[15]
Jehyun looked up from the textbook he was reading and caught the sight of a beaming council president. It made him wonder how the older changed moods so quickly. It was like his depressed mood yesterday completely vanished and was replaced by the usually positive persona of the president.
His classmates were whispering. Asking among themselves why their council president was in their room when the senior's classroom happened to be a floor above there's. Rumors also started to spread about the two dating.
"yah Lee Jehyun! " the entire class flinched once their back door was slammed open. In came a fuming Seojun who looked disheveled and like he just got up from bed. "lion cub! "
Jehyun got up from his seat and made his way to the celebrity. Stopping a few feet away from the older before grabbing the neck tie the celebrity was holding and tying it properly around his neck. "aish what's wrong with you? This is your third week here in school and this is the first time you came this messy" he then proceeded to fix the celebrity's dress shirt before flapping his blazer and helping the other wear it. then proceeded to comb the celebrity's hair with his fingers.
There classmates watched with their jaws agape and eyes bulging out. Since when were the two that close that it's normal for jehyun to help dress the celebrity. Jung hoon on the other hand kept clenching and unclenching his fists. Chen caught on to this and had a wicked expression on his face. Joshua who was beside him gave him a knowing look. "what is it this time butterfly? "
"oh don't mind me" he swat the other away. "you should be minding the person looking for you outside"
"there" jehyun finished styling the celebrity's hair and took a step back to admire his work. Seojun didn't look like he just got out of bed instead, he looked refreshed. "why did you even come here like that? Didn't your manager scold you for looking like this? "
Seojun may or may not have disarrayed himself in the bathroom on the ground floor before going up to his classroom. He wanted to make sure that his lion cub's attention was only in him and not on that mutt.
"oh don't be like that lion cub" he suddenly cupped the younger'S cheek before bopping their noses together. This earned a flushed expression from jehyun and squeals from his classmates. Seojun wanted to do more but the cough of the mutt disturbed him.
Letting go of jehyun's cheek, he snarled at the council president' s direction. "aish what do want you mutt? " this earn a lot of gasps from the spectators. No one dared to ever disrespect the council president.
"I just want to remind you that excessive PDA is prohibited in the school. Students caught are to be punished accordingly but for now seeing that you are new here, I would only let you go with a warning" junghoon said camly, glaring dagger at the celebrity who shrugged his warning.
"yeah so what? If you're going to put me in detention then that would be nothing. I have training right after school so holding me back would be futile" Seojun took a taunting step forward. "so before I do something to you, scram"
Junghoon's nose flared in anger but he didn't want to cause a scene. He would be completely ruined if ends up punching this celebrity. This would also cause a bad impression to Jehyun. "you know what, your right I better scram" he hastily made his way to the front door but halted to look at the celebrity once last time. "we aren't finished yet Kim"
Chen dramatically clapped his hands. Attention going onto him as he jumped out of the table sat on top of before dramatically making his way to his best friend. He slowly placed both of his hands on Jehyun before letting out a a dramatic, "wah Lee Jehyun, tamer of bullies and my best friend" he looked at him straight in the eye. "good luck"

Jehyun was getting uncomfortable with the stares some of the students from the University. They whisper about how he caught the eyes of the infamous cold president and the newly transferred celebrity. And truthfully speaking it irked him. He just wanted to shout in the cafeteria that he has no plans in being in a relationship with the two.
Why? Because the president does not meet the standards he placed for the person he wants to have as a partner and two, he knew Jin would try to convince him no. And for Seojun, the celebrity was too egotistical.
And that brings him to his current situation, being situated between a grizzly and a mutt glaring at each other. He doesn't know how it ended this way. One minute he was peacefully eating with Chen who was still trying to contact Jin and next thing he knew the two appeared behind him with their own tray of food and sitting next to him on both sides, squeezing him in the process.
Joshua who sat opposite to Seojun, glanced at Chen before stomping his foot under the table. The butterfly bit his tongue to prevent him from cursing out loud. Returning the action to the other, he shot Joshua a glare. "what? " he asked irritated at the older.
Joshua glanced at the trio who sat opposite to them before looking back at the butterfly. "what's with them? "
Chen rolled his eyes. Why were men so slow when it came to this situation? Honestly, it even made him question if Joshua is the smartest person in their batch. "don't you get it" he snorted, placing down his phone to put his full attention to the older beside him. "they're—"Come on lion cub I know you like this strawberry yogurt" the two stopped talking and went back to the trio, witnessing how Seojun was offering a cup of strawberry yogurt to Jehyun while Junghoon offered a blueberry yogurt.
"don't embarrass yourself Ki–I mean Seojun " junghoon's mouth twitched as he used his cup to push away seojun's own cup. "jehyun likes blueberry right"
"no he likes strawberry"
"blueberry"
"strawberry"
"blueberry"
"straw—"
"is he really the school president? " Chen whispered to Joshua who nodded his head at the statement. "is he even a celebrity? " Joshua whispered back, eyeing Seojun who was having a cup pushing competition with Junghoon. He then looked at Jehyun who looked dejected.
Having enough of the two pushing their cups of yogurt and wanting to help the dejected friend, Joshua decided to get between the two. "okay so first things first, Jehyun doesn't like yogurt and two lunch is about to end in—" he checked the giant clock above the teacher's table. "five minutes"
"wait wha—umph! " Joshua quickly shut Chen's mouth with his hand before smiling at the three and dragging the squirming butterfly and motioning Jehyun to follow them.
"oh yeah. Wait for me Joshua! " jehyun quickly stood up from his seat to walk after his two friends, not catching the two eyes that followed behind him.
Seojun clicked his tongue, slamming the cup of yogurt on the table. Glaring at the senior he said, "didn't I tell you not to go near my Jehyun"
"and didn't I say not to touch him" Junghoon sat back.
Seojun crossed his arms over his chest. "yeah but who am I to follow rules. Did you forget, I'm the most scandalous celebrity from C9 entertainment "
"well have you forgotten that—"
Junghoon looked up as he heard the school bell, signalling the end of lunch. He looked back at Seojun and glared. "this ain't done Kim"
"oh this not Choi" the celebrity growled back, getting up from his seat and leaving the president.
Junghoon harshy held the spoon, subconsciously bending it. The celebrity irked him to the core. This was his only chance to get close to Jehyun but some bear just had to get in the way. If he wanted he could have let the CEO of C9 entertainment take the celebrity away from here but no, the CEO said that punishment is punishment.
