Euro's POV

"How did you do in the exam?" Lotte asked me as we walked out of the classroom together.

I looked at him in surprise.

It was very rare that Lotte spoke to me. He usually ignored me even when we crossed paths anywhere in the school grounds.

"Um... " I hesitated to tell him the truth.

I decided to dodge his question.

"Why don't we wait for tomorrow? The teacher will surely announce the results tomorrow," I said, shrugging my shoulders.

"No, but how do you feel about how you answered the questions? Do you think that you got everything right?" Lotte pestered me.

"How about you?" I countered. "How did you do in the exam? Did you get everything right?"

Lotte shook his head sadly.

"Something that JJ told me just before the bell rang got all my concentration flying out the window," he replied.

My heart started racing like a horse on a race track.

"What did he tell you?" I asked, my heart in my throat.

"That he had a crush on me," Lotte said.

I studied his face. It was expressionless.

"Why am I getting this feeling that you're just pulling my leg?" I said to him, making sure that I was not  looking at him but at somewhere else.

"You don't have to believe me," Lotte said, again with that expressionless face.

I pushed Lotte against a wall in the hallway.

"Goddammit, Lotte," I hissed at him. "If I find out that you've been lying to me, I'm gonna break your neck!"

"Ooohh, someone is cherry flavored Jello!" Lotte said with a teasing grin.

That made me even angrier.

I put more pressure on his shoulder using my elbow.

"Okay! Okay!" he whined. "I was lying."

"Then what was it that he told you just before the bell rang?" I reminded him of his earlier statement.

"He explained the reason for his having to wear an eye patch," Lotte said.

I removed my elbow from the crook of his shoulder.

"Jeez," Lotte muttered under his breath.

"What reason did he give?" I was not ready to let go of him completely yet.

"That you gave him a black eye," Lotte said, studying my face carefully. He seemed to be debating within himself whether to continue talking or not.

"And did he say why I gave him a black eye?" I needed to get to the bottom of things.

"Because you kissed him?" Lotte smirked.

He was back against the wall with my elbow pressed against his collar bone.

"Okay! Okay!" he was whining again. "He said that he kissed you and you punched the life out of him! Holy trinity one god!"

I let go of him.

I pressed my index finger between his eyes.

"If this gets around, I will know that you're the responsible party and I will make sure to make your life on campus so miserable that you will want to transfer school," I threatened him.

I walked away from Lotte without looking back.

Suddenly my stomach started to grumble. It reminded me that I had not taken any food since I woke up this morning.

I headed for the cafeteria, mentally cursing JJ along the way. Why would he tell Lotte of all people that I had punched him in the eye because he had kissed me? I thought he was the one who didn't want this kind of information going around.

I entered the cafeteria and was about to fall in line with the rest of the students when I spotted JJ at a corner table. He was facing the glass wall so his back was to me and the rest of the students.

I approached him quickly and quietly.

Confrontation time...
