I Am Undying

"Though I expected nothing, I am still disappointed." Dana calmly said.

"What would you expect from Rin!? Ahahah!" Marjohn happily agreed with Dana.

Putting up an awkward smile, Rin had no choice but to take it.

Dana slowly stood up and went into the shelves of books, leaving both Rin and Marjohn alone. To worse it up, they are alone in the library.

In their age, most of the students still does not have a care about their studies. Library is something like a turf of some circle of friends.

When Dana was out of sight, Rin suddenly felt pain on his foot. He almost bit his lips out of surprise. He glance at Marjohn who was glaring at him.

"Heeyyyyy, Rin, would you shut up for a while and make yourself like you don't exist like you should've done from the start, okaayyyy~??" Marjohn ruthlessly smiled. Even a normal student not a delinquent can do this to Rin as it is one of the rules of the school: You can do anything to Rin.

It is an unspoken rule made by the students. In a sense, Rin is really popular. He is the ultimate bullied student in the school. Even the other bullied students can bully him without anybody stopping them.

Of course, Rin knew this and just nodded.

"But, if you'll do anything that will interrupt us then I will not be kind." His smile slowly turned into a from as he said this. A wolf that imitated the look of a sheep but still looked like a wolf bared its fangs in front of an ant.

Marjohn's glare made Rin turn his head to avoid that kind of an eye contact.

"You know what wil-"

"These books are a bit too heavy for a girl…" Dana came out of the maze of bookshelves, her voice interrupted Marjohn's continual harassment.

Marjohn immediately stood up and helped Dana carry the three books that she deemed to be heavy.

Rin made an unnoticed smile at the thought of Dana doing it intentionally. He was sure that she had no intention but it is not bad to think about it.

Dana sat with her ladylike movements. Marjohn joyingly placed the three books in front of her but Dana pushed it back to him and said, "That is for you. I will only give you the page numbers that you required. I believe that with your capability, you can get the grasp the part of the test that you didn't answered properly."

Marjohn accepted what Dana said without an argue. In fact, he is very happy since he was praised. I will show you that I have more than the capability to get this done easily – is what is inside Marjohn's mind.

Without asking, Dana already knew what Marjohn was lacking in the mock exam and gave the required pages.

After giving those pages, she turned to Rin and pat the seat of the chair beside her.

Rin's face made a curious look like he was asking "What?"

"What?!" Marjohn reacted.

"Hmm?" Dana looked at him with questioning eyes.

"Argh!" Marjohn grunted silently "No, nothing." He clenched his fists while his eyes then turned to Rin. His eyes seemed ready to kill Rin at any moment.

The atmosphere got very heavy but Dana was very indifferent to it. While Rin was so sensitive to it, he was feeling so unwell that soon he may collapse.

"Then." Dana then pat the seat of the chair once more with an inviting look.

Rin heavily gulped while beads of sweat started to pour slowly out of his pores. He was hurt with Dana's harsh words but was happy by what she said afterward. He was only hesitating because of the guy beside him. He remembered what Marjohn just said earlier. Having a lot of experience with Marjohn's being "unkind", he was getting really scared.

Because of fear, he wanted to deny Dana's offer by saying that he could do it himself but words won't come out of his mouth so he was forced to just shake his head.

When Dana was denied, she stood up, walked around the table, and sat beside Rin.

"Eh??" Rin thought he clearly denied her.

"If you have a problem changing seats then I could just trouble myself." Dana pulled out a notebook from her bag.

She totally mistood Rin but it was not actually her fault. Rin's answer was very vague.

"Here, these are all already simplified by me. I doubt that you can't learn from this." Dana leaned forward while pointing out what was necessary for him to understand but Rin's head was in haze and was not properly listening to what she was saying.

'Too close! Too close! Too close! She smells too good! Too close!' This was the only thing that was in Rin's head.

He was not focusing on the what Dana was saying but his eyes was on her herself.

Dana's smooth-looking straight black hair, her white redish skin, the cuteness of her face, her rosy lips, the sweet addictive fragrance around her, her long eyelashes, her clear brown eyes… all of it was observed by Rin and was quickly embedded on his mind.

"Hey."

Rin felt pain on his forearm. It is like someone is pinching him. When he looked at it, it really is someone pinching him.

"Are you listening?"

"Aw aw aw aw!" Rin rubbed his skin on his forearm. It immediately turned red.

'You pinched me to get my attention but why not hold back?' Rin complainly thought but when he saw Dana quietly staring at him, the pain immediately went away. He already forgave her.
