"It's nice that you're concerned about Rin, but..." the teacher hummed, looking up at the (H/C) girl.
"I'm afraid I don't know much either" she shook her head regretfully.
You decided to ask your teacher since Rin hadn't been attending class for a week and wasn't even answering your texts.
"I'm a little embarrassed as a teacher but you're the first to know if there are any updates on her" She said with a comforting smile.
You returned her smile with a strained one from your side. You bowed to your teacher and expressed your gratitude before leaving the room.
".....are you ok?" your eyes widened at the sight in front of you.
"I was... Looking.... For you...." Your boyfriend's panting face greeted you as soon as you exited the staff room.
"I was talking to the teacher" you said, glancing at him while he fanned his face and ran a hand through his hair.
Playfully, he pushed a plastic bag he was holding to your face. "Here, your drink"
Confused, you took the bag from him out of curiosity.
"..."
"... How did you know?" A few cartons of chocolate milkshake happened to be inside. You had a gentle smile on your face.
"I mean you are my girlfriend...I know everything about you" he closed his eyes and had a smug smile on his face.
You laughed and planted a quick kiss on his lips. He gave you a playful glance as his smile widened at your gesture.
"My you are forward today~ that too in public"
He leaned towards your ear, his voice low, his warm breath hitting your face.
"How scandalous~"
You felt a shiver go down your spine but glared at him as soon as you heard his obnoxiously cute laugh.
"Come on, I want to show you something"

"That's so... Pretty" You were taken aback by the view, you gazed at your surrounding in awe.
The pink petals of the cherry blossoms took your breath away. The wind causing the branches to sway, and the falling of few petals on the ground left you mesmerized.
Cheng Xiaoshi, on the other hand, had no interest in the pink flowers; for him, just gazing at your face was plenty.
Qiao Ling had informed him of the recent blooming of cherry blossoms in the neighborhood, so he instantly decided to take (Y/N) to see them.
'Guess it was worth it' he smiled to himself.
"Thank you bringing me here" you said, smiling at him.
"..."
He stared at your face.
You really were his light.
You were blinding to him.
He had no idea what he had done to earn this much love.
All his life everything was just one tragedy after another.
But finally, finally
He found his happiness.
In his friends,
And you.
"I know this is selfish but" he spoke, gazing at you tenderly. He was somewhat afraid, of saying his next words. Afraid that if he did, the world would steal away his happiness like some cruel joke.
"I am the happiest with you," he slowly intertwined his fingers around yours.
"I think I might love you (Y/N)"
You blinked, your gaze not straying from his. He waited for you. He would always wait for you. Letting the silence stretch till you were comfortable enough to answer.
"That's a coincidence" a sweet smile crept up your face. Your hair gently swaying in the spring wind.
"I might love you too"

"Do you know what cherry tress signify?" the boy hummed as he gazed at the pink petals.
"New Beginnings and life..." he turned to look at you rather smugly.
"Care to be my cherry tree?"
"Did you find this online?" "yep lol"
You laughed shaking your head. "I heard that they also represent death"
He thought about it for a moment before looking at you "I am not considering that"
"Why?"
"Well unlike a cherry blossom, my love for you won't be fleeting. It will be eternal!"
He hugged you, his head on your shoulder. His eyes were closed and he had a content look on his face. "So just stay by my side ok?"
Your hands met his soft hair and you played with it.
