"hey guys!" yuna exclaimed as she joined sunghoon and jake at their lunch table

"someone's happy" sunghoon chuckled as yuna sat next to jake, clapping her hands together

"i am!" she smiled at the boys, "the track captain is transferring schools!"

"really??why?-wait" jake began, "the one you don't like??"

she nodded, "i don't know why she's leaving and i genuinely don't care" she spoke but then felt bad for saying that afterwards, "i try so hard to not hate anyone but i just couldn't bring myself to like her"

"so who's going to be the captain now?" jake asked

"youre looking at her!" she pointed at herself with a huge smile on her face and the two immediately widened their eyes before clapping for her

"congrats yuna!" sunghoon smiled, "you deserve that place"

"definitely. we're proud of you" jake patted her back, smiling as well, "i'll be sure to buy you something to congratulate you"

"you don't have to get me anything!" she shook her head waving her hands in front of her, "but... i'd like it if you guys came to my track event. it's in three weeks on wednesday at 3"

"i'd love too. i'll make sure to push back my ice skating practice" sunghoon nodded, picking up his food with his chopsticks

yuna nodded and turned her head to the left to jake, "can you make it?"

he bit his lip, "i-i'm not sure if i can make it"

"oh" yuna frowned and jake was about to comfort her and apologize but she just grinned instead, "it's okay. i'll have other times where you can come"

jake knew she was sad about him not coming since it was her first track event as captain and he really wanted to be there

"i'll try and get out of my tutoring and make sure i have no meetings afterwards so i can be there for you"

yuna smiled making jake let out a breath of relief that she wasn't mad at him, "thank you"

"you're such a child" sunghoon scoffed and yuna just glared at him

he cleared his throat suddenly intimidated of the girl and he quickly switched the topic, "so jake..anything interesting happening in your life?"

"hmm.." he thought about it before shaking his head, "not much. just been planning a few fundraisers and other activities for student council, few soccer practices and violin rehearsals but that's it"

"how about the afterschool tutoring?"

"boring. i don't really pay attention in those sessions since i already know most of the material" jake responded, "i don't even know why my mom put me in those sessions when she knows i do good without them"

"imagine being naturally smart" sunghoon spoke, "can't relate"

jake chuckled, leaning back in his chair, "you and yuyu are both smart"

yuna looked at him offended because she had no idea why he brought up her name, "hey don't bring me into this! also, who said i was stupid?" yuna scoffed

"you" jake pointed at her, "you literally say it everyday"

"well...you're not supposed to agree with me" yuna rolled her eyes and jake laughed in response causing the other two to laugh as well

♡

yuna waited at the entrance at the front of the school. it was raining and she didn't have an umbrella with her

her house wasn't far but she didn't want to walk, well run, in the rain and get her clothes wet along with risking getting sick

yuna was one of the last students to leave and she sighed as she saw students leave with their umbrellas

yuna quickly put the hood of hoodie on and just as she was about to take off, a hand gripped her wrist, keeping her in place. she looked back and saw jake standing there, "hey star"

he let go of her wrist and yuna looked at him, "hey jake. what are you doing here?"

he looked at the rain and then back at yuna, "i saw it was raining and well i wasn't going to let you walk alone in the rain"

jake took a few more steps and stepped outside, opening his umbrella and placing it above him

he looked at yuna and held out his hand with a smile on his face, "let's go" she grinned at him before walking towards him and holding onto his hand, going under the umbrella with him.

the two then began walking, "oh..but don't you have a meeting?"

"i told them i was busy" he replied, "i rather walk home with you then go to the meeting right now"

yuna could feel herself getting red and she quickly covered her ears with her hair, hiding the redness of them.

jake then noticed that she was partially not under the umbrella. the boy removed his hand from hers and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, pulling her closer to him

she flinched from this contact and looked at him, "what are you doing?" she asked, flustered

"you're getting wet-" yuna widened her eyes at his statement and he quickly took it back, "i-i m-mean like the water is getting on your clothes. you know what i mean"

yuna just nodded and bit her lip to contain the smile that wanted to show on her face in that moment
