If We Love Again [EXO Chen Fanfic]

"For the project, there will be no excuses for you all to not work with your seatmate. Are we clear about that?" The teacher asked after explaining everything about the project, once again.

"Ne." The students chorused.

"Since we've settled this...class dismiss! Please remember to hand in the project by next month, students." The teacher said and stepped out from the classroom.

As the teacher stepped out, Yoonhye laid her head on the table and sighed deeply. It isn't that she doesn't want to work together with Jongdae, it's just...she's afraid that he doesn't want it.

"Yoonhye." Howon called from behind. Yoonhye sat up and turned around, and asked, "What is it?"

Howon didn't say anything. He just looked towards Jongdae and mouthed, "You're with him?" Yoonhye shrugged and mouthed back, I don't have any choice."

"Kim Yoonhye." Yoonhye heard Jongdae called. She turned to him and found him looking at her. Yoonhye was lost in his eyes for a moment. She had never seen such pretty eyes.

Jongdae snatched his fingers in front of Yoonhye which caught her attention and said, "Tomorrow after school, library."

"What do you mean?"

"The project. Are you expecting to quit it?"

"Ah...alright." Yoonhye nodded.

As he saw Yoonhye nodded, he turned back and continue read his book. Yoonhye found that he has a habit to read books whenever he has nothing to do. But he doesn't really seems like reading it as he just flip the pages quite fast.

"Yoonhye." Yoonhye heard Howon called from behind. She turned around, while Howon just leaned closer to her ears and said, "I won't join you all going back home today. Jieun-ssi and I will have to discuss about the project."

"Noted." Yoonhye held up an OK sign and grinned at Howon. "Enjoy your date." She then told him in a low voice.

Howon just rolled his eyes at her, then said, "You'll be dead later."

Yoonhye stood in front of the library, peeking in, wondering had Jongdae went in already. She remembers that she saw him in the canteen not long ago, when she passed by there.

Well she's not sure if he's here already as she just went to collect her lunch from Sunggyu and went up to the roof and eat.

"Who are you looking for, miss?" She heard a voice asked from behind. She turned around and saw a guy in round spectacles. He's not really tall, and not really short, and he has a narrow shoulder and heart-shaped lips.

"Oh, nothing. I was just...looking for someone." Yoonhye flashed a smile at the person. "Hello, I'm Kim Yoonhye, a new student here."

"I've heard of you. I'm Do Kyungsoo, a librarian here. I'm on duty today, and the library isn't open yet."

"Ahh, I see. I'm here for someone." Yoonhye nodded.

"Who?"

"Kim Jongdae. Do you know him?"

"He's somewhere else. Come in, you should wait for him inside there." Kyungsoo said as he took out a bunch of keys from his bag and open the door of the library.

"You're Kim Jongdae's friend?" Yoonhye asked as she followed behind Kyungsoo, stepping into the library.

"Yeah, we are best friends, for years already."

"Then you must know him very well." Yoonhye mumbled.

"Of course I do." Kyungsoo replied. "I'm sorry if Jongdae is rude towards you. I don't know if you ever heard the rumor about him or not, but I'm really sorry for his attitude."
