Minghao felt strange.

Ever since he caught Junhui singing and playing piano in one of the empty practice rooms, he had this strange unexplainable feeling in the bottom of his tummy. Was it because he spoke to someone new? No that couldn't be. He spoke to tons of new people every day, since he was this popular.

Then why did he felt so weird?! It was so unexplainable.

He felt so nervous while talking to Junhui the other day. He saw him before, in Math class. The straight A student. He never even thought about picking up an actual conversation with him. Mostly because he was scared that Junhui could only look down at him. He had everything that Minghao wanted.

He didn't even know it was Junhui who was producing that angelic voice until he peeked around the corner. Only to see a gorgeous young guy, throwing all his emotions in his voice.

Gorgeous young guy?

What actually was that. He never thought a guy was actually pretty until he met Junhui. It confused the hell out of him. Maybe it was the way he got nervous and shy, when he entered the room. Or maybe the sparkles in his eyes when they started talking. Up close he had this beautiful face..

Minghao couldn't explain his feeling, and he wasn't planning on telling anyone. Afraid that everything could go wrong (again).

He knew the best way was to hide his feelings, to stay safe from everything. But after all, he wanted to get closer to Junhui. He wanted to know more about him. More like, everything! Why was he suddenly so interested in this stranger? Who had beside the emo guy, no friends at all. Who rather spend his day making his homework than actually socializing. But maybe he was wrong. Maybe this Junhui was a totally different person then everyone thinks he actually is.

So as he got to school, he decided to walk up to him and start a conversation.

"Dude. Are you really going to talk to him?" Mingyu asked, eyes filled with disbelieve, when Minghao told his best friend a lie about how he met Junhui on his walk home. He wasn't planning on telling him what actually happened.

"Yeah. He's a really nice person!" Minghao tried to sound as happy as he could, just so Mingyu would accept it. Not that it was that hard. Mingyu is a really nice and caring person, even though he might seem a little cold when you first see him. He knew that if he played it right, Mingyu would easily accept them.

Mingyu cleared his throat and scratched the back of his head. "What about that emo guy? Maybe they could..eh.. join us in our break?"

Mingyu seemed shy? That was new to Minghao. It almost looked as if Mingyu wanted them to join them in their break.

Minghao followed Mingyu's gaze, wich landed on the dark haired 'emo guy' he didn't knew the name of. And suddenly he realized it! Mingyu's heart eyes told Minghao immediately.

"Are you interested in him?" Minghao asked him straightforward, what flustered Mingyu and lit his cheeks up. "..Well, I mean.. he.. eh .. he's fine."

Minghao was aware of the fact that Mingyu was gay. Even though he was a really good looking guy, and a lot of girls were crushing on him. But he wasn't interested in them. But the fact that Mingyu had feelings (if he could actually call them real feelings) for Junhui's best friend made his heart flutter a little.

Where did these feelings come from?

It made Minghao feel weird, in some way. But he tried to ignore it. He wasn't planning on showing Mingyu his feelings. Let alone showing it to Junhui. What would he think?! They just met one day ago.

So as hard as he pushed it away, he walked up to Junhui. His heartbeat went up with every step he made.

"Oooh, so Minghao boy will notice you. Huh?" He stopped for a moment when he heard Junhui's friend say that. Were they talking about him? Did Junhui tell him? What was happening.

No! He thought to himself. Just keep going you're almost there.

Softly he grabbed the back of the shirt Junhui was wearing, pulling it a little to get his attention. Junhui jumped a little, so he let go. The eyes of the elder widened when he turned around, what flipped Minghao's stomach.

He felt heat creeping up to his face when he noticed how close he actually was, but he managed to keep his feelings for himself.

"Hey Junhui!" He said instead, trying not to make a fool out of himself. ""M-Minghao! Hey!" He noticed Junhui stuttering a little. He must've really scared him by showing up and sneaking in on him from behind like that.

"We have math together, right?" Minghao tried to pick up an actual conversation, normal students would have. Perhaps it was just the first thing that crossed his mind.

"Yes, I thought so. You're early today!" Shit.. Did Junhui just made fun of him? Does he think it's weird he's late a lot?

What if he has a really bad view over me?

Suddenly Minghao started to worry about the way Junhui was looking at him. He knew he was a shame to the school. But he never paid attention to the opinion of other students, since he was really popular he knew that they wouldn't mind. But for some reason, he felt scared about the way Junhui thought about him. What's happening?

But maybe Junhui didn't mean it like that. He was probably making a joke, so he didn't felt that nervous. Minghao scared him after all.

"Silly! I decided to actually show up early today, surprise." He faked a smile, hoping that it truly was a joke and he just played along with it.

An awkward silence fell between the two of them, in which they just stared into each others eyes.

"So.."Minghao broke the silence, scared that Junhui would feel uncomfortable. "I heard there is an upcoming project, we have to pair up and stuff. So I was wondering if, maybe, only if you want of course, we can do it together..?"

He scratched the back of his head and immediately regretting asking it as he saw Junhui's eyes widen. Stupid, stupid, stupid... "Are you okay with that? I mean, how about the people who are going to see us in class together?"

"I'm okay with that! You're really nice, it can't harm the two of us, right?" Did he say it too fast? Was it obvious he wanted to work together? Was he being obvious at all?

Junhui didn't react. His gaze shifted from Minghao, to somewhere behind him, staring in the depth. What was he thinking about? Was he already regretting the deal they made? For some reason it drove Minghao insane.

Why did he feel this way? His feelings were so questionable and he didn't understood a single bit of it.

Suddenly the buzzer went off, which ment they had to go to their class. Only if Junhui could just answer him..

"Shall we go then?" Minghao asked, which seemed to wake Junhui from his daydream.

"Y-yeah, sure!"

They walked to class, still not knowing for sure if Junhui wanted to cooperate.

"And let's work together." Junhui added. Minghao felt a smile creeping up to his face. He didn't know why, but for some reason he felt released that he could work together with the guy he just met..
