"You don't need to lie to me, Jian Yi." He Tian said, feeling a glare on his back. "I'll talk to you later, Guan Shan."

"I know, but what if he hears it?"

"You kissed him, he knows how you feel."

"He punched me afterwards, so I told him to pretend nothing happened."

"Coward."

"But the thing is..." Jian Yi sighed. "There is a girl that likes him. She is cute and all, and even though she confessed, he rejected her."

"Do you know why?"

"Because of me. He said 'If I say yes to her, what about you?'" He Tian smiled, a mischievous smile. "What?"

"You are depressed over nothing. Your problem is really easy to solve."

"And how we'll solve it?"

"I'll call you later. Redhead can't hear it, or else our plans will be spoiled."

Right when Mo Guan Shan was about to protest, Zhan Zheng Xi appeared in front of them, with all his things packed.

"I'm done and it's getting late, we should go."

"I thought we were spending the night." Jian Yi pouted.

"You should go," He Tian said, causing Jian Yi to be surprised. "Now."

The blond picked up his stuff and the four guys headed to the entrance. Zheng Xi and Jian Yi left, and when Guan Shan was about to leave as well, He Tian's hand grabbed his collar and pulled him back. He then closed the door, locked it and put the keys in his pocket. Guan Shan was still facing the door, slightly shaking. He Tian moved away from the redhead, sitting on the couch.

"I told you I would talk to you later."

"What do you want from me?"

"I don't get you, Mo Guan Shan. First you say that I should disappear, that I disgust you. Then you come to me all worried."

"You were hurt."

"You don't care about those things."

"Because of me, damn it. You picked up a fight with She Li, so he wouldn't bother me anymore. You got hurt because of me."

"I know you." He Tian sighed. "It isn't enough reason for you. Tell me the truth."

"What truth?"

"I want to know how you feel about me, because you already know how I feel about you." He said, emphasizing the 'I'.

"Are you sure?"

"Just spill it out."

"Unlock the door."

"What?"

"I'll tell you if you unlock the damn door."

"How can I be sure that you won't run away?"

"Guess you'll have to trust me."

He Tian got up and turned around. Redhead was still facing the door. He went there and unlocked it, seeing Guan Shan hold the doorknob right after hearing the click. He Tian stepped back, prepared to see the other guy flee. But he didn't.

"I wasn't disgusted because you are a guy, nor because it was my first kiss. I was disgusted because it was against my will." Guan Shan pressed the doorknob "I hate the fact that I'm weak, and there were you, rubbing it in my face over and over. You just found a different way of subduing me. What I feel towards you..." He took a deep breath "Is fear He Tian. I am afraid of what you're capable of doing to me, knowing that I'm weaker."
