"And with this ends the final boys relay! The results will be announced at the end. Next Senior year three leg competitors get ready. You will be needed on the field in the next 5 minutes." The announcer announced and cheers filled the hall.
"NingNing your time to shine~" Yuan said as he gave Ning a thumbs up.
"Ning you will do fine, don't worry okay." Ling said as she flicked her forhead.
"Ouch! what a good way to wish good luck." Ning said as she rubbed her forhead.
.
"Ning let's go, it's time." Feng said he opened his jacket and drank some water.
"Okay" Ning said as she took a deep breath and opened her jacket.
She was about to walk away when suddenly she remembered something.
"Feng wait a second!" Ning said as she rummaged through her bag and took it thr tumbler Feng gave her.
.
She opened its lead and took a few sips of the tea that was Luke warm and kicked down the nervous balls in her stomach.
"Are you good now?" Feng asked as he smiled while looking at her face.
"Yes very much. Let's Go!" Ning said as she smiled ear to ear.
Feng scanned her face and then her legs and hands that were still with no sign of trembling.
.
"Okay" With that both of them reached to the field and for some reason they felt really out of place.
"...This is a competition..." Feng murmered as he looked at the ground while Ning played with her hair not really in mood to look around.
.
"Baby, you won't let me fall right?"
"Of course I won't! Just trust me." One of the pair talked while playing with their hands.
"So...if we win this we will start dating right."
"I don't know." Another blushing pair said.
.
"Tell me if you can't make it up to the end.."
"Why? Are you going to carry me?"
"Who knows maybe I can." Another pair looking at each other deeply said.
.
"...I feel like puking..." Ning said in a low voice while putting her colds hands on her face that was becoming red due to second hand embrasment.
"I do too." Feng said as he ran his hands through his hair.
.
"Eveyone pay attention and get ready on your track! The Senior three leg competition is about to begin, the non participants please leave the field and the participant tie your legs together." The announcer said and a refree came on the ground.
.
"Ning come a little closer." Feng said and Ning did as he said, the number of times they have come in such a close contact is enough to get used to it but for some reason it's not the same case for them.
There heart still beats hard with a single tiny contact and this was enough for them to lose thier sanity but they keep that storm inside their heart and pretend to be fine and calm.
.
With one matra ringing inside there head..
"(Don't let him/her know)"
"Okay kids are you ready? on your Mark get set and go!" The refree said and with a whistle the participants started moving forward.
.
"Ling, can you stop chewing your nails? It's distracting me!" Yuan said as he starched his scalp.
"Don't shout! I am worried and can you tell me why are there only love birds in the fields?" Ling said as she galred at him.
.
"How would I know that? And-- look both of them are leading the way!" Feng said as he turned her face towards the field.
"They really are! Ning Yuan go and win this game! You can do This!" Ling shouted form the stadium.
"Yes you two can do it! Leave those love birds behind and go build your own nest! I mean kingdom." Feng shouted on top of his lungs.
.
"Yuan you are going to die form the hands of those love birds if you don't shut up now. See how they are glaring at you." One of their classmates suggested.
.
"Who cares! I only said the truth."
"But guys you know our school has this myth...whoever takes part in the three leg race will end up together within a year. And see the other participants are more or less into each other so do you think Feng and Ning will be like that too?" Another girl with a drawing kit on her hand said as she drew the last few strokes on her picture and smiled.
.
"And honestly they look good together...like they are meant to be." She said again while showing them the picture she drew which consist of Ning and Feng arms around each other and reaching the final spot.
.
"And congratulations to the Arts team for winning the Three leg race!!" The announcer announced and eveyone looked at the ground were Ning was jumping in joy and Feng was looking at her with soft eyes.
.
"Peng just because everyone else in interested in each other doesn't mean that Feng and Ning will be too." A voice from behind them said.
"And even if they are who are we to pry on them?" The same girl with brown hair that reached her shoudlers, rosy white skin and lips with doe shaped light brown eyes wearing the same uniform as others said.
.
"She didn't mean it class captain and do you really need to be this mean as soon as you come ?" Ling said as she crossed her arms and rolled her eyes.
"Of course I have too afterall I am the class captain and Ling get rid of that highlight form your hair, Yuan no earing at school, Peng no chewing gums at school hours." She said while crossing her arms.
.
"Gu Wei you--"
"Ling!" Before Ling could say anything Ning came running from behind and hugged her tightly.
"Ning!"
.
"Ling I did it! See we won gold medals!! This is the first time I won a prize!! I am so happy!" Ning said as she smiled brightly.
"Congrats! I knew you can do it!"
"Ning Ning! Our lucky charm you saved my pockets and also our class honor." Yuan said as he patted her head.
.
"Ning not bad, huh~ We never knew you can jump and smile like this."
"Omo look are you feeling shy now."
"Ning, Congrats." Gu Wei said as she forwarded her hand.
"Huh? Gu Wei? Thanks!" Ning said as she smiled and shook her hands with her.
.
"Ning you forgot your certificate...Gu Wei?" Feng standing in between the two of them said and suddenly an awkward air surrounded the three.
.
"...Is this love triangle?" Yuan murmered as he looked at the three of them.
"No idea" Ling said totally uninterested.
"Sounds interesting" Peng said as she looked at the three of them.
