You were late. If you ran a little faster you would make it in time. But NO. Luck wasn't on your side today. You slipped and fell on the hard cement. You were bleeding on your knee and people were staring at you weirdly but you didn't care. You got up quickly and limped the rest of the way. You ran into the school and to your class.
"___? Is ____ in to- oh there she is. You're late. Next time, detention." Mr. Byun said. He can be such a prick at times. You sighed and sat in your seat next to your best friend, Jongkook.
"Hey," he whispered.
"Quiet before he catches us!"
"Two new students today, just saying, no need to go good girl on me..."
You rolled your eyes.
"Ok class, two new students, please introduce yourselves," Mr. Byun said. A boy and a girl walked in. The girl introduced herself and hesitantly sat next to the grinning Jongkook. 'Must be his new prey' you thought. You looked up to see the new boy looking at you. You looked down quickly while blushing, for no reason.
"Hello, I'm Kim Minseok! You may call me Xiumin! Please take care of me!" He said while bowing. All the girls, expect the new girl, were staring at him like they were all mice and he was the last piece of cheese.
There were two seats left, one next to you and one next to the prettiest girl in class. You sighed knowing he'll choose that seat next to her. But what took you and the rest of the class by surprise is that he sat next to you.
"Annyeong!" Xiumin whispered. "Uhm.. Hi."
"What's your name?"
"____..."
"____... Hm... Its pretty.."
"Thank you..." you blushed and started to pay attention in class. You knew all the girls were giving you the death glare.
"___?"
"Hm?" you look over to Xiumin.
"You're bleeding on your knee..."
"I'm fine"
"But it looks bad..."
"Don't worry I'm fine... Just pay attention."
"You sure?"
"Yes, I'm 100% sure."
"___ and Minseok! Detention after school for talking!" Mr. Byun called out. You glared at Xiumin while he gave you an apologetic smile.
The rest of the day went by in a blur. All you remembered was that you tried to avoid Xiumin the whole day. You tried to pay attention to Jongkook's conversation with his friends about a date with the new girl but your mind drifted away to Xiumin. It was finally detention and you sat down. Xiumin came in a couple of minutes later and sat next to you.
"I have to go to a meeting so behave, no talking, no sneaking out, and clean." Mr. Byun instructed and left. You got up and started cleaning the board. You got your iPod out of your pocket and played a random song. You sang along unknowingly.
"You have a nice voice."
You jumped, forgetting Xiumin was still there.
"Shut up and clean." you instructed.
"How can I clean if I can't concentrate?"
"Why can't you concentrate?"
"Two reasons, one, your knee."
You looked down at it. It had some dry blood around the wound and it looks pretty bad. He got up and crouched down to your knee. "Hm.. Sit and wait a second." He ran out of the room. You sat in a chair and waited for about 10 minutes. He came back with a first aid kit and you watched him clean and bandage the wound.
"There all better now" he smiled and got up.
"Now the second reason?"
"The second reason is that a beautiful lady is in front of me and I can't concentrate when she was singing with such a beautiful voice. All I think about is how I want to go on a date with her but I don't know if she'll agree.. What do you think?" He looked down at you. You were speechless. You stared at him like an idiot for a good 5 minutes.
"Are you serious?"
"Do I look like I'm lying?"
"I don't know, I just met you so I don't know your lying face." you simply said. He chuckled.
"I'm not lying, I'm being serious." He looked sincere... So why not? "Ok." You got up and walked to the board and started cleaning it again. "You're serious? Not lying?"
"Do I look like I'm lying?"
"I don't know, I just met you so I don't know your lying face." You giggled.
"Copy cat." He handed you a piece of paper.
"Call me later, ok?"
"Okie dokie"
You took the paper and smiled. Mr. Byun walked into the class. "Kids you may now leave." Xiumin took his stuff and left. You bowed, took your stuff, and left. You put on your headphones and listened to music on the way home, but all you could think about was Xiumin.
