Before Jisung could ponder the matter any further, he heard the metal scrap of the chair against the concrete floor beside him. Turning his head, he found Minho taking a seat, flashing him a brilliant smile.
Jisung felt his breath catch in his throat, warmth creeping up his neck and into his cheeks. “Um-” he stammered, unsure of what to say. “Shouldn’t you… like, be sitting with your friends?”
Minho chuckled lightly, shaking his head. “Nah, I don’t really feel like dealing with them right now. Besides, wouldn’t it help me to sit by my tutor?”
“Yeah- um- I mean, yes, I suppose so,” Jisung managed to reply, turning his attention back to his notebooks in an attempt to conceal the blush that was steadily spreading across his face.
“When are we gonna start these tutoring sessions, by the way?”
Jisung blinked, forcing himself to look up. “Well, when are you free?”
Minho hummed. “So, I’m busy most days after school, but I’m free on Fridays, aka today. If you’re not doing anything, maybe we could go to my place and get started then?”
Minho’s place? Minho’s place? Jisung’s mind raced with a million thoughts, most of which were decidedly inappropriate.
Jisung cleared his throat. “Sure.”
That was the only thing he could respond with, trying desperately to ignore the way his heart was racing.
