ayame sat by herself at the bleachers, just watching the other students play basketball.

jungwon was eating lunch with his other friends and not being mean but ayame was glad because she needed time to herself to think about how she felt.

"how do i even come to terms with how i feel?" ayame questioned herself.

ayame was new to the feeling of liking someone. she never had the feeling of having a crush. what does this mean? did she have to confess now?

she could barely present in front of people, how was she supposed to confess? was she supposed to?

no but what if he rejects her? that's embarrassing and their friendship is ruined. she can't.

how was she supposed to know if he feels the same? she can't just go up to him and ask him.

"i can't even worry about how i feel about jungwon right now" ayame ruffled her hair in frustration, "i already have so many things on my plate right now, feelings is not another good addition to add"

she played with her fingers before she began bringing herself down, "i'm not even worth being with..i have too many problems too deal with that i'd be a burden on my significant other. he has so many other options for significant others that are more better put than me..i literally have no chance with him" she chuckled bitterly, "i don't know what i was thinking"

it's not a lie that ayame is pretty but of course she never saw that. the only thing that threw people off with ayame was her personality that no one liked since she was so cold and stone-faced. so of course, she's never got a confession from anyone before and even if she did, it would be a joke.

like everything else.

"god why haven't i ended myself yet.." ayame muttered to herself and began thinking why she's even staying on the earth

her brother was one reason but she knew that wasn't the only reason

"jungwon can't be a reason why i'm still here..that's dumb-"

"ayame!" a voice shouted and the girl looked up to the bottom of the bleachers where she saw jungwon waving his hand and eventually go up to where she was sitting and sat beside her

"oh hey jungwon.." ayame spoke softly, trying to hide the stupid smile that wanted to appear on her face from him appearing

"are you sure it was okay i didn't eat lunch with you? i feel bad leaving you alone" jungwon asked her and ayame nodded

"it's fine. don't worry about it" ayame responded

"that's goo-"

"jungwon, do you like someone?" ayame spoke and she slapped her hand over her mouth, regretting what she said

'not again..' she thought

jungwon just laughed out loud, "repeat that again"

"nope" ayame shook her head

"do i like someone?" he repeated and she nodded timidly, "hmm..maybe?"

"who?" ayame asked, maybe a little too curious and maybe a little too quickly

"why?" jungwon inched closer to her face which made her flustered, "do you like me?"

she placed her hand on his forehead, pushing him away, "you're insane"

jungwon chuckled, "i don't know to be honest. i think i do but i'm going to focus on my studies for now and if something happens then something happens"

jungwon did in fact have a crush and it's not he didn't trust ayame with it, he did but he just felt like she had more important things to tell him rather than him telling her some measly crush

ayame got the urge to tell jungwon something. she looked at him and sighed, "you said i can tell you anything right?"

jungwon looked at her and nodded

"uhm actually last ni-"

"jungwon!" the two stopped and looked at the person who called jungwon's name, "teacher is looking for you. wants to meet you in the office"

'god i swear im not even going to tell him at this point' ayame thought before rolling her eyes mentally

"okay! thank you!" jungwon smiled and looked back at ayame, "i'm sorry..can you tell me later?"

"i-it's not important. don't worry. just go" ayame gestured with her hand and jungwon stood up

"i'll see you in class then?" ayame nodded and jungwon waved bye to her before quickly leaving the bleachers an d leaving the girl once again

"i don't think i need to tell him.." ayame smiled to herself, "i think it's almost time anyways.."
