[Honestly, I don’t know what I should answer him.] Dino thought with his face red while also not gazing directly at Ivan’s eyes. [But still...My heart is beating fast.]

At that moment, Ivan took Dino’s right hand and put it on his own chest, making Dino feel Ivan’s heartbeat.

“Dino, can you feel my heartbeat?” Ivan asked in an attractive deep voice while smiling gently, with the pupils of his eyes also dilated. “It’s beating just for you.”

The next day, after their training, Dino approached Wilson by the side of the pool and said, "Wilson, come on. Let's talk after we dress up."

"Alright," Wilson responded seriously and calmly.

Eric, who was nearby and heard the conversation between Dino and Wilson, thought, [Oh no. For some reason, I have a bad feeling about what they'll be talking about. I guess I'll be following and eavesdropping on them.]

Thus, Dino and Wilson went to sit down on a bench in the park within the university. Unbeknownst to both of them, Eric was nearby and hiding just behind a tree while watching the two of them.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Wilson asked.

Dino took a few seconds of thinking before taking a deep breath and replying, "I...I want to talk about what we were talking about at dawn yesterday. You know, about what you wanted to say  before Ivan showed up."
