His eyes never failed to make your heart flutter each time you make eye contact.
"So, they ended up having sex that night," your friend paused when she noticed you weren't paying attention. "Y/N, are you even listening?" Eunbi waved her hands infront of your eyes but your eyes could only focus on that one boy across the other corridor, that one guy who was talking to his friends and laughing, that one guy who felt someone was looking at him and looked at your direction.
This has happened many times already.
You thought you were only hallucinating at first, that he looked at you, but after countless of times it happened you finally concluded that he really did.
And you couldn't help but stare back.
Something in his gaze was truly alluring that you can't seem to stop to stare back. It was as if he was memorizing the details of your face even from afar, as if he was staring deep into your soul, as if he doesn't want to stop looking at you.
It's as if he wanted to talk to you.
And you felt the same.
But after three years of being in the same high school, you still weren't able to speak to him, nor get his name. The only information you knew about him was that he was a grade above you, due to the slightly different colored tie than yours in his uniform. And, that he's pretty handsome with a knack for dancing. He's also doing great in his classes as you can see him going up the stage every recognition to get his own medal.
As much as you wanted to take initiative to talk to him, you couldn't.
Not just because you're too shy to do it, but because there are more other girls who liked him.
You weren't the only one who had interest in him.
"Are you actually staring at Tag?" Eunbi crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow, a knowing smile on her face.
Tag. You only knew him as Tag. You quite weren't sure if it was his name or just a nickname the other students gave to him.
"Probably?" You shrugged and looked back at Tag again, still surprised that he was still looking at you.
"Girl, let me break it to you that he doesn't talk to girls and that he's a grade level above you? You don't have a chance."
"So what?" The littlest of smiles appeared on your lips. "I'm already contented just by looking at him." Your shoulders sagged a bit, and you let out a sigh.
"But that sigh says everything," Eunbi pointed out, a suspicious smile on her face. "I really can't help you, I just know that if you really want him, don't take initiative. He usually hates those persons who leech on him to seek for his attention."
"How do you know that?"
"I see everything." She winked at you and you were confused.
Rolling your eyes at your friend, your eyes again landed on the pair of mesmerizing chocolate orbs across you.
Surprisingly, he grinned at you.
You were taken aback, your heart doing backflips and your cheeks taking in a pinkish color. Tag just smiled at you. Your heart reacted without a thought, thudding speedily as if it wanted to break out of your ribcage, which would really be painful and bloody if it really did happen.
His smile was so mesmerizing, even from afar, his beauty radiating even with a distance. You couldn't look away. Instead, his smile invited you more to make eye contact.
Without even thinking, you smiled back.

Cursing silently, you stomped your way to your locker, still couldn't get over the fact that you missed an item in your test and it was the easiest question.
"How stupid can I get?" You closed your eyes, mentally facepalming yourself. "I could've gotten a perfect score."
Stuffing your things inside your lockers because you were frustrated, you were about to close it when a force pushed you to the right, making you stumble and for your things to pour down out of your locker...onto you.
"What in the---" You found yourself pausing before you could even shout when you saw the person beside you in a mess on the ground.
He rubbed his forehead after eemoving some of your notebooks, closing his eyes. You were a blubbering mess: your mouth closed and opened stupidly, staring at the guy who was beside you.
You heard him mutter things which you couldn't distinguish. You notice him looking far back into one corner of the corridor but when you looked, you didn't know what he was glaring at.
Finally getting back to his senses, he glanced at you, blinking for a moment and then widening his eyes in sudden realization.
"I-I'm sorry! Did I hurt you? D-did the ball hit you?" He scrambled to stand up and you stared at him once more, just like how you did a while ago.
You watched as he held out his palm to you, urging for you to take it.
You stared at the hand hovering in front of you, eyes blinking first, thinking how impossible this was happening.
You hesitantly reached out, taking his hand into yours and depended on his grip to lift you up. After standing you quickly dusted off your outfit and fixed your hair...just to look decent, of course. What are the chances that you'll be talking to a handsome man as Tag?
"Are...you okay?" He dragged out, an awkward smile on his face.
How could he be talking to you?
You nodded quite hurriedly, eyes looking anywhere but him. "Y-yeah, kind of."
"Are you sure?" He stepped a little bit closer and you swore your heart beat got ten times faster.
You nod once and just stared at the ground, not wanting to let him see the redness of your face.
Looking below you see that your belongings were still scattered on the floor. You scurried to get them all, Tag joining you making you even more flustered.
You placed your stuff into your locker - neatly, this time, you didn't want to have another bumping into locket incident happening again - and Tag gave you the things he got and you put it inside.
"Thanks..." you said after closing your locker.
"Umm...so hi, I'm Youngtaek." With a hand behind his neck and a bashful smile on his lips as he struggled to look at you in the eye also, you couldn't help but swoon over the gorgeous human in front of you.
Youngtaek, huh? So that's his real name.
Something fluttered inside of you.
It seems everybody in the corridor halted when they heard him speak. You started to become nervous, frantically looking at the crowd of students waiting for your response. You can even sense some sending death glares your way. You saw the jaw drops everyone had. You would also be like them if Tag - well, Youngtaek - told his real name to a random girl without any hesitation, given that the only name he went by was Tag and nobody knew if it was his real name.
The fact that he said that to you gave you the jitters. Your heart did backflips and a small smile started to bloom on your lips.
For the second time that day, he grinned at you, a full-blown grin, and this time, it was different. He was smiling in front of you. That smile that you only dreamt of seeing close was actually happening.
And those mesmerizing eyes that beheld the universe and the galaxies, the chocolate brown orbs that seemed to glow even when from afar, you saw how bright they are in person.
This time, you took a breath, deciding that this was your chance. To fully get to know what was once a dream. To fully get to know Youngtaek.
You returned back the smile sweetly, eyes sparkling. "I'm Y/N."
His eyes never failed to make your heart flutter each time you make eye contact.
Little did you know, your eyes never failed to make his heart flutter too.
