Inevitable Love Journey [ZhanYi]

Trying to deceive

Yibo looked down, trying to cover up his head from his hand—wanting nothing more but to disappear from here maybe from this whole earth and to never come back.

But he knew he can't so he kept praying to god that others won't find out it was his shoe which went flying above. He gulped when he felt a shadow covered his desk from above. It's over, I'm over.

He lifted his head slowly while he tried to hide his killing embarrassment by putting up a smile. He was able look at Zhan with a bashful smile to be met with a stern look from the other.

He dropped Yibo's shoe on his table and walked back to the front while the eyes of the whole class followed their professor like puppets. Some looked back at Yibo and tried to console their laughter while some didn't even bother to hide their bursting laugh.
Yibo was ashamed in a whole another level and didn't wanted anything but to dig a hole right there and burry himself.

Yibo was able to collect his thoughts after some time from Zhan's lecture was resumed. He glanced at his wrist watch restlessly and let out a reloading sigh seeing that he only had few more minutes to stay here. But remembering that he had a whole year and another to come here his groan was audible enough.

The moment lecture ended he took his file and hurried his way towards the door only to be halted.
"Wang Yibo, I'm not done with the lecture yet." Zhan's voice boomed through the lecture hall as Yibo froze on his tracks.

Why is it always happening to me?

Yibo turned around only to realise that others were still seated like they were before and he was the only one, ready to run away from here like kid after the school bell rings. He discreetly made his way back to the seat, awkwardly looking at Zhan who started giving homework for the next day.

"I want you guys to make a file about the history of hypnotism and I wouldn't clearly appreciate any copy downs from already written records. I want your own words." Yibo's sigh was the loudest among others and he was too late to realise again.

But he thought he was lucky enough that this time it wasn't that bad like before. After almost like an eternity Yibo was able to leave from the place named as 'Hell hole' by himself and was walking down the street with earphones occupying him in his favourite songs. He didn't bother to looked around on much as he was straightly heading to his new house.

He get on the elevator and pressed the button for the doors to close. He kept humming to the song, waiting for the doors to close. Once he know he was waiting for them to open so he could walk out to his house. He was putting his passcode in when he was flinched by a touch on his shoulder.

He glanced back to see none other than his professor/neighbour looking at him. He took a one of his earphone out and waited for the other to continue.

"I hope you could not scream today because if you do I might have to call police." With that Zhan walked away and eventually got inside his house leaving a bewildered Yibo out. Once Yibo was out of his trance he tssked and got in.

'I'll do whatever I want and let's see what he does.'

Yibo took out his laptop and a piece of paper to right down his points for the assignment. He scrolled through the net and before even half an hour was passed he was watching videos on YouTube because he was simply bored. He glanced at his untouched work an shrugged before turning back to his funny video.

Watching funny videos ended up somehow watching songs and eventually screaming the sounds too if his lungs.

He did actually forget about the warning he got but even if he remembered, he was most likely to ignore it. He was too lost in singing when he was interrupted by the doorbell. He didn't bother to turn his music off and walked towards the door still not remembering who could it might be there standing and giving him a death glare.

He opened the door with the same energised spirit until he saw who it was and internally panicking.

Zhan was hoping he could finally have his peaceful sleep after he warned his neighbor kid and was sighing in relief. He ate his dinner and was about to have his night coffee when he heard his ear drums loosing its tranquility.

He was fuming with anger when the movie didn't die out for the last fifteen minutes. That's when he had enough and stormed outside his house and stopped at the doorstep of where his annoying neighbour was at.

Right now both were looking at each other while Zhan was giving death glares as Yibo was giving his cheeky smile.

"That's it I'm calling the police for blasting sounds and disturbing neighbours." Zhan took out his phone and was the edge of typing down the numbers when he was dragged inside the room suddenly.

Yibo closed the door behind and looking at Zhan who looks confused at his actions. "What are you doing?"

Who knew he would actually call the police. Yibo sweated internally trying to think of an reply and make the other not call police. He did not want to get his clean history to be tainted with anything.

"Gege, I'm so sorry I promise I will never do it again. I swear can you not call police? Pretty please? On a cherry on top?" Yibo pleaded with puppy eyes which for a moment he thought that actually worked on the older.

"No." Zhan sounded firm and Yibo knew he had to come up with another way.

"Ooh what about I will treat you a coffee as an apology and you forgive me?" Yibo didn't wait for other's response and dragged him to his couch and made him sit there before running to the kitchen.

The hell?
Zhan kept glancing around at the untidied house and made a disgusted face. But he wasn't surprised though. His attention was brought back by the figure of Yibo walking to him but instead of a coffee his hands were empty.

Confused on what the latter was about to do, Zhan kept his doe eyes—following every movement of the younger. Yibo stood in front of Zhan with his hands behind him. Zhan looked at him with 'Wth' look as Yibo had a smile on his face.

"Uhm somehow I just realised the coffee was over so hehe I couldn't find anything else. But I got you a present instead." Yibo chirped but Zhan was still suspicious. He slightly backed away when a gift box was neared him, inside a nice bag.

Yibo urged him to take it out and Zhan did reluctantly. I shouldn't just called the goddamn police, this is wasting my time. Zhan internally groaned and opened the so called 'gift' and saw a swinging pocket watch. He looked at Yibo for a explanation.

"Ooh so like I thought you might like this which I got for a present to myself. Look it's used like this." Yibo took it out and started swinging it in front of Zhan. Yibo examined how Zhan's eyes got heavier and secretly squealed when he saw Zhan closing his eyes completely.
