Dark or Light

Chapter 12 - Scars

The weekend past by and today is now Monday. Not really in a cheerful mood today but at least I get to Knight.

No that I remember, I feel kinda bad for pushing Mark away for Knight. Then again, Mark doesn't need to go to the dance with me, he has Minhee. Is it alright to be jealous?

Now I'm in science class sitting alone at a table doodling in my sketch book listening to music. I hum to myself while doodling and made little triangles on the paper.

A figure beside me appear but I didn't feel like looking on whom it may be. The person was talking but my music was too loud that I couldn't hear what they were saying clearly. The person gently tap my shoulder and I pull out my earphone looking to see who it was.

Mark...

"You okay?" He chuckle at me and I rose an eyebrow staring at him then I look down at my sketch book. I was doodling Knight's name...

My eyes widen and I close the book quickly.

"I'm fine," I murmur and Mark shook his head laughing lowly. I slowly push away the book then turn my body to face Mark.

"Why did you go after Knight?" He ask. Why is he worried? He has a girlfriend. Mind your own damn business... Sigh. The jealously is getting to me.

"That is none of your concern," I said and put my earphones away into my pocket then cross my legs. "You should worry about asking Minhee to that dance," I took out my textbook and start to read a random page.

"She doesn't like activities like that," he said disappointed and place his chin on the table looking forward to the board. I blink and raise my eyebrow. Am I an asshole for not listening to him? Then again, he's taken and none to my concern. "I was hoping to go with you."

"Well I'm already going with Knight," I mumble and Mark look at me confuse. He sat up straight looking at me and put his arm on the table staring at me.

"I thought I told you to stay away from him!" He yelled at me in a whisper tone but I just ignore him. He sigh and rub his forehead. "He's not a guy you think he is," he was really frustrated and I brought my attention to him.

"You think I don't know that?" I said and close my textbook, and stood up from the table. "I know he's dangerous and an asshole, but I feel like there's more to him... Just mind your business with Minhee and don't worry about who I like," Mark blink and I stop talking. He stare at me.

"Like?" His voice crack and he seem sad. Like as if he fail at something. It was awkward silence then I clear my throat about to walk away. He grab my wrist and I look at him as he stare into my eyes. "Just because I'm letting you go, doesn't mean I'm giving up on getting you," he said.

He does like me... I could feel a smile forcing its self on my lips but I couldn't show it. I pull away my wrist and blush looking down, turning around so Mark couldn't see. The second bell rang and quickly walk away from him. My heart was racing and happiness rush through my veins. Does he really mean what he said?

Now I'm sitting in history class next to Knight but it's awkward right now and we're silence. We care about our own business and stay quiet while reading our textbooks. It was bugging me thinking that Knight might be the original Knight from the Dark or Light. Even if he was, that would mean the book was actually based off a true story. Unless Knight is weird enough to bring that story to life.
