The Scent of Your Blood

Chapter 60

(The next day)

Hongjoong was sitting in class next to Yunho, the two whispering to one another and giggling while lightly hitting each other which caught other peoples attention.

"Okay, okay, stop," Hongjoong giggled and playfully shoved the other who snorted which only made them laugh more.

"Jeong Yunho and Kim Hongjoong," the professor raised his eyebrows at the two, a smile growing on his lips. "Please concentrate on the lesson."

More students looked over.

"Y-yes sir," Hongjoong struggled to say without laughing but when his tall friend put on a serious face and saluted, it made him burst out laughing. His face was flushed pink and he shoved Yunho again, the other grinning.

"I hate you so much!" Hongjoong laughed as they walked out of class.

"You're the one that started it!" Yunho said and hip bumped the other which almost caused him to bump into another student.

"Sorry!" Hongjoong giggled and the girl just smiled, waving it off as she walked away with her friend who was laughing at the two males.

"Okay, I need to get going 'cause I'm meeting up with Mingi, see you later, hyung," Yunho hurried away and Hongjoong shouted, "have fun and remember to wear protection!"

People that were around looked at Hongjoong with amused expressions, others looking at his tall friend who turned around and put up his middle finger which only made Hongjoong crack up more. As he walked down the hallway, Minjun stepped in front of him, causing Hongjoong to bump into him and he glared up at the smirking male.

"I am not dealing with you, so fuck off," he went to step around Minjun but the other stepped to the side.

"So, you're still with him," he motioned towards the faint love bites on Hongjoong's neck.

"Yeah, I'm still with Seonghwa." He shoved past Minjun and quickly pulled his phone from his back pocket in his pants. He unlocked it and tapped on the contacts then scrolled down to "S." As he was about to tap on his fiancé's contact, he was roughly grabbed and shoved up against the wall, Hongjoong wincing when his head smacked against it.

"I'm not done talking."

"Well, I am!" He tapped on the number and tried getting away as he lifted his phone to his ear.

"Who are you calling? Is it that pathetic excuse you call a boyfriend?" Minjun snatched the phone away just as Seonghwa answered.

"Give it back, Minjun!"

"I don't think so." Minjun hung up and put the device in his hoodie pocket. By now, the halls were empty with no one in sight except for San and Wooyoung who had been passing by when they noticed the commotion. San glared at the male who wouldn't stop harassing his friend.

"I am going to kick his ass," the younger of the couple muttered and went to walk over to the other two when his boyfriend stopped him.

"Stay here, I'll handle it."

"No, Wooyoung, I'm dealing with this," San walked over and pushed Minjun away as he stood in front of Hongjoong.

"Back off," he lowered his voice and stood up straighter to appear more intimidating, though, he already was with that scary glare. Minjun chuckled and poked the inside of his cheek with his tongue.

"I suggest you leave before I put you in the hospital."

"I'd like to see you try," San grinned and stepped towards him. Hongjoong grabbed his forearm, pulling him back.
