Ten

He felt a soft hit from his sore back followed by an earful nag by his best friend.

"Come on dude, you still have to go to school!", Johnny, who was throwing pillows at Ten, nagged.

Ten only replied with a low grumble and tucked himself deeper into the layers of blankets he had pulled over himself.

"No.", was all Ten could say.

The male had spent his entire night soaking his pillows with his salty tears.

He was THAT bummed about the fact that he couldn't get a chance with his crush.

Ten felt like his heart was in a million pieces and even if you spent years piecing it back together with super glue, it'll just crumble and fall into a zillion more pieces.

"There are other guys out there, Ten!", Johnny sighed as he tugged a layer of blanket of Ten.

"And you can only look for them if you wake the fuck up and get your ass to school.", he added as he pulled another layer blanket of.

"Get your fugly hands of me you scumbag!", the younger yelled.

He didn't want to go to school at all. He didn't want to see Taeyong with his possible crush being happy together. He want to see Taeyong, even though he wanted to deep inside.

What was so good about Taeyong's crush anyways?! I am way hotter then him or her, way cuter, way more cheerful and definitely better.

But Taeyong likes them instead.

"Why must Taeyong like that stupid bitch and not me?!", the male yelled again as he burst out of his layers of blanket.

Tears were already dribbling down his porcelain like face and his lips were frowning.

The taller only sighed and went closer to Ten to pull him into his tight bear hug.

"Don't worry, you'll find someone better."

Taeyong

A sore groan left his lips as his arm wandered aimlessly around the table by his bed. His hands finally grasped onto his cellphone and tugged it closer to his face.

7:30am

"Fuck this.", Taeyong whined under his breath and tossed his cellphone back to the table by his bedside.

He pulled the thick cozy blanket over his shivering body and closed his sore eyes. Just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard a loud book from his room door and groaned louder.

"Wakey wakey!!!", Lucas boomed.

Taeyong swore that Lucas' voice alone could be mistaken as a thunder roaring.

"Leave me alone."

"No way! If I do, you would stay in your room for like, the whole week! And besides! You have school today."

Taeyong didn't want to bother to argue back so he just sighed and lazily dragged his body of bed.

"That's the spirt!"

All Lucas got in return from Taeyong was an icy cold stare and an annoyed sigh.

The whole day for Taeyong was rather tiring. Since Ten and him sat right beside each other, the both of them felt this rather awkward aura around each other.

Taeyong tried to start conversations to make it less awkward but Ten kept answering back with one word answers.

Finally it was recess time and Ten dashed out of the class without a single word and Taeyong went his separate ways.

He didn't felt like eating or doing anything in general so he sat on the stairways near the canteen and scrolled through his phone.

"Oh... You're already here.", Taeyong heard a voice spoke.

He looked up to see Ten holding a blue lunch box in his hands.

"I'm sorry, I'll get going now."

"Wait!"

Ten stopped in his tracks and looked over to Taeyong who was already slowly approaching him.

Ten felt a pair of warm arms wrap around his slender waist and warm breaths tickled down on his nape.

"I may sound selfish but please give me a chance.", Taeyong mummers under his breath and shut his eyes tight.

He pulled Ten closer, as if afraid to loose the male in his arms.

"W-what?", the smaller male stumbled with his words as he tried to make out what had just happened.

"I actually like you, like a whole lot. You're probably together with Johnny but I like you too much to let you go, so please just give me a chance."

"Okay."

A wide smile plastered onto Taeyong's face as he hugged Ten tighter into his strong chest.

The older pulled back slowly and blushed.

Ten was extremely pretty up close.

Bright red and pink painted both males' faces as they stared at each other longer then intended to.

They both shut their eyes and their lips pulled closer and closer to each other like magnets.

And then....

"Taeyong!"

Taeyong could feel a pair of arms grabbing and shaking him violently.

"What the..."

He looked around him.

He was laying down uncomfortably on the stairs and drool covered his entire face.

He looked up to see owner of the voice and the one who shook him, which was Doyoung, staring at him worriedly.

"What the fuck dude! Recess was over like half an hour ago and Jaehyun and I searched everywhere for you!", Doyoung nagged and nudged Taeyong to get up.

He felt Doyoung's words struck him like lightning as he rushed to get to his feet.

His whole body ached as he dashed back to class, Doyoung was right at his tail.

Taeyong burst into the classroom, catching everyone's attention. Everyone but Ten.

"Well then. Mr Lee, care to explain?", Mr Chen growled under his breath.

"I'm sorry, sir. Promise it'll never happen ever again!", Taeyong said as he bowed his head down.

"At least you're not skipping lessons. Go back to seat."

With that said, Mr Chen turned back to the board and carried on with his teaching.

Taeyong slowly walked back to his seat beside Ten, his head kept low.

He could feel everyone's stares on him except for Ten's.

The smaller was writing down notes diligently into his note book and all Taeyong did was embarrass himself.

Each growing day, my ability to write decreases drastically lmao
