jihoon, soonyoung's best friend, was on his way to school. he was in a good mood, he greeted everyone who passed his way until someone came to ruin his morning.

   
"hey, lee! do you like soonyoung? cause you better don't! back off, he's mine." a girl yelled as he entered the school gates. jihoon shrugged her off and minded his own business.

   
people are crazy these days

   
the bell rang and the hallway started to get empty. he didn't hurry cause he was waiting for someone, he doesn't mind if he gets late because of him.

   
"lee!" a voice called.

   
a smile appeared on jihoon's face but he wanted to hide it so he put on his rbf. "you're late again, kwon. next time i won't be waiting for you" he warned.

   
"i doubt it, you love me so i know that you won't do that." soonyoung teased.

   
they walked into the classroom, right in time before their first period started. jihoon was minding his own business again when someone threw a paper at him.

   
he picked up the paper ball, something was written on it. "back of, dwarf" was written on the piece of paper. he crumpled it up, trying to stop himself from throwing it back to its owner.

   
luckily, soonyoung was seated beside him. he took the paper from his hands to see what it said. "hmm..." back of, dwarf"...you know, they should've learned how to spell first. they didn't even know the difference between "of" and "off"." soonyoung laughed, making the younger's anger and rage disappear inside of him.

   
"your cheeks are so cute" the younger pinched his cheeks. "it's so chubby, i don't want you to lose weight so you won't lose your chubby cheeks."

   
"i won't" soonyoung smiled.

   
the class continued, it was normal. no one bugged jihoon except for soonyoung. the bell for their break time rang, everyone went out of the room very quickly to not miss out on anything.

   
"sit down anywhere, i'll get it for us," soonyoung stated.

   
jihoon nodded, he looked around for a vacant seat but there were many students. they took every spot. it was very hard for him to communicate since he's an introvert.

   
"lee" he heard someone call his name, he looked at who it was. he saw wonwoo calling for him to sit down at a table where their friends have gathered around.

   
jihoon walked up to the table and took the spot beside seungkwan. seungkwan started a conversation, he made everyone laugh, forgetting about their problems.

   
jihoon was having the time of his life when someone poured juice on him, "sorry, i tripped" the female student laughed.

   
the students around his table went silent, they were afraid that something might unleash if anyone says something. they watched as jihoon tried to calm down, he clenched his fist as they watch in horror, waiting for something to happen.

   
he stood up from his seat and faced the female student, "what are you going to do, dwarf?"

   
he had enough, he was ready to risk his image just to hurt this girl in front of him. soonyoung ran from the other side of the cafeteria, he pushed the female student away, making her fall to the ground.

   
gasps were heard around the cafeteria. he placed the tray of food he was holding to the table and held jihoon's hand instead. "calm down," he said softly, drawing circles on his hand with his thumb.

   
"what are you doing? aren't you supposed to help me up?" the girl yelled.

   
"fuck off" soonyoung glared. her friends helped her get off the floor, she dusted her skirt and walked away.

   
"are you alright?"

   
"yeah, but my top is soaked with juice."

   
"i have an extra in my locker, let's go." he pulled him out of the cafeteria, leaving everyone in shock.

   
he gave him an oversized hoodie, that reached the younger's knee. it looked like a kid wearing "grown-up" clothes.

   
"you look like a baby" the older teased.

   
"thank you, kwon"

   
"for what?...oh, the clothes?  don't mind it, it's nothing."

   
"no...well, yes but not that...thank you for calming me down, that girl would've been dead by now if you weren't there to stop me."

   
"of course, we're friends after all"

   
friends.

   
i wish it was more.

   
jihoon smiled before going back to their classroom. soonyoung sat down beside him and made sure that no one will bug him again. it went well until the last bell rang, everyone started to leave.

   
"lee, our pe teacher needed my help, i'll be back in a few minutes. don't get into trouble, alright?"

   
"you know i can't promise that, kwon."

   
"i believe in you" soonyoung turned his back and ran to the office of their pe teacher.

   
jihoon sat down at one of the benches in the hallway. he plugged in his earphones and listened to music. but then someone dared to go up to him and pull out his earphones.

   
"listen here you little shit, did you think that you'll get away that easily? i got humiliated in front of everyone."

   
"serves you right" he scoffed.

   
she got closer to him and pulled his hoodie up, he had no choice but to stand up so soonyoung's hoodie wouldn't get ruined.

   
"what do you want?" he asked but instead of receiving a reply as an answer, he was pushed to the ground by a tall male friend of the girl.

   
"back off"

   
jihoon's rage started to build up once again, he found it so ridiculous that someone does this because of a "crush", it can be called "obsession".

   
he clenched his fist tightly, he was about to go for it when he felt strong arms around his waist, pulling him from behind.

   
"what did i say about not getting into trouble?" he placed his head on the crook of the younger's neck.

   
"she provoked me" he hissed.

   
"now you, what did i say about fucking off?"

   
she rolled her eyes, she turned her back but then turned around again when soonyoung called her name.

   
"and by the way, stop claiming me as yours. i'm already his," he said as he leaned into the younger's lips.

   
everyone's jaw dropped, including the teachers who high-key shipped them by making them partners all the time.

   
"but take what i said seriously, fuck off and leave him alone."
