Days in our lives

The Day I Fell in Love

I have been the quiet kid and I've never been part of the crowd. My love life, my social life. I don't have either of these. All I want is to be with myself and be happy. So, my hobbies play a big part in me.

As usual, I go on with the class. The teacher yells at the students who talk a ton every 5 mins. I hate coming to school for that one reason. When will I ever get some quiet time? The teacher has banned me from using my headphones, as one day I didn't hear her. I am sure I wasn't even wearing headphones at that time. Letting out a soft sigh I concentrate on the lecture.

Afterwards, I stay back in class to talk to the teacher and finish up my work. While I was busy doing my work, I hear footsteps approaching the classroom. Who could it be? I don't bother to look up and make eye contact with them, but instead, stare at the work I have on my table. I listen to the soothing voice of a male, talking to the grumpy teacher. He sounds very familiar... Never mind! I have to get rid of this work before I get home!

I sense someone looking towards me, but I let that feeling go away thinking it's the teacher, making sure that I am not on my phone... or use my headphones.

It's so weird when someone is watching you! Why did I just have to forget how to write!? I try to sneak a peek off my book to the teacher. Instead, I see a boy holding his book upside down with the teacher nowhere to be found. Weird.

For no reason at all, I get butterflies in my stomach. I hadn't noticed I was staring at him until he starts to hide his face with the flipped book in both his hands. A warm feeling on my cheeks quickly takes over me, causing me to snap my head back to my book.

In that short amount of time I got to notice the beautiful features of the boy. His yellow hair stops right above his angel brown like eyes. He also has a freaking jawline! Just like the boys in anime and mangas. He is just like my dream husbando.

Wait what am I doing!? Think straight Yerin!

Urgh! It's been a half-hour and I'm still sitting on the same damn chair. I feel like my butt's about to explode!

I hear a pair of heels clicking. I tear my eyes away from my work again, only to see the teacher, holding at least a dozen folders.

I hear footsteps from behind me and I try my best to ignore them. What will I do if he starts talking to me!?

THUD!

A sudden sound startles me and my head whips towards the sound. I see blonde peeking from behind the table next to me.

I instinctively stand up, worriedly looking over at the fallen body. My eyes widen when I notice that he has a bruise on his elbow. How could a mere fall like that give him such a large bruise? That's when I notice that he's staring directly at me. Oh shoot. I know exactly what's going to happen next... the teacher is going to ask me to take him to the nurse's off-

My head whips towards the teacher the minute I hear her squeaky voice. "Oh no! Jinyoung, are you okay!", she asked Jinyoung. Her head slowly turns to face me, when I realize I just promised her that I would take him to the nurse's office.

Why would I say such a thing!? I swear to God I feel like I could bury myself six feet under the damn ground.

"Wait! We're not going to the nurse's office."

"What?"

"You heard me. We're not going to the nurse's office. Follow me."

He suddenly grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards the art building. Why is he taking me there? I tried to free myself from his grasp but failed miserably. I eventually gave up and followed him. After a good five minutes of walking, we stopped in front of a pale white door. Isn't this the storage room in the school? We got into the pitch black room, filled with cardboard boxes. He placed his hands on my shoulders and pushed me down, making me sit on one of the boxes. He kept both his hands on my shoulders and didn't let go. I can feel my face burning red, i am so thankful its dark!

"So why are we here?"

"I have to tell you something very important."

"Which is...?", I asked, as a blush was threatening to arise from my neck.

"Uhm- I don't really know how I should tell you this but um..." he paused. I looked away, but he gently placed a finger under my chin, making me look at his beautiful orbs.

"I love you"

That's it.

That's when my life made sense to me.

That's the moment that led us to...

True love.
