Chemistry ~ Ma Jiaqi

"Wanna pair up with me for the Chemistry Class?" I heard Jiaqi ask as I wore my lab gown.

The teacher told us to go to the Chemistry lab with full equipment along with our pens and worksheets. The teacher also told us to find a pair.

"Hm, sure." I gave him a tight lipped smile as I put on my surgical gloves. "I wonder what activitythe teacher has in store for us today."

"You sure love experiments." He commented. We went out the room like everyone did and went to the Chemistry Lab. We sat down beside each other on the stools. As the class had started, we began to get the lab equipment needed for the experiment and started cleaning each glassware using the wash bottle.

"Since you all have answered the worksheets I gave you, I will now be giving you a project. This project is pretty easy so I want it to be passed the day after tomorrow. This is to be done by pair so it will be a lot easier." As the teacher continued to explain what we have to do, Jiaqi and I enlisted the materials needed.

As Chemistry is our last subject, we went back to our room to fix our things. "Jiaqi, will it be fine for your parents?"

"Of course." He smiled as he slung the straps of his bag over his shoulders.

After folding the lab gown neatly, I slung the straps of my bag over my shoulders as well and embraced the cloth. "We have to buy the materials first. My mom would be home late so it will be fine."

"You still have to tell your mom about it." He said and flicked my forehead.

I like it when he nags me. It's kind of... nagging someone you love the most in such a cute way. But I know he doesn't like me more than a friend. I like him, yes, but this guy over here is the type of guy who focuses on his studies first before his love interests.

"Fine, fine. I will." We went out of the room and put my lab gown in my locker.

We went to a craft store to buy the materials we need and then went to his house. "I'm home." He said and took off his shoes. "Wait here." He whispered at me.

I just stood there with a paper bag in my hands.

"Son, you're back." I heard his mother say. Maybe they talked for a while. I don't know.

After a few moments, he came to me with frog slippers. I mean, slippers with frogs imprinted on each. I wore it after taking off my shoes and greeted his mother and father.

"Ah, would you like some snacks?" 

"No, thanks, Mrs. Ma." I really would like some snacks, but my shyness got the best of me.

Jiaqi took my bag and guided me upstairs to his room. A puppy suddenly popped out when we came in his room. He knelt down to baby the puppy. I just watched them in awe. He's so cute mumbling things to his puppy with smiles.

"So, let's start?" He asked as he stood up to face me with the puppy in his embrace.

"Sure." I smiled and started to pet the puppy.

"Unfortunately I only have one seat. Let me go get another downstairs." He said and passed me the puppy as if it's a baby.

As he closed the door, I went to his study table and sat on the chair while playing with the puppy. As soon as he came back, we started doing the project. We had a lot of skinships and there would be times that we're too close to each other.

While doing the project, I wanted to randomly ask questions because he looks too serious doing his task. "Hey, Jiaqi, what type of girls do you like?" I asked while cutting papers.

He stopped what his doing and looked me in the eye. A few seconds have passed and all he said was, "Huh?"

"What's your ideal girl?"

He just hummed and went back to work. Maybe he won't answer it. It's fi-

"Someone who's shorter than me. I'd prefer a cute girl. Maybe someone who's a bit childish and mature at the same time."

He continued talking about his ideal girl and all. I'm the total opposite of what his ideal girl is. 

"- in short, I'd like someone like you." He said like it's nothing.

It may seem like it's nothing for him,ut I'm blushing here like there's no tomorrow. What if I confess to him now?

"Well," I started. "What if I told you I like you?"

He just took a glance at me before chuckling and went back to work. Maybe it's a no then.

I decided to stop dropping questions and just focus on working. Shortly after that, we've finally done the project. We felt so happy that we high-fived. I was about to retreat my hand but then he intertwined his fingers with my hand.

"What if I told you I like you too?"
