actually really good"
"Ohh, I didn't think you remembered that.." he responds flustered, resting his arms on his knees looking down "What about you'd tho?"
"Hm, I kinda like music class, but I hate it when she started teaching theory and all that, I just like listening to music and sometimes making up my own. But other than that, I don't know if I like anything else, maybe English class"
"Really? What do you listen to?" He asks looking back up at jaehyun, as he plops down next to Minsoo, pulling out his old headphones, they were some yellow wire headphones he used once and the forgot about them, but found them in an old backpack a few days ago. Minsoo watches as jaehyun searches through his playlists, looking for a song he thinks Minsoo would like, both of them standing really close, not yet realising it.
"Found it, I think you'll like this one" he says plugging in the headphones. Both standing even closer to each other as the wires weren't very long. An indie kind of song starts playing as Minsoo quickly pulls out a tiny sketchbook, drawing a picture the song was painting in their heads, making jaehyun unintentionally smile as they both stand there, so close jaehyun almost leaned his head on Minsoo's shoulder without realising as he watched and saw the similarities between the song and the drawing. Few moments later, as jaehyun watched the drawing come to fruition, quickly noticing how close they were standing, as the breeze pulled them even closer together, he couldn't help but get nervous, not knowing why himself, his ears getting redder as he keeps fidgeting with the headphone wire, watching his heart beat faster, tho, he didn't ...hate it ?
"These songs are actually so good, how did you know I'd like them?" Asks Minsoo closing the sketchbook go look at the time.
"Ha, took a guess" he asnwers pretending to look though the playlists , not knowing which song he was looking for either.
"It's almost end of class, I think we should go back" he says getting up lending jaehyun a hand too.
"Yeah, let's go" they walk back towards the classroom, Minsoo noticing the song is now stuck in his head, not paying much attention to the way forward.

"Where were you? The teacher didn't notice, somehow, or just took the opportunity to have a normal class, but where did you go?" Asks Ryung looking at both of them as he was last to finish packing all his stuff.
"Just on the rooftop, there were 20 minutes left so we just skipped it" answers jaehyun looking around the classroom to see if anyone else is left there.
"Oh, alright, well the teacher told me to tell you that you're on cleaning duty today, since it was me and that other girl on cleaning duty yesterday"
"Damm, ok then, see you tomorrow" says jaehyun waving at Ryung who's already at the door
"Bye"
"Alright well, I'll start mopping the floor, how abt you wipe down the white board and then we'll take out the trash, and get out of here" says jaehyun heading towards the supply closet waiting to Minsoo to come too.
"Yeah, sure"
"The mop should be around here somewhere" says jaehyun looking around quickly finding it, walking back towards the classroom.
About 20 minutes later. They get everything done, walking out towards the exit.
"I think we got everything done pretty quickly" says Minsoo looking at the time
"Yeah, there wasn't that much to do either than it usually is" says jaehyun noticing as they get to the exit that it's raining heavily outside. "Oh, I forgot to bring an umbrella, do you have one?" He asks looking at how heavily it's raining
"Yeah, it's kinda small but should work" say Minsoo looking through his bag
They walk home, both of them standing really close to each other, and both of them noticing it. 'We're standing so close..why am I acting like this it isn't such big of a deal, it's just an umbrella' jaehyun thinks as they get to his home "thank you" he says walking quickly towards he door, not seeing how equally red Minsoo was. Locking the door behind him, not even noticing his sister wasn't home, he leans against his bedroom door, half covering his mouth with his hand, watching the wall with wide eyes as he tries to figure out who he always acts like this, calming himself with music.
As Minsoo walks towards his home, which wasn't too far away, his hand on his chest as he attempts to calm down.
"Back from school? Good, I just finished making lunch, well..almost dinner but still. Come eat, then go pack at least a few of your things, though why did you have to move so early? You could've moved at least after your exams, isn't moving and all gonna be a burden? I know you already know most of the materials but still..." says his dad as he walks through the door, putting a few plates on the table and taking off the apron Minsoo and his sister gifted him when they were little, he wears it whenever he cooks something ever since.
"It would've been too later after my exams, plus I can study there without hearing her blast music all day. And the apartment is really close, it would've been a waste to not buy it while it was available, it would've been sold by now if I didn't buy it then." Says Minsoo putting down his backpack to eat.
