"Jiwoo? Are you sleeping?" Heejin asked. "Or are you still ignoring me?"

No answer, but turning to her side revealed a wide awake Jiwoo. Ever since Heejin came back, not a word had been spoken to her and she didn't know why. Multiple apology attempts took place, but no outcome, at least not a good one.

"I already apologized, plus you know I was busy the entire day," Heejin reasoned, her hand on Jiwoo's cheek.

Again, no response. It started getting on Heejin's nerves, but she refused to snap at Jiwoo.

"At least tell me why you're still mad," Heejin said.

Nothing, not even a little sound. With a loud sigh, Heejin rolled back to her side of the bed. They never slept on the same side, and quite frankly, Heejin missed sleeping in someone's arms.

"You spent the whole day with her?" Jiwoo quietly asked.

"Well, yeah," Heejin said. "Is that what this is about? Me and Hyunjin? Are you jealous?"

"A bit," Jiwoo mumbled.

"Why?" Heejin asked, flipping to face Jiwoo.

"Who wouldn't be? I mean, you use to like her and don't you think it's a bit fucked up to spend this much time with her?" Jiwoo said. "Plus, you're ignoring me for her. Not just one text, all of them."

"Jiwoo c'mon, we're not children-" Heejin started to say.

"Then tell me," Jiwoo cut in. "Do you still like her? Has it ever passed your mind this whole time?"

Heejin herself didn't even know. Every act up to now has been done out of compulsiveness, she never thought about it after. Now, she finally had a chance to acknowledge everything.

"N-No, why would you think that?" Heejin stuttered.

She was sure nothing was happening, and nothing was ever gonna happen. After all, that's what Hyunjin had been telling her.

"Are you sure? Because your stuttering," Jiwoo said.

"I'm sure," Heejin said with zero confidence.

"Honestly Heejin, I'm scared. I don't wanna lose you," Jiwoo said, hugging Heejin's torso

"Mhm," Heejin hummed as guilt welded in her chest.

Heejin sat at the library, trying her absolute best to do the math. To the close right, was Hyunjin simply there to assist Heejin if she was struggling.

For the past hours or so, Heejin had been glancing over to the reading Hyunjin. There was just something so fascinating about Hyunjin as a whole. More then ever, Heejin was intrigued. She hated it, she felt as if she was already cheating.

"Fuck," Heejin said, slamming her head to the table.

"Were in a library," Hyunjin said, moving closer to the table. "Move over."

Even though it had nothing to do with the work, Heejin moved aside to let Hyunjin see the paper.

"Dumbass," Hyunjin said.

Wrapping her hand over Heejin's, Hyunjin started redoing the equation.

"Y-You know, I could've just gave you the pencil," Heejin said, trying to hide her crimson face.

"Don't blush infront of me," Hyunjin said.

Not being able to look back up, Heejin proceeded with her work. Her mind was doing cartwheels. Slowly, Heejin inched her hand over to Hyunjin's and it was no surprise when Hyunjin took it.

"Gross," Hyunjin said, squeezing Heejin's hand. "Absolutely sickenin-"

"Jiwoo!" Heejin said, jumping out of her seat.
"W-What are you doing here?"

"I was just gonna pass by, but I saw you here," Jiwoo said, pulling out a seat infront of Heejin. "Hyunjin."

"Jiwoo," Hyunjin greeted back. "Long time no see."

"Mhm. So~~ what are you doing?" Jiwoo asked, leaning over to see Heejin's work. "My class doesn't start for a while. You don't mind if I stay for a bit right?"

"I guess not," Heejin mumbled.

As the time passed, the tension rose. To the left of Heejin, sat Jiwoo with their shoulders touching. On the other side, Hyunjin sat biting her finger, glaring at the two. Weirdly enough, Heejin found it insanely attractive.

"Well, I'm gonna go," Hyunjin said as she stood up.

"Huh? What if I need help?" Heejin asked.

"Ask your girlfriend, she's right there," A salty Hyunjin said as she walked away.

The rest of the afternoon, Heejin was left all alone. Nobody to help her, and nobody to keep her company ever since Jiwoo left. Packing her stuff, she made her way out the library.

Just before she left, she went to the bathroom. Inside, Hyunjin was washing her hands.

"Oh, it's you" Hyunjin said. "So did you get through the work?"

"Uh-huh," Heejin said as she checked the stalls one by one to see if anyone was inside with them, it was just them.

"What are you doing?" Hyunjin asked as she dried her hands.

"Please don't tell anyone," Heejin said. "I just really need to know."

"Tell anyone what?" Hyunjin asked.

"Just answer," Heejin asked.

"I mean, sure," Hyunjin said. "But what do you-"

Before Hyunjin could even say another syllable, Heejin had already threw her arms over her shoulders.

"Should I pretend like I don't know what's about to happen?" Hyunjin asked as she snaked her arms through Heejin's waist.

"Stop, your killing the mood," Heejin groaned, letting go of Hyunjin.

"...Am I just gonna wait until your rea-" Hyunjin started to say.

Hyunjin's thoughts were cut short when Heejin closed the gap. Looking down, Hyunjin's mind started going insane. She didn't know if it was real or all a dream.

"Close your eyes stupid," Heejin quickly said.
