Study Buddies • [Chanbaek]

Chapter 1

"Baekhyun-ah. Dude wake up,"

I lift my head as I feel someone nudging my arm. I give a blank stare.

"That guy is staring at you again," Kyungsoo whispers as he shoots a look to the other end of the room.

I look over and spot a handsome, tall guy with dyed brown hair quickly glance away.

I huff, "Let him stare," I drop my head down to my desk and close my heavy eyelids.

"I think he is interested in you," The boy suggests.

"Can I sleep please? Thanks," I moan at him, "I'm too tired to think right now,"

Kyungsoo gets the hint and leaves Baekhyun alone.

5 minutes later

*Nudge* *nudge*

"WHAT!" I yell as I shoot my head up with anger, only to find several heads turned towards me.

"I just wanted to tell you that the teacher arrived," Kyungsoo whispers, trying to hold in his laughter.

The tall boy from across the classroom looked over at Baekhyun and smirked before bowing his head down. Laughing quietly to himself.

"Yes Baekhyun? Do you have something to say?" The teacher asks wide eyed as she sets her laptop down on her desk.

"Sorry ma'am, my bad," I smirked as I gave a sarcastic answer. A hoot of laughter came from the students in the class.

"Ah Beakhyun, you always have to be the class clown don't you? Do you need to be excused?" The teacher asks, clearly disapproving of Beakhyun's attitude.

I shake my head.

"Well then, can we start the lesson without having you interrupt?" She asks.

"Yuuuuuup, let's go teacher, I wanna learn something," I joke before once again placing my head down onto my desk.

The students hold onto their noses trying not to chuckle. The room was now filled with deflating balloon sounds that start echoing from wall to wall.

The teacher, clearly annoyed, rolls her eyes and turns to the blackboard, lifting her arm to write an equation.

55 minutes later

I lift my head up slightly and fix my gaze on the white clock that's hanging above the entrance door, "5 more minutes," I sigh as I read the long hand. Placing my head back down onto my forearms, I glance over at the boy sitting across the classroom.

He's still staring huh? I think

I feel my pale cheeks start to turn a soft red as I spot him biting his lip while eyeing me up and down.

"Hey Kyungsoo," I sit up and lean over to whisper into his ear.

"Yeah, what is it?"

"Do you know that guys name?" I ask quietly.

"Emmm," he pauses for a moment and tilts his head towards the ceiling. He thinks for a few seconds before replying, "Chaaa... Oh what was it? Ah, I remember, Chanyeol," he pauses and asks, "Why?"

"Oh nothing I just wanted to know," I give a simple answer, expecting a simple reply back.

Kyungsoo turns himself towards me and looks me dead straight in the face, squinting his eyes, he observs my expression,

"I think you like him,"

"Are you gay?" He questions.

"What? N-no I'm not. I-I was just wondering," I stutter, surprised at the sudden personal question.
