"No, nothing happened." "Liar." Hyunjoon flicked Chanhee's forehead then crossed his arms. "Fine...You k...kissed me." Hyunjoon let out a gasp then looked away from Chanhee. "Did I really?" "Yes..." Hyunjoon felt his face heat up. "I'm so sorry. I don't...I don't know why I'd do something like that. I must've mistaken you for someone else..." He looked over at Chanhee who's mood had become glum.

Sangyeon watched the two from afar and had to resist the urge to just yell out "Kiss you fools". He had become worried when Hyunjoon called him regarding Chanhee. Just as he walked away, he knocked over something and felt two pairs of eyes on him. "Sangyeon?" He sheepishly turned around and waved. "What are you doing over there?" "Well, after your boyfriend here called me about you, I became worried." "B-Boyfriend?! San, don't make jokes like that!" Sangyeon chuckled then waved to them as he left.

"Can you believe him? Saying something like that..." Chanhee noticed that Hyunjoon had been quiet the entire time. "Joonie...?" "Oh, what? Right. Silly..." Hyunjoon walked away from him and headed towards the gate. "Leaving already?" "Yeah. I have homework." Chanhee watched as Hyunjoon left then wondered if he said something that upset him.

Hyunjoon wasn't sure how to feel at this point. He confirmed that Chanhee was developing feelings for him, but the fool didn't even know it. "Has he always been this oblivious..." he thought before bumping into someone. "Hey!" He looked at who it was and started frowning. "Jacob..." "That's my name, don't wear it out."

"What does this clown want?" He stepped back as Jacob had a fist raised. "Look, I want you to give this to Kevin for me. And don't rip it, burn it, flush it, throw it away. Just, give it to him." Hyunjoon was still suspicious but nodded. "It was nice knowing you, Joon." Hyunjoon felt confused by Jacob's word then grabbed his arm. "What do you mean?" "I'm going somewhere far. Far from you all." Jacob shook off his hold and walked away.

Hyunjoon waited for Kevin at the playground then checked the time. "I'm here. What's so important?" He held out Jacob's envelope and waited for Kevin to take it. "Open it. I want to know what he has to say." Kevin opened it and read the letter out loud.

"Hey Kev. It's been a while hasn't it? I hope you're doing better. I admit, I was dumb, stupid, idiotic. If I could go back in time, I'd do everything differently. I didn't intend on hurting you, but I got used to it and it got worse. I'm sure you wouldn't believe me if I told you I actually did have feelings for you. I told the school what really happened and naturally I was expelled. Juyeon as well. I'm going to be moving to Jeju Island since my dad accepted that job offer. I know no amount of apologies can fix what I did, but I honestly deep in my heart regret doing it.
                                              -Jacob B.

Hyunjoon looked at Kevin who looked disappointed and sad. "Well, now we don't have to worry about them anymore, right Joon?" "Did you have a thing with Jacob in the past?" Kevin looked at him in surprise then quietly nodded. "It was only for a week. Before he turned bad. But, I already had developed feelings for someone else." "Who?" Kevin remained silent as he looked at his hands. "Juyeon's cousin." Hyunjoon snorted then slapped his thigh. "Youngjae? Bro, you could've chosen anyone, but Youngjae?" "He's adorable okay? Like, have you seen him when he pouts? And when he smiles?" "I get it, I get it." They both shared a laugh as they sat and talked about school.

"Kevin." "Yo?" Hyunjoon ran a hand through his hair then took a deep breath. "Chanhee is developing feelings for me, but I think he's unaware of it. Do you know what he told me?" Kevin shook his head as he listened intently. "He said he felt pain when he saw Juyeon kiss me, that's another story, and that it went away when he hugged me." Kevin snickered then took a breath. "I always thought Chanhee was a genius, but he's just an oblivious fool. What do you plan to do then?" "Dunno. Sangyeon usually knocks some sense into him. So, I guess I'll inform him." "What if he decides not to help?" "Then I'll strangle him."

Hyunjoon waved to Kevin as they parted ways to go home. Hyunjoon felt his phone vibrating, so he took it out of his pocket. "Is ya boi." "Joonie." He felt a smile creep onto his face as he recognized that voice and nickname. "How may I help thee?" "I don't really need anything. I just suddenly wanted to hear your voice." "Oh."

Hyunjoon opened the door to his home and locked it behind him. "Sorry Chan, I need to go. My dad needs me." He hung up before Chanhee could say anything else. "He's whipped. Definitely." He walked upstairs and entered his father's room. "Hey kiddo." "Hey. How are you?" "Pretty good. You look like you've had a long day." Hyunjoon nodded then sat down on the bed. "Dad, I have something to tell you." "If it's about your sexual orientation, I already know. You were never one to be subtle." "Well, I'm glad I got that over with."

Hwall🐱:
San, I know you saw it.

Sang🥭:
Chanhee being all over you? Yes.

Hwall🐱:
I think he's starting to like me, but doesn't know he's starting to like me.

Sang🥭:
I could've told you that.

Sang🥭:
Glad you found out on your own.

Hwall🐱:
Is Chan really this oblivious to his own feelings?

Sang🥭:
No. He's probably just trying to figure something out.

Sang🥭:
He's always been straightforward with his feelings.

Hwall🐱:
Oh.

Sang🥭:
Don't worry too much.

Sang🥭:
He'll come around when he's ready. Just do you.

Hyunjoon put his phone down and started thinking of finally getting to date his long time crush. He wondered how long it would take Chanhee to come around. He put on some music then eventually started dancing. A phone call interrupted his jam session. "Who is this?" "Youngjae." Hyunjoon checked the caller ID and sure enough it was. "You need something?" "In fact, I do. You got Kevin Moon's digits?" "What for?" "So I can text him? Why else?" Hyunjoon hung up on Youngjae and went back to listening to music.
