Chereads / Deep Love (Boy's Love) / Chapter 2 - Touch

Chapter 2 - Touch

Yanjun shook his head and continued putting student's grade into his laptop. A few minutes later, he looked at the sandwich given by Yuze. He didn't even know his stomach was growling. Yanjun slowly opened the wrapper, then took a bite into the sandwich. The sandwich tasted not too bad. Although he wasn't a fan of tomato, he finished eating the sandwich. Yanjun wheeled himself out of his office. A few of the students greeted him, and he nodded at them.

Yuze was sitting on the bench beside a waterfall fountain behind the school building. Yanjun saw him in the distance and he felt his heart beating rapidly. Once Yuze turned around, Yanjun looked the other way and went to the school library. He didn't know why he kept on avoiding Yuze. After a while, Yuze packed up his books, then went to the library as well.

Yanjun was there to return a few books. A few minutes later, Yuze entered as well. Yanjun avoided Yuze once again, then wheeled the wheelchair to his right side. He found a quiet spot to read some books that he had picked out just a while ago. Yuze saw Professor Lu, and he immediately sat beside him.

"What are you reading, Professor Lu?" Yuze looked at Yanjun's books and his head turned around because it was all biology books. He pretended to read one of his books while looking at Professor Lu's side profile. Yuze remembered everything about Professor Lu. His handsome side profile, his sharp jawline, his stern eyes, and lack of a smile.

"Are you done looking at me?" Yanjun didn't even have to look at Yuze since he knew by his peripheral vision. Yuze hid behind the book and muttered, "How did he know?" Yanjun continued on reading while Yuze peeked at him once in a while. He couldn't stop looking at him.

"If you want the book, you can borrow it." Yanjun turned his wheelchair away from Yuze but before he can go any further, Yuze stopped him.

"Professor Lu, you got something on your face."

"Is it gone?" Yanjun asked him, but Yuze shook his head. "Here, let me do it."

Yuze touched Yanjun's beautiful face. His face was white and smooth, his eyes were too attractive. But then Yanjun grabbed his hand before he could go any further.

"Are you finished?" Yanjun's expression was stern and unimpressed.

"Y-Yes. It's finished." Yuze stuttered because he got nervous suddenly. Yanjun wheeled himself out of the library, since the tension in the library was too much for him. Yuze was disappointed in himself. What was I thinking? He thought about his action and he was too embarrassed to be even going to his class in the afternoon.

Yanjun went to the lecture hall alone, he thought about what happened in the library. He touched his face, then remembered Yuze's touch back in the library. He felt his entire face was burning up, so he grabbed a water bottle then drank almost half of it. One of the professors entered his lecture hall calling his name but it took him a while to answer.

"Professor Lu? Professor Lu?"

Yanjun turned around and apologized since he didn't know Professor Chen was calling him. Professor Chen smiled at him, "Professor Lu, do you have time after class?" Professor Chen Mina was also a biology professor. She's called the beauty queen by the students. Chen Mina had a crush on Professor Lu ever since he came to the school.

Yanjun adjusted his glasses, and rejected her.

"I'm busy this evening. I'm sorry." Yanjun looked at her without any expression in his eyes. Just then, Yuze was at the entrance waiting for Professor Chen to exit the door. He really didn't think Professor Lu would reject the school's beauty queen. Yuze remained quiet then entered the room after Chen Mina left the class.

Yanjun didn't look at him since he was preparing his afternoon advanced biology lecture materials. Yuze initially didn't want to take this class however, his father forced him to take this class since he wanted his son to become a doctor instead of a pianist. Since class haven't start yet, Yuze walked towards Yanjun again.

"Professor Lu, I saw that you rejected Professor Chen. Why did you reject her?"

Yanjun looked at Yuze and replied, "I'm not interested in her." He continued reviewing his materials while Yuze kept on asking questions, "Professor Lu, if you don't like her...Then, how about me?" Yanjun stopped reading and then suddenly, his heart started beating rapidly. He tightly gripped his papers then released it.

"Yuze, it's not appropriate. Please go back to your seat. Class will start soon."

Yuze stood there for a second and he decided to touch Yanjun's shoulder, "Professor Lu, I know you are feeling something for me. You don't need to say it, I know." Yanjun grabbed Yuze's hand tightly without letting it go. After several minutes, Yanjun looked away and replied, "Please go back to your seat. Students are coming in."
