Chapter 3

You continued glancing back at those two people as you and Mira decided to share a bag of chips, while Zack munched on a corn dog.

It was noticeable as Zack kept staring at the couple's before excusing himself. "Mira, Y/n, I'm going outside for while.

Zack got up from his seat right next to you, and left out by the back exit. You looked over at Mira with a questionable look, she only responded with a shake of her head and shrugged her shoulders.

You looked towards the back exit that Zack just left through.

Hm...

⇰⇰⇰⇰⇰

Still in the cafeteria of the Snack Bar, you scrolled through your phone as you struggled to look for a new song to enjoy. While Mira was going through her textbook, underlining and writing down specific notes.

"Y/n, Mira-" Your ears perked up by the arrival of Zack.

"Oh, you're back?" Mira said, getting up as she pushed her text book aside.

Zack came back over to the table you were both seated at. "Want something to drink?"

"I'll have a soda."

"Same here."

"Okay." Zack walked away from the table, heading straight to the Snack Bar station to order the sodas.

Though you wanted to continue with your previous work, you relished the reality at just looking at Zack. It was hard not to notice his outstare, his attitude, his aspects.

You turned around to look for Zack, your eyes landed on two guys who were meddling with Zack. One of them was the same guy you saw earlier.

They pushed Zack to the side as they skipped him, Zack confronted them, but was given rude retorts in response.

You soon gaped as a third man approached them. He stood tall, he wore a blue, red and white sweater, he was even bald with a smug face like the rest of them. His frame was just larger compared to Zacks.

It even even caused you to stir when the bald guy tapped the side of Zacks face as a sign a mockery. Your eyes switched over to Zacks hands which were now clenched fists that rested by his side.

They really are trying to cause a commotion!

You got up from your seat, about to make your way over to Zack, but he noticed you for a split second before whisking his way in front of you. Blocking the view of the men from you.

"Zack-"

"Its ok Y/n, I'll keep to my promise." Zack grabbed a hold of your hand as you walked along beside him, even pushing Mira out as he suggested to go back inside. Rushing all of us out.

After what had happened in the Snack Bar, you couldn't imagine how hard it was for Zack to keep his composure. Despite Zack, studying in this room all day was quite frustrating and boring for you.

You decided to excuse yourself away from Mira and straight to one of the break rooms to get another drink and to rest for a bit.

As soon as you entered the room, you were met with Zack who was sitting on the bench, hunched over.

You came over and sat next to him unannounced, placing your hand on the side of his face. "Do you have a fever? You're burning up."

You felt Zack jump a little at your touch, but soon rested his head more into your hand.
