-Time Skip-

"Remember the counting!" Ms.Ko shouted as she clapped to the beat
When the song finally came to an end, the studio was filled with tired sighs and pants
A new choreography was taught to us and it was really intense
We learned the ending part of the choreography today, trying to dance it all together was tiring
Jake was on the floor and Jay and I were trying to catch our breath
Ms.Ko clapped again catching all of our attention
"This afternoon I have to be somewhere, so I expect you guys to practice together a few hours after lunch. Get it right before next week"
Ms.Ko thanked us and we did the same before she left the studio
Like Jake I was on the floor and laying down while panting, my chest moving up and down rapidly
I was so tired...
"Here," I looked to see Jay who handed me a water bottle and handed one to Jake as well
With Jay's help, Jake and I sat up and I tiredly opened the water bottle. "Where do you wanna eat lunch?" Jay asked
I shrugged, and Jake did the same too, "I'm gonna eat at the dining hall, too tired to eat out..." I say and Jay nodded
"Well I'm hanging out with Sunghoon, we're eating out, Jake you can join us if you want," Jay said which Jake agreed to
They both bid me goodbye before they left the studio
I did the same and since I wasn't the last one, I just left my other classmates there
My legs felt weak and I didn't want to walk, even though the dining hall was much nearer than any place else
Walking there slowly, something suddenly popped up in my mind
"Y/n..."
She was injured... Is her leg okay now? Well probably now it was a deep cut
The doctor said it would hurt to walk, so how is she going around the campus with her leg in that condition?
Does she have crutches? Or is she in a wheelchair... Probably crutches since she could still use the other leg
'Yah Heeseung why are you thinking about that...'
Shrugging off the thoughts I walked a bit faster to the dining hall






I was carrying my tray and looking around for an empty table to sit
But something else caught my attention, it was Y/n and she was sitting alone at a table
Looking at her for a while thinking about whether I should join her or not, she caught me looking at her
She smirked and gestured the sit in front of her, so I did. I walked up to her table and sat down
"Rare seeing you here in the dining hall," I say after adjusting my chair
She chuckled, "you too," she smiled
"How's your leg?" I asked and she looked at it before looking at me again, "it's okay? It's painful to walk though..."
"You don't have crutches?" I asked and she shook her head, "it's a hassle"
Since we started to eat, it was awkward since it was just two of us at the table
The dining hall was pretty loud considering it wasn't just us here. Other college students were here too
As some of them walked by I could hear them talking
"Isn't that Hong Y/n?"
"Who's that guy she's with? I've never seen him before"
"What happened to her leg!? Is she okay?"
"Pfft, probably another one of her boyfriends"
I ignored the comments since they weren't about me, but looking at Y/n her expression didn't change at all
I guess she wasn't bothered by what they were saying
She suddenly looked at me and I looked down at my food, flustered with the sudden eye contact. I heard her chuckle which made me look at her once again
"Why are you looking at me?" she asked, "do you not hear what they're saying?" I asked and she nodded
"Yeah? And?-" she chuckled again
I just shook my head, didn't want to talk about it further
"Do you have class after lunch?" I asked and she shook her head, "we were supposed to but our professor had an emergency, so I'm planning to head home to do assignments and other shit"
I nodded hearing her plans, she asked the same question to me and I answered her
"How are you gonna get home?" I asked another question, "a taxi probably? I can't ride my motorcycle so..."
"How did you get to the campus then?"
"Sunghoon, but he has planned so I have to go home by myself," she said taking another bite of her food
I decided to offer to help her get a taxi and she agreed with a smile
The lunch was much more normal than I expected, and she kept smiling which made me smile as well
I thought it'd be awkward for me, because when I'm usually with her she'd flirt
But that wasn't happening so often, I'm starting to enjoy her being around me now
