she groaned as she felt the pain and her head spin as she sat up from one the clinic's bed. she squinted her eyes closed and massaged her temples to ease the pain and dizziness she's feeling.

❛❛you're awake. finally❜❜ hearing a voice of a guy she snapped her head to the entrance of the clinic where she heard the voice.

the fck is he doing here? she raised a brow at him with her hands placed on the bed for self support ❛❛sir?❜❜ the fact that kun looked kinda pissed lowkey scared her but she seemed to be really good at not showing it.

kun had his arms crossed across his chest, giving her a knowing look ❛❛i thought you were absent.... for some unknown reasons.❜❜

❛❛i-i am!❜❜ she smiled nervously. kun comes closer to her, giving her a look.

❛❛oh really?❜❜ maybe going to the clinic was indeed a bad idea, she couldn't also blame ahri who she told to give the file to kun earlier, she was the one who told ahri what to say if he does ask why it wasn't her who handed it to him ❛❛mind explaining why you're here then?❜❜ kun composed himself with his hands on his pockets, still giving her a look.

joly swore she could feel her heart beating so fast that she could even hear it, it was like it was about to explode from her rib cage ❛❛w-well.. i was- uhm, i was...❜❜

kun patiently waited for her complete response, knowing she'll give in telling him something like why exactly ❛❛well?❜❜ he raised a brow at her and was yet about to speak when someone suddenly sprinted inside.

❛❛j- babe?❜❜ what? joly was confused. the guy who had sprinted inside quickly went to joly's side ❛❛are you okay, what happened?❜❜ he asked face full of worry.

thank god, joly thought to herself and smiled weakly, ❛❛i'm fine, ma-❜❜

❛❛can anyone of you, would care to explain something?❜❜ kun interrupted, he looked kinda pissed though. and the fact that he himself was eyeing the guy who suddenly sprinted inside kinda make it look like he's jealous, or is he? ❛❛yes, mark?❜❜ he turned to the boy who was slightly raising his hand.

mark gulped down his saliva, ❛❛i'm sorry sir, i'm the reason why she came her.❜❜ kun raised his brow at him and motioned him to continue which mark nodded his head at ❛❛i kinda left my thesis at her house which will be passed later on. i headed to her house earlier to check on her, also to fetch the thesis although...❜❜ he stammered

❛❛although..?❜❜ kun questioned

❛❛when i arrived there, one of her roommates said she had left to school to hand me the thesis and uhm, mizune kinda did told me what was what...❜❜ he dramatically turned to joly and caressed her hand and smiled ❛❛i shall take you home.❜❜

joly badly wanted to push his hands and face away from her but she had to keep up the act to escape from this history teacher of theirs. mark helped her up from her bed while kun silently eyed the two with arms crossed across his chest ❛❛we'll get going now sir❜❜ mark smiled to the older ❛❛i promise she'll be back at school once she's not ill anymore❜❜ kun could only nod his head and watch the 'couple' head out from the clinic.

once they were completely out from his sight he sighed heavily and sat down to the bed joly was laying down earlier, one of his hand massaging his temples ❛❛this is stupid, qian kun.❜❜

💘

❛❛you really are sick, aren't you?❜❜ mark asked, talking a glance the younger girl for a split second before having his eyes fixed on the road.

joly quickly snapped out from her deep thoughts upon hearing mark's voice ❛❛h-huh? uhm, i guess❜❜ she answered.

the two we're already in their way to mark's motorcycle, which was actually kinda near by the enchanted lake. joly wanted to ask why it was parked there when it could be just at parking lot near the gymnasium.

joly tripped but before her body could fall to the ground, mark had pulled her by the waist. there faces was a few inches away, both of them could hear each other's hearts beating loudly like it was about to burst out from their rib cage.

after a few seconds, they stood straight and started looking everywhere. it was awkward indeed.

mark laughed, putting a hand then curling it a bit on top of his nose. his actions had catch the younger's attention, she raised a brow at him

❛❛wh-what's funny?❜❜ she stuttered out trying to look intimidating.

mark badly wanted to pinch her chubby, soft cheeks- snap out of it, mark ❛❛nothing, it's just that..❜❜ the more she tried to look intimidating, the more he found it cute ❛❛nevermind❜❜ he frowned with a small smile.

joly watched him as he placed himself to his motorcycle and wore his black helmet ❛❛let's go?❜❜

she smiled back at him ❛❛thanks.❜❜ she took the helmet he had for her and positioned herself at the motorcycle, just behind mark.

❛❛don't mention it.❜❜ he started the engine and looked back at her ❛❛hey, might as well hold tight on me.❜❜

joly raised a brow ❛❛what fo-❜❜ before she could even finish her sentence, mark quickly started to go in a fast pace ( idk how to really say it ya'll- ), she shrieked despite of it being so sudden and before she even knew it, she already had her arms wrapped around mark's waist tightly while closing her eyes trying to hide herself.

you can't blame her though, it's her first time riding this kind of vehicle. mark on the other hand couldn't help but chuckle at her reaction as he continued to drive her back to her dorm.
