JaeHwan had spent the entire night cramming up formulas and equations in his mind, and he looked like a zombie when he showed up at school the next morning. It was the first test of the academic year, and though JaeHwan knew that the first position of grade twelfth was his, he decided to be a little over cautious.

Unlike his best friend Hwang JungWon from 2-B who had partied the entire night at the bachelor party of his third cousin (JaeHwan was invited, he didn't go). JungWon probably slept with someone. He was glowing iridescent, and it hurt JaeHwan's eyes.

"How is it that you're still single?" JungWon smirked, reaching out to snatch the notebook out of JaeHwan's hands. "You like girls too, right? Want me to hook you up with one?"

"No thanks." JaeHwan gave his friend a dead stare and JungWon laughed it off.

"Why so serious? Don't tell me you have someone you like." JungWon folded his hands over his chest, eyes questioning JaeHwan. JaeHwan looked away quickly with a tinge of redness on his cheeks.

"Nothing like that."

"JaeHwan, you like someone?" San MaRoo perked up. The corners of his lips were surrounded by dusty crumbs of the toast he was eating, since he had skipped breakfast and came to school early for practise. JaeHwan and JungWon had done the same, but they had their breakfast in the cafeteria before coming to the classrooms.

The morning of the test was always a bustling one, and everyone was full of excitement. Everyone except Park SeokWoo, rank three of grade twelfth. People envied him for sleeping the entire day and still being in the top five.

"Why are you listening to this fool?" JaeHwan raised his voice and MaRoo backed away obediently. Despite being the tallest of the four friends, MaRoo behaved like a gentle giant.

"Keep calling me a fool," JungWon snickered. "But let's browse your dating history."

"It's nonexistent," MaRoo snorted.

"So is yours," JaeHwan threw a pointed look at MaRoo. MaRoo accepted defeat and went back to munching on his toast.

"Let's delve into the dating history of Kim JaeHwan," JungWon winked and ran his hand through his perfectly tousled hair. "A special lecture by Professor Hwang. Correction, very sexy Professor Hwang."

"Shut the fuck up," JaeHwan groaned and turned to SeokWoo for help, but he was busy sleeping.

"First, Kim JaeHwan kissed Song NaEun in grade tenth, two years ago." JungWon held up his two fingers. "Second, Kim JaeHwan was found going out of his way for a new student -"
