The next two periods went by slower then the others.

I know it's not because I don't like the subjects. I enjoy music and language arts is alright. It just felt not as exciting as it was earlier.

Ah.. Where's the cafeteria?

Hm..

I walked throughout the halls. All I know is that it's on the first floor.

Ah, it has to be through here! It's really noisy and I hear a lot of chit chatting behind the door. I know for certain no teacher would allow this level of volume in their classroom.

I pushed the door open and walked inside.

"Oh, hey, Yoonie, over here!"

I looked around the cafeteria room. It sounded like Tae, where is he?

Hm..

"Got 'cha!"

"Ah!"

I jumped at the person behind me.

Oh, it's Tae.

"Oh, it's just you.. Haha."

I laughed off my startled state.

"Oh, did I scare you too much? Sorry, sorry!"

Tae started.. Bowing? Why?

"Huh? Why are you bowing to me?"

"I was just told to do that if I ever do something bad to someone."

He lightly smiled and rubbed the back of his neck.

Ah, is he embarrassed?

"Oh, no no no, it's okay! Don't worry about it!"

"Ah, I'm really sorry though!"

I took his wrist and we started walking down the hall towards the school yard.

"Don't stress about it! As my old friend said,'let it rain, and clear it out.'"

"Eh? I haven't heard that one before?"

"Me neither, but it means basically to let out all of your bad emotions and clear your mind! That's what he told me, at least."

"Oh, he sounds really cool!"

"Mhm. He was really cool."

"Was?"

"He moved, I don't know how he's doing now, but I'll always hope for the best for him."

"I see, you're really cool too!"

"Ah, really?"

"Mhm! The coolest!"

"Thanks! I think you're pretty cool too!"

He smiled at me brightly, making me smile back.

Ah.. He's not just the coolest. He's also the cutest.

"Hey Yoonie, let's exchange numbers-"

"Yoongi! Hi there!"

Some random girl walked up to us. She had a few other girls behind her at a distance.

"Eh? Oh, hi there."

Oh, wait a second! She's the one I bumped into earlier today!

"Oh, it's you! I remember you from first period!"

"Oh, you remember me?"

She sounds a bit too excited talking to me.. Why is she so happy to talk with me?

Wait a second, is her face usually this red? Why is she blushing?

"Yeah, sorry about that by the way."

"Don't sweat it, it's fine, I'm just fine too!"

I smiled at her. Why is she blushing even more? Her face just got even more red.

"That's good to hear. I'm going to go now, I'll see you around."

"Ok, see you too!"

She smiled a bit too happily as she waved me bye. I took Tae's wrist and started walking again.

"She seemed really happy talking with you!"

"Ah, I noticed. I wonder why, though."

"I mean, she's talking to the one and only Min Yoongi. Of course she'd be happy."

"I'm just a transfer student though. What's so special that people treat me like some prized position?"

"I honestly don't know."

"They don't even know me. God, this is like back in Daegu."

"Hm? How so? When I was in Daegu, I always got bullied."

"Really? No one ever touched me. I didn't have any enemies surprisingly."

"Woah, how cool!"

"You think?"

"Yeah!"

"Thanks."

I smiled at him. Not that I wasn't already smiling, but I smiled wider at him.

"Hey, your smile's pretty!"

"Ah, really? Thanks."

I looked away from him. I don't know why, I just did it. It was on instinct.

I also felt my face heat up quite a bit.

Is this what it feels like when you're falling in love?

It feels weird.
