I've had trouble sleeping last night. Everytime I closed my eyes, Yoon Yi's face would pop up. I'm not sure why I keep thinking about him like this. He's just a guy that saved my life. Anybody would've done it. Then again, it was him who decided to save me from death and he's a third year too. Most third years are so cocky and always pick on the first years. Though, Yoon Yi doesn't seem like the type to pick on anybody, but what do I know? Kim Lee would know better than me anyways.
Once I got to the school, Kim Lee greeted me then I saw his eyes widen as he looked me over from head to toe. I guess he's pretty amazed at how I look in my new school uniform. I don't really like wearing uniforms and I would prefer wearing street clothes, but I don't want to get into trouble and have the teachers demand that they talk to my parents about my attitude.
"Hae Jin, that uniform looks good on you!" Kim Lee said, excitedly.
I shrugged and rolled my eyes. "I guess..." I said then pulled up my bookbag's strap over my shoulder more and sighed.
"Let's get to class okay?" I said.
Kim Lee nodded then the two of us started to walk to our homeroom class. As we were walking, I noticed that Yoon Yi, his friend, Joon Chi and a couple other guys were walking towards us. I don't know why, but suddenly, I started to feel my heart thumping against my chest. Without thinking, I ran into a random room.
"Hae Jin, that's not-" Kim Lee started, but got cut off when I left then he ran after me.
I sighed in relief once I stepped inside the classroom and pressed my back against the wall. Kim Lee stood next to me then he poked me gently in the arm.
"Um...Hae Jin, this is..." He started, but was cut off again when the door opened and in came Yoon Yi, Joon Chi and the other two guys.
I slightly jumped then watched them walk over to their seats.
"Why are they in here?" I asked, confused.
"This is a third year classroom." Kim Lee said.
I blinked my eyes in disbelief then I stuck my head outside the door and looked up at the door sign to see that it says 3-A. I pulled my head back in, feeling stupid.
"Oh...You're right." I said then sighed.
"Let's get to our classroom then." I said then the both of us headed out of the classroom and walked into the right one.

During lunch time, me and Kim Lee decided to eat in the cafeteria today. We both grabbed some food then sat down at an empty table with Kim Lee sitting in front of me. As I was eating, I looked past Kim Lee to see Yoon Yi and his group eating at the table behind us. I sat there and observed Yoon Yi. I watched at how his lips turned into a cute smile when he laughs and how neatly he eats. Then, I saw that Yoon Yi started to lick his lips. It gave me a weird feeling and without thinking, I touched my own lips, still feeling Yoon Yi's touch on them.
I sighed softly then looked at Kim Lee, curious about something.
"Have you ever been kissed before?" I asked.
Kim Lee looked at me and stared, confused before he smiled shyly.
"No. I wish, though." He said.
"By who?" I asked.
Suddenly, Kim Lee blushed and I wasn't sure why unless he actually had someone in mind.
"Um...Y-Young Joon Chi..." He admitted.
My eyes slowly widen, surprised.
"You like him?"
Kim Lee nodded, looking embarrassed.
"Y-Yeah...I do."
"How long have you liked him?"
Kim Lee sighed and smiled softly. "For awhile. The first time I saw him was when I was in eighth grade and he was a first year at this school. Even though we went to different schools, we took the same bus route so I was able to see him everyday. I remembered when he first stepped onto the bus with Yoon Yi. I thought that they were both good looking, but my eyes were more focused on Joon Chi. He looked so cute and handsome back then. I would always watch him from the minute he stepped onto the bus to the minute he left the bus and I would always longed to be able to talk to him and hold an actual conversation with him." He explained.
I stared at Kim Lee, listening to his story. I was taken back by his confession. It was almost cute and it sorta makes me want to support Kim Lee and I want to tell him to pursue his feelings.
Though, Kim Lee sighed sadly as he stared down at his food.
"But...Joon Chi isn't really the type to date. Both him and Yoon Yi don't really date at all."
"Why?" I asked.
Kim Lee shrugged. "No clue. I've just heard that they both don't really like dating much. I've even heard that Yoon Yi doesn't like the idea of having a crush on someone."
For some odd reason, that little information made me feel weird and I wasn't sure why. It was like, I felt a little hurt to hear that Yoon Yi doesn't like dating and I don't know why I feel this way. I don't even like him. All he did was save my life.
I looked at Kim Lee and nodded, understanding.
"I see." I said then went back to eating, Kim Lee's words still lingering in my head.
