The previous confrontation still haunt the campus. From every building to each corner Hyrein and Can are the major player in every story told.
It has been almost a week now since that incident but the stories, murmurs and gossips are still alive making it seems like that the whole thing happened yesterday.

While Can is busy with his classes, Tin took the opportunity he has to deal and confront the root cause of the adversary. It is Hyrein of course.
With a determined heart and undying resolve Tin walk the campus grounds looking for the person he seek. As much as possible he don't want to see him ever again yet he knows that with what happen he needs to take action. Not only to protect Can but also to make sure that it will not at any circumstance happen again.
After some real deal of time looking for Hyrein he spotted him at last. Sitting with his circle of select few friends he laugh and enjoy their company.
Tin make his way over to where he is seated.

"Hyrein." He called out with his voice is cold and flat. He look down a bit since he is tall and they are sitting.

It ring a bell to Hyrein when he heard the voice that is calling out his name. For some reason he felt happy. It's been a year since Tin has last spoken to him on his on accord in exception from the last time wherein Hyrein is the one who initiated the conversation.
With a bright smile, he look up at Tin.

"Tin! Hello, it's so nice to see you." Hyrein greeted him.

The other people on the table which of course are Hyrein's friends are awestruck with Tin's mere presence. They cannot hide their delight, a Greek godlike is right in front of them and they have front seat privilege of enjoying the view.

"Leave Can alone." Tin said without even greeting Hyrein back. "I'm only gonna say this once, you better keep your distance at Can." His voice is firm, commanding and threatening.

"I have not done anything to that brat! In fact, he is the one who assaulted me first." Hyrein said. "Are you unaware of what has been circulating around? He is the one who hit me first! Yet here you are protecting him. I am so disappointed with you Tin." He said then take a sip on his cup.

"Don't take me for a fool Hyrein, I know you and your dirty tactics." Tin said breaking him. "Who knows, maybe you and your friends are the one behind the inappropriate gossip against Can. It is in your nature after all, if you know what I mean backstabbing is one of your talents." Tin said this before leaving Hyrein and his friends.

After settling his business with Hyrein, he quickly speed up to where Can's classroom is. He texted Bran and Chase that he intend to wait until Can finishes his class for the day.

Tin is patiently waiting outside the room.
His mere presence is enough to attract attention. Plus, everyone knows that Tin is not a familiar sight on the area but it actually change in the last few days wherein Tin is almost at the area whenever he has free time.
Can is busy taking some notes when he heard his phone beep. He pick his phone from his pocket and check who it is. After opening and reading the text he quickly glance outside.
A smile form on his lips.

"Why are you here?" Can texted back.

"Waiting for you. Let's go for a snack?" Tin replied.

Can did not respond on that last message instead he excuse himself and went outside to meet Tin personally. As soon as Can made it outside Tin rush towards him then he give him a tight hug.

"Hey! How is your day?" Tin said looking intimately at Can.

"So far so good. This is my last class for the day. How about you? What brings you all the way out here?" Can asked back.

"I am good for the rest of the day. I thought of us having snack since I am feeling a little bit starving." Tin replied. "I'll just wait for you in here." He continue.

Can just nod at him and went back inside. It will be another thirty more minutes until the class is over. From time to time he glance back outside checking out on Tin. He saw him playing or watching something on his phone he is not sure.

"He's not going anywhere Can! You have been checking on him for so many times in the last ten minutes." Darrell whined who sits next to Can. "He is too heels over head for you can't you see that?" He continued.

Can just shrugged and ignore the young royal's whining.

From the sidelines, Hyrein is secretly watching Tin. The sight of Tin waiting for Can is hurting him. Earlier when they are hugging each other it is too much for him to bare that he need to look away.

Can's last class for the day is officially over. He bid his goodbye to Darrell and hurriedly went to where Tin is waiting for him.
The two started walking towards the elevator shaft. Hyrein on the other hand went outside of his hiding place.

"Oh! Fancy seeing the two of you." Hyrein said faking out the coincidental meet up between the three of them.

Instead of stopping, Tin hold on Can's hand intertwining them. They continue walking totally ignoring Hyrein. The hallway is still filled with students that just like Can finished their respective classes.
Pissed off from being ignored Hyrein played dirty again.

"Tin! Did you not miss how we spend the nights together?" Hyrein said which made Tin stop so suddenly in his track. "I know it is a very challenging times for us because of that brat's lusting over you." He continue saying it out loud. The students who happened to be there clearly hear it.

Tin with his patience snapped cannot contain his anger.

"Stop your delusion Hyrein! There is no us in the first place." Tin said shouting at him. "Plus, it was you who tried to seduce me and not Can." He said stomping away with Can.

Murmurs started to fill the hallway where Hyrein is left behind. He is furious, very furious.

"What are you looking at!" He shouted at the students then he left as well.

Tin is raging. He is like a mad man right now.

"Tin, calm down." Can said as he hold firm on Tin's hand.

"That bitchy liar is way too much." Tin said still full of anger.

"I don't believe him. All I need to believe is you." Can said which makes Tin's face soften.

Tin did not respond instead he kiss Can on his forehead.

The two is unaware that Theo is watching them from behind. On the another angle another pair of eye is staring at them this time it is Chase who is suppose to be on his way to fetch some document.

After Tin kissed him on the forehead, he stare at Can bent over a little before giving him a kiss on the lips. Can tiptoed while his hands rest on Tin's shoulder for support.
