"Then I know to fall in love with you its just as naturally as when we're together"

1st Year of High School
Tuesday, Spring

JISOO
It's been like 2 weeks since the school started I got into class 1-2, still trying to cope up with the studies and some school clubs, and actually today is my class duty day, with one boy from my class. So apparently his name is Park Jinyoung, well it's only been like 2 weeks so I don't really know everyone in my class that well, and I think he's the quiet type of person because right now he's just standing right in front of the class writing down today's class diary while I change the water for the flower pot placed on the shelf at the back corner of the class.
After I change the water for the Pink Camellias in the flower pot, I tried to put it back on the shelf, and it's not easy because the shelf is a bit tall and even when I tiptoed myself still can't reach it. Until I realize a hand took the flower pot from my hand and put it on the shelf.
Stunned, I look at him for a while but after he put it on the shelf he walks back to the front and continue to write the class diary.

After today's class duty finished, we both walked home, he's in front of me right now do we like live in the same neughbourhood or maybe do we live close? Because from when we walked out of school until now we're walking to the bus stop we're not separating roads.
Arrived at the bus stop I waited for Bus number 364 to my neighbourhood, maybe we'll have different bus, why am I thinking to far that he might live in my neighbourhood.
The bus 364 is here, I get in the bus sitting on the right side the seat next to the window.
I like sitting on the window side because that way I could see what's going on outside, the road scenery and my way home, and some people said that it's a very dramatic seat, also you can lean on the window if you really tired and need sleep.
Then I felt someone sitting on the seat in front of me, it's Jinyoung..
Do we really live in the same area?
Even when he's sitting in front of me I could feel that It's awkward..
So I decided to try to maybe start a conversation, a basic conversation.
I try to tap his right shoulder lightly, "Park Jinyoung?"
He turns his head towards me with a face like he's asking "What?"
"You ride this bus too?" I bravely try to ask,
"Yes, My house is near the last stop of this bus"
Shocked, that's the very first word that comes into my mind, because that's also my stop..
"Why?" Jinyoung asked me, and my face is still stiffen and shocked.
"N-No-Nothing... *sigh*" he's still looking at me, and I can feel it its a gentle sight..
"Well... actually the last stop it's also my stop, I lived near that neighbourhood"
I finally regained myself and start to talk to him and tell him about my stop.
"Really? Well, that was unexpected, we'll be seeing each other often then" He smiled as he look into my eyes and that eye wrinkles he made. He's actually very nice guy, and seeing each other often doesn't sound so bad at all.
"Right, that'll be great" I smiled at him.

Since that day, we often meet on the bus either it's when we're going home or when we're going to school. We also got the same day for class duty so basicly we're a bit more of a close friend now, Jinyoung is very smart but he actually clumsy and well he doesn't really talk much so some girls find him really cool like that cold-eye guys in the drama they watch. He's also very witty and he's got a nice voice when he humm maybe he can sing?
So today we've got another class duty, as per usual I am in charge of cleaning the board and Jinyoung is in charge of writing the class duty book.
"Ah, right Jinyoung-ah we must return these books to the library" as I realize that there's still bunch of dictionary books on the teacher's table for today's English class
"Let's return it when we go home" Jinyoung replied as he look up to me from his seat.
After Jinyoung finish writing the class duty book, we prepare ourselves to go home, get our bags and also we share the books, one pile for Jinyoung and one for me, although I bet Jinyoung's pile is a lot heavier than mine.
"Ya Kim Jisoo, slow down I can't see anything in front you know"
"Haha You get the highest pile, even I can't see your face" I turn to his side and we meet each other's eyes smiling..
Arrived at the library we stack the books back to its shelf and Jinyoung told me that he wanted to spend sometime in to check on some books there and I also really love books so I think its ok.. I found one poetry literature book read it while seating in the reading corner they have in the library.
After reading it for a while, I notice that its already 5p.m we're reading for about one hour (school ends at 3, their cleaning ends at 4)
We should go home I thought, so I search for Jinyoung..
"Jinyoung-ah.. Park Jiny-"
As I search the nook and corner of the library near the window I see him standing there with a book on his hand reading it with dusk sky accompanying beside him.
There I thought how charming he is at that time, and it starts beating, redding, falling..
Unconciously I turn my back from him, hiding behind the bookshelf that is taller than me, my heart starts beating faster, I don't even know why and at the same time I'm afraid that he might notice me hiding here..
Truly a wonderful friendship or so I thought at first..
