YuJin's P.O.V
Do you think he can hear my heart beating abnormally fast?
Instead of being the cocky jerk he usually is, he simply pushed my hand away.
"I'm capable of wiping my own face." He stated, coldly.
"Sorry." I apologised.
After he had finished eating I quickly stood up and grabbed my things.
"Thank you again for letting me stay, see you in school." I didn't dare make eye contact before leaving.
-
It was only period 2 and I was finding it extremely difficulty to concentrate on algebra at the moment.
I've had a really bad headache since I woke up, granted I haven't eaten anything since I left Jaebum's house this morning.
I felt another pang of pain in my head and almost groaned out loud but just about fought the urge.
Finally, the bell rang signaling that the students were free to go and eat lunch. I was just planning on eating a salad.
I slowly got up, almost tripping over and packed my belongings before making my way out of the classroom.
I felt a jolt of pain through my body, feeling myself being harshly pulled and slammed against the wall.
I dazily looked down to see two arms planted beside me before looking back up to see Jaebum's familiar cold face.
I was too weak to retaliate, so I tried to give him what he wanted. As I pulled the homework out of my bag, everything began to spin.
I looked up at Jaebum's confused face before the black splotches slowly took over all of my vision and my legs gave up.
-
oh fuck.
here I am again waking up in pain.
but this time everything is spinning.
fun.
I watch as everything around me finally comes into focus, though the pain continues to resound throughout my body.
I was in the school's medical room.
"shit." I mutter, trying to holster myself up before feeling a pair of familiar arms on me holding me down.
I looked up to my right to see Jaebum, I swear I saw the slightest hint of worry on his face but it disappeared as soon as it came.
"Why are you?-"
"I was the one that carried you here and therefore I was told to stay with you till you wake up" he explained.
I accidentally looked into his eyes, they were like dark magnetic orbs that held so much more in them.
I tore away and looked up at the ceiling.
"You have the option to get up and leave." I say.
"I know." He replies.
"So why didn't you leave?" I ask, annoyed with how he had the ability to make me feel weird inside.
"I wanted to see what stupid thing you did to make you faint" he said looking me dead in the eye.
I felt like a kid who was being scolded by their parent.
"I don't know" I half lie, looking away from his eyes; for some reason not being able to look at them and be dishonest.
I say I'm half-lying because I'm pretty sure it's because of my eating habits. I usually don't eat a lot these days because I'm trying to lose some weight.
But I wasn't going to tell him that of course.
"Ah! You're awake!" The school nurse skipped in with her permanent wide smile and bubbly attitude.
Damn does she not get tired.
"It seems like you have a very extreme malnutrition case. Ms Lee, may I ask, how is your eating schedule?"
"Good."
"Clearly not sweetie, do you usually eat breakfast?"
I sigh and shake my head.
"& what do you eat for lunch?"
"A salad...sometimes." I trail off, scratching the back of my head whilst keeping my eyes glued to my shoes.
"Dinner?"
"Sometimes?" I say though it comes out as more of a question.
"Sweetie you need to eat or events like this will become more frequent and your health will be in serious danger." She explains.
I avoid Jaebum's gaze yet I don't know why, I mean, it's not like he even cares.
Once she gives me some more advice and hands me some painkillers and water, I finally gather my stuff before slinging my backpack over my shoulder and heading home.
As soon as I leave the room, I feel a hand harshly grab my wrist. I look up to see Jaebum dragging me god knows where.
"Yah! Let go, it hurts."
I felt him slightly loosen his grip which surprised me.
But he only tightened it again, he must've come back to the realisation that he's a stone cold jerk who doesn't give a shit about what other people are feeling.
Great.
"Jae-"
I stop myself before I say his name, yet I scarce know why. It sounds so foreign on my tongue and it's almost like I'm afraid to say it.
It's like if I say it, we've established some sort of relationship. It's scary.
"Yah! Where are you taking me?!" I say a little louder, this time he finally turns a little and looks at me ; taking me by surprise as his dark eyes latch onto mine causing my breath to hitch.
"To eat."
Wait a minute, is Im Jaebum, caring about me?
"If this keeps happening who's gonna do my homework?"
& there it is.
I huff and it soon becomes silent, then the both of us realised his hand was still wrapped around my wrist and we pulled away from each other, clearing our throats awkwardly and keeping a good distance between one another.
The dainty little bell rang as we entered the cosy restaurant, we sat in a table and ordered. I was going to opt for something small before Jaebum decided to take the damn wheel and order me a whole full course meal.
"Yah! I can't eat that much!" I complain and he shuts the menu and glares at me.
"Who told you to go on a stupid diet anyways?" He growls, almost like he actually cared yet I highly doubt that he ever would.
"Who said I'm on a diet, I'm just watching what I eat..." I shift uncomfortably, chewing my bottom lip out of habit and playing with my hands.
"Not anymore, from now on you eat healthily and have a healthy eating schedule, understand?" He says.
I nod, lying which was easier to do when my head was down and I wasn't making direct eye contact with him.
I then felt his index finger put my chin up gently to face him.
Fuck.
Can my heart just relax before he hears it?
"Understand?" He repeats, this time quieter. His eyes delving into mine sending an electric chill down my spine.
I nod truthfully this time, not being able to lie to him like this for some unknown reason.
someone tell my heart to shut the fuck up.
