A Bully's Romance
Chapter 26

I looked back at them pathetically and blinked my eyes a few times. No success. Guanlin looked at me and nodded at Mark. So I had no other choice than to walk to Mark's table. I almost reached the table.

No no no.... I can't no... I can't do this. Okay Minjun, just... go back and act like nothing happened.

So I turned around to walk back to Guanlin and Jun. Instead, someone grabbed my wrist and dragged me towards the schoolyard.

"Mark, wait. Can you please let go of my wrist?" But instead of letting go, he tightened his grip.

"A-ah...", I winced because it hurt.

We reached the schoolyard and he finally let go. I rubbed my wrist, it was red. There was total silence between for the next two minutes. I lowered my head to avoid his eyes.

We then came to the point when Mark broke the silence: "a-about last time..."

"I know I understand, let's forget about it and go back to the bully and target relationship." I walked away.

"No.", Mark called, causing me to stop. I turned around and he was standing right in front of me.

"No, I can't and won't forget about what happened the other day."

I took a step back, but the clumsy Minjun tripped and fell backwards. Mark caught me. I blinked a few times and wanted to stand up and push him away. But then the words Guanlin said came to my mind again.

'Jin Minjun, you're the one here who's creating this whole awkwardness.'

So I didn't do anything.

"Be a bit more careful next time.", Mark smirked. It wasn't one of these mocking smirks he always gave me. It was a loving one. He helped me up and I blushed.

{Mark's POV}

I helped her up and her cheeks turned light pink. I couldn't help but smirk. No, it was actually a smile.

"You know... up until now, I haven't properly confessed to you yet..." Her lips caught my eyes, I held my breath and looked away.

No Mark, concentrate. Concentrate, concentrate on what you want to say.

I faced back to her again.

"I...", I sighed, "I've never done this before you know, confess to a girl that I like--" Minjun...
