Melissa laughed a little. "I forgot- you're the flirt of the campus." She smiled bumping his shoulder lightly. "But thanks. You have no idea how little compliments like that can brighten my day." She glanced at him. "I mean really."
"No it isn't that hard. Well, I don't think so at least." She shrugged. "Here, start it like this." She said showing him.
"one, that wasn't flirting. Nor was it a compliment. Simply a fact" he winked at her with his usual finger guns. He had learned that comment from Levi. Hearing him say it to Laura one time. He thought he couldn't use it in this instance. Wouldn't hurt would it
He watched her weave the stems of the flowers together as the flowers slowly formed a circular shape.
"wow. Uh…. Okay? That looks a bit complicated but I think I might he able to try. " he says biting his bottom lip as he did as she did, messing up a bit and not doing near as well as her
Laura smiled at him. "You're doing good!" She encouraged. "You're almost done." She hummed finishing off Seong-Jin's, watching Levi.
Melissa flushed a bit. "Well, I wasn't expecting that." She giggled. "You know, you're super cute." She smiled at him brightly flicking the end of his nose. "We should hang out sometime."
As much as he wanted to, he didn't let the pink hued blush rise up in his pale cheeks. He shoved his hands in his pockets after smoothly running his hands through his hair.
"really? Well where? We always need a destination" he winked
Once Auden was done, he held it up a little and giggled some. It definitely wasn't as good as Laura's. Far from it. Some flowers were twisted the wrong way along with some knots he had to make in order for it to not fall apart, due to him doing it wrong a little bit. A few pedals fell to the ground, landing in the grass. "um….s-sorry. This is really bad" he giggles again
"Depends what you like. How about I give you my number and we can work out the details." She hummed pulling a pen from behind her ear and sticky notes from her back pocket. She wrote it down quickly and peeled it off sticking it to his forehead. "Make sure to text me. The last guy forgot entirely." She hummed poking his cheek.
Laura gave him a soft look and a gentle smile. "I think it's pretty. Would you do the honors?" She asked tilting her head down and shutting her eyes. She waited for his fingers to brush across her hair as he set the crown on her hair.
He laughed a bit as he peeled the price of paper off of his forehead, rubbing it a little, for it left a little sticky mark in a line on his skin.
"oh trust me, I won't forget" he says "how could I forget such a face as yours" he winked
She smiled. "Nice to hear. See you after class?" She asked tucking hair behind her ear.
"you know it" he says with a smile.
Auden blushed a bit as he reached to her head, gently placing the flower crown on her head, brushing against her soft hair. He averted his eyes, looking down at his hands which were rather jittery
"it…. It looks really nice on you" he says softly
Melissa smiled and waved. "Alright see you later!" She hummed turning around and skipping off towards one of the building.
Laura opened her eyes and looked at him. "Does it? Why thank you." She smiled fingering it softly.
She loved the feeling of it and had a warm smile and a soft flush on her cheeks.
"Thank you."
Seong-Jin smiled his usual mischievous half smile as he shoving his hands in his pockets And blew a piece of his soft white hair out of his face before it could be tickle his eyebrow even more.
He chuckled, turning around and continued to walk. He didn’t care about skipping classes. That was one of his favorite parts of college. If you’re confident that you know that class then you can skip it. As long as you passed all of the test.
He was always one of the only ones who had the guts to skip though.
Auden ran his fingers through his hair, looking away bashfully for a few seconds.
“Uh…n-no problem at all. I mean I didn’t…wait…” He stammered on his words “sorry that was awkward” he bit his lip “Agh, sorry I’m really awkward, I don’t usually….do…this” he let His bottom lip slip out from between his white teeth, offering a shy smile
Laura felt herself melt at that, her face flushed, and she sunk her posture some. "I-it's fine, I understand." Laura attempted to offer the smile back, but she was too captivated by him. After watching him for too long, she blinked quickly and looked away from him. "So- what do we do now?"
He perked up, straightening his posture and looking around “Uh….should we go find song-Jin? I’m sure he’ll like the flowers” he says trying to find the white haired boy
"Oh right! We should before class." She chirped standing up. "Let's go find him!"
He stood with her and looked around for him. He would have held his hand out for her, helping her up but she stood before him.
“Oh, i think i see him!” He says pointing over to someone, who looked like Seong-Jin, walking along the sidewalk.
He kicked a few rocked along the cement as he hummed to himself with a smile on his face, one you could only see if you were looking for it
"Good eye Auden!" She hummed with a huge grin. She took his hand in hers and tugged him along.
"Come on, we gotta catch him before he runs off." Laura pleaded him in a childish way. Her pace was slowed as she pulled him, but she didn't mind if that meant getting to hold his hand. It was the little things that counted.
His face turned beat red when she grabbed his hand and pulled him along.
His heart beat fast and hard in his chest as he watched her as she lead him to their destination. He felt like just walking around he park or going on a nice car ride with her as they held hands.
No destination and no time limit. Just talking, some silence.
Whatever they wanted to do. He felt relaxed with her, yet at the same time jittery and he couldn’t stop his chest from feeling so light at just the sight of her smile. Oh how cute she was
“r-right” he replies a little late, trying to shake his mind of his own thoughts.
RIght now wasn’t the time for day dreaming. But man would he sure love to
“Hey! Jin!” She shouted waving at his back. “Over here!” Laura looked back at Auden with a smile, before turning back to the path in front of them. “Maybe he has ear buds in.”
Jins ear twitched as he looked up to someone’s familiar sweet voice.
He saw Laura and a smile appeared on his face. Just then he saw Levi holding her hand and his smile disappeared for a split second before he faked it.
“Hey? The flower crowns are a nice add on” he says poking her nose.
“You’re going to be late for classes if you don’t go in. What’re you doing out here still? The bell should ring any minute now?”
"Well, I was bringing you yours'." She giggled at his touch. "I thought that you'd want it, but if you don't, it's fine."
Laura smiled at him, a warm one. She was trying to be twice as nice, due to the fact he was so sweet to her in general, but she had also hit him with a book earlier. And a lot more. So she was really trying to be super sweet, so maybe he would forgive and forget. Though, he probably already had.
"Here!" She said holding it out to him.
His face flushed beat red when she handed it to him.
Taking it, he put it around his wrist with a smile. “Hm, what a lovely bracelet.” He says with a smile
"Oh come on, you know it's a crown." She rolled her eyes taking it off his wrist.
She stood on her toes and laid it on his head, just resting on top. "See like that."
“Like what?” He said looking up. “Sorry i cant see the top of my head. But yours on the other hand.” He says looking at the flower crown. Laughing a little at how weirdly it was made, but it was somewhat cute.
“Gorgeous as always” he winked.
he looked at Levi then at his nicely made flower crown. Of course his was oh so nicely made.
It was Mr. Perfect Levi we were talking about. Of course he didnt know this was Auden
She smiled brightly at him, adjusting the one on her head. "Well, actually Auden made this one."
Laura pulled away from Jin, a warm look about her. I mean why wouldn't she be happy? She was with her friends!
"So do you have a class to get to? I don't want to keep you away." She asked, taking his hand in hers'.
(Both of them just got friend zoned)
(RIP TT^TT)
Auden stayed silent, distracted by a butterfly that was flying around them, wondering what kind it was.
Seong-Jin gave Laura a confused look when she said Auden, wondering who it was. Was it another guy?
He tried to ignore, decided not to pry too much and answered her.
“Actually I’m…..” he paused not wanting to tell her he was going to just skip
“Yeah. I’ll be there in a minute. I’m….looking for something out here that I lost” he lied
“Go on without me.” He smiled. “And thanks for the flower crown. I really like it”
(Oof- that wasn’t suppose to happen XD)
Laura nodded, glancing at Auden before putting her focus fully on Seong-Jin. “No problem! Do you need help finding it?” She asked politely, reaching up and brushing hair out of her face. “Your lost item that is.”
