a few days later

i was walking alone in the school garden, waiting for yuta who had once again a hour of detention. what had he done? oh, i wish he never told me...

this genius was fed up listening in class, so, when the teacher got out to do photocopies, he glued everything on her desk. every single pen, all the sheets of paper she had on it, and he even glued the keyboard and the mouse. Well, he is a genius. anyway, when the teacher found out it was him, she gave him a detention and more work to do, but he said he didn't care because seeing the teacher panicking and struggling to take her things was one of the funniest things he saw in his life.

still daydreaming, i passed next to the basketball court, when i saw the ball rolling in front of me. i grabbed it to bring it back to the boys who were playing with it, but one of them was running towards me to take it back i guess.

"sorry, i hope you haven't been hit by the... jungwoo?"

it was Lucas.

"hmm... n-no..." i stuttered handing him the ball.

"lucas! move your ass, we want to play!" one of the boys on the basketball court shouted.

"play without me for five minutes please, i have something to do." lucas replied, throwing the ball in their direction.

"i'll be leaving first." i said to avoid an awkward conversation.

"no, please..." lucas begged me, holding my wrist. "i'm really sorry for what i said and did to you, i feel bad... wait no, actually i feel terrible..." he continued.

"i'm sorry lucas, for not telling you... it's not your fault... it's mine." i said shyly.

"no, no, no! you did the right thing jungwoo. i would have killed you if you had told me you were my soulmate when we didn't really knew each other..." lucas told me.

"yes, but you're not gay and you expected your soulmate to be a girl..." i whispered.

"you know, i'm happy to know you're my soulmate. i'm feeling so satisfied knowing my soulmate is a kind, good looking and shy guy instead of a jerk... it was something i was really scared of..." lucas explained, holding my shoulders.

"i'm happy also to know you're my soulmate." i said as lucas' eyes started being teary. i pulled him into a hug and rested my head on his shoulder, smiling like i never did before.

"aww! get a room you two! what is all this gay bullshit about?!" yuta said behind us.

"fuck you yuta." lucas said, getting out of the hug.

"it's okay? you're not angry at each other anymore?" yuta asked me.

"i guess it's okay." i said.

"great, because i'm no longer being the only gay in my group of friends." yuta sighed as lucas hit his head.

"anyway, let's go, i'll pay you a drink jungie." lucas said, his hand on my back.

"hey! i am the only one allowed to call him 'jungie'! and how come you're not offering me a drink?!" yuta yelled.

"i don't pay a drink to people who had more than twenty hours of detention since the beginning of the year dumbass!" lucas explained.

"hey! you little shit! i had twenty one." yuta said, following us while laughing.
