"His Promise"
"Do you have to hold her like that?" Kris asked, looking galled and dismayed on Chanyeol's possessive arm around Krystal's waist. It was a laid-back day at Hogwarts as the three went inside the Great Hall a couple of hours before lunch time. Earlier, Chanyeol and Kris were made to have a truce by Krystal. They were made to even shake their hands together and Chanyeol kept the act pretty good by even patting Kris's back in a friendly gesture. Krystal happily beamed at him while Kris hissed secretly for the pain from Chanyeol's friendly patting that got a little bit too hard.
"Why? Are you jealous?" Chanyeol smirked back, sounding like the most derisive person on earth. Kris just harrumphed and kept his knuckles inside his pocket as he walked with them, evidently seething but refusing to make Krystal notice. Chanyeol just smirked at him and even tightened his hold on his girlfriend while stirring her gently to the Slytherin seats. Krystal was too busy looking around nervously to even notice the tension between her two companions. The place wasn't packed with people because it wasn't lunch time yet and only those who were having their vacant hours, mostly those in their year and younger, were present. This didn't stop her apprehension however, since almost all the students residing in the place had looked at her when she entered being in Chanyeol's possessive arms. It was even as if she had just grown another head. She was even sure that those Slytherin girls who were whispering to each other were having a serious topic about her.
She never had a boyfriend before so she really wasn't sure how this concept worked. Just how long should people around you talk about your new relationship and adjust to it? If they did, then how long would they get used to it? Wouldn't it be awkward to them if they'll see that you were not together anymore? Would they even care a bit if you break up? Would they talk about the supposed length of your relationship, or would they just turn around and not care? How long were you supposed to be seen with your boyfriend? Would they think that you're not together anymore if you're not with him most of the time?
"Stal? You alright?" Krystal looked up from her temporary pensive state to see Chanyeol looking at her with concerned eyes. His brows were furrowed a little but they only added to the beautiful magnetic
brown and brown specks of his irises.
She was over-rationalizing things again.
Why should she even care about anything that people would say or think, anyway? When you're in love, it's your business and not anyone else's. It's something that you have that they don't. They should just deal with that. She smiled while allowing herself to get lost in his eyes. The magical hues on those orbs were just too enticing to even look anywhere else.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking on how lovely this day really is," she smiled at him. This made him smirk and kiss her temple while his hand was placed at the small of her back as they seated together. "This is making me sick," Kris murmured quietly as he seated on Krystal's left side. "Don't you have any classes today?" Chanyeol sounded a little snarky while he poked his head out to look at Kris from his seat. "As far as I know, you guys are pretty busy with all these NEWT level classes you're starting."
"I remember you still have Arithmancy now, Kris," Krystal nodded while reminding him. Chanyeol was smirking evilly beside her when she turned away to face her brother. The older bloke was definitely incensed now. Chanyeol would definitely keep a mental snapshot for this in his memory. Kris internally groaned as he stood up and fixed his bag. Before finally going away, however, he walked over towards Chanyeol and gave him a warning stare. The blonde just smirked tauntingly as his reply.
Oh how he loved this day.
"Tell me if he harasses you or something," Kris told Krystal before walking away infuriatingly, knowing too well not to let his younger sister answer anything because he'd only end up being at fault again. "He thinks I can't do anything good," Chanyeol shook his head innocently. He even looked convincingly problematic, as if he really cared of what her brother thought of him.
