Cliche ~Scorpio x Cancer

Requested by: @knightato

"Cancer, are you staring at him again?"

I snapped my thoughts from the perfect boy and rolled my eyes. "Shut up Pi, it's not like you've been staring at a picture of Yusuke the whole day." I retorted. She glared at me but I only laughed and glared back, the contest only lasting for a couple of seconds before we began to laugh.

"Shut up Cancer, we're gonna be late if we don't move!" I nodded and began my journey to Math class. I'm really excited for Math since my partner is Scorpio, and I could talk to him, and be like those cliche fanfictions, which it is.

I sat at my seat and waited for Scorpio to enter the class, late at usual, and I still don't understand why he's late at every class when he's super good at Maths, eventually. The teacher came in and we began with a couple of drills before Scorpio ran inside the room.

"Scorpio! Warning for disrupting our class like that! Now get to your seat next to Cancer. Cancer, help Scorpio catch up." Mrs. Flack (AN: for anyone who remembers her, you're cool) instructed. I blushed when Scorpio sat next to me and subtly moved closer.

"What did I miss?" He asked. I blushed once more and showed him my notebook. "Why are you so red? Are you okay?" I nodded but saw the little smirk on his face.

"So, um, j-just answer those questions on the board and I-I'll check if it's correct." He nodded and began solving the questions on the board.

He soon finished it and I checked it. I frowned and marked them all wrong. "Hey Scorpio, meet me after school, okay?" I shut his notebook and ignored his questioning face. "Pay attention Scorp, we don't want me teaching you the rest of the day only." And it came out wrong, but I did it purposely. I smiled when I saw his face and neck turn into crimson red, goal complete.

After school, I patiently waited for Scorpio to walk out of the door. It was raining very hard and I was only wearing my hoodie. When I saw Scorpio walked out of the doors, I ran to him to tell him what I meant earlier. But unfortunately, I forgot that I was running on smooth concrete and my foot slipped. Later I knew it, I fell in front of my crush. How lucky am I?

Instead of my back hitting the ground, soft but firm arms wrapped around my waist. I recognized it as Scorpio's and immediately blushed, he whispered one word that described our position

"Cliche." Which it is.

It's so cliche and unoriginal but meh.
