The Love of Blood and Magic

six

jaemin sighed as he walked through the forest. the forest usually made him happy as soon as he walked in it but right now he was trying to sort through all his feelings and was confused as heck. "Why can't i be a normal person with a normal life?" he sighed in his head and kicked a tree. that didnt do anything except make him more angry and hurt his toe.

"fuck you!" he yelled at the tree, glaring at it.

"that's not very nice to say to the tree," a voice said and jaemin turned around to see one of the most beautiful people he had ever seen. 

"W-who are you?" jaemin asked.

"I'm xiaojun, i'm in some of your classes and i think we're around the same age," xiaojun said "you're jaemin."

"How do you know my name?" jaemin asked another question, very confused on where this conversation was going and how this person knew him so well.

"Well you and one of your friends, the sandy haired fairy, are quite loud sometimes so I found out your name that way." 

"umm..." jaemin said not knowing how to respond to that. 

"Well i probably should get back to school before my boyfriend starts wondering where i am. I'll see you around!"  then xiaojun turned around and disappeared into the forest. 

after xiaojun left jaemin sank down next to a tree and sat in the sunlight absorbing its warmth. He felt his eyelids grow heavy and didn't remember anything else until he woke up to a voice saying "You have been sleeping for a while."

"Go away," jaemin mumbled not opening his eyes. "Why does that voice sound familiar?" jaemin asked himself but no one came to his mind with him still being half asleep. It didn't sound like haechan, the voice was to deep. 

"Wow, i never thought i'd hear those words come out of your mouth when you're talking to me," the unknown creature said. Jaemins eyes shot open after he heard those words and he turned his head so fast that he almost got whiplash.

"Jeno? What are you doing here?" jaemin asked in shock.

"Hmm... well i had nothing to do so i went for a walk and found you sleeping here."

"Yeah but why'd you stay here?"

"Because you were so pretty sleeping with the sun shining down on you like that," jeno replied, then realizing what he said he whipped his hand over his mouth his eyes going wide. Then he turned around and ran off into the forest. Jaemin paused for a moment then took off after jeno and caught up to him grabbing his wrist

"Jeno! Why did you run away?" 

"I-i don't know," jeno said "I panicked i guess."

They stared at each other for a moment then jeno blushed red and looked away shyly, taking a great interest in the canopy of leaves above them. Jaemin looked at his feet for a few moments thinking of something to say or do when he felt a finger brush against his chin making him look up. As he was looking up his lips were captured by jenos soft lips. They kissed, but quickly broke apart. Jeno cleared his throat and jaemin went cherry red. 

"Jeno..." jaemin said hesitantly 

"Yes?"

"Why'd you kiss me when you have a boyfriend?" jaemin asked and immediately regretted it. 

"shit, why'd you have to remind me?" jeno growled  

"I- umm... i don't know?" jaemin answered talking more to himself than to jeno. 

They awkwardly stood there again, jeno feeling conflicted and confused and jaemin still in shock that jeno had kissed him. 

"We should go back to the school," Jeno finally said after a couple of minutes if them sitting there in a very awkward silence.

"okay," jaemin said sadly not wanting this private moment to end.

They got back to school and were immediately greeted(more liked nagged and interrogated) by haechan wondering where jaemin had gone off to. Haechan was in the middle of interrogating the said jaemin when he noticed jeno standing awkwardly by Jaemin.

"What are you doing here?" haechan questioned glaring at the vampire.

"Umm... aren't i allowed to be standing here?"   

"what were you doing in the woods with jaemin though?" haechan asked another question. Jaemin tensed up at the question afraid that jeno would expose them to kissing in the woods.

"well he fell asleep in the woods so i woke him up and walked him back here."

jaemins tension eased out at those words and he relaxed letting out a breathe he didn't know he had.   

"Come on," haechan said and grabbed jaemins hand pulling him along away from jeno.

they had been walking for a few minutes in the corridors when they reached an empty spot. Jaemin braced himself for what he was about to say "Haechan..."

"What?" 

"I have something to tell you," jaemin started "We didn't just walk back to the castle from the woods, we also talked and then kissed."
