Welcoming ceremony? Shit, I forgot about that thing. Who's that girl again? She's gonna ask Yeonjun to be her partner?

"Choi Yeonjun," the girl call out his name, what's her name again? Hwang Yeji?

"Would you like to dance with me at the welcoming ceremony?"

My heart beats faster. My anxieties creeps inside of me, waiting for him to answer. I looked at him intensely.

"I..." he wasn't so sure yet.

He then traveled his eyes at the crowd. Roam around, looking for someone. Then I know that someone he's looking for is. When he found me and our eyes met. My heart beats even faster and I got more anxious.

I could even felt electricities at the point of my fingers.

But the look he gave when he locked eyes with mine looks different. It looks gloomy. Why the hell he looked at me with that look on his face? Did he felt guilty? But I'm—

"Yes," he answered.

The world suddenly stopped. Everything moved very slow. My heart felt like being stabbed by thorns of roses. Is this jealousy? Is this what Yeonjun felt before? No wonder why he protested. I don't like it either.

Furious and jealousy sparks in my eyes when I looked at him. But do I have the rights to be mad? Because I was probably the reason why he said yes. I shot an arrow and it aims back at me.

Yeji got so excited. She pulled Yeonjun in to a hug. Wrapping her arms around his neck. Smiling. Even though Yeonjun didn't hug back.

The crowd went crazy and everyone clapped their hands together for what they thought a phenomenal moment. Even the senior who saw it was smiling happily. Everyone had no idea, I am he's mate.

But some part of me is telling me that this isn't the right time to feel like this. Since I am the one who's to blame for, not Yeonjun.

I shook my head, push my feelings away and walk out from the crowd.

I'm tired. It's been a really long day. It's probably the best if I walk away. Vampires don't need a lot of sleep. But it's hours till the sun rises back from its resting spot. Perhaps I should rest too.

Who knows I might need some energy for what ever will happen tomorrow.

All day long I've been thinking on how to apologize to Yeonjun. I know he could read my mind, so he must've knew I wanted to say sorry. But still, that doesn't feel like the proper way to say it.

But the thing is, every time we passed through each other at the hallway, I had a slight panic attack and hide away. Which is also useless, he could smell my scent, felt my presence, and hear my thoughts. So why the heck am I playing these stupid games?

I never really thought of anything but to learn in this academy that I forgot that there is still something called 'Welcoming Ceremony'. It's basically where the new students receive an official greeting from the academy.

It's nothing but dances and speeches. So I never really thought it was something to worry about. But my mom had always been so excited. She saved money just to pick the right dress for me.

My dad on the other hand, thought the same. And that's been their bickering topic for the whole week. Guess I know where my attitude came from.

"I know you're not comfortable in skirts, that's why I got you the dress that made you look badass."

That's what she said when she showed me the dress.
