❝how can he look so perfect?❞ chan whined behind the bookshelves, not taking his eyes off the male who reading the book upside down while playing with his phone behind the book. ❝so perfect.❞

the male groaned and then ran a hand through his hair, annoyed look on, but chan still find the male very handsome. chan squealed silently from his place when he saw the male biting his lower lip.

❝that's illegal.❞ the short boy hiding behind the bookshelves fished his phone out from his pocket, ❝i'm calling the police.❞

❝you can't even stand a day without him.❞ a voice then said, scaring the shit out of chan. ❝what more if he'd be put to jail and will stay there for how many months?❞

❝what the fuck?❞ chan panicked when he accidentally lets go of his phone but fortunately caught it and gave the owner of the voice a glare, ❝don't do that ever again.❞

the person who just appeared out of no where and scared chan showed a smile as he giggled. a smile that chan got reminded of his one thai uncle.

❝what are you doing here twenty?❞ he said, raising a brow.

the much more shorter boy shrugged, ❝i'm pregnant.❞

❝what!?❞ that came out louder than what he thought.

chan groaned, pushing the short boy and dragged him at the very corner of the library where no one can see them nor hear them. jiro might have heard him shout and he's going to think that chan is stalking him which chan won't admit because he'd rather call it, intense research of one individual.

❝i was just kidding.❞ twenty giggled, sitting down and pulling chan down with him.

❝yeah, sure.❞ chan rolled his eyes. this short human being just disturbed him from his intense research of jiro. ❝why are you here?❞

❝i'm having identity crisis.❞

totally unfazed, chan was about to stand up as he couldn't stand any of twenty's jokes but was only pulled back down by the short male.

❝i'm serious here.❞

❝so like, you have feelings for yanna but when you saw jeffrey you're like, bro he's hot.❞ chan said, was supposed to be just a joke but twenty nodded which shocked him, ❝what?❞

❝yes.❞

❝i'm telling your father.❞ chan gave twenty a look, trying to find a bit of lie from the younger's eyes but there were none, ❝you should go and talk to uncle ten about this. he knows a lot.❞

the younger shook his head as a no and held chan's hands, ❝i want to fix this on my own.❞

again, chan was unfazed, ❝then why are you telling me this?❞

❝because i trust you and i want you to help me.❞ twenty smiled as if chan will surely help him without thinking twice.

❝but you said you want to do this on your own?❞

❝i want to fix this on my own with your help.❞ twenty faked a cry, ❝please hyung.❞

❝okay fine!❞ chan scrunched his nose at twenty's low quality acting, ❝stop it, you look ugly.❞

❝really?❞

❝yes, you look ugly.❞

❝no, i mean—❞ twenty groaned, ❝you'll help me?❞

chan paused and then gave the boy one genuine smile, ❝yes.❞

❝has anyone told you that you're the best and you look good together with jiro?❞

it's that easy to make chan blush. mention about him and jiro and he'll already be a blushing mess, ❝sh, i already know that.❞

twenty rolled his eyes but then chuckled.

❝but i have a question.❞

the younger nodded his head, ❝sure, what is it?❞

❝who do you like the most, jeffrey or yanna?❞ chan asked, mentioning the two siblings that this short male has feelings for.

❝when i was young, i was so whipped for yanna.❞ twenty covered his face that is now flushed, ❝but jeffrey is so hot that i can't even—❞

❝what are you two doing?❞

the two flinched when they heard a familiar voice. twenty didn't bother removing his hands that are covering his face and continued to bury his face with a whine.

chan stood up, ❝jiro!❞

❝what's wrong with him?❞ the tall male pointed at twenty who looks like he's crying.

❝don't mind him.❞ chan said, nudging twenty and telling him to stop acting.

jiro didn't ask anymore questions and took a book out from the shelves and as he turned to the side chan was already leaning by the shelves as seductive as possible.

but honestly, chan looked like a drunk person.

❝so, i just want to thank you about the macaroons you gave this morning.❞ chan said, his void changing.

jiro rolled his eyes, ❝that was given by my parents.❞

and as jiro left, chan heard the younger snort. chan groaned, kicking twenty by the knee but not to hard that it'll hurt him. it was enough for the boy to remove his hands that was covering his face and laughed even louder.

❝you just embarrassed yourself.❞ twenty said, earning a glare from chan.

⛵

walking out of the building after a long daw from school, chan snapped out from his thoughts when a voice shouted his name.

he raised his head and then smiled at the person approaching him, ❝hey there jeffrey.❞

❝why do you look so down?❞ the tall well built man that was just around his age frowned as he cupped chan's face, ❝hm?❞

chan didn't want to tell him the truth but he could help but whine, ❝i failed the math quiz!❞

jeffrey giggled, squishing the whining boy's cheeks. ❝there's always a next time.❞

❝daddy is going to kill me.❞ chan sniffed, an invisible tear falling down from his eyes. ❝but then again, he couldn't math. who is he to scold me?❞

❝don't say that.❞ jeffrey said, ❝want to go home together?❞

smiling, chan nodded his head, ❝su—❞

but his decision was changed when he saw a familiar short figure walking out from another building. he smirked, if twenty wants help from him then he's going to receive the help he needs. chan raised both of his hands and placed it on the corner of his lips mouth for his shout to be heard by the short male.

❝twenty suh!❞

jeffrey raised a brow, wondering why chan was shouting.

the said boy raised his head with a smile walking towards chan without even noticing who was standing next to him.

while he was still walking, jeffrey suggested something, ❝want me to tutor you math?❞

chan shook his head, ❝you're part of the student council and the captain of the basketball team, you're so busy.❞

❝i can find time for you.❞

chan sighed and patted the other's shoulder, ❝it's fine. google sunbaenim is always there for me in times of trouble.❞

now that twenty is approaching, that's when twenty recognize who that tall male chan is with. he was about to turn around and retreat but chan already got hold of his uniform and pulled him in front.

❝anyways, i'll get going now.❞ chan gave them both a smile, ❝bring twenty home, okay jeffrey?❞

❝what?❞

not having any idea what chan is planning but didn't think about it much, jeffrey nodded, ❝sure, will do.❞ maybe chan is busy that's why he can't hang out with him.

❝wait—❞

❝enjoy your time.❞ chan wiggled his brows at the short male who's puffing his cheeks before leaving the two of them in just a flash.

❝fuck you.❞

jeffrey couldn't helo but chuckle when he heard the short male beside him mumble a curse, ❝let's go?❞

chan skipped his way out of the school gates and destiny doing good to him, he saw jiro also walking alone. chan mentally kneeled down and then thanked the cupids and gods above who's trying their very best to let chanro happen.

catching up to him, chan poked the older, ❝hey.❞

jiro glanced down and then back at the road, ❝what?❞

❝want to walk home together?❞

❝can i say no?❞

chan chuckled and shook his head, ❝it's either yes or yes.❞

❝i'll choose or then.❞ jiro stopped when they were about to cross the road. he took his hand out from his pocket and then held chan's hand so suddenly, ❝don't let go.❞

chan's cheeks turned bright red, nodded vigorously. while walking, it seemed like time was slowing down for him. not even noticing that he is talking his thoughts out loud, ❝jiro is holding my hand..❞

❝don't put to much thought into this,❞ jiro clicked his tongue and then lets go of the younger's hand when they finally went across, ❝you don't know how to cross the road and i don't want to be blamed for your death.❞

❝oh..❞ chan rubbed his nape while chuckling nervously, ❝right.❞

but still, jiro held his hand. it was making his heart go crazy, making him feel butterflies inside his stomach, and the feeling of jiro's big hand securing his small hand was wonderful. he wished that jiro didn't let go.

walking silently, jiro would often glance at chan whose spacing out. he doesn't have a clue that the short male beside him was thinking about him. thinking of scenarios about them being together. thinking about holding hands again.

finding the silence awkward, jiro decided cleared his throat, ❝so, you failed the test.❞

that snapped chan from his thoughts, ❝oh shit.❞

❝what are you going to do about it?❞

❝hide far away and not show up in front of my parents ever again.❞ chan joked, which surprisingly made jiro laugh.

and he was back in a daze, thinking that he could have recorded that beautiful laugh of his. he could have took a video of jiro laughing. make a gif of it after. he could have done a lot if only he wasn't in a daze and moved to take his phone out.

❝hello?❞

❝is it me you're looking for?❞ chan shook his head as he realized what he answered, ❝i mean—❞

and it made jiro laugh. ❝what's wrong with you?❞

chan looked down shyly, his cheeks heating up. ❝shut up.❞

❝anyways,❞ jiro cleared his throat. he stopped himself from laughing and said something he didn't expect himself to say, ❝want me to tutor you math?❞

chan sighed as much as wanted jiro to, ❝you have soccer practice all the time and—❞ but thinking about it, he didn't want to let this chance go away.

jiro shrugged, ❝okay then.❞

❝no wait!❞

❝nope, you missed the chance.❞

❝jiro!❞ chan kneeled down and clapped his hands together, ❝help me!❞

jiro rolled his eyes at chan for the second time today and pulled the guy up, ❝fine.❞

chan jumped and then hugged the tall boy. tiptoeing as he couldn't reach him, ❝you are such an angel!❞

❝let go of me.❞ jiro groaned, trying to pry off chan's arms that were wrapped around his neck.

but he was secretly loving the feeling of being hugged by chan.
