Chapter 3 : Red.

    I woke up at the same time as yesterday and started getting dressed. As I was doing my finishing touches, I smelled something delicious coming from the kitchen. I walked out and saw Heeseung cooking. I almost forgot he moved in last night.

"Good morning, y/n." He said without looking up at me.

"Oh, morning." I grabbed my keys and my bag and started walking towards the door.

"Are you not going to eat breakfast? I made some pancakes for us."

"I usually don't eat in the mornings, but, thank you though."

"Wait, but you should at least have a few bites." He said. I looked at the pancakes, which by the way looked really good, and back up to his eyes.

"Okay, but just a few bites," I gave in.

    After we finished eating, we started walking to school. As we were walking up to the courtyard, I noticed that other students were staring at Heeseung and whispering about him.

"Why are they staring at you like that?" I asked him.

"I don't think they are looking at me...I think they all are staring at you, not me." He replied. What? Why would they be staring at me?

I tried ignoring them as I walked alongside Heeseung to the class, until a few girls came up to me.

"Are you and Heeseung dating?" They asked me.

"W-what? What are you talking about?"

"He would never date someone ugly like her," other girls said to them.

The laughed and faced me again. "Everyone is talking about it. Someone saw you two walking out of the dormitory together," they said. I guess Heeseung got tired of them, because before I could reply, he grabbed my hand and pulled me to walk away from them. But he suddenly stopped behind me.

"Is this how your school usually is?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm sorry if they made you uncomfortable."

"No, it's okay. Let's just get to class before we get late."

"I'll meet you there, I have to use the washroom." He nodded and left me to go to class.

    As I was walking to the washrooms, I started thinking to myself, do people actually think Heeseung and I are dating? That's when I bumped into someone and I fell to the floor. Jeez, I really gotta stop thinking and walking at the same time.

The boy turned around and looked down at me. Surprisingly, he held a hand out to me. I looked into his cat shaped eyes and his dyed red hair. I grabbed his hand and he helped me up.

"I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to walk into you." I said quickly.

"It's okay, don't worry about it," he said. His voice was calm and sounded warm and soft.

"I'm park y/n," I replied.

"I'm Yang Jungwon," he replied. So this is where I recognized him from. I used to see him in the library a lot.

"Oh, are you the one who started working at Hobak Bar?" I asked.

"Yeah, do I know you?"

"Ah, I also work there, and Mr. Jeong asked me to train you today."

"Ohh, cool. What class are you in?" He asked me.

"Class 107, why?"

"Isn't your class in session already?" Oh shit. I gasped and started speed walking down the hall. I quickly stopped and turned toward Jungwon.
