"You Make me feel safe"

18 April,

The day Ning and Feng will fianlly start their sports meet practice.

For the past one week everything as been normal, except for the fact that Feng has been looking at Ning too often and noticing all of her actions ne it tiny or big.

Ning of course wasn't unaware of his eyes on her but she didn't really wanted to make them awkward so she ignored it and acted normal.

.

"So my Ning would fianlly start her practice today, God I feel like a mother sending her daughter to school." Ling commented while wiping her fake tears.

"And I feel like hiting your forhead until it knocks some sense into your little Brain." Feng said as he glared at Yuan who seemed to be swearing badly with a guilty look on his face.

.

"Haha, Feng Ge...I didn't do it intentionally...maybe if we switch it off and then turn it on then maybe everything will be back to normal." He said as he took the phone from Feng hands.

"For that the phone must be on but it's not! No matter how many times I try."

"..."

"Yuan....If I don't get my phone back in good condition until tomorrow....you will have to pay me back with your blood." He said while grabbing him by his collar and giving put a sinister smile.

Yuan nodded with head without blinking and only breathed when Feng let him go.

.

"Did he crashed your phone too after playing g his stupid games?" Ling asked as she placed her hands over Yuan shoulders.

"Too? Did he crashed someone else phone before?" Feng asked as he looked at Yuan who didn't dare look at his face.

.

"He litreally crashed almost everyone's phone here, even his own so many times that his parents now refuse to buy him one." Ling said as she laughed while Feng eyes widened.

"Yuan...are you for real? After destroying everyone's cell you dare approach mine! Do you have a dead wish?" He asked and out of reflex before Feng killed him, he stood form his seat and hide behind Ning who aas enjoying thr drama.

.

"Dear Ning protect me please, I don't want to die young."

"Yuan come out, stop hiding behind her." Feng said as he tapped his foot growing impatient.

"No you will skin me alive."

"Yuan!"

"No!"

"Fine than I will bring you out myself!" He said as he aggressively approached Ning bench and turned to pull him out while Ning was I between them.

.

"Stop it you two! Ning will get crushed between you." Ling said as she pulled Yuan out and because of the sudden pull Feng lost his balance and fell right on Ning desk. His face only a centimeter away form hers.

*Thump* *Thump*

Both of them didn't dare to blink or breath, until the bell rang and Feng quickly stood straight. While Ning put her head down trying to cool down her warm blush over her face.

.

"Feng Ge, I will seriously repair your phone if not then I will buy you a new one. I swear!"

"I--I get it but you better hurry."

"Okay...but please control your anger, your face looks like a tomato." Yuan said guilty while Feng touched his face and cursed under his breath.

.

"Yeah---I need to go to the washroom." He said as he ran towards the washroom and wahed his face with cold water until the hotness calmed down and his heartbeat returned to normal.

"(Shit! What was that...? Is this sudden rise in heartbeat even normal?)"

"Should I consult a doctor? Maybe a cardiologist?" He said as he ran his hands though his hair.

.

At break time,

"Ling stop staring at me like that, you are creeping me out now." Ning said as she bend a little on her seat.

Both the girls were seated next to each other without the boys who were busy with their club activities.

"...Are you fine?..." Ling aksed as she raised her eyebrows and put her hands on her forhead.

"Your temperature is normal too, and you look calm, but how?"

.

"Ling what are you talking about and what does it sound as if like you expected me to he sick?" Ning asked as she pouted.

"Like heck I would want that...I just...You know...you don't like people getting near you or touching you...especially boys so how come you are so calm when you were almost sandwiched in between Feng and Yuan? Not to mention Feng was face to face with you today if not for the small distance..." Ling said as she in one breath.

.

Ning looked at Ling and then at her food...

"Right...why am I fine?" She whispered but it was loud enough for Ling to hear.

"Maybe because we are grown close with time, so you don't feel uncomfortable with them being around you and they are nice guys too."

"Maybe you are right...I must have grown on those guys without noticing it." Ning said as she smiled.

.

"(But still it's werid how come...I didn't push them away? How am I so calm? My heart beat is normal I don't feel any warning signs too.)" Ning thought and thought until they reached the playground where the boys were busy playing football and suddenly a ball came frying toward her direction, she was too scared to move so she closed her eyes and got ready for the pain which never came.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw Feng aging before her with Yuan in the back holding the football in his hand.

.

"Are you okay?" Feng asked softly while lolomg around her face and arms.

"Should I go and call for the nurse?" Yuan asked as he tossed the ball back to the boys before turning towards her.

She looked at their faces which showed concern and worried eyes....something that made her sigh in relief.

"(I finally understand why I am not on guard with them...I get it now...it's this look on their eyes that make me feel like opening up...)"

"Ning say something." Feng said as he placed his hands over her shoudlers and Ling flinched.

.

"You *looks at the boys* guys make me feel safe..."
