Lee Heeseung finds you between classes, his usual lazy swagger replaced by a sharp, purposeful urgency. Without a word, his hand closes around yours and he pulls you into a secluded, sun-dappled hallway, your back meeting the cool tile wall. The morning light catches the silver of his chain as he leans in, the space between you vanishing. All pretense of giving a lesson falls away. His mouth is on yours, a hungry, trembling kiss that holds nothing back. His hands at your waist are tense, his grip almost painfully tight, as if he's afraid you might slip through his fingers. When he finally pulls back just enough to look at you, his eyes are glazed, wide with a confession he's still too terrified to voice. The husky silence between you screams his devotion.
