"Why are you so quiet today?" I nudge the black-haired boy who stared down at his blank notebook.

Felix looks up and shrugs "My grades are dropping"

I motion to his notebook "That's because notes aren't going to write themselves"

The freckled boy rolls his eyes with a small sigh, running his finger through his dark hair "I'm stressing out" he said, looking at me but quickly looking away again.

I wouldn't say Felix was an outgoing person but he was a happy one. Shy most of the time but once he got comfortable with you he won't stop talking, so seeing him so in his head right now was a sight I didn't know I hated seeing until now.

I swallow harshly, I wasn't the best at comforting others but still, I continued to ask "Why? What's up?"

He still looked away from me and I could practically see the wheels turning in his head as he tried to figure out what to share with me.

"I-I like someone"

A small smirk plays on my face "Aw, your in love?"

He glared at me and pushes my shoulder slightly "Ew, no" He crosses his arms.

I nod slowly "Okay, but why is this stressing you out?" I ask, feeling more comfortable with asking him questions. "I don't think it should be"

"It shouldn't but it's complicated" He stares at me "But you wouldn't understand because you're with your crush"

My eyebrows raise "Who? Maya?"

Felix nods "Yeah, everyone saw you two together at the party," He says and sighs lowly, "I think you two are cute together"

I scratch my neck nervously "It's nothing"

Felix shrugs and looks away, finally starting to write the notes "Do you not like her now that you know you have her attention?" he asked without looking at me.

"I do like her" I replied, not adding more to it and letting the conversation fade out as it was now my turn to space out for the rest of the class.

I move around my food on the tray, feeling a hand on my knee and making me look beside me towards Minho.

"Everything okay?" He asked and I nod, not in much of a mood to carry on a conversation.

The silver-haired boy looks at me long before I look away to the others walking up to the table "Damn, that looks painful" Changbin grimaces.

Hyunjin rubs his neck as they sit down at the table "I'm gonna need you to spill the beans on this one because those hickeys are insane" He says to Minho who rolls his eyes.

"You already know I don't talk about this stuff"

"You do, but you keep the good ones a secret," Seungmin says as he starts to eat his food.

Everyone agrees to his words but I stood silent, observing how Minho kept quiet about his night after the party.

"Don't tell me Minho is already hooked" Changbin laughs loudly at the boy who only grows more irritated.

"Guys, I'm seriously not gonna talk about it. They said they didn't want anyone to know and I'll respect that"

"But we're your friends, it's not like we're gonna go tell the school who your fucking" I finally spoke up and Minho looks at me.

"I'm not fucking anyone, it was a one-night thing and that's it" His voice grew more defensive and I swallow harshly.

The tension grew at our table and only got thicker when my name was called "Jisung" I turn my head and see Maya standing there, her eyes looking to Minho before going back to me "Want to go get some air with me before class?"

I look to Minho who grabs his tray, stands up, and walks away from the table. I look back at her and stand up "Yeah, sure"

As we walk out of the doors the sun hits us immediately, silence followed us as we walked. I felt her eyes look toward me before looking away.

"Is everything alright with you and Minho?" She asked. I look at her briefly, the breeze making her dark hair flow and the sun hitting her face perfectly.

"Yeah, perfectly fine" Her brows raise at my sarcastic tone and I sigh "We're good, he's just—" I stop my words and shrug.

"You know you can talk to me" She grabs my arm as we continue to walk and I just look ahead.

"Yeah, it's nothing really," I said but that was a lie. My head roamed with the way Minho blew off the questions. My mind itched at the fact that I had no idea who Minho left with that night. I was his best friend and he told me everything. Was it so bad that he couldn't? Or was it so good that he thought it was finally time to keep it to himself?

"Let's hang out after school?" She stops and stands in front of me with hopeful eyes.

"I already have plans"

She pouts "Can't you make time for me?"

I look into her eyes for a moment, I could but I also knew how Minho would react and he was already upset with me. "Tomorrow?" She sighs loudly and looks away, I put my hand on her cheek and she looks at me. "Tomorrow I'm all yours"

"All mine?"

I nod, leaning down and connecting our lips into a short kiss. I pull away and look into her eyes "Yes"

"I like the sound of that" She giggles cutely and I give her a small smile.
