"why are you stuttering?"

oh

well shit

why jake why

"haha my bad" i say while walking away to get the safety goggles not missing my chance to punch jake in the shoulder.

i walk over to the counter of chemicals we needed to collect for the experiment.

'aish i forgot the beakers'

i walked over to the trolley (anything off the trolley dears) and tried to pick up 3 beakers and a measuring cylinder to bring to our counter.

i curse and mutter at my tiny hands that couldn't grab everything at once.

"i seriously don't want to take two trips. this is so annoying why are your hands so small ugh stupid stupid stupid"

"are you okay here?"

i jumped up surprised, almost dropping the three beakers i managed to pick up.

"oh, yea i'm fine sunghoon"

"here let me help you"

he grazes his hands against mine to take the beakers. he even manages to carry the measuring cylinder. 

jeez how do they all fit in his hands

"let's go get the goggles"

i simply nod

we walk over to where the goggles SHOULD be but there's none left hoorayyyy.

"miss lu there's no more safety goggles left." we walk to the front of the classroom to tell her.

"oh alright. head over to the lab next door and find some more. bring some for the remainder of your classmates please."

"yes miss."

why do we have to get it for them. can't they get it themselves

after sunghoon put down the beakers, we walked next door to try and find some more goggles.

we get to the classroom but it's a lot bigger than our regular one and the spacing is different.

"guess we'll have to look around" i say awkwardly.

"yea i guess so" he says. we walk off into separate directions to look for them.

after searching through all the clutter i find them and call sunghoon over to help carry some. he waltz's over to get some.

"hey uhmm sunhee"

i look over at him confused.

"yes?"

"i was wondering if you wanted to do anything after school today. it's okay if you're busy i understand we could do something next time. not that there might be a next time as in-"

"sunghoon it's fine it's fine. i'm sorry i can't today, i have to go grocery shopping with my brother after school. i would've liked to though."

"ohhh it's okay i understand" he says sadly.

"next time though. when i'm not busy. 100%" i say trying to cheer him up.

did he like our last hang out that much?
i squeal on the inside

"yea sure okay when you're not busy. th-thats great"
he replies bubbly.

i just smile at him as a response and finish grabbing the goggles.

"let's get back to class" i say. i don't wait for him to respond and just walk out of the classroom back to ours.

i plop all the goggles i was holding onto the table, with sunghoon copying shortly after. i take four safety goggles from the pile and walk back to our counter, where heeseung and jake are waiting, with a tall shadow following me.

"okayyy let's blow some shit up"
